God Save Us from #Woke Fake Conservatives
Via @davereaboi's twitter feed. If you're still on twitter and still not following, fix one of those two things.
Either get off twitter or follow reaboi.This is a Twitter Addiction thing. There are losers who have no other social connections except their fake internet palz on Twitter, and so they're never off the fucking thing, and of course this means that they must have opinions on every single "trending" thing on Twitter. And when there's no trending thing on twitter, they make up some childish cutesy-patootsie bullshit to flirt-fight about like whether "[FOOD X] Is the Devil" or "[VILLAIN Y] was the Secret Hero of [MOVIE Z]." It's fucking pathetic. They're so desperate to connect with anyone they will gladly join a lynch mob to scalp-hunt children just so they can feel the warm bustle of a virtual mob at their shoulders. The other day I saw someone write, "Wow, watching football on twitter is really wild!" Saddest thing I'd ever seen. Living Your Best Life, I guess.
(1) At this point, there's nobody on the Right who's the slightest bit surprised a Leftist agitator would create a provocation that would be used to create a slanderously false story against their ideological enemies on purpose. (2) They're not surprised that the media ate it up, ran with it, and created a virtue signaling outrage mob--not like journalists but like press flaks and community organizers. Unsurprising, but we can't hate them anymore than we already do. (3) There's been this social media phenomenon that’s bothered me for a long time: the weird compulsion to tweet your opinion on whatever is being talked about--even if it serves no rhetorical purpose--as if every news story **requires** your drive-by take. (4) This compulsion is especially acute when it comes time for ritual denunciations. It feels like 80% of tweets are people who feel they need to put a marker down as denouncing this or that horrible person. (The apolitical form is "I hate [FOOD]" and then waiting for a debate.)
Yeah, and despite these people's belief that they're all Courageous, they're all pitiful cowards. They think they're courageous because they fight with people they do not know and are not in any peer group with. But the amount of influence someone can exert on you is inversely proportional to their distance from you. In other words, there's not much bravery in telling some rando you never met and who isn't part of your little Twitter Jerk-Off Circle to fuck off, because he's far from you. You don't know him, you'll likely never see him again, and if he does bother you, you can block him. It's the people in your social group that have the most influence over you. And this is where you'd show bravery, if you had any -- by disagreeing with them. But the cucks don't. The cucks daren't. The cucks are like herd-animals gathering in a big circle, all trying to get to the very middle of the bustling crowd where it's the warmest and the safest. They never disagree with each other. Indeed, they agree with each other so quickly on Twitter that one strongly suggests they get on the same page together in JournOList-style private list serves before all rushing out with the Consensus Group Opinion simultaneously. When one cuck domino falls, all the cucks start toppling over in sequence. One of these Soyboy Beta Cucks would have shown actual independence of mind, actual courage, and actual strength of character by disagreeing with the Herd of Independent Minds by simply saying, "this video is chopped up and it comes from a completely anonymous source. Have none of us learned anything the past six years of viral video scalp-hunting? Let's wait for the full video before condemning anyone." But none of them did that. That would have separated them from the herd, and they are sniveling cowards who cannot bear the thought of being outside their pathetic pack for five Twitter Minutes. But they're very much against Tribalism. Just ask them!
(5) Social media is inherently something of an affinity group echo-chamber, so there's a good deal of pressure to have your take marked down to reinforce your place among your peers, colleagues or in-group. Few people want to be ratio'd by their own followers if they dissent.
This can't be repeated enough. Some of us didn't change our beliefs. But some of us sure did reverse ourselves regarding the integrity and credibility of leftwing media outlets. For some, suddenly these were the Bee's Knees. Just before the Special Counsel announced the BuzzFeed story was FakeNews, Seth Mandel had a multi-tweet screed condemning those who didn't accept BuzzFeed as a legitimate, credible news organization. But see, xis principles are eternal and unchanging.
(6) Put another way, this phenomenon can be called Virtue Signaling. The VS doesn’t always have to be a bad take, or an incorrect opinion. Based on the folks I follow in my particular echo chamber, a certain type of moderate conservative seem to be prone to engaging in it. (7) IT COSTS YOU NOTHING TO NOT HAVE A QUICK, KNEE-JERK CONDEMNATION OF EVERYTHING ALLEGED ON SOCIAL MEDIA. Well, some of us know you guys understand that; after all, there’s *plenty* of skepticism to go around when it's a story emerging from the Right. (For 3 years, many have used the excuse of Trump to want to believe anything the media alleges about him or people in his orbit. Suddenly, the media had become trustworthy, at least as it relates to Trumpworld--and everything from BuzzFeed or NYT was treated as on the level. (9) Many of us grew to resent this, not because we were such fans of Trump--what you allege--but because our view of the media and the Left didn't soften.
Correct, and this is similar to my point: The "I didn't know the media and leftist agitators could lie to me" defense was always bullshit and we're not accepting it any longer. If you offer it: You are a fucking liar. Full stop. You know damn well they lie. You just approve of the lies and wish to help spread them.
(10) People are furious that those of you who bought into it and couldn't resist making knee-jerk Virtue Signaling condemnations have not yet learned about the nature of the enemy we're fighting: (11) Activists are trained to set up these scenarios, the media runs with stories that are too good to check because they reinforce their biases. They do this on purpose. You just have to read Lefty activist literature. It's all there, for decades. *Not knowing is your failure.*
Correct. The left looks at every single white conservative kid and thinks, "Most likely a racist rapist." It's increasingly obvious that the swathes of the "Right" which dominate Our Media see white male kids as likely racist rapists, too. Exactly as the left does. In what way is someone who has such vicious bigotries about you and your children an "ally"? Are there any cases in history where people held such viciously bigoted views of people and yet called themselves "political allies"? No, there are not. It makes no sense. These people are now functionally on the left, even though it is not economically prudent for them to admit it yet. Political association is mostly a negative thing. You don't join the party you love; you join the party opposing the party you hate. It is very, very clear that the alleged Conservative Media Class hates and deplores the actual conservative voting base as much as the left does. And it is only a matter of time before they begin admitting that they are more and more enamored of progressive policy prescriptions. We saw this with Jen Rubin and Bret Stephens and Rick Wilson and Bill Kristol. Do you think those are isolated cases? No, because political affiliation is about the gut and the heart more than it is about the head. People who grow up in liberal areas don't adopt liberal positions because they've been intellectually convinced of them. They adopt liberal positions because the people they know and like seem to believe in liberal ideas, and they like those people and want to get along, so they naturally adopt those beliefs as well. We are now in Year Three of the Conservative Donor/Media Class' increasingly vicious, personal war on the actual conservative voting base. Does anyone really think that after years of complete emotional alienation from actual conservatives these Paycheck Conservatives are still going to be pushing the second amendment and the pro-life cause? No. They will slowly but inexorably take the same path that Rubin, Stephens, Kristol, and Wilson took -- they will begin realigning their political/intellectual selves to comport with the dominant mode of thinking of their actual kinship Tribe. They're already doing that, of course. Suspecting that any white conservative boy is probably a Secret Racist is just one part of adopting the entire Progressive Ideology.
(12) Considering that it costs nothing to wait for more facts, many of us have noticed that your biases against a large chunk of the Right are pretty similar to the Left's. You seem to agree with the Left that the conservative base is a bunch of racists.
13) Rather than thinking the totally reasonable thing--"hey, that looks bad, but this is my tribe, so at least they get the benefit of a few hours where the full story will emerge"--there wasn't a moment's hesitation about thinking the worst of these conservative kids.Yup. Because, like the progressives they are/are becoming, they fundamentally despise conservatives and want to hurt them.
"Actually his style is quite imitable." -- Jonah Goldberg, progressive, plagiarist
(14) So there's a choice: either (a) you acted foolishly in believing the media and the activist Left, AGAIN; or (b) the Right is really not your tribe after all. There may be more options, but for the people who are raking NRO over the coals today, that's what they see. (15) I just read @AceofSpadesHQ, who put this same choice in his inimitable style http://acecomments.mu.nu/?post=379322
(16) One more thing: The moment I saw an old Native American man show up at a Pro-Life protest beating a native drum, it was reasonably clear that the guy was, at the very least, an experienced political actor. That alone should've given pause to the narrative!Fucking racist Deplorable.

If I like a writer or director, I could just say 'good job' directly. If I liked an author or editor, I could say so without having to go to WorldCon or World Fantasy.
That was nice. So was finding fellow authors and supporting their work and commenting on stuff. The short character count worked against any real communication, though.
Twitter works best for comedy, boobs and rage.
Sadly rage seems to have won.
I left the platform when the hate was starting to overflow, maybe around GamerGate, or at least just before the Sad Puppies business exposed just how bad the SciFi/Fantasy world was.
I don't miss it, much.
I still check out Razorfist's twitter or AtC or KBdaBear. But that's it.
I've even stopped checking in with Jim/Metokur.

Attention gives you a Serotonin hit. It literally gives you pleasure, whether its Real Life Attention, OR Internet attention.
This is what drives Facebook, Twitter, and other social Media.
One way to get said attention, is to show your outrage for something that happened, even though it had nothing to do with you PERSONALLY. Thus, Outrage by Proxy.
So, they get their Serotonin hit for being Outraged on someone else's behalf.
This affects both the Left, AND the Right.

I don't mind people doing this in theory. Classic liberals are being redpilled and realizing, to their horror, that they are moving to the right. Dave Rubin, Jordan Peterson, Sargon, Tim Pool, all are slowly realizing that their party has left them.
The thing is they are honest abut their transformation. They admit it, even if they find it embarrassing or weird, like putting on new skin.
The problem with the GOPe is they are not brave enough to admit it. They are Woke, the left's form of redpilling, but still refuse to let go of the Elephant skin and embrace the full power of the Donkey suit.
They do not realize that while they dither, their Ass is showing.

Second, to make amends he will have to write positively or at least really objectively about Trump, his voters and any MAGA hat wearers.
Third, he cannot go back to his bad old practices of writing negatively about those he claims are on his side. This will take some time, especially the part of not sneering at conservatives. He will need to have a proven track record before being fully forgiven.
How's that, Mr Catholic or even Mr Christian?

When NRO ran off John Derbyshire and Mark Steyn, I knew then that it was a false front operation.
John Derbyshire was a racist. Sure he was. His wife is Chinese, and his sons are of mixed race (of course).
QED. A racist, because he talked about the actual experience of being around a collection of African American adolescents, and the trouble that might ensue.

17. One one more thing: even after the truth has been shown, these pathetic VS'ers will not change their mind. The truth of what happened (and let's be perfectly clear about this: There is only one version of that.) means absolutely nothing to them. No. Thing. That's why they didn't wait to pounce of a bunch of innocent kids waiting for a bus.
Shitting Bull was not confronted by the kids: he confronted them. Those kids weren't taunting anyone: some gang of black racists were hurling invectives at them in a clear attempt to provoke a confrontation.
This was an MFM/Alinsky setup, plain and simple, but it failed. Did anyone notice the guy with the video camera walking next to Shitting Bull?

I say this all the time: what are your credentials and how have you established them? Not formally, but even argumentatively. Could you carry on an actual factual argument or discussion for five minutes more than superficially? The answer from about 95% of the social media crowd and the general media themselves is- no.
It used to be that a good journalist would immerse themselves in a particular subject to root out the truth. They largely don't do that anymore because the verifiable truth uncomfortably destroys the preconceived notions their herd TOLD them were true. Heck, they continue to strike them and tell them it's alright even when the truth is self evident and destroys their fantasies.
It's really ultimately a sickness.
Posted by: Marcus T at January 22, 2019 05:19 PM (IBzqd)
C'mon, Ace. You are smarter than this. What "conservatives" push is not a political issue. It is their books. They don't want the Constitution to govern the nation: they will be obsolete very quickly if they actually bring that closer. Jordan Peterson didn't want Kavanaugh to stay on the Supreme Court: he made a very stupid attempt to sway the base, and forever branded himself Controlled Opposition in America. So did Ben Shapiro. They'll even smear the March for Life as a bunch of deplorables: not because they for a second believed those kids were bad, but because they hate traditional Christianity.
Donald Trump is advancing nationalist conservatism. It's great for the people, not so much for multinationals, and it terrifies them.

August 16, 2017: "This morning, BuzzFeed News announced a partnership with Decision Desk HQ to provide live coverage of elections across America through 2018. The six-figure deal, which also provides BuzzFeed News with access to election data, will see Decision Desk HQ and BuzzFeed News team up for special elections, gubernatorial races and every House and Senate race, Finnigan said."

There are so many dimensions and rooms and chambers and fields where this story takes us. I've been thinking about the school and diocese that rushed that condemnation onto the school website (which is still down as of now).
Here's the message, kids: The "leaders" had no faith in you. They saw a two-minute video that was snipped out of a day-long event and decided that video defined you. They didn't ask what came before, after, or on either side; they made an IMMEDIATE JUDGMENT based on those 120 seconds.
They have no faith in you.
You know who has more faith in its members? MS-13. The Bloods. The Crips. If someone went after their homeys the way the MSM went after you, that someone would be made to answer.
The leaders who were supposed to guide you and give you the protection of a group threw you to the wolves. You need have no faith in them.

They're absolutely certain that this kind of thing is going on and if the just dig deep enough, they'll find it.
That's why the NRO crowd jumped on this. They absolutely believe that any Catholic who wears a MAGA hat would taunt an old American Indian Vietnam veteran.
Think for a moment about what miserable creatures these NRO types are. They spend their careers writing for an audience they utterly despise but have to pretend to like.

He's right to be angry. We should all be angry. I should note that Ace's anger has become legendary on social media. I've seen two references to AoS in the last few days on Twitter, one from Schlichter and another from someone whom I can't recall right now. Both were references to Ace's anger, somehow distinct from the man, as if Ace himself is just a vessel for this communal rage.
Everyone likes & relates to Ace's anger. They'd invite over for parties, if they could.

They also had kidnapped a Native American tribal elder who was a retired five-star general who had planned and commanded the 'left hook' by the coalition armies in the first Iraq War. My hippocampus retains a strong memory that when one of boys littered a beer can on the ground a single tear fell down his cheek.
The event left me with severe MAGA hat-related PTSD and my husband has asked our member of congress if xe would introduce legislation making the wearing of such hats a federal hate crime.
The only way my trauma could in any way be relieved would be if Ace of Spades, Dave Reaboi and the other mean, hateful fascist czarist nazi Putinbots would stop criticizing Jen Rubin, Bret Stephens, Rick Wilson, Bill Kristol and the other thought-leader conservatives.

B) Constantly say that James O'Keefe and Project Veritas "Deceptively Edited those Videos"
Second: "Reichstag Fire" comes to mind. Someone started shit, another person created propaganda (the video) to cast the blame on [group], and then you have the jackboots and brownshits going around, threatening violence in retaliation. If it weren't for the fact that we had more propaganda (everyone else's camera phones) and the tech to put it out in a day, said brownshits might have actually gone and lynched the kids and anyone else that happened to look like them. There's still a risk some might.

For any of the grifter, silver spoon conservative media to look down on anyone for low character? Let alone this President? That is enraging. What they mean, honestly, is that the President is culturally plebian. Working class. And he makes it look effortless.
They'll never forgive him for that. He's literally the anti-FDR in that respect.

Again. The Teachable Moment. The moment where the victim and the criminal are set on the same moral plane and the victim is enjoined to examine his conscience, see the world through his oppressor's eyes, and go forth in a more forgiving, open-minded, and less offensive way.
Would Alyssa Milano tell an abuse victim to "meet with" her rapist so we can all come together to understand each other's perspectives and work to forgive and see things through the other person's eyes?
I couldn't get to my keyboard on one of the threads below where the NRO hides behind the passive voice, admits to "piling on," thus absolving themselves of individual responsibility and simply being part of an exuberant mosh pit, and then "moving on" in a philosophical way, lamenting the human folly that we all share. But it's popped up again, no surprise, thanks to Nathan Phillips's "offer" to let the Covington kids discover how offensive and blameworthy they truly are.

Ruth wasn't unanimous mostly because the first ballot had an ungodly amount of names on it, by virtue of being the first ever HoF ballot.
Aaron and Mays weren't unanimous because dumb people left them off because Ruth wasn't unanimous. (Some people blame racism - I think that's a red herring. Mike Schmidt and Johnny Bench and Yogi Berra and Tom Seaver weren't unanimous either)

--I agree.
Ruth wasn't unanimous mostly because the first ballot had an ungodly amount of names on it, by virtue of being the first ever HoF ballot.
Who are the original 5 HOF players? Ruth, Cobb, Matthewson, Wagner, and . . . Cy Young? (not up to bing-ing it)
Still seems insane to have any of them not unanimous.

He was getting all the attention and he was pro-Trump.
It was a professional hit designed to move a competitor, nothing more.
Remember, the Sacred Text of National Review is how they crushed the Birchers 50 years ago. They see that as the ultimate path to success.
If you wipe out all other rightish publications and sites, you get all the money for yourself.
So yes, there's some psychological stuff going on, but Milo got the shiv 'cause he was moving in on their turf.

On Mark Levin's Fox show the other day, he was talking to Curt Schilling.
Schilling said that one douchebag reporter told Nolan Ryan he didn't vote for him in the HOF ballot, because he thought no one deserved to get in unanimously. Then the douchebag wrote a column about it.
Bottom line, the people who vote for the HOF are not anything special, and often have personal agendas that color their vote.

Edgar Martinez in his prime, was the best pure hitter I ever saw live. Ken Griffey Jr was also amazing, but Edgar had an eye and a bat with amazing control. Pitchers hated to face Edgar.
The DH is named for him. Yes, NL fans, I understand you don't care, that's ok. It takes nothing away from his awesomeness.
The only reason Edgar isn't already there, was because the Mariners kept a good 3rd baseman in front of him, Jim Presley, even though Edgar's bat was ready. Cost him 2 to 3 years of statistics. This is the only reason we are still talking about Edgar not being in the HOF, where he belongs.

Veritas are quite professional at this point; this was an amateur act.
This is because left-wing provocateurs don't need any better, because they get this much cover from the mainstream media. Their act doesn't need to be even remotely plausible; after this much preparation, their public will swallow anything.
But they'll be back with more sophisticated productions. The money and fame are quite good, probably.

Vietnam War Veteran.

Posted by: Marcus T at January 22, 2019 05:54 PM (IBzqd
=====
Here's the sauce on the sundae: Phillips actually never claimed he served in Nam. He said something like "I served in the Vietnam times," or something, and the MSM hoisted him onto their shoulders (remember, I called it a mosh pit upthread) and proclaimed him a veteran and thanked him for his service.

In case Ace's arguments about the ass-hattery of these asshats, let it sink in a moment that these same asshats don't lift a finger "in the spur of the moment" or days or weeks afterward, when real out-n-out violence is committed by the Progressives.

Following closely are those who encourage those targeted unfairly and onlookers to cuck so as to avoid the unpleasantries. Basically, it is victim blaming. Think Baseball Crank.
Next in the hierarchy of awfulness come those who issue faux apologies. Examples would be Hugh Hewitt, Rich Lowry and S.E. Cupp.
Perhaps the least offensive are the uber cucks like Space Boy Tom Nichols, who can't even pretend to have changed his mind despite whatever the evidence shows to him.
Just shun and cast off these disgusting bastards and never look back.

You do? Good. Now remember when you saw the mug shots of the G-thugs, as they stared down their noses defiantly at the police photographer?
You do? Good. Now remember how much you hated those thugs and their defiant stares, and wanted to punch them?
You do? Good. Well that is the same level of hatred that far too many white Americans feel when they see a smiling, uncowed, clean-cut white male smiling.
The difference is, your hatred for violent thugs is justified by their dangerous criminal behavior, while the elites' hatred for innocent whites is not. That elite/mainstream hatred of whites was implanted by commie schoolteachers and newsmedia incitement.

These people are following the path most people do when they have cognitive dissonance in the actions they want to take. They have built their entire lives and livelihood around the fact that they are Conservative Thought Leaders. When what they are doing to maintain their social status and livelihood is no longer really conservative- then it is obvious that the principles have changed and they are leading it to a more perfect form of Conservatism.
Mutable conscience and the shifting stands of morals are nothing new- and neither are these guys. It is hard to take a stand and say this is where I am burning my ships.

I was a mother of a young man determined to join the Marines instead of attending college. I was terrified, because we were so heavily involved in Iraq and A-stan, and he was our only child.
I found this place, and Tami's and grammie winger's kids were about to leave Shitcanistan.
This place kept me sane. My husband and I didn't know another parent who had a kid in the military. Not one.

Unfortunately, we see it the same way.
And I'm half German heritage. It's in my genes."
The root form is in everyone's genes, it's a piece of the dark side of humanity. "Otherizing" those seen as competing groups was a survival strategy when men lived in small tribes and clans; it was a way to enforce group loyalty in a competitive and harsh world. Later on, as societies developed, ruthless leaders found it to be a very useful tool to use in order to control and direct their followers. (and so far as the Jews were concerned, it was a great way for those leaders to grab their gold) Once we got to the point where this power could be abused by nation-states, then the consequences became truly horrific.

NRO is worthless. And this Salem Witch Trial that happens EVERY FREAKING WEEK is growing very old.
My gut reaction now is every story is bs. Just wait. And gosh darn it, I'm right every time.

Now, I have new reasons never again to listen to the Editors' podcast, and my thriftiness is way down on the list of why I'll never give money to NRO. For an organization that does what it did this weekend? Not. One. Dime.

Year Three? Oh no, Ace, it's been going on way longer than that. At least since 2009, when they didn't say a thing about all the racist slurs thrown at the Tea Party. A dozen Senate candidates, who could have won. Roy Moore is just the latest example; there was MS 2014, and many others.

I really really really miss the podcast. They had some of that free wheeling humor this blog had in spades back in the day.
