Today's Media Freak-Out
I'm taking the day partly off. Because of my paisano, Chris.
But I'll do a few (weak) posts. The movie this video comes from showed a well-dressed man going into a southern Christian church and murdering about 40 Christian church-goers. The movie suggested that they were deserving victims because they didn't support the LGBT agenda. Now someone does a silly remix of Trump shooting up the church -- and this time, the church-goers are the big machers in the Church of Fake News -- and now it's very dangerous and something we must condemn. Was it not dangerous when it was first shown? Or is killing Christians an idea with some merit?5. As much as I hate to post this, given how much people are talking about this story, and that it involves the president's club, his supporters, and an organization that supports him, here's the video in question: pic.twitter.com/qqtllitsIP

Also you’d be screaming bloody murder if something like this was shown at an Adam Schiff or Obama event. So please for God’s sake just stop. This video is disgusting and disturbing and any human with any moral clarity sees that. https://t.co/3jU14QUnDQ
— Meghan McCain (@MeghanMcCain) October 14, 2019
If the video was of Biden shooting a bunch of MAGA types in a church, I'm sure the "lighten up, it's a video" crowd would hold the same position.

But I think the faux Westboro massacre sated them long enough that they didn't notice. Plus, the bad guy was the one who killed them, so it was presented as a villainous act. Not that anyone seemed particularly upset by it all.
Kingsmen was to me a film where they took neat ideas and then kept going just one step too far, like the Farrelly brothers kept doing. This is great, now how can we go too far and turn it into something awful?

My apologies for Kurt. He's new, and he means well. The office has him filling in for me now and again so I can concentrate on my one-act play.
(My play depicts Trump as a gangster NAZI in Wisconsin. Bret Favre may appear in a cameo role on opening night that's my hope, anyway. Poor guy. He still seems so, I do'nt know, desperate.)
My apologies for myself as well. Because of the play, my trolling has been somewhat below standard lately. I really enjoy antagonizing you all. Not to make excuses, the script is rather fluid, and it's hard to keep current.
Anyway, your all STUPID for supporting Trump!! And someone will talk to Kurt.

And, conversely, we'd be outraged and infuriated.
Remind me about the freakout the leftists had when Griffin held up a severed head that was supposed to be trump's.
On the other hand, people on the right were very unhappy and raised a stink, but are giggling about this.
I don't like inconsistency on either side. If something is distasteful and wrong then it is regardless of the political target.

Also from that first clip is something that's, to me, exculpatory in a weird way. Zucker firmly believes his bullshyt. I thought those people knew perfectly well they were making things up and they were deliberately lying through their teeth, but he's honestly deluded. He thinks he's on a mission to save America.

The point is to prove it, not introduce the idea.
Just like the DNC emails posted by Wikileaks, it's taking what we assume to be true and confirming that it is true, definitely NOT a "conspiracy theory."
Let Zucker and Stelter try to call this a conspiracy theory after we've heard them say this stuff in meetings, in the CNN hallway. Plausible deniability status: GONE!

This is not an obscure scene from some obscure movie. Not to mention the meme has been around for over a year.
I'm so sick of all the over wrought hand wringing. It's worse because I do believe that the people mean it. They are very upset indeed that the press would ever be treated the way the plebes are treated.
I think I've mentioned before that in 2009 (it has to have been then to do the time frames involved), the BFF and I went to see a production of Macbeth. This was up in Canuckistan and was at a prestigious Shakespeare festival. Lady Macbeth was played by a black woman who was done up as Michelle Obama (the mismash of time frames and costumes was the least of that production's problem). It bothered me not so much because HOW DARE YOU as it was because it was so pointless. Michelle Obama is many things, but Lady Macbeth is not one of them.
Now, if it had been Hillary, I would have bought it completely.
My point, and I do have one, is that it never occurred to be to be outraged at that depiction of Lady Macbeth. It just made me roll my eyes for how ridiculous it was.

I was disgusted and revolted by a video that shows the President shooting up a room full of law-abiding journalists apparently for no other reason other than the fact that they often ask him tough, probing questions.
Now some of his supporters might find this video amusing, but it is anything but amusing. It is repulsive and vulgar and I implore the President to denounce this video.
Not doing so will send the wrong message--that it's fine to harm those with whom we disagree.

Yes, its edited. EVERYTHING is edited. Jake Tapper always uses edited videos as well. They use that word as if its a criticism or dismisses it.
Plus, Veritas always releases the entire video unedited for people to look at, so they can see it in context as well.
But the left always responds the same: edited! Selective! Out of context! Misleading!
As if "I'm hacking up this baby to sell the parts hee hee, this one is still alive" somehow has a context that isn't horrific and ghoulish.

Ace writes about this type of shit a lot but I think it's because Jonah is a marginal member of his social caste, but the thing at marginalizes him is also the way he makes his living. But his social caste has decided at rigid adherence to their beliefs is the only acceptable way to remain a member. So Jonah is fucked, he has to signal to his peers that he is in fact one of them but still find a way to make money off the deplorables. It's gotten so bad for him and cuckboy david french they're striking out on their own from NRO (and not by choice). That's a big check to give up. Trump fucked him, he's forcing the hangers on of the ruling class to choose sides and it's exposing the grift.

THEN there was a huge influx of Italian immigrants into the large northern industrial cities, and Italian Americans became a group that was highly courted by local politicians, and Columbus was resurrected as "their" symbol, complete with parades and statues and everything. So it's safe to say that his memory has *always* been political, right from the start.

Digs right to the core of the "comedy is subjective" idea.
I found the scene great in context. I think it's one of the reasons the Kingsman movies don't have wider appeal. Not everyone loves the over-the-topness of the films that they embrace so fully.
I call it anarchic, and I revel in it. Though I fully realize that it's at least partially a taste thing.

Can't these people muster enough votes in Congress to get a declaration of war? Since it is so bad that Trump is pulling our troops out. May even be a bipartisan declaration.

Better, as the Pentagon has explained, more than once, what they did was move about 100 guys, 20 miles South.

A use of force authorization - basically a war vote.
Those of us who supported him then did so partially because he followed the Constitution to go in there.

Trump should remind Congress that it's their job to declare war, not his, and tell them he's going to avoid conflict unless they're all willing to go on the record to vote for it.

Nah, they're going to sit with their thumbs up their asses and hope Trump unilaterally does something that they've been urging, so that five minutes later they can beat him over the head as a war-monger and start bleating about putting "our children" in harm's way, and giving peace a chance.
It's the Democrat way. See, e.g., the Iraq War.

The AUMF expired when Obama ran on pulling us out of Iraq and won the election. I disagreed with it, but the people voted and we get a say in this country.

It absolutely is, contra the Magic Negro's statements about "his" military.
We really need to get the three branches of government back into their own lanes.
The legislative branch needs to pass laws, budgets, declarations of war, etc.
The executive branch needs to sign laws, budgets, etc. and to carry out policy.
The judicial branch needs to interpret the law as written, not as they WISH it had been written, and still less to in effect make their own law out of whole cloth.

People on the other side are bringing up things like the Kathy Griffin Trump severed head incident and saying Trump supporters were "furious." I don't think that was the typical reaction. It was more like "Oh. OK. It gets you what it gets you." Plus mild disgust that such a nasty person claims to be a victim.
The actual violence has all gone in one direction only-- Left to Right. Scalise. Beating attendees leaving Trump rallies. Antifa. And the cops are usually on their side.
The hypocrisy is absolute because it's by design. Knowledge of the Left's actual violence has to be counteracted with tantrums about the Right's imagined violence. Their consultant is The Father of Lies.

I had no idea what the buzz was. When I saw it: I COULD NOT STOP LAUGHING.
And it's even funnier knowing that it got the media's goat.
