The Racial Tragedies Caused For Blacks by the Left

Excerpted from Left Behind.

The failures of education are especially vivid among the children of the so-called inner city — polite code for black. The school troubles of this group may be attributed to an array of other problems, starting with a social services system that pays teenage girls to have babies without a father present in the house, and the inept parenting that follows in chaotic homes. You could argue that children produced in those conditions are so damaged by the time they get to first grade that they can’t recover.

Under Barack Obama’s Secretary of Education, Arne Duncan, a policy called “racial equity” was devised to mitigate the embarrassing problem of black students being suspended or disciplined disproportionately for atrocious behavior in the classroom. The “solution” to that was to just stop enforcing behavioral standards. The policy placed the blame for students’ disruptive behavior on the “cultural insensitivity” of the teachers and staff, and more generally on “white privilege.” The result, naturally, is greater chaos and dysfunction in the classroom. It is worth reading the piece by Katherine Kersten in City Journal on how this worked out in the St. Paul, Minnesota, district.

Arne Duncan was also responsible for mis-applying federal “Title Nine” law on college campuses (originally drawn up to balance funding of men’s and women’s sports), where it was used to promote the extra-legal prosecution of rape allegations in what amounted to campus kangaroo courts run by ideologues unconstrained by due process. This has produced a star chamber climate of persecution across the country, nicely in-step with the officially sanctioned coercions of the cultural Maoists who are destroying the intellectual life of American higher ed.

American schooling from kindergarten to post-doc has entered a phase of epic failure under the watch of several generations of federal policy “experts.” It suffers from several other illnesses than the ones I’ve already mentioned, namely the tragic over-centralization of school districts into giant schools; and the odious racketeering in loans that drives college education. Betsy DeVos has a lot of damage to undo engineered by her exquisitely qualified predecessors.

The Party of Permanent Apoplexy Allows a Non-Coastal In

The Party of Outrage
Democrats can barely keep up with their problems with Trump, raising some to wonder if their perpetual opposition is undermining a more focused message.

With nothing to offer but "hair on fire", screaming outrage, the Coastal Leftists allow a mid-lander into their midst. The problem is that being a mid-lander is no viewglass into the middle lands of the USA.

"Third-term Rep. Cheri Bustos, who was tapped by Pelosi to steer party messaging, represents a northwestern Illinois district full of blue-collar voters who narrowly voted for Trump over Hillary Clinton. Part of her elevation in the caucus is to bring a Midwestern sensibility to a party whose leadership is dominated by coastal legislators."

But as it happens, Bustos' hair is also on fire.

The rare sane approach gets lost in the shrill, deafening and constant braying.
[...]

"Craig Crawford, who advised former Virginia Sen. Jim Webb's short-lived presidential bid, says it is foolish for the party to participate in a tit for tat with Trump, who has left many a vocal opponent in the political graveyard.

"I'd leave him out of the message and appeal to his base with a meaningful jobs plan," Crawford says. "Don't take his bait. Braying donkeys only make noise. Democrats should present a shadow government agenda that gives working class Americans jobs and hope. Democrats should learn something from their futile efforts of the Reagan years, attacking the man instead of winning back his voter base with a positive message."

But that argument falls on the other extreme side of the ledger. For many Democrats, it would be irresponsible and immoral to simply give Trump a pass or tamp down their disapproval for political purposes. And if they fell on their swords – for instance, tamping down their invective on the wall to focus on the foreign ban – their base would be apoplectic.

The liberal wing of the party is showing itself to be as active and animated as it has since the Vietnam War, producing crowds that are garnering comparisons to the 2010 tea party movement that ushered in the Republican control of Congress.

One left-wing group, Campaign for America's Future, is pressuring Democrats in Congress to resist the notion of trying to work with Trump even where they see some daylight. Instead they are seeking even more pressure – through weekly Tuesday protests – to make it clear "the Trump agenda is not normal," according to a recent statement on its website.

After Sen. Chris Coons of Delaware said he believed Gorsuch deserved a hearing and an eventual vote, the liberal Progressive Change Campaign Committee emailed its 1 million members to rebuke him.

"There is zero appetite among the public for weakness from Democratic politicians," said Stephanie Taylor, the committee's co-founder.

Party strategists are still wrestling with how to harness all of this energy – and there's a realization, or at least an assumption, that eventually Trump will settle into a relatively more conventional posture, which will then present the party with a challenge of how to maintain the power of the initial opposition that flourished.

"I don't think this pace of outrage will sustain itself for four years," Murphy says. "It's natural for us to be more oppositional in the early days because the policy is coming fast and furious."

That doesn't eliminate the challenge in the near-term though. As Republicans on all levels begin to label the opposition as "obstructionists" and "crybabies," Democrats are huddling about how to weigh expressing their genuine principles while conducting smart politics. Given Trump's previous political success, there isn't a unified, obvious answer."

The Left has moved the Donks clear off the map of rationality. If there are enough rationals remaining in the nation, the Left will solidify them into a conservative bloc, and will have lost all momentum for a very long time.

The shrieking shows that Trump is right on the money, every day for two weeks now.

Inversion of Logic is Obama's Excuse For Loss of Democrat Power.

"President Obama has searched high and, increasingly, low, for the reasons he and Hillary Clinton lost the election. He has blamed Fox News, insufficient grass-roots campaigning by Hillary, “fake news”, and now has singled out Russian meddling for the loss of 194 of 207 counties that voted for him in either 2008 or 2012.

The suggestion is that Vladimir Putin wanted Trump to win; the liberal media has hinted darkly that the president-elect and his campaign team have “ties” to the Russian head of state.

As most Americans review Trump’s defense and security picks, the notion that the new administration will go easy on our adversaries – including Russia – is laughable. Retired General James Mattis, whom Trump has nominated to head Defense, has described Russia’s annexation of Crimea as a “severe” threat, one underestimated by the Obama White House. Mattis is not to be trifled with."

Let's see. With all of the MSM focused on Donald Trump while aligning themselves overtly with Hillary, the actual vetting of Hillary was a vacuum. The Wikileaks revelations - hacked by whoever - was the sole access to the truth about Hillary, the Democrats, and the sycophantic MSM.

Obama doesn't refer to the fact that the Wikileaks revelations provided rational balance to the information content available to voters. For Obama, that is bad, evil even. The progress of the Progressives has been stymied, and even revealed for what it is: common corruption. All due to pulling back the curtain.

Everything that Obama does in this last month will be his last, futile attempt to regain the appearance of validity of Progressive's moral imperatives and to strut the moral self-righteousness of HISOWNSELF in the media, a prerogative that he is rapidly losing.

It's interesting that after two elections as president, Obama still claims racism. He doesn't admit that racism is what got him elected, as Americans attempted to overcome prejudice, and voted black, for an unvetted, unknown, opaque man with impeccably creased pants. It's unfortunate that the first black president and the first female presidential candidate were such tokens, such flawed and corrupt intellects, such radical anti-Americans. Of all the blacks and females in the USA, these two were the representatives of the Democrat Party of Corruption and Hatred.

Even at the end, Obama fumes at the existence of public information revealing the undeniable underlying corruption which consumes and defines the Democrats and Leftists, including the MSM. Anger at the existence of the availability to the public of undeniable truth is an inversion of the logic of freedom. The Left will not ever relinquish that logical inversion, because that is what defines them.

We're Scientists! We Don't Need No Steeeenking Data!

Michael Mann, scientist: Data ‘increasingly unnecessary’ because ‘we can see climate change’

"Leading climate doomsayer Michael Mann recently downplayed the importance of climate change science, telling Democrats that data and models “increasingly are unnecessary” because the impact is obvious.

“Fundamentally, I’m a climate scientist and have spent much of my career with my head buried in climate-model output and observational climate data trying to tease out the signal of human-caused climate change,” Mr. Mann told the Democratic Platform Drafting Committee at a hearing.

“What is disconcerting to me and so many of my colleagues is that these tools that we’ve spent years developing increasingly are unnecessary because we can see climate change, the impacts of climate change, now, playing out in real time, on our television screens, in the 24-hour news cycle,” he said."

That used to be called "just weather". Mann needed to redefine terms for the Democrats, who now promise to prosecute "Climate Change Deniers". All dissent will become treason under Hillary. The revolution is just around the corner.

Black Lives Matter, On the White, Patriarchic, Right Wing Racist Shooter.

#BlackLivesMatter’s Cry For Help

BLM, on Orlando Shooter:

Despite the media’s framing of this as a terrorist attack, we are very clear that this terror is completely homegrown, born from the anti-Black white supremacy, patriarchy and homophobia of the conservative right and of those who would use religious extremism as a weapon to gain power for the few and take power from the rest. Those who seek to profit from our deaths hope we will forget who our real enemy is, and blame Muslim communities instead.

But we will never forget.

In case you didn’t notice, Omar Mateen, an Afghani-American radical gay Muslim registered as a Democrat, was really a right-wing, gay-hating, white conservative. No, Black Lives Matter isn’t crazy at all. Why would you say so? More:

Until these systems are defeated, until anti-Blackness no longer fuels anti-Muslim and anti-queer and trans bigotry, exploitation, and exclusion — we can never be truly free.

Nope, perfectly sane. By no means is this a foaming expectoration from a bunch of racist far-left crackpots.

If you should come upon a BLM insurrectionist, be prepared for complete insanity. Especially if you are white. They are black racists who are morally self-enabled to do virtually anything. And they receive no negative feedback from the Left, because they are a Victimhood Class which cannot be racist no matter how racist they behave.

Tolerance Of Absolutely Everything, Except Dissent

UnAmerican ESPN

What a joy it must be to be a leftist knucklehead. There's your opinion — and then there's hate. There's free speech for all — except those who disagree with you. There's tolerance for everyone — except the opposition. There's every kind of diversity — except diversity of thought.

It's a terrific system. You never have to prove your point, you only have to bask in the glow of your own unassailable virtue. You never have to explain how it is that, after decades of pure left-wing governance, Detroit is in ruins and Chicago is following after. You never have to try to understand why, after living under your wonderful non-racist left-wing policies, black people are deserting your cities in droves. You never have to confront the fact that after years of Feminism Triumphant, women are killing themselves in record numbers. Every time reality proves you wrong, all you have to do is point your finger at a conservative and make that noise Donald Sutherland makes at the end of Invasion of the Body Snatchers. Then you all congratulate each other on a job well done and go back to laying ruin to the world.

The Third Cultural Revolution

Chait: Victimhood culture explains what is happening at Emory

Jonathan Chait and these sociologists are recognizing this a little late. Sowell has published several books on the phenomenon. I have recognized it and written about it for several years. It is a form of cultural Marxist Class War, and that has been recognized for well over a century. The “Progressives” of the early 20th century were waging their own form of Marxist three-class warfare, with themselves as the messiahs, and women as a Primary Victimhood Class, but also with the white race as a Victimhood Class being persecuted by anti-racist Republicans, and free blacks. The result of that was Democrat Jim Crow laws for controlling the blacks, and birth control, which Margaret Sanger, creator of Planned Parenthood, also heavily focused on blacks, but also for liberating women from childbirth. Both efforts were population control of oppressor classes, in favor of victimhood classes. And eugenics was practiced on “defective” humans, in the form of sterilization, by official government actions.

Today the Left has completed its “long march through the institutions”.(1) In the early 20th century, Antonio Gramsci generalized Marxist economic three-class theory into “Cultural Hegemony” theory, meaning that the “Ruling Class” determines the type of culture that is forced upon the “Ruled Class”, for the benefit of the Ruled Class. The intellectuals, which include self-selected journalists, form into a class of activists against the culture imposed by the hegemonic ruling class.

Hence the three-class system according to Gramsci meant the “cultural hegemonic class”, the victims of the cultural hegemons, and the intellectual activist class working against the cultural hegemons.

When thinking about the ongoing culture war, it becomes useful to think in terms of a designated Victimhood Class, one which contains subclasses (women; blacks; homosexuals; miscellaneous sexual disordereds; Gaia; homeless; and others as it is advantageous). Because victims must be oppressed by someone, there is the Oppressor Class which is the status quo class, which is jealous of its hegemony and power. And there is the self-ordained, self-righteous Messiah Class consisting of those who wish to be known as the ultra-moral saviors of the Victimhood Class, although all their efforts produce is the status quo of the Victimhood Class, rather than their salvation.

Chait has reduced the work of two sociologist authors, Bradley Campbell and Jason Manning, regarding Microaggressions in the Victimhood Class War, into a condensed form. The essence is that the culture has moved from honor culture, through dignity culture, and into Victimhood.

Chait:

”In brief: We’re beginning a second transition of moral cultures. The first major transition happened in the 18th and 19th centuries when most Western societies moved away from cultures of honor (where people must earn honor and must therefore avenge insults on their own) to cultures of dignity in which people are assumed to have dignity and don’t need to earn it. They foreswear violence, turn to courts or administrative bodies to respond to major transgressions, and for minor transgressions they either ignore them or attempt to resolve them by social means. There’s no more dueling.

Campbell and Manning describe how this culture of dignity is now giving way to a new culture of victimhood in which people are encouraged to respond to even the slightest unintentional offense, as in an honor culture. But they must not obtain redress on their own; they must appeal for help to powerful others or administrative bodies, to whom they must make the case that they have been victimized. It is the very presence of such administrative bodies, within a culture that is highly egalitarian and diverse (i.e., many college campuses) that gives rise to intense efforts to identify oneself as a fragile and aggrieved victim. This is why we have seen the recent explosion of concerns about microaggressions, combined with demands for trigger warnings and safe spaces, that Greg Lukianoff and I wrote about in The Coddling of the American Mind.”

I think that the following point is key:

”When the victims publicize microaggressions they call attention to what they see as the deviant behavior of the offenders. In doing so they also call attention to their own victimization. Indeed, many ways of attracting the attention and sympathy of third parties emphasize or exacerbate the low status of the aggrieved. People portray themselves as oppressed by the powerful – as damaged, disadvantaged, and needy. [They describe such practices going back to ancient Rome and India] … But why emphasize one’s victimization? Certainly the distinction between offender and victim always has moral significance, lowering the offender’s moral status. In the settings such as those that generate microaggression catalogs, though, where offenders are oppressors and victims are the oppressed, it also raises the moral status of the victims. This only increases the incentive to publicize grievances, and it means aggrieved parties are especially likely to highlight their identity as victims, emphasizing their own suffering and innocence. Their adversaries are privileged and blameworthy, but they themselves are pitiable and blameless”
[…]
[Reminder: All text not in brackets is from Campbell, B., & Manning, J. (2014). Microaggression and moral cultures . Comparative sociology, 13, 692-726]
http://booksandjournals.brillonline.com/content/journals/10.1163/15691330-12341332

The two classes, Victimhood Class and Messiah Class, are absolutely drowning in self-righteousness. And in addition, the Victimhood Class is filled with moral cowards; they appeal to the Messiah Class to both affirm their Victimhood virtuousness, and to punish the Oppressor Class with restraints as well as very real punishment.

This leads naturally to creating the reverse Victimhood effect, where the Oppressor Class itself becomes the victim of the axis of Messiah/Victimhood Classes, and some attempt to claim their own Victimhood status and need for redress.

From the conclusion:

”What we are seeing in these controversies is the clash between dignity and victimhood, much as in earlier times there was a clash between honor and dignity…”

Hence, the dignity of ALL Lives is subsumed by the Victimhood dogma, “black lives (only) matter”, as Bernie Sanders discovered and was forced to capitulate to.

There is a very interesting point made by this commenter:

”Baldur Odensen on March 27, 2016 at 10:00 pm

For the long form you can see my reply below, but I suspect it has to do more with the increased number of females at university, where they are now the majority. Even in cultures of honor, females were expected to be hypersensitive to insults but were not expected to defend themselves – rather, they were expected to go get a guardian to do it for them – exactly as these students are doing.”

Observation: The government schooling system is dominated by females, with feminism and Title IX victimhood compensation by affirmative actions often mandated by the government. Modern students are preconditioned to the Victimhood disposition (as well as egalitarianism) well before entering the Leftist, Feminist universities.

Another observation: the tactics used by the Messiah Class to attack the Oppressor Class need further analysis, because they are frequently onerous and outside the realm of reason and compassion, much less human rights and free agency. The strategy of the Messiah Class is obvious: decimation or elimination of the Oppressor Class, and the perpetuation of the Victimhood Class dependency. In other words, the reversion to hegemonic rulership, but this time with the Leftist Messiah "Intellectual Class" in the Ruling seat of power.

This has been a serious truncation of Chait’s truncation of a sociological study. So obviously if you want more depth, go to the sources. I also recommend Thomas Sowell’s groundbreaking works, including the book, “Vision of the Anointed”. The self-anointed messiahs have to be in place and responsive in order to exploit the Victimhood Classes into a full-blown cultural revolution. I think that point should be emphasized. It is not so much that the Victimhood whiners exist; it is that the messianic class affirms them, affirms their virtue, and affirms the evilness of the Oppressor Class. Currently the Messiahs control schools and universities, journalism, much of social media, and the government. When they have full control of the FCC, they will control the internet. When they control Congress and the Supreme Court, they will produce thought crime laws to match those already in place in universities. And if tolerance of the Victimhood class, Islam, is mandated, then the risk of universal Sharia becomes realistic, and the Fourth Cultural Revolution will occur.

The Profit in Hatred

The screaming, shrieking hatred of their own open society is a career path for western Leftists in academia and politics:

Hating the West, Inc.

Victor Davis Hanson
Western elites and Third World critics both enjoy Western largesse.

"Paradoxes arise in attacking the West in general and the so-called European diaspora in particular. First, there is the obvious question: “Compared to what?” There are plenty of alternative cultures unstained by past Western imperialism and colonialism. Are their legacies more congenial to the present politically correct progressive agendas?

Do Islamic republics — Iran, for example — have a more reputable record of protecting gays or urban young women than does Europe or the United States? Is the venerable tradition of China more tolerant of religious and racial minorities? Would Michael Moore be permitted to be an edgier propagandist in Beijing? Are there safe spaces in Cuba or trigger warnings in Nicaragua?

In truth, the entire idea of self-criticism and self-reflection is mostly a Western aberration, not found elsewhere in the contemporary or indeed the ancient non-Western world. So critics of the West must resort to disparaging dead Westerners of a less liberal era even though there are plenty of present-day racist, homophobic, nativist, misogynist, and xenophobic cultures that would offer far easier targets for their wrath. Why pick on the fairly liberal Western societies of the past and ignore the thoroughly illiberal societies of the present?

Second, why did a million Africans and Middle Easterners freely seek out Europe last year, and why do hundreds of thousands of Mexicans and Central Americans crowd the southwestern American border? Japan is as affluent as Europe, and so is Singapore. Perhaps oil-rich Kuwait or Saudi Arabia might be preferable destinations? Why does immigration flow largely to the West? Its affluence is no longer a monopoly. But rather than affluence alone, is it respect for the individual, tolerance of dissent, and freedom of expression and religion that draw a Libyan or Pakistani toward London or Paris rather than Beijing or Mumbai? Immigration is the most concrete of all polls, in which millions vote not over their cell phones but with their feet.

Third, why do the fiercest critics of the Western and European tradition rush, like moths to a flame, to seek it out? Why do even radical Muslims migrate to largely Christian countries, while Christians do not relocate to Islamic societies? Collate what is taught in ethnic-studies classes with concurrent advocacy for illegal immigration, and the result is inevitably nonsense: By identity-politics logic, why would anyone advocate that indigenous peoples should live in a country with supposedly a long record of unfairness to indigenous peoples?

Should not immigration more logically flow in the opposite direction, as millions of those sickened by the Western pathologies seek superior models of racial and ethnic tolerance to the south, where there should be more economic opportunity for the Other? Should not ethnic-studies activists station themselves on the border, urging newcomers to turn around and avoid the racism, sexism, and classism endemic in El Norte? Should not a Chicano Studies professor urge deportation to spare illegal aliens the American ordeal that is the stuff of university seminars?

How bizarre to see the critics of capitalism line up for the newest iPhone or the most recent Air Jordan sneaker! Why would hard-left professors in California jet to Europe when they could drive to Oaxaca? Or drive Volvos when Civics are far cheaper and as reliable? Both the elites and the masses — cf. Facebook, video games, and fast food — seem to worship at the altar of capitalist excess. Ponder the progressive Obamas, whose vacations are regal in Louis XIV style; they enjoy, to the hilt, downright mean luxury — and yet seem never more proud of themselves than in the course of such indulgences. Is the logical trajectory of disdain for high-horse Christianity and typical-white-person investment really two weeks on Martha’s Vineyard?"

NYT Admits That US Government Social Engineering Backfired in Africa

U.S. Support of Gay Rights in Africa May Have Done More Harm Than Good

"Since 2012, the American government has put more than $700 million into supporting gay rights groups and causes globally. More than half of that money has focused on sub-Saharan Africa — just one indication of this continent’s importance to the new policy.

America’s money and public diplomacy have opened conversations and opportunities in societies where the subject was taboo just a few years ago. But they have also made gay men and lesbians more visible — and more vulnerable to harassment and violence, people on both sides of the gay rights issue contend. The American campaign has stirred misgivings among many African activists, who say they must rely on the West’s support despite often disagreeing with its strategies.

In Nigeria, Africa’s most populous nation, the final passage of the 2014 law against homosexuality — which makes same-sex relationships punishable by 14 years in prison and makes it a crime to organize or participate in any type of gay meeting — is widely regarded by both supporters and opponents of gay rights as a reaction to American pressure on Nigeria and other African nations to embrace gay rights."

Canada as a Staging Area For Terror

A Right to wage jihad elsewhere: Ten Thousand Tamil Tigers in Ottowa...

Canada and the Emerging Terror Threat From the North

"Worse, the Liberals have just returned to power in Ottawa, and Justin Trudeau, the country’s youthful new prime minister, has gone out of his way to court Muslim votes. Mr. Trudeau has often castigated alleged discrimination against Canadian Muslims, which he used to good effect in recent elections. His early actions in power, including pulling Canadian fighter-bombers out of the U.S.-led air campaign against the Islamic State, do not inspire confidence that he grasps the seriousness of the situation.

This, after all, is the politician who back in 2011 expressed his strong public disagreement with a Canadian government brochure aimed at immigrants that described honor killings as “barbaric.” That Mr. Trudeau does not take jihadism seriously is a view expressed by security professionals on both sides of the border. “We were underwater on the domestic terrorist threat even before this government,” explained a senior Canadian security official to me, “and now it’s certain to get worse. We’re already feeling pressure to back off from 24 Sussex,” a reference to the prime minister’s Ottawa residence.

Although CSIS only months ago expressed public concerns about a “sharp increase” in the number of Canadians going abroad to wage jihad, that seems to have changed now that Mr. Trudeau is in charge. Only weeks after the Liberals took over, accusations have appeared that CSIS is low-balling the numbers of jihadists in the country to make the new government look good."

Leftism is a corrosive force. It corrodes common sense with the use of idyllic utopian ideology which, even on its face, is anti-rational. It allows holding the door open to closed ideologies which are antithetical to western liberties and which have no interest in preserving western thought processes. And the Left fully agrees with that meta-narrative.

Multiculturalism Marches Onward

Remember: they are superior to non-Muslims, and thus they deserve more and better. Soon there will be more of them than natives. Germany will fall to yet another self-initiated foreign invasion. Leftists will be consumed by Islamist totalitarians more quickly than I had thought.

Czech doctor describes conditions in German hospital

"Really, you must watch this video where an independent Czech television host reads the letter in full. Or, if you prefer, read the transcription I made below which matches the English captions with slight corrections.

Eyewitness from a Munich hospital:

‘A friend in Prague has a friend, who, as a retired physician, had returned to work at a Munich area hospital where they needed an anaesthesiologist. I correspond with her and she forwarded me her email. Yesterday, at the hospital we had a meeting about how the situation here and at the other Munich hospitals is unsustainable. Clinics cannot handle emergencies, so they are starting to send everything to the hospitals.

Many Muslims are refusing treatment by female staff and, we, women, are refusing to go among those animals, especially from Africa. Relations between the staff and migrants are going from bad to worse. Since last weekend, migrants going to the hospitals must be accompanied by police with K-9 units.

Many migrants have AIDS, syphilis, open TB and many exotic diseases that we, in Europe, do not know how to treat them. If they receive a prescription in the pharmacy, they learn they have to pay cash. This leads to unbelievable outbursts, especially when it is about drugs for the children. They abandon the children with pharmacy staff with the words: “So, cure them here yourselves!” So the police are not just guarding the clinics and hospitals, but also large pharmacies.

Truly we said openly: Where are all those who had welcomed in front of TV cameras, with signs at train stations?! Yes, for now, the border has been closed, but a million of them are already here and we will definitely not be able to get rid of them.

Until now, the number of unemployed in Germany was 2.2 million. Now it will be at least 3.5 million. Most of these people are completely unemployable. A bare minimum of them have any education. What is more, their women usually do not work at all. I estimate that one in ten is pregnant. Hundreds of thousands of them have brought along infants and little kids under six, many emaciated and neglected. If this continues and German re-opens its borders, I’m going home to the Czech Republic. Nobody can keep me here in this situation, not even double the salary than at home. I went to Germany, not to Africa or the Middle East.

Even the professor who heads our department told us how sad it makes him to see the cleaning woman, who for 800 Euros cleans every day for years, and then meets young men in the hallways who just wait with their hand outstretched, want everything for free, and when they don’t get it they throw a fit.

I really don’t need this! But I’m afraid that if I return, that at some point it will be the same in the Czech Republic. If the Germans, with their nature cannot handle this, there in Czechia it would be total chaos. Nobody who has not come in contact with them has no idea what kind of animals they are, especially the ones from Africa, and how Muslims act superior to our staff, regarding their religious accommodation.

For now, the local hospital staff has not come down with the diseases they brought here, but, with so many hundreds of patients every day – this is just a question of time.

In a hospital near the Rhine, migrants attacked the staff with knives after they had handed over an 8-month-old on the brink of death, which they had dragged across half of Europe for three months. The child died in two days, despite having received top care at one of the best pediatric clinics in Germany. The physician had to undergo surgery and two nurses are laid up in the ICU. Nobody has been punished.

The local press is forbidden to write about it, so we know about it through email. What would have happened to a German if he had stabbed a doctor and nurses with a knife? Or if he had flung his own syphilis-infected urine into a nurse’s face and so threatened her with infection? At a minimum he’d go straight to jail and later to court. With these people – so far, nothing has happened.

And so I ask, where are all those greeters and receivers from the train stations? Sitting pretty at home, enjoying their non-profits and looking forward to more trains and their next batch of cash from acting like greeters at the stations. If it were up to me I would round up all these greeters and bring them here first to our hospital’s emergency ward, as attendants. Then, into one building with the migrants so they can look after them there themselves, without armed police, without police dogs who today are in every hospital here in Bavaria, and without medical help’

Social Justice, The Hugo Awards, and the War on Non-SJWs

The Hugo Awards: Why The #WaronNerds Is A War on Art

"What’s the difference between ISIS and social justice warriors? Well, one recruits its members from the most pathetic, disaffected, pathological members of society, claims to stand against shadowy conspiracies and bullying by the West, and destroys revered cultural institutions in fits of fanaticism.

The others are unhinged terrorists in the Middle East?

Over the past year, the social justice movement, which at one point had set itself up as an insurmountable cultural juggernaut, bent on remaking every art form or subculture in its own image, has degenerated into a farce. That farce reached new heights this past Saturday night, when the voters of the prestigious Hugo Awards, in a fit of ideologically-motivated pique, refused to give any awards at all in no less than five different categories – including Best Short Story and Best Novella. As context, the Hugos had only refused to offer an award in any category five times in the award’s 60 year history.

How The “Sad Puppies” Got Their Name

The reason was that a group of disaffected science fiction fans calling themselves collectively the “Sad Puppies” (along with a more radical submovement calling itself the “Rabid Puppies”) had actually forced the Hugos to include works on the voting ballot that were popular with fans, rather than simply works by authors with acceptable politics, or connections to the right publishing house.

“And the award goes to…no one?”

To put this in perspective, imagine that the Academy Awards voters had refused to pick a winner for “Best Director” or “Best Picture” at all because none of the films were about gay rights or personally endorsed by Harvey Weinstein. And imagine a very flummoxed presenter standing onstage at the Academy Awards having to say, “And the award goes to…no one?”

In the interest of evenhandedness, I should note that the Sad Puppies employed controversial tactics in trying to force consideration of authors and works they saw as underappreciated. Many claimed that the sort of organized voter drive employed by the Puppies ran contrary to the spirit of how the Hugo Awards were supposed to work."

I don't read science fiction: not enough time. I'd never heard of the Hugos until perhaps a year ago. But the Hugos have become a symbol, like Gettysburg or Dresden or Wounded Knee, a place of a battle which is significant in a place that is remote but historic in the context of the war. It is now clear that the SJWs did, in fact, control the award process and gave the awards to SJW-approved social justice works, only. And it is clear that they would destroy the award system to prevent outsiders from receiving one, because that is what they did. Note this from Phil Sandifer:

"Phil Sandifer @PhilSandifer

I admit to voting exclusively authors whose politics do not utterly repel me. #HugoAwards https://twitter.com/CraigMcDickles/status/635352940992073728 …
2:30 AM - 23 Aug 2015 "

And back to the article:

"I think it’s fair to say that if people like Sandifer are the people in charge of picking who gets to be the heir of Robert Heinlein or Ursula K. LeGuin, then the Sad Puppies had every reason to be concerned that quality had been eclipsed by politics. Sandifer, for his part, didn’t bother denying this, saying only that “Politics is a form of quality” before calling his critics “effing morons.”"

It's not just a war on art; it's a war on the politics of common sense and decency. I plan to make time to read some science fiction and vote next year. It's the least that I can do.

"The Social Justice Left Is A Schoolyard Bully

In the past, I have written extensively about the degree to which the Social Justice Left, rather like a schoolyard bully, began its fanatical crusade by targeting art forms and subcultures most often enjoyed by nerds, seeing them as a low status, easy target. If nerds are the “sad puppies,” then the Left saw them as proverbial Chihuahuas. Unfortunately, as the rise of the actual Sad Puppies and the year-long counter-crusade known as #Gamergate shows, these “puppies” are more like abused Dobermans that have been backed into a corner, and who are now mauling their tormentors. The Left’s #WaronNerds was supposed to be a blitzkrieg. It has become an overwhelming rout for those who instigated it.

However, perhaps due to war weariness or simple desire to avoid politics, many members of the gaming or Sci-Fi communities have tried to adopt a “why can’t we all just get along?” approach. They’ve tried to argue that the best solution is for their communities to have room for both social justice warriors and old school nerd traditionalists.

The Hugo Awards have shown us that this is impossible. The Social Justice Left will not be satisfied unless it has complete control over the spaces it infiltrates. If it cannot control a space, it will burn it down and salt the earth. If they could, they would probably torch every script of Shakespeare’s The Taming of the Shrew for being anti-feminist, every score of Mozart’s The Magic Flute for its unflattering depiction of its one mulatto character, every print of Apelles’ Venus Anadyomene for catering to the male gaze, and every other work that portrays, or was written by, someone with objectionable politics. This book burning bonfire of the vacuous would be large enough to be seen from space, if the satellites weren’t taken down for being too phallic."

The similarity between SJWs and ISIS' destruction of historic monuments is astounding.

Celebrating Rebellion Against Rationality

Satan worshipers drown women with milk in Planned Parenthood counter-protest

"Satan worshipers launched a counter-protest against pro-lifers outside the Detriot and Ferndale, Michigan Planned Parenthood locations Saturday.

Clad in black robes, members of the Satanic Temple of Detriot drenched bound women with milk, simulating water-boarding to "illustrate the theocratic agenda imposed upon female bodies." The milk symbolized breast milk, one of the protest organizers explained on Facebook.

The group attached a symbol of their temple to the American flag and held up a sign that read, "America is not a theocracy. End forced motherhood."

At one point during the protest, a man claiming to be a sheriff unsuccessfully attempted to move the Satan worshippers along.

Members of the Satanic Temple drew inspiration for their "political theatre" from the nationwide anti-Planned Parenthood protests Saturday. Tens of thousands showed up to protest Planned Parenthood at over 300 locations across the country after a series of undercover videos revealed the abortion giant was harvesting and selling fetal organs and tissue.

The pro-life protesters hope to end Federal taxpayer funding of Planned Parenthood, which currently receives over half a billion dollars per year. Michigan state senators, some of whom appeared at the protests Saturday, have launched their own bill to defund the organization.

"The Satanic Temple strongly opposes the promotion of misinformation and believes that all people are entitled to make informed decisions about their health, family and future without coercion," says the group's web site. "We consider our action a form of worship; the rejection of tyranny is an affirmation of selfhood. So long as perverted theocratic systems of power attempt to manipulate our communities and distort truths for political gain, we will rebel."

Satan worshipers believe that "Satan is representative of the eternal rebel, enlightened inquiry and personal freedom," proclaims the Satanic Temple's web site."

Rebellion for the sake of having rebelled is irrational. Declaring "health, family... personal freedom" while ignoring the killing of a human, is irrational. Declaring the killing to be moral, and the prevention of the killing to be tyranny is irrational. Declaring "enlightened inquiry" and the philosophy of perpetual rebellion in the same sentence is irrational.

Satanists believe that there is a deity, but that they are smarter, kinder and better than the deity. Their proof of that is their irrational creed. If the deity created a rational universe, they are obligated to rebel against it.

Fake Woman Threatens Ben Shapiro With Bodily Harm On TV

The Left Embraces the Logic of Fascism

The threat occurs at 5:35 into the video, but the ramp up is worth watching.



The very act grabbing and threatening physical harm is a specific refutation of the "femaleness" of the fake woman. The entire panel, save Shapiro, is highly engaged in the narrative of "your words are violence; my violence is justified by your words". No one on the panel objects to the threat. As Klavan points out, that is the logic of fascism and bullies:

"The logic of fascism is this: “Your X constitute[s] an act of violence, so I’m justified in using violence against you.” For X, you can fill in just about anything except actual violence. Some of the more popular choices are: “Words; Opinions; Positions; Race; Presence; Borders; Jewishness.” Once you equate any of these things — anything — with violence, once you feel justified in committing violence in response, your actual positions no longer matter. You’re a thug. You’re a fascist. You’re a tyrant, petty or otherwise. You no longer have a place at the discussion table."

I think that it is more general than merely fascism. It is Progressivism, which in its current form includes all totalitarianism in the spectrum from from fascism to Islamism. That includes the Marxist/Stalinists culture reformers who are indiscernable from National Socialists in their methodology. Cultural Bolshevism is in full play in the MSM.

Shapiro maintained his composure despite the threat from the much larger man-woman. The "gender overrides genetics" issue being defended loudly orally was completely falsified by the threat of the man in woman's clothes who behaved as a large male bully behaves, not a woman. Few if any women get in a man's face and confidently promise to "send him home in an ambulance".

From this it might be concluded that the gender-sex disconnect is actually in the man-woman's brain: he wants to be a she, but he still acts like a he. So his actions behave genetically (male), while his emotional preference is to be female. Something in the brain (or mind) is incompatible with something else in the brain. If this disconnect is genetic, then it is a mutation of a sort which is of a devolving nature. It cannot convey procreative benefits. From an evolutionary standpoint the mutation is deleterious and under normal circumstances it would be deselected.

The major fascist/socialist/progressive movements of the past century have taken the opposite position on such mutations: they opted to eliminate them by force: legal force. Now the Progressive/socialist/SJW movements endorse these mutations to the point of threats of violence upon those who support everything previously considered normal. The mere act of refusal to accept abnormality as normal is enough to invite threats of violence or legal actions upon oneself. This will get worse before it gets better, if it ever gets better.

But the ramp up to the overt threat of physical damage to Shapiro is interesting as well. From the "black perspective", Jenner is seen as "privileged" and therefore is an obscene cultural icon which discriminates against poor black trannies who are unprivileged. Jenner is white and wealthy; therefore he is irredeemably in the Oppressor Class from the black Victimhood view. There is no end to the Victimhood pleading in the culture war of today, including the denigration of one Victimhood class by another Victimhood Class. As always, the socialistas eat themselves.

Shapiro is both right and wrong: the fake woman-man cannot be a woman, no matter how threatening he is to critics. He is still XY, still heavy in testosterone, and unless surgically modified, still has male genitalia. But part of his/her brain is disconnected from that reality; it believes itself to be female when the reality is that it is in a male body with male behaviors. The actual reality is that this indicates that there is an abnormality, which if genetic, is a deleterious mutation.

But one may not speak that truth.

If the disconnect is in the mind, then it is an emotional defect which is very likely correctable.

But one may not speak that truth, either.

It's no secret why it is that Leftists become irate when they hear the truths that may not be spoken: the Leftist narrative is sacred; contradicting the Leftist narrative is therefore evil, dangerous, heretical, and cannot be allowed into the light of day. To violate the narrative is to "go home in an ambulance".

Here's What Happens in Today's World When You Assert Innocent Until Proven Guilty

What Cecil the Lion Tells Us About America

"Now, Dr. Palmer wasn't the only one getting death threats, but so was I. And this of course, bathed in an endless list of brilliant and cogent arguments presented by the YouTube community about me "being a dumbass" or "a stupid fucker" and other arguments of intelligence, thought, and ponderance proving the quality of education the Millennial generation is receiving in college. But it wasn't the death threats or names that forced me to pull the video (that comes with the territory), it was when they started posting the private data of Dr. Palmer that I now had a legal risk. And so unfortunately the video had to come down.

Still, we don't need the video to realize a very important and vital lesson about the mental faculties of your average American. And that lesson is they are no longer capable of logic, reason, empiricism or sanity. Worse, they're so selfish and narcissistic, they happily put their emotions over principles and the rights of others. With no proof (at that point in time) that Dr. Palmer was guilty of violating any law people were already threatening to kill him, ruin his career, and ruin his life. Some were so far gone they said they didn't care about the legality of his kill, they just thought he should be punished for hunting. And it is this principleless, amoral, mindless mob who put their emotions over, not just an individual's rights, but reality, facts, and truth that not only makes it difficult for the legal system to mete out justice, but is undermining our respective societies today.

The real story is not that poor Cecil was tragically shot. It's that western civilization, specifically the younger generations, have lost their collective minds and do not have the mental faculties to be adults, let alone adults in the free world. They are effectively zombies. And there is no reasoning with them."

Well, they move faster than zombies when they attack.

And there's this:

In Memory Of Cecil The Lion

"By now you have learned about the outrage geared toward a particular dentist from Minnesota who shot a lion in Zimbabwe. The lion even had a name, Cecil. There are many comments from leftist websites and twitter feeds where the dentist is receiving death threats. Death threats for shooting a lion…a lion who had a cute name. And here I thought leftists didn’t believe in the death penalty. Who knew? Weird how many of these leftists are outraged over a lion being shot, yet don’t say as much as “boo” about baby parts being sold to PP.

Here is my tribute to Cecil the lion and wild animals everywhere.

Here is Lippy the Lion just doing what lions do."

Minority Wars and the Future of Progressivism

Minority Wars:
Why The Next Ten Years Will Set Everyone Against Everyone

"Since the 1970s, social psychologists have been aware that emphasising differences between groups leads to mistrust and hostility. In a series of landmark experiments, the psychologist Henri Tajfel found that even wearing different-coloured shirts was enough for groups to begin displaying signs of mistrust.

So guess what happens when you tell everyone that their worth, their ability, their right to speak on certain subjects and – shudder – their “privilege” is based on what they were born with, rather than any choices they’ve made or who they are?

It’s possible that feminists mistrust the likes of O’Malley and Sanders because they’re male. Or gay progressives mistrust them because they’re straight. Or trans activists mistrust them because they’re cis.

This is what the future of progressivism looks like: blacks fighting gays fighting lesbians fighting trans fighting everyone else. It’s the iron law of victimhood-driven identity politics. Someone has to win, and everyone else has to lose.

Identity politics is universally attractive because it enables failures and weaknesses to be spun as the products of oppression and historical injustice. But for legacy castes, it can be humiliating and deeply unfair. Take MTV’s White People, for instance: an hour of television designed to produce discomfort in those with the wrong skin colour.

Safe to say, it’ll be a while before we see Black People on our screens.

But it also pits minority group against minority group. If the last ten years in the public square were defined by women ridiculing, criticising and demeaning men, the next ten are going to be even more depressing, and even more socially divisive. Welcome to the era of Minority Wars."

More specifically Minority Class Wars.

"It sounds laughably ironic, but the modern progressive movement has argued itself into a position where people can be discriminated against on the basis of gender, skin colour and orientation."

Don't forget those Leftist favorite: anti-semitism; pro-Islam. Anti-Christian; Pro-Atheist. Anti-pro-responsibility; pro-killing-your-progeny.

"That’s why you hear dismissive and in some cases even vituperative comments about “straight white males” in the media today: men are being ridiculed for things they cannot change about themselves. And it’s the political left doing the discrimination.

The future of the progressive movement will be akin to the nightmarish community of grievance-bloggers on Tumblr, where minorities, both real and imagined, engage in an endless competition for supreme victimhood status. You can already see it happening on social media and in spats between celebrities, such as this week’s hair-pulling contest between Taylor Swift, Nicki Minaj, Rihanna and Katy Perry.

Taylor Swift has made the mistake of being white, so other white middle-class people pretend to hate her as a form of virtue-signalling. They’re telling the world what kind, sensitive, racially-aware and hip people they are by slamming Swift, and everyone is desperate to get in on the act.

Gawker, The Guardian and The Atlantic have already turned on her with racially-charged allegations – not forgetting to point out she’s a “bad feminist” for having the temerity to disagree with another woman, especially a black one.

White guilt and the synthetic outrage of Twitter mobs is harnessed by these publications for fury clicks. What’s really happening is that the self-described social justice icons of our generation are driving people apart and pitting minority against minority for profit and for their own twisted amusement.

The consequences for Left-wing politicians and media figures to the new Minority Wars will be disastrous. Ordinary people know this is a cruel spectacle cooked up by bored, spoilt, rich white middle-class bloggers in New York, and they see the damage it does to relations between ordinary blacks, gays and transsexuals".

There's much more at the LINK.

One of the most interesting is the march of Swedish homosexuals through a Muslim neighborhood: can you guess which Victimhood Class gets trashed? Does it matter? Of course not. What matters to the individual Victimhood Tribe is just themselves, and no opposition, even from any other Progressive Victimhood Designation, has any moral claim greater than theirs, especially to oppose theirs, much less to surpass or supersede theirs.

Individual false morals can wind up no other way. Righteous indignation of the self-endowed, self-anointed morally elite "progressives" consumes them, and renders them hate machines. They do not "progress"; they have regressed back into war societies based on tribal loyalties.

UPDATE:
Jon Stewart doesn't like his white privilege questioned... by his token black staffer.

SHOOT REPUBLICANS” Says Former Carter Staffer

I have my doubts that this guy could find which end of gun the bullets come out.

"“Republicans and conservatives are the enemy. They are expendable. They will be targets in the Revolution when it comes” writes Roland Windsor Vincent, in a recent post on his blog, Army Of The Revolution.

The entry, entitled “Protect Animals And The Environment. Shoot Republicans“, centers around animal rights and how “active Republican and conservatives voters are enabling the Animal Holocaust” and “If we were to start shooting Republicans, we would likely not harm a single friend of animals or the environment.”

His article ends with:

I mention Republicans and conservatives, but the enemy is all in the human race who do not care.

In my view, the animals need a massive depopulation of the human race.

It may come in revolution, in climate disasters, in pandemics. But it must come.

The Earth cannot survive the human race, which for all practical purposes is a parasitic life form which annihilates other species, pollutes the air and oceans, and is responsible for climate change and the next mass extinction of hundreds of thousands of species.

If it were up to me, we’d start by eliminating Republicans."

And that ends today's message on the New Tolerance, from a Carter Era Democrat.
