The Morning Rant: Minimalist Edition
There is something about most Jews that few non-Jews know: We Jews often ask ourselves if a non-Jew in our lives would hide us in the event of a Nazi-like outbreak. I don’t know if young Jews think about this, but nearly all Jews who grew up in the decades following the Holocaust often wondered: Would this non-Jew hide me? I have thought about this all my life because the question, “Who hid Jews?” is one of the most important questions anyone—Jew or non-Jew—needs to think about. That question is far more important than “Who didn’t hide Jews?” because great goodness is rarer than great evil and even rarer than simple moral cowardice. Yet, a vast number of books have been written attempting to understand evil, while relatively few have been written attempting to explain good.Granting the legitimacy of the moral question, it is of very little practical value, because the Holocaust, its aftermath, and the treatment of Israel and Jews by the world for the last 60 years has demonstrated that a far more important question is: How many guns do you have, how much ammo for each of them, and do you know how to use them? Israel has shown the world that a robust defense is far more important than relying on the kindness of strangers. And the world's reaction to that attitude has exposed the reality that that the world has never forgiven the Jews for not all dying in the Holocaust. My advice to Dennis Prager is to learn how to shoot, buy some guns, find like-minded Jews (they exist!) and worry less about who will shelter you and more about fighting those who would toss you into boxcars. And as the events in once free Australia are demonstrating as we speak, the ability to resist government is predicated on force, because that is the ultimate weapon of any government, and no amount of posturing and speech-making and editorializing will counter a government that is willing to use violence against non-violence. Is there a reason why in America, violent government reactions against our current freedom fighters has been tepid and bureaucratic, unlike the government thugs of Melbourne? Could it be the hundreds of millions of guns and billions of rounds of ammunition in the hands of Americans?

Gandhi and MLK's methods could not have worked against anyone but an English-speaking people, and not even all of them. It requires a moral center in the government, and a philosophy that defers to law and justice.
Are there any such governments left? I sort of don't think so.

I think this ignores the humanist movement, which isn't fair. Although at the current point, there really isn't a humanist movement, so they should probably stop beating on us every day.

No one is safe if they must rely on others for protection. They are even less safe if providing that protection breaks man's law (albeit abides by God's). Worse still is when no one left cares about God's law.
You'd think people could reason this out but very few people think anymore.

Terry McAuliffe must be in trouble.
Fairfax County public schools are suing parents who used FOIA records from the school system to publicize terrible curriculum stuff, and it's his law firm doing the suing (because McAuliffe wants no parent control over education).
I am no fan of GOPe candidates, but McAuliffe is a disgusting, evil SOB and I hope he gets creamed.

And a kind of weird aside. Watching Fifth Element for the zillionth time, I hadn't really picked up on this at first.
Leeloo has crashed through the roof of the cab, and Corbin Dallas is all like "sure I will help." And then the cops come along side and order her surrender. Dallas is all, welp, sorry, would like to help but I am turning you over to the cops.
Now, later, of course, he does help, and so you forget about that and he is the hero. For breaking MANY laws to keep her out of the clutches of the government, which totally is mishandling everything about the situation.
But that's the go to most people are going to have.

I believe I would if it would not wind up worse for them because I was suspect myself with authority. Altho depending on the proximate cause and degree of surveillance it might actually be better for them. Forest for the trees kind of thing.
I believe I would because there are passages about the Jews and those non-Jews who do right by them. God will bless those that do and curse those that do not. And that's good enough for me. I'd let God worry about keeping the searchers away.
Plus there's being able to see what happened in WWII that provides the examples both good and bad. However I'm thinking I might need to be hid soon if they really bear down on the unvaxxed and start actively persecuting them. Cause that's gonna be me. I hate that I have to make that decision but I'm pretty sure the more I read about what's happening and what's in the vaxx.

Re 14:
Gandhi records in his Autobiography his astonishment at the passivity and submissiveness of his people in not retaliating or even wanting revenge against the British: "As I proceeded further and further with my inquiry into the atrocities that had been committed on the people, I came across tales of Government's tyranny and the arbitrary despotism of its officers such as I was hardly prepared for, and they filled me with deep pain. What surprised me then, and what still continues to fill me with surprise, was the fact that a province that had furnished the largest number of soldiers to the British Government during the war, should have taken all these brutal excesses lying down."

Not the only thing Dennis Prager (and guys like Jordan Peterson) miss the boat on. I agree with both on a majority of things, but when it comes to marriage, women and inter-sexual dynamics, these guys shit the bed.
I know they are christian based but the advice for men or lack of pertaining to female nature will lead men to their slaughter. On this they do a great disservice.

49 JJS isn't here but I think one of his favorite Jews is Meir Kahane (which must embarrass his sophisticated friends and relations), who would advise not hiding at all. Nelson's dictum applies: "Shoot straighter and faster than your enemy!"

The murder of Kahane was a signpost, and we missed it. The group that conspired to kill him ended up being the core of the group that bombed the WTC in 93, and later led to 9/11.

Leeloo has crashed through the roof of the cab, and Corbin Dallas is all like "sure I will help." And then the cops come along side and order her surrender. Dallas is all, welp, sorry, would like to help but I am turning you over to the cops.
Now, later, of course, he does help, and so you forget about that and he is the hero. For breaking MANY laws to keep her out of the clutches of the government, which totally is mishandling everything about the situation.
But that's the go to most people are going to have.

Would my sister and her Jewish husband hide me? They are both very Democrat, PBS devotees. When I brought up the issue of Goldman Sachs and the bailouts on their housing gambles, while they sold their trash to their customers ... I was called anti-Semitic. So no, I would not trust them to hide me ... I mostly am incommunicado, mostly by my choice.
We do need to group together, and with churches (of all brands) being infiltrated at the top, it would be wise to build communities of support groups, based on "when did you first vote for Trump?"
Maybe that is not the best conditional, but some litmus test other than a common religion is now necessary. imo "we" still have a majority, but many are silent out of fear or ignorance. I don't see any superheroes with capes dropping in out of another dimension, so best to get prepped.

"In Darkness" is an excellent film about a man who actually hid Jews for years in occupied Ukraine-- in the sewers. It's NOT a documentary, but it's based on actual events.
In the Netherlands, the most prolific and effective group hiding Jews was a tiny fundamentalist Christian sect.

I've had to reconcile my views of right and wrong during this lockdown stuff. There were a lot of Christians that got mad at me because I said I was going to church even though the government told me not to. (But we've got to obey the government!) The government has delegitimized its authority in my mind in a lot of areas that I now recognize it never had authority.

Back in the 00s some census worker committed suicide and tried to make it look like he was murdered. I remember the left losing its shit over the notion that a government agent was killed by Republicans!
It was a bad fake - since the guy carved FED into himself from a mirror and he was a real kook.
But this struck me as odd at the time. Cops get murdered on a semi-regular basis and the left varies between not caring or being somewhat supportive.
But I think this comes to the notion that the left sees some government agents (of course most now) as being members of their team - and cares about them. Everyone else? F*ck them.

And I think it's more that they don't know WHO has the weapons and ammo that bothers them more. Sure the number is kinda of amazing but it's the anonymity of who has them that is the real ball breaker. They have no way of telling if this one or that one won't jump out blazing away.
The one thing we've managed to keep from the left. And they tried hard enough. They've pretty much ruined and watered down every other right and the 2A has had it's time of being chopped up but with anonymity and ability to acquire as many as one can afford has put it well beyond most schemes to take them and the freedom away. But it will only take a couple idiot quislings in the Senate to destroy what we have. That said it would probably be the last straw and things would go hot.

Is there a reason why in America, violent government reactions against our current freedom fighters has been tepid and bureaucratic, unlike the government thugs of Melbourne? Could it be the hundreds of millions of guns and billions of rounds of ammunition in the hands of Americans?
Perhaps. The implied potential for a violent reaction in the face of government overreach is, I think, one reason why truly draconian measures have yet to be implemented.
The problem, as I see it, is that at some point, someone is going to want to test that potential - "if we do X, will those deplorables hunt us down?" - and that is where the true line is. If the powers provoke a reaction that can be contained, then they know that all the talk about "hundreds of millions of guns" is just that.
IMO, a brutal crackdown by the government must be met with overwhelming brutality - public executions, hangings, entire families wiped out - in order to make the government think twice. Otherwise, the perception will be, as I said, that all the talk about guns and ammo is talk and that with enough pressure and isolation, we can be disarmed. YMMV, though.

Is there a reason why in America, violent government reactions against our current freedom fighters has been tepid and bureaucratic, unlike the government thugs of Melbourne? Could it be the hundreds of millions of guns and billions of rounds of ammunition in the hands of Americans?
Tepid bureaucratic action has been very effective in eviscerating our rights. Millions of people are losing their jobs because they refuse the vaccine. Vaccine passports have started in NYC and will follow elsewhere. How has the possession of guns and ammo slowed the loss of freedom in any significant way? Big talk about the robustness of our armed society in resisting authoritarianism is common on conservative websites; we are short of action.

Gandhi records in his Autobiography his astonishment at the passivity and submissiveness of his people in not retaliating or even wanting revenge against the British
Gandhi was murdered by Hindus so there was a lot he didn't understand.

But my understanding is that we have not had good luck generating vaccines to CV.
Yep. We experience a number of other corona virus infections as "the common cold". Every attempt to create a vaccine for that has failed because the virus mutates too quickly.
Note, this meshes with the notion that the original COVID jab no longer gives you protection against the current version circulating in the public.

Agreed. Just as the Jews made the great contribution to religious thought by introducing a monotheistic God to humanity, the English made the great contribution to government by introducing the Magna Carta, which made the monarchy answerable to an external body. Russia and China never adopted that tradition, so the concept of a Gandhi gaining peaceful popularity would never have occurred to them - or anyone else, for that matter.
It's a shame that the Anglosphere is turning to China, and not to its own history, for future guidance.

Would an typical American Jew hide a Bible-believing Christian in his attic?
Yeah, as bad as Jews have had it through history (and its been horrendous), Christians are in much worse shape right now and in far more danger of being hunted down and massacred. Because its happening right now as we discuss this around the world and looks plausible to happen in the near future here in this country.

IMO, a brutal crackdown by the government must be met with overwhelming brutality - public executions, hangings, entire families wiped out - in order to make the government think twice. Otherwise, the perception will be, as I said, that all the talk about guns and ammo is talk and that with enough pressure and isolation, we can be disarmed. YMMV, though.

That's exactly it. What's a person's "fuck it" threshold? At what point does their ability to use their God-given reason override their civil instruction? I have a very low "fuck it" threshold and normally and very quickly assume authority is wrong. A lot of people I know have an extremely high threshold and would be perfectly comfortable following in lockstep with authority throughout an entire holocaust.

Considering the question, "Who would hide a Jew?"
Probably very few. I think it has less to do with principles or ethics (very few people have them) and more to do with the fact that most people are unthinking, stupid animals who would be happy to see people carted off to the gallows because it pleases them to see someone who had it worse than them and makes them feel better about their pathetic little lives.
Would I hide a Jew? Jeez, as much as I would like to think I'm a moral Superman one can't honestly say until the shit hits the fan. I guess one has to ask, "Are you ready to suffer the same fate as the Jew when the men with big guns and bigger muscles come knocking down your door?" That's the real question.

So its nothing like the Germans doing it in the name of protecting their children from the evil Jews doing nebulous evil things. See?

Nope. We just have not reached the totalitarian point that Australia has gotten to. And there's no reason yet. Because Americans are lining up for the boxcars and getting the dangerous shot voluntarily. And those who are not getting it, they are being forced to choose between getting it or losing their jobs.
And 99% of people are choosing to get the dangerous shot over fighting against the tyranny and losing their jobs. No reason to resort to violence when Americans are complying like good little sheep.
See anyone fighting the mask-mandates on planes? Nope. See anyone fighting the mask-mandates for children in schools? Nope. Seeing masses of people standing together to force their employers to fire half their workforce? Nope. No need to threaten violence when people are voluntarily giving up their freedom and liberty.

In Italy during the WWII, Jews were pretty much hidden by a large number of Italians.
If you check, you find out that the Italians using the bureaucratic morass in Italy to delay the deportation of Jews for months.
In the end, few than 1000 Italian Jews went to the camps.

The Kitty Genovese story is filled with mythology but its legend does illustrate a truth: most people will turn away and hide in their homes if evil is going on around them, because its scary and hard and dangerous to be involved. That's the bigger problem.
Not "who would hide me in times of evil" but rather "who would stand by and let the evil take place before their eyes?"

Agreed, but the girl working the register in the coffee house had the most beautiful smile and I told her so. She beamed and thanked me. I could tell the masked drones behind her scowled. I hoped they were breathing a big lungful of their own toxins. Just sayin'.

A person without a face is not a person, he's a fake person and an impostor. It's why seeing large volumes of masked people makes me so angry. There are plenty of rational reasons, but those don't explain my visceral rage and desire to do violence when they approach me. My internal reaction is bigger and more powerful than the logic can explain. I think it's a form of the "uncanny valley" phenomenon for me. Those aren't people, they're ersatz fake people and those are dangerous because they're not really us - they're outsiders trying to trick me.
Those people glowering behind their masks when you complimented the real person? They know they're unreal. They're ersatz people, not real people - and the presence of a real human provides far too much contrast to hide.

Maybe we need to go back to first principles. I am not an expert on coronaviruses, and vaccines to them. But my understanding is that we have not had good luck generating vaccines to CV. We put our faith in these vaccines, but it turned out to just be faith, not science. And now the science/empirical evidence is showing they still do not work.

Here's an example. My friends are also friends with a couple of very successful surgeons in France. One of them firmly believes that the covid variants wouldn't have happened if not for the unvaccinated people (all 15% of them) catching it and allowing it to mutate. This is utter BS IMO, but that's the kind of shit they hear all the time. So even though we've all had shots, covid is even worse, so we 1) stop this crap or 2) do what everybody else is doing and hope that the 5th booster does the job. It really is putting your faith in something and hoping it's right. How much longer? Not much longer to hit the "fuck this shit" threshold if I were to guess.

I'm willing to break the law to do right. How far I would carry that is yet to be seen and based on necessity.
Posted by: squid_hunt
That is a very good and very hard question to answer. We are all looking for that "bright line" where we are willing to break the law, because we have to "do right".
These times are getting more perilous, and more of us will find it is a time to choose up and choose sides in this. And the end won't be easy.
I am glad in most ways, that Israel has become well-armed in protecting its sovereignty; no one else will. But when you get back to Roman times and "the Jewish question", ultimately, the action of the Zealots resisting Rome, ended the kingdom of Judea, got the Temple destroyed, and started the Diaspora.
So the double edged sword is, resist when you might have a reasonable chance to win, but the Zealots resisted Rome, and in reality, never had a chance to win. I admire and respect them for dying fighting (Masada, et al), but it in actuality just got a lot of people killed.

I read this elsewhere yesterday, and a comment thread under it, I forget where. Most of the comments were about Jews, and concerning if they were persecuted en masse again. I think everyone is reflexively missing the point of the article entirely, to focus on the perennial cat-laser of discussing Jews. Prager's article is an allegory for the people our State wants persecuted, and increasingly is persecuting today, who are all of us residing in the basket of deplorables. Sadly, most commenters missed the point, because their cat brains saw the laser dot and nothing else matters after that.

Yes, and they can don Jewishness like a hat when it suits their needs. When they talk about white privilege, they're not white, they're Jewish. When they can't be criticized, they're Jewish and you're a nazi. But they DON'T believe in God or follow the traditions even. They're just Marxists with a Jewish get out of jail free card in their pocket.

We got the dreaded email that our org is following the vaccine mandate. They are considering themselves as being directly under the illegal mandate that all federal contractors must require ALL employees to get the jab, regardless of WFH and with no weekly testing alternative.
So I fired off email to my bosses telling them to find out if contractors to the org have to follow the illegal order as well; and they have that time to replace me if the lawyers say the org must require their contractors to also be following the illegal mandate.
I was NOT yearning to take early retirement or set up my own business and I'm not super scared of the vaccine. I'm *29*, no possibility of pregnancy yada yada. But I am sick and tired of rationalizing just going along with commiecrat BS just to make things easier.

They forced me to choose between the jab or moving to a different position (after 23 years here). And then, even after getting the jab, they insisted that I sign a form giving them access to my covid vaccination status for the next 5 years. And the form literally says, "I hereby attest that I am signing this authorization voluntarily." I pointed out that there was nothing voluntary about being forced to sign or lose my livelihood.
They told me that because of HIPAA laws, even though I hand them my vax card personally, it's a violation for them to accept it. Seriously.

What exactly do gun-owners think they are going to do when the Democrats go full-Australia here in the USA? Are they going to shoot police officers? Are they going to shoot national guardsmen? Are they going to shoot military members? And then pay the ultimate price for that action? And possibly have their families members pay the ultimate price for that action?
The one thing that Joe Biden has stated that he is 100% correct is that American citizens have no chance against a government that brings the full force of law enforcement and military down on the citizens in the same way that Australia has done. The only reason the USA has lost almost every military engagement since WWII is because of the lack of will to destroy the enemy and win the war. There will be no lack of will to destroy and win the war the totalitarian left brings against us when they decide to do so.

like they're trying to convince themselves.

Over 2.5 Million "injuries" from the vax reported in Europe. More deaths from the jab than any of the jabs in the last 25 years combined.
Take your jab and shove it.

I saw a chart a day or two back on a 1950ish > 2021 timeline of vaccine deaths, and it's basically a flat line up until 2021 that basically looks like a giant wall. Sure, charts are easily manipulated visuals, but compared to the numbers on the Y axis, made its point. Something's not right.

"So all my Jewish friends who haven't spoken to me since they called me a racist and a fascist on Trump's election night are now begging me for a place to hide from the government they voted for?-- Hmmm. Really tough one. Let me think about this."
Right, and other friends, many that call themselves Republican. Since 70% of Jews voted Dem, and probably 40% of Christians voted Dem, framing the question in terms of "would you hide a Jew" only fits in light of WW2. Today's deplorables are Trump supporters, and more generally any that don't bow to socialism and the whole Narrative.
I'd hide AoS commenters that have shown where they stand, and I'd just as soon not know if they are Jewish or Catholic or Protestant or atheist. (Good Muslims? ... I'd need a pretty good background check on any of those). But I'd probably end up with a couple FBI "infiltraitors", so it's a tough call. Lulu would get in on looks and a smile, and end up shooting us in the back.

One each rifle, shotgun, pistol. Make and model not a big deal get one each. And ammo. Learn to shoot each well enough that you can hit at least minute of bad guy.

"So if the Jews are really wondering who would do what, they haven't been paying much attention."
Reading a history of Zionism right now and I'm up to WWI. Jews were convinced up to this point that Germany was going to be their salvation and new homeland through the 1800s and beyond. It's fascinating to consider from this side of history.

They forced me to choose between the jab or moving to a different position (after 23 years here). And then, even after getting the jab, they insisted that I sign a form giving them access to my covid vaccination status for the next 5 years. And the form literally says, "I hereby attest that I am signing this authorization voluntarily." I pointed out that there was nothing voluntary about being forced to sign or lose my livelihood.
They told me that because of HIPAA laws, even though I hand them my vax card personally, it's a violation for them to accept it. Seriously.

But other politicians can't be trusted to fight for people like the Jan 6 political prisoners. Maybe I'm wrong but I expect a re-elected Trump would immediately pardon every one of these people.

Tianamen Square back in June of 1989 showed the Chinese people what it means to be disarmed against a government that has no qualms about using lethal force: run over the protestors with tanks, hose the remains down the drain. Rinse and repeat, literally.
The founders KNEW what people were like, and that without a way for the people to check Government, it's nearly impossible to resist, much less overcome.

I think that's slightly unfair. People have pushed back, and are beaten and imprisoned for their trouble (airplanes). When that doesn't happen, they are kicked out or the people being confronted leave and then do whatever they want anyway (school boards). It isn't that no one is pushing back, it's that the consequences for doing so are severe unless one responds with force in kind. I agree that we are definitely not at that point yet.

Almost the Kama Sutra of the bible...
"your breasts are like wild roes...bunches of grapes"
"I want to drink from your well"...
Prudish Christians in the past have tried to reduce it to an allegory of love for Christ, but its what it appears to be: a celebration of love between two beloved (engaged, at least) people.

281 I saw a chart a day or two back on a 1950ish > 2021 timeline of vaccine deaths, and it's basically a flat line up until 2021 that basically looks like a giant wall. Sure, charts are easily manipulated visuals, but compared to the numbers on the Y axis, made its point. Something's not right.

You know, I saw that chart too and I was wondering about it. Is part of the reason there is such a big spike because SO many people are getting vaccinated? I mean, how many people are vaccinated in a normal year?

I'd say 10's of Millions for the flu. With COVID? More than 100 million.

What's more important that raw death numbers is the percentages. How many took the polio vaccine and died or had severe side effects?
Polio was a real disease, and everyone knew that. I was one of the people who stood in a line more than a mile long to get that vaccine the first day it was available.

See, this is what rational thinking is like. This is scary: is it true? What is the data? What is the larger picture?
That is the difference between a rational person and a person driven by raw terror. Emotion vs reason. The ability to ask "am I wrong?" The ability to critically analyze data even if it says what we want to hear or fear is true.

"Is anyone going to pull out their gun to prevent the government from forcing a dangerous, experimental and ineffective "vaccine" into their child? Not likely."
we are not at that point yet, because they are doing the "nudge nudge" incrementalism method. The shutdown did a lot of harm, and they have BigCorp pushing their agenda ... but it is not yet direct force on the vaccine, just massive pressure.
And if some patriots ever do fight back, they should do it like FBI and the mafia do, covertly eliminate key players, rather than go down shooting in the open. imo. Maybe leave a pillow over their head? ha ... but more of a French resistance, underground, carefully compartmentalize the actions. ...idk, military men would be useful.

They forced me to choose between the jab or moving to a different position (after 23 years here). And then, even after getting the jab, they insisted that I sign a form giving them access to my covid vaccination status for the next 5 years.
What's that line about "we've already established what you are, now we're just negotiating on price"?
This is what is going on. Citizens all across the world have already proven to their totalitarian governments and employers they are willing to give up their freedom and liberty. Now we're just negotiating on how much freedom and liberty will be taken away.
This is why the time to fight was with the lockdowns. As soon as everyone agreed to lockdowns, it was all over except for negotiations for more and more freedom and liberty to be taken away. Lockdowns, then masks, then "social-distancing", then "vaccines", then "vaccine" passports, then choosing between "vaccines" and losing your job. And on and on it goes, because people refused to say no to the first demand to limit freedom and liberty.

106 I would ask the other question: Will this or that Jew turn me in to the state for nonadherence to their edicts, or set BLM upon me to show how tolerant they are, or destroy my way of life and my culture for their anti-American and Marxist pursuits. The answer is often a frightening yes. Worse than not hiding me, many would actively work with fascists under the cover of Communism.

Considering that Marxism/Communism and all of its applications stem Rabbinical Talmudic Code and others are more esoteric along the lines of Kabbalah and other Mysticism, plus you have the fact 90% identity with minorities along with occupying the institutions of the GloboHomoPedo World Order America exports and forces upon our citizens along with Christians being brainwashed to believe the modern nation-state of Israel is First before anything including their own blood and fellow Christ-acceptors as God, then you already know the answer just like you know central banking is part of the Communist Manifesto.
It's all Anti-White and Anti-Christian specifically New Testament Christianity.

I don't have kids, so I'm not familiar with all the vaccines they're giving them these days. The only vaccine I can think of I've had is polio, I've not traveled to countries that require other types of vaccines, but tens of millions have. So I'm guessing that Americans under 40 have received more than one vaccination. The chart would look a bit less dramatic if the jab hadn't been delivered to so many within basically a 6 month period, but even if it were over 10 years it would still be staggering.

Exactly. Every school in the country had a student that didn't come back from summer break because they'd died. Every year. Plus those who were crippled. Every year.

That's hilarious. Set to the voiceover of DeSantis saying the won't be doing a vaccine passport in Florida, they show a syringe penetrating a bottle (presumably of vaccine), in spooky black and white, with the universal "no access" symbol (circle with line through it) superimposed on top.
Even for low-rent, low-quality American propaganda, that's asinine and stupid.

> Prudish Christians in the past have tried to reduce it to an allegory of love for Christ, but its what it appears to be: a celebration of love between two beloved (engaged, at least) people.
The LDS view on it is sex is great and fabulous and worth celebrating as long as you keep it within the bounds the Lord has set. No sex before marriage, no extramarital sex. Otherwise, have fun with your spouse! Sex is for fun, procreation, and for bringing the married couple together.

taying at an AirbnB. Bookshelf has a book titled. "Dirty Parts of The Bible".
I have long considered writing a book called "The Boring Bible" which is a presentation and analysis of the parts of the Bible Christians blush at and don't talk much about like Ezekiel mentioning how well hung the Egyptian men are, or when Paul compares works righteousness to a used tampon.
The Bible is full of shocking, salacious, and naughty parts, parts God told us but we're too shy to mention or talk about. The trick is to present it as a respectful study and not just whooo look at this!!!

People still haven't let it sink in that there is no one person who is going to fix the situation we are in, in this country and with the worldwide Great Reset. Not Trump, not DeSantis, no one.
The Left controls every institution in the country. And the vast majority of worldwide institutions. And it was proven during Trump's Administration from 2017-2021 that every institution controlled by the Left will refuse to follow Trump's orders. The military undermined him, the intelligence agencies undermined him and even the Republican Party undermined him.
People who think that if Trump or DeSantis wins the Presidency in 2024 we're somehow going to get anything done are delusional. The system is completely controlled by the Left/Deep State. There is no one person who can fix that, especially when everyone who is supposed to follow his orders, refuses to follow the orders.

The Left controls every institution in the country. And the vast majority of worldwide institutions. And it was proven during Trump's Administration from 2017-2021 that every institution controlled by the Left will refuse to follow Trump's orders. The military undermined him, the intelligence agencies undermined him and even the Republican Party undermined him.
People who think that if Trump or DeSantis wins the Presidency in 2024 we're somehow going to get anything done are delusional. The system is completely controlled by the Left/Deep State. There is no one person who can fix that, especially when everyone who is supposed to follow his orders, refuses to follow the orders.

Things do get a little...sticky...when the question is asked, "Who did Cain and Seth marry?"
My personal theory was that God created lots of human beings, but the garden was a separate distinct portion in the earth (not the whole earth) and that Adam and Eve were created to be the perfect representative human beings that God kept there. They sinned, and all humanity fell into sin, because what they did, everyone else would have in their place.
Its no more unfair for people living at the time to be cursed for Adam and Eve's sin than for people after them to be.

Cruz, Rubio, Kasich (Katshit) never would have had a chance to defeat Hillary Clinton.
Ted Cruz is a pretty brilliant guy, but is not appealing to a wide range of Republicans (outside of Texas). That's not what I think personally, but what I have heard from people over and over, usually without asking for it.
Rubio is a squish. The more you see of him, the less you like him.
Kasich is worse than a squish, he's a mean-spirited little quisling. He was my Congressman for years, and then Governor of Ohio. I saw him change into something repellant right in front of my eyes.

Pass the bipartisan bill. Jayapal can stand up and blah, blah, Bullshit her way thru a "yes, I want 3.5T+ bill too. But America's health is more important than my priorities." (see above b,b,Bullshit)
The economy continues to crater? See, we didn't spend enough. Improve? Gee, just think what it would be at if we'd spent more. Win/win.
Tomorrow's unemployment claims went up (i.e. last week). I don't think GDP next week is going to be good with supply chain issues and inflation. Unexpectedly of course.
Then negotiate with the Senate 2 on a 2.1T bill passed in spring. Run on that. And if things haven't improved. Didn't spend enough, not enough time for it to have hit the pipeline. Re-elect me.
None of this will happen of course. I am cautiously optimistic about next fall.

118 Considering the question, "Who would hide a Jew?"
Probably very few. I think it has less to do with principles or ethics (very few people have them) and more to do with the fact that most people are unthinking, stupid animals who would be happy to see people carted off to the gallows because it pleases them to see someone who had it worse than them and makes them feel better about their pathetic little lives.
Would I hide a Jew? Jeez, as much as I would like to think I'm a moral Superman one can't honestly say until the shit hits the fan. I guess one has to ask, "Are you ready to suffer the same fate as the Jew when the men with big guns and bigger muscles come knocking down your door?" That's the real question.

Ted Cruz is a pretty brilliant guy, but is not appealing to a wide range of Republicans (outside of Texas). That's not what I think personally, but what I have heard from people over and over, usually without asking for it.

Yup. I know one person who died, a man in his 80s, on deaths door for a variety of reasons.* His own daughter said his passing was a blessing.
I got the CV about 6 weeks ago. No lasting effect except maybe my sense of taste and smell. Need to get back to working out.
*Blood transfusions every two weeks etc.

My mother, who was 94, severe dementia, and had been in and out of hospital/ICU for 3 months. Anything could have done her in at that point, she was very ill. Other than that?

I tried Walker, he floundered on his border promise (supposedly his billionaire backer made the call)
Then I tried Cruz, but he missed on a few points, and largely, he came out of Bush. Cruz met his wife while they were campaigning for Bush, and his wife was taken care of (goldmanSachs, and IMF spot?) when Cruz went to Texas. Then as Trump was almost winning, Crus was backed by Bushies again ... anything to stop Trump.
Cruz still displays some Bushie syndrome signals. imo

That would mean there were some people that were not tainted by the sin of Adam and Eve, which to me would retract from all of us being sinful, unless they had their own sins too.
Everyone was without sin until Adam and Eve sinned. That then caused all humanity to be cursed because, as I said, they are perfect representatives. They sinned, all fell in sin.
So I'm not really sure why people doubted him.
Because he was clearly a New York Democrat who was fond of socialized medicine, hung out with the Clintons, and was a reality TV bombastic over the top bozo. It was obvious he wasn't a good choice until he proved otherwise.

I also feel real confident about that being the goal, and i dont buy the bluster from antigun types that theyll go house to house and confiscate weapons. I dont think even the most zealous of the "top men" would savor that job. In the end, they must talk us into voluntarily disarming. Its the only way. As long as enough people dont give up their arms, no people in boxcars. My 2 cents...

I don't have a beef with Israel, although I don't think our foreign policy goals line up with theirs nearly as much as some would like. But - here in north america there are a lot of Jews I probably wouldn't hide. Not because they're Jewish, but because they're fucking moonbats - mostly on account of where they grew up and work. They're commies for the same reasons Mormons and Amish aren't.

It isn't that no one is pushing back, it's that the consequences for doing so are severe unless one responds with force in kind. I agree that we are definitely not at that point yet.
Posted by: Joe Mannix (Not a cop!) at September 30, 2021 10:52 AM
And this is exactly my point. The consequences right now for standing up to this are light, not severe. They are severe only because not enough people are pushing back. If the news articles are correct, only 1% of "healthcare" workers are willing to be fired to reject forced drug injection. Hospitals don't give a shit about a 1% loss in workforce. But if they were forced to fire 50% of their workforce, the game has changed.
Because people are not willing to do the little it takes now to make a stand -- pull their kids out of schools, band together in high percentages daring their employers to fire half their workforce, stop giving business to any company which requires masks or "vaccine" passports -- we are all going to face a scenario where there is no peaceful stand left we can take.

I'd like Cruz as Prez.
But, he'd need to exercise right now, lose the gut, beard up cuz he looks ten times more serious with it, and spruce up his wardrobe.
Then while he's a funny guy, he doesn't a'ways let us in on the joke and the fun like Trump. He'd need to learn that.
If he did all that, I think he could go all the way. Though Trump may be impossible to beat in the primary and both Sdantis and Abbott will be tough as well.
Everyone in that group understands that the voter expect them to produce or GTF outta town.

134 With the Holocaust, it was easy to make people that weren't your blood relatives The Other. With Rwanda it was easy to do the same. Same during the Civil War, in large part. Here, it's going to be hard to raise arms against The Other when your parent, adult offspring or sibling could very well the The Other as well.
======
There was a similar wringing of hands about fighting neighbors, friends, and family preceding and during the War of Independence and the Civil War. Apparently that reluctance lasted until the fighting got under way, and then the reluctance dissipated. Most people already know where they stand, and what they'll support, it's just needing the triggering incident to get people to grab their guns. I expect to lose some friends of long standing when it gets real, and my parents won't ever understand. The price of Liberty is always high.

The Big Lie in "justifying" unjustifiable infringement of the Constitution and basic notions of a free society has been "600,000 dead."
Obviously we know deaths due to Covid are a fraction of those "with-positive-PCR" (the most "permissive" standard of counting Covid deaths).
And, we know the over 70 are the majority of deaths, and of those under 70 the vast majority had serious comorbidities.
But has anyone quantified the deaths of those DUE to Covid (e.g. using a more conservative measure, as may have been adopted by other countries) in the US. And, then stratified that by age?
I know the overall data is crap due to deliberate obfuscation by Big CDC-Pharma-Govt. But I would think you could design a study to sample from different geographical areas in the country, weight for population etc (like a good poll) and do some medical record look backs and come up with decent numbers.
I'd bet a body part that the actual "due primarily to Covid" deaths in the US are under 200K less than 100K for those under 70. That is, for everyone but the elderly (who really did get hit) it was very equivalent to flu. We /GOP needs get the real #s out there.

Are there Evangelical Jews? Are there Gelical Jews? Do they have Gelical Cats?
Posted by: Questions... so many questions.
Evangelical comes from "Evangel", which means "Good News", aka, the Gospel.
Evangelical means to spread the Good New of the Gospel. Which is what all believing Christians were commanded to do by Jesus Christ.
Now, there are likely "proselytizing" Jewish folks, but the Jews are kind of picky about who they let into their religion.

We're not just "on" the list, we ARE the list. When better than 70% of people living in this country representing religions other than Christianity automatically oppose you based on their own nationalistic visions, we ought to be asking who is hiding who, and from whom are they being hidden. White, Southern, Christians are the most hated demographic in the world. Because, IMHO, we care and we resist much of the drift toward socialism. And it's popular and inconsequential to trash talk us. I worry that all of those Trump signs in my part of the world were a wish and a hope, not a committment through thick and thin. So, long way around. ..no, not many on our side are going to hide anyone because we still think rules matter.

I story just says that Adam and Eve were the 1st and lived in Eden. I just figured that God later created other people and put them somewhere else and they just weren't important to the story.
Adam and Eve were the first humans in the direct line that lead to Jesus, which is what all the "begats" in the Bible are about.
Cain was worried that the humans outside the Garden of Eden would kill him, which is why he was given the mark to protect him from that.
Obviously there were other people outside the Garden.

About a thousand years ago no one in Christendom (at least in the British Isles) would've wondered at it. They would have told you Caine's wife wasn't a human being. She was a fairy, or a (petite) giantess, or an angel/succubus like Lilith. Their children became human and joined Adam's descendants in populating the world, making whoopee with angels, causing trouble, triggering the Flood, etc.

No surprise here, the Hiden junta has already declared their intention to purge the ranks of Trump supporters wherever they may be found. S'cool, the fewer friendly faces there are, the easier it'll be when it gets real. Besides, I think that the purge will damage morale rather than raise it, and the Trumpist troops are the better grade of soldiers right now. We'll see how the Woke Legions do when they are under fire.

Pretty much the same. I just figure Adam and Eve had a lot of kids and, at the the time, there was no moral reason not to marry a sibling. Also, the human form hadn't degenerated much yet so there was no biological reason not to. Neither of those states is in effect any longer though.

I have listened to Dennis Prager, on and off, since before he went national. Can't remember him really going in for self-defense and such. I do remember him saying that many Jews in New York kept a suitcase packed and running shoes ready in case they had to leave suddenly.
He has a lively sense of Jews as "canaries in the coal mine" for disaster in the larger society. So as we see actions against Jews today, he would see those as warnings to others as well.
He has always been an advocate of getting people, especially religious people, to agree on some basic ethical principles. He ran an "Institute for Ethical Monotheism" sparked by the first hijackings. (He sort of gave up on most Muslims eventually). And he had a weekly "Religion on the Line" program. People could ask questions.
When he talks about evaluating people he as met with the question in his mind, "would this person hide a Jew from the Nazis", it also means we need to pay attention to the deeper things that are going on in our society.
I think CBD's point is "It's later than he thinks".

I survived 2 years of it in 2009-2010 before going broke, losing my house and then miraculously landing my current job. But I don't think I could survive the stress, depression and emasculation again if I am forced into it with any "vaccine" mandate if my employer eventually enacts that policy. So thank you for reminding me that if it does come to that, I know not to return here to ask for any prayers.

Though Prager has advocated standing up to bullies. Either individually or in groups. Preferably groups of adult men.
I think he would prefer that society not devolve to the point where Jews had to gather together with guns to defend against Nazis. But if it did, I think he would still like to know who, other than the Jews he trusted, would be at least somewhat trustworthy. He has also said that conservative Christians have more in common with conservative Jews than liberal Jews have in common with conservative Jews.

Noah and his family were spared from the flood because the were the last family that was genetically purely human.

I generally love Prager, but his thinking here is "old school" and way too passive. As the daughter of a Holocaust survivor father (Mauthausen) and a mother who served in the US Army in the Philippines and New Guinea during WWII, I would never think for a second about anyone saving me - other than my two Israel-born and raised adult children. I grew up in a mixed Orthodox and secular environment in the Philly area: Orthodox schools and synagogues and a strictly kosher table, but (shhhh!) I rode my bike on Shabbat.
I actually learned to shoot (22LR) at a Jewish away camp when I was 12, and haven't looked back. I experienced Judeophobia (I'm allergic to the term "anti-Semitism") as a kid. I lived in Israel for 30 years with security and defense as a daily preoccupation. So, self-defense has always been the path for me.

I'd expect more help from observant Jews than secular Jews because I am more distant from the politics than I am Judaism--I'm Protestant.
