Left-wing activist and multimillionaire Corporate Media mogul Markos Moulitsas Zuniga, published an article in Daily Kos (which he owns) on Monday wishing death and poverty on workers who voted for Trump. Daily Kos purports to be a political weblog analyzing the news from a Liberal perspective. And as we've frequently seen during the post-Election weeks, modern Liberalism is essentially anti-Democratic, Elitist, corrupt, and thuggish.
Moulitsas' article is titled "Be Happy for Coal Miners Losing their Health Insurance: They're Getting Exactly what they Voted For." What this so-called populist is referring to is a proposed extension of Federal Benefits to retired coal miners, introduced by Senator Manchin of West Virginia as part of the Stopgap Spending Bill. Senator Manchin dropped the Bill's inclusion on the condition that the Senate consider it as a separate Bill and vote on it before recess. In other words, Manchin was simply employing a procedural tactic to draw attention to the Bill's urgency (the benefits are set expire on December 31st).
The reality then, is that the coal miners have not lost their benefits; will likely not lose them; and the Bill had nothing whatsoever to do with Trump. Obama already signed the Stopgap Spending Bill without the inclusion of Manchin's Amendment.
Nonetheless, Moulitsas wrings his hands with sadistic glee over the prospect that retired coal miners will lose healthcare and sink into dire poverty. Just read this abominable rant:
"Hilary Clinton won the election but a system designed to let a powerful minority override the will of the majority elected some a-----e. For now we have to deal with this b------t reality, and lots of good people will suffer serious consequences. But don't feel sorry for the ones who enabled this nightmare by voting for the incoming Trump-Putin Administration. For example, why should we weep for the retired coal miners who will now lose their health insurance thanks to the GOP majority---despite the best efforts of Democrats to change the outcome?"
Aside from the considerable level of fake news in the preceding quote, note the viciousness and lack of empathy the author displays. After preaching phony Cultural Marxist schmaltz for the last decade about compassion for the poor, he now tells his readers that poverty is exactly what people who didn't vote Democrat deserve. It gets worse; Moulitsas goes off on a full-blown Olbermann-style paroxysm of outrage:
"How sorry should we feel for this crowd? Coal country swung hard for Donald Trump, winning 70-80% in some of these counties." (apparently Moulitsas doesn't believe that the Russians hacked the voting machines there) "Don't weep for these coal miners, now abandoned by their GOP patrons. They are getting exactly the government that they voted for. Democrats can no longer offer unrequited love and cover for them. And isn't this what democracy is all about? They won the election! This is what they wanted!"
Moulitsas, a smug, pompous, self-appointed 'cultural elite' and his alleged unrequited love is exactly what the voters rejected. The voters saw Moulitsas, Olbermann, Colbert, and their media ilk for the servile toadies of the corrupt and decadent Clinton Machine that they are. A DNC machine which has done very little for the benefit of coal miners---except to cripple the coal industry and stuff funds into the pockets of political cronies operating bogus green energy and climate change scams.
And lest we forget also, most of the Democratic Party voters in coal country supported Senator Sanders during the primaries. When one's candidate is blatantly cheated out of nomination by the other candidate, it's hardly to be expected that the cheating candidate will get much support from the cheated voters. That's the extent of Moulitsas' unrequited love that the DNC displayed for their coal country constituents.
Daily Kos is yet another example of the yellow journalism and supermarket tabloid level reporting and writing into which the American Corporate Media has sunk.
Former Russian President Boris Yeltsin was one of the first world leaders to address the international crisis of declining families. The policies were greatly expanded during Vladimir Putin's first term and have resulted in a drastic turnaround in Russia. Among Putin's reforms were calling for a 'family ideal' of two parents and three children---backed by economic incentives and suppression of homosexual provocateurs.
Russia's program has been so successful that many countries---at least those outside of the effete West--- have begun to copy it. This Summer, the Ayatollah Khamenei issued a 16-point decree binding the Iranian Government to pursue an aggressive pro-family policy, especially to fight the 'epidemic' of divorce in Iran. It should be noted that what the Ayatollahs consider a divorce epidemic is a divorce rate 60% lower than the US. Yet our Elites consider Iran an unstable society and a threat to world peace.
China too has come to realize that stable families are the foundation of a stable society. Xi Jinping's Administration long ago abandoned the failed One Child Policy and has followed Russia's example of building family values. In 2015 Xi inaugurated a pilot program as an ancillary to the new pro-family laws under which Chinese citizens compete in an annual contest to select 'a model family' as an example to the nation. This year's winners were announced in Beijing yesterday.
Xinhua News reported that Xi greeted 300 families who were selected by provincial governors to participate. Xinhua reported that "The ceremony was the first of its kind to honor model families selected nationwide. The 300 model families were awarded for displaying characteristics of patriotism, observing the law, ethics, harmony, professional spirit, thrift, and commitment to public well-being." Han Shigou and his wife Zhang Ming, both elementary schoolteachers, won the prize.
In the awards speech, President Xi stated that, "People from all walks of life should work towards a new trend in Chinese family values: featuring love for the nation, their family, and for one another. Families should display a devotion to progress and kindness and exemplify mutual growth and sharing."
Xi also called upon the ruling Party to "increase efforts to enhance virtue and civility in Chinese families; as they are the most important foundation for national progress, development, and social harmony...Traditional family values have always been engraved on the minds and mixed with the blood of the Chinese people."
When was the last time an American President dared show his face at a ceremony celebrating traditional values---let alone actually sponsoring one? American politicians cower in fear of the Gay Mafia, Abortion Mills, Radical Feminists and other sexual anarchists who hate the traditional family and work for its overthrow. Not so Chinese Media and Academia, however.
Zhi Zhinfeng, a professor of law at China's Academy of Social Sciences told the Party newspaper The Global Times: "Nontraditional families such as single parents, empty-nesters, childless couples, and homosexuals threaten our national values. The Party has to bear responsibility for building and protecting traditional values. Party members and officials also need to reflect these high standards, otherwise laws are useless."
Once again, American policy-makers and cultural elites are obliged to bow down in disgraced shame before China. Our massive divorce rates, broken homes, drug-addiction and dysfunction among the young; our dumbed-down schools; and celebrations of perverted lifestyles make us look like moral pygmies in the shadow of China---a country which only a few years ago was experiencing severe demographic crises. Like Russia, China is on the way to turning things around. Hopefully, under the new Administration, America will turn things around as well.
Keith Olbermann, another Corporate Media shill, threw an on-air tantrum today after Trump announced pro-Russian businessman Rex Tillerson as Secretary of State. Like many of the MSM, Olbermann has no journalistic credentials nor any political experience, yet is considered an expert on policy by most of the Cultural Marxists. After Trump's electoral victory, Olbermann changed the name of his show to The Resistance. Olbermann is paid $2 million annually and has estimated net worth around $35 million. GQ, which hosts Olbermann's show, is a subsidiary of media conglomerate Advance Publications---owned by the Newhouse Family. Public records show that this group donated $33,000 to the DNC and donated heavily to the Clinton Campaign and state Democratic Party organizations and races.
Olbermann completely broke down on The Resistance, shaking and slobbering in front of a shocked audience, as he howled off a series of anti-Russian invectives. "We have lost a war with Russia!" Olbermann screamed, "We are no longer a sovereign nation! We are no longer a democracy! We are no longer a free people! We are the victims of a bloodless coup!"
This coup, according to sportscaster-turned-pundit Olbermann, is engineered by Russia. He calls upon Obama to declare a State of National Emergency because of the "traitorous indifference of the Republican Party and Donald J. Trump."
"The Attorney General must immediately appoint a Special Prosecutor to investigate what Donald Trump knew, when he knew it, and what, if any collusive links exist now or existed earlier between the Republican National Committee and the Russian Federation."
Olbermann's conspiracy theories and on-air hysterics rival those of Right-Wing extremists whom he's criticized; like Alex Jones, Michael Savage, or Richard Spencer. In fact, Olbermann goes even further and says---at the end of the broadcast---what sounds ominously like a call to some kind of violent action:
"Permitting Donald Trump to assume the Office of President reduces the chances that we will have any future elections! The nation and our freedoms hang by a thread; and the military apparatus of our country is about to be handed over to scum! Who are beholden to scum! Russian scum! As things are today, January 20th will not be an inauguration, but the end of the United States as an independent country! It will not be a peaceful change of power---it will be a usurpation! And the usurper has no validity, no credibility, no authority under the Constitution. Resist!"
Here we have yet another entitled elitist posing as a populist and going completely berserk when things don't go his way. Recall, too, that Olbermann is part of the same chorus of media degenerates who've been calling for censorship of Right-Wing sites---allegedly on the grounds that they incite paranoia and violence. It's likely that the Left sees no hypocrisy in supporting Olbermann.
Smug, self-appointed Elites like Olbermann and his bosses at Advance live in constant dread of exposure. The foreign media, the Internet, and sites like Wiki Leaks and Open Secrets are proving that these people are not the Master Race they've been presenting themselves to be---in fact, they're usually even proven to be below the average American in terms of intelligence and moral character.
Part of next year's presumed efforts to drain the swamp can include public activism against the media machine.
It is a common characteristic of religious cults to disparage mainstream religions as false. This is especially true of cults that falsely affect the outward trappings of some mainstream religion in an attempt to co-opt it.
The false Christianity being promoted in the Manosphere is rooted in an equally false philosophy called Game. Game has taken on the aspects of a cult; including a conversion process its disciples term 'taking the Red Pill' which, in turn, supposedly produces a superior type of male, the Alpha. (Women are considered an inferior form of humanity in their paradigms; and not infrequently, non-White males as well). The Red Pill Philosophy is really based more in Jungian Theory, Nietzschean Nihilism, and Evolutionary Psychology than anything religiously-based. Nonetheless, most Gamers have tried to cloak these pseudo-sciences with a veneer of Christianity, to give their abominable ideas an aura of legitimacy.
One the main bloggers of this cult, Dalrock, has published a series of articles this week, attacking several prominent Protestant ministers: accusing them of teaching the sinlessness of women and other blasphemies. As it happens, most of these pastors are engaged in family counseling and similar issues---which is completely understandable given the state of the American family. Dalrock expends most of his venom on the Rev. Russell Moore, head of the Southern Baptist Convention, for a lecture he gave in 2013. Rev. Moore was arguing---really more from Common Sense than from Scripture---that a woman withholding sex from her husband is probably dissatisfied with him in some way, and men would be well-advised to examine the cause.
Contrary to what the Gamers seem to imagine, women who are angry with the significant men in their lives typically don't display that anger by giving said man passionate sex. Women behaved this way long before Feminism; in spite of what the Red Pills believe. Female psychology is so constituted as to avoid direct confrontation and react in passive ways. One is reminded of a dialogue of an episode of television we reviewed earlier, Johnny Ringo. In that show, Ringo was trying to stop a woman from organizing a lynch-mob to kill the man in jail for murdering her father. Ringo's young protégée asked the Marshal how a woman could do something like this. Ringo replied: "Injustice works differently on a woman. When a woman's been hurt, she can't strap on a six-gun and call out her enemy, or settle it man-to-man with her fists like we can. They have to settle things in more roundabout ways."
Rev. Moore's advice, as quoted by Dalrock, was essentially getting men to understand that and not react passively themselves by having affairs or turning to pornography. Dalrock accuses Moore (and others who said similar things) of teaching that husbands who follow this advice are unbiblically submitting to the wives. He argues instead that women are obliged to suffer in silence, and in fact actually sin themselves by withholding sex.
How could Dalrock and the other Gamers actually reach such an absurd conclusion? Dalrock explains in the article Rubbing Body Parts Together:
"Pastors and theologians are most uncomfortable with the idea that husbands are entitled to sex in marriage." he quotes Game Cult blogger 'Deti' and then affirms: "This is true and is tangled up in the modern elevation of romance/emotion out of all proportion. The belief is that martial sex needs to be purified by romance, or it is unseemly. You can see this in both Mohler's (another Southern Baptist leader) and Moore's writings."
It's likely seen in these Baptist doctors' writings because the idea is not modern. "Speak to my sisters and tell them to love Christ and be satisfied with their husbands in both flesh and spirit. Exhort my brothers in the name of Jesus Christ that they love their wives even as Our Lord loved the Church." So said St. Ignatius of Antioch, who himself was a disciple of St. John the Apostle. Which indicates that the Early Christians believed quite firmly that love purified sex.
And what opinion did the same St. Ignatius hold of teachings like Dalrock's? "But it is fitting for both men and women who marry to form their union with the approval of their bishop, that their marriage may be according to God, and not after their own lust." So much for the modern notion promoted by the Game Cult, that sex is merely a physical act devoid of any emotional bonding.
In the same article, Dalrock even goes so far as to accuse Reverends Moore and Mohler of consecrating a wife's position in marriage to that of a high priestess! That the congress of the Southern Baptist Church would advocate such a heresy is so incredible that it really calls into question Dalrock's sanity. He bases that statement on Mohler's words that:
"A husband owes his wife the confidence, affection, and emotional support that would lead her to give herself freely in the act of sex."
What is doubly absurd about this is that the Game Cult teaches men to seduce women by faking these very attitudes. Yet, somehow, PUA behavior does not equate submission to women in their perverse logic. Somehow, it is only when the man is using or deceiving the woman for sex, is sex justified. And Dalrock argues that after marriage, it is simply an entitlement without the pretenses.
The Red Pill Cult, true to its actual origins in primitivist theories, is not a spiritual religion at all. In fact, it's a degenerative social movement, lowering human beings not only to pre-Christian, but even to pre-pagan levels. Dalrock and the other Gamers are preaching the morality of the ape; but nothing rising to the dignity of Man. Male apes don't care about female attitudes towards sex; civilized men do.
After four grueling years under the Al-Qaeda jackboot, and a nearly two-year long siege and battle, Syria's largest city was declared officially liberated. The last of the Terrorist forces trapped in the Southeast Redoubt send up the white flag about three hours ago. After terms of surrender were negotiated, Syrian General Said Saleh reported a successful conclusion of the battle to President Bashir Assad.
Assad announced the news to a jubilant population on SANA television before leaving for Aleppo to give his personal congratulations to his victorious troops. Reports state that both Aleppo residents and returning refugees are pouring into the streets in wild celebration and the city's mosques and churches are filled to capacity with grateful citizens.
The Battle of Aleppo was truly an international effort. Besides the Syrians, military forces from Iraq, Russia, China, Iran, Lebanon, Afghanistan, and Egypt all participated in the liberation. Russia, Iran, and the United Nations all coordinated one of the greatest humanitarian relief efforts in history against the backdrop of the Battle---in which several volunteers sacrificed their own lives.
Al-Qaeda reportedly surrender after their top commander was killed. Whether this happened because of the Allied advance or at the hands of his own mutinous troops is not yet known. Al-Qaeda and its affiliated groups lost an estimated 40,000 of their worldwide forces in Aleppo. While there are a few Al-Qaeda bands still at large in the rural districts of Western Syria, the Al-Qaeda scourge is effectively wiped out as a major threat in Syria.
The victory also foiled the various schemes of Western politicians and international criminals who have been using Al-Qaeda as a proxy for their activities.
The job though is far from over. Rebuilding the devastated city and repatriating scores of thousands of refugees will require another international effort. And ISIS---which began a feint against Palmyra this week, still holds Raqqa and Mosul and is still deeply entrenched in Deir Ezzur.
But for Aleppo, a city of over 2 million people, Christmas 2016 brought the greatest gift of all---the gift of freedom.
The Portland, Oregon metro area has become the America Left's epicenter of opposition to Democracy. Recently the scene of violent anti-Election and anti-Police riots, the Portland area public schools also made news earlier this year because of an unsuccessful effort to allow Satanists to recruit on campus. This time, the Portland suburb of Hillsboro is in the midst of a controversy after their school district ended a long tradition of Christmas decoration competition.
"We will not be holding a decorating contest this year." read an official memo. "You may still decorate your door or office if you like, but we ask that you be respectful and sensitive to the diverse perspectives and beliefs of our community and refrain from using religious-themed decorations or images like Santa Claus."
Recall that Portland is a community where violent, drug-addicted street bums are allowed to live on public sidewalks and school districts are required to promote homosexual acceptance. But images of Christmas are considered offensive to the effete Oregonians. Beth Graser, a District spokeswoman explained to station KGW reporters that "We had some staff members and visitors to our building indicate that they were uncomfortable and didn't feel welcome due to the overwhelming Christmas atmosphere that had been created."
How many of us actually remember an era in America when celebrating Christmas was not considered oppressive? "We need to create inclusive and welcoming spaces for all of our students and realize that many of them do not feel comfortable...being surrounded by imagery that is a direct affront to them." Graser stated.
It's almost pathetic to consider in what a gloomy world the typical 'Progressive' must live. It must be painful to exist in a milieu where everything traditional (i.e. normative) is seen as offensive and a cause for hatred and outrage. It's no wonder that the Portland Metro Area has the 4th highest national rate of substance abuse.
The Hillsboro School District itself is so incompetently administered that it managed to lose over $8 million despite statewide school spending of nearly $7 billion. Hillsboro teachers are the lowest-paid in the county, despite their superintendent being the 4th highest-paid public school administrator in Oregon. His five subordinate principals earn between $134,000 and $145,000 annually. So at least among the Portland Elites, there's no shortage of holiday cheer that goes all the way to the bank.
Needless to say, the degenerate residents in this area don't feel the least bit uncomfortable about stupidity like this being carried on in front of children. But this is what happens when deviants and drug addicts make local policy.
The Personal is not Political when it comes to Christmas. It's time not only to push Political Correctness out of our schools, but out of our holiday traditions as well.
Two weeks after a naturalized US citizen launched a Jihadist attack on the Ohio State University campus, students and faculty have begun emerging from their safe spaces and speaking out. The day of the attack, ESPN assured the Prozac Nation that no OSU football players were among the 11 people wounded, so rest of the country breathed an early sigh of relief.
The story hasn't gone away in Ohio, however. On November 30th, Stephanie Clemons-Thompson, an administrator in the OSU bureaucracy wrote on Facebook: "Abdul Razac Ali Artan was a 'Buckeye' a member of our family. If you think it is OK to celebrate his death and/or show a photo of his dead body and I see it on my timeline, I will unfriend you. I pray you find compassion for his life, troubled as it clearly was. Think of the pain that he must have been in to feel like his actions were the only solution. We must come together in this time of tragedy."
Thompson concludes with a Black Lives Matter hashtag. OSU English professor Pranav Jani, agreed: "Even compassion has been politicized, as we saw with the Diversity Officer who's being attacked for saying that we should show compassion for a fellow Buckeye who made tragic, tragic mistakes."
As a professor of English, Jani has published articles in publications such as Historical Materialism, The International Socialist Review, SALAAM Newsletter, The Marxist, and The Socialist Worker. With a resume like that, we can certainly conclude that none of Jani's course material is 'politicized', can't we?
Like Thompson, Jani is a huge supporter of BLM and spoke at a campus protest against minorities allegedly shot 'wrongfully' by police. Artan, the OSU attacker who made a 'tragic mistake' was included on the list of 'wrongful deaths'. Maryam Abidi, one of the protest leaders and Gender-Studies major at OSU explained: "The protest against police brutality extends to the guilty and innocent alike, because we know that no matter what the crime, justice and due process don't come from a cop's bullet."
Professor William Clark, who was actually injured in the attack, bitterly told CNN that he was refusing President Trump's offer to visit the victims. This, of course, didn't stop Clark from spouting off to the Corporate Media about what he would say.
"I've been a professor for 35 years," Clark pontificated, "And I know these issues, when students do these things, they are often for complex reasons. I'd like Trump to embrace a message that a vital component to our universities is their multidisciplinary, multinational, multi-everything character."
Clark was rammed by Artan's car while waiting outside a building that had been evacuated after the heating system broke down. Taxpayers cough up a whopping $6.2 billion annually to subject young minds to this kind of perverted thinking.
Which brings up an interesting issue. There is no indication that Artan was radicalized in his native Somalia, and actually did become a legal resident of the US. Where would we suppose he got his radical ideas? We do note that there's a fair number of radicalized faculty, staff, and student leadership at Ohio State, though.
Maybe our Government should take a little closer look at who's teaching our young people than who's immigrating into the country. It may be a fair question as to whether our colleges and high schools are costing our country---both economically and culturally---far more than immigration, legal or otherwise.
