The ambitious things article is interesting, especially if you scroll down to articles / books about why this has changed...I'm sending a copy to SCOTUS as they review the "Chevron Deference".

Went to El Paso in late 1990's and that is just sad.
Demoralization is complete when people stand around while a millions strong Trojan Horse rolls right in.
Tucker must be the real deal and he doesn't need to get wild like Howard Beale.
When you are unpersoned and airbrushed (photochopped) out of all former photos, you are doing it right.
Maybe some of the street people can go take craps of equity on those homes in CPUSA West HQ.

The article "talking with Tucker Carlson" by Naomi Wolf was excellent. Thank you.

#3 Stargazer on 2023-05-05 09:52 (Reply)

Glad you commented. I might not have bothered with it.

So many truths in that article. The hardcore left has never been interested in the truth. Naomi is nostalgic for a time in Washington DC when the left was fully coming to power; the Clinton years. They had just begun on their quest to fully capture every last source of media, so that they could forever control the narrative. The election of George W. Bush sent them into overdrive. And when Hillary didn’t win, it drove them insane.

Whether this nation survives the insanity is very much in doubt. Right now, I would say it is very unlikely. As Naomi points out:

“ And he (Carlson) insists on patriotism, in a time of relentless propaganda and the bribery of elites that urges us all to drop national identities, cultures, borders, and even allegiances.

This last quality especially makes him dangerous, as our nation is led entirely now by elite-captured traitors to our country.”

QUOTE:

The Crime Of 'Talking To Tucker Carlson'

“It’s not how white men fight.” -- Tucker Carlson {contradicted by his own description, and not racist at all}

"This 'shedding' via inhalation is confirmed in the Pfizer documents." -- Naomi Wolf {false}

#3.2 Zachriel on 2023-05-05 11:31 (Reply)

Regarding the "racism" of Tucker explaining how white men fight or don't fight, would it be fair to talk about how black men shoot each other or would that be racist too?

WRT to shedding with the mRNA vaccines:

QUOTE:

“That language probably doesn’t have any relevance to this specific type of vaccine platform,” Brandt said of the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine, which does not contain live virus.

This is a non sequitur (and not surprising). The fact that the Wuhan flu vaccines don't contain any live virus is irreverent. They force the body to produce a part of the live virus which can just as easily be transmitted as though it was a live virus from a vaccine.

mudbug: Regarding the "racism" of Tucker explaining how white men fight or don't fight, would it be fair to talk about how black men shoot each other or would that be racist too?

It's not necessarily racist to talk about violence in the Black community. What would be racist is saying someone is acting Black for shooting someone.

Carlson contradicted his own claim. They were white people ganging up on someone. Ganging up is entrenched in most every culture, with Marquess of Queensberry Rules being the exception, not the rule. Gee whiz. Group bullying is learned at an early age.

mudbug: The fact that the Wuhan flu vaccines don't contain any live virus is irreverent.

The claim is that shedding is confirmed in Pfizer documents. That claim is false, and the underlying claim is just speculation with no evidence to support it.

Blacks, as a culture, are more violent than whites. It is not racist to notice things.

#3.2.2.1.1 Zachriel on 2023-05-06 09:47 (Reply)

Tucker's comment was a generalization.

As in "it's not how white men (in general) fight".
Also as in "black men (in general) are more violent than white men."

It's not racist at all. Just a fact supported by mountains of evidence.

#3.2.2.1.1.1 Guilder on 2023-05-06 13:42 (Reply)

Guilder: It's not racist at all.

Of course it's racist, just like it would be racist saying someone is acting Black for shooting someone.

The vast majority of Blacks don't shoot people. It's a gross overgeneralization to ascribe to the vast majority of Blacks based on the actions of a few. Some whites also gang up on people. They even used to make it into postcards.

#3.2.2.1.1.2 Zachriel on 2023-05-06 14:36 (Reply)

Pretty lame to try to draw an equivalency between a generalization and a specification.

"Some whites also gang up on people."

Uh huh. Some whites also eat jelly donuts.

Ignoring crime statistics doesn't make them go away.
But it does make you sound ignorant.

Guilder: Ignoring crime statistics doesn't make them go away. "

As already granted, discussing the high Black crime rate can be a legitimate topic. However, that's not the statement at issue.

Guilder: Tucker's comment was a generalization.

Exactly. It was a false generalization drawing a distinction between how whites and blacks fight. Tucker provided his own counterexample. We provided another. When violence occurs, it's common for people to gang up, most typically when part of a criminal act, but also when bullying.

"It was a false generalization."

How can it be false when it is based on crime statistics?

The crime rate is not the same as mode of fighting.

Violent crime statistics for multiple attackers by race are readily available.

It should be noted that Buffet owes a decent amount of his fortune to the Kirby vacuum company, whose sales tactics are less-than-admirable, to say the least.

What we are seeing with the attacks on Tucker and Justice Thomas is a massive effort by the left to eliminate any dissidents to a massive left wing coup. Your life and your country as you knew it is over. It;s going to get worse. Far worse than you can imagine.

Thomas was gifted unreported lavish family vacations and private flights, school tuition for his grand-nephew, and hidden payments to his wife. Now, suppose it was a county judge. It's way beyond the appearance of a conflict of interest.

Let's kick everyone out of office and prosecute those who were in office who were "gifted" money. Top of the list is Obama. Probably every congressman and every federal executive position. Let's do it !! Start with the largest dollar amounts, again Obama, then Clintons. Let's lawfare them. I would love to see this. Let's include all politicians who voted for any law that was used to hide payoffs. I'm with you zach. Let's string them up but start with the biggest payoffs. How about those congresspeople who just recently sold off thei bank stock just hours before the banks collapsed? They should go to jail just like Martha Stewart.

Seems like large sums seemed to magically show up for the Biden, Obama, and Clinton families also. Pelosi family was able to act on insider information that would put a peon in jail. If we are going to clean house lets really clean house not sweep the dirt under the rug.

Don: Seems like large sums seemed to magically show up for the Biden, Obama, and Clinton families also.

Not very specific. The top of the list was Obama, so let's start there. Obama was a best-selling author before he became president. Michelle is also a best-selling author. Their joint tax returns from 2000-2015 are publicly available. No magic involved.

#5.1.3.2.1 Zachriel on 2023-05-05 15:24 (Reply)

They were the middle of the list

Don: They were the middle of the list

We were referring to OneGuy's statement, "Top of the list is Obama." In any case, the top of your list is Biden. Biden has provided 25 years of his tax returns. When out of office, Biden made several million dollars giving speeches and selling books. His wealth was legally acquired, he has reported it as legally required, and he has made the information public.

B. Hammer: 18 U.S. Code § 115

While intemperate, the statement wouldn't be in violation of 18 U.S. Code § 115. The context is clearly political with reference to the November election.

Let's review the conversation thus far:

#5.1.3.3.1 Zachriel on 2023-05-05 15:30 (Reply)

There is nothing legitimately wrong that Thomas did. You’re spreading lies misinformation and propaganda. But that’s what leftists do.

I miss read the topic. I thought oneguy brought up politicians that get away with crimes. As it is clear that Schumer, on the steps of the Supreme Court, inciting his fellow leftists to violence against the Supreme Court if they overturn Roe. That you defend him, is no surprise. That you help drag a decent man through the mud for helping out a child, is no surprise. That you get all your talking points form a hit piece organization, full of Marxist leftists on the board of directors, is no surprise. That you try and deflect from that, is no surprise. Propaganda is your art.

#5.1.3.3.1.1 B. Hammer on 2023-05-05 16:09 (Reply)

B. Hammer: There is nothing legitimately wrong that Thomas did.

Accepting expensive gifts from wealthy judicial activists is not acceptable for any judge. Not reporting such gifts as required is also wrong. A judge at any other level of the judiciary would be sanctioned. However, the Supreme Court is iudex in sua causa.

B. Hammer: As it is clear that Schumer, on the steps of the Supreme Court, inciting his fellow leftists to violence against the Supreme Court

Ignoring the point doesn't make it go away. Schumer's speech is referring to electoral payback in the November election.

You claimed that it was a violation of statute, and while the speech was certainly intemperate, it doesn't rise to a criminal offense.

Z: Thomas was gifted unreported lavish family vacations and private flights, school tuition for his grand-nephew, and hidden payments to his wife.

Justice Thomas's friend did not have business before the court so there is that.

#5.1.4 mudbug on 2023-05-05 17:18 (Reply)

And is that different from what happens with justices on the left?

Or how about Justice Sotomayor who took millions of dollars from Penguin Random House and did not recuse herself when that publisher had cases before the court that could have impacted them financially. Would you say that that was way beyond the appearance of a conflict of interest too?

#5.1.4.1 mudbug on 2023-05-05 17:20 (Reply)

mudbug: Justice Thomas's friend did not have business before the court so there is that.

The bosom buddies were judicial activists. Leonard Leo, who funneled money to Thomas's activist wife, has described himself as “a leader of the conservative legal movement." So, yes. They would have a reason to exert influence on the court.

mudbug: Sotomayor

But Sotomayor!

Sotomayor did not receive a gift from her publisher, but earned royalties. Sotomayor also reported the income as required.

Another black hero has died. The man was a career criminal who was attempting more violent crimes when a man choose to stop him. In the process this black hero has died. Personally I would be ashamed if all my heros were career criminal but somehow everyone accepts the fact that black heros are all criminals. I'm looking forward to seeing this latest black hero's statue in some prominent public place. Unless black people wake up to this fraud all their heros will continue to be murders and criminals. Maybe that is their destiny.

So many of today's links bear out the themes of Camp of Saints and Jimmy Carter's contemporaneous "malaise" speech. The West has lost its way, it no longer believes in itself. Time for us to die, I guess.
