The Morning Rant: Minimalist Edition

punk-monkey.jpg

What a concept! Tradition. And nowhere does tradition act more aggressively than in the norms of sexual behavior. But that makes perfect sense, even ignoring the biblical admonitions. Exactly how would civilization advance if the structure of the family was a chaotic melange of multiple sex partners and multiple fathers and mothers who could not rely on those fathers.

Structure and stability are essential prerequisites for the creation of a vibrant and successful society.

What? No. I'm not describing current mores in some parts of America, though I could be.

Traditional Sex as Political Rebellion

Sexual rebellion remained a political tool of the counterculture straight on through the 20th century. The free-love movement of the ‘60s challenged the purportedly constraining norms that encouraged premarital abstinence, monogamy, marriage, and reproductive sex. The transgressive performances on display in gay pride events represented an acknowledgement and parodic embrace of the non-normative culture of the LGBT community. However, it’s important to note that the genuinely transgressive character of both the free love and the gay pride movements was in effect evidence that the traditionally conservative norms for sex in America remained firmly in place.
And that's exactly why traditional sexual relationships are the primary target of the progressive left. They have co-opted education, and they are now busily destroying the structure and character of the American family.

And they have a successful template in Black America, courtesy of "The Great Society" and LBJ and the rest of the racist Democrats of the 1960s. They insinuated government between Black America, the church and tradition, and in the process created a dependent subculture and a viciously dysfunctional underclass.

If one planned to destroy Black America, would one have done anything differently?

And now they are using the same tools to complete the destruction of the larger American society.

We live in the most exceptional country on the planet, populated by an extraordinary people who are governed by the most unique political system in history.

Throughout our journey to this point we have met and prevailed over issues (some even more serious than the current mess) that have destroyed lesser nations.

We will, in time, prevail over this one. Because we are Americans--and as such are denied the option of failure.

NEVER forget that.

It's too early to know what happened without all the facts, but what we know for sure is those horrible racist cops shot that innocent unarmed black man who was getting his life together and going to rap school and the only reason they did it was because of their systemic hatred of those red, green, and yellow window curtains and other strong black symbols.

They WILL turn him into a saint. His grandfather apparently was in the civil rights movement with MLK, and his father has connections to Al Sharpton. The fact that he has been convicted of domestic abuse and sexual assault in the past will matter not.

As a result, Mencken is a non-person with the left today. PRIOR TO the revelation of Mencken's profound race hatred, the Left loved him a lot-- see e.g., the Gene Kelly character in the film "Inherit the Wind."

96 Former SJW Keri Smith (ace did a post about her voting Trump last week) was on Tim Pool's podcast last week, and she described the latest iteration of the LGBTQ insanity: saying 'preferred pronuns' is not offensive.

How could this be -- what could possible coma after preferred pronouns, right?

Well, the new hotness is that one is 'born that way' so saying it's a preference is now offensive. It's not a preference, it's a FACT, haterz!!

She described the LGBTQ agenda a post-modern, a constant quest to destroy the meaning of everything.

Posted by: Cat Ass Trophy at August 25, 2020 10:55 AM (dNzKv)

Ronna McDaniel has been an early and absolutely loyal supporter of Trump from the first day of his 2016 campaign. She is the granddaughter of George Romney, former Gov. of Michigan and both her mother and her grandmother ran for Congressional seats when she was a youngster which she says inspired her interest in politics. She worked for several media production companies as a business manager, she has a degree from Brigham Young.

She became the head of the Michigan Republican Party after working in Mitt's campaign , and worked hard to get Trump elected. She cleaned house in MIchigan to remove party officials who were never Trumpers.

After Trumps election is when she was chosen by Trump and then elected to head the RNC after Priebus "left". She's been a pretty staunch conservative, calling out Amash and especially all the Russia hoax participants.

First of all, he's a big fat guy, so he knows he's not anyone's stereotype of a gay man, and he's fond of saying lots of gay men are closeted Republicans. That they long for a world where they don't have to see the idiotic queer parades, and 11 year old drag kids having money tossed at them in bars.

In fact, Dillon says his goal is to be funny, and to have people who might otherwise turn their nose up at him because he's gay, and at the end of his show, to acknowledge he was able to entertain them.

It's the same ol' problem for the left. If you are constantly cutting in half, the demons you are battling, each subsequent strike at your demons is slicing up something half as big as what you sliced before.

If racism or homophobia or whatever else you are fighting started out as a 64, it got cut to 32 decades ago, then 16, then 8, then 4, then 2, then 1, then .5, then .25... and so on.

And then, if anyone tries to defend that character, you can say "Oh well now you're of this time and you should know better, and so now I will attack you!!!"

It's all a cheap stunt. What's fair to say about Mencken is that he was the most notable Curmudgeon in American Literary history, and he was nasty about *Every* body, and he didn't care who he pissed off. In this age of SJWism, I find a lot to admire in a man with that kind of attitude.

You who sit down in the High God's presence,
spend the night in Shaddai's shadow,
Say this: "God, you're my refuge.
I trust in you and I'm safe!"
That's right - he rescues you from hidden traps,
shields you from deadly hazards.
His huge outstretched arms protect you-
under them you're perfectly safe;
his arms fend off all harm.
Fear nothing - not wild wolves in the night,
not flying arrows in the day,
Not disease that prowls through the darkness,
not disaster that erupts at high noon.
Even though others succumb all around,
drop like flies right and left,
no harm will even graze you.
You'll stand untouched, watch it all from a distance,
watch the wicked turn into corpses.
Yes, because God's your refuge,
the High God your very own home,
Evil can't get close to you,
harm can't get through the door.
He ordered his angels
to guard you wherever you go.
If you stumble, they'll catch you;
their job is to keep you from falling.
You'll walk unharmed among lions and snakes,
and kick young lions and serpents from the path.

159 The unequaled wealth created worldwide in the aftermath of WWII has led to enormous consequences in all areas of life.

If you are living in an agrarian society, fairly hand to mouth, you don't have the time or the ability to show off your unusual sexual perversions, let alone make those perversions your way of life. There's work to be done in order to survive the next winter.

And remember, the Founding Fathers of the United States couldn't perceive a U.S. that was not primarily agricultural. The Industrial Revolution, along with the amazing advances in scientific knowledge, gave us a very different world than the Enlightenment era that birthed the U.S. and modern western civilization.

The nuclear family, and its extended ties through the community with grandparents, sisters and brothers and nephews and nieces and cousins is the glue that holds civilization itself together.

The Left wants to drag us back to a primitive feudal society where what holds us together is our fear of them. These nationwide nighttime riots, looting, arsons, and attacking police, police stations and courthouses is what they have in mind for us forever.

those who claim this mantle are always far, far, far more "socially liberal" than "fiscally conservative". thus, fiscal conservatism never happens b/c you have to fund the "socially liberal" agenda.
And, by "socially liberal" they will claim that they mean the gov't shouldn't dictate morals. But, what they mean in practice is that the gov't should do all the things the left wants - teach homosexuality and transgenderism to kindergartners, fund abortions, etc.
This is why Libertarian is such a joke. they are always, ALWAYS, much more concerned with promoting the leftist social agenda then limiting gov't.

The process started before WWII with industrialization in the late 19th and early 20th century (the WWI government was a prototype). Republics of the sort we had do best with a bunch of small land-holder farming types(profession and living area tends to have a large impact on worldview).

Feminism/sexual lib movements are somewhat independent of the economic changes, having happened before in the Roman Empire(dooming the pagan elements as only the Christians propagated with proper family units).

In many ways this is the story of Obama who rather than killing the racism issue forever chose to go out of his way to ramp up tensions.

A quick sidebar - classic definition of terrorism is for a relatively fringe political group to engage in some heinous act against a neutral group to trigger what could be claimed to be a gross over reaction in response. That would then be used by the instigator to claim victim status and get world sympathy to put them in charge where they failed with persuasion before. Example - kill a bunch of nuns because your commie ass wants the rich guys money. Rich guys wipes out half your fighters. Claim foul. Blue Hats move in and hand rich guys money to you.

Anyway... The progtards are willing to get as many black Americans killed as it takes to get the rich guys money.

I agree with you. I think the perp's connection to black leaders was the thing that made him think he could just ignore what the police were ordering him to do. That's the crucial moment where this all went south, the one bad decision that fixed everything that came after. He's fighting with the cops, and then rather than just submit, he chooses to ignore their orders, go to his car, and to look like he's reaching under his seat for again.

The instant he made that move, he guaranteed he was gonna get shot. But that wasn't the move of someone with a plan - that was the move of an arrogant, disrespectful idiot who thinks he can do anything.

Letting him open the car door seems like a mistake .. but once he is reaching under the seat, shooting might be the correct action?


There is video of a guy with two cops trying to stop him, he reaches under his car seat and gets his gun, shoots the cops ... they fire several shots after that, not sure of the final outcome.

In fairness, the "fiscally responsible voter" is just as bad. they want budget cuts - but not the ones that cut things they like. See, e.g., the "conservative" midwest and corn subsidies.

Look at everyone when anyone talks about reforming SS. Even conservatives say things like "I paid for it, it's not an entitlement". Well, not really. the money you paid in is not remotely enough to fund the amount you will be paid out - that is why it is a ponzi scheme - your payout has to be funded by new "investors". Yes, perhaps if the gov't had invested the SS taxes you paid in - perhaps then the amount you paid in would fund what is going to be paid out (or even more in some cases). But, that isn't what happened and everyone knew that wasn't happening.

If we didn't have voters that want to protect the trough they are eating from, we'd get politicians willing to cut spending.

286 Many complaints out of Portland that the cops are assaulting members of the "press".

An interesting dynamic is occurring at the Portland riots - of about 300 rioters present, about 50 claim to be members of "the press" - they wear helmets and clothing identifying themselves as members of the press. Although members of the "press" have occasionally been caught throwing things at the cops and providing riot support vehicles, their main function is to serve as the media wing of Antifa. All but a tiny handful of these "press" people are 100% pro-Antifa - identifiable press people who aren't pro-Antifa tend to get assaulted by the mob.

My question is: exactly when did we create a caste of people who can ignore police orders in the middle of a riot? I missed the part of the First Amendment that states that press people have rights and privileges that ordinary US citizens don't have.

An Obama Federal judge in Portland has ordered the cops not to bother the "press" people. For a while, he was toying with the idea of having the ACLU certify who was and was not a legitimate member of the press, but it apparently dawned on him that he would be reversed quickly if he named a pro-Antifa organization to vet press people.

enough to fund the amount you will be paid out - that is why it is a
ponzi scheme - your payout has to be funded by new "investors". Yes,
perhaps if the gov't had invested the SS taxes you paid in - perhaps
then the amount you paid in would fund what is going to be paid out (or
even more in some cases). But, that isn't what happened and everyone

Heh, Yeah, I'll see a couple or family out and it's always the woman wearing one.

However, I also see a lot of women not wearing them outside (myself included), so not all women are woke idiots brainwashed by Marxism.

309 as of yesterday they had not announced what the black man was trying to get from under his car seat. Having already been tased, pushing cops out of the way ... sure seems like he was going for a weapon ... and procedure? were they afraid to take him down and put their knee on his neck? Letting him open the car door seems like a mistake .. but once he is reaching under the seat, shooting might be the correct action?
------------------

There is video of a guy with two cops trying to stop him, he reaches under his car seat and gets his gun, shoots the cops ... they fire several shots after that, not sure of the final outcome.
Posted by: illiniwek at August 25, 2020 11:31 AM (Cus5s)


Or the one that has been posted quite a bit, the troopers pull over the guy, as they try to cuff him, he stiffens, resists, starts tussling, then they taze him. He falls to the ground, gets back up. One of the cops is trying to beat the snot out of him, and the other is trying to cuff him. He grabs the cuffer's gun, shoots BOTH cops, I believe. He's hit by rounds in the process, and still manages to drive away.

Later goes to a hospital, and the legal system gets involved.

Sometimes it's a wonder to me that cops aren't shooting substantially MORE people in these situations.

314 "Either one side defeats the other or one side moves elsewhere."

There are multiple sides ... and the middle sides (50%?) are just waking up to the totalitarian liars that are running the Dem party. imo maybe 10% are in favor of the actions of the crazed leftists. Even in black neighborhoods, imo a minority want fewer police, and they know all too well that black on black crime (largely drug/gang related) is their community's biggest problem.

The 50% low info middle is also waking up to what liars the media is ... the middle loves America, for the most part, but the leftist screechers are all that fill the media. The riots are orchestrated, outsiders brought in ... mayors order police to stand down. The only "grass roots" part is when the looters show up for free stuff, but that is more opportunist than political anger at "white man bad".


Their activist side is maybe 10%, plus their media whores for the left. And big money, if they think it helps defeat Trump and gets their China money/slaves back, or helps their globalism dreams.

348 So, what exactly was the mayor of Kenosha doing all day yesterday?

After the first night's violence, it was obvious that attempts would be made to trash downtown Kenosha the second night, and that people would be coming down from Milwaukee and up from Chicago to riot.

You'd think he would have spent all day with the police chief coming up with a plan for the upcoming riots and figuring out how to deploy the city cops in the evening, coordinating with the county sheriff, asking adjacent county sheriffs for aid, and leaning on the governor to get the National Guard into Kenosha in the afternoon (rather than late in the evening, as happened).

Instead, the cops were completely caught flatfooted - they obviously had a plan to protect the courthouse, and no plan to protect downtown.

Complete incompetence. Oh, I forgot - the mayor is a Democrat, isn't he?

How about nursing homes? Their activities staff, their dietary staff, LNA's etc. are often high school students, college students, those in early 20s. After their shift, do you think they ALL practice social distancing, wear masks, etc.? Or are they going out and having fun with friends? Yet they care for our elderly - our family members that we can't get next to, but THEY can.

All this praise for people blocking streets, and now carrying weapons while ordering people to turn around ... it encourages more "terrorism". They need to arrest those people en masse, and give big sentences to an that carry a weapon and then order people in vehicles. (illegally detaining, with a weapon in hand ... that is like armed robbery, should not matter if they don't point the gun, right?)

421
So the defining characteristic of Satan, and fallen humans alike, is that we are unable to create.

God alone can create something from nothingness, life from dirt. The best Satan and we as fallen humans can do is to mimic or imitate God.

This was original sin, that the serpent tempted humanity into believing that there was no need for subservience, that they could take of knowledge and be as God themselves. This too was Satans desire to be esteemed as high as God.

So all we see in modern culture are merely man's attempts at mirroring reality, the true reality lain before us by God for us to see and clearly understand. Inasmuch as they are luring to the soul and the sinful nature of man, the deceptions, the shadows, the mirrors of the truth have much appeal and are easily accepted.

Science declares creation as a nothing-burger, a cosmic accident, a random result of astrophysics and quantum theory that is the I am that I am.

With God removed as Creator, the rest is more easily decayed. But man has an indwelled need for truth and order that can not be replaced by a void. Because man was created in God's image, the nature of God for order and truth remains. For this reason, postmodernism and moral relativism do not result in a society that is free from rules, fixed points and a laissez-faire attitude towards social constructs. They instead replace them with new realities.

And these new realities must be taught and ingrained and yes, punished when not adhered to. Alas, true truth always lies there as a giant elephant unable to be ignored even by the most disciplined of minds fixated on illusion.

A lesbian may deny the need of a man to reproduce, but reality still exists. Be it by way of turkey baster or test tube, two sexes must unite.

The gender binary reality of life may be denied, but it can not be replaced with nothing or free thinking about the issue. It is replaced with a new and bastardized understanding the belies the eyes and the heart, and as such must be enforced by threat of cancel culture excommunication by the secular clerics.

Obama once noted "You didn't build that", and he was both right while at the same time horribly wrong. Man indeed did not build society, but a Obama attributed its benefits to government. All provision and greatness is not a result of our toil, but rather the providence and grace of the Creator, who gave us all knowledge of what was profitable for the body and the soul.

447 I've yet to see a woman in my area who hasn't 1000% bought into the mask nonsense, too.


I'm female. Masks are required in stores in Ohio, and I wear one so I don't get hassled. However, I don't wear them outside, and actually take it off AFTER I have made a purchase and am on my way out. So... please don't confuse compliance with this nonsense as embracing it.
Posted by: shibumi, awaiting SMOD at August 25, 2020 11:51 AM (ZCiJZ)


Same here (except the female part). The mask goes on as I'm going in the door, comes off when I'm leaving.

I don't want to be hassled. Not because I'm afraid what they might do to me, but I'm afraid what I might do to them.

Occasionally I see shoppers, men and women, with no masks on. I quietly nod "you go, dude" as I walk past. Not going to get into that either, if someone gives them shite, I might intervene, and I might not.

Black women jurors were classic - they decided our perp was guilty about 30 seconds after the trial began, probably, and were epic in their disbelief and frustration when the 2 young white jurors held out (stupidly, white "guilt" masquerading as a poor understanding of the elements of the charge) against the most serious charge.

Most people read about violence in Seattle, Portland, New York, Chicago, Minneapolis, and think - "Meh - these are big cities run by crazy people, and I don't live in a big city run by crazy people."

But Kenosha, Wisconsin? That strikes a lot closer to home - it's not a big city, it's not run by crazy people, and it still got trashed. It shows that left-wing violence can hit absolutely anywhere, and that's really threatening to the average American.

I feel threatened. I did see a way out of place transient-looking black man who gave me the willies walking on the main road that runs parallel to the neighborhood that morning.

505 It's now been reported - "sources say" - that when reversing its own mask guidance, a WHO panel did not consider any technical info - there was nothing new - but consciously based the change on political pressure or requirements.

A "sources say" story can be evaluated, like most things, in terms of its plausibility and relation to known facts - this one is very credible.

Seven decades of randomized clinical trials and a century of observational experience have yielded no evidence of significant benefit in limiting transmission of viral disease from masks, apart from actual respirators properly fitted and used, in a clinical setting (not comparable to normal/real life).

Pre-scientific, medieval, and totalitarian is a bad look for 2020.

Oh - and the poorly informed/smug/arrogant element - your average NPR listener and a stunning number of actual medical and "scientific" people - really don't want to know about surgical masks in clinical settings, and what they have been shown to do/not do.

If the purpose of masks is to catch spittle etc. then a wedding veil or mosquito net would be more than enough material to do the job.

Particulate filter etc. is clearly not the purpose.

If it was to protect the user from a virus then we would all be dressed in moon suits with supplied air.

I've been doing my best to avoid the mask. Unfortunately I've had a couple of times where I couldn't avoid it, like accompanying my kid to a medical appointment. *sigh*

And I had a good mask-free streak going too.

519 Speaking of destroying Black America, it seems to me the Blacks have been a willing partner with the leftards in this project.

As with all of these groups it's not "blacks" as a group, it's "black activists". Who are also leftards.

527 I don't care the slightest bit about the masks. I value freedom to do what is best for me and my family at any given time, and I value the same thing for you. If you think a mask is the key to your safety, wear a mask. If you think a red dot on your forehead does it, put a read dot on your forehead.

If you're scared of a cold virus that hasn't killed literally 99.99% of the world's population, stay home. Leave me out of your fetish.

528 Not run by crazy people? I see evidence to the contrary.

There has been a rash of attempted arsons in central Portland since the festivities started.

A city councilwoman, who wants to be Police Commissioner, accused the cops of setting the fires.

I doubt that Kenosha has anyone like that on its city council.

Posted by: The ARC of History! at August 25, 2020 12:11 PM (I2/tG)

529 I am not into conspiracies, but the more info comes out, the more I believe Kenosha was planned. The timing, the "victim" with ties to MLK and Sharpton, the perfectly placed bystander recording... They found someone willing to die for a cause.

535 The dumbing down of the "elites" and the collapse of institutions continue to entertain.

WSJ, and I think now NYT, with stories about "new" doubts about lockdowns. New = considered, settled doctrine on the subject, for decades, long since enshrined in basic guidance by all the major public health organizations.

Sweden was going by the book. *Everyone else* was the radical experiment - and it was questioned from the outset by well qualified observers. Speaking of which, chief UK epidemiologist pathetically admitted lockdown was a panic move not based on any new or particular scientific rationale, but simply something that could be done. "Do something!"

537 "If you think a mask is the key to your safety, wear a mask."

I wear it in stores if they want me to. It's a small imposition. I'm a concealed carrier, so I deliberately avoid situations likely to piss people off.

I pick my battles, and Face-Freedom is not the hill I want to die on. Not when real threats to 1A and 2A are afoot in the USA.

539 Let me introduce you to Jordan61 and Nurse Ratchet.

Add Empire1 to that list. I may put one on to get into a store for something essential, like prescriptions, but as soon as I get past the gatekeeper, it's down under my chin.

Distressingly, I'm usually the only one with a bare face.

540 "Same here."

It just seems churlish to me to brag "I took my mask off in front of a grocery bagger today, and he gave me a dirty look. I struck a Blow For Freedom!"

541 "There is video of a guy with two cops trying to stop him, he reaches under his car seat and gets his gun, shoots the cops ... they fire several shots after that, not sure of the final outcome."

I saw that video a few days ago. It looks like the guy shot from his side of the car and hit both cops. Both went down, one was able to climb over a guard rail to get away after being shot.

I searched around to try to find out the final outcome under searches such as "two police officers shot", etc. but surprise, surprise, all I could find were links to the Kenosha shooting, pretty much all politically slaned to the left.

.....

I agree with you.

Though I approach it a bit differently.

Most places at the moment are doing curbside service, so I make it a small imposition on the business to come outside for my business.

If a business doesn't want me inside because they believe me to be a diseased cockroach or rodent, I completely understand. I just have them come outside.
