The Morning Report - 10/11/21

Good morning, kids. Happy Columbus Day! Today we celebrate a man (a real one) who brought civilization such as it was at that time to a savage, in every sense of that word, undiscovered part of the world. The usual suspects are prancing about in a skin-suit demanding we instead observe "Indigenous Peoples Day." We must recognize all the decent, innocent original inhabitants of the lands conquered and colonized by evil supremacist enslavers and dominators. Of course that never includes the millions mostly peacefully butchered, raped and degraded over the course of the last 1,500 years of the devotees of the "religion of peace." In any case, considering what took place between November 3rd, 2020 and January 6th, 2021 - that is, the overthrow, dispossession and concerted effort to enslave over 200 million indigenous people of the former United States of America, as a member of that group I say let the festivities commence.

"Festivities." Like being officially labeled a domestic terrorist for raising your voice at a school board meeting to protest you child's involuntary lobotomy and absorption into the collective hive mind of Marxist socialist nihilism. Or being thrown into prison and held virtually incommunicado for months on end in conditions that would make Papillon wince for showing up at the Capitol on January 6th. Worse, being shot in the back and assassinated by a uniformed goon with a badge. Or being fired for refusing to be needlessly injected with what amounts to snake oil (and highly profitable for Big Pharma at that) for what is at the end of the day an easily treatable respiratory virus (the origin and nature of it notwithstanding).

To the true believers, the mind-altered pod-people that no amount of logic, fact or reason will ever be able to reach, it is us "indigenous" Americans that are out of our minds for not accepting that men are women merely because they say so, or that your children are to be taught the wonders of anal penetration by men posing as women, that killing a baby in utero is an act of love, that there can be no wrong answer to the problem of 2 + 2 because math is racist, fossil fuels are evil, money is evil, "war is peace, freedom is slavery, ignorance is strength."

You'd have to be insane not to see this. Well, the insane are a danger not only to themselves but to society at large. And what do we do with insane people? We institutionalize them, of course.

It was from the 1940s through the 1970s, the height of the Cold War, that Soviet authorities notoriously politicized the field of psychiatry. One should always be very suspicious of any government official appealing directly to the "science." Politicians know science like they know ethics. In 1963, Russian-Jewish poet and essayist Joseph Brodsky was twice placed in a pyschiatric facility against his will, and ultimately charged with the crime of "social parasitism" (according to the lawful authorities, not making sufficient contributions to society). He was eventually expelled from the country.

The Soviet government even went so far as to make up fictitious psychological illnesses like "sluggish schizophrenia" to justify the forcible psychiatric incarceration of people who committed no obvious wrongs, but were simply brave enough to criticize the Soviet regime or to reject communism altogether . . . This is really quite normal for "law" and "order," but adding the "crazy" element to the equation (placing people in institutions Russians came to call "psikhushkas") was really the cherry on top. Using phony science to discredit and destroy enemies of the state for rejecting the state's official ideology is a quintessentially lefto-bolshevist tactic.

Which is why it is quite interesting that our own government has now entered a very similar business, a softer form of politicizing lunacy to be sure, but no less absurd or sinister. You are all probably familiar with Stuart Scheller, the Marine who famously criticized the sloppy, poorly planned, poorly conceived Afghanistan withdrawal. Our corrupt government's unconscionable treatment of the man has been nothing short of scandalous, throwing him in the brig, accusing him of a litany of crimes, and refusing to allow him to resign his post. However, what really jumped out at me was that to top it all off they demanded he get a "psychiatric evaluation." There is absolutely no evidence or reason to think there is anything wrong with Col. Scheller psychologically. None. Zero. So why would the government order him to get a psych eval? Well, Scheller thought his superiors were trying to do him a solid, maybe get him diagnosed with PTSD so that he might be found less than fully (legally and otherwise) responsible for his public statements. I happen to think that is a very naive take.

This kind of thing is never done with good intentions. Governments are not benevolent entities. This was a tyrannical assault on the state's critics, just as in the case of Brodsky, Grigorenko, and Solzhenitsyn. It is an attempt to discredit critics of power. The mention of a psychiatric evaluation taints the source of the ideas/critiques, and thereby strengthens the position of the state, especially states run by criminals. . .

. . . You see, the neo-Bolsheviks who run America and dominate all of her major institutions really think Stuart Scheller and others like him, dissidents and right-wingers and those who don't want to get the [Chinese] COVID vaccine, and "racists" and "sexists" and "transphobes," and whoever else, really are psychologically unwell. America has become a deeply polarized society and one of the consequences of that is that political differences are increasingly equated with moral shortcomings and even mental disease. So while the self-interest on the part of the Cultural Marxist elite is surely a factor, a lot of these people are true believers. Many Soviets really thought that being devoutly religious for example, was a genuine mental disorder. Many of the left-wing zealots with outsized power in America today likewise truly believe that those who reject their core beliefs are not just politically misguided, they are dangerous, abominable, and downright bonkers.

My lead-in to this excerpt is not quite right. The Left has emptied the asylums and of course the prisons all in the name of "social justice" and in doing so have made average citizens prisoners to the fear of getting on a once safe subway or worse, victims of violence. But to evil, raving maniacs like Bill DeBolshevik or Chesa Boudin, the criminal justice system is merely an extension of white supremacy that came ashore in 1492 (wait, I thought it was 1619?) and has oppressed indigenous persons and persons of color for centuries. And so we have the decriminalizing of crime and the move to abolish the criminal justice system as we know it. But it's more sinister than that. As I alluded to, unleashing actual psychos, criminals and psycho-criminals onto the streets to commit their acts, in the eyes of the Left, IS criminal justice; it is we who are collectively guilty of white supremacy, racism and oppression and so if you're robbed, raped or murdered, you had it coming. Of course, the black on black violence that has stacked up inner city youth like cordwood is to be ignored, or if possible, blamed on white supremacy.

We laugh at leftists when they bellow "follow the science" and "the science is settled." But it's not a laughing matter anymore.

There are two parts to the human dilemma. One is the belief that the end justifies the means. That push-button philosophy, that deliberate deafness to suffering has become the monster in the war machine. The other is the betrayal of the human spirit. The assertion of dogma closes the mind and turns a nation, a civilization into a regiment of ghosts -- obedient ghosts, or tortured ghosts.

It's said that science will dehumanize people and turn them into numbers. That's false -- tragically false.

Look for yourself.

This is the concentration camp and crematorium at Auschwitz. This is where people were turned into numbers. Into this pond were flushed the ashes of some four million people. And that was not done by gas -- it was done by arrogance, it was done by dogma, it was done by ignorance.

When people believe that they have absolute knowledge, with no test in reality, this is how they behave. This is what men do when they aspire to the knowledge of gods.

You don't have to be Dr. bloody Bronowski to see that what he is warning us about is exactly where we are heading.

6 Very encouraging to see the massive nationwide resistance to the tyrannical "vaccine" mandates finally happening.

Airline pilots, Air Traffic Controllers, truckers, etc. As well as troops in the military.

Hundreds of Thousands of US Military members remain "unvaccinated" against SARS-CoV-2/COVID-19: https://bit.ly/3mKYmCI

11 I don't particularly like this song (too much mumble-rapping where you can't really understand what he's saying), but love the message.

The #1 rap song on the iTunes Charts is abut opposing vaccine mandates. Sign of the backlash brewing.

Red Pilled rappers like at_HiRezTheRapper at_IAMTOMMACDONALD & at_ChrisWebby have done more to fight back against covid authoritarianism in the culture than virtually any politician.

UPDATE: Southwest Airlines pilot explains why you will not hear anything about vaccine mandates from his union - and why Southwest has more flexibility than it admits to stand up to the White House - by Alex Berenson

My flight, cancelled Friday night. There was a pilot and co-pilot in the cockpit. But only 2 FAs. We saw the luggage cart w our luggage headed back to the terminal as we were boarding. It was the most bizarre thing I have ever seen. The FAs 1st claimed it was weather, then ATC.

27 I read an article about how the Zinn educational group is working hard to destroy Columbus Day. Merrick's SIL, Xan Tanner, is in league with the Zinn people as well.

Someone posted a link to Tanner's company's site and they had a free sample offer which I got. It relied heavily on the Zinn people and one of the introductory lessons dealt with the slavers in the White House and how it's important to highlight the link between the foundation of the nation and slavery.

Sadly, they took it without any resistance whatsoever. They've been doing it for decades. Long march through the institutions. The right, up until recently, has had the attitude of "institution X is now 'woke'? Fuck 'em, let it burn". And burn they have. When the Left faces no resistance to their actions, of course they are going to continue doing it and of course they are going to continue to be successful.

It's like the shoplifting and looting being done in stores across the country where the employees, security and local law enforcement do nothing to prevent it. Had every store gone Rooftop Korean on these criminals from the get-go, shoplifting and looting would not be a problem.

78 Unfortunately Mollie Hemingway's article indulges in some tired media tropes. I like her and her writing generally but that thing is clickbait. I guess that is the way of the world though.

One of things she wrote was how "surprisingly" smart and knowledgeable Trump is about details of electoral politics. I mean I guess you can't even be a journalist on the right without the assumption that he's dumb.

Another bit was the oh he told me all this really great stuff but I can't tell you. That's more of the media is special crap.

If there was ever a functional plan for this it might pick up some support.

101 America has become a deeply polarized society and one of the consequences of that is that political differences are increasingly equated with moral shortcomings and even mental disease. So while the self-interest on the part of the Cultural Marxist elite is surely a factor, a lot of these people are true believers. Many Soviets really thought that being devoutly religious for example, was a genuine mental disorder. Many of the left-wing zealots with outsized power in America today likewise truly believe that those who reject their core beliefs are not just politically misguided, they are dangerous, abominable, and downright bonkers.

There was an old saying about not discussing politics or religion, or something like that because it divides people. One of the worst outcomes of the fear mongering, social media propaganda, pravda news, etc, is that people are not talking to each other face to face. People are so disconnected to truly socializing in traditional ways, they do not see who anyone really is.

It sort of depends. The Millennials are a pretty lousy generation (and I am one). A big filter, though, is college. The Millennials that didn't go to college are more likely to be decent than the ones who did. It's no guarantee in either direction, of course, but it moves the probabilities around - especially if college attendance started after 2008.

Go even smaller. Neighborhood to neighborhood in each city is sometimes separated by leftists and conservatives. Think about states where the Presidential election results are decided by 1%. That is sometimes the case at the city level and neighborhood level as well.

Then go through businesses and corporations. There are no leftist and conservative businesses and corporations when it comes to their employees. Sure, leadership and management and HR in the majority of corporations are leftist. But that does not mean the majority of employees are that way.

So a "national divorce" would divide every aspect of everyone's lives. People would be forced to move, forced to find new schools for their children, forced to find new jobs, etc.

Always and invariably. Both East and West have understood since antiquity that perfection is unattainable. As mere mortal creatures, our imperfect hands cannot yield a perfect work.

Utopians promise perfection, yet it cannot exist. The more it fails to exist, the more they look for face-saving excuses. The Utopian is never wrong, because to be wrong is to admit imperfection, and thus lose all credibility.

What happens next is obvious - a scapegoat is found, and the impossible quest for perfection continues.

146 Berenson received a letter from a SW airline pilot. I will cut and paste it all, but will take a few entries due to pixy rules.

1-URGENT: A Southwest Airlines pilot explains why you will not hear anything about vaccine mandates from his union - and why Southwest has more flexibility than it admits to stand up to the White House
The pilot emailed following the first Southwest post today (and provided his SWA ID to prove his identity). He asked that I paraphrase the email.
Essentially, the union cannot organize or even acknowledge the sickout, because doing so would make it an illegal job action. Years ago, Southwest and its pilots had a rough negotiation, and the union would not even let the pilots internally discuss the possibility of working-to-rule (which would have slowed Southwest to a crawl).
But at the moment the pilots don't even have to talk to each other about what they're doing. The anger internally - not just among pilots but other Southwest workers - is enormous. The tough prior negotiations notwithstanding, Southwest has a history of decent labor relations, and workers believe the company should stand up for them against the mandate.

152 2-Telling pilots in particular to comply or face termination has backfired.
Meanwhile, Southwest has more flexibility than it has acknowledged. Federal contracts represent about 3 percent of its revenue, but even the Biden administration CANNOT alter existing contracts (please note, I have not checked this, though it seems reasonable); Southwest is only at risk of losing future contracts.
This pilot believes that the fact that the airlines received $25 billion in no-strings-attached cash for "payroll support" last year (as well another $25 billion in loans) has made them particularly reluctant to stand up to the Biden administration. Southwest's CEO, Gary Kelly, may be in an especially tough spot since he is the head of the airline lobbying group.
Finally: This pilot says he loves Southwest and finds the crisis painful but feels that if this is the only way Americans can stand up to these mandates, then let the chips fall.

I wonder how these lawsuits would go if they were class action. Or if Michigan State lost 50%+ of its workforce from the mandate.

This is what needs to happen. It's easy for the left to bully one person. Whether it's an employer doing it or a judge. But when hundreds or thousands or a high percentage of their workforce is standing up to the bullying, the game is changed.

We have the vaxxed apes who keep their jobs while the lepers are banished - so they move to where they can resume work with Normals. Dittos with schools. Tired of the Neo-Marxist indoctrinations to your little reprobates? Move to a school district that isn't full out insane (if you don't want to do the right thing and home school).

The problem I see here, is that when Normals try to build their parallel economy, the rules made over the last few generations prevent new-comers into the various guilds that have built up. Look at how difficult it was for Tesla in to enter into the automotive industry. I submit, if it wasn't for the insanity of Green, Musk would have been like Tucker if he tried to make a next generation ICE.

True that. BUT* the employee can then file for unemployment compensation (UC), which is very expensive for businesses to support. Businesses pay a fixed tax rate for UC, but they also get levied a dollar percentage of every check the newly unemployed receives. If a business wants to fight the claim it goes before an arbitration panel, which will look to see if the person was terminated for 'just cause'.

This is gonna take a long time to play out, all over the country.

226 At Southwest, it's already cost them 1,800+ cancelled flights. That just might sting a bit.

To be fair, there was a massive line of storms that blew through their central operating area last night. I was watching live the rerouting, loitering and return of MANY flights. SWA was putting planes down all over the place and just about everyone was altering routes by hundreds of miles to avoid the string of storms.

I believe that she claimed to have been 16 at the time and, as I understand it, 16 is the age of consent in Europe (excluding special circumstances like employer/employee). While what he did is unquestionably scummy, are there even allegations of illegality?

310 SWISS GUARD BLOWS WHISTLE ON VAX COERCION

VATICAN CITY (ChurchMilitant.com) - A soldier who quit the Pontifical Swiss Guard as a conscientious objector to forced vaccination has penned a searing expose uncovering the Vatican's double standards in coercing guardsmen to receive the abortion-tainted jab.
"As a Catholic who follows the Magisterium, I have a duty to fight the Vatican City's vaccine mandates," Pierre-Andre Udressy wrote in an open letter published Friday night.
"How many of my dear colleagues have unfortunately succumbed to a medical treatment to which they did not give full consent, forced by force, in order to regain their freedoms?" Udressy asked. "For me, it is fundamental to defend freedom with conviction."

Udressy was one of three soldiers who quit after the Vatican quashed a rebellion of 30 conscientious objectors to the jabs in the ranks of its prestigious Swiss Guard, Church Militant reported Monday. The Vatican suspended three other guardsmen pending vaccination.

Stuff like this just reminds me that there are so many ignorant people out there who have no idea that the "vaccines" do nothing to prevent infection or spread of SARS-CoV-2/COVID-19. So someone who is "vaccinated" has the same probability of infection or spreading the virus to someone else as someone who is non-"vaccinated". So a "vaccine" mandate is nothing more than virtue-signaling.

In a sane world, every single guest would re-RSVP with a "not attending" response. I know I would. Then again, I'm an anti-social asshole who hates attending large gatherings.

319 Make the C-Suite explain why there were never any vaccine requirements before, why company policy books never had mentioned CDC recommended inoculations as conditions for continued employment. Demonstrate that there is a critical business function to having a requirement to take a Frankendrug that has proven to kill and maim employees in the stated, but failed to demonstrate purpose of saving working age people from a disease that is near 100% survivable with known early intervention protocols.

Actually, that sounds like a perfect excuse to not attend something they didn't want to attend and not come off looking like liars or assholes by imagining some excuse.

In this case, they can ditch having to schedule time and money to attend AND virtue signal their superiority, AND inject them into the wedding story. It isn't the Bride's Day, its the Conscientious Objector to Mingle Among The UnVaxxed Day to make the wedding about them.

341 I witnessed the most pronounced spectacle of Karenism I've ever seen yesterday.

There was a meeting for parents of children going through their First Communion. The congregation in church that morning had been about 95-5 unmasked, but this meeting was about 60-40 masked (roughly 15 people). Amongst those masked at the meeting were a pair of sisters that have children that Junior had gone to pre-school with. I hadn't seen them since the start of the pandemic when we moved away from that part of town and they stopped going to church.

The meeting went normally for about fifteen minutes, and then it suddenly devolved when the director of religious education handed out a book for the children. A pair of pages for each Sunday until the big day, she said that it would be good to get the children to get the priest to sign it every week.

"My children aren't vaccinated, and we're unwilling to sit next to people who aren't masked," says one of the two sisters.

The next thirty minutes were a back and forth between the sisters, a couple of others, and our unmasked director, barely keeping it together and outright wishing the Monseigneur would show up like he probably should have.

350 'Third World' NYC drug store shelves empty amid shoplifting surge

Thanks to a citywide shoplifting tsunami, bare necessities are now rare luxuries on drug-store shelves across New York City.

"It looks like the Third World," bemoaned one Manhattan resident, after eyeing the aisles of a CVS on Sixth Avenue in Soho desperately low of toothpaste, face wash and hand sanitizer, among a long list of other items.

"They've all been stolen," a CVS employee told The Post.

State bail reform laws make shoplifting a promising career option for some New York City crooks. One man, Isaac Rodriguez, 22, of Queens, was arrested for shoplifting 46 times this year alone, The Post exclusively reported last week.

"You're making me feel like a bad parent because I don't want them to go to church with people who are unmasked."

I mean...yeah. Your mask, which doesn't seem to protect you but you demand of other people, wasn't good enough when everyone needed to be masked a few months ago and you didn't come. COVID has broken your brain, and you probably need to find a psychologist who will help you get over that.

there is also a type of brainwashing in California about leaving California for the other states... I lived there a very long time and felt it. But took the leap. Never looked back. You live in a huge bubble there. Hollywood playing a big part of it.

388 The times are a changing. Comfortable GOPe types should no longer be tolerated.

Grassley shows up at a Trump rally, and then doesn't show up when it comes times to vote against putting a terrorist in charge of public lands, or a communist in charge of bank regulation.

Graham, sadly, has never got to the bottom of anything he swears he will get to the bottom of, and instead, he tolerates every lefty outrage. Whose side are you on, Senator?

389 There are two parts to the human dilemma.

The dilemma boils down to the fact that we're universally wicked but want to see ourselves as good, and only God's intervention allows us to be good in any significant way. Those of us for whom He does intervene tend over time to take that intervention for granted and forget its necessity, and those left to their own devices redefine their wickedness as 'good.'

Posted by: Hadrian the Seventh



Sure, if they just fire you without talking about it first. If you tell someone they have to take the Jab or lose their job, then fire them, that ain't the same thing as just firing someone because you can.

I grew up in Hollywood. I left four years ago. When I find myself missing it I realize that what I miss is no more. But it was a wonderful place once. I was fortunate to have experienced that.

394 It relied heavily on the Zinn people and one of the introductory lessons dealt with the slavers in the White House and how it's important to highlight the link between the foundation of the nation and slavery.
________________

That's so f*cking stupid it boggles the mind.

The U.S. was NOT founded to perpetuate slavery. That is a ridiculous lie that is flatly contradicted by the historical record.

Furthermore, even though slavery did exist for a time in the U.S., as it had existed in pretty much every other country on the planet since the beginning of human existence, it was the U.S. that began to question the morality of the practice. It was U.S. abolitionists and their writings who inspired the abolition movement in Europe, and eventually brought about the end of slavery in the west.

Teaching our kids that our nation is somehow illegitimate because of slavery is the most outrageous, slanderous, nonsensical bullshit the left ever concocted. The U.S. played a leading role in ending slavery in the west, and it should be celebrated and praised for doing so.

I'll only raise a small quibble with Mr. Hanson. The Left took what they wanted. They didn't "get it" or "win it" in the traditional sense. They stole it. Period.

Grahamnesty has been a despicable piece of shit since at least 2006 when he, President Bush and John McCain tried to ram through amnesty. If we are sitting here *15 years later* and still wondering why Graham is a despicable piece of shit, that's on us. Fool us once, shame on you. Fool us twice, shame on us.
