We May Have Finally Turned the Corner on Woke

Even leftists are now admitting that woke = broke.

Jennifer Sey explains how she went from leftist to Trump supporter.

Going into the election, I was scolded by people telling me why what I was prioritizing in my voting choice was wrong. COVID-19 is over. Boys in girls' sports isn't happening. No one is getting censored. You're getting it all wrong. Subtext: You're an idiot influenced by far-right loons, and you're a bigot to the core. What happened to you, Jen?
Here's what happened to me. I get to care about what I want to care about. And for the last 10 years, the far Left has been not only telling us what we need to care about but smearing us and canceling us if we don't agree.
We dissident former lefties have been called racists, misogynists, Nazis, grandma-killers, transphobes, bigots, and fascists and generally cast aside as unworthy of employment or membership in polite society. The election was a big middle finger to all of that.
The Left canceled too many of us. The outcasts spoke up and rejected the crazy on Nov. 5. Sure, we may have chosen our own brand of crazy. But, that brand of crazy knows men and women are different, boys don't belong in girls' sports, inflation is real, free speech is the most fundamental right in a democracy, and Vice President Kamala Harris was installed, not elected, as the Democratic candidate.
No matter how much propaganda Democrats spewed at us about "joy" and Harris being "brat," we saw through it. The Left mobilized all of the legacy media and Hollywood. It had Beyonce, Lady Gaga, Taylor Swift, Bruce Springsteen, Cardi B, Meryl Streep, Oprah, Jennifer Garner, Reese Witherspoon, Julia Roberts, CNN, and the New York Times. And it wasn't enough.
Millions of people who never in a million years thought that they'd cast a vote for President-elect Donald Trump did so as a vote against elitism and smugness and an entire class of overeducated, hysterical coastal elites who think they get to tell us all what to think and how to live -- and punish us with cancellation if we disagree.
Democrats, as you start calling us all irredeemable racists -- a strategy that no longer works to coerce us to do what you want -- look in the mirror. It's you. Not Trump. Not us. Until you realize that, there is going to be a whole lot more losing.
Here's why: Democrats view anyone who disagrees with them as garbage. They feign outrage about jokes and staged campaign events, but we no longer buy their faux outrage. We like jokes, and stunts, and rambling with authenticity (even when it goes on a little too long).
They venerate experts, who are wrong again and again. We want to be left alone by the so-called experts. When it was obvious COVID-19 lockdowns and school closures were terrible policy (led by Democrats' experts), what did they do? They carried on: masking two-year-olds, keeping schools closed for a year and a half, and demonizing anyone who wondered about the lab leak or learning loss. They blacklisted anyone who challenged them and encouraged our neighbors to report on us for "violations."

Read the whole thing.

Justine Bateman proclaims the end of cancel culture.

Justine Bateman is over cancel culture.
The filmmaker and actress, 58, said the quiet part out loud over a Zoom call Tuesday afternoon, about a week after former President Donald Trump won the U.S. presidential election against Vice President Kamala Harris. Pundits upon pundits are offering all kinds of reasons for his political comeback. Bateman, unlike many of her Hollywood peers, agrees with the ones citing Americans' exhaustion over political correctness.
"Trying to shut down everybody, even wanting to discuss things that are going on in our society, has had a bad result," she says. "And we saw in the election results that more people than not are done with it. That's why I say it's over."
Anyone who follows Bateman on social media already knows what she's thinking -- or at least the bite-size version of it.
Bateman wrote a Twitter thread last week following the election that began:
"Decompressing from walking on eggshells for the past four years." She "found the last four years to be an almost intolerable period. A very un-American period in that any questioning, any opinions, any likes or dislikes were held up to a very limited list of 'permitted positions' in order to assess acceptability." Many agreed with her. Replies read: "Same. Feels like a long war just ended and I'm finally home." "It is truly refreshing. I feel freer already, and optimistic about my child's future for the first time." "Your courage and chutzpah is a rare commodity in Hollywood. Bravo."
Now, she says, she feels like we're "going through the doorway into a new era" and she's "100% excited about it."
In her eyes, "everybody has the right to freely live their lives the way they want, so long as they don't infringe upon somebody else's ability to live their life as freely as they want. And if you just hold that, then you've got it." The trouble is that people on both sides of the political aisle hold different definitions of infringement.
Justine Bateman is over cancel culture. Here's why.
Bateman referenced COVID as an era where if you had a "wrong" opinion of some kind, society ostracized you. "All of that was met with an intense amount of hostility, so intense that people were losing their jobs, their friends, their social status, their privacy," she says. "They were being doxxed. And I found that incredibly un-American."
Elon Musk buying Twitter in April 2022 served, in her mind, as a turning point. "The air kind of went out of the Woke Party balloon," she says, "and I was like, 'OK, that's a nice feeling.' And then now with Trump winning, and this particular team that he's got around him right now, I really felt the air go out.
Now, she says, she feels like we're "going through the doorway into a new era" and she's "100% excited about it."
...
She also hopes "that we can all feel like we're Americans and not fans of rival football teams." Some may feel that diminishes their concerns regarding reproductive rights, marriage equality, tariffs, what have you.
But to Bateman, she's just glad the era of "emotional terrorism" has ended.
Time will tell if she's right.

Leftwing hag Maureen Dowd admits woke = broke, after supporting woke cancellations for a decade.

Some Democrats are finally waking up and realizing that woke is broke.
Donald Trump won a majority of white women and remarkable numbers of Black and Latino voters and young men.
Democratic insiders thought people would vote for Kamala Harris, even if they didn't like her, to get rid of Trump. But more people ended up voting for Trump, even though many didn't like him, because they liked the Democratic Party less.
...
Democratic candidates have often been avatars of elitism -- Michael Dukakis, Al Gore, John Kerry, Hillary Clinton and second-term Barack Obama. The party embraced a worldview of hyper-political correctness, condescension and cancellation, and it supported diversity statements for job applicants and faculty lounge terminology like "Latinx" and "BIPOC" (Black, Indigenous, people of color).
This alienated half the country, or more. And the chaos and antisemitism at many college campuses certainly didn't help.

"When the woke police come at you," Rahm Emanuel told me, "you don't even get your Miranda rights read to you."
There were a lot of Democrats "barking," people who "don't represent anybody," he said, and "the leadership of the party was intimidated."
...
Democrats learned the hard way in this election that mothers care both about abortion rights and having their daughters compete fairly and safely on the playing field.

Mark Judge objects to Maureen Dowd pretending that wokeness is what other people do. She supported the woke attacks on Kavanaugh and Judge based on no evidence by a mentally-shaky liar's WITHOUT EVIDENCE claims.

Even nasty leftist Matthew Yglesias says it's time to turn the page from woke:

Is woke really over?

Well, it's not completely over, obviously. Though it might now be on the glidepath to death.

But Batya Ungar-Sargon said on Megyn Kelly that for four weeks after a Democrat election debacle, we're finally allowed to "say The Thing" that everyone knows is true but is forbidden to say due to woke cancel mobs' power.

Then that four weeks of permissible speech ends, the Democrat Party settles on a new orthodoxy, barely indistinguishable from the previous one, and everyone is once again forbidden to say The Thing that everyone knows is true.

The Democrats will make some small tactical shifts. It's not men who are the problem, they'll say. It's just white men. I mean, that was their message before, but now they'll make it more clear that they're not misandrists -- just racists.

And of course they will finally stop saying "Latinx" -- which Democrats have been telling its activists to stop saying since 2021.

And that's it. That will be the end of the period of introspection, and the end of the period of permitted speech.

And we'll all go back to living under a very-slightly modified Woke Tyranny.

Michael Shellenberger says he would like a reconcillation with the woke -- but only after they have confessed their sins and recanted their many lies.

Michael Shellenberger
@shellenberger
Nobody's more eager to move on from the last two decades of progressive witch hunts than me. But there can't be any moving on until there's some society-wide acknowledgment that a group of powerful elites systematically engaged in character assassination against not only their political enemies but dissidents, apostates, and heretics within their ranks.
That witch hunt didn't emerge organically from the public. It was created from on high, starting with CAP and Media Matters, out of the idea that it was necessary to enact a progressive agenda. The news media fully participated. It proceeded to brainwash half the country into believing that their fellow citizens were racist, fascist, and phobic nature haters. The media creating the crudest caricatures of ordinary Americans, and the vast majority of Democrats bought into them.
The psychopathy of social media, and the stupidity of mobs, enabled the witch hunt.
There have been some excellent books published recently on the topic, but a full accounting of the cruelty and madness of the last decade has not yet been written.

"Chuck Todd wrote the most idiotic thing I’ve read today, and it perfectly encapsulates the problem with corporate media. It’s also a confession. He wrote, “These confirmation hearings may just save cable TV for the short term.”

You see, people like Chuck Todd and their corporate benefactors are losing relevance. Americans are sick and tired of their lazy reporting, blatant lies, “both sides” equivocations, and outright cheerleading for fascism. By ignoring the most obvious lessons of history, corporate media rooted for chaos, drama, torment, crime, and hardship, believing idiocracy and fascism would be good for ratings.

Well, here it is, Chuck Todd. And no one cares about you or your network. In fact, we hold you responsible for forcing this circus upon us.

If Senate confirmation hearings take place at all, we, the people, are not watching them on your network, Chuck."

50 The Left got power and immediately used COVID as a pretext to fulfill their most authoritarian desires. Think about it. Home confinement with punishment for offenders. Complete weaponization of every public health entity. Keeping people from seeing their dying loved ones. Limiting free movement. Crackdown on free speech. Firing for non conformity. Coercing people to take medicine they didn’t want. Gratuitous, economic ruination created by massive government spending on every one of their priorities.

I could go on forever, but you get the point. It’s who Democrats are. It’s what their policies dictate. Ergo the only thing they can go back to is obfuscating their desires. It’s not going to happen. People know who they are and what they’ve done. Even worse for them, people know they will lie, cheat, steal, corrupt and kill to get power. They can never be trusted again. It’s over.

When her makeup is done right, she's a discount brunette Anya Taylor-Joy.

I really really wanted to comment on this, it's two funny:

Anya Taylor-Joy looks Nordic white, but she's really Argentinian and speaks fluent Spanish. ( Hope she plays Evita one day.) Zegler does not speak Spanish. Zegler and Anya were seated next to each other at a fashion show, and Anya turns to someone and just goes off into a convo in Spanish. The look on Zegler s face!! It was so sour. Loved it.

" Taylor-Joy was born on 16 April 1996 in Miami, Florida, to Dennis Alan Taylor,[4] a former banker, and Jennifer Marina Joy, a psychologist. Her father is an Argentine of English and Scottish descent, the son of a British father and an Anglo-Argentine mother.[5][6][7] Her mother was born in Zambia to an English diplomat father, David Joy, and a Spanish mother from Barcelona.[8] She has stated that her birth in Miami was a "fluke", since her parents had been vacationing in the city at the time; because of her birthplace, she holds American citizenship due to the country's jus soli nationality law."

105 From Deadline,

There's a great reason Oprah's company got $1 million. Apparently, they were setting things up. Union labour I guess.

"Adrienne Elrod, who served as senior adviser and senior spokesperson for the Harris campaign, told Deadline, “We do not pay. We have never paid any artist and performer. We have never paid a fee to that person.”

What the campaign is required to do is pay “for any ancillary costs for that performance.” That could include everything from travel to paying band members to a backline producer.

“There are laws that have to be followed that we have followed religiously on this campaign,” she said.

In a TMZ video, Winfrey herself denied that she was paid, and she followed up with a response to a comment in The Shade Room, in which she also defended the sum paid for the production.

“Usually I am reluctant to respond to rumors in general, but these days I realize that if you don’t stop a lie, it gets bigger. I was not paid a dime,” Winfrey wrote. “My time and energy was my way of supporting the campaign. For the live streaming event in September, my production company Harpo was asked to bring in set design, lights, cameras, crew, producers and every oth

He apparently doesn't have either, but they can't figure out why he's having all these terrible symptoms.

The press looked at the exit polls and saw that a large percentage of people said they were voting to protect democracy. The press happily assumed these people were supporting the democrat ticket to save 'our democracy'.

It turns out the majority of this group was voting for Trump in order to save true democracy, as they have seen firsthand that the FBI, DOJ, and the courts have been completely politicized and they want it to be reversed. This will give Trump a tailwind as he tries to hack away at the corruption.

154 Yglesias' fourth point is simply that people should stop complaining about racism. Just like Democrats could do better shutting up over concerns about the environment, they'd do better with the coveted working-class vote if they'd just accept that Black people deserve to be pulled, jailed, and shot more often.

Yglesias's fifth point is a doozy. Race is not a thing, and neither are trans people. Because science. If you're reading that as a call to join in with trans hate, you're only partly right. It also underscores the previous point by doubling down on the idea that anyone who is the victim of racism did something to deserve it.

We are in a one sided culture war, and the aggressive Far Right is winning because they are fighting in deadly earnest 24/7 and use rage and fear as motivators.

I want to ask people like Yglesias and Maureen Dowd, if they could go back over the past 80 years and scrub away any wokeness, would they undo Truman’s integrating the armed forces or Johnson’s signing the Voting Rights Act? So much that seems crazy to them will be Conventional Wisdom in 2084. The racist language that confronted Martin Luther King sounds crazy now.

232 Minor point from Kos' rant, where he says:

"Climate change -- and pollution more broadly - is a reality to manage...."

This gargantuan lie is at the heart of the Climate Change propaganda machine.

Carbon Dioxide in the atmosphere (which is what he means by "climate change) is not "pollution," is is the foundational and necessary source of all nutritents in Planet Earth. Even the entry for Carbon Dioxide on the usually corrupted wikipedia concedes, "As the source of carbon in the carbon cycle, atmospheric CO2 is the primary carbon source for life on Earth."

The amountof CO2 in the atmosphere goes significantly up and down on massive time scales -- when it's up, the Earth experiences "global greeing," and life flourishes; when it's down, we get "snowball Earth" period with ice sheets and a huge diminishing of biodiversity. Been this way fr a couple billion years.

More carbon = GOOD.

Right now, we're around average, slowily coming out of a mini Ica Age. To whatever extent mankind's activities have contribute a few percentage points of liberating some more CO2 into the atmosphere (which is even debatable), that's a GOOD THING.

Carbon = global greening.

I said it from day one.

Begged my dad and step-mother to not get it. They got the Moderna vax......dad had an incident where he didn't know where he was one morning shortly after that. They got a booster at some point.

Now my dad is gone and my step-mother has Parkinson's and early onset Alzheimer's. Coincidence? Maybe.........

But my father's death certificate claiming kidney cancer as the cause of death when he'd NEVER been diagnosed with cancer over the past 2 years having multiple hospital visits seems........odd.......

Carbon = global greening.
Posted by: zombie

We're around average for the tiny slice of time that Humans have been around. We're sitting at the minimum for all of measurable or guessable history.

https://is.gd/AM0RKs

CO2 way down at "300-400ppm" is only a few 10s of millions of years in that 550 million year chart. It was 1000-3000 in dinosaur times, and double that in the distant past.

And 4500ppm at the time of the ice age at the end of the Ordovician, so CO2 does not determine the planet's temperature.

I walk around at about 230lbs. Not sure what class that puts me in.

351 I might be a little too emotionally invested on this matter. I was kicked out of a group meeting at my bank for highlighting this issue after someone insisted on everyone introducing themselves using their preferred pronouns. There was a woman who insisted on they/them, and I kept correcting her throughout the evening every time she said "I". I said "we" under my breath each time causing he woman next to me to laugh. I was then asked to leave.

Sounds like you won! Getting out of those sorts of meetings is worth a lot.

But yes I understand having lived in a few blue states for decades. But sometimes you can undermine with snark. My liberal sister once told me she was visiting various SE Asia countries under some Potato collective.. So for years I used to claim she was a tool of Big POTATO.

"Strategery" is a word I use at least weekly the past couple of decades.

353 I'm hoping to get near the 1,000 lb mark. If everything goes to plan, I'll be just over.

360 We have always announced ourselves as a “we”.
So when the bartender asks who “we” just ordered 3 shots for, the response is “me, myself, and I”.
