David F.X. Army and Richard Y. Rodgers #racist #wingnut

In its September print issue, the Harvard Salient published an article by student David F.X. Army that read “Germany belongs to the Germans, France to the French, Britain to the British, America to the Americans,” echoing the words Hitler used in a January 1939 speech to the Reichstag in which he forecasted that another world war would lead to the annihilation of Jews

America belongs to the Americans, huh? OK, I’m fine with that. Ya know, after all, the United States of America has been called “the great melting pot” and “a nation of immigrants.” (Which was the title of a book written in 1958 by then US Senator John F Kennedy)

The Harvard Salient piece also argued that “Islam et al. has absolutely no place in Western Europe,”

I imagine some Spaniards thought the same thing back about 1500 years ago.

As for the details around what physically happened — including what may have caused the cardiac arrest — Hamlin said it’s “something I want to stay away from.” He did, however, say that he’s “always been a healthy, young, fit, energetic” athlete and that he and his team are “still processing” and “talking to my doctors just to see what everything was.”

Make of that what you will, I guess…

This is why anti-vaxxers piss me off. They take any death and accuse the Vax of killing them. They don't even know or care if the dead person is vaccinated.

They don’t even wait until the person is actually dead sometimes! I remember Damar Hamlin, the NFL player who collapsed and had a cardiac arrest after taking a hard hit in a game back in 2023. I saw at least one quote on here of someone blaming that on vaccines. The one problem with that would be that he fully recovered and returned to playing in the NFL…

Bolsheviks were created and led by anarchist Jews

No, the Bolsheviks were created by the WWF in 1987 when Nikolai Volkoff’s former tag team partner The Iron Sheik was fired and they replaced him with Boris Zhukov. Total downgrade IMO, Volkoff and the Sheik were way more entertaining!

Vox Day and Steve Bannon #wingnut #psycho #conspiracy

Ockham’s Razor suffices to explain why Donald Trump can run for a “third term” as U.S. President in 2028 as well as why the short, fat fake Trump is permitted to continue acting as the president:

OK, admittedly I don’t follow the latest conspiracy theories advanced by Vox Day and his ilk (I value my sanity, such as it is, too much for that!) but that’s a new one to me. The first thing I have to wonder is, what would be the point of such a thing? Why would there be a “fake Trump” acting as President, when the plan is to have the “real Trump” somehow run for a third term? This ain’t a real-life version of the movie “Dave”. In that, the lookalike they got to be a stand-in for the real President got stuck with the job because the real one then suffered a stroke and eventually died. (good movie actually, IMO)

Also, it’s kinda funny he calls the fake Trump “fat”…like the real Trump ain’t already?

They just keep dropping like flies.

Blue Oyster Cult did the song “Don’t Fear The Reaper” with its line about “40,000 men and women everyday” dying back in 1976. I’ve heard (where from, I don’t recall) that was a low estimate at the time, and I don’t know what the number is today. Probably considerably more, but then you have take into consideration that there are literally BILLIONS more people on the planet now then there were almost 50 years ago. That’s a kinda long-winded way to say that I don’t think people are “dropping like flies” any more than they’ve been in the past.

Ivy #fundie

Because we were founded on Christian-Judeo principles.

I always laugh when people say that about the US (I assume we’re talking about the US, at least). I really think that if a lot of modern-day Christians met people who believed the same things as a lot of the “Founding Fathers” did, they’d probably not even consider them “real Christians”. Ya know, like Thomas Jefferson, for example.

Also, is it just me, or is it kinda odd that they said “Christian-Judeo principles”?? That’s said the other way around like…all of the time, or at least as I remember that. To me it’s like if someone said they were going to have a “jelly and peanut butter sandwich.” Doesn’t that just sound utterly wrong? lol

I think the most important job of law enforcement in a rich area is excluding or discouraging the presence of poor, dysfunctional people.

The most important job of law enforcement in a rich area is the same as it is in any other area. This might sound crazy, but stay with me….it’s…enforcing the law! There’s nothing inherently illegal about being “poor and dysfunctional” and being in a rich area.

OMG really??? LOL, what? This person literally doesn’t think transgender people existed before 2010???

I can think of two trans people (who transitioned definitely before 2010) off the top of my head just from my knowledge of musicians…Wendy Carlos, a pioneer of synthesizers, and Dee Palmer, who was a member of Jethro Tull, among a lot of other things.

Also, social media existed before 2010 as well…

Hey, if you wanna talk about men named Carroll, you can’t forget Carroll O’Connor, famous for playing Archie Bunker.

Not to mention, tho, my name, or at least what I go by, is “Chris”…like, yeah, “Christopher” is my birth name, but if you didn’t know my gender and you just saw that someone called me Chris, that could go either way…is it short for Christopher, or short for something like Christina?

Hollywood and Entertainment's War on White Representation: Entertainment is a prime vector for cultural subversion, where whites are systematically underrepresented or caricatured.

Just to offer my own perspective…I don’t know about “Hollywood” really, I don’t keep up on movies. The forms of entertainment I most often watch are YouTube with a little bit of pro wrestling and occasional things from streaming services thrown in there. When I really think about who the people whose channels I watch most often on YouTube are…it’s kinda mainly white guys. (as in Ashens, AVGN, Cathode Ray Dude, LGR, Techmoan, etc) Why is that? Not entirely sure, to be honest, lol. Just saying white people don’t look underrepresented to me, at least on YouTube anyway.

(tho there are some channels that I’ve watched for a long time when the person never revealed their face, so I don’t know what race they are of)

In an evolutionary worldview, how can “rights” exist?

An “evolutionary worldview” isn’t really a thing, per se. Since ya know…there are Christians and members of other theistic religions, as well as atheists and such, who accept that evolution is as much of an obvious fact that almost anything CAN BE in scientific terms.

Taco Bell is Taco Baal

OK, this is one I know without even having to look it up. The “Bell” in Taco Bell comes from the name of the founder of the chain, Glen Bell. (who eventually sold the company to PepsiCo, who later spun off their restaurant interests into a company called “Tricon” which still later changed their name to “Yum Brands”.)

What are “human meat crickets”? Do I even wanna know? Or was there supposed to be a comma in there? Though, OK, I guess the last part is correct enough, they after all, do serve beef, which I imagine cows would consider “abuse” if you could ask them.

I think the whole autism thing was a plan all along. They knew exactly how to create autism

Who are “they” and when was “the autism thing” created, according to this conspiracy theory? I was diagnosed as autistic about 10 years ago, when I had to have a psychiatric evaluation. And I’m 48 years old and I’m pretty damn sure I’ve been that way all my life. Also, my mother and some of our other relatives are totally convinced my grandma, my mom’s mom (who was born sometime in the 1930s I think), was autistic. I guess I’m really just saying, autism has been a thing that has existed for a long time, we just didn’t know what it was until recently.

Is this some new use of the word “pride” I’m not familiar with??? Like, I suppose I could understand if someone considered themselves ugly but had pride in themself for other things, but he called himself not only ugly but worthless as well. If you really think you’re “worthless” then what do you have to be proud of exactly?

DEPORT EVERY PARISHIONER WHO LOOKS HISPANIC OR LIKE A PLASTIC PADDY!!!!!

I had to Google “plastic Paddy” because I’d never heard that one before. Basically it means someone who has Irish ancestry, not actually FROM Ireland but who “places a great importance on Irishness” as Wikipedia puts it.

But anyway, I’m not exactly sure what “looking Hispanic” or “looking like a plastic Paddy” would even mean. “Hispanic” basically just means people with a tie to the culture of Spanish-speaking countries, whether they’re white or black or Latino or whatever. Though, now that I think about it, I suspect he really means “looking Mexican”…

TRUMP:
A Khazarian-Installed
WWE Performance Artist

I don’t know about “Khazarian-Installed” but he is in fact a member of the WWE Hall of Fame. (class of 2013) But that’s the “celebrity wing” where they put in Pete Rose because he had a few memorable run-ins with Kane and I guess they thought “haha, he is banned from the baseball HOF, we’ll put him in ours, that will get some publicity!” Though, of all the celebrity WWE HOF inductions, Trump’s is actually one of the more reasonable ones, since he did host two Wrestlemanias at Trump Plaza in Atlantic City, NJ, and is actually a friend of the McMahons anyway.

(though, I’ll forever think the whole “WWE celebrity wing” of their Hall of Fame is a joke until they put Cyndi Lauper in it.)

Who killed the biggest music artist of all time over 1 comment?

Is he talking about Mark David Chapman murdering John Lennon? That’s the only example I can think of someone who could be considered one of the biggest musical artists being killed over one comment…but wait, if the answer to all these question is supposed to be “the Jews” then that makes no damn sense. Chapman was a Christian who was upset over Lennon’s comment that “the Beatles were bigger than Jesus,” right? That doesn’t seem very Jewish to me, I gotta say.

Well, cmon that’s a little unfair, ain’t it? Ya know, given that the Milky Way galaxy is, to use the most scientific of terminology….freaking huge, and we’re just people on one planet orbiting one star in it. If sentient life exists somewhere else in this vast galaxy, (and personally, I think it’s almost an inevitable thing), how are we to compare anyone on our planet to what might be? How can we say that some entity from a planet light years away from us isn’t the trashiest of trash?

AtheistsAreStupid #fundie #wingnut

Atheism has offered no contribution to humanity

In a weird way, I actually kinda agree with that…because I think it doesn’t make much sense to speak of atheism as if it’s a unified movement with all atheists having the same ideals and values. Atheism isn’t a thing like Christianity where if you’re a Christian you should believe X, Y, and Z. Atheists have contributed some great things to humanity, but that’s not necessarily BECAUSE of them being atheists. One of my favorite musicians of all time is Neil Peart (RIP), the late drummer/lyricist of the band Rush, and while his lyrics often dealt with atheistic or at least secular humanistic themes, he was also one of the best drummers in the history of..well, drummers. I don’t think a thing like that has anything to do with what your faith (or lack of faith) is.

That’s why the postwar West abandoned beauty in favor of irony, worship in favor of mockery, and heroism in favor of cynicism.

I haven’t seen it myself, but just from Googling it, it seems like it got generally favorable reviews and made a quite a decent profit at the box office. I wouldn’t call that a movie that “so many people did not like.” But of course, that’s not what he really means…

I wouldn’t say I’ve felt “terrified” by any of those things. (at least as they relate to myself) Wary of them, sure. Not terrified, because I’ve taken precautions against them. Like I’m pretty sure I had measles and polio vaccines at a young age.
