“‘We Need a Disney Princess Who’s…’–Never Mind” (2018)

Every now and then, Far Left Crazy goes too far and has to pull back, the public having reacted to them with disgust and anger. Like the time Keystone Planned Parenthood tweeted that “we need” (who’s we?) “a Disney princess who’s had an abortion!” And that was just for starters.

‘We Need a Disney Princess Who’s…’ –Never Mind

What I don’t understand about this age we’re living in is why we have to tolerate all the abominations that the leftids heap on our culture–I mean, sheesh, isn’t that whole “Disney princess” thing bad enough just as is?

We could so very easily do without it.

An Old Phone Scam, Tried Again

Latest Phone Call Scams: How to Stop & Report Them

So the phone rang a few minutes ago, and I thought my editor was calling me… but it wasn’t.

“Hi, Grandpa.”

“Who is this?”

“Your grandson.”

I don’t have a grandson, so I hung up. It’s been years since we got this scam tried on us. I’m your grandson (name never volunteered), and I need bail money/need to pay off a loan/gimme yo’ money, whatever.

Obviously what they’re trying to do is get hold of some hopelessly senile Joe Biden types and swindle them out of their money. Isn’t this shameful? It’s like the whole Western world sinks to a new low every day. They hope their victim doesn’t even remember whether he has a grandson or not.

Preying on the helpless. What kind of subhuman parasite does that?

I’ll bet we get nine or ten scam phone calls every day.

And then there’s Congress…

Loudon County Schools’ ‘Anti-Racist’ Witch Hunt

Posted By: leeduigon(patty)Posted On:

“Educating” your children…

We don’t need actual tyrants anymore to take away our liberty. Ordinary schlubs will volunteer to do it.

In Loudon County, Virginia, a coven calling itself “Anti-Racist Parents of Loudon County” is trying to recruit hackers to “silence” and “expose” any parents who have questioned, criticized, or been appalled by the school district’s devotion to “critical race theory” (https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2021/03/teachers-plot-parents-question-racial-curriculum/).

I hear a sane person asking, “What’s that?” Well! “Critical Race Theory,” CRT for short, teaches that all white persons are racists, all guilty of racism, and must all be made to suffer for it. Nice thing to be teachin’ in the schools, don’t you think? And you are not allowed to disagree! ‘Cause if you do, the “anti-racist parents,” most of whom are “teachers” or former teachers, will do their racketeering best to make your life a hell.

There’s a rumor that some George Soros money is involved in this. Soros money elected a Far Left Crazy county prosecutor, who apparently is going to allow these, um, “parents” to racketeer to their hearts’ consent.

Meanwhile the county sheriff is “reviewing the situation.” Whatever that means.

But the good nooze is, we don’t need tyrants anymore! Any nasty little nest of Democrats can create tyranny wherever they happen to be.

I wish I didn’t believe these things were happening.

Pray hard.

And for heaven’s sake, don’t send your kids to public schools to be “educated” by those wack jobes in the teacher unions!

 

‘Moby-Dick, or The (What?) Whale’

Posted By: leeduigon(patty)Posted On:

Moby Dick by Herman Melville - Free at Loyal Books

Here’s another little chip knocked off our past: a small thing, but if the leftids keep on doing it, these small chips will add up into big ones and we’ll be cut off from our moorings and set adrift on a sea of ignorance.

When Herman Melville’s classic of American literature was published in 1851, its full title was Moby-Dick, or the White Whale. Nineteenth-century publishing was big on subtitles. But here, as you can see in the book cover reproduced above, they’ve changed the subtitle so it’s just or, The Whale.

Now I’m not going to re-read it with a score-sheet to keep track of all details added to or subtracted from the novel for the sake of political correctitude. The one change in the title itself is enough to make my point.

Melville used “the whiteness of the whale” to transform Moby-Dick into something more than an ordinary whale. This whale is different: it’s something that anyone with his head on straight will want to avoid. But Captain Ahab is obsessed with hunting it, and you know how that turned out. The narrator, Ishmael, quotes the Book of Job: “And I only am escaped to tell thee.” Moby-Dick has killed everybody else and sunk the whaling vessel.

So taking away the whiteness of the whale damages the novel–and why would they want to do that?

It’s another little bit of Cancel Culture, of course. What leftids want to do is cut us off from our past: cut us off from all thought but theirs. Like, human life never truly began until these culture commissars came along and invented everything we’re supposed to know from now on. Only what they want us to know. Only what they want us to think. Only what they want us to read.

Don’t ask me why we tolerate this; I don’t know.

We really must make them stop doing this to us.

We’re Driving Our Dogs Crazy, Too

After a year of Mandates and restrictions and fear porn on the nightly nooze, a lot of people have grown a bit paranoid. They get all kinds of weird if they see someone without a mask, and shy away from… well, everybody. Must preserve Social Distancing, you know. And can we double up on those face masks?

Well, guess what! Having made ourselves crazy, now we’re working on our dogs. See the article on Dr. Becker’s veterinary site, https://healthypets.mercola.com/sites/healthypets/archive/2021/03/14/canine-fear-and-anxiety.aspx?ui=a26451ca60f77065e240c7fb026545a41b6fb38badaf00b35456684a9778d9bd&sd=20080201&cid_source=petsnl&cid_medium=email&cid_content=art1HL&cid=20210314Z1&mid=DM823320&rid=1106568324 .

No joke: researchers report “canine fears and anxiety” have built up to a record high, here in America and probably elsewhere, too. Its most common expression is “noise sensitivity,” but “fearfulness toward humans” is high on the list.

Well… duh! Facial expressions are very important to dogs. Dogs read humans’ facial expressions. Now everybody’s wearing a mask.  Dogs are in tune with their owners: our uneasiness, our fearfulness, rubs off on them. If you’re habitually nervous, your dog will be, too. Happy people have happy dogs. Miserable people have miserable dogs.

And there’s also other stuff we do, apart from King COVID’s rule, to mess up our dogs’ minds.

We overbreed them like crazy. Everybody’s gotta have a pedigreed dog. Nobody wants just a dog dog anymore. Overbreeding leads to inborn neurotic behavior in dogs.

And then there’s that fad for keeping the poor dog penned up in a crate every day for hours at a time. If you don’t think that would contribute to an overall affliction of canine fearfulness, you’re just not thinking. But people do that because it’s convenient for them, not the dog.

And all of this, every jot and tittle of it, has been brought to you by Government Science and The Smartest People In The World.

Teaching Children to Hate Themselves

Secret Meeting HD Stock Images | Shutterstock

“We can’t let the school know we’re meeting like this, Number Five..”

This is one of those stories that makes you want to bang your head against the wall.

https://www.city-journal.org/the-miseducation-of-americas-elites

So here are parents in West Los Angeles, as rich as Croesus, spending $40,000 a year to, ahem, “educate” their children. And now they’re singin’ the blues because the commie cockroaches who run the school are teaching the kiddies that America is an evil bad country and all you kids are guilty, capitalism is bad and all you kids are guilty, and everything is racist and it’s all your fault… and for some reason, the kids are coming home depressed.

Really? Holy cow.

On top of all that, if the parents wish to discuss their misgivings, they have to meet secretly… because “they could face profound repercussions.”

Like what? “Stop talkin’ about us or we’ll kick your kid outta our school and he won’t be able to go to Yale.” Yeesh, say it ain’t so!

I can’t even imagine what $40,000 worth of “education” looks like–can you? (Yeahbut, yeahbut! You’ll get into a really great college and be a member of the elite!)

If you spend that kind of money to send your kids to that kind of school, you are not only a pathetic fool wanting in self-respect–no: you are sinning against your own children–and against your country, too, while you’re at it. Where do you think “Arm Iran!” freaks like John Kerry come from? They aren’t born. They’re made!

America is under attack from within, by the Far Left Crazy–and they do not intend for our country to survive. Please, people, get that through your heads! These are not fuzzy-minded, misguided but benign hippies trying to make a better world. If you want to see the kind of world they make, visit North Korea, China, or Cuba. Ask anyone who risked his life to get away.

Yo, West L.A. parents! Stop talkin’ and start doin’! Pull your children out of that school today. Don’t wait for tomorrow. You’re so afraid of these pipsqueak “educators”–stop it!

Take away your money, and they’ll just dry up and blow away.

 

‘Build a Better World–with LSD!’ (2018)

Here’s another one of those stories that came wobbling up to the surface of the news cycle and then went away before anyone could see what came of it.

Build a Better World–with LSD!

How hard, though, is it to believe that our culture-shapers, policy-makers, and big shots are tripping every day on LSD? That would explain where they’re getting their ideas. Chemically-induced psychosis–it’s the only way to fly.

Why Do They Do It?

Ranting And Throwing Papers: An Angry Candidate Runs For Congress : It's All Politics : NPR

Here’s something I cannot, for the life of me, understand. But I do have very smart readers. Maybe some of you can explain it to me.

Why are Democrats so fanatically, maniacally, unhingedly devoted to “transgender”? Why do they push it as if their very lives depended on it? What is it supposed to do for us? How in the world does our country benefit from it? How in the world does this not undermine our culture? To say nothing of its stellar potential for estranging us from God. But then Congressman Nadler says God has no business in the House of Representatives and should just keep out.

Okay, we do a lot of stupid stuff that debases our culture and winds up hurting us. But this is the most stupidest cut of all–demanding that everyone in America deny the reality that there are only two sexes (we got by with that word before they started clubbing us over the head with “gender”) and speak of some fat ugly guy with a wig and a painted face as if he were really and truly a woman. We are expected to spout what we know to be wicked nonsense–not good for our self-respect.

If we rule out demonic possession of a majority in the House of Representatives, and at every other level of government where Democrats congregate, what’s left by way of an explanation? They can’t honestly, truly believe that hormone shots and surgical mutilation actually transforms you into another sex–can they? Because that would make them… insane. And I don’t like the idea of my country being governed by lunatics.

Come on–there has to be a theory that accounts for this. I just can’t think of one myself.

‘The Associated Press vs. the Truth’ (2017)

Posted By: leeduigon(patty)Posted On:

In 2017 our Free & Independent Nooze Media Inc. were trying to solidify the transgender delusion into their style manuals, forbidding…uh, “journalists” from writing anything that might suggest that there were only two genders.

The Associated Press vs. the Truth

Now, in 2021, our Democrat Congress is trying to set up “transgender” as a law, and woe to anyone who speaks the truth! But the AP will always be able to boast, “We led the way!”

Our culture is dying right before our eyes, murdered by leftids. Now that they know how to steal an election, they reckon there’s nothing to hold them back from killing America and replacing it with some kind of golem created by themselves.

God deliver us.

‘University Bans “Inappropriate” Hand Gesture’ (2016)

Achtung! Verboten!

There are thousands of wacko nooze stories out there that never got followed up, leaving us to wonder, “What ever happened with such-and-such?” This is one of them.

University Bans ‘Inappropriate Hand Gestures’

Yes: the Looniversity of Edinburgh–in the interest of “Diversity,” of course!–banned any and all hand gestures that might be interpreted as signs of disagreement… because when you have true Diversity, everyone 100% agrees with everything.

So I wonder if they’re still doing that. Even more, I wonder when the human race is finally going to get tired of being picked on by these idiots and toss them out on their ear.

And it’s more proof that “higher education” is nothing but a waste of time and money.
