Every now and then a true racist pops its head from The Right to express what you'd think a racist would express.

An article, written by William M. Briggs, in which the following screen cap was posted on was pinged back to an NRx site. Meet "Liberty Mike." Mike wrote the following when Briggs showed some sympathy to military members, whom he referred to as warriors, about the purge that Biden's Secretary of Defense, Lloyd Austin, was planning against conservative officers and enlisted members. 


I actually like some aspects of NRx, one of many denominations of what is called the alt-right. With that said I have come across one racist who didn't believe non-whites could possibly understand what it meant to be part of a male fraternity (Greek Letter Organization) that wasn't race/ethnic focused (i.e. black or Asian fraternities) in America and uphold the organization's values because they simply weren't white. Though Liberty Mike pinged back the article to an NRx site, I am not sure if Liberty Mike is anyway sympathetic to NRx. He might be. I wouldn't be too surprised if he was, given what he said and  by my observations, experience and reading of the general beliefs of those in the NRx camp about race and ethnicity.

It's a strange post by Liberty Mike since the military does not protect what he thinks/wants them to protect. It was never in their job description no matter the MOS in whatever branch and component (Reserve, Guard). What he's upset about is the job of politicians who craft public policy, not the military. Perhaps Mike expects the military to intimidate non-whites or uphold true systemic racism and bigotry.

In his last paragraph, Liberty Mike openly advocates for the firing of anyone for any reason - be it their color of their skin, religion or lack there of, sexual orientation etc. What he wants are the days of the Old West were,  more or less, social anarchy was the rule of law once you passed the Mississippi River. 

Liberty Mike is the white guy who holds many disgusting ideas in his head and diminishes what is actual liberty. Liberty Mike is the guy who doesn't make America great. He's the type you punch in the face - out of your own liberty to enact on your own disgust.

"You're a racist!"

PLACE: Youtube comment section.Video about suburban life in the 1950s. Family shown is white.

Comment 1: This was when America was great! MAGA!

Comment 2: Yea, if you were white,  male and heterosexual.

Comment 3. This video isn't about race.

Comment 2: It's about the 1950s.

Comment 3: It is, but you're basically making it into something that it isn't.

Comment 2: Are you denying the fact that blacks didn't have rights before the Civil Era?

Comment 3: I'm not denying it, but why bring it in here? My parents aren't white and they're doing fine.

Comment 2: Good for your family. But plenty of minorities suffered from discrimination before Civil Rights laws were passed in the 1960's and even after that.  Ask them what life was like in the 50s. Ask the people who marched and fought for civil rights what it was like. Get your head out of your ass. Just because life was good for you doesn't mean it was good for everybody.

Comment 4: In life-your outcome is directly related to your effort. Plenty of brown skinned individuals thrive in life. They made wise choices, they pushed themselves to the next level. Prime example, Dr. Ben Carson, admirable. hard working, aimed for excellence & achieved it!! The south was & still is a different situation. We have laws to protect everyone.

Comment 2: The south does now. But back in the 50s that wasn't the case. That's the point I tried to make that some people just don't get.

Comment 3: lol telling me to get my head outa my ass when I'm not the one living the in the past. That's the MO of your kind - play the "but the 1950s" and "muh Civil Rights" cards like it just happened a decade ago. Why don't you find a black man and ask him about the 1950s, a black that's over the age of 65. The 1950s is like the boogeyman man decade for you race baiters. Shit, you should be indignant about the shootings in Chicago. More blacks are dead by their own kind than by the white man in that city. Your sorry ass is brainwashed that you look at history in a narrative/thematic way that you're unable to approach it dispassionately. 

Comment 2: Um, this is the comment section for a video ABOUT the 1950s which is why I've been talking about the 1950s. And black people in the 1950s had to fight for basic civil rights that white people took for granted. That's a FACT and part of our history whether you like it or not.

Comment 3:  It's about the lifestyle middle class 1950s, not about blacks and inequality of the 1950s. That's a fact. You commenting about civil rights in a video that has mostly nothing to do with it shows your cards of that of someone fixated on race who pathetically begrudges the decade. You might as well complain about WWII while you're at it and how Japanese-Americans were put in camps.

"That's a FACT and part of our history whether you like it or not."

Ah, the original sin of America: slavery, Jim Crow laws and racism. Hey, Skylark, get the fuck over it. The FACT doesn't sway me to adopt your mentality. In fact, I out grew it a few years ago. Now if the video commented on how everyone was happy, marriages were amazing, and there was little to no racism then I'd probably object to it, but the video said non of those things. Your facts, again, have little to do with what's being portrayed in the video. You hijacked it to shove your race bullshit here while appealing to emotions in the name of "facts." Here's a fact from the 1950s: women were mostly stay at home moms. My brown mom doesn't give two shits. But maybe some rapid feminist will, like the "concerned" Skylark does with race. #MAGA #FuckSJWs #FuckBLM

Comment 2:  I didn't hijack anything. My first comment was that life could be great in the 1950s if you were white and middle-class, which is what the video is about.  You're the one who's hijacked the discussion with your rants about race baiting and black crime. But seeing your hashtags clarifies everything so I'll consider the source and not waste any more of my time trying to argue with a racist.  Life's too short.

Comment 3:  Ya, you did hijack. You're trying hard to say, "No you're the one who did it, meanie!" A pathetic attempt to paint me as a race baiter ... Do you even know what that is? You turned the video about race. The video wasn't about race nor did it even mention it. Who's the race baiter again?

"But seeing your hashtags clarifies everything so I'll consider the source and not waste any more of my time trying to argue with a racist. Life's too short."

So you're the kind who covers his ears, shuts his eyes and says, "I'm not listening! Nah nah nah nah!" It's highly ironic you shut your brain off when you see these: #MAGA #FuckSJWs #FuckBLM But hey, I'm a "racist." And you're right, life's short - you can't start thinking critically about history or question SJW's or BLM, because that'll be "racist" and we can't have that now.

Trump had denounced the white nationalist alt-right sect.

Now I don't think Trump has a good grasp on what the alt-right actually is and what it entails, the good and the bad.

Regardless, it's a good thing he has done this because ethno-nationalists like Richard Spencer, and all the anti-Semites have been given a clear message: thanks for the support, glad you voted for me, but we gotta cut the cord.


I'll admit, I'm somewhat sympathetic to the whole white identity thing, understanding their realization that America is being flooded with immigrants with academia and the media smiling quietly as it happens. After VP Biden said that whites being the minority is a good thing, seeing multiculturalism as a peak of progressiveness, I understand their feelings of betrayal. In some way The Left created the white nationalism sect of the alt-right.

With that said, Spencer totally fucked up when he included "Hail Trump!" As one youtube comment puts it - "Alt-right is over for a white identity group because of a bunch of stupid LARPing autistic retards doing the Nazi salute while the media is filming." The fact that the whole white identity branch is rather cringeworthy to begin with it never was going to pick up real steam anyways.

I just find it a little funny, this whole event. White nationalists like Spencer were so excited about Trump's election only to shoot themselves in the foot 13 days later.

"I guess Trump wasn't our guy after all....." one white nationalist puts it after learning about the President-Elect's dismissal of them. He never was.

The never ending road to "nowhere."

It always makes me chuckle when people say "we got a long way to go" when talking about social issues, say, campus rape culture or civil rights. It's usually those that believe that 1 out of 4 women are raped on any college campus. It's usually those that, for whatever reason, think LGBT's are a legit victim group.

In the Boston Globe there's an article concerning campus rape. Campus rape is horrid, but I'm skeptical of these surveys. They always end in destroying traditions (Harvard final's club) and always point to fingers at greek life. Take this comment
"On a recent flight I watched the old WWI movie, "A Farewell to Arms", made in 1932. I was appalled to see that what was called a "romance" started when the main character stalked and harassed a nurse. When she rejected his advances, he kept touching her and insisting, until she finally slapped him. And then he kept on, and eventually she "gave in." This was date rape, characterized as a classic romance. I would say things are improving these days, but obviously there is still a long way to go."

Christian Hoff Sommers further expands on why she thinks surveys and studies depicting campus rape as frequent as opening a book are wrong. The danger to not believing the surveys are people who are taken aback who say, "Well, that one survey had interviews with the sample. Are you daring to question the responses of the women who were interviewed?" Yes.

Rape is a horrid crime, but I'm willing to give the benefit of the doubt the organizations being blamed for rape (fraternities, all-male final's clubs) and look with an equally stern eye to the women and administrators who accuse. UVA turned out to be a false story. The Duke lacrosse story also was deemed highly inaccurate. 

Besides comments totally buying into the survey there were the usual comments dismissing conservatives.
"Gee, I missed that policy message. Where did you find that ? Glen Beck, Limpbag? O'Really? Faux News?"
The only people who bring up such people and network in that way are leftists. I remember watching an interview with the Harry Potter trio where each actor needed to say a word with an American accent, with Daniel Radcliffe receiving "Glenn Beck" in a card. He immediately responded that he didn't want to. I found this strange and rather presumptuous. This was in 2010. Radcliffe was 18 at the time; I was rather liberal when I saw the video but even I didn't have an issue with Glenn Beck being on the card. Without fail the man's an atheist and supports LGBT rights as if the LGBT in either the UK or US were being thrown off of buildings. There's no doubt Radcliffe believes what comes out of BBC and there's no doubt that those he admires have influenced his beliefs.

But back to "the never ending road." SJW's see injustice everywhere. They step out of their room and look out the window and they see injustice. Harvard, the most well-known academic brand, is not immune to "righting the wrongs." Students of the university's law school have successfully petitioned to change the program's seal. Why? Because it has sheaves of wheat which reminds people of slavery.


I do see where the sheaves of wheat is controversial, but I ultimately am not compelled to be angered over it. Yes, Isaac Royal Jr., the land benefactor of Harvard Law School, was a slave owner. So what. Hypothetically, if Royal's house was built by slaves and was put on the shield instead would indignation be present? I'd say no. But because sheaves of wheat are usually associated with slaves in America it's "inconsistent with the values of both the university and the law school." (I could not find Harvard Law "values.")

This isn't the only incident where Harvard was desperate to shed of any connotation of slavery or racism. Recently it has been decided to remove the title of "master" for faculty positions heading the university's residential houses, and instead have renamed them "faculty dean." The damn title, "master," in this case wasn't even slave related, but one of authority and respect towards the undergraduates.

So how many more miles do we have to go?

Gloating. It's what "the other" does.

As in The Left.

On Twitter,  Clarence Thomas (#ClarenceThomas) has been trending after the death of Chief Justice Antonin Scalia this evening. Why? He's been showing up on the "death lists" of leftist who are rejoicing over Scalia's passing. Why the animosity towards the man? He wasn't like Chief Justice Ginsburg, the most liberal Chief Justice.

Besides the making the "death lists," other liberals are mocking Thomas on how he's going to function since they believe that Scalia was the one influencing Thomas' rulings in the past 25 years.

After unabashedly supporting abortion (some supporting partial abortion up till delivery), same-sex "marriage," the great support of having children in one's 30s (for a woman) or not having children at all, it's hard not to say The Left is The Cult of Death. Add in many are irreligious or are atheists. Darkness indeed. But they got the rainbow freak flag flying high, though.

KKK to plan a rally outside S.C. courthouse.

Oh boy. These people are actually planning to assemble in public. 

If this rally is approved by the governor ... I don't know what the results will be. I wouldn't be surprised if the Black Panthers show up. The Army National Guard of S.C. would most likely be called upon to help keep the peace.

As someone who has heard of the KKK I'm bizarrely looking forward to this. It is not because I support what they believe in or say, but because I never saw them live. I've seen the white hoods in pictures. I've watched Birth of A Nation; I've seen their depiction in O Brother, Where Art Thou? The closest thing that I've witnessed to the KKK were Neo-Nazis and the Dylan Roof types.

It's like hearing about an infamous legend that has been rarely seen since your birth, and it sending a note to the community saying "Heads up motherfuckers. I got a meet and greet on this date. Be there." It's as if one of Satan's minor demons was provoked thanks to the political correctness to get rid of the Confederate flag and all things that reminded people of the Civil War.

This is when smart phones come in handy to capture confrontations.

Banning the Confederate Flag at the state's capital won't do any good.

It's a knee jerk reaction to the Charleston, S.C. shooting.


Banning it from sales is another knee jerk reaction. It is similar when people wanted to re-name french fries to Freedom Fries.

Of course, this is mostly due the stigma attached to the flag. Many see it as equal to the Nazi flag. When people think of the Confederate flag, at least those who are socially "progressive," they think of almost everything redneck-ish and everything that is "embarrassing" about America. This includes slavery which was present in confederate states, racism, lynching and murders in the name of white supremacy. On face value all of these things seems to form a reasonable argument to hold the flag in contempt and to ban it. I feel that the narrative, coming from social "progressives" and a modern day liberals, is incomplete. This is not to say I support slavery, lynches or white supremacy; this is to say that the black & white (the irony) picture painted by anti-Confederate flag, anti-South types, has a shallow feeling to it.

H.K. Edgerton sees things differently. 



The banning of the flag is another pathetic attempt at a "Je suis Charlie." It's a another "Hands up, Don't shoot!" attempt at solidarity. Well, Islam extremists are still causing havoc - the whole "Je suis Charlie" lasted no longer than a week and the man who agitated the terrorists was an actual bigoted atheist; turns out Brown's cry of "Hands up, Don't shoot!" mantra was born out of lies.

A ridiculous thing that has been born out of S.C. shooting is that news/culture journalists are asking Republicans and whites to take responsibility for the tragedy. I'm not white, but I find that downright insulting. Of course, journalists who say this don't like Republicans (I'm an independent voter despite by politics) and they play off the childish belief that if you're a Republican, and white, that you're probably a closeted racist and that the plight of blacks and whatever 'oppressed' group is due to the ideologies coming from the backwards, gun-toting, people who live places like the South.   

Do you know what, forget what the S.C. governor and her backers say about it. Forget the confederate flag haters. I'd rather see it be flown than the Rainbow Brigade of Non-Straights Flag. In fact, I'm going to purchase a confederate flag right now.

UPDATE: Alabama governor orders Confederate flag to be taken down from state's capital building.

If the governor of both South Carolina and Alabama feel that the Confederate flag doesn't have a place at the state's capitol what other social "progressive" issues will they back? Answer: The Supreme Court will decide on gay "marriage" this week, which absurdly is seen as the same as racial segregation and conjures up feelings of what the Confederate flag means to social "progressives."

Again, modernism - when bought into - is filled with irony. They want to erase (and only bring back the past when it's convenient) certain aspects of culture that irate them (and usually they have little to no experiences, if not understanding, with these aspects), yet they tend to replace it with something that is inferior.

Stop the earth rotating, Superman, there's racism!

Okay, and? 

It's so obvious what the producers tried to do here, and somewhat succeeded. What Would You Do? is an ABC prime time show. It puts people (actors) facing awkward social situations (racism, sexism etc.) that are staged in order to see what the unexpected population do and say. Sometimes the goal (to paint small towns as racist, sexist, homophobic etc.) gets the controversial results; sometimes it doesn't. In this episode an elderly woman expresses why people of different skin color should date and marry people within their own race. I don't necessarily see anything wrong with that - it's somewhat similar to the religious deciding to marry someone with the same faith. It's a reasonable belief.  

Ah! Racists and religion are two sides of the same coin! Nope. To be honest, I don't think the elderly woman or the woman agreeing with are racists.

And the comments on the video. Dear Allah. This is the proof that modernism is absolutely ridiculous.

"I can't believe such a person exists!"

Welcome to the reality of diversity of thought.

I'd rather sit down with that elderly woman, a supposed "outed" racist, while having a cup of hot chocolate than sit down with the cast & crew of WWYD? The look on their faces were priceless.

"Did you catch that Cynthia? Dear Lord I can't believe what's happening."
"Jim, camera 4. Grab a headphone."

Sins and crimes through a modernist lens are, and make sure you write these down:

Racism
Sexism
Homophobia

Are there racists in America? Yes. Are there sexists in America? Yes. Are there homophobes in America? Yes. Were the people who did not approve of interracial dating racists? I say no.

What do you think? Do you think the elderly woman is a racist?

Not enough black people! Not enough women!

An  injustice has occurred. As the nominees for the 87th Oscars were revealed this morning, besides people getting upset over supposed "snubs" and issuing complaints over who were nominated, other complaints had nothing to do with quality or skill, but of race and "gender" (in quotes because I use the term sex, not gender).

There's too white and there's not enough women, apparently. The horror. The injustice.

The cards of racism and sexism will be pulled out and played.

Wait, isn't Hollywood aka the movie industry one of the more open minded and tolerable places to work in in America, let alone the world, yet it somehow manages - in many SJW's eyes - to be "racist" and "sexist"? I guess they're going for perfection.

Since Birdman did not make it for Best Editing, and instead American Sniper did, a poster had a theory why -
Old white people.  Now this isn't necessarily a blank accusation -

Poster zombiedance is known to pull cards like these. He's basically the walking stereotype of non-white "pretty damn liberal" guy. In other words narrow-mined, naive and insanely retarded in the most functional way, if that makes any sense at all.

The issues I have with the study is that it takes account for the overall makeup of those within AMPAS acting voting branch, but no word of the makeup of those that actually cast their votes.

Tumblr's SJW object to Sleepy Hollow

SPOILERS

There is underlying racism at work according to some posters on tumblr.

IMDb poser MonaRich sensed something wasn't right (them spider senses are tingling!), but thanks to tumblr she was able to make sense of this warning -

Killing off/undermining/sidelining all the POC and then having actual dialogue in the show about how the four white trees will turn black and that means they're extra evil and having Moloch rip off his white skin to reveal the scary evil black thing underneath after he had masqueraded as a pure blonde innocent Aryan prince. Like this *beep* isn't even subtle. It's about as subtle as Birth of a Nation. These new writers are trash.
HarveyMidnight pitches in -

A lot of people felt that it was -- what can we say, somewhat ignorant? -- for the season 2 writers to shove Irving onto the sidelines, push Crane further forward as a 'main character' making Abbie somewhat of a sidekick instead of a balanced equal to him, and outright replace Jenny with a white man who has almost exactly the same skill-set.
Considering Crane and Abbie are the two "witnesses" and not Irving, putting Irving as a secondary character is absolutely understandable. Even in the start of the show I knew Irving wasn't a 'main character' - though one of the 'main' secondary characters. As the season went on Irving still played a vital role; he was written rather effectively and it's nice role for any actor to take on - one filled with many complexes, emotions and trials.

I do not know what show they watched, honestly, but if I'd take a guess I'd guess out of all the episodes Abbie is more of the leader in the adventures than Crane. Maybe because the two actors playing the respective roles differ in height substantially some may come to the conclusion that Abbie is the side-kick.

If we talk about portrayals, Abbie, not only being beautiful, is shown to be amazingly resilient, self-sufficient, smart and resourceful; she is Crane's guide to the modern world and sometimes acts as a bigger sister to him. Crane, when he's met with a modern phrase or piece of technology that bemuses him, is written as the comic relief in a very endearing/charming way. Abbie is practically the rock in their relationship - she may not be flashy or as endearing as her male friend, but it is more of her show than Crane's, so far.

What makes this "Abbie is getting the shaft" issue more interesting is that posters are complaining that Abbie doesn't have a love interest. Yep. Before having a love interest for our heroes would've been deemed sexist in a couple of scenarios: If it was a 'typical' relationship with some 'hot' guy or if the relationship showed the woman in a more passive light than She-Male. I thought being a strong, independent woman who doesn't need a love interest to be happy was of grave importance to show young females across the globe that they too can be She-Males? Whoops.

There's more (Akeda is the name of an episode in S.2) -
I have so many complaints about Akeda. But this is the one that hurt the most and forgive me because this is heavy and I might not be the best person to voice this, but I gotta get off my chest cause last night it had me close to tears.

Media doesn’t exist in vacuum. So what does it say when a show’s only black male lead is sidelined for the majority of the season only to be cut down after twenty minutes of focus? What does it say when the white male lead, then turns around and offers his killer a “life of his choosing” rather than insisting he be brought to any measure of justice due to some clannish misguided notion of loyalty/empathy to his own kind when it is clearly unearned?

Goffman said that they chose to kill Frank because they wanted to make the war feel real. Well thats awesome, congrats, it feels real. Too bad the Cranes didn’t get the memo. Too bad the writer’s didn’t either.

The timing is so *beep* up for this. This was beyond insensitive. This hurt.
Because Crane is suppose to be a Hero. And Frank, goddamnit - Frank mattered. Frank was a friend. His life, his family, his sacrifice all mattered.

Except it didn’t and his one champion was literally injured, tied up, and effectively silenced so the Cranes’ ‘oh so interesting’ unconditional love for their murdering white son could take center stage. And as of right now, the narrative has rewarded them for that and that is really really gross. This show is gross, the writers are gross, the ‘hero’ is gross and I don’t see any indication that that is going to change though I really hope I’m wrong.
Italics: You're making me laugh, seriously. I'll say this: Quit your bitching you little bitch. I was more upset that J.K. Rowling said Ron and Hermione was more of an accident and thought of divorce for them (did she follow through?).

Note: It doesn't help that it seems that many of the fans of Sleepy Hollow fall under the SJW/OmurGurd/My-Feelings-It's-All-About-Emotions group. Like I said in previous posts, I wish my interests and hobbies were different. But they are not.

tiring and annoying

The racism "framework", as I like to call it, is about blacks and whites. Seriously. It's like nails on a freakin' chalk board. There are other people who aren't black or white that experience racism.

It's so bipolar it makes me sick.
