Blacks have no right to complain about “the White man” now, period.

Before, during, and after the War Between the States, there were moves and efforts to transport freed slaves and other Blacks “back to Africa.” But most refused, not wanting to return to the shithole where their “bruthas” had captured and sold them. They wanted to stay here, a far better land where their presence only resulted from that slavery, and their freedom from slavery, resulting from the shedding of much White blood. If their descendants don’t like that, they should blame their own ancestors. And then leave. 

(For the record, they probably made the wrong decision all the way around. Liberia was waiting.)

A little hope for the White race — Look at Miss Universe 2024.

A blued-eyed blonde bio-female wins Miss Universe. Ditto for Miss “Zimbabwe.” Maybe there is hope for us.

Where did they go?! — 2020 vs 2024 Presidential vote total proves Election Steal.

What happened to the 10,000,000 votes that gave Joe Biden that famed 81,000,000-vote total? Compared to previous voting patterns, they seemed to appear out of nowhere in 2020 solely to defeat Donald Trump. Yet they didn’t appear to defeat him for years later. Nor did they vote FOR him. And third-party candidates only accounted for less than 2 1/2 million votes.

We all know the answer. 81 million votes my ass.

Kat Timpf on “sexism” and the election: “[O]ne of the things that men and women have in common is that they don’t like women.”

Gutfeld! 06 NOV 2024. 

“I think that sexism is a real thing… I think that one of the things that men and women have in common is that they don’t like women.”

— Kat Timpf.

Immediate discussion of “sexism” starts at 12:00.



THE DAILY FUDD: E277: “Another YouTube ATF sting? — Folding revolver.”

Some readers may remember the “Chinese fuel filters” advertised on YouTube and elsewhere, which were actually firearm sound suppressors. They were clearly portrayed as such, with thinly-veiled labeling. It turns out, of course, that these Chinese imports for being monitored by the ATF’nE, and the number of morons actually got caught buying them. YouTuber “Liberty Doll” actually tried defending one on her channel.

Well, I may have spotted another one. No link unfortunately, but here are a couple of screenshots and basic info on an ad for a small revolver with a range of 10 meters which can supposedly get through airport detection systems. Portrayed as making it useful in self-defense. The video had an AI voice with a slight accent. And information as seen in the picture places the company in Taiwan. I failed to click the link. Somehow I am not regretful of this.

You tell me what this is.

Megyn Kelly: Why Trump, not Harris.

Note: Megyn Kelly has announced she will be speaking (EDIT: see HERE FOR RALLY VIDEO) at President Trump’s rally in Pennsylvania tonight (04 November 2024).

Kelly has demonstrated willingness to criticize President Trump. Her support for him and opposition to Kamala Harris is genuinely reached, not as a sycophant, but as an intelligent person considering the facts.

Below are two snippets from her show today. She makes reference to why abortion should not be an issue in this particular selection. (I posted briefly about this before HERE.)

WHY NO ON HARRIS:


WHY YES ON TRUMP:


File under “Self-oppression” — Why stores have to allow thievery (even outside California).

This intervening guy in the linked video had better be a regular customer or an Asset Protection dude, or he is most certainly fired. The store can’t let a regular employee do this.

Companies fear lawsuits. We can change the law to protect them from such suits. But then employees might overreach, causing public outrage in the law to be changed back… Etc. etc.

No system works. If a store can do enough to stop this sort of thing, they can infringe on people’s rights. If the store is restrained enough to not so infringe, they are open to such a criminal action attempt being successful.

We could try a straight-up, “It all depends on if the guy actually was a thief,” and put liability on the individual. Then there would be all sorts of PC problems. Statistics would eventually show a disproportionate amount of criminal action by certaiN demographics. Plus, there would be questions of “profiling” and “disparate treatment/impact.” 

So, between personal rights and “civil rights,” we are forced to allow flagrant thievery. Don’t you just love our “freedom”?

Megyn Kelly video: Both sides of abortion issue should “accept the half a loaf.”

PRO-CHOICE: Kamala Harris can’t do a federal guarantee. Their half: It’s a state issue — there won’t be a federal ban. 

PRO-LIFE: Won’t get a federal ban. Their half: It’s a state issue — there won’t be a federal guarantee.

More rather far off topic: VIDEO: “Stacy's Side (Parody of "Stacy's Mom" by Fountains of Wayne).”

(HERE for a mashup making “Stacy’s mom,” “Jessie’s girl,” and “Sweet Caroline” out to be the same person. I know there are other take offs on the Fountains of Wayne tune. Maybe one day I’ll listen to them.)

Regarding seeming contradictions between this and the original:

- “I don’t know you well” — Trying to downplay and even cover up her interest in the boy after realizing his interest in her mother (and being disappointed); maybe should be, “don’t know you THAT well”. - Denial of pool — ??? No excuse on that one. - Father “walked out” — Original narrator is confused/deluded, and Stacy is saying, “Yeah, he ‘walked out,’ but FOR WORK!”



I CONSIDER THIS ON TOPIC: “The first Country song [he] ever wrote” — “Let Her Cry,” Darius Rucker.

I like this rendition because it portrays the protagonist as leaving in the end. Most seem to not say that.

From Australia: Excellent exposure of the “Nazi” charges by the Left against Trump’s Madison Square Garden rally.

Excellent exposition by the Sargon guest chick of how the Globalist/Left seeks to equate upholding the value and distinction of American citizenship and legal residency in opposing illegals with Hitler’s actions against certain demographics of his own country. THAT is what they mean when they issue their “Nazi” charges against President Trump and MAGA. Remember that.

Unfortunately, she has to avoid the PC trap by attributing Democrat policies to financial and economic motivation. She cannot, particularly at this moment in the campaign, go into the sociocultural – and that includes racial – motivations. It is, of course, part of the anti-White/Western heritage agenda of the Globalist/Left.



National Cat Day 2024.

Had to say something about it.



Pre-Russia-Russia-Russia FBI criminal investigation of Trump without predication revealed.

Dan Bongino spoke about this a while back. This really is a big deal. This constitutes fundamental “institutional bias” against then-candidate Trump. This discredits anything done by DOJ against President Trump. This will justify President Trump destroying anything – and anyone – associated with that organization which he may wish to destroy. 

Whistleblower: James Comey had FBI ‘honey pot’ spies infiltrate Trump’s 2016 campaign



“Purism” and “freedom” are effectively mutually exclusive.

“Heads Carolina” series — Original, Swindell homage, and duet combo.

One point on the Swindell versions: You gotta have both. You need the base version telling the story application, and then the combo version to max it out and consolidate.

ORIGINAL: 


HOMAGE: 


COMBO: 


File under, “Is anyone else old enough to see the similarity?” — Woman’s love life imitating a certain Country song.

As of now, no one directly commenting seems to recognize the similarity between Brett Cooper’s story below, and the 1997 Tim McGraw song, “Just to see you smile.”

Basic fact about turncoat John Kelly’s Nazi shot at President Trump.

Even if true, the thing about John Kelly’s assertions is that when executives are in private settings, they need to be able to express thoughts without having to worry about total PC. They need to be able to rely on confidentiality. And they need to be able to say things in shorthand and without having to qualify every single statement, and yet still be understood in context. When Kelly claimed he told President Trump that certain things “shouldn’t be said,” he destroyed his own cred. He showed himself incapable of operating outside of PC. Thus, not only does his claim represent a breach of confidentiality and prejudicial concealing of context, it exposes his own ideology as in league with our enemies within.

[EDIT] Pop-culture reference: Think of the Star Trek TOS episode “Space Seed.” Kirk, Bones, and Scotty befuddled Spock by admiring and being against Khan at the same time. Kelly knows this is what Trump was doing.

Off Topic: YouTube did something weird, and more than once.

No politics here. I have a playlist of two versions of “An American Trilogy.” One is the Elvis Presley version from Hawaii in 1973, and the other is Manowar’s soft metal version. For some reason, when I select one from the playlist, it will show the other as the channel. And this has repeated itself. Screenshots below.

How the hell does this sort of thing happen? And as I said, it repeated itself.



Playlist HERE. Terrific song, and I recommend both versions.

No, we don’t need to help other countries for free, because we already do — to wit, textbooks.

In addition to providing security directly and indirectly to those less fortunate, we see that just like with pharmaceuticals, it is the American consumer who has been subsidizing foreigners. We pay more for our stuff so the companies can sell them for less overseas. Those foreign countries should be thanking us.

Not really on topic: Comparing 1966 and 1985 versions of “The Secret Cinema.”

“The Secret Cinema” is a short story film about a woman (“Jane”) secretly being filmed in her life, with episodes being shown to a select audience. It is compared by many to the 1990s “The Truman Show,” but the producers of that movie claim not to have known of the previous work. Who knows?

The original one was produced in 1966, with wider distribution in 1968, and the 1985 version was made as an episode of the NBC anthology series, “Amazing Stories.” Both were made by the same person. I had seen the 1980s version sometime ago, and re-watched it immediately after watching the 1966 version.

MY ASSESSMENT: The original, in black-and-white, definitely has the feel of a low-budget independent work of the time. The ‘80s version was obviously better in terms of production quality. The original storywise was darker in tone, at times almost mystical, and definitely a product of its time. The remake replaced the darkness with campiness, again being a product of its time. The remake’s story flow also seemed more plausible – not actually plausible, just more so than the original (with one huge exception). There’s also is true to the relative time difference, given the increased sophistication of audiences. 

True to its more sophisticated audience, the remake deals with certain specific issues raised in the original. Examples include people thinking that Jane is an on the whole thing, as well as the issue of Jane being paid.

Overall, I prefer the remake. The ‘80s rule.

Facebook “Cats and Guns Community” having fun with Haitian story.

Obviously one of my favorite Facebook groups. A number of memes and photo captions referencing the eating of cats by Haitian migrants can be found there. It is supposed to be non-political, but with a topic like guns, just how non-political can it be.

https://www.facebook.com/groups/CatsNguns/

Caitlin Clark just screwed her own pooch — “Liked” Taylor Swift’s Harris endorsement.

I am trying to be big-picture here. Her “liking” of Swift’s post definitely drops her a couple of notches in my book, if for reasons of perception only. She is still, though, a White woman facing persecution and abuse from Blacks, even if she is supporting the side that encourages it.

Rather far off topic: Mashup: Jessie’s Girl, Stacy’s Mom, and Sweet Caroline are all the same chick! (Plus an alternate narrative).

I love my White Privilege.

Of course, we can’t comment on the reality of this video: “When you’re a member of a disproportionally law-abiding and intelligent race that doesn’t burn down its own communities, this is how things can go for you.”

I’d probably be doxxed for saying that there. But it’s true.


Just a smidgen of Tampon Tim’s race treason.

Yes, if you vote Harris-Walz, you ain’t White. And when the time comes, you’re going to be begging – BEGGING – for mercy.

What is the White people’s word? — Double staNdards iN racial laNguage does iNdeed iNclude coNservatives.

The Hodgetwins are a Black conservative comedy and commentary duo. And yes, they are twin brothers. Obviously, their race is an issue, so it is interesting that they have some sort of promotional ad (Facebook vid HERE) picturing the General Lee in full colors (yes, with the battle flag).

But then there’s this. Responding to Cancellation efforts against a White YouTuber who dares say “nigga” (I rarely encrypt such things), they had this to say:

Nice of them to support her. But notice a key phrase: “our word.” Hmm. They use the word, and they claim a collective possession of it with “Black people.” 

I could play around with this, but the point is obvious: As conservative as these bros may be, they are clearly in league with their racial identity in asserting that THEY may use it, but White people… Yeah.

The lesson here is that no matter how “conservative” a Black person may be, they are still Black. And they often if not universally identify as such as a very high part of their professed position in society. Yet White people, the founding demographic of this country, are effectively prohibited from any sort of positive racial identification. 

I remember the late Herman Cain claiming his identity as “ABC”– “American,” “BLACK,” and “conservative.” And he explicitly said it was in that order. He put his country first, which is good, but his race preceded his ideology. So in the event of a conflict between what he believed to be the best sociopolitical approach to things and the supposed interests of his ethnic group, he would side his ethnic group – the Black minority. What does this say of his likely position in the event of a full-on racial insurrection?

The point: However things shake out, however the situation in America may develop, and whoever with whom you may find yourself in a foxhole, literal or figurative,… Always keep this in mind.

Great anti-trans shot — VIDEO: “ Greg Gutfeld BLASTS Jessica Tarlov For Defending IRRATIONALITY.”


Less than five minutes. Gutfeld makes excellent point comparing trans surgery, which liberals approve, to “conversion therapy,” which liberals oppose. It all goes to agenda, not compassion.

Liberals really have embraced their crazies, while conservatives reject their crazies.

Aussie TV babes give better perspective to Walz’s Stolen Valor AND comparison to Vance’s combat record.

(3:18-7:21 in video). 

These ladies, especially Kosha Gada, put the issue of Walz’s Stolen Valor into a somewhat more practical perspective than I’ve seen elsewhere. This is especially true in how they counter Dems’ attempts to characterize Vance’s own combat record to mitigate Walz’s counterfactual claimsToo many Trump supporting personalities here are Teabraining the matter, overreaching and mischaracterizing the issue, and doing more harm than good. I try not to jump too hard on technical errors or overgeneralizations, but people shouldn’t throw around terms and concepts they don’t understand.

Finally, a conservative gets the Harris “unburdened” line.

(Apparently Blogspot is changing things, so I need an app or something to post pictures and embed videos. I will figure it out.)

Kamala Harris’ “unburdened by what has been” line has been widely labeled as a word salad. Perhaps it is, but it does have a meaning – a very Marxist meaning. It is about changing our past, which means our heritage. 

I have resisted explaining this to people, given the tiring nature of having to deal with TeabraineryPerhaps it’s ironic that it’s Charlie Kirk of TPUSA putting this out.

No, we may not have all that much in common.

COMMENT: The flaw in Kennedy’s statement about how we have so much in common is that the Left genuinely doesn’t ideologically share those concerns. They want our children to be worse off than us, by virtue of wanting the decline of Western civilization. Whether it’s proactively seeking that outcome for their own children, or simply being ambivalent about it insubordination to their ideology, it simply is not a concern we equally share.

The discussion really focuses mostly on Kat Timph’s pregnancy, but does mention the adoration of Kamala Harris as being strictly partisan.

Off topic: VIDEO: “Sesame Street: Billy Joel And Marlee Matlin Sing Just The Way You Are.”

1. Maybe because Marlee Matlin is deaf, captioning at one point having Oscar as “[INAUDIBLE]” seems oddly funny.

2. I wonder if she originated the “dark-frame glasses make a girl really hot” phenomenon. 


Yep. Hot in the specs.

ANOTHER NOT PRECISELY ON TOPIC, YET… Ellie Goulding’s “Burn” — Original versus Postmodern Jukebox cover.

will say right off that I definitely prefer the PMJ cover.

Sara Neimeitz (center lead in PMJ version) is something of a fave of mine. She was also in the PMJ cover of Journey’s “Don’t Stop Believin’.” She actually got her start at age 4, when she got a chance to sing with BJ Thomas on stage. She actually knew the words to “Hooked on a Feeling.” Seventeen years later they reunited to record the song as a duet, and the year later they performed it on the Opry. (A live performance here.)

In defense of future VP Vance: Even Purina takes shots at “cat ladies.”

The “crazy cat lady” trope goes back generations. We all know what it means, and we all accept it. The “childless” adaptation was simply making his point.


This Purina “We are Cat People” commercial — the one I have embedded on this page on the right hand panel — uses the phrase (with “ crazy”  — which you would think would be even more offensive than “childless”) repeatedly (go to 1:12 point). It’s targeted at people who have cats. And I’m sure a few of those people fit the profile Vance laid out. The video is still up after 12 years, so the company doesn’t seem to have received many complaints.

“Quantity has a quality all its own.” Hence 75 million patriotic Americans each with an official standard baseline - featureless - fighting rifle is indeed a force that a regular military with full auto and such would find a genuine threat. 2A does have that collective factor as well.

President Trump’s 2024 RNC acceptance speech, with note to critics.

Posted on complete video: To critics: When you take a round to the head for the cause and come within millimeters of being killed by an assassin, you get to take as long as you want with your acceptance speech. If you wish to depart from the traditional style, and basically give the speech you were prevented from giving, you get to do that. 

And particularly to those critics who have helped create the environment among his opponents that led to the assassination attempt, you have less than no right to complain. Just STFU.

COMPLETE SPEECH:


DISCUSSION OF ASSASSINATION ATTEMPT:


Simple slam-dunk debunking of “Trump staged assassination attempt” conspiracy theory (but with lesson for both sides).

Obvious problem with the whole concept is that the Secret Service really actually was around there – no matter how badly they did. To stage something like that in the presence of a Deep State entity like that would be impossible. They would never go along with it.

That said, it should serve to show people who have traditionally been “conspiracy theorists” how their approach is a two-edged sword. Blanket cynicism is foolish.
