The Morning Report - 6/1/21

Good morning kids. Hope you all had a blessed Memorial Day weekend but it's time again to wade into the insanity as June begins. Almost six months in to the illegitimate junta that is only in power because those who could have and should have overturned what was a stolen election committed perhaps the greatest act of treason in our now finished history by abrogating that duty, and what was totally predictable has come to pass. Our economy is on the brink of collapse, our foreign enemies are on the march, our allies are on their own, and the overwhelming majority of the citizenry, essentially a population of internal exiles and dissidents, have been labeled as not only enemies but branded as an evil to be eradicated.

While this was completely predictable in the wake of January 6th through January 20th, it is still striking to see the disastrous consequences. As the saying goes, the definition of insanity is doing the same things over and over again and expecting a different result. Every time a Democrat is in power, America turns to shit, and the harder left they are the shittier it gets. But still they persist. It makes no sense but it is what it is. The giant question mark is what will be our reaction to these depredations and persecutions? With a propaganda machine that censors, distorts and outright lies about what's going on, it's easy to feel alone, isolated and going against an overwhelming tide of opinion in diametric opposition to your own. And that's their mission.

Once upon a time long ago, we agreed there were certain immutable laws of human nature. These laws were based on facts, reality, and data.
In other words, we accepted common sense about the way the world worked according to logical and even "scientific" principles. That assumption defined us as "enlightened" rather than Dark Age reductionists and ideological- or myth-driven zealots.
Not now. "Progressives," especially the media, are most often regressive, anti-Enlightenment, and intolerant people, who start with a deductive premise and then make the evidence conform to it -- or else...
...What can learn from the rise of this new Dark Age mindset?...
Modernism is a poor cloak of age-old ignorance. Living in the 21st century is no guarantee that humans will not act as if they are in the 16th. Our modern-day inquisitors share the same anti-science fury as those who put Galileo under house arrest for the crime of Copernicanism. Claiming that "white supremacists" are responsible for current epidemics of violence against Jews and Asian-Americans -- when most data and evidence point, in the former case, to Hamas supporters, and, in the latter, most frequently to African-American males, is our version of institutionalized geocentrism...
...The enemy of science is always dogma. In the medieval period, dogmas were often ossified Aristotelian concepts that were institutionalized by the Church on the theory they enhanced Christian exegesis and ritual, or, if lost, would eventually lead to an erosion of authority. In our era, the new religion is progressivism that prohibits free discussion of most of the major issues of modern life: When is life established in the womb? What is the degree of man-made climate change versus natural, cyclical climate change? Which groups are most likely to commit hate crimes? Is sex biologically determined or culturally constructed? What is the role of cultural attitudes in crime and social dependency?
It may seem a stretch to suggest that the Left is leading us back to the pre-Enlightenment, given its corporate wealth, academic monopolies, Silicon Valley technological wizardry, and progressive sanctimoniousness. But arrogance, wealth, and received authority are always the super-spreaders and force-multipliers of false knowledge, and none more so than in the present age.

In spite of everything, I do get a sense that the vast majority of us know and understand what the hell is going on and in many ways are already trying to organize and resist. That means, as we see with the continued vaccination crap, the racialist blood-libeling, and all the other garbage hurled at us from every direction, the beatdowns will continue until morale improves.

33 I had posted this the other day, but it bears repeating.

This trip to B'More has involved a rather large number of visits to local businesses stretching from College Park, near D.C. up into Harford County, a mostly conservative county in Maryland.

You would think any legitimate gay and trans outreach for children would be more kid friendly, if the goal were simply to raise children to be adults who don't judge people too harshly for their non traditional sexuality.

None of this is about acceptance. It's simply about destruction. Destroy the dignity of the children. Destroy the dignity of the homosexuals. Destroy the dignity of the transgendered. Destroy Dignity itself.

If Galileo had not been a prick, he wouldn't have been under house arrest. What everyone seems to forget as well is that Copernicanism was, at that time, still a matter of controversy with respect to modified Ptolmaic geocentrism as propounded by Brahe.

I don't see anyone asking the commies to apologize for putting Nikolai Vavilov in the Gulag, where he died, for the crime of questioning the dogma of Lysenkoism.

Truth be told, Baltimore City Public Schools has been turning out graduates with no ability to read, write, nor do basic elementary school math for decades.
While there are many reasons contributing to the crime and violence in the city, the inability of city High School graduates to successfully compete for the few jobs in the area is frustrating as hell.

This is true and is undeniably true. By my reading of history, it has been true for probably fifty years.

Fifty years ago, though, a statement like this would get you locked in an asylum for the insane. Thirty years ago, you'd be branded as a reactionary and ignored. Twenty years ago, some people would listen and the elites would titter about "conspiracy theories" and "wing nuts." Ten years ago, this would be a sizzling "hot take."

Now, though? None of the above. Now it is merely demonstrably true. This isn't a bold claim anymore because it is clearly the reality. Hell, at this point the Left isn't even hiding it. What is "The Great Reset" if not a return to feudalism under a new, high-tech, interconnected technocratic ruling class? They're now talking about their plans and desires in plain language

Living in the barracks on base, it has gotten too expensive for him to eat out on a regular basis.

So he finally broke down and bought an Insta-pot.

We face-timed the entire meal preparation, culminating in him tasting his first meal made in that thing. He loved it.

The kid has been free-lance cooking since he was eight years old, but barracks life makes real meal preparation kinda hard. But he took some of the leftovers to the night shift at the squadron, and they loved it, too.

Maybe, or some other kind of taboo pathology. I have the opposite problem. I don't like mask policy because it's stupid and ineffective and it would be an overreaction and bad policy even if it *were* marginally effective.

That said, the very good reasons I oppose mask policy doesn't explain my overt hostility when I see large numbers of people in masks and have to interact directly with the masked. That is visceral. It makes me angry and hostile, and that isn't rational. I think it's instinctual. I have given it a lot of thought and I think I have an "uncanny valley" problem with the masked masses. I think I see them as imposters, as fake people, as non-humans trying to pass as one of us. It makes me wildly uncomfortable and angry all the time.

Seeing people again (instead of imposters) has really helped my blood pressure when I'm out in the world. I'm not on edge and preparing to fight all the time.

122 "It is time to stop trying to debate our nation back into unity."

From the essay above, "A Memorial Day for the Republic."

Such a sentiment is too radical for any conservative politician to conceive and certainly to utter. So while one side continues the efforts of fanatical dissolution, the other whistles past the graveyard or, rather, continues blathering platitudes about "unity" and "healing" and the importance of civil debate.

A guess? The young are much more into social media, where there is a lot of the indoctrination. The young have been convinced that they must mask up to save grandma and grandpa, that they will kill them if they don't. Their love for family has been weaponized against them.

The older people are choosing to take the risk of not getting sick when they drop the mask. It's a personal health decision for them, instead of concern for others.

149 If Galileo had not been a prick, he wouldn't have been under house arrest. What everyone seems to forget as well is that Copernicanism was, at that time, still a matter of controversy with respect to modified Ptolmaic geocentrism as propounded by Brahe.

This. Pope Urban VIII repeatedly told Galileo he was free to talk about his theories all he wanted, so long as he pointed out that they were just theories. But Galileo insisted he was telling the truth, and needlessly screwed himself.

It was never "big bad stupid church hates SCIENCE!" but "dumbass astronomer doesn't know when to keep his mouth shut."

Posted by: Mary Poppins' Practically Perfect Piercing at June 01, 2021 07:25 AM (2JVJo)

150 Our modern-day inquisitors share the same anti-science fury as those who put Galileo under house arrest for the crime of Copernicanism.

This is wrong. Galileo wasn't punished for Capernicanism (which was well accepted as a theory within the Church), but for straying out of science and into theology. He had been investigated twice before by the Inquisition, and both times they had concluded that he'd done nothing wrong, since he had been discussing matters of science and thus the Church wasn't concerned. In fact, the Church had been Galileo's biggest patron, celebrating his discoveries and promoting his work. The Pope even asked him to write a book on the geocentrism/heliocentrism debate!

The third time was only after he burned every bridge with the scientific and religious communities, insulted the Pope, and had started discussing how the Bible should be interpreted. And ultimately, they put a seventy year old man with rheumatoid arthritis who hated to travel under house arrest in his seaside villa. Hardly a punishment. This after a trial in which he was quartered in papal apartments and given a team of theologians and scholars to assist in his defense.

No, it is not true that everything we have previously learned about the human immune system is no longer operational. At most the "study" shows that antibodies were detectable for several months and that plasma cells were detectable in bone marrow as far out as a year. This is always the case with viral infections. How the f*ck do you get from that to "Chinese COVID-19 Antibodies May Last a Lifetime "???

Posted by: Mary Poppins' Practically Perfect Piercing

The Church was actually more correct on the science, since they held that Galileo didn't have enough evidence to assert that his theories were truth. That was the key thing: the church wasn't saying that Copernicanism was wrong, merely that there wasn't enough proof to conclude that it was correct. They were the ones taking the more skeptical stance.

Have talked to my teen neices and that is what they really fear. They fear for themselves, too, but they really think that they could slip up and murder someone.

Sadly, their [redacted] obese grandma on the other side of the family, who had been on dialysis for 10+ years and survived cancer, got covid but decided to go out with a bang by going ahead with her big Christmas party (and did not tell anyone). Died within a week. This was a few weeks after she had spent Thankgiving with my sister's family and they all tested negative for covid, but there was a brief time there when my neices were thinking they really might have killed grandma.

193 Trump brought a diverse coalition of new voters into the Republican Party. I was speaking with a few of these people over the weekend when the subject of Paul Ryan came up. Their reaction was a collective "who?".

It's about time some people realized that not only are they irrelevant to today's voters, but the policy prescriptions of the past were abject failures whose collapse and reformation into new policies heralded a whole new generation of Republican voters. Nobody is nostalgic for the Republican Party of the past, save the Gingrich era. We've had years of failure, phony principles, outright lies, gratuitous abandonment and watering down of the party into Democrats-Swamp-Lite. No thanks. Never again.

It comes up sometimes. This is one of the many problems with a zero-trust society. It could be true, it could be lies, it could be an overreaction, it could be anything. No one really knows because no one can be trusted.

I will say, though, that my "worry barometer" did start to move on this topic, for one reason. I launched the YouTube app on my smart TV yesterday to watch a video. On the home screen (I don't use YT as a signed-in user, so I get a lot of generic stuff on my home screen below the "based on your view history" section), in the ever-present COVID section, the first three videos were all of good-looking people in lab coats with "MD" and "PhD" in their titles talking about how there is no evidence of any problems with any of the vaccines with regard to reproduction or fertility.

248 Tulsa Race riot breakdown:
- Black man accused of assaulting a young White woman
- he was detained and held (rumored to be lynched which was more common for lynchings to occur for white criminals but that is always left out abs lynchings were common back then)
- Black and White people met at the court house
- fight broke out
- 39 people killed (30% White). Many hundreds on both sides seriously injured. National Guard shut both sides down destroying property of both Whites and Blacks
- death numbers kept getting revised up after 1990. (Shocking).
- Blacks are the only victims (thanks Hollywood and Academia).
- See before pictures of "Black Wall Street"

The "Dark Ages" really didn't exist. It was more about our lack of knowledge about the era than any comment on their state of knowledge. Sure, there were pockets of collapse throughout Western Europe, but they were fairly local and civilization overall continued to advance and grow. Meanwhile the Eastern Empire continued on for almost a thousand years without any dark age to speak of.

I've seen this at stores quite a bit. Parents aren't masked but kids are.

As far as I'm aware, we're still not vaccinating anyone under 16. So perhaps the boy was just following the rules.

Yeah the Greek dark age from the Mycenaean collapse until the city states begin is a better example for a Dark Age.

I'd almost argue we know more since what we really have of Roman Britain is what relates to the greater Roman Empire. Same for most regions I think.

I think that nuclear retaliation against China would be justified. I am not at all certain that it would be fully proper or the best move. Some sort of retribution is absolutely called for - possibly expulsion from all international organizations and a blockade to start - but I think that nuclear retribution, while justified, might be inappropriate. I am not sure. I struggle with the moral question of that.

In WWII, which was a total war in which every facet of every belligerent country was involved in the war effort, there was a very strong argument to be made that while there non-combatants there were actually no civilians. Leveling enemy cities during that war was entirely justified given the nature of the conflict. With a place like China, though, which is a slave state with a massive captive population that is not involved (within a few degrees of separation), I have a harder time. "Is it appropriate to slaughter the slaves to punish the masters" is a question I struggle with.

There may be extradition hearings if Trump fights extradition but at the end of the day, if NY seeks to arrest and indict Trump on some bullshit, there's nothing anyone can do to stop them.

War is just like personal defense. The questions "Do I like this person" or "Does this person deserve to be shot" should have absolutely no place in your reckoning.

The only question is "Do I need to end this threat immediately?"

417 Interesting blurb in the "NY Post" today on the Christian baker, Jack Phillips, being harassed in the Pacific NW-either WAS or OR. I forget which.

Why I didn't 'bake that cake". At First Things, Jack Phillips, the evangelical baker whose refusal to bake a cake for a same sex wedding was vindicated by the Supreme Court in 2018, explains his fateful decision: "My beliefs don't have to be your beliefs. But my beliefs are what what made me who I am. My commitment to God and to the truth of a book which I believe to be his holy Word is the defining premise of my life, the focus of my faith and the guiding directive for my actions. If you ask me to separate all that from my work, from my decisions, from my art....I simply can't do that. Not just won't....can't."

428 Right up there with the dueling Trayvon Martin family t-shirt businesses. As I said above, it's gross, but it's also them aknowledging that the race hustling is big business
___________

I thought it was particularly galling that Trayvon's biological mother is the one who spear-heads that particular grift, considering the fact that she didn't even raise her own kid, and when Trayvon's father's marriage to Trayvon's stepmother Alicia failed, the father asked Trayvon's bio mother to take him in for a while. Bio-Mommy dearest, who loved Trayvon so deeply that you should fill her coffers with your money to ease her pain, could only tolerate the kid for a few months before deciding she didn't want to put up with him, and gave him back to his father to deal with. Trayvon's father then parked the kid with his current GF, who lived in the apartment complex where Trayvon met his fate.

George Zimmerman says that Trayvon's last words, spoken after George shot him were: "Tell Mama 'licia I'm sorry." (Mama 'licia was his step-mother Alicia, the woman who had raised him). Yet that skank no-show bio-mom is the one out hustling for blood money in Trayvon's name.

430 This is repeating myths about Galileo that we now know to be false, based on the writings of people who were actually involved, rather than modern myths from movies.

The Church was not angry about Galileo saying that the earth went around the sun, they were actually leaning his way on that (as shown by the fact that they agreed with it shortly thereafter, as well as their writings at the time), they were angry that Galileo then went on to theological speculation from that, he was horning in on their territory. Also, his theology did not make logical sense, he should have stuck with science.

And the other scientists were mainly angry, not with his science, but his personal insults to them to support his science. Galileo was not a nice guy.

The idea that it was 'science versus the church" is a myth.
