Human Rights Watch Declares Donald Trump a Threat to Human Rights
"No comment," said a drone-bomb President Really Good at Kill-Lists ordered to kill an American citizen.
I don't really care about that much, but shouldn't these lunatics?[A]ccording to HRW, anyone who supports repeal of Obamacare or is pro-life is a threat to human rights. Good to know. Meanwhile, the report eventually gets to the U.S. use of drones. President Obama, who approves every target and is therefore directly responsible for the loss of life described here, barely gets a mention, much less a scolding...They bring that up as an avenue of threat that Donald Trump presents, without actually saying much about the guy who bragged about being really good at drawing up kill-lists.

At a CNN town hall Thursday night, Jeff Jeans, of Sedona, Ariz., told Paul Ryan that he was a lifelong Republican and a small-business owner who had previously worked for President Ronald Reagan and President George Bush. Jeans said he was initially adamantly against Obamacare.
Jeans recalled how he was diagnosed with a "very curable type of cancer" at 49, and told he only had six weeks to live. He was denied treatment, he continued, because he didn't have an insurance card - even though he offered to pay three times the cost.
"Thanks to the Affordable Care Act, I'm standing here today, alive," he said.
"I want to thank President Obama from the bottom of my heart, because I would be dead if it weren't for him," Jeans said, receiving applause from the audience.
Isn't it odd how they have been Republicans since Lincoln but Republicans are the worst thing ever and Barry the greatest? What kind of very curable cancer has you dead in 6 weeks?

I don't necessarily think it has to be that way.
Trump handled it perfectly with the CNN reporter. Scolded him like a child. Then ignored him.
I know from 15 years at a militant leftist job that you CAN ignore politics at a job. So it can be done at work.
Personally, I've purged the batshit liberals from my life and could not be happier.

It's a sliding scale, I think.
At the top are mostly those who don't believe anything but will say anything to acquire more power.
The further you go down the hierarchy, the more believers you acquire and the fewer power mad freaks you retain.
At the bottom it's pretty much all true believers.
For example, I do not believe that Nancy Pelosi thinks that allowing bakers to say no to gay couples is the same as Jim Crow. Those who rally and vote for her and donate $20 whenever they can for her very well might.

I amend my take:
Kamala Harris could be a true believer, and true believers are becoming more common in the upper echelons of the left. But I think, when it comes to battier things like gay cakes, it's largely just a front in support of increasing political power.
Not to mean that they don't believe anything. I'd be shocked if someone like Pelosi didn't actually believe that socialized medicine was fantastic. It also just happens to feed the desire for more centralized power. Coincidence in that regard.
Posted by: TheJamesMadison at January 13, 2017 03:54 PM (zdM/+)
But this is exactly what the liberal strategy for expanding government was built on. If you read the book byRobert Creamer's, the real architect of Obamacare and Obama's amnesty programs, about how to implement these programs, the first step was to convince people that these things were indeed about human rights. If you have a right to health insurance, how could anyone not support government providing it for free?
Once you get over that hump it's just a matter of defining what the programs will look like.

These days you see the term "fascist" thrown around with ease. I've never really been able to pin down a good definition of fascism, so I looked it up. Big mistake. The definition seems to be whatever the user wants it to be, as long as it's a pejorative.

A political and cultural system by which some elements of the right (cultural tradition, respect for the military, and nationalism) are combined with many elements of the left (central government control of the economy in cooperation with the largest corporations, heavy regulation of business, elimination of religion, etc) in an attempt to find a "third way". Science is heavily emphasized, with Darwinism as a guide for cultural and social structure as well as eugenics for purity of humanity. Fascist proponents consider their system to be the most scientific and proper way of ordering humanity to a better future.

Most of Trump's cabinet picks have been a conservative's dream. I must admit, I wasn't expecting it.
Ironically, I wonder if the constant "NAZI!" shouting by the left hasn't pushed Trump farther to the right than he otherwise would be - not because he's an ideologue, but because "f you!" And also because he's seeing what the left is.

I would quibble that the eugenics is used as a means to *defeat* or, better, *harness* Darwinism, though. The Progressive accepts Darwin like he accepts thermodynamics. he does not believe in furthering natural Darwinism, which he views as entropic (Idiocracy).

Everyone wants money for nothing. The reason we can't just give everyone a trillion dollar coin is because we don't have infinite resources.
I've found members of the left and the GOPe are very good at justifying their handouts and arguing that handouts for others are bad.
Traditionally the check on this graft model of government is that the taxpayers elect the people and government and will because of their own self interest kick out elected officials when said officials and their clients get too greedy.
That hasn't happened primarily because the government has gotten VERY good at hiding how much they are spending on handouts and how much they are taking in taxes and other means.
But we are reaching the end of the ability of the government to do that and we are going to have to start cutting off large segments of the dependent class.

I didn't want to push that too far, because the Falangists, for instance in Spain, weren't too big on Darwinism per se. They presented themselves as sort of super Catholics, even.
But the German Nazis were all about using Eugenics to create the superman to advance Darwinism, while Italy didn't care much about any of that. They were racist as hell, but didn't see an Italian genetic superman so much as just the revival of Rome as a superpower.

It's a political appointment. Bush appointed him. Barky let him ride. Now? It's a huge FU from a petulant pussy of a man boy.

====================
Relating this to the Democratic Party specifically, I think that the standard wisdom on the left right now is that doubling down on identity politics and the inherent tactics of that outlook is the best key to future success. I think that this is because they approached this election as in the bag, and they've been caught completely flat footed by Trump's win. They've had no time to process what could possibly have gone wrong, and with the constant news cycle, and their obsession with winning it/undermining Trump at every turn, they're not going to have time to process it for a while.
I think this will continue into the 2020 cycle no matter what happens in 2018. If they give up a 60+ supermajority to Republicans, it'll leave only the craziest of the crazies in charge. If they squeak by with a shockingly good night and Republicans only come away with a 54-55 seat majority, the left will be convinced that their identity politics method still works.
The only thing that could possibly wake some of them up is a loss in 2020. What happens afterwards I, of course, don't know, but I'd expect a very large and public airing of grievances akin to what Republicans went through from 2008 to now.

There's an Internationalist element to The Borg, which is growing. Which is why there's a connection between Brexit and Trump's win, both huge setbacks for The Borg.
The face of The Borg is Nurse Ratched. The end is to have everything run by a big politically correct HR department.
It's not that just that some members of The Borg are more equal than others. It's that The Borg disdains many Americans -- what Hillary let slip with her Deplorable Irredeemable remark.

However, I think you're taking a national view to very local elections. I'm betting that there are a fair number of conservative Democrats in some swingy districts who could be pushed into running. State senators, prominent business people, mayors.
That would require the national party allowing heterodox views from swing district Democrats, which seems to be something that they won't do but they always could turn around and say, "We need something more than the northeast and California, and we have to allow Ohio type Democrats in Ohio."

in Spain, weren't too big on Darwinism per se. They presented
themselves as sort of super Catholics, even.

Because in Spain the Falangists were a reaction to their local leftists trying to destroy the Catholic Church and anyone that had a traditionalist outlook.
The leftist government was beating people in the streets, and in some cases murdering them.
The sort of reaction they got wasn't really surprising, though frankly they lucked compared to what was going on in the rest of Europe by various revolutions, counter revolutions, and changes of power...

Nancy parlayed Bush hatred in 2006, which was genuine because many believed that he fucked up with Iraq.
Ds have no opening if Trump doesn't fuck up.
Ds huge weakness is that they're Democratic in name only. There's an Inner Party of a few key politicians, money people like Soros, and the Players like Podesta who call the shots. Might be fewer than 100.

Trump had to overcome a lot of inertia from reluctant voters. The next election he wont have that problem. All he has to do is make good on his promises.
If does that it, a 2nd term should be in the cards.

retroactively for the precise minute after his inaugurated in the here
and now.
Trump did that with US ambassadors - notified them that effective January 20th they are recalled.

What Trump says will happen juxtaposed to a general getting fired in the here and now is far far different, IMHO.

Yeah, the effort between 2004 and 2006 to give the government to the Ds was amazing.
If you took someone from say 2003 and transported them to 2007 I don't think they could have believed the changes.
Pelosi didn't really do much of the heavy lifting - that was more Soros, Stewart, the Saudis, and a number of other nefarious parties.

Also remember that between 2006-2008 the Democrats did basically nothing despite controlling both houses of congress.

Amazing how a united Congress can only do so much against a president of the opposite party.

Amazing how if you try nothing, then nothing happens. Not even a protest vote or censure.

Maaaaybe a melanoma if it hasn't gone beyond the skin. Though I think they have a treatment that will keep you alive longer.
But that stuff about a hospital that won't take cash, particularly in a non-emergency situation? That would be Sacred Heart of Imaginary Bullshit.
