Former Senator Heidi Heitkamp Calls Gina Carano a "Nazi" Who "Stands With White Supremacy"

Gentlemen: Start your lawsuit engines.

La Dolce Gina hints that she might sue, noting that Heitkamp immediately realized she was legally "liable:"

Screenshot (311).png

Ding-ding-ding-ding to Rita Panahi. On both points.

As I mentioned, Mark Waid abandoned his swaggering, defamatory SJW act on Twitter the minute Ya Boi Zach explained to him, via a summons, that just because Jack allows defamation against the right on twitter doesn't mean that juries will.

How did no one notice this, except for YetiCast?

I don't know. It could be, though, that people are tired of HBO and Bill Maher, and that no one's watching this shit any longer.

Content warning -- and content recommendation -- for this impression of Bill Maher enjoying, uh, the company of other men.

Apparently this bitch-ass complained about the impression.

I don't get why other comedians praise this annoying fairy so much.

I've printed the vax card: https://tinyurl.com/nr8r65pf I used 110-lb. card stock, and printed it on both sides (flip on long edge), so the front and back line up. All I have to do is cut the card stock to 4 x 3. As for the fill-in data, I tweaked some of theirs, and ordered some return address labels, .66" x 1.75", and from Amazon a 5-pack of the clear protector/holders.

Once I decide on a date, I can then decide on a second date (28 days later, right?), and Robert will be your mother's brother.

I wonder how much of the Facebook censorship of Trump is in preparation for Trump's launch of his own social media platform (i.e., threatening Facebook users from spreading Trump media on Facebook).

They hate Trump, no doubt, but the near total ban that they appear to be imposing on, say, Trump's actual voice, is beyond anything Big Tech has done before.

49 Lawsuit? Cute.

How about actually responding to her idiotic slanders, directly?

Nuke the racist myth of "white supremacy" - a term rarely heard even 2 years ago, which still has no real-world people, events, or "movement" to which it applies.

Label the cretin Heitkamp what she is - an incredibly stupid racist. Use those words, use worse words. There might be a tiny sliver of the US population that is reachable, that isn't too dumbed down, lazy, ignorant, isolated, or themselves idiotic racists like all the public figures of the "left" and Dems now. They don't care about lawsuits, some might respond to having an actual specific response for once, and can use a direct challenge to this absurd myth of "white supremacy", which their own lives tell them is make-believe.

We can, assuming enough capital to handle the build-out - but it would have to be fully independent. The upside to this is infrastructure control. The downside is that absent peering, nothing on the main internet would be accessible. That's the real problem. You can make your own network, but if you want to access the main internet, too, then you have to peer and use the common domain name system - and that's where the chokepoint is since the other Tier 1 peers will suffocate you out.

He says nothing in response to the absurd delusional slander about Trump policies being inhumane. He apparently can't summon any passion to even point out how inhumane, and insane, and indefensible and unpopular, the Biden policies and results are.

Between using it to describe people one doesn't agree with, to creating never ending fiction about the war with alternate endings and secret survivals and all sort of stuff that didn't happen, those who toss it around casually damage their own brand and tarnish history. Antifa deliberately chose the slur as it was guaranteed to villainize movie characters and make audiences applaud whatever violent deaths were met.

No no no. It's about them *being* seen. You see, people are unaware of trannies or they find them to be distasteful and so refuse to see them. Days of visibility are to remind people to be sure to "see" those people - and by being "seen" they are humanized.

I think.

199 13times, thanks for the heads-up, checked out your comments on book thread.

Maybe I read it too fast, didn't get the impression from Frank that Chiang was a genius of any sort. Got the impression that China was a mess, and that Chiang was one of the most successful at organizing/exploiting parts of that mess, for short periods of time, to oppose the Japanese.

I think the value of the book, for many, will be an appreciation of how central China was as a base cause of the Pacific War. Frank does a decent job of painting the picture of how China, and then Indo-China, along with the amazing dysfunction of Japanese leadership and system, put Japan where it was in 1941. Though to get a fuller appreciation of the internal dysfunction, readers really need to read Eri Hotta's "Japan 1941" as a companion book. An amazing story all in itself, and little known.

Other things I like about Frank's book are his insistence on recording the pattern of Japanese atrocities, his refusal to echo the shallow and incorrect conventional wisdom on Japanese-American internment, and his portrayal of British incompetence in Malaya and even Burma.

204 139 Unintentionally pathetic/funny little story in Epoch Times. Daines, GOP senator from MT, was taunted by cartelistas from across the Rio Grande during a night visit with Border Patrol. It's Daines' response that is sad. He urges Biden to retain some Trump policies - which are already gone. He says nothing in response to the absurd delusional slander about Trump policies being inhumane. He apparently can't summon any passion to even point out how inhumane, and insane, and indefensible and unpopular, the Biden policies and results are.

There is not going to be any fix, or overcoming the results, of this disaster.

It was a make shift area because they are so overwhelmed with the number of people coming on board. They can't handle them all."

Read "War Without Mercy" by John Dower. It is the blueprint for "American warmaking against Imperial Japan was especially awful due to racial hatred." It's an interesting read. He builds his case and it looks sound at first glance because he includes *no* counter-examples of our propaganda treatment of the Germans, nor any general analysis of dehumanization during war, and he utterly ignores - loudly ignores, in fact - the American fondness for the Chinese that bordered (and still does) on a fetish. "Americans were particularly nasty to the Japanese because they hate the yellow man" doesn't square with the extremely powerful China Lobby so he essentially ignores it. At the same time, he ignores geography, construction methods and other factors that made blockade and aerial assault such effective weapons, along with ignoring technological limitations that made precision bombing essentially impossible.

Yet it is the guidebook for "America was awful to Japan because racism" argument.

Essentially, but there is an important distinction in the argument, and they use it to their advantage when blaming racism for the barbarism in the Pacific Theater. Their argument is not that we "went easy on Germany because they're white" but rather that we "went hard on Japan because they're non-white." It is a somewhat important difference, because it says something even worse about American motivations: that we were willing to fight the enemy harder and at greater cost *because* they weren't white.

Power. Money, for the professional class. But for most of them it's the power, or at least the perceived power, for the average Joe Dem.

"White-adjacent" is below "white" but not yet as good as "white" according to the new rules of Critical Theory.

So in a hypothetical war where the main opposing belligerents were Japan and, say, Ethiopia, we would've been harder of Ethiopia because they're lower in the stack than Japan.

This is, of course, insane and the reality would have played out similarly all other things being equal because Ethiopia isn't an unapproachable island chain that is uniquely vulnerable to blockade and they don't build out of wood and paper, making them uniquely vulnerable to firebombing.

But in that counterfactual history, that is how the argument would play out regardless.

349 The interesting thing is the Japanese actually managed to get a slight conditional surrender out of us. That's why the Emperor got to hang around.

Sort of. They did surrender unconditionally, but with the expectation (reasonable, as it turns out) that we would allow them to maintain their imperial state. They accepted the Potsdam Declaration when the Emperor broadcast the statement of surrender.

But had they opened a back channel and demanded it as a condition, we likely would have permitted it. The Japanese are possibly the toughest enemy we have ever fought and the prospect of the costs of invasion through Winter of '45 into the Summer of '46 were borderline unpalatable and the fact that the postwar reality would be a partitioned Japan (the Soviets had landed on Hokkaido just before the surrender) made terms palatable.

Anybody can ask, and private companies will probably be grated the right to ask about your vax status in order for you to gain entry. You don't have to use their services. They may not even need a mandate. When some states stopped with the mask mandate, businesses were allowed to keep demanding it as a condition for entry. I'd love to see it shot down hard. When my former employer demanded the flus shot, some of us consulted an employment attorney about this and were told it was their right as a business to set policy. Unless you had a valid medical reason to not get it, you got the shot or left the job. Some people were fired. None were reinstated.

Essentially, but there is an important distinction in the argument, and they use it to their advantage when blaming racism for the barbarism in the Pacific Theater. Their argument is not that we "went easy on Germany because they're white" but rather that we "went hard on Japan because they're non-white." It is a somewhat important difference, because it says something even worse about American motivations: that we were willing to fight the enemy harder and at greater cost *because* they weren't white.
Posted by: Joe Mannix (Not a cop!)


I prefer the argument that we were hard on Japan because they were the first to attack us, without a declaration of war (as is their tradition, ask the Russians). And more importantly, they slaughtered a hell of a lot more people than the Nazis did, and did so using methods and savagery AS A MATTER OF NATIONAL POLICY that would make an Auschwitz death camp guard puke in disgust.

Two nukes and a slew of firebombed cities, and frankly Imperial Japan got off easy.

Public figures have to show "actual malice," which is difficult, but not impossible, to prove.

In this case, it would be fairly easy since there is zero evidence that Carano has ever expressed any Nazi or "white supremacist" inclinations. Also, Heitkamp laughed after saying it and said she supposed now she'd be sued for defamation, indicating she knew the statements ("She's a Nazi. She hangs out with white supremacists") were false when she said them.

Furthermore, in today's environment, those kinds of racialist slurs are so highly-charged (akin to crimes of moral turpitude) that they are arguably slander per se (and as such, so harmful to the slandered person's reputation that damages need not be proved, they are assumed).

Akchewally Apple Corp had been suing Apple Computer almost nonstop from 1979 to 2007. The first lawsuit was trademark infringement. Apple computer paid out an undisclosed amount of money, and part of this settlement was based on the fact that Apple was a computer company, and would have NOTHING to do with music (and vice versa). Then, Apple included MIDI software (suit), then they added a chime startup sound called "Sosumi" ha ha ha (suit), *then* the iPod/iTunes store thing, which is when Apple Computer started winning (wonder why). I think the latter really was a blatant disregard of the original agreement, but the judge didn't see it that way. For some strange reason.
