The Morning Report - 5/28/21

Good morning kids. Friday and the Memorial Day weekend is here. The solemnity of that day is no doubt amplified by the fact that those whose blessed memory we cherish gave their lives for a country that no longer exists. Worse, they died to defeat the very same tyranny that their progeny have embraced. The unkindest cut of all is the Orwellian blood-libeling of our heroes and leaders as evil and the transmogrification of the actual victims as perpetrators. It's the moral equivalent of defecating on every grave in every national cemetery and overseas battlefield memorial. Honestly, I have no more tears; I have only anger. The magnitude of my loathing for what has been done is beyond my capacity to put into words. If there is a G-d in Heaven, one day all of this will be avenged, and this stain will be expunged from the face of the earth.

Meanwhile, one of the many heads of the hydra are the disaffected, brainwashed youth, dressed in black, hurling Molotov cocktails, bricks, cement hate-shakes and their fists at windows, cars and people. While the Democrat-Propaganda Complex certainly benefited from their mostly peaceful pogroms and riots over the past year and even well before that, and celebrate their "anti-fascist" and "anti-racist" spirit of protest, they may be rather surprised to learn they are hated almost to the same degree as their opponents across the aisle in Congress. What Antifa is all about goes way beyond a little rioting and window-breaking. This shit is Killing Fields-level serious. You can mock the freaks with myriad piercings and day-glo colored hair. But the ones who are pushing their buttons - whoever they are - "ain't no ways thar'd."

Antifa's ultimate goal is the destabilizing of our nation and the undermining of our democracy, leading to a revolution -- an updated version of the Maoist model that I learned about while living in China. The violence they advocate and nurture is a means to that end, intended to sow chaos and raise suspicion of traditional institutions of order.
Perhaps most chilling is its adherents' absolute confidence in the righteousness of their cause and their certainty about its eventual triumph. Like the Taliban -- and those behind The Terror in Revolutionary France or the Bolsheviks in Russia -- it is a belief system that allows not the slightest reflection or hesitation. The most extreme measures and heinous acts are acceptable when done on its behalf.
In fact, they are so secure in their beliefs (and so confident of not being fully exposed in today's media and civic environment) that they rarely bother to hide them. A year before the summer 2020 riots, a New York Antifa member identifying herself as Maura blithely explained to a CNN reporter why she and her comrades felt no hesitation wreaking havoc on private property -- and against those with whom they disagree. "Violence against windows," she scoffed, "there's no such thing as violence against windows. Windows don't have -- they're not persons. And even when they are persons, the people we fight back against, they are evil. They are the living embodiment, they are the second coming of Hitler."
Antifa's leading academic apologist Mark Bray, an assistant philosophy professor and author of Antifa: The Anti-Fascist Handbook (2017), the widely-cited true-believing authority on Antifa's beliefs and tactics, once noted that Antifa adherents "have no allegiance to liberal democracy... They're anarchists and communists who are way outside the traditional conservative-liberal spectrum."
That view is evident in Antifa's online TTP guide, Black Bloc Tactics Communique, which mocks pacifism and sets out Antifa's immediate goals:
1 - Increased organization of street fighting force.
2 - Regular physical training in between actions.
3 - Facilitation of pre-emptive strikes.
4 - Preparation for eventuality of intensified state oppression and the shifting of the movement of social protest into that of direct social revolution.
In short, what we've seen to date is only a prelude.
Former Australian Antifa leader Shayne Hunter once said of his former comrades, "The radical left of Antifa presents itself as being about compassion and empathy; it's a Trojan horse."
Antifa, he added, "is more dangerous than ISIS."

That is an excerpt from Jack Posobiec's newest book The Antifa: Stories from Inside the Black Bloc and from just the lengthy excerpt at Human Events, it's pretty damned chilling. But of course, Zhou Bai-Din thinks Antifa "is just an idea" and Merrick Garland along with Lloyd Austin are rounding up and imprisoning or otherwise ruining the lives of decent, innocent citizens because they are "white supremacists" and as such pose the gravest threat to "our sacred democracy" (spit). Funny how their Public Enemy #1 is exactly the same as the Antifa/BLM terrorists. It may be lost on them that the Allies and Stalin were also fighting a common enemy -- and then the war ended.

Considering the mass purges in the military and law enforcement and the indoctrination of the cadres with socialist social justice propaganda - the very same propaganda that fuels the street thuggery and terrorist insurrection of Antifa - if the junta in Kalorama think they are going to be able to control this beast that they have unleashed on us, they have another thing coming. They themselves are going to be the first people the children of Pol Pot are going to come for.

Antifa and BLM could be crushed inside of a few weeks. The problem is we have no government. We have no real law enforcement or criminal justice anymore. We are political dissidents and internal exiles in what is in essence a foreign country whose culture and society are anathema to our own, and in fact, are in league (albeit for the time being) with the aforementioned terrorists. If that is not 100% the case yet, it soon will be. It's banana republic time and the only way that Antifa and BLM are going to be neutralized is by private citizens. You read between the lines on that one.

That said, it's better to end in laughter and a nice hard schaden-boner, so I'll leave you with this:

An Atlanta city councilman who voted to withhold funds from the police had his car stolen Wednesday in broad daylight.
The incident unfolded around 11:45 a.m., when Councilman Antonio Brown told officers he stepped out of his car to speak with someone, the Atlanta Journal-Constitution reported. Then, "several males entered his unlocked car and drove away with it," police said.
Brown told the Atlanta Journal-Constitution the thieves appeared to be kids and one "acted as though he had a gun."
"You don't immediately think, 'Oh, these kids are going to steal my car,'" Brown reportedly said. Brown told the outlet he grabbed onto the back of the car and was dragged down the street before he let go.
Brown said the kids likely stole his car because of poverty.

In the immortal words of Nelson Muntz, LOLGF! Have a blessed and safe Memorial Day weekend. May those who gave their lives in the fight for freedom rest in eternal glory.

Yup. What we saw lat summer through fall, thanks to complicit blue state mayors and governors like Portland's Wheeler, is antifa refining it's tactics, bigly. Every night they fought in Portland, they learned what tactics and weapons worked, and which didn't. They also refined their infrastructure to handle multi-city fronts. Recall that it was a Portland group, the Riot Kitchen, arrested in Kenosha. They are antifa's supply wing, including food and weapons (and weaponized food - soup cans). I imagine they have become much stronger and more formidible thanks to the BLM riots.

Good to see you, Vic.

It's coming to small towns, too. Not in the form of the employees, but in the form of state / federal level policies and legal action against them for making the right call and putting criminals down when the criminals are threatening the lives of others.

Unless something drastic happens in the system (and it wont because it can't), most decent cops will be out in 10 years and even the red areas will have what were the bottom 20-40% as their top cops because the force can't hire anyone else that wants to be - or recognizes that they can be - civilly sued because he stopped a murderer.

76 Antifa's ultimate goal is the destabilizing of our nation and the undermining of our democracy, leading to a revolution -- an updated version of the Maoist model that I learned about while living in China. The violence they advocate and nurture is a means to that end, intended to sow chaos and raise suspicion of traditional institutions of order.
++++
Yes. Antifa is serious as cancer and at least as dangerous. They are violent, boots-on-the-ground revolutionary communists. Their European brethren are largely Marxist, but will compromise to achieve their goal. Our brand is largely Maoist, but will compromise to achieve their goal. Either way, they want the communist megastate and for all opponents to be dead. They might settle, after consolidating power, for a gulag system - but they don't want that. They want Cambodia, not Russia.

Many of them do, yes. And those who consider that it might not don't care. Never mind that the ones who think they'll be fine are probably right,* even if they aren't they don't much care.

* To a point. The Party leaders, early activists and military command are *always* fine under Communism. Antifa as a whole, however, likely won't be. Once they do their job, they'll become untenably dangerous to the Party and thus the Party will purge Antifa. It always happens that way. The survivors will likely be living high on the hog, but most of them will not survive. That's the part Antifa is missing - the part where the Party purges the street warriors during the consolidation phase. The Soviets did it, the Nazis did it, the Red Chinese did it multiple times. Even the Cambodians did it to some degree (but the street won that one, until it was externally deposed by Vietnam).

Duh. This is basic Science.

Speaking of, other than staffing decisions and making the horribly innacurate assumption that the government employees also basically loved America and wanted what's best for her and her people even if we disagreed on how to get there (I labored under that same misunderstanding until recently myself):

What was Trump ever wrong about?

+++++
Liberal writers Jonathan Chait and Matthew Yglesias make a persuasive case that political journalists got stuck on a Twitter-fueled anti-Trump narrative and in effect crowded out more serious and knowledgeable science journalists. ...
... For four years, if Trump said "the sky is blue," someone in the mainstream media would respond, mockingly, "Well, actually, scientists say ... blah blah blah." ...
Again, the media deserves much of its comeuppance on the lab-leak story - and a great many others. But it's worth remembering that in the end, the Boy Who Cried Wolf was right. However, that's not the moral of that story.

What. An. Asshole. "It is to some degree Yglesias and Chait's fault, since they're reactionaries. More than anything, though, it's Trump's fault for breeding a reactionary environment where men like that could thrive. It isn't *my* fault, though. I'm better than that. I'm a serious man."

Same here. Sorta takes a bit of the sting out of knowing there's a powerful spirit that controls the evil on Earth, but not much. I use "Stan" as a way to say, "Get thee behind me. And stay there."

Then we're fast arriving at the point in time where rubber meets the road with states' rights and just how many (red) states will defy federal policy such as this. I've been saying since November that the only savior I see is that which will come from the states turning their backs on these radical policies coming from this illegitimate federal gov't. It will involve forgoing federal $bucks, since that's the first thing that will be used to retaliate, I'd imagine. I don't even want to know who has the guts. I have to have some vestige of hope somewhere, and all I have now lies within the states and their actions from here on out.

About 95% of the folk in the store were masked up. This lead me to determine this...

[ ] Despite reports of high percentages of the population being vaccinated...they aren't.

[ ] Despite reports of the effectiveness of the vaccine, most of the population is indeed vaccinated, but do not trust it to protect them.

Where are you located, if I may ask? I think this is pretty highly regional. Here in my part of TN, it's over. Masks are over. Distancing is over. Even the morning news (which I force myself to watch 20 minutes of once a week) isn't dedicating whole blocks to it anymore. Every time I go into a store, fewer are masked. It's down to about 25% at the grocery store, and the people with masks stand out like sore thumbs in restaurants.

From that AmGreatness article, the writer makes a salient point that I think serves two purposes:
"Colonizers" they might be, but beyond performative self-flagellation, their borderline genocidal rhetoric about "whiteness" comes with no real penalties to their convenience, safety, and status. What really matters is that nobody confuse them with one of those working-class "racists." This fear is their very own form of "white fragility": poor whites remind them of what they could be if misfortune struck them, or perhaps once were.

He's right in the point he's making, but there's a small bonus in this, too. He also just perfectly - down to atomic levels of resolution - described Kevin Williamson.

Jonah's just admitted the media can be manipulated and distracted because they are led by emotion. What he's blaming on Trump, though, was mostly a media creation: they are the ones who created the Trump Outrage of the Day coverage with scandals about. . . two scoops of ice cream, Melania not holding his hand, overfeeding fish, and so on. Thet whipped themselves up into a feeding frenzy so that every time Trump opened his mouth they were racing to find the GOTCHA!

Jonah is also pretending as if the media couldn't discern between Trump's provocative mean tweets and his presidention activities. Really? Normies could. You were too busy chasing or ignoring his latest insult to take the information provided in one of the long daily covid briefings and research it, etc.?

174 As someone explained yesterday about Rush's timeslot. He pretty much had a lock on it with all the radio networks. Now the networks aren't unified and are choosing different people. Bongino is getting some, Sexton is getting some, Shapiro is even getting some, plus others.
Posted by: lowandslow at May 28, 2021 07:21 AM (4thlk)

Let a thousand flowers bloom. Free market, baby!

I think Rush himself would feel that way. Rather than backing some anointed guy, which he could have done had he wished.

Bongino seems to be doing the best job of high spirits and conservative thought right now that echoes Rush's style. Though, of course, he's not as good as Rush.

The thing I'm waiting for is now that the King is dead. The Hard Left will take another well-funded shot at taking over that time slot, and bring us the Leftard version of Rush. Sadly, I believe that a true out and open socialist firebrand could probably make a serious dent in that slot among the Soy Latte Seltzer crowd

Plante is great. A super funny guy, and he is engaging. I used to listen to him a lot. Chris' strengths are what you just mentioned. His weaker points, at least to me, revolve around him being "a teacher" of conservative principles. He's terrific at being a pit bull against a totally corrupt, propagandistic American media system...and he does it with great humor. But I always saw Rush as the masterclass at actually teaching, informing, contrasting. I don't know who's the closest to that now. Mark Levin maybe. We could splice the brains of Chris Plante and Mark Levin and create our own talk giant!

Yep.

It's still amazing that people don't understand that Antifa is 100 years old. They were fighting for communist control of Germany against the Nazis.

THAT'S what they're talking about when they say they're ant-Nazi. Gosh, they must be good guys! It's extremely clever. It's still massively disappointing that Trump didn't see fit to deem them the international terrorist organization that they've always been and deal with them accordingly.

Okay, after I typed that out I realized Trump probably DID try to, same as I'm sure he tried to invoke the Insurrection Act against the coup, and the government laughed at him and said "No."

Rush's success was not only conservative viewpoint, but also he was a true radio man. He started in broadcasting at the age of 16 spinning records in my hometown. He knew how to create compelling radio.

Most of these new guys don't know radio. Maybe they can learn. Who knows. After listening to Bongino's show this week I'm not impressed. He's a novelty now. But in 6 mo's I think listener fatigue will start to set in unless he makes some changes.

Some find that very liberating and compelling. There is nothing new about this, and it will always entice certain people.

Seldom mentioned is the insecurity at play with these self-loathing Whites. The original Marxists found the strongest defense of the liberal order was by the petty bourgeoisie because they were the most aware of their status in the ownership class. Today we are divided by credential, and the people on the lowest rung of the credentialed classes, journalists, teachers, and failed millenials with a diploma, are the strongest enforcers of the credentialed caste system. It's a self-defense mechanism.

Combined with fast-falling incomes (biggest monthly drop ever), the US worker is in for a rough summer of rising prices without rising wages.

248 Does anyone know the name of a WWII documentary about ordinary peoples' lives in Germany before and during the war? It is from several years ago and used a lot of recovered home movies. They used a catchphrase to introduce segments: e.g., "If you were a middle-class German in 1939..."

251 Finally saw a small breakthrough with regards to mask mania. Here in Ohio the face diaper has been king for (hard to believe) well over a year. I stopped by a local grocery store on Tuesday and the percentage of unmasked was up to maybe a third of the shoppers. This may not sound like a big deal but up until very recently, compliance stood at about 99%. On the one hand it was heartening to actually see facial expressions and people smiling at one another. On the other, it was maddening to think about how easily people knuckled under to fear and placed unquestioning trust in a cloth talisman.

There is no better example of this than the MIT paper Pixy linked a couple of weeks ago in his or her tech thread. That is a paper published by the MIT data visualization department. It was written a doc candidate with some undergrad co-researches and signed off on by the department chair. It makes this point manifestly obvious.

It argues that the high degree of sophistication, talent, data analysis and visualization skill, messaging, and data tracking within anti-mask online communities is extremely dangerous because it's happening outside of scientific institutions and that such activity should be curtailed because scientific and data pursuits should be within official institutional confines. That the problem isn't data or media illiteracy, but rather too *much* literacy and sophistication in the wrong places, which leads to wrongthink.

It was blood-chilling to read.

Democrats (and Republicans) could learn a lesson from this. Trump stepped out of the way, made a business friendly environment with predictable regulations and a defense of American economic and commercial interests at the heart of his administration. The only way to beat that was to shut down the entire fucking planet, and when that didn't work, they had to cheat like mad in the middle of the night.

312 I'm still trying to come to grips with how it feels to have stayed sane all along while most of the world was losing its goddam minds.

I never once, though, thought to myself "It would be easier to just go along. Just accept your Pod like everyone else and become a Pod Person. It would be so much easier than walking your own planet like an alien."

F that. All along, I said, "I'll die on my feet, not on my knees."

313 "Scientists and journalists should reckon with their early dismissals of the lab-leak hypothesis."

It's all about the words, as I commented yesterday afternoon. Real accident investigators, not journalists and politicians, would at this time call a Wuhan bug lab leak a possibility. Not a theory, or hypothesis, or impossibility.

When you call it a possibility, it becomes almost impossible (except for liars) to discount it, at this time. The Media claims there is no evidence the bug came out of (leak is another improper term at this time). Well, there is also no evidence it did NOT come out of the lab. Once you get the terms correct, you can have a rational discussion. That's exactly what the Dem-Media Complex has not wanted for 15 months.

Theories and hypotheses come in when you initially discuss HOW the bug may have gotten out of the lab. Intentional? Mistake? Accident? What sort of mistake or accident was possible at the time? Failure of containment seals due to material fault or incorrect installation or improper maintenance?

We're in the power of dunces and dupes and evil people.

319 But the upscale food place a couple of towns over sent me an e-mail saying that their employees will still be wearing masks and that they would so appreciate it if people would still wear their masks and just take them off when eating. Because of course, the virus has a mind and knows it's about to get food shoved in a human face. Otherwise it's party time for Wuhu so keep those masks on!

320 I was at Walmart yesterday. First time in about 6 months I think. Anyway, I noticed that about a third of the employees were not wearing a mask. Most of the employees working the checkout stations were, but those stocking shelves were not. Also, about a third of the customers were maskless... especially the younger people. The typical "Walmartian" was also maskless but most of the middle aged and older people still wear them.

I think the Chinese bioweapon scare and the resulting institutional lock downs have really damaged people for life.

It might not pay for her first choice of schools, but I have no doubt it could pay for or partially pay for a fourth or fifth choice. I got a partial scholarship for chorus and was sort of just f*cking around and not all that serious about the attempt. That's not saying anything about the less direct ones, like "daughter of person whose mom was a lunch lady and plays a reed instrument on Wednesdays and Fridays". Those bizarre and very specific grants/scholarships are out there for the taking.

It's amazing how much money is out there for stuff like that, even if it just pays $1000 for you to do something you'd kind of like to be doing anyway.

Clearly the dinosaurs were in the practice of migrating to one location when they were ready to die. What about carnivores killing herbivores you ask? Shut up they explained.

Well there *is* oil everywhere. We keep finding more of the stuff. Some areas are richer than others (dramatically so) but you can probably get it just about anywhere if you go deep enough and frack hard enough - it just wouldn't be economic to do so.

Nope, it doesn't. Like I said, I find it interesting and compelling but not necessarily right. It will take one hell of an experiment to find out, too, and it might not be worth doing. It could be right, or wrong, or a power of "and" thing (pure hydrocarbons polluted as they bubble up). But it is interesting.

I may be way too naive here and I really dont know much about the science.

That's because most of the oil produced in the history of the Earth has naturally migrated back to the surface and been consumed by single celled organisms. The stuff we find has been trapped by geological formations.

Given enough time all petroleum is returned to the surface or pushed down at faults and destroyed by high temperatures. If man hadn't quickly consumed all the easy to reach oil at the surface, we'd be more familiar with surface oil seeps like the La Brea Tar Pits. They were much more common in the past.

Well...to be fair. If you're a citizen of the world, then it's totally unfair that American workers make more money and live a better life than some guy doing a similar job in Pakistan.

The Great Reset is about equalizing all workers across the globe. Downward, but of course.

Except for Our Betters and the PseudoElite.

If your employees can work from home here in America, then they your employees can live in Bangladesh and work for you just as easily for much less.

399 Because the tectonic plates have shifted for millions of years long after all dinosaurs died.

The climate conditions of the fossils either preserved or destroyed the deposits or made them harder to find. Good luck discovering oil in Africa or Antarctica.

Abiotic production of simple hydrocarbons is possible under the right conditions but it's not enough to explain all the oil that's been produced.

Tectonic plate (coninental) drift needs to be factored into the possibilities. The last Super Continent, Pangea, began breaking-up about 175 million years ago. Pangea included most of the Earth's dry land at that time, and it was centered on the Equator.

The massive quantity of oil vs combined animal and plant life for one. While the fossil fuel theory is essentially debunked at this point attempts at new biotic explanations are still relatively young.

How is it that oil reserves in "dry" wells fill up so quickly again?

417 Those Tacoma cops didn't murder anyone. They tried their asses off to help the guy. They did put a knee on his back for a short time to restrain him when he was actually combative, but removed the knee soon after he started complaining of respiratory distress, rolled him onto his side to open airways, and then performed CPR on him when he became non-responsive.

There's nothing to see here. They tried to help him, this isn't murder.

If the police were using rubber bullets and flash-bang grenades against a crowd, and that crowd was peaceful, that's incitement to violence by our Govt.
