Wednesday Morning Rant
A story has made the rounds for a few days now about a leftist organization encouraging the Dems to change their public language. Not their beliefs, not their policies, but their language in order to reverse recent declines. The memo is interesting for just how much it says but doesn't mean to. The memo itself is straightforward. Summarized, it's "we're losing and we need to quit alienating people with stupid language." What's more interesting to me, however, is how some of it is framed.
... many Democrats are aware that the words and phrases we use can be profoundly alienating. But they use it because plain, authentic language that voters understand often rebounds badly among many activists and advocacy organizations. These activists and advocates may take on noble causes, but in doing so they often demand compliance with their preferred messages ...That's interesting. That is a tacit - and likely inadvertent - admission that the Party is the plaything of major academic and NGO machinery. This leftist think tank just put paid to the entire notion of "grass roots" left-wing activities. The Party is controlled by and beholden to those interests. In black and white.
Over the years we've conducted, read, and analyzed hours upon hours of focus groups, and we've yet to hear a voter volunteer any of the phrases below except as a form of derision or parody of Democrats.So for years Democrat insiders and machinators have known that nobody likes it and nobody listens except for those inside the power complex, yet only now that they've been smashed in the mouth are they concerned? "Yeah, we've known for years that everyone hates this crap, but we didn't really see any reason we should care about what the rubes think" is probably not what they were hoping to convey to outsiders who might read that memo. The latter part of the memo is structured as a segmented list of words and phrases the think tank compiled that are particularly bad and should be avoided. The headings to introduce each section are much more enlightening that the list itself.
Therapy-Speak
These words say "I'm more empathetic than you, and you are callous to hurting other's feelings."
Seminar Room Language
This language says "I'm smarter and more concerned about important issues than you. Your kitchen table concerns are small."
Organizer Jargon
These words say "we are beholden to groups, not individuals. People have no agency."
Gender/Orientation Correctness
These say "your views on traditional genders and gender roles are at best quaint."
The Shifting Language of Racial Constructs
These words signal that talking about race is even more of a minefield. You will be called out as racist if you do not use the latest and correct terminology.
Explaining Away CrimeAll of these say the same thing: "we are arrogant, unapproachable, holier-than-thou elitists who can no longer communicate with outsiders because of our highly-refined internal language that we use to signal each other while engendering the distrust and contempt of outsiders." True enough. The modern Left uses academic language so skillfully that it has become its own dialect and outsiders neither understand it nor care to. But outsiders can - and do - get the gist of it. That is the problem. Hearing leftist duckspeak tells normals two distinct things. The first is what this memo is all about. People hear this spew and think, "what an asshole." The second thing is very loudly not addressed in this memo. That second thing is, "I get it well enough to know I want nothing to do with it because it sucks and is miserable and dangerous." Yes, the message and the messaging do suck. Tons of people do feel revulsion and contempt when encountering it. Many do feel like a bunch of elitists are talking down to them when they hear it. That is all true. The broader problem, though, is that this is all downstream from the beliefs underpinning it. Calling it by different words doesn't change what it is, and that is the root problem. Improving the messaging will not improve the message. The message is still what it is, and it is abhorrent. Aping rubespeak won't change that other than compounding the problem by accidentally introducing clarity. They don't get it and can't. They're so deep in the machinery that they are actually unable to figure that out. The core problem isn't their elitism or incomprehensible language, the core problem is that they're fully-committed ideological warriors and people are increasingly sick of their ideology. They don't see their ideas as possibly being the root issue.
This says: "The criminal is the victim. The victim is an afterthought."
We will never abandon our values or stop doing things to protect those who need help, encouragement, trust, a second chance, acceptance, a fair shake, and the opportunity to pursue life, liberty and happiness.Yes, they will never abandon their awful values. We all know it. And that - not their messaging - is their real problem.

The agency thing is interesting. It is something I have noticed in a lot of interactions. On a lot of different things. People act like they have no will.
It is very odd- and self serving.

So? If we don't take an active part in destroying the ideology, they'll make a comeback when some Rino puts forth some stupid bill that alienates the ones we just attracted to voting for our interests.
I'd bet, let's say... maybe someone in a state like, I dunno, South Carolina introduces a bill to ban something.

Any first year Communications major will tell you that effective comms are those that takes the audience into account as the defining factor. If the comms aren't approachable by the audience, they'll tune out.
I don't think the Dems get this, if they ever did. Likely just convinced themselves of their own genius and thought everyone else would agree if their comms were lofty enough.

"A story has made the rounds for a few days now about a leftist organization encouraging the Dems to change their public language. Not their beliefs, not their policies, but their language in order to reverse recent declines."
True, but in a real way that's alien to conservatives, the left really believes that language is belief and policy. So while I agree that this rebrand is mostly cosmetic, if indeed the left does stop using words like "microaggression" that might represent a real change on belief and policy.
This is alien to me, but I think it's how leftists really are. The only analogy I can think of is how I think about those revolting perverted homo sex acts that get bandied about from time to time. I literally would never even conceive of something like a "Cleveland Steamer" or "Dirty Gringo," and never would think about them, except when there's an external reference to them. Then I go "oh yea" and have to hold back vomit. Then I mercifully forget again.
It's language triggering thought and belief. I think this is how the left sees the intersection of language and actual thought when it comes to culture and politics.

That's why their "long march through the institutions" was so important. They never intended to convince everyone, they intended to take control of all the levers of power, especially the media and the judiciary, and then use them to enforce a rigid control with harsh punishment for all who disobeyed.
Without the ability to punish the heretics, the system collapses in on itself quite quickly, and I think that's what is happening right now.

Democrats keep trying to understand the appeal of Trump… and they keep failing. They try to act like Trump (Hairgel’s recent tweets is one example) and fail miserably
They will continue to fail because they will never understand that Trump’s appeal is what he does… and it helps that he speaks plainly but much more important is he actually follows through and does what he says. Maybe the only politician in my lifetime to do so consistently

It's always the messaging. Always. They never look deeper, because they believe that words make reality.
Reality is what they say, not what they do. What they do is not important or shouldn't be as important as what they say. They truly believe that we should ignore their actions and trust their words because what they say makes reality for everyone and what they do is just for themselves.
This has always been true of demoncrats.

Orwell covered all this quite well with his discussion of Newspeak. The Left does pervert the language for political purposes.
I envision a network of windowless sub-level conference rooms, where leftists and radicals work tirelessly to create new jargon and buzzwords. Crafting slogans and phrases. Now they are saying, 'we must move away from this'. But these people do not know any other way to communicate. I believe the polemics will continue.

At it's core, its a deep belief in Sympathetic Magic. They believe that if they say a thing, it will become reality. They think that if they change their description of something, then the reality of that thing will change.
It all breaks down when they get to the point that they sincerely believe that electricity will always keep coming from the wall sockets, just because they chant to themselves that it always will.

49 Democrats keep trying to understand the appeal of Trump… and they keep failing. They try to act like Trump (Hairgel’s recent tweets is one example) and fail miserably
They will continue to fail because they will never understand that Trump’s appeal is what he does… and it helps that he speaks plainly but much more important is he actually follows through and does what he says. Maybe the only politician in my lifetime to do so consistently

Trump shows contempt for an established order that has undermined American wellbeing for generations.
His imitators stump for that order while blaming Trump for things caused by that established order.

Now this is CRAZY
American bought 2 packs of cupcakes. One from Sprouts made with real ingredients and one from a regular grocery store. She left them outside. The one from Sprouts is COVERED in ants, the grocery store pack of cupcakes doesn’t have a single ant or bug anywhere near it
We are literally being poisoned. Even the bugs won’t touch it. This is fake food.

Reality is what they say, not what they do. What they do is not important or shouldn't be as important as what they say. They truly believe that we should ignore their actions and trust their words because what they say makes reality for everyone and what they do is just for themselves.

Fantastic analysis, Joe.
I notice that my lefty social media "friend" is sticking to the most simplistic of memes lately. Trump mentioned the word "dictator" for example. Never mind that in the next sentence he said he was not a dictator.

Every church and private religious school needs security teams even in solidly red areas. Most public schools have gradually added security teams over time to the extent that mass murderers are now seeking out places where security is lower or non existent.
This means churches and its ancillary ministry such as schools are the low hanging fruit. Plus you have the whole trans, gay, atheists, and Muzzies aiming at wholesale killing of what the left views as enemies. Churches and church schools are obvious targets.

The DNC is talking about a national convention next year in preparation for the midterms, the same DNC that just did a land acknowledgement at their summit.

"We want to release criminals to kill and rape again and again becuz it's your fault that they're criminals."
"We want our men and women in the military to get killed and slaughtered and maimed so that we will stop picking on those with a different viewpoint. Like blowing up the WTC."
"We can afford to not "punch back" if a US city is nuked. We're bigger than that." (Well, ok Obama said exactly that on a 4th of July."
"If you don't believe exactly the same things I do then you should be punished and put in jail."

Most leftist zealots, like Muzzies, are silent partners in these events--they publicly deplore but inside they celebrate that more of their perceived enemies have died. They feed, house, incite, and supply those with evil intent to do evil deeds on their behalf.
Then you have the ghoulish desires for the media to explain why it is the victims' and/or society's fault, the inevitable shilling for public martyrdom by a parent that excuses the evil doers and their supporters prominently covered, and pundits that explain that root causes plus incitement by the dead children led a leftist/Muzzie to strike out against oppression.
Reminds me of the hideous carnival in Something Wicked This Way Comes.

The Democrat Party is completely captured by magical thinking--the right word, the right phrase, the clever retort, that's all that is needed to win.
Saw that old clip of Obama this morning, the one where he mocks "do they have a magic wand to fix the economy?"
Nothing unintentionally revealed the mindset of the schoolmen, the middle-managers, the do-nothings that control the Democrat Party more than that:
Our words are a magic wand that can change reality; your policies will fall before our words.
Turns out, you don't need a magic wand--you just need a new President.

Hollow people that rely on peer group approval more than any internal sense of morality.
These are the people that in times of old, sacrificed babies to Molech. And as the Romans described the Carthaginians, they would often adopt children so that they would offer these adoptees up as their sacrifice while keeping their own biological children safe. Even their slogans like Hate has No Home here are hollow and opposite the way that they truly feel.
So, nowadays they pay obeisance to Planned Parenthood getting rid of undesirables, celebrate common criminals doing mayhem, and pronounce idiotic land acknowledgements as a ritual.

The EO was essentially, "I'm laying out the current laws on flag burning as a trap to get leftists to burn the American flag in public ways. I'm not changing anything other than the incentive structure for the left to do more stupid shit."

Every time a cabinet secretary announces the ending of grants or the DOJ refuses to defend a grant in court (like Hispanic Serving Institutions, a fund of nearly a billion dollars sent to universities with large Hispanic populations every year), he's cutting away at it.

hey
nova actually had two of these "hoax" calls, but the first one was during the opening-of-school outdoor family Mass - just like the one today in Minnesota.
I do think it's related. maybe the perp for nova didn't show/got stuck somehow. it didn't pan out
the other thing is the organizers there might have not known where Villanova is - the campus is right where Chester and Delaware counties meet, at the intersection of four townships - and the police that area do NOT screw around. maybe they got surprised by the massive, rapid response.
or maybe it was a set up to soften people up for todays ACTUAL attack
either way, this is definitely (in both cases) anti Christian hate crime

I remain exasperated with futile attempts to "ban" DEI on campuses and in corporations.
Cultural marxists themselves are dug in like ticks and can't be expelled from an organization without a curtailment of liberties, that patriots should hate. And those goons will not change their ways in the face of a legislative or shareholder ban.
The better thing is to affirmatively require that ideas contrary to DEI doctrine be published and carved in stone as part of the organization's very identity, motto and mission.
Like:
1. No person can be classified as victim, oppressor, nor any other moral label, simply by virtue of his or her racial category.
2. No person either strengthens or weakens an organization simply by virtue of his or her racial category.
3. No person can be compelled to affirm, praise or ratify behavior that he or she finds morally repugnant.
And so on.
The fight against DEI can't be won with elections. It has to be fought by honest and courageous people in the trenches. All they need is a little air cover.

Entertainment media example:
The new Harry Potter show is filming. I saw an article about Nick Frost filming on the streets of London in costume. I clicked.
The pictures were weird. Frost had the exact same facial expression in every picture except one, and all but that one he had two black holes in his cheeks.
What is this? The article said nothing about it.
And then I steadily figured it out. The one pic of Frost himself, he was much shorter than the others. The other pics were of his body double, nearly twice as tall as him, with a mask on.
No paragraph in the article mentioned it.

In Texas v. Johnson case, Johnson could have been charged with violating a burn ban as well as not having the proper permits for outdoor burning in a non attainment pollution zone. Instead they were charged with desecrating a flag. Part of what is the seamy underside of constitutional law is the repeated use of straw cases in order to provoke favorable rulings. The most infamous example is Griswold v. CT. The guy being charged for buying contraceptives was a Planned Parenthood muckety muck and challenges to that archaic CT law had failed twice before because no government official would charge anyone for violating it. So Planned Parenthood muckety muck collaborated with a local leo to get purposefully arrested so that the law could be challenged.
There are other cases like Pollack, Carter v. Carter Coal, etc. that were essentially collusive lawsuits without standing in order to provoke a favorable Scotus ruling.

There are other cases like Pollack, Carter v. Carter Coal, etc. that were essentially collusive lawsuits without standing in order to provoke a favorable Scotus ruling.

“The DNC acknowledges and honors the Dakota Oyate – the Dakota people – who are the original stewards of the lands and waters of Minneapolis. The Dakota cared for the lands, lakes and the Wakpa Tanka – the ‘Great River,’ the Mississippi River – for thousands of years before colonization. This land was not claimed, or traded – it’s a part of a history of broken treaties and promises. And, in many ways, we still live in a system built to suppress Indigenous peoples’ cultural and spiritual history.”

Under the heading, "The Shifting Language of Racial Constructs," this:
>>As we fight racism and discrimination, we should reflect upon whether the words we are using are part of the reason Democrats are losing support from all non-White voter groups. We must know when to take a step back and listen, instead of peppering our websites, fundraising asks, and newsletters with sociology buzzwords.
They are not worried about gaining support of white voters or of trad cons. No. They are more worried about losing their own crazies.

197 A while back, our DU Liaison reported the glee of their slime mold at the recent spate of major Dems insulting and mocking Trump and Republicans.
Citing, as they often do, to their bible--dedicated to the father of lies, no less--the Rules for Radicals. Particularly, the "ridicule in the most potent weapon" bromide.
Well. It's not.
It's not persuasion--it's coercion.
Coercion is neither lasting nor effective; a temporary sugar high with no long-term results.
But they are junkie addicts who can't kick the habit ....

I'm more educated and articulate than the average bear, but it is not necessary to demonstrate that, other than for yourself, or to impress others, neither of which is necessary. Do this. Don't do that.
The Left is full of preening, educated asshoes trying to impress themselves and their cohort, and fool the rest of us with big words and manipulation of the language.

You are correct.
The ONLY action the President could take is deploying Nat Guard Troops to Federal Properties / Holdings within a State.
Anything beyond that would require a Declaration of a National Emergency that would stand up to a Court Challenge.

They can't just say outright "we hate you, hate your beliefs, hate your culture; and want to take what's yours, either directly or through the system." Instead they couch it in terms of helping the downtrodden, police reform, DEI, etc. They'll blame billionaires but also want to go after you because you're an easier target and simply aren't on their side.
There is no common ground to be had with people who think you should just give burglars what they want, who think criminals shouldn't be put in prison (especially not if they're black!), and who want to dispossess white people of land because "natives", and who want to normalize queerness in schools, and who think there should be no restrictions on abortion up until birth for any reason.

Well, ok.

Margarine is a plant oil and Vaseline is petroleum jelly. You know, oil based.
Unless, the tester was an alchemist.
Posted by: naturalfake
Is margarine almost plastic?
The answer is more than just a yes or a no. Chemically speaking, yes, margarine is almost plastic because it has all of the same molecules as plastic, except for one.
There's more to it, but that's the take away.

216 >>I thought the President couldn't send troops unless the state requested them. D.C. Is a federal holding so it's different there
You are correct.
The ONLY action the President could take is deploying Nat Guard Troops to Federal Properties / Holdings within a State.
Anything beyond that would require a Declaration of a National Emergency that would stand up to a Court Challenge.

Philadelphia: CAIR-Philadelphia is now “partnering” with city schools to promote “inclusive education.”
Among its offerings?
• A 9/11 curriculum that bans teachers from using the words “Islamic terrorists” or “jihadists.”
• A workshop titled “American Jews and Political Power: Myth or Reality,” teaching students about the ADL, AIPAC, and promoting BDS activism.
The workshop is run by Jacob Bender, who described October 7th as merely “the first day of the Gaza war.” He also served on the Philadelphia superintendent’s “anti-racist district culture” team.
So under the guise of “equity,” Philly schools are letting CAIR push propaganda that erases jihad from 9/11 and portrays Jewish political life as suspect.
This is a massive problem.

The fact that they're even trying to lie better is refreshing. I'm used to GOP "victories" resulting in them just being quieter for a few minutes.
It's like hammer drilling through refractory brick until the bit smokes, and then stopping until it cools off a little, and then back on full tilt.
It's weird seeing that bit backed out, even if just a little, for once.

(Wikipedia) The Stand in the Schoolhouse Door
The Stand in the Schoolhouse Door took place at Foster Auditorium at the University of Alabama on June 11, 1963. In a symbolic attempt to keep his inaugural promise of "segregation now, segregation tomorrow, segregation forever" and stop the desegregation of schools, George Wallace, the Democratic Governor of Alabama, stood at the door of the auditorium as if to block the way of the two African American students attempting to enter: Vivian Malone and James Hood.
In response, President John F. Kennedy issued Executive Order 11111, which federalized the Alabama National Guard, and Guard General Henry V. Graham then commanded Wallace to step aside. Wallace spoke further, but eventually moved, and Malone and Hood completed their registration.

Yes he can actually if those places defy federal court orders to the contrary. So far, CJ Roberts and his weak kneed supporters have ignored the NY and CA trampling on Bruen. If Scotus stops, issues an injunction (or has a lower court do it) and the state ignores it, then voila.
President has the constitutional duty to faithfully execute the laws of the United States and that includes enforcing federal law and federal court orders.
For the most part, conservatives have always disliked using government authority to their credit, but that is no substitute for energy in the executive as seen in the Katrina case. GWB refused to shoulder aside corrupt and incompetent Dems in LA and New Orleans because of mewling and optics. This was a clear case where federal intervention was appropriate due to failures of Dem governance.
Because, I don't think that will stand up to the challenge.

Did the police wait until the shooter used up all his ammo on the kids before moving in, so they could go home safe that night?

"Two children are dead and 17 others are injured, according to Minneapolis Police Chief Brian O'Hara.
"During the mass, a gunman approached on the outside, on the side of the building and began firing a rifle through the church windows towards the children sitting in the pews at the mass," the chief said.
The children were ages 8 and 10 years old. Two other children are in critical condition.
O’Hara said that 14 of the injured were children.
The shooter was armed with a shotgun, a rifle, and a pistol, O'Hara said. He described it as an "incomprehensible" act of cowardice."
He aimed for the kids - yeah, Trump could totally go in...

278 >>No invocation of Insurrection Act.
None were tested, though...were they?
I don't recall the States taking it to Court to get a ruling over the authority. Only them acquiescing?
I am completely open to being wrong about that. I just don't ever recall it happening.
Posted by: garrett
--------
Wikipedia is unreliable in Invocations of the Insurrection Act listing about 30 such since 1807. Part of it though is that some people argue that the Insurrection Act was at the basis of the President's actions but it was never invoked.
One of the best primers on how Scotus views presidential power is in Justice Robert Jackson's concurrence in Sawyer v. Youngstown Sheet and Tube. Jackson sets out three examples of how to address presidential power depending on a) whether the constitutional grants that power, b) whether Congress augments that power via statutes, and c) whether Congress demonstrates formal hostility toward a particular exercise of presidential power.
President has core powers beyond what Congress can affect and enforcement of the laws (court orders and statute) is one of those. Aka take care clause.
