Intersectionality At Its Best (Or Worst): Angela Davis Speech Is sponsored By "Students For Justice In Palestine," "The GW Black Student Union," And "The GW Feminist Student Union"

You have to hand it to good old Angela Davis; she is quite inclusive in her vicious Marxist politics. She'll take money from anyone on the Left if it pays for another opportunity to spout her racist, anti-Semitic, anti-American pseudo-philosophy. Angela Davis attacks Israel, prisons in speech at GW

As Davis began, she asked the audience to “recognize that we are on colonized land,” saying, “as we talk about solidarity with occupied Palestine, remember the United States of America is also a settler colonial nation.”

What has always impressed me about the hard Left, and Davis is a wonderful example of this skill, is their ability to ignore the very words they use, and create new meanings that dwarf the reality of the history they are tormenting and twisting.

Yes Angela, America was settled. By many people, starting with the Indians for whom you feel such empathy.

“We say no to Israel’s ethnic cleansing strategies. In standing up against the racism of the state of Israel, we are passionately saying no to anti-Semitism as well,” she argued. “This is supposed to be the dismantling of the era of Israeli occupation of Palestine. It has been long and coming.”

It sounds fervent and impassioned, but completely ignores the reality on the ground. And also forgets about the ethnic cleansing of 99% of the Jews in Arab countries.

But here's my favorite:

“I don’t consider myself a prison reformer; I consider myself a prison abolitionist,” she began, declaring that “reform doesn’t work,” because “the more reformed it has become the more repressive it has become.”
Moreover, she argued that prison is a “gendered institution with a gender binary structure,” and that the “abolition of the prison will also entail the abolition of gender policing.”

Orwell would be impressed.

There are more marvelous little tidbits in the article, but I have already excerpted too much. Take a look, especially the part about LGBTQWERTY..it's great!

34 There was just an article linked-I think-at Instapundit-from the LA Times about how the LA crime stats are 'confounding experts'-arrests dropping off a cliff and reported crimes on a steep rise. How police-now the subject of protests and crime themselves thanks to BLM- will literally not bother with arresting criminals for 'minor crimes'-which includes drug crimes and petit larceny up to $950-and criminals know it, they'll be released within hours if they manage to get arrested, and forget it if they are illegal. Most car accidents in LA are hit and runs, with no consequences. CA is turning feral and the citizens are not allowed to take any steps to protect themselves, their families or their stuff. And the state is hell bent on emptying prisons to relieve the inhuman overcrowding....And the average Joe on the street (not the High tech millionaires and Hollywood elite) are now targets. Unbelievable and absolutely predictable.

It used to be that a dignitary tossed the "ceremonial first pitch" from a box seat in the stands to a catcher standing ten feet away. That worked fine for decades. I don't know when it became standard for the pitch to be thrown from the mound to home plate. I think it's ridiculous, and makes almost anybody look bad.

83 Cultural Marxism was not designed as some "better way". It was engineered to destroy the ties that bind Western Civilization together ... heritage, tradition, religion, family, etc.

So the common cause was easy ... "The Man is keeping us down". But now THEY are "the man". With Obama they got everything, pretty much the same with the EU and UN. All the big bankers meet with Hillary and keep secret her globalist schemes. CFR and the shadowy deep state have their own agenda developed outside the confines of regular process.

So their "intersectionality" of common cause now depends on the total destruction of what is left of the "West". They had power but demanded tyranny over the deplorable that grows their food and fixes their plumbing. They are stuck with demanding we give MS-13 safe zones, and that jihadists be imported and given everything free.

The banana republic of Italy has a story to tell.

Porn privacy?

PornHub -- ~#40 most trafficked website on the Internet. All roads lead to PornHub.

When (almost) everyone is guilty, no one is guilty.

They want to sell my history to some vendor based on that? I can't even imagine how my propensity toward viewing lebanese pron is going to give some vendor a 'leg up' (or four actually, if the scissor) on what I want to purchase.

Nixon was also obsessed with football.

One of the truly weird episodes of Campaign '68 occurred when Nixon spent a few minutes chatting in the back of his limo with fellow football fan Hunter S. Thompson.

HST brought up an obscure play that had stuck in his memory, and Nixon immediately knew what he was talking about, down to the individual player, and laughed, and whacked Thompson on the knee, and said, "That's right, by God! The Alabama boy!" *

happy with just stopping Trump, he must be driven from office and his
supporters identified, marginalized, criminalized. This is going to get
worse, far worse before it gets better, if it ever does."

Out here on the left coast, the major metro dailies have been steadily hemorrhaging paid circulation, getting smaller every week, and becoming increasingly more desperate in their canvassing.

They've latched on to hysterical editorial jeremiads as a lifeline that might bring in those crucial few additional subscribers, since urban liberals around here are freaked the heck out over Trump.

I got a solicitation from the _Scum Scamfrisco Comical_ the other day prominently stamped with the words"DEFEND DEMOCRACY. SUPPORT JOURNALISM".

George HW and Barbara had seats behind the catcher at Astro's games. When the Astros were in the NL, the Reds played them frequently, and watching on the TV, George HW and sometimes Barbara were always sitting behind the plate. This was at Minute Maid (Enron) field, and at the Astrodome before that. I think they are now too old and sickly to go to games anymore.
Bush 41 played 1st Base at Yale, I think. Good field, not much of a hitter was the scouting report.

190 Angela Davis is still something of a dangerous person. Her empty babble is still incitement to violence.
Violence is what the Marxists always want.

Hitler recognized that underneath every Bolshevik in Germany was a potential Brownshirt, and he knew his own Brownshirts weren't much different than the Bolshies.

Fascism is always a silly and slippery term to define National Socialism, because Fascism at heart was always about national unity. Thus named from the fascia, the binding of the staves to form a bundle, stronger than standing alone.

Politicians of all stripes are always calling for "national unity" for this or that cause or political cause or movement. So does any politician that calls for "national unity" a fascist?

So where exactly does Angela Davis want to put all the people she would make political criminals if there are no prisons? Erect the guillotine again, this time on the National Mall, and put all the "reactionaries" on the chopping block?
And make no mistake, if Angela Davis and people like here gained real political power, the streets would run red with blood.

Which is why the preeminent hospital for sex changes (John Hopkins) stopped performing them. It didn't change the suicide rate by a significant factor downward.

238 Video game comment -

The Japanese RPG Persona 5 is coming out in the West on Tuesday the 4th (it was released in Japan late last year). The game's getting rave reviews, for the most part. The series is a rather odd one that mixes Jungian ideas with supernatural horror (and the Persona games are the upbeat sub-series of a much bleaker overall series of loosely related video games). To give you an idea of the odd themes that turn up in the games, both Persona 2 games (long story) focused on rumors becoming real, while Persona 4 focused on saving people who had been thrown through a television into an alternate world.

It makes sense in context...

Anyway, the series caught on in Japan with Persona 3, and it caught on everywhere else with Persona 4. Now Persona 5 is out, and the reviews - both by critics and players - are overwhelmingly positive.

Let me amend that - *mostly* positive.

Apparently the game doesn't talk about LGBT issues *AT ALL*. And we all know how horrible of a thing not talking about LGBT issues is.

239 Whether prisons or penitentiaries, the movie's director is saying the 13th amendment continued slavery, by making blacks criminals? or something.

Because they don't have agency. They're just leaves floating along on the stream of life, pushed hither and yon by forces unseen that they don't understand, much less control. Anything and everything that happens to them is down to someone else, unless it's good, in which case it's 100% their doing.

242 It includes lots of interviews with his wishy-washy loser parents who are "proud" and "OK with it."

At one point there are quick shots of tweets saying "Kill yourself" and "Burn in hell" then we get shots of his parents weeping horribly (rather like children).

Parents weeping IS NOT AN ARGUMENT!

--------------------

You can't. The reason why they're demanding the phone number is so that they can use it to contact you to provide you with a code that you can then use while logging in so that you can prove that you're really you (because as we all know, hackers are drooling - absolutely *DROOLING* - at the prospect of hacking your YouTube account...).

Most websites allow you to choose whether to use an e-mail address or a phone number for this. YouTube doesn't.

Never underestimate the ability of parents to fall in line with whatever their children want to do.

Parents who don't do this are severely demonized. Some friends of mine just told me of a gay kid at their daughter's college, and they were STUNNED that the gay kid's parents were NOT OK with him being gay!

They were horrified that the parents cut off his tuition money!

And they were horrified when I replied, "I'd like to know how that went down. Did the kid snottily tell them that he's smarter and more enlightened than they are?"

The leftist leadership/shock troops seem to consist of 3 types of people:

1) The mentally ill

2) Wannabe fascists

3) Mentally ill wannabe fascists

Good summary. I would throw "wannabe mentally ill fascists in there". Applies to those who want their shitty anti-social behavior and nasty disposition to be explained away by "personality disorder". As if free will doesn't even exist.

252 So the girl goes to a way liberal college, she is smart, always had good grades. She is attractive, feminine and smart.
She comes home for spring break and tells her parents that she wants to be a man.

The hardest part is learning to oppress women. It takes years to get that down. You've gotta start with oppressing little girls, then work your way up to the big club.

254 So where exactly does Angela Davis want to put all the people she would make political criminals if there are no prisons? Erect the guillotine again, this time on the National Mall, and put all the "reactionaries" on the chopping block?
And make no mistake, if Angela Davis and people like here gained real political power, the streets would run red with blood.

This.

As indicated previously, I actually know her, and I have no doubt whatsoever that she was involved in the Marin County courthouse shootout up to expansive Afro, and that given a chance she'd make Che Guevara look like a pansy.

263 between no law and too many laws, there is a civilization sweet zone where it is possible for people to get things done. When the number of people involved exceed about a thousand, if you're in the civilization sweet zone, there are going to be jails of some kind.

The left likes to think there are a lot of alternatives to prison. Unlike a broken kitchen appliance, humans aren't that easy to fix. Habit is a scary thing. Perhaps if you put criminals in prison for ten years, you get more dangerous criminals out. But. Well. They're ten years older. And that is also ten years they weren't doing the sorts of things that got them there in the first place. Like everything else, prison has a lot of cost/benefit going on in it.
