Megyn Kelly Desperately Grovels to her New Friends on the Left After Committing Wrongthink [Warden]

Apologizing out of her... wherever.

The quivering lip was a nice touch. And here I thought this broad was tough. Well, there's a cost to everything, Megyn. You've only yourself to blame for your willing humiliation.

“I’m Megyn Kelly. And I want to begin with two words — I’m sorry,” the Megyn Kelly Today host said as she fought back tears. “You may have heard that yesterday we had a discussion here about political correctness and Halloween costumes, and that conversation turned to whether it is ever OK for a person of one race to dress up as another — a black person making their face lighter or a white person making theirs darker… I defended the idea.”

She added: “I was wrong and I am sorry. One of the great parts of sitting in this chair each day is getting to discuss different points of view. Sometimes I talk and sometimes I listen, and yesterday I learned. I learned given the history of blackface being used in awful ways by racists in this country, it is not OK for that to be part of any costume, Halloween or otherwise.”

Al Roker then took the opportunity to kick her while she was down, demanding that she apologize further to all "people of color" and also America.

I'm not going to lose any sleep over Megyn Kelly's treatment--she willingly threw in her lot with these cretins after all--but I do have a few questions.

First, who elected Al Roker to High Priest of Forgiveness. And second, why is there any need to apologize at all?

Megyn Kelly is literally paid to have an opinion. That's what these shows are about--conflicting viewpoints--and that is her role. It is, then, to be expected that she or others might sometimes take a position that a significant part of the viewership might find distasteful.

She insulted no one. She belittled no one. She harmed no one. She simply offered an opinion and an argument.

But argument in this culture is no longer a vehicle with which to establish truth, standards, or the best way forward. Rather, it is used as a means of establishing who is the better person.

There are good people with their good opinions and bad people with their bad opinions and that is that.

We've gotten quite used to these modern day struggle sessions--the blubbering, the self condemnation, the begging--but even as we cast a cynical eye toward the gleeful mobbing of any who dares deviate from current year left-wing groupthink, it's easy to forget what a healthy approach to disagreement looks like.

Let's say, for the sake of argument, that Kelly got it wrong. If the purpose of argumentation is to convince and convert others to your position, then wouldn't her change of heart be cause for celebration?

We've changed the attitude of an influencer! Hooray! We're making progress in winning others to our point of view. Good news, indeed!

That is the attitude that healthy, mature adults would take, but notice that this isn't ever what happens.

No, leftists remain outraged even after apology and contrition--angry that the heretical thought ever dared exist at all.

This twisted reaction has its roots in Leninism where spoken heresies earned you removal from the party-- stripped of rank and power if lucky, a bullet delivered to the head in some dank basement if unlucky, worked literally to death in the gulags if unluckier still.

The brokenness of this malicious method of establishing "correctness" (for it cannot be considered a quest for truth) is compounded by the precarious, ever shifting landscape of what is deemed appropriate expression. Power decides what is permitted to be spoken and what is not. But we often do not know who has that power until the disagreement has been fleshed out. And because an argument always must have at least two sides, one position will always lose and thus be condemned

It is eliminationist in both deed and thought, stunting and stifling the ability to think and reason en masse.

A healthy, robust society would have very few intellectual taboos. A rotting one has innumerable ones. The reaction to Megyn Kelly's apparent heresy has nothing whatsoever to do with thought or reason. It is simple will to power travelling a bent path of unearned self-righteousness.

Here are the words to be uttered that make you the better man, my faithful NPCs. Tomorrow there will be others. Some will be dropped, others added. Be sure to tune in and do not unplug! For to unfailing say the correct things at the right moment is to be saved. To do otherwise, no matter the reason, is to cast oneself into the lake of fire.

Update: Remember when we could laugh at things?

33 Andrew Klavan made a great point on this today.

Al Roker is from another generation. It is wrong for him to impose his memories on younger people who were not yet born when America still had systematic and open racism.

He gave an example of his Jewish father who absolutely hated Germans. But his father did not pass on that hatred to him.

We should always remember history, but we should never be imprisoned by it. Times change continuously. It is not good for the psyche to have one's mind continuously mired in injustices in the past, a past when one did not exist.

Sure, blackface was bad. But I'm sorry, anyone dressing up as Tina Turner and trying to look more like her by darkening their skin clearly admires her.

These people want to tear the country apart.

(Let's not talk about black women straightening their hair wearing the actual hair of Indians as weaves, not on Halloween but on a regular basis. No, that's exempt from "cultural appropriation".)

34 This is why I look forward to an asteroid slamming into our planet, and eliminating all life. More and more it looks like life on this world was a failed experiment.

We've gone from celebrating achievement to celebrating victimhood--with victimhood to be richly rewarded for being history's loser. These sorts of things would be inconceivable in an intelligent, civilized society. But they are part and parcel of ours.

The "victims" fangs gleam redly in the rapidly fading light. Their lust for blood cannot be slaked.

There is nothing forward.

First off, I really want to apologize to Insomniac because I kind of
went off on him last on the ONT. I was wrong and it was inexcusable. So
Insomniac, I hope you accept my apology. Now for a sliver of good news,
at least for me. The surgeon who is going to do my surgery called today
to say that the tumor in my mouth looks to have not attached itself to
my jaw. I get to keep my jaw. I am going into surgery Monday AM to
remove the tumor on the floor of my mouth, so I may be missing for a
bit. I want to thank all of the Horde for their prayers, and most of all
I want to thank Fenelon. She was a huge comfort when I needed it most.

96 The best Halloween party I ever went to, 1999, I wore whiteface and dressed in a cloak. I was trying for the Emperor Palpatine look. Got my pic taken with a Maul / Amidala couple; with some black chicks too.

In my younger days I was very blond headed. My best friend was a pure blooded Filipino whose parents had come here in the 70s. We would go as Johnny Quest and Hadji, except he'd put on a blonde wig and be Johnny and I'd go as Hadji.

This country used to be so much fun before the Handmaid Tales folks took over.

Oak Park MI banned clown costumes :

According to a news release issued by city officials, the initial ban was instituted because over the last few years many parents had said they "were concerned their children would see clown costumes and relate it to scary movies that are targeted for an adult audience."

Apparently parents raised hell, and the ban was lifted.

168 Hello Horde.

Yes, this is me in the prayer chain.

I am writing to ask for your help. To be clear, I asked for and received help once already, in early July. I wanted all to know that. Circumstances are such that I find myself needing ask another time.

10/23-Calm Mentor is battling an infection that came from an abscessed tooth and could use all the help he could get. He is going through a very difficult time right now. He has a new GoFundMe page:

https://www.gofundme.com/help-with-time-to-find-employment


The campaign tells the story, but this is my situation:

I am partially handicapped, with limited mobility and only 25% use of my strong right arm. Up until June, I was still able to drive for Uber, and did so for over a year. I was deactivated as a driver at that time.

My only family is a brother who I was helping financially while working. My "friends", I found, consisted of those from a marriage of 17 years which ended three years ago. I havecbeen turned down for welfare benefits because, as reported, I made too much money this year to qualify. I applied for SSDI in July, and am awaiting their first denial, as I'm told this is their standard practice.

While working, I had built up a small reserve of money, one that was used up recently to pay an oral surgeon to treat a badly abscessed tooth.

I have been everywhere in applying for jobs, and in the past 3.5 months have only gotten 3 days of good freelance work, and 5 days of temp work. I will find something, as failure is not an option. In the meantime, I am looking at homelessness next week. This is the reason for my request. Anything you could do would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you for listening, and I have put my email in my nic if anyone would like to contact me off of the board. I will post this once only per thread for today and tomorrow. Be well.

Here's a review that recalls the Slate/Salon "nontroversy" against Downey's role, after the movie had been screened anyway, and Downey's performance remembered as a highlight:

I made the comment the "people of color" is an incredibly stupid term that I find offensive. How is it different from "colored people"?

I am black - different from Arabs (Caucasians), Hispanic (many of whom are Caucasians), Indians, Asians, etc. We all have different concerns and issues, generally speaking. And we all look very different. Yet, we are all lumped together, while white people get to have their own category all to themselves. Does this not play into white supremacy?

I don't know why African Americans go along with this nonsense. They were the original "colored people" and actually have a history of slavery and oppression in this country. And then some Korean chick gets to share the same POC label.

I am against tribalism, anyway, but this just goes to show how the whole thing is a farce.

I don't think white people got together and decided to call each other white.

I never thought about it except when someone was making a comment about Blacks and had to differentiate the other people from them by calling them White.

I think it was about the time of the jim crow protests in the south? Maybe mid '50's thereabouts.

Never thought of myself as white or anybody I knew as white. I'd heard talk of coloured folks but they lived in another city and not where I grew up. Only saw them on TV.

And If I had a say in the matter, I would protest extensively on all us people of Caucasian decent being called white. I know plenty of folks that are browner than some Blacks I've known and they would be called White.

So I don't think it's anything to do with white supremacy. Most of them use Caucasian or Aryan when referring to their race. And I always wondered how Africans felt about being lumped in as Blacks. As I understand it most don't like American Blacks much. I wouldn't know tho.

References to color only seem to be necessary when someone is pointing out negative characteristics of the person being spoken about. That's telling I think.

Megyn Kelly is a very comely woman (especially now that she's grown her hair back out to a woman's length, somewhat...at least appropriate for her age), even with her ugly inside.
But I had hopes to see whether she was a pretty cryer (like Liv Tyler).

I was making a rhetorical point about white supremacy. The people who want to divide us using race give the hated white people their own group but then lump the rest of us together. They are engaging in white supremacy. (I'm being kind of silly, but also making a point.)

It's like when I say that BLM also plays into white supremacy since apparently, the only time the death of a black person is important is if s/he is killed by a white person.

OH. I get it.

come to think of it, the first time I ever heard "black(s)" was in the newspaper or TV.

(disclaimer: my father coming from a much older and rural generation had a few other words (which I didn't understand as I was too young) but my mother shut that down so it didn't happen again. I only remember that because she shut that word down that he said and I'd never heard her talk like that to him before.)

So I was aware of people that were different from "me or us" but didn't understand what or why so much. (I was pretty ignorant for my age about things happening outside my town/school)

Not until the '50's and '60's marches did things become sort of clearer. Later as I grew older and traveled I found I still didn't understand what was the big deal. Humans are humans. Some good, some really really good and some bad and some really really bad. Seemed to be human was the common trait and skin color was like clothes or an accent.

Race is real but what it has been made into is demeaning for everyone on both sides. And that pisses me off. I'd rather not have to think about that stuff.

Cheers!

441 Willowed from the last thread, but I still want to post it.

First off, I really want to apologize to Insomniac because I kind of
went off on him last on the ONT. I was wrong and it was inexcusable. So
Insomniac, I hope you accept my apology. Now for a sliver of good news,
at least for me. The surgeon who is going to do my surgery called today
to say that the tumor in my mouth looks to have not attached itself to
my jaw. I get to keep my jaw. I am going into surgery Monday AM to
remove the tumor on the floor of my mouth, so I may be missing for a
bit. I want to thank all of the Horde for their prayers, and most of all
I want to thank Fenelon. She was a huge comfort when I needed it most.
It's getting dusty here right now, but damn do I love you guys!

445 Oh and just so you know. Gmail will let you set up an email address with a dot between first and last name, and let someone else set up the same two names with no dot. But it does not recognize the dot and someone else can get your mail. They may have fixed this, but it wasn't fun when it happened.

So I guess they have an idea what caused the failure and didn't see a need to stand down.

Posted by: rickl at October 24, 2018 09:27 PM (sdi6R)


rickl, I think the Soyuz booster used to launch unmanned stuff is slightly different than the model used for launching Soyuz spacecraft. But, whatever went wrong on the last launch may be common to all current Soyuz booster models.

NASA seems to be putting its chips on no delay of the launch of the next scheduled crewed Soyuz in December. I hear that's based on launching a Progress cargo craft on a Soyuz booster with any necessary fixes, in November, as a test flight of the fixes.

Cannot tell you how I may or may not know these things.

Let's you give your phone's info to another provider (if they use the same protocol and freq that yours does) and you can get an account with them. but you have to change some settings in your phone for that to work. Setting that are locked in.

Dad used to work for DEC when we lived back east. There was something called DEC Notes that, from what I can tell, was a USENET analogue for VMS. He's probably got file boxes full of printouts from it still in the basement. Whenever we needed a new appliance or something he'd post a question or search for an old thread and there'd be piles of articles about it.

IBM XT
286

486
dell pentium
dell dual core
dell laptop
but the XT died and wouldn't boot

The 286 had a power supply problem and couldn't get to even the bios

So I quit with the collection.
Threw the 386 and the 486 out when they couldn't be upgraded cheaply to handle new software (that was in about 2003)

Got the 2 dells and the laptop in 2005 and just recently finally upgraded to windows 10 with a refurb Dell laptop about 5 years old.

to me that refurb is cutting edge.

608 Pkg shown on Fox just now said "from Debbie Wasserman Schultz." Wut?

Real "suspicious packages" (unlike these obvious False Flags) use a return address familiar to the recipient. So some actual intelligence used on this obvious False Flag Op, tbh (grudgingly).

609 Are Hanoi Jane's fingerprints on it? Or Cynthia McKinney?

610 I have a collection of old computers that would make most of you plotz.

Trying to get it organized enough to actually turn into a big fun thing instead of an unworkable basement full of garbage.

611 I used to know a chick worked for digital in New Hampshire.

She's a bartender now. I think she made it as far as the compaq sale but cashed in. She was a programmer or something.

612 jakee308, here, let me finish that for you:

who's the oldest moron
who's the geezer now
who can smash you in the face
with an old garden plow

the old moron can
yes the old moron can
the old moron can

the old moron buries you deep
way back in the back yard
and folks forget your name...

613 The "bomber" seems to have a sense of humor, if that "from DWS" label was real.

616 I have always intended to load OpenSolaris on to one of them but never got around to it.

623 This is a very well written, and important piece. I seriously would ask you to submit this as an Op Ed to some high quality newspapers, by which I mean the Wall Street Journal. I really can't think of another one.

625 OK I confess, I tan really good and dark.How Dark?Once while riding my horse some ne'er do wells cursed me out and threatened me because they thought I was a Mexican.Once long ago in 29 Palms Latino's would come up and speak to me in Spanish until they found out I wasn't then told me I needed to wear a sign.I have even been patronized by the Ku Klux Klan!
So, In the summer am I guilty of Racial appropriation after tanning?I await breathlessly for the verdict but be advised the sun waits for no one and I am not going to sit in the shade just to make snowflakes, liberals and PITA folks happy.

626 the Eddie Murphy skit is informative. This is what black people imagine life to be for a white person. It's similar to the way a child imagines their parents lives to be. You go to work, where the kid imagines that you play tag all day, and then you pull some money off the money tree and come home. This is meant to be a joke on white people, but it says a hell of a lot more about black people.
