Racist Trees to Be Removed in Palm Springs

Posted on by Dave Blount

Racist trees will not be tolerated by the bureauweenies running Palm Springs, California, who righteously proclaim that as soon as they find the money to do it, they will remove a row of tamarisk trees that serve as a barrier between the Tahquitz Creek Golf Course and a historically black neighborhood: Many longtime residents of […]

 

Moonbat Denounces Centrist Privilege

Posted on by Dave Blount

White privilege has not yet been eradicated and already Chapman University political science student Matthew Q. Joy has discovered another menace: centrist privilege. Barack Obama is a holder of centrist privilege, because “society lauded him a liberal icon” even though he failed to impose socialized medicine. Hillary Clinton is guilty too, because she proposed a […]

 

Escalating the War on Christmas at the University of Minnesota

Posted on by Dave Blount

Everything that reminds progressives of Christmas must be suppressed, even wrapped packages: An academic department at the University of Minnesota declared that “bows/wrapped gifts” are “not appropriate for gatherings and displays at this time of year.” According a copy of the guidelines obtained by Campus Reform, UMN’s College of Food, Agricultural, and Natural Resource Sciences […]

 

Slate Spews Yuletide Hatred at Wholesome Hallmark Channel

Posted on by Dave Blount

Providing a haven where the culture of America’s core population can continue to persist has earned the Hallmark Channel an impressive endorsement; its very existence enrages Slate — especially during the Christmas season: In 2017, the network is premiering 21 original Christmas movies (up from 20 last year)—42 hours of sugary, sexist, preposterously plotted, plot […]

 

Infantilization of College Students Reaches Care Bears Level

Posted on by Dave Blount

College used to be an unnatural extension of adolescence. It has become an extension of nursery school. A dorm for honors students at the University of Massachusetts–Amherst actually features Care Bears: “Feeling grumpy or stressed? Let the Care Bears help!” the display states above a large, hand-drawn rainbow adorned with bit[s] of advice for students. […]

 

Possible 100%+ Marginal Tax Rate Under Senate Bill

Posted on by Dave Blount

At some point, taxation becomes slavery. We may disagree about where that point is, but everyone should at least be able to agree that when 100% of the wealth you generate is confiscated by the government, you are a slave: Some high-income business owners could face marginal tax rates exceeding 100% under the Senate’s tax […]

 

Moonbat Sexually Harasses Robots

Posted on by Dave Blount

An enraged moonbat at Quartz at Work fumes that robots are not being programmed to “fight the patriarchy”: I ran an experiment in which I sexually harassed Apple’s Siri, Amazon’s Alexa, Microsoft’s Cortana, and Google’s Google Home to document how these digital personal servants—whose names and voices are already feminized—peddle stereotypes of female subservience, putting […]

 

California Considers Banning Normal Vehicles

Posted on by Dave Blount

How wacky and repressive can a state become and remain integrated with the rest of the Union? We may find out from California: California Assemblymember Phil Ting, a Democrat who is chairman of the chamber’s budget committee, said he plans to introduce a bill that, starting in 2040, would allow the state’s motor vehicles department […]

 

Bike Lanes: Massive Fail

Posted on by Dave Blount

Progressives love bicycles because they are outmoded and inefficient, just like windmills, and because they are the primary means of transportation in communist hellholes like Cuba. Consequently, their heavy-handed urban planning often inflicts bike lanes at the expense of normal traffic. As with all liberal coercion, the result has been unforeseen (but not unforeseeable) consequences […]

 

Why You Must Not Call Snowflakes Snowflakes

Posted on by Dave Blount

Don’t call snowflakes snowflakes. You might prove that they are snowflakes by damaging their fragile mental health: The “snowflake generation” is a disparaging term now commonly used to refer to young people, who are perceived to be over-sensitive and intolerant of disagreement. But research by insurance firm Aviva found that 72 per cent of 16-24 […]

 

Leftist Professors: Reporting on the Ideological Excesses of Leftist Professors Is “Violence”

Posted on by Dave Blount

Keeping your Newspeak Dictionary up to date involves more than striking out words that the Thought Police have arbitrarily declared to be offensive. Other words have their definition changed. For example, the word “violence” can now be defined as “that which must be suppressed.” For example, according to the Thought Police, telling the public about […]

 

Democrats Posture Nauseatingly as They Side With Terrorists Against Israeli Citizens

Posted on by Dave Blount

Even liberal Alan Dershowitz has had enough of Democrats posturing self-righteously as they side with Muslims in their terrorist war of extermination against civilization’s lonely outpost in the Middle East: Palestinian terrorist leaders often use teenagers to commit acts of terror because they know the Israeli legal system treats children more leniently than adults. Now […]

 

Sports Illustrated Grants Award to Colin Kaepernick for Disrespecting National Anthem

Posted on by Dave Blount

Sports Illustrated has followed GQ down the rabbit hole of radical leftism by granting an award to the bitterly anti-American former football player who set in motion the ongoing collapse of the NFL, Colin Kaepernick: The [washed-up, unsigned] quarterback has received the 2017 Sports Illustrated Muhammad Ali Legacy Award, an honor awarded annually to athletes […]

 

Central America Could Follow Venezuela Down the Drain

Posted on by Dave Blount

The cancer metastasized from Cuba to Venezuela. From there it spreads further. Left-wing candidate Salvador Nasralla, who apparently lost the November 26 presidential election in Honduras to center-right incumbent Juan Orlando Hernández, is belligerently contesting the results. In the USA, they quack forlornly about Russian collusion. Here’s how leftists take defeat in Honduras: When the […]

 

Kate Steinle Denied Justice

Posted on by Dave Blount

Young Kate Steinle was denied the protection promised by government when she was shot in front of an audience by illegal alien Jose Ines Garcia Zarate. Now she has been denied justice: Jurors Thursday afternoon acquitted the illegal immigrant accused of killing Kate Steinle as she walked with her father on a crowded San Francisco […]
