Most disgusting Tweet ever

One day after the 75th anniversary of the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising, I saw a Tweet that is a few months old, but is the most disgusting Tweet I’ve ever seen.

Bernie Standers, an old Socialist, and Matt Deitsch, a young Parkland Progressive using #NeverAgain and their Jewish Identity to push for gun control.

This is unbelievable.

Without a doubt Senator Honeymooned-in-the-land-of-Gulags wants to take guns away.

But somebody needs to teach Mr. Deitsch about his history and how Socialists like Sanders threw Jews into Death Camps.

This is as dangerously ignorant as anything I’ve ever seen.

Truly despicable.

Birds of a feather….

The “Parkland students,” and more specifically Cameron Kasky, Jacklyn Corin, David Hogg, Emma Gonzales, and Alex Wind are listed (collectively) as one of Time Magazine’s 100 Most Influential People.

The passage about them was written by Barack Obama.

Like everything else in his administration, it is a load of platitude bullshit.

This time, something different is happening. This time, our children are calling us to account.

The Parkland, Fla., students don’t have the kind of lobbyists or big budgets for attack ads that their opponents do. Most of them can’t even vote yet.

But they have the power so often inherent in youth: to see the world anew; to reject the old constraints, outdated conventions and cowardice too often dressed up as wisdom.

Well, they are backed by a bunch of progressive anti gun groups, so they actually do have lobbyists and big budgets.

Trying to repeal the Second Amendment, ban guns, and confiscate firearms is not  “cowardice too often dressed up as wisdom.”  It was the wisdom of our Founders that gave us gun rights and cowardice in political leaders that makes the want to take guns away.

Seared by memories of seeing their friends murdered at a place they believed to be safe, these young leaders don’t intimidate easily. They see the NRA and its allies—whether mealymouthed politicians or mendacious commentators peddling conspiracy theories—as mere shills for those who make money selling weapons of war to whoever can pay. They’re as comfortable speaking truth to power as they are dismissive of platitudes and punditry. And they live to mobilize their peers.

No, they are bullies who lie and call NRA members terrorists to try and punish law abiding gun owners for something one crazy person did and two law enforcement agencies didn’t stop.

Already, they’ve had some success persuading statehouses and some of the biggest gun retailers to change. Now it gets harder. A Republican Congress remains unmoved. NRA scare tactics still sway much of the country. Progress will be slow and frustrating.

Not these kids.  The kids who have been effective, like Kyle Kashuv aren’t rabidly anti gun.

But by bearing witness to carnage, by asking tough questions and demanding real answers, the Parkland students are shaking us out of our complacency. The NRA’s favored candidates are starting to fear they might lose. Law-abiding gun owners are starting to speak out. As these young leaders make common cause with African Americans and Latinos—the disproportionate victims of gun violence—and reach voting age, the possibilities of meaningful change will steadily grow.

No, law abiding gun owners are not turning on the NRA and intersectionality and identity politics is destroying the Left as it eats itself.  Also assuming there are no minority gun owners is racist.

Our history is defined by the youthful push to make America more just, more compassionate, more equal under the law. This generation—of Parkland, of Dreamers, of Black Lives Matter—embraces that duty. If they make their elders uncomfortable, that’s how it should be. Our kids now show us what we’ve told them America is all about, even if we haven’t always believed it ourselves: that our future isn’t written for us, but by us.

It’s not youth but ignorant, self righteous bullying that makes people uncomfortable.  These kids know nothing but get up on stage and insult everyone that disagrees with them.   Saying law abiding gun owners “have blood on their hands/faces” is not “more compassionate” that’s tyranny.

If these kids are the future, than the future is full of gulags.

The one thing that I did note in all of this is the irony, missed by Time, that Obama who was the best gun salesman in history is praising the kids who are responsible for the biggest spike in NRA membership in years.

If you put Obama, Hogg, and Gonzales in the same room together with CNN I’m pretty sure the lines coming out of gun stores would look like the lines coming out of Apple stores on new iPhone day.

So keep it up guys, the industry needs you.

MSNBC Progressives and property rights

This is a video from MSNBC from the 18th.

Here we see an MSNBC host Stephanie Ruhle an her $500,000 annual salary admitting that she goes into Starbucks to use the bathroom and charge her phone and not buy anything.

Everybody on the panel is justifying this type of behavior, never once considering the property rights of business owners.

This is Champagne Socialism of the highest order.  Starbucks is a “big company” never mind that each store is a Franchise.  It can be there to charge phones, and provide WiFi and bathrooms to people who don’t want to buy anything because someone else will pay for it.

Every business owner in America should watch this with disgust and feeling like they want to vomit.

A bunch of wealthy Progressives absolutely throwing away the idea of property rights.

If this is the view of MSNBC, their headquarters in New York should be used to house homeless people.  Let some meth addicts with mental problems sleep on the leather couch in Stephanie Ruhle’s corner office.

Let’s see what Starbucks does now

A day ago I made a post about how one Starbucks gave a man a free cup of “reparations” coffee when he demanded it.

Now a fake coupon for free coffee is floating around the internet.

Zoom in:

Will Starbucks honor it?

Why they apologize to the people who try to redeem this for being “tricked” by a fake coupon?

Or will they see it as a way for grievance-mongers to further bully a Progressive company?

Right now, I don’t know.  What I do know is that if Starbucks tired any harder to acquiesce to the Progressive mob, Starbucks better install showers in their bathrooms and just allow anybody who is a member of a Progressive victim group to live in Starbucks, rent free.

 

Starbucks and Kipling

In its entirety:

It is always a temptation to an armed and agile nation To call upon a neighbour and to say: — “We invaded you last night–we are quite prepared to fight, Unless you pay us cash to go away.”

And that is called asking for Dane-geld, And the people who ask it explain That you’ve only to pay ’em the Dane-geld And then you’ll get rid of the Dane!

It is always a temptation for a rich and lazy nation, To puff and look important and to say: — “Though we know we should defeat you, we have not the time to meet you. We will therefore pay you cash to go away.”

And that is called paying the Dane-geld; But we’ve proved it again and again, That if once you have paid him the Dane-geld You never get rid of the Dane.

It is wrong to put temptation in the path of any nation, For fear they should succumb and go astray; So when you are requested to pay up or be molested, You will find it better policy to say: — “We never pay any-one Dane-geld, No matter how trifling the cost; For the end of that game is oppression and shame, And the nation that pays it is lost!” 

Every Social Justice Warrior with a grievance is going to come to you with one hand out and the other in a fist and will have no choice but to pay them off.

Congratulations Starbucks, you just paid the Dane Geld.  Now you will never get rid of the Dane.

This is what happens when they stop teaching the classics in Liberal Arts.  The wisdom of our past is lost.

The Women’s March goose steps onward

Tamika Mallory is a co chair of tye Women’s March.  She’s also a huge fan of Louis Farrakhan.

Starbucks announced it was going to brainwash its employees with anti bias training.  One of the groups that will be involved in this Social Justice forced reeducation is the ADL.

That was too much for Mallory.

I have my own problems with the ADL.  They are a bunch of Lefty Jews.  They refused to stand up against Muslim anti Semitism, are anti gun, and are suspicious of anybody right of center.

But the groups Mallory names are radically Left wing.  The Jewish Voice for Peace is an anti Israel group that has justified Palestinian terrorism in the name of Social Justice.   They are completely nuts.

So of course the only “good” Jewish organizations are the Marxist ones that ones that want to destroy Israel and give land back to the Palestinians.

They might as well list Ilsa, She Wolf of the SS as a Women’s March co chair.  That’s about the level of Jew hatred they are at.
