Europe is Our (Insert Female Pejorative Here)

Written By : Warner Todd Huston

**And now a word from my inner swaggerer…

Europe is a chick’s name. That’s right, you heard me. The word Europa from which Europe is derived is of feminine gender in origin. In Greek mythology Europa was a Phoenician princess abducted by Zeus. Zeus disguised himself as a bull to pull off the caper.

So, what do we have? Let’s review: Europe is a defenseless but pretty chick fooled by a bunch of bull and ravaged by a God.

Yep. Sounds about right.

Now what about America? How chikified is our name? Well, not much.

As it happens America is named after Amerigo Vespucci, a cartographer and explorer from the mid 1400s who was one of the first westerners to map the coast of the Americas. He was a man, baby.

A man’s man, an explorer, a man of means (well, early in his life, anyway), a sailor. A real tough guy. And even if that isn’t true, at least a person with a swinging anchor and some ballast which is more than we can say for the weeping, cringing Europa.

And since the naming, our two continents have certainly lived up to the theme. Europe, constantly ravaged, always weeping, forever moaning about being nice to folks, and never strong enough to stand on its own for long has been as weak and feckless as can be imagined.

On the other hand America has been the jewel of the world. America was born of the woman but strode forward in confident, self-possessed strides leaving mommy behind sniffling and waving her handkerchief to her successful son and warning him not to forget to write or at least leave a text message. America has spawned riches uncountable with its toils and with the United States at its head has become the world’s father and policeman. It’s a manly nation to say the least.

So, what’s in a name, William old sod? Nothing less than the expression of character (or weakness thereof). We Americans stand astride the world in manliness while Europe swoons by our side in supplication… and nagging, nagging, nagging like the gnarled old hag she has become. Even Zeus would be tired of her by now.

Yep. Europe is our bi_ _h.

Take that you Euroweenies!

So, go on. Call me a cowboy. But whose twirling rope are you Euroweenies gonna reach for when you’ve let the Islamofascists take over your lands? Whose six-shooters will come in handy when the Chinese are blowing you away? Which man in the white hat are ya gonna call on when you suddenly find yourself surrounded by hostiles on all sides? If’n yer lucky, pardner, we might jess lope on by and help ya out. Ya never know. Give us a whistle and see.

… OK, I feel better. And now back to the news.

So? It’s a female name?

Last time I checked, females were considered equal to males.

Could someone go out and buy Huron a sense of humor please?

Funny when you think about it. Europa is a woman’s name but was made into Europe, a masculine name. Amerigo was a man’s name but it was feminized into America.

The whole argument can sort of be reversed on that level, although the temperament and policies of the continents wouldn’t fit so well.

On most well run forums, this admission would be grounds for a very quick banning. But this disgusting human being, who recently advocated the Fort Hood murders and stated that the killer should be pardoned, is still here. That’s a sad comentary on the state of this forum.

Huron,
Fascism is a manifestation of leftist ideology carried out to one of its natural ends…You have more fascist tendencies than any of the posters or authors here.

You should probably worry more about the actual fascists in the White House. What Obama did with GM and Chrysler is textbook fascism, look it up.

Wrong fascism is a left wing idealogy, that was in direct COMPETION with communism. That’s why it had to destroy ‘the left.’ Fascism, is a political ideology that seeks to combine radical and authoritarian nationalism with a corporatist economic system.

Realpolitik, your ignorance is showing…please recuse yourself from further conversation.

A system of government marked by centralization of authority under a dictator, See Obama’s consolidation of power under the executive branch through non congressional approved appointees or czars; stringent socioeconomic controls, See Tarp, nationalization of auto, medical, and financial sectors of the economy -also note the tyranny of ‘what’s best for you shall be made law’ like smoking bans, transfat bans, etc; suppression of the opposition through terror and censorship, see Obama’s attacks on free speech critical of him and his administration; and typically a policy of belligerent nationalism and racism. see the apology tour, affirmative action, vilification of gun grabbin’, bible holdin’ conservatives.

Actually, one of the tenets of fascism, and especially national socialism, was the destruction of competing socialist doctrines. This was, and still is, common to the various socialist ideologies. Anybody who knows anything about the history of the various breeds of socialism knows that they never got along. They all wanted desparately to be THE SOCIALISM in charge, and the respective idealogues of the various socialist branches typically hated one another. Fascism (in the case of Germany, nationalist socialism) was most definitely socialism, with the idea that different races and nationalities had different takes on the same things. Hence, a “German science” and a “German morality” that was seen as separate from a “Russian science” or a “British morality”. The inclusion of nationalist ideology does not render a socialist doctrine as right wing and non-socialist. The modern leftist is typically convinced of this because other branches of socialism were strongly anti-nationalist, most notably Marxism. Marxism and national socialism did not get along on many levels, with one of the biggest differences being views on the ComIntern vs. National Socialism.

Marxist doctrine is now widely taught in all but name across various subjects in American and European unicversities and public schools. In history classes the Marxist model of class warfare is the filter by which historical events are explained, without Marx ever actually being mentioned. In PoliSci classes the idea that nations will ultimately disappear for a single world government is often taught as desireable, if not inevitable. That is Marxism. In either case, when National Socialism is described as not being Leftist or socialist, that is Marxism showing its old bigotries. It’s pathetic to see the modern leftists spouting Marxist ideolgy without even realizing it.

Hardly. I think the irony of you being too much of Euroweenie to type out the word bitch is hilarious!
Mike_M

“Fascism, is a political ideology that seeks to combine radical and authoritarian nationalism with a corporatist economic system.”

By the time Stalin did away with the soviets and the idea of actual public ownership of capital, the USSR and Nazi Germany were not all that different. So much so that they formed a profitable alliance right up until the day Barbarossa launched.

The main difference being Hitler knew it was more effecient to co-opt business and industry rather than try to run them completely through the central government. The Nazis also hated the German communists because they were largely foreign agents of anarchy in post-WWI Germany. The only thing right-wing about the Nazis was that they were “conservative” in their pre-Chancellor Hitler desire to see the return of the Hohenzollern monarchy that fled after WWI. This obviously has absolutely no relation to modern American conservative politics (opposite if anything since conservatives are opposed to monachy).

Of course, this all requires knowledge of history and the ability to see past simple labels. Something our resident trolls are sorely lacking in.

Um… how does not wanting to use curse words make me like a Euroweenie? Not wanting to use curse words is a Christian sort of thing to do and the LAST thing Euroweenies ever want to do is act like a Christian!
Tom_pinko_Delay

Except everyone knows what curse word you are using, Warner, when you write (insert female pejorative) and b_ _ch.

That you think the suggestion of the word bitch (when everyone knows you mean it) is less offensive that actual word bitch makes you a Euroweenie.

Christians are exhorted not to use curse words, it is true, but “bitch” is not a curse word. It (and every other sexually related word) is but being crude.

And how exactly, never-show is a crude word different than a curse word? I mean the shit is a curse word and it’s crude. So too is bitch, fuck, and asshole. How are they different? Your argument makes about as much sense as tits on a boar.
