Shelter Dogs Killed Due To White Supremacy?

 

Do you know why some dogs in shelters end up perishing? Simple neglect? The sad status of being unwanted? Global warming?

Nope. According to Katja Guenther, a professor of gender and sexuality studies at the University of California-Riverside, these canine deaths are due to “capitalism, anthroparchy, white supremacy and patriarchy.” Of course.

Guenther says, for example, that people of color who abandon their dogs are likely victims “ensnared in the legal system,” forced to leave their animals behind “under the duress of sudden eviction or deportation or arrest.” She even claims that such people believe what they are doing is for the best, because of “the constraints of their knowledge and resources, both of which are limited by the nexus of their class, status as immigrants, and ethnicity.”

Incredibly, Guenther avers that if, say, a Latino man on a bicycle happens to drop a dog “while escaping from mall security officers … after stealing a pair of Wrangler jeans,” it is simply the result of his “status as marginalized.” Moreover, should a woman leave her dog to die at the pound after she has finished breeding her and selling her puppies to buy drugs, it is probably the fault of her “status as a poorly educated queer woman of color.” Wow.

Yet, in her book, “The Lives and Deaths of Shelter Animals,” Guenther avers that allowing your dog to sleep inside your house is actually a manifestation of white privilege. She wants Fido to be locked outside when it’s twenty-below-zero or during violent storms? Doesn’t sound very tolerant and inclusive.

She says statutes which forbid the chaining or leaving of dogs outside are “intended to oppress people of color by imposing middle-class norms of animal keeping in which companion animals are considered family and treated accordingly.” Bringing your dog inside oppresses people of color?

Yes. You see, Guenther explains, people of color “are themselves trapped in poverty” and “may have few options for legitimate income generation and possibly rely on their dogs for … status.” I have no idea what the hell that’s supposed to mean. And, in saying that, Katja just treated people of color like she apparently thinks they treat their dogs.

Katja wasn’t done dogging white people, however. She also accused Caucasians who volunteer in dog shelters of working to “reinscribe hierarchies of power and status within the shelter” to the detriment of non-white workers, thus maintaining “existing social inequalities between humans even as they seek to help animals.” Reinscribe hierarchies of power and status within a dog shelter? Moreover, she disapproved of a rescuer lamenting the condition of a dog “with sagging belly skin, elongated nipples, and enlarged genitalia” due to its former owners having confined the dog solely to the outdoors, calling the reaction typical of “white rescuers.” This begs the age-old question: “WTH?” Is Katja perhaps projecting, as leftists are wont to do, when she talks about “sagging belly skin, elongated nipples, and enlarged genitalia?” I, for one, don’t want to know.

At least Guenther admits “It is not possible for me to be impartial,” even while noting, “I was trained in sociology, a discipline that emphasizes impartiality and the need to systematize observations and analysis in ways that distance the researcher from the researched.” She added, “I deliberately turn away from these tendencies and instead embrace the messy possibilities of being a researcher with complex ties to the social setting I am analyzing.” Quite.

According to her website, Guenther-- who holds a PhD in sociology-- works “within interdisciplinary feminist and critical frameworks.” She notes that her book is “a feminist analysis of how rescuers of companion and free-roaming (aka ‘wild’ animals) represent and negotiate their relationships and relations of care with disabled animals.” (Insert foghorn blasts here.)

According to The College Fix, Guenther has been published in the journals Ethnic & Racial Studies, Gender & Society, Politics & Gender and Social Problems. (If you subscribe to Ethnic & Racial Studies and Gender & Society, you can get subscriptions to Politics & Gender and Social Problems absolutely free! Don’t miss this fabulous BOGO! Call before midnight tonight! Operators are standing by!)

“The Lives and Deaths of Shelter Animals” has received praise from such luminaries as Carol Adams, author of “The Sexual Politics of Meat,” a book which she wrote to argue that society’s fondness for eating meat is a reflection of its misogyny. (Insert your own joke here.)

What books are forthcoming from radical feminist/leftist nut-bags? “The Sexual Politics of Navel Lint?” “Astronomy: The Misogynistic Science?” “The White Privilege of Flush Toilets?”

 

If caring for my dog is a form of white privilege, I don’t want to be woke. And, if eating meat is a nod of approval towards masculinity, I’m down with that.

 

Crazed leftists believe that literally everything is proof of white privilege, misogyny, homophobia, transphobia, and global warming. But they are just baying at the moon, unwilling to look inside themselves to find the seeds of their rage and despair, in a society gone to the dogs.

 

Personally, I’d share my home with a dog…and keep the rabid leftists chained up outside.

 

 

 

 

Grandma Charged With "Parading" Told To Denounce Whiteness

 

A 49-year-old grandmother named Anna Morgan-Lloyd was directed by her attorney to denounce her whiteness prior to appearing before a federal judge to account for her crime of January 6^th, 2021, in which she stands accused of “parading”—yes, parading-- through an open Capitol door. She’s lucky she didn’t get the death penalty, considering the vicious clowns in charge of Washington, D.C.—and therefore the rest of the formerly United States—today.

Uncle Sam, who has looked the other way for 13 months as Antifa, BLM and assorted anarchists and lowlife thugs engaged in violent riots, burning, looting, and laying waste to America’s big cities is now throwing his full weight behind prosecuting the 500 or so unarmed people who strolled through open Capitol doors on that fateful day. The vast majority of the aforementioned 500 did nothing wrong during their short stint inside The Capitol, however authorities and the media are bending over backwards to disparage them, sap their finances-- and ruin their lives.

Not only was Morgan-Lloyd charged with trespassing, as the others have been or will be, she was ordered by her court-appointed public defender to denounce her “white privilege.” The defense attorney also gave her a reading list to help her reprogram her political views in exchange for potentially avoiding prison time for her heinous acts. With public defenders like that, who needs prosecutors?

Grandma Morgan-Lloyd is the first of the trespassers to be sentenced. We can only guess what will befall the others. Will they be forced to read The Communist Manifesto? After all, the chairman of the U.S. Joint Chiefs of Staff bragged about doing so. Or perhaps they’ll have to watch 10 consecutive episodes of The View and write “Don Lemon is the best” 1,000 times in a spiral notebook?

Threats from the government to the American people are getting out of hand. President Biden recently noted, while mocking the Second Amendment, that “if you wanted, or if you think you need to have weapons to take on the government, you need F-15s and maybe some nuclear weapons.” Yet, as brilliantly parodied by the Babylon Bee, the same government claims the 500 completely unarmed citizens  who “paraded” through The Capitol constituted an “insurrection” that nearly toppled the government.

As someone once said, there can be only two types of societies: ones in which the people are afraid of the government (Soviet Union, China, North Korea, etc.) and ones in which the government is afraid of the people. Sadly, as I wrote in a previous American Thinker post, “the biggest and most existential threat to our way of life emanates from our own government — our supposedly duly elected leaders,” who are willing to release convicted terrorists while simultaneously branding patriotic citizens as the biggest threat to the republic.

We cannot logically denounce what we have no control over. If we must denounce our skin color, should we also denounce our sex, our species, our physiology? That is the opposite of science…not to mention reason and morality.

There is an insurrection occurring. Democrats and their elite leftist enablers have essentially overthrown the Constitution, the Bill of Rights, the rule of law, and the concept of representative republican government. They would dispense with or repeal Natural Law, too, if they could. But they can’t, as it is granted each of us by our Creator. Which is why they disdain the concept of a higher power.

Before you and I get charged with “parading” and sentenced to prison, or worse, we need to help re-establish a government of, by and for the people. The only way to do this is to never back down, never stay silent out of fear, never cower…never surrender.

We used to have the confidence of learned adults. The Founders didn’t care what those who would abuse them thought. They would not have denounced themselves no matter the cost. American troops were not demoralized by the Tokyo Roses and Axis Sallies mocking and debasing them during World War II. No one in their right mind would denounce themselves for their skin color, whatever that color may be.

The next time a would-be tyrant attempts to oppress and/or indoctrinate you or your kids, look them in the eye and recite a line from Dirty Harry, “You’ve got to ask yourself one question: ‘Do I feel lucky?’ Well, do you punk?”

 

 

Make-a-Wish Foundation To Grant Wishes Only To Fully Vaccinated Terminally Ill Children

 

The push to indoctrinate intimidate vaccinate every last American, regardless of a rational risk-reward analysis continues unabated. The latest-- and most sinister-- example was provided by the Make-a-Wish Foundation, the organization that makes possible the realization of “life-changing wishes for children with critical illnesses.” The nonprofit’s president and CEO, Richard Davis, recently announced via video that the charity will henceforth only grant wishes to terminally ill children-- and their family members—if they have all been fully vaccinated against COVID-19. Davis noted that Make-a-Wish would require the critically ill children-- as well as any participants from the family-- to be two weeks past full vaccination before the foundation would grant them any wishes, specifically stating: "All wish participants, including your wish kid and any siblings, will need to be two weeks past completion of either a one-dose or a two-dose vaccine.”

Think about that. The charity won’t grant terminally ill children their wishes if they don’t get vaccinated.

We now know something hidden, something irrational or possibly even wicked, is behind the relentless drive to force everyone to accept an unvetted foreign substance into their bodies. These kids are going to die soon. They are just hoping to be granted their last wish. And authorities are telling them (and their families) that they must be vaccinated? That is nothing short of monstrous.

“Hi Bobby, what can we do for you today?”

“Well, I have inoperable cancer and I only have like three months to live, and I’d really love to go deep sea fishing once before I die.”

“Have you and your family been fully vaccinated against the coronavirus?”

“Umm, no, I guess not.”

“Sorry, no can do, buddy. But if you should all get vaccinated before you croak, we might be able to work something out.”

“Maybe my last wish is that I don’t have to be vaccinated.”

“Alright. Run along then. Next.”

What madness is yet to come, requiring recently deceased folks to be vaccinated before cremation?

Moreover, as far as I’m aware, the vaccines have not yet been approved for children under the age of 12. Does this mean Make-a-Wish will no longer be granting wishes to terminally ill kids under that age?

When the virus “escaped” from China, who knew totalitarianism would come with it? 

                  **************************

Make-a-Wish quickly changed its mind and has since announced it will not require terminally ill kids (and their families) to get vaccinated to receive their wish.

 

Drag Queen Story Hour For Babies?

 

Drag queen story hours have become as ubiquitous as Pride Month advertisements from major corporations. In recent years, the DQs have been targeting younger and younger audiences. It seems that nary a kindergarten or Sunday school class has been able to resist the amorphous charms of men dressed as women reading from barely disguised hymnals of transexual and homosexual hype.

This trend recently reached a new zenith when a Virginia library invited preschoolers, toddlers and babies to a drag queen story hour to Celebrate Pride! Month. Your four-month-old can’t understand language yet? No problem! Before he/she/xie/they can say “mommy/daddy/parental unit/menstruator,” we can make sure he/she/xie/they have the tools to avoid being sucked into the pernicious trap the white supremacist patriarchy has set for him/her/xie/they.

But why wait until kids are actually born to indoctrinate them into the cult of non-binary pangenderism? Why not have a drag queen story hour for the pre-born? Get to them in the womb before they are so arbitrarily assigned a gender at birth! Prenatal drag queen story hours should be a no-brainer. Who doesn’t want their fetus to be fabulous! Even if they choose to abort it after the story hour.

           

TikTok, Tick-Tock...

 

Chinese-owned TikTok recently updated its privacy policy in the United States. The immensely popular social video-sharing app, known in China as Douyin, blithely gave itself permission to collect biometric data of U.S. users, including faceprints and voiceprints. The networking service is owned by Bytedance, a Chinese company headquartered in Beijing and founded in 2012.

The newly updated privacy policy reads in part: "We may collect information about the images and audio that are a part of your User Content, such as identifying the objects and scenery that appear, the existence and location within an image of face and body features and attributes, the nature of the audio, and the text of the words spoken in your User Content.”

The CCP TikTok will be “Identifying objects and scenery” and “collecting information” about bodily features and “attributes?” It will be examining “the nature of the audio” and “the text of the words spoken” in its users’ content? Translation: “We will know everything about you, including where you live and what you think. By-the-way, Sarah from Hayward, Wisconsin, you have a lovely figure! We like the red bikini! Just sayin’. Too bad you watch Gutfeld and Hannity, though.”

Words of advice: don’t be caught on a TikTok video saying, “Wuhan Flu,” “China sucks!” or “Xi Jinping has halitosis.”

If the West doesn’t quickly grow a pair and put its foot down vis-à-vis the erstwhile Middle kingdom, it will soon find itself on the ash heap of history.

The clock is winding down.

Tick-tock, tick-tock, tick-tock, TikTok…

Progressives Canceling America

                Eric Kaufmann, professor of politics at the University of London’s Birkbeck College, recently conducted a survey to determine how willing American liberals were to “jettison the country’s cultural identity.” Kaufmann drew his poll group from the Amazon Mechanical Turk and Prolific Academic survey platforms used by countless academics and educators. He then deliberately removed conservatives and centrists in order to focus on self-described liberals. On May 7, 2020 (prior to the death of George Floyd), he surveyed 870 Americans who were “young, liberal, and white,” presenting them with 16 of what he thought to be “outlandish” statements. He was stunned by their answers. He surveyed them once again on June 15^th, five weeks later (after the Floyd killing and subsequent riots) and found the results to be “even crazier.”

              Kaufmann stated: “Every one of these proposals represents a radical blow to American cultural nationhood. Yet … six of them carry the support of more than 50 percent of committed liberals … eight are backed by a majority of the 40 percent of liberals who identify as ‘very liberal.’”

              One of the proposals was to “remodel the statue of liberty to make it better reflect the diversity of America.” Oh, hell yeah. Let’s strip her of her crown and take those silly robes off and put her in a native American headdress, a halter top and yoga pants. Or make the statue trans, leave it naked, and slap multi-colored male and female genitalia on it for all the world to see. While we’re at it, let’s replace the silly torch held high with a boombox on the shoulder. And the law book reading July 4, 1776, in its other hand with a big, fat doobie. And, of course, there will be a large “BLM” sign on the base of the statue.

              Another proposal was to get rid of the four white dudes on Mount Rushmore, “as they presided over the conquest of Native people and repression of women and minorities.” I’m down with that, too. Maybe replace them with Bill and Hillary Clinton, and Barack and Michelle Obama. How cool would that be? Or perhaps we should just put “The Squad” up there. Four women of color, Ayanna Pressley of Massachusetts, Rashida Tlaib of Michigan, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez of New York, and Ilhan Omar of Minnesota. Sure, their average I.Q. might be one-fourth that of those currently ensconced on the rocky escarpment, but they would add much needed color and estrogen to the Black Hills. Don’t fancy “The Squad?” How about we replace the formerly Fab Four with RuPaul (who could be more “fabulous” than that?), Margaret Sanger, Al Sharpton and Caitlyn Jenner? Talk about diversity! No? Beelzebub, Baphomet, Pandora and Nancy Pelosi? Yes!

              Kaufmann also asked those surveyed if the country should move “to a new American flag that better reflects our diversity as a people.” Why not just add a black stripe to the existing LGBTQ flag and adopt that banner as our national symbol?

              Those polled were also asked if English should be replaced by a new language “forged from the immigrant and Native linguistic diversity of this country’s past.” Why not? Pidgin jive? A blend of tribal languages and Spanish, French, Mexican and English? Creole as spoken by someone on acid? What would be the downside?

              Many thought that we should rename our individual states, so that they, too, “better reflect the heritage of Native people and citizens of color.” First off, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New Mexico and New York have to be renamed due to appropriation. Pennsylvania was named for William Penn, a white guy and a Quaker, so it has to be rebranded.

   Of course, we need a new name for the country itself, as well. I humbly submit “The United And Non-Denominational Intersectionalists of Pangendera,” or U AND I P, which is a simple fact that neither assigns nor assumes gender, sexual orientation, race, class or species.

              Respondents were also in favor of replacing “The Star-Spangled Banner” as the national anthem. Again, “to better reflect our diversity as a people.” Might I suggest a few candidates? “Girls Just Wanna Have Fun,” by Cyndi Lauper, “Anaconda,” by Nicki Minaj, “All About That Bass,” by Meghan Trainor, “Police State,” by Dead Prez (ironic?); “F*ck Da Police,” by NWA; or “Pussy Monster” by Lil Wayne. I think we could all stand up together and shed a prideful tear or two at such moving ballads. South Carolina and South Dakota must also be given new names as no state should have the word “South” attached to it. Texas we should just give back to Mexico. Virginia is the home of far too many Founders, so it should be deprived of statehood and be absorbed by the new state to be created from the current District of Columbia (also to be renamed for obvious reasons). And, of course, Washington will have to be relabeled, perhaps as “Obama” or “North Oregon.”

              Another question Kaufmann posed was whether the Constitution should be replaced…with one that better reflects…well, you know the drill by now. I propose that we replace that silly living document (that the Founders came up with after extensively studying every form of government and every type of economy in human history-- and the resultant effects on their societies) with a simpler social code that essentially reads: “If it feels good, do it!”

              Kaufmann said that “80 percent of those who have made up their mind would replace the national anthem and constitution.”

  Politics is downstream from culture. That stream is now a sewer. And it ends in The Swamp.

 

Of Founders, Slavery And Freedom

 

More people around the world are—at least nominally—free than at any other time in history. Free from monarchs, dictators, communism, fascism. Free from serfdom, servitude, slavery, deprivation and extreme oppression. This has ironically led many to take their freedom for granted. Especially in the West. Perhaps the longer you have had something the less you cherish it. Because never before in human history have so many people willingly ceded control of their minds, souls and bodies to others. Examples of this are legion, perhaps none more illustrative and chilling than the reaction to government mandates and restrictions put in place during the coronavirus plandemic pandemic.

Healthy people must stay in their homes for two weeks a year or more? No problem. We have to cover our breathing apparatus with masks, indoors or out? Check. My job is “nonessential?” Yes, sir. I can’t go see my dying grandmother? Okay. Daughter can’t get married if she wants all her friends and family to attend and share her joy? Whatever you say. “Experts” say I must inject an unvetted foreign substance into my body if I wish to attend college or keep my job? Thank you, sir, I’ll have another! We must keep at least six feet apart from all other homo sapiens and eat our Thanksgiving dinner outside? Big Brother knows best!

Whether submitting to hoaxes, obeying frauds or allowing “educators,” “journalists,” Big Tech tyrants, corporate charlatans and unelected bureaucrats to tell us what to do, how to speak, how to think, and what is right, far too many of us have effectively knelt before the emperor. But the emperor has no clothes. It is time for us to acknowledge this fact.

(A brief aside: Those who would enslave us spent four years telling us that President Trump was an emperor, a tyrant. They opposed everything he did or said simply because he did or said it. Turns out, most of what he said was correct. And he was one man fighting, for us, against the vast systemic bigotry of The Left. He was, in fact, the anti-emperor, the embodiment of a true anti-fascist.)

Too many of us have put up with exorbitant taxes, punitive regulations, mindless mandates, and policies that make us less happy, less free and at greater risk of being physically harmed or killed. Enforced mask mandates for us but not for those burning down our cities. Protect our borders? No way. Defund the police? You bet. This madness has to stop. But it can only stop when the vast majority of people no longer choose to be slaves and victims. When unprecedentedly large numbers of people effectively willingly enslave themselves, when they outsource their free will to a government entity, it is a sign of mass insanity, an Age of Delusion. “Voluntary” slavery is anathema to an individual soul, a free society, and to God Himself.

Leftists don’t want us to remember, let alone laud, our Founders, old white men that most were. But, though they were classical liberals—meaning they would be conservatives today-- they were true progressives. Their knowledge, brilliance, self-sacrifice and courage changed the world for the better, ushering in an age of freedom, invention and reason. Some called the results of their endeavors the “5,000 Year Leap.”

And they threw off an oppressive government, in part, because of a mild tax on tea.

As we approach Independence Day, July 4^th, 2021, I’ve found myself looking out at the world and in at my children. “Are we too far gone?” I have asked myself. “Can we still save the republic?” Has the unique quest for equal opportunity morphed into a demand for equal outcome, or equity?

Today I received, via regular old mail, a notice from Hillsdale College, perhaps the last bastion of actual “higher education” in America. It bid me a “Happy Independence Day,” and followed that up with a plea to help preserve the only nation ever “conceived in liberty” by participating in the “Preserve the Declaration Project.”

I humbly ask you to do the same. Simply go to hillsdaleforliberty.com/declaration and download the free commemorative copy of the Declaration of Independence. Sign the pledge to read the Declaration on July 4^th, and then read the Declaration to your family and friends on the Fourth of July during your cookout/party/observance. That’s it.

As Abraham Lincoln said, 87 years later, of the hundreds of thousands who were killed fighting to end slavery and preserve the union: “It is for us the living, rather, to be dedicated here to the unfinished work which they who fought here have thus far so nobly advanced. It is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us—that from these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which they here gave the last full measure of devotion—that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain—that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom, and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth."

158 years later, is it too late to keep government of the people, by the people, for the people, from perishing from the earth? Is it still possible to have a new birth of freedom? Can we save the “last, best hope on earth?”

I honestly don’t know. But let us try.

Dear Lord, let us try.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Bird Names Now Racist

 

Seen a Hammond’s flycatcher lately? Or perhaps a Wallace’s fruit dove? Yes or no, you likely won’t be seeing one again. Don’t worry, it’s not because they are on the edge of extinction. It’s because the humans they were named after are now deemed racist by certain ornery ornithologists. William Alexander Hammond, for example, was a former U.S. surgeon general, but apparently did not think highly of the mental capabilities of Black people. Wallace was a British naturalist, explorer, and anthropologist who assisted Charles Darwin in conceiving the theory of evolution via natural selection. Wallace, however, apparently used the “N” word in his writings, and, since he was neither Black nor a rap “artist,” his name must be eviscerated from the face of the earth.

              Enter Bird Names for Birds (!), a grassroots initiative striving to change potentially offensive eponymous North American bird names. Bird Names for Birds, a name that is for the birds, believes far too many of our avian friends have been named after problematic people…and ergo their names must be changed. Jordan Rutter, the group’s co-founder, says the initiative has identified a list of 150 birds in North America named after people and that it is attempting to get many of those names changed.

              J. Drew Lanham, a Black ornithologist, says “conservation has been driven by white patriarchy.” Really? Could it be that whites organized and catalogued most of the natural world in part to protect it when no one else was doing so?

              Hyper-sensitive so-called “progressives” have set about changing the names of our streets, lakes, school names and sports teams. And now they are going after racist bird names. As if anyone in this increasingly over-educated yet increasingly ignorant nation would have any idea who the birds were named after, let alone what that person thought or did.

              Schoolchildren used to say, “sticks and stones may break my bones, but names will never hurt me.” Now adult scientists are scarred by the name of a bird.

              But it’s not just birds named after “problematic” humans that can offend. Far from it. What about the cardinal? Overly religious and exclusionary to non-Catholics. American Goldfinch? America has certainly finched a lot of gold from the rest of the world’s nations. Purple Martin? Sexist to beat hell. What about Martina? The Killdeer? Violent, scary and confusing. Common Loon? So, making fun of the mentally ill is okay? Same with the cuckoo. Coot? As in, “look at that old coot?” Ageist. Quail? Sounds like Dan Quayle. Yuck. Turkey? Obviously hurtful. Albatross? Like in, “an albatross around my neck?” I think not.  Vulture? Would you want to be called a vulture? How about the Northern pygmy-owl? Are you that callous and small-minded? Yellow-bellied sapsucker? Is there a more hurtful name to call a living being?  Tufted titmouse? Boobie? Talk about the product of a twisted, misogynistic, white patriarchy!

            There is no end to what one can be offended by if one is desperately looking to be offended.

            Rutter and Lanham are nought but virtue-signaling birdbrains. I can only dwell on progressive madness so long before I need a break, so I’m going to pour myself a drink and listen to some music. Kill two birds with one stone so to speak. Perhaps a little Grey Goose and Lynyrd-Skynyrd.

            Free Bird anyone?

New York High School Blaring Sexual Identities Over Loudspeakers

 

A high school in New York’s rural Honeoye Falls-Lima Central School District recently informed parents that school officials will literally be loudly disseminating information about sexual identity over the edifice’s loudspeakers each June day in honor of Pride Month.

The school released a statement proclaiming: “Each day on the announcements we will be talking about a different part of the LGBTQ+ community to help educate people on it.”  Way to end a sentence with a preposition, “educators.”

The ever-growing list of sexual identities and perversions embraced by the LGBTQIIA+ movement/community should make it easy for the school’s officials to generate a month’s worth of material. A point that was illustrated by the first few definitions to which the school referred according to PJ Media: “demi-girl, demi-boy, and demi-sexual.”

A quick check of webmd.com helps edify those of us old fuddy-duddies who aren’t particularly versed in all things demi:

Demisexual people only feel sexually attracted to someone when they have an emotional bond with the person. They can be gay, straight, bisexual, or pansexual, and may have any gender identity. 

The prefix “demi” means half — which can refer to being halfway between sexual and asexual. Demisexuality can be a type of graysexuality. A graysexual person may experience sexual attraction only rarely, or they may feel sexual attraction but aren’t that interested in sex.

Demisexual people do not feel primary attraction — the attraction you feel to someone when you first meet them. They only feel secondary attraction — the type of attraction that happens after knowing someone for a while.

  Some people might use terms for other modes of graysexuality to refer to demisexuality. These include:

• Gray-A
• Hyposexual
• Semisexual
• Low sexual intensity
• Asexual-ish
• Sexual-ish

              Good thing we’ve queered cleared that up!

 Yes, that’s just what we need our educational system to do. What parent doesn’t approve of officials taking to a school’s P.A. system to bark out obscure sexual identities like a crazed Dr. Ruth Westheimer with Tourette syndrome.

 First, there was “the birds and the bees.” (Too binary!)

 Now there is sexual-ish.

Is that really an improvement?

Mueller To Teach Course On Mueller Probe

 

The University of Virginia is planning to host a class on the Mueller investigation of former President Trump, otherwise known as the Great Russian Collusion Hoax. The investigation, which spanned most of three years and cost millions of taxpayer dollars, ended with a whimper, but only after an armed SWAT team, guns drawn, conducted a pre-dawn raid on the home of 66-year old former Trump associate Roger Stone and his wife, an embarrassment to Mueller and law enforcement in general. This would be akin to sending Delta Force to pick up Nancy Pelosi for jaywalking. As Stone said of the 29 FBI agents in 17 vehicles that swarmed his property, “They could have contacted my lawyer.”

The University, founded by Thomas Jefferson, recently announced that its School of Law course will take students “inside the investigation that dominated headlines during the Trump administration.” The news release added that the course will “offer an inside look at the role of special counsel,” and will be taught by former members of Mueller’s team…and Robert Mueller himself! What a concept! No bias here! The release noted the Stone prosecution but somehow omitted the part about the entire investigation being a sham of epic proportions, a political witch-hunt for the ages. The UVA class will almost surely also forget to mention that a prosecutor attached to Mueller’s Special Counsel probe is being investigated for falsely testifying to Congress.

 

Axios reported, “The course will begin with the start of the investigation and Mueller’s appointment as special counsel. It will then focus on the special counsel’s relationship with Congress and the Justice Department, how the investigation related to the White House and the Roger Stone prosecution.”

 

This is as if the Nuremburg Trials were conducted by Nazi Party officials. It is akin to Harvard letting Richard Nixon and H.R. Haldeman teach a course on the Watergate investigation. Did a major university have Oliver Stone and Nancy Reagan teach a course on the Iran-Contra scandal or Bill Clinton lecturing on the Monica Lewinsky affair?

 

Sadly, such is the state of higher education in America today.

 

Somewhere, Thomas Jefferson weeps.

 

 

 

 

Biden Hands Putin List Of Targets

               In one of the most pathetic and bizarre presidential acts in history, Joseph Robinette Biden said-- during a short solo session with the press in Geneva-- that he gave Russian President Vladimir Putin a list of 16 areas of “critical infrastructure” that he thinks should be off limits for cyberattacks.

              In other words, he just furnished Putin with a list of top targets, already ranked by the devastation they would cause if they were to be attacked!  Moreover, he is implicitly stating that anything not on the list can be attacked with impunity!

             This is as if FDR handed Japan and Germany a list of 16 targets that he really, really hoped they would consider off limits due to their importance to the U.S.’s war effort.

This is insane. And this guy has been in government for 50 years? This is the guy who was to restore “normalcy” and dignity to the United States? This is the clown who supposedly received more votes than any other presidential candidate in American history?

Ronald Reagan once famously stated, “Mr. Gorbachev, tear down this wall!”

Joe Biden effectively said, “Mr. Putin, please don’t breach some of our firewalls.”

Remember, Reagan also said, “Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn't pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same, or one day we will spend our sunset years telling our children and our children's children what it was once like in the United States where men were free.”

Reagan was a leader. Biden is, to use an ugly leftist term, a non-viable tissue mass.

 

New Jersey School District Bans All Holiday Names

 

                  President Joseph Robinette Biden Jr. recently signed legislation establishing June 19^th as “Juneteenth,” hereafter to be a U.S. federal holiday commemorating the end of slavery. Biden signed the bipartisan Congressional bill into law following its successful passage through Congress.

                   One wonders, however, if the day will henceforth have to be referred to as simply “day off,” given the actions of a New Jersey school district’s board of education. Randolph Township, a city an hour west of the Big Apple, had previously renamed Columbus Day “Indigenous Peoples Day,” an action that didn’t go over well with all its residents. Ergo, in an effort to avoid offending anyone at all, the Randolph Board of Education recently decided to purge school calendars of all holiday names, period.

              That’s right, Christmas will be listed as “day off.” As will Thanksgiving, Easter, Rosh Hashanah, New Year’s Day, President’s Day, Memorial Day, Independence Day, Labor Day, etc. Martin Luther King Day, too, right?

              Board member Dorene Roche noted, "If we don't have anything on the calendar,” we won't have to have anyone with “hurt feelings or anything like that.” Sorry, Ms. Roche, you can’t get off that easy. Think about this, the board members actually voted to cancel all holiday names to avoid offending anyone in the world by recognizing special days that reference a person, holiday, ethnic group, place, thing, idea or entity.  How offensive is that?

              Maybe we should just banish language altogether. And concepts, ideas…thought.

              And the board’s vote was unanimous. Which led some attending the board meeting to cry out in disbelief and anger. One man shouted, "What did you just do?  What just happened?"

 

              It’s okay everyone. Enjoy your day off. Just don’t ask why you have it.

                       

 

Colored Wristbands New Pandemic Accessory

 

              The Wall Street Journal recently reported on a new Pandemic-Era accessory. No, it’s not a facial mask, glove, piece of protective eyewear, work-from-home-kit, or even an “I’ve Been Vaccinated” button. It is a colored bracelet that signals one’s current boundaries regarding mingling in the time of the coronavirus.

              Modeled on traffic lights, a red band means “no contact” with “no exceptions.” A yellow one essentially means “elbow bumps only.” A person sporting a green wristband is saying: “hugs welcome.”

              Office managers, convention and wedding planners, and party hosts are among those distributing the color-coded wristbands, which are designed to signal preferences without awkward conversations. 

Like others of its kind, the Chesterfield Chamber of Commerce in Virginia has restarted its in-person business networking events. The CCOC is using the color-coded bands. Danielle Fitz-Hugh, the chamber’s president, noted that the reds usually just stand off to the side of the room, while “the greens are just ready to party.”

Since the wristbands can get covered up by long sleeves, leaving folks staring at others’ wrists trying to figure out their level of comfort with human interaction, color-coded lanyards and stickers are now also becoming popular. In any case, the colors mean the same thing across the various accessories. The following is a more literal—and accurate-- explanation of their meanings:

Red: “Stay far away from me you cretinous leper! People make me sick!”

Yellow: “I chose this band/sticker because I’m yellow-bellied, too timid to commit to either red or green.”

Green: “Let’s do it on the table right now!”        

Suffice it to say, greens may paint the town red, while reds may, deep down, be green with envy.

But what of other colors? Are more hues needed?

Perhaps blue could indicate a person who has lost the will to live during the endless pandemic and governments’ tyrannical response to same. Not that anyone would care, because we all know that blue lives don’t matter.

Red and yellow make orange, so orange could indicate someone who is on the border between no human contact whatsoever and an elbow bump. Maybe you could give that person an “air elbow bump” from 10 or 12 feet away.

It is no longer enough to virtue-signal. We must now also overtly indicate our tolerance for all things human.

Color me sad.
