Madam Kinzinger Calls For People To Tone Down Their Rhetoric... Then Threatens Violence Against a Twitter User Named "Catturd" For Posting a Silly Cartoon He Doesn't Like

Oh, and he also called "Catturd" "evil." But then, the Manlet Brainlet Crybaby Bitch Kinzinger calls everyone on the right that.

David Strom writes:

It is ironic that the communications tool that brought Trump to the masses and enabled his own worst characteristics has done a similar thing for Kinzinger, who is a Twitter incontinent. As with Trump--even more so, actually--he simply cannot regulate his desire to express every passing thought and share it with the world.
Yes, Kinzinger is worse on Twitter than Trump ever was.

Almost all of NeverTrump is. They attack him for their own vices. The thing they despise in themselves, they attack in him.

They sit on Twitter all day "Owning the Cons" in low-brow, thuggish ways and then attack Trump for using Twitter to "own the libs" in a low-brow style. Maybe they tell themselves "This is a parody of Trump and his allies!," but they're still all doing the exact same thing they claim is so degenerate and base.

At some point it stops being irony, and starts just being "I."

[Kinzinger] has revealed himself to be shallow, mean, and of worse character than his nemesis. As far as I know Trump has never threatened anyone on Twitter. Nor, contra Kinzinger, has he actually celebrated violence. I have read Trump's supposedly violence-inspiring Tweets and they are as anodyne as you can find on Twitter. Nothing there. I wrote about this yesterday, in fact.
But Kinzinger? He is actually a very nasty character on Twitter:

You’re like 3’11” and funny memes scare you. I think I’ll be okay. 😂

Check out the link to see Kinzinger, just three hours before this literal, not metaphorical, threat of violence piously scolding people in his typical literal, not metaphorical cocksucker way to tone down their rhetoric and join together in this Season of Thanksgiving.

Three hours. Three.

And also check the link to see him having used the same Tourette's Tic of a malediction -- "You're evil, just evil" -- against Marjorie Taylor Greene on November 18th, just four days ago.

This is NeverTrump all over -- piously calling for everyone to repair our frayed and strained civil discourse, and then attacking people as "evil" and "fascists" and sometimes threatening them.

And look, like I said, my whenever I see Kinzinger's trembling Load-Bearing Lips all I can see and hear is:

186 In NoVa, I hear so many ads on talk radio for small businesses where one of their selling points is that the owner/founder is a veteran. I’m a veteran, too, but for some reason I find it off-putting when veteran status is used for that kind of self promotion.

217 Today, KJP opened her WH Press Briefing with a five-minute statement denouncing anti-LGBT-whatever violence and rhetoric coming from the usual hateful people on the Right. She displayed photos of the five people killed at the night club in Colorado, and read their names along with some heart-wrenching personal details for each. (12 people in Waukesha ask for equal treatment.)

Then she said the following as her "No, I didn't claim that it was an anti-LGBT attack!" card if needed in the future: "While we don't know for certain the motive of this attack, hate has no place in this country and neither do military-style assault rifles."

There's an interesting - though heavy going - book, Thomas Weber's Hitler's First War, where the author dives deeply into the history of the List Regimen, where Schickelgruber served as a Gefreiter, a dispatch runner.

The legend (amplified by Hitler) was that his was an incredibly dangerous position and he deserved the First Class Iron Cross he received. To the contrary, Weber pulls out reams of statistics proving that Hitler was hardly ever near the front lines and that anyone outside the small coterie of dispatch runners considered them 'rear echelon pigs.'

An interesting book, if it's your thing.

When I first got to Tikrit in '03, I had to go to one of the palaces there with my boss to pick up some paperwork from Brigade.
The POGs there were bitching about the A/C going out and it wouldn't get fixed until later in the day. But they got to go swimming in the indoor pool there, so there was that.

We (my company) were living in a large aircraft hanger that miraculously missed being bombed (runway wasn't as lucky), with no running water, no A/C, constant mortar attacks, and having to drive 20 miles over IED-infested roads to pick up food and water.

So yeah, my antipathy towards FOBBITs and wannabes, I come by it naturally.

247 Madam Kinzinger Calls For People To Tone Down Their Rhetoric... Then Threatens Violence Against a Twitter User Named "Catturd" For Posting a Silly Cartoon He Doesn't Like

This brings a couple sayings/phrases to mind:

"A lion does not concern himself about the opinions of the sheep."

"Punching down." -- For someone of higher rank, power, status, and position to engage someone of much lesser and/or inferior rank, status, power, and position in debate and/or argument. Not limited to just status, power, position, and rank but can and often do include intellect, capability, competence, and acumen.

Everyone on the Left considers him/herself of higher status than pretty much anyone on the Right. And yet every one of these fool "lion" Leftists cannot help but "punch down" whenever they read/hear opinions of the Right-wing "sheep".

My takeaway is that any Leftist doing this is not actually a lion punching down, but simply a fool flailing. That said, the actual Leftist lions with actual power who do this (all the leaders of American and world institutions) are dangerous tyrants driving their bootheels into our necks because they can.

There's a similar thing with religious quotes and such on commercial advertising in Clownifornia. If someone in SoCal is pushing the Bible quotes on their financial planning billboard you can be about 95% sure he's a scam artist.

267 > The legend (amplified by Hitler) was that his was an incredibly dangerous position and he deserved the First Class Iron Cross he received. To the contrary, Weber pulls out reams of statistics proving that Hitler was hardly ever near the front lines and that anyone outside the small coterie of dispatch runners considered them 'rear echelon pigs.'

I thought there was a confirmed story where Hitler was in no man's land, injured, and got turned around. He started walking toward an English trench. An Englishman was on the wall, and spotted Hitler. Hitler spotted the guy. The Englishman took pity on the lost, wounded soldier and chose not to fire. Hitler nodded in acknowledgment and thanks and turned around.

All across the south, especially rural, and middle America being overtly, comfortably Christian is the norm.

he used a rifle, (AR) and had a handgun on him. The military guy that tackled him knocked the rifle away (helped by some other guy) ... then took his handgun and started beating him with it.

378 Interesting gub story about Hitler. He did take two Frenchies prisoner, and retrieved a pistol (revolver) from one. When US troops took over his Munich house, they found a Smith and Wesson .22 Ladysmith with a permit issued to Hitler for same. A soldier brought it back, and research showed it was an export gun shipped to Paris, so it's probably the one he captured. A mistress, before Eva, commited suicide in his Munich digs, and that was probably the gun used.

There's a high chance it wasn't even body armor. Often it's a shooter's vest or load bearing equipment, and sometimes a fisherman's vest, with zero ballistic protection. But "body armor" sounds scary, so that's what gets reported.

383 Speaking of the left's insane push, they are full scale blaming the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints for the Colorado shooting.

Why?

Because the perp is technically a member of the Church... but hasn't been to any service since before he was 10 years old.

His mother, who IS an active member of the Church, was almost killed by this guy last year when he tried to blow her up with a bomb and was arrested. The prosecutor dropped the charges though.

Nevertheless, the Church's teaching that homosexual activity is a sin is apparently now directly responsible for mass murder.

I'm sure this is going to happen to all other Christian denominations as well.
