Silly me, I thought it was iran and Russia that were funding "Kill the Jews" rallies. Leadership from progressive Americans certainly explains the same slogans, in perfect English, appearing worldwide. Who needs foreign influence when we're so ready to hang ourselves with our own rope!
Anything with the word People in it is Marxist, especially if it includes Democratic: People's Forum, People's Republic of China, Democratic People's Republic of Korea. On the bright side, Singham and Evans have no children because they are too busy activisming. Emperor Xi thanks them, Biden, and Newsom for serving as such obedient court eunuchs. Keep up the naming and shaming, FP.
Saw a headline yesterday about a Maryland High School that hosts a Pro-Palestine rally and I couldn’t bring myself to read the article, because I really didn’t want to find out that I probably know the high school.
Last year my mother, who works for MCPS got an email (she was visiting me and I saw the email as she opened it) and it told all employees that it was policy NOT to tell parents if their teenager starts using a new gender identity at school. And she was like, “I got to get outta here.” Thankfully, she is retiring and moving to Texas with me!
I grew up with a lot of kids from Montgomery County at summer camp. All played soccer. It must be like where I grew up, Cherry Hill, NJ - a bastion of progressive loons.
Oh yes I was a soccer player too! We made fun of the NJ kids we played against, sorry!
But indeed, it is heavily progressive-liberal.
My poor grandfather, who is very conservative, was concerned about moving to Austin, Texas because he heard that Austin is a “blue island” in a sea of red. And I was like, “Papa! I grew up in MOCO! (as we called it then) Austin’s waaaayyy more balanced that MoCo! I’ll be fine.” Made me laugh.
I mean honestly it’s just tyranny of majority. They’re the most population dense and I would imagine other states with this issue have same reason 🤷🏽♀️
But don’t worry. Puppy’s Pride parade is being read in schools across MoCo 💪🏽💪🏽🤦🏽♀️
Another MOCO refugee here. Even when growing up, the progressives were beginning to go far left with the governance, including the schools. None in my family live there anymore, and few of my childhood friends as well. That said, it was still a nice place to grow up (Montgomery Village) and I wouldn't trade it with any place in the world for that. But I would not choose to raise children there today.
There is no “we” here. The FBI had it right in The first place. Parasites like these hypocrites need to go.
This guy is a great example of an immigrant failure story. Sure he made millions, but he never assimilated into our culture. Someone else surely would have built the company he did. I’d rather it would have been a patriot.
Oh, he assimilated into our culture, the culture of the Left, which is oppressive and power-driven. He felt a certain kinship. His wife isn't an airhead, she is evil.
Always the case with these people. Talk trash about the US and the west in general, glorify communist countries and dictatorships, all while taking full advantage of the opportunities here. He would not have made his millions anywhere else. Certainly not in the people’s republic. Seeing similar with all the campus clown shows lately. Righteous fists waving in the air, tearing down posters, all while hiding behind their professors and the safety of these ridiculous infantilizing institutions.
I have a better idea. Freeze all their US based assets. If they don’t believe in the country that they leveraged to create all their wealth then I guess they don’t need us. Let them try to recreate it in the CCP.
AL, speaking about 'hanging ourselves with our own rope' whatever has happened to the grandfather of American progressives - the Communist Party USA? Out of nowhere come the usurpers The People's Forum and steals the spotlight along with all the funding, with nary a headline about those good old fashioned Communists. They probably don't even qualify for FBI surveillance anymore.
It appears that even in the socialist world of global domination there's competition. Who knew?
The focus on communists ended on Sept 11/2001, when the US government realized that it had been fighting the wrong enemy. In trying to fight the Russian communists in Afghanistan, they funded Islamic fundamentalists.
Now, however, the communist threat is again significant, except that it's already in all our institutions - and it has made friends with Islamic fundies. Fun times. Parents need to wake up and start undoing the indoctrination their kids are getting from schools.
Actually not as clear you think. The captions sometimes aren’t even his words. He clearly didn’t say “We are WHITE”, he said “We are RIGHT” and he never says f*gg*t. I can’t make out what he says there. Some of it may not be English.
He’s angry because people in America are demonstrating in support of Hamas, who just wantonly raped and massacred civilians, including women, children and infants because they are Jewish. There really is no other explanation for beheading a child or infant than for what they are.
Do you really think you understand the Israeli-Palestinian conflict?
All the comments on that video reveal how easy it is to manipulate people who know almost nothing about a situation with a bit of propaganda.
So LOL all you want. When you stop laughing maybe you’ll take some time to understand what’s happening and realize that Israel is not committing genocide. It is actually quite the reverse. Islamists have expelled Jews from almost the entire Middle East and North Africa, except for Israel. They simply will not tolerate Jewish dominion over one inch of the region. Palestinians, Arabs in a very small part of the ME, are pawns caught in the middle. The Arabs have never accepted any division of the region and have been waging a war since 1948 to eliminate the Jews, or at least make them subjects (dhimmis) under their rule. All the surrounding Arab countries intentionally keep the Palestinians stateless (as refugees) to continue the war against Israel.
The Jews have been defending themselves from a genocide since re-establishing a state in their ancestral homeland. Israel (Zion) was established to defend against a nearly successful genocide by the Nazis, which had origins going back long before the Nazis.
The massacre on Oct 7 was an unambiguous continuation of an ongoing Islamist genocide (a Jihad) of not only Jews, but also the Judeo-Christian West (remember 9/11?).
Perhaps one day you will be able to wrap your head around why Jews in America are so touchy about Americans who demonstrate in support of the butchers who are waging a genocide against them.
Ironic, isn’t it? But not something to laugh about.
Lol!! Nope. He said what he said. Don't need captions. Was speaking English. Crystal clear.
Nah. People are demonstrating in support of the Palestinian people. Different than Hamas. Your conflation is gross.
Go grab your buddies and tell Netanyahu to stop paying Hamas to commit terrorism against his own people so he can ensure there will be no Palestinian freedom/land and occupation/subjugation can continue indefinitely.
Good reporting. Scary. In 2017 neo Nazis chanted ‘Jews will not replace us.’ The left was outraged, and rightly so. Now, a mere six years later, the fringe left is chanting ‘gas the Jews.’ This time: It’s all good. Ludicrous and grotesque hypocrisy. I’m not surprised these pro-Hamas fascists are being supported by wealthy pseudo marxists. What is wrong with these imbeciles?
You forgot one big difference - the nuts who marched in Charlottesville had no power, no money and no connections to the establishment. And were widely ridiculed and reviled. These lunatics are wealthy, well connected and well supported by the Democrat Party and their media and Hollywood stooges who laud them. The American left is a dagger pointed at the heart of America.
Charlottesville was supposed to be a gathering of the nationwide, even worldwide far right. They put out a Nazi APB (ANB?) and one group of a few hundred jackasses was all they could get. What the far left is doing now is orders of magnitude bigger.
Anytime I mention Jew hatred on the right, people point to Charlottesville. That was so 2017... and that's the only thing people can point to... even the media cites this over and over again. Proving your point.
And while the pathetic wannabe brownshirts who marched in VA didn't call for murder and genocide, these monsters exult in it. Sort of like how it was noted that even the Nazis tried to cover up their monstrous crimes, while Hamas published them to the world and their drooling acolytes exult in them.
And yet, despite Hamas’ own livestreaming their terrorism, I still encounter – daily – commenters in MSM, alleging that Israel was “behind“ the terrorism, and that it was carried out by the IDF. It’s just so hard to live in an atmosphere where the most obvious lies seem to be given credence. The world seems to have turned into an all encompassing bath of crazy.
And during his infamous Charlottesville press conference, Trump twice 'condemned the white supremacists totally' (a strong condemnation that is still unreported by the liars in our media).
How many political leaders on the left have been as blunt in condemning today's Hamas rioters?
Our problem isn’t the few pathetic white supremacists that showed up in Charlottesville. Our problem is the thousands of brainwashed leftist punks on college campuses calling for the death of Jews.
The chant started as "you will not replace us," i.e. you will not replace white men. They had every right to chant that. However, as with all things, it went a bit too far, and made a real and present concern appear "extreme" and "racist," even though right before our eyes, white men are erased as much as possible. If I see one more ad with a white woman married to a black man...not to say there's anything wrong with that -- except for the fact that I haven't seen a white man coupled with a white woman in advertising in a long time.
Ever wonder why we don't see in those ads much white man with black women, or white woman with Asian man either? Their racial ideology has some very specific codings that reflect how very racist they really are.
That said, let's not sugarcoat the Charlottesville bunch. Those clowns there were racist white supremacists.
I was watching a lot of Proud Boys stuff leading up to the march. The discussion was focused on resisting anti-white propaganda. Thats' not "white supremacist." And frankly, the term "white supremacist" is also propaganda.
They think they are always in the morally right position no matter what their stance. It’s more than hypocrisy, it’s…well hell I don’t know the right word for it, but it’s infuriating that’s for sure. Quick, someone invent a word for the infuriating hypocrisy of a person with the intellect of a teenage and the emotional maturity of a two-year old who always sincerely believe they are right no matter what.
Sadly, they're no longer the "fringe" left. They're now mainstream. They're liberals with convictions. The left always ends up eating its own, as so many liberals are finally learning.
There's no question that Jews are being attacked from the right and the left now. Unfortunately, there is little Jews can do stop either source of hatred, given our Constitution. If American Nazis can march through any town they want, just like guys with tiki torches in Charlottesville, and students at Harvard or Columbia have every right to attack Israel verbally or in demonstrations, the only recourse for Jews is to do their best to out-argue antisemites on either side, since there is no way at all to suppress them. I'm not hopeful that out-arguing haters of Jews will be possible. I think that American Jews will now simply have to live with unprecedented levels of hostility for the duration. Of course they will "fight back," as The Free Press constantly does. But we've simply entered a new negative phase of American history where Jews are concerned. When Trump broke all norms with his open race-baiting and congratulations to "fine people" shouting "Jews will not replace us," he opened floodgates of ancient Klan-style hatred on the right, just like ancient racism against blacks. There's now no way to censor such hatred away, since it is part and parcel of MAGA. And no matter how much rich Jewish donors may fume, they are powerless to change fifty years of political correctness focused on "oppressors" and "oppressed" in all areas, including Israel. The faculty at Harvard is much more powerful than its donors, and they aren't budging. After decades of hugely successful assimilation leading to most Americans not knowing or caring who is Jewish and who is not--a healthy state of affairs--we're now back to a world before assimilation in which thugs on the right and intellectuals on the left are both focused on identifying and harassing Jews with Constitutionally protected speech and marches. Hard to believe the halcyon days of assimilation are likely to return soon, if ever.
I'm an "idiot" just like Gary Cohn of Goldman Sachs who immediately resigned from Trump's staff after he, like me, "misinterpreted" Trump's comments. Amazing how many actually quite brilliant people, like Cohn, "misinterpreted" your hero's comments the way I did.
Not my hero. But I think it’s stupid when the press plays the misquote game. Those that are incapable of sorting it out when it happens are not worth listening to.
This media lie was not that. It was so obvious that even casual observers who watched the entire statement were not fooled. It’s a big Dem lie invented by the media and I will give no credence to anyone foolish enough to repeat it.
There's not a single lie in my comments. You're the one who's trying to deceive people for Trump with the lie that his comments on Charlottesville were just fine and were only criticized because the hated MSM somehow distorted them. Ask Gary Cohn, on the of most successful Jews in America, how "distorted" they were. Do you always call those who disagree with you uneducated "agitators." I've got a PhD; that's a start.
I never voted for Trump. But at least I educated myself about him.
it must be said you are repeating lies and falsehoods on Trump. Do yourself and the rest of us a favor and maybe stop watching CNN and MSNBC and actually get yourself better informed. You’re making yourself look like a useful fool. He said “Fine people”, yes, bu he is repeatedly misquoted by the media and obviously perpetuated by people like you. It’s grotesque. Do the decent thing and check out what he actually said.
Then start by reading about Trump moving the capital of Israel to Jerusalem and then go on to educate yourself on the Abraham Accords. If Trump were on the left he’d have a Nobel Peace Prize by now with the Accords.
Next read up on how amongst many other good things, Trump finally got Historically Black Schools and Colleges (HBSC) funded. After years of them begging Democrats who refused to do it. Even Obama refused because he was so deep in the pocket of the teacher’s unions. And ask about the First Step program he signed into law to help largely African Americans in prison.
Nonsense. The incontrovertible proof that CNN, MSNBC, and I have this right, and you have it dead wrong is the indisputable fact that the most prominent Jewish member of Trump's government when he made this grotesque statement, Gary Cohn of Goldman Sachs, immediately felt compelled as a Jew to totally resign and distance himself from Trump. How do you explain Cohn's "mistake" from your erroneous point of view? One of the sleazy things about Trump is the way he tries to have it both ways. On the one hand, he totally pandered to Jews with both the Jerusalem move and the Abraham Accords. On the other he inspired antisemitic haters with his weasel words (remember how he pretended never to have heard of David Duke when journalists tried to corner him about Duke; plausible deniability is Trump's middle name) and constant race-baiting. Guess you missed the memo about how the American Nazi mass murderer of Jews in Pittsburgh was a huge Trump fan. There was visual proof on your hated CNN and MSNBC about that too. Again, I believed my eyes and ears. It's understandably given how Trump was Shel Adelson's dream of an American presidential supporter of Likud Israel that you would want to see him in the best light possible, though if you admire him so much, why didn't you vote for him? Nonetheless, Trump is the most fascistic political figure in American history, one who calls his enemies "vermin" to be eliminated, exactly as Hitler described Jews, and the greatest danger to American democracy in our history, openly discussing how he wants to ditch our Constitution and weaponize the Justice Department to go after his enemies, exactly as Hitler did in Germany. I can understand how uneducated people who've been screwed over economically by globalization now see Trump as their vehicle for revenge, exactly as working-class Germans had been screwed over themselves and wanted vengeance against "elites" through Hitler. But I can't understand at all how any educated person who loves our Constitutional democracy could view Trump with anything but fear and loathing. If he is elected, this country is finished.
It's Trump's fans who are deranged. But you said you never voted for him, That makes you even odder to be defending him as you do. He did a lot for Shel Adelson and Bibi, no question, and became Likud's "Messiah." Whether or not that will look to history like a good thing for Israel remains to be seen, especially now.
What a bunch of blather. And your love of Gary Cohn is strange. Talk about crazy hero worship. If what you just wrote us all you have you might as well leave this Substack and never look back. We don’t take kindly to fools here.
It's always amusing to rile up guys like you, just as it's fun when the law makes your Dear Leader red in the face as he let's loose with his own hapless stream of invective. H.L. Mencken used to enjoy making guys like you mad, too. He called it "stirring up the animals."
Douchebags like you are a dime a dozen. I just love wasting your time responding to me. Hopefully it’s saving countless others from having to listen to you.
I hesitate to comment here because I don't want to engage in argument. Please take this from a political independent who is not a trump fan, but who think his comments were indeed misrepresented regarding the Charlottesville protest.
The protests in C'ville were over the civil war monuments being torn down in that community. People in that part of the country are proud of their civil war history, and didn't want mob rule to determine which statues or monuments should be removed with no vote from the community. (I personally found that behavior reminiscent of Mao's China and the red guards tearing down the "four olds", and it made me very uncomfortable, although I don't live in Virginia anymore.) In addition to those legitimate protesters, there were the crazies chanting the anti-Semitic phrases you referenced. There were also antifa rioters who came to cause trouble and stir people up into violent clashes.
Back to trump's "fine people" statement. It was edited. As soon as he said there were fine people on both sides, he continued and said "And I'm not talking about the neo nazis or the white nationalists, because they should condemned totally." You can find those unedited clips online - I easily found a few of them searching on Rumble.com. (Also notable is that trump has a Jewish son in law and Jewish grandchildren who he adores, which doesn't add up with supporting anti-Semites.)
My perspective is this: If I can believe that the majority of the George Floyd protesters were "fine people" out to support black Americans who were hurting at the time, and there were also antifa troublemakers out there burning down buildings and being very violent, then why can't I believe that the majority of the people in Charlottesville were there exercising their 1st amendment rights and standing against tearing down their community's monuments to history, and there were also anti-semites and antifa present who said horrible things and instigated violence? I understand that both can be true, because I understand the concept of nuance.
This "fine people" phrase was been unfairly edited and repeated ad nauseam by the press, and it showed me personally that the press were lying to me about this particular event. As the months went on, I've found more and more instances where the press misled me, and yes, lied to me. I don't want the press to tell me what to think. I want them to tell me what happened and let me draw my own conclusions. That's why I've shifted to independent media sources and tuned out the mainstream press.
hypocrisy abounds: pink peace symbols, but supporting Hamas' slaughter; protesting Israeli "genocide" but being perfectly fine with China's systematic genocide of Uyghur Muslims; believing Venezuela is the one true democracy on earth. Perfect example of how harmful luxury beliefs are, and how only the rich can hold them
For the enemies of Western civilization, the only thing better than a useful idiot is an obscenely wealthy useful idiot. Claiming to be "Marxists" while reveling in the accumulation of capital in their own grubby little hands? Not exactly the brightest lights, these two.
I wonder where Singham parked his Marxism when he made enough profit over twenty years to sell a company for close to eight hundred million $. In a safe somewhere?
And I'm curious how his employees at The People's Forum defend and justify how all that money was made - the money they're living on right now.
It's OK to be filthy rich so long as you periodically don the hairshirt in public and mutter a few vacuous words about "compassion" along some sort of self-loathing before climbing back into your limousine and being handed a glass of Crystal. "Here's to the little people who made it all happen!"
Watching and listening to the Pro Israel March today brought me to tears. Beautiful music. It was so full of light, love, faith, courage and of course heartbreak. Quite the contrast to the hate fueled rage and darkness of pro Palestine marches. I stand with Israel!
Does anyone else here remember the right-of-center rallies in Washtingon and elsewhere that had no violence and left no trash? There were many of them. Jan-6 was clearly an outlier. For years, until then, the left had tried to get pro-Trump rallies to lead to violence to no avail.
I will go to my grave believing that much of the violence on January 6th was carried out by FBI funded actors who were told to make it 'look bad' that day.
For example, there was zero reason anyone that day needed to scale the walls to get into the capital. But it made for powerful theater, which is why some people did it.
Funny how of all the cases they've prosecuted regarding January 6th, I've never seen anyone officially accused of scaling the walls outside the capital. Weird, huh?
You beat me to the punch, I was about the write the very same thing.
The "forbidden footage" which the DoJ refuses to allow to be viewed by the public shows totally peaceful and unarmed Trump supporters walking through the People's Building (after having been motioned in by capital police) and damaging nothing. But this conflicts with the wall-scaling, window-smashing image by FBI and ANTIFA tools which they want to stand as the official narrative. And it has worked flawlessly.
None of this is surprising. The project of destroying Western civilization is shared by a number of groups. Of course those groups are going to work together to whatever extent they are able to manage.
It's the only thing that stands in the way of their authoritarian "utopia."
Marxists (both the Woke American ones and the Chinese Maoist ones) want to destroy Western civilization because, with its messy ideas of freedom, it's a constant threat to their ability to impose the "perfect" communist ideology. No West=no freedom for people to dream about or to flee to.
Islamists want to destroy Western civilization so they can fulfill their dream of forcing the whole world to convert to Islam.
Excellent. And I would add the globalists detest America because it is the one nation that stands in opposition to their one world view and thirst for control. Degrade and destabilize America and the prize is within reach.
Wait, do you imply that the uniparty is opposed to a one world government? You're correct if you exclude them from equation. What we are experiencing is inevitable. It's in our nature. Everyone wants to rule everything.
There had always been these luxury Marxists since the day Marx sprouted his ideas. These people dream of a utopian world where somehow they're not personally a part of it. Their fantasy of an authoritarian utopian world only ever applies to other small people. Not much different than the wealthy people living in gated communities in the suburbs calling for Defund the Police.
"Why are people so set on destroying western civilization?"
This is the only way they can have their big glorious revolution, you know, the one where they go goose-steppin' around in big black skin-head boots, carrying far-too-large burgundy-red flags and big crusty bolt action rifles which they use to crush the skulls of the dirty Boogies into the dust where they belong.
Look at what the leftists fleeing California have done to the surrounding states and are doing in Texas. Is anyone reading this old enough to recall a Consevative California?
For those of us who are religious, we have the hope of crying “How much longer till Jesus comes back!”
And I say that somewhat jokingly here, but in all sincerity there is a lot of hope in the idea that Jesus will return one day and make everything right.
It’s a power play. Marxists want to destroy civiliation, de-stabilize it so that they can grab power. (Islams wants power so it can turn the whole world to Islam.) But for the Marxists especially, for all their “talk” about being for the oppressed, for being the voice of those without power, that tune will change as soon as they get power. So don’t believe them one bit.
Because competition between countries almost always includes attempts to weaken those countries from within by convincing those who live there that their systrm sucks. (See e.g. Radio Free Europe.)
We just happen to live in a country that is so open that we allow the idea that our system is awful to be publicly debated; this is a feature, not a flaw. The larger problem is that we are increasingly allowing our children to be indoctrinated with these ideas without first having the knowledge or life experience to properly consider them. That's a real problem.
Some of them are driven by failing religion (Islam) or failed ideology (Marxism) but many are just nihilists.
Nihilists find life meaningless. They have no purpose. Whatever they thought would give their life meaning has failed them. They're angry and want to tear down "the system." And the Internet has made it is easy to discover the lies and manipulations of the "elites" who control the system (see The Revolt of the Public: https://a.co/d/6QfXoFW).
Some find purpose in saving the world from climate change, but it turns out that's pretty frustrating work, and it never ends.
Others find purpose in social justice, which has morphed into racism, decolonization and "equality of outcomes." Also frustrating and unending.
In all cases, they are angry and want to tear down the system, including capitalism, liberal democracy and the institutions that make up Western Civilization. They don't need specific goals or ideas of what they want to create, except perhaps an unobtainable utopia where everyone is happy and equal and no one exploits anything, including nature.
They love demonstrations where they can smash stuff, light stuff on fire and clash with the police. ANTIFA has good ones. The Free Palestine ones are trending right now.
"The folks who make allegations against us are steeped in the worst kind of racism."
Yes, I was going to comment on that too.
Anything with the word "racism" in it sells. As a schoolteacher, I used to be very earnest about teaching my kids about Brown v. Board of Education, Emmett Till (before most people), and the effects of Jim Crow. Nowadays I think that LBJ's Great Society, which broke up Black families and, fifty years later, has left multi-generational welfare families feckless and uneducable, has been far worse.
We reap the Great Society in our daily trips in New York City's subways, on our streets, and in our schools. DEI has infected our thinking to such an extent that we have become blithering idiots. And our cities, symbols of both striving and of achievement, are derelict.
We've treated Palestinians like our inner-city Blacks. As a result, they too have abandoned their roles as responsible citizens and subsist on largesse.
Outstanding work, Francesca! These people are filthy, bored multimillionaires who play with peoples lives as if this were the Hunger Games. It's gross.
I'm perfectly fine rounding up these folks, stripping them of US citizenship and sending them on a one way flight to their beloved land of milk and honey. We are in an existential war. Whether you wish to believe it or not makes no difference. If we don't start taking the gloves off and defending in quite robust ways our western liberal democracy and capitalism as the proven economic path to prosperity and individual freedom, we will lose.
The Ecologist which was supposed to be about environmental issues now suddenly has decided to go all in for Hamas. This (not behind a paywall) gives the justification and explains what they are goign to be doing going forward. Among other thing I learned is that they are taking over the late Extinction Rebellion apparatus. I had no idea that XR had itself become extinct. https://theecologist.org/2023/nov/07/just-stop-genocide
Personally I didn't realise that Hamas were so sustainably minded.
The answer will be in the web of cross funding. The phrase -- he who pays the piper call the tune springs to mind.
Hamas must be the most fuel efficient group in history, they have been warning of hospitals running out of fuel since October 9th? And yet, Sifa is still lit up like a Christmas tree!
Or they are massive liars... The world may never know.
Greta is just another manifestation on Marxism on the left. It's never about any specific cause. They will never be satisfied if any problem is finally solved, because the entire movement is about the movement. The movement must never stop and must continue and continue and continue. One revolution after another. Greta is probably too stupid to truly realize this but this was in the writing of Krupskaya, Lenin's wife.
It won't be long before that misguided leftist girl ends her own life. Anyone who places the least bit of value on her rantings is deeply troubled as well.
So these people live in China, and fund foundations here in the US. Can you say collusion between the Chicoms and these evil bastards? Why is there no IRS investigation into the foundations that take their money? Why are they not listed as foreign enemy agents? Why are there no sanctions on them and their money?
Precisely. And let's not forget who hatched and deliberately spread the Covid 19 virus that caused death and economic destruction. And, due to the complicity of the United States gangster government, have - to date - gotten away with the crime of the 21st Century. While our streets are filled with vermin cheering for the crime of the 20th Century. But then, at least we had Nuremburg and the criminals were hunted down even to this day.
With the leftist democrats that have infiltrated our government there is no way to rid our country of them. They run the universities, our local DA’s and most of the local cities. If we don’t take a stand we will all be speaking Chinese and Arabic.
Limousine communists are the worst kind of useful idiots. Thank you for reporting that. Please keep up the scrutiny on these clowns. Heavens know the MSM won't.
One can take some comfort in knowing that what has been hidden is now revealed. Rather like my apartment on the Lower East Side many years ago: My young wife would wait in the hall while I flipped on the lights in the kitchen. The cockroaches would freeze on the floor for a few seconds and then scurry back in their hidey-holes. And then my girl would come in. In this case, the vermin think the kitchen is now theirs. Big surprise awaits them.
And for us!! We’re all just minding our business, going through our days, and there are all of these sickos out there plotting our demise! Something is seriously wrong in the world.
1804 books, what a laugh. Hati has been a beacon of freedom and prosperity since the revolution? Correct? Funny how myopic and dishonest Marxist supports can be. Cuba only survived propped by finding from USSR and I don't recall reading of people leaving Florida to get to Cuba for freedom and prosperity. Venezuela only worked for a while as the exploited then misappropriated oil money. Now people starve and flee. How many millions died under Mao in China, under Pol Pot in the killing fields. Under Lenin. Why is it that refugees all flee to the western democracies with judeochristisn values. Capitalist based economics brought prosperity to the world. China succeeds in part by selling exploited labor to the West and stealing intellectual property. Honestly. This guy should be stripped of citizenship if he lives in Shanghai and denied a passport.
I figured someone had to be paying protestors just like BLM did in 2020. Otherwise people would be looking for or at work. You have a right to free speech but only as an American with loyalty to our constitution.
Mr. Steffen, This is a near perfect response. No does “flee” to Iran or to the Gaza Strip do they. And hundreds of thousands flood our borders. Wonder why?
The trifecta of Iran-Russia-CCP is alarming. I have colleagues who have sent out institutional promotions to participate in 'Shut it Down for Palestine' as part of the Climate Justice movement. I wrote them bloody hell and got nothing in response. I'd love to know who else is behind that agenda. I see it creeping out into what I thought were my peaceful networks: environmentalism, art, poetry. It's so disturbing.
Silly me, I thought it was iran and Russia that were funding "Kill the Jews" rallies. Leadership from progressive Americans certainly explains the same slogans, in perfect English, appearing worldwide. Who needs foreign influence when we're so ready to hang ourselves with our own rope!
Anything with the word People in it is Marxist, especially if it includes Democratic: People's Forum, People's Republic of China, Democratic People's Republic of Korea. On the bright side, Singham and Evans have no children because they are too busy activisming. Emperor Xi thanks them, Biden, and Newsom for serving as such obedient court eunuchs. Keep up the naming and shaming, FP.
True enough. Many of us refer to our county in Maryland as The People’s Republic of Montgomery County.
Oh god. I grew up there but so glad I got out!
Saw a headline yesterday about a Maryland High School that hosts a Pro-Palestine rally and I couldn’t bring myself to read the article, because I really didn’t want to find out that I probably know the high school.
Last year my mother, who works for MCPS got an email (she was visiting me and I saw the email as she opened it) and it told all employees that it was policy NOT to tell parents if their teenager starts using a new gender identity at school. And she was like, “I got to get outta here.” Thankfully, she is retiring and moving to Texas with me!
Yes! The whole trans thing is playing out in MOCO. Thing is, parents are pulling their kids out of public schools in record numbers.
I’ve heard. Thankfully my mom wasn’t a classroom teacher and so largely didn’t have to deal with that whole mess, but yes it sounds bad.
There used to be an “opt-out” choice for parents who didn’t want their kids sexually groomed. MCPS took that choice away.
I grew up with a lot of kids from Montgomery County at summer camp. All played soccer. It must be like where I grew up, Cherry Hill, NJ - a bastion of progressive loons.
Oh yes I was a soccer player too! We made fun of the NJ kids we played against, sorry!
But indeed, it is heavily progressive-liberal.
My poor grandfather, who is very conservative, was concerned about moving to Austin, Texas because he heard that Austin is a “blue island” in a sea of red. And I was like, “Papa! I grew up in MOCO! (as we called it then) Austin’s waaaayyy more balanced that MoCo! I’ll be fine.” Made me laugh.
Yup, soccer was not our strong suit.
Two left feet.
But I’m confident my neighborhood street hockey team could beat the best MOCO could field.
Your grandfather was smart moving to Texas.
I am stuck in NJ 😡.
Haha, oh I am sure.
Sorry about being stuck in NJ. Sending you good vibes for fighting the good fight.
Brian, as Thoreau would say, "That is a great disservice to the loon."
🤣🤣
I live in PG and we just call it the People’s Republic of Maryland 😆
You would be 100% correct. It’s interesting that three counties determine the political structure and direction of the state.
I mean honestly it’s just tyranny of majority. They’re the most population dense and I would imagine other states with this issue have same reason 🤷🏽♀️
But don’t worry. Puppy’s Pride parade is being read in schools across MoCo 💪🏽💪🏽🤦🏽♀️
But isn’t that the case in most states? It is in Oregon and Washington.
I live in Portland, Oregon. Please express empathy for my plight.
Yes we do!!!
Love that. I'm in Montgomery County PA. Same same.
Another MOCO refugee here. Even when growing up, the progressives were beginning to go far left with the governance, including the schools. None in my family live there anymore, and few of my childhood friends as well. That said, it was still a nice place to grow up (Montgomery Village) and I wouldn't trade it with any place in the world for that. But I would not choose to raise children there today.
People or Democratic. They are neither for the People or Democratic.
Activictimising
Thanks for "activictimising". Stealing...
He who controls the language wins the war. The left has become good at twisting language to their purposes.
There is no “we” here. The FBI had it right in The first place. Parasites like these hypocrites need to go.
This guy is a great example of an immigrant failure story. Sure he made millions, but he never assimilated into our culture. Someone else surely would have built the company he did. I’d rather it would have been a patriot.
His airhead wife is just a useful idiot.
Oh, he assimilated into our culture, the culture of the Left, which is oppressive and power-driven. He felt a certain kinship. His wife isn't an airhead, she is evil.
Always the case with these people. Talk trash about the US and the west in general, glorify communist countries and dictatorships, all while taking full advantage of the opportunities here. He would not have made his millions anywhere else. Certainly not in the people’s republic. Seeing similar with all the campus clown shows lately. Righteous fists waving in the air, tearing down posters, all while hiding behind their professors and the safety of these ridiculous infantilizing institutions.
He is the spawn of academia.
Yep. And if you look at Marxist history the elites and intelligentsia are the first to go. Yet another irony.
Both. Let's hear more about her family background.
I have a better idea. Freeze all their US based assets. If they don’t believe in the country that they leveraged to create all their wealth then I guess they don’t need us. Let them try to recreate it in the CCP.
AL, speaking about 'hanging ourselves with our own rope' whatever has happened to the grandfather of American progressives - the Communist Party USA? Out of nowhere come the usurpers The People's Forum and steals the spotlight along with all the funding, with nary a headline about those good old fashioned Communists. They probably don't even qualify for FBI surveillance anymore.
It appears that even in the socialist world of global domination there's competition. Who knew?
I'd make a bet they hate each other..
The focus on communists ended on Sept 11/2001, when the US government realized that it had been fighting the wrong enemy. In trying to fight the Russian communists in Afghanistan, they funded Islamic fundamentalists.
Now, however, the communist threat is again significant, except that it's already in all our institutions - and it has made friends with Islamic fundies. Fun times. Parents need to wake up and start undoing the indoctrination their kids are getting from schools.
They aren't part of our rope. Their allegiance obviously lies elsewhere.
"Kill the Jews" rallies.
Lol.
Clearly, you are not Jewish. That's exactly what they are.
Clearly you are new here and not familiar with our resident agitator troll
Lol. Really?..So a rally to end occupation is...."Kill the Jews?" rally?
So much to unpack there.
What's next? Palestinian flag is a hate symbol? Wait....I think that's already the new rule.
I know THIS guy is pretty clear, though.

Actually not as clear you think. The captions sometimes aren’t even his words. He clearly didn’t say “We are WHITE”, he said “We are RIGHT” and he never says f*gg*t. I can’t make out what he says there. Some of it may not be English.
He’s angry because people in America are demonstrating in support of Hamas, who just wantonly raped and massacred civilians, including women, children and infants because they are Jewish. There really is no other explanation for beheading a child or infant than for what they are.
Do you really think you understand the Israeli-Palestinian conflict?
All the comments on that video reveal how easy it is to manipulate people who know almost nothing about a situation with a bit of propaganda.
So LOL all you want. When you stop laughing maybe you’ll take some time to understand what’s happening and realize that Israel is not committing genocide. It is actually quite the reverse. Islamists have expelled Jews from almost the entire Middle East and North Africa, except for Israel. They simply will not tolerate Jewish dominion over one inch of the region. Palestinians, Arabs in a very small part of the ME, are pawns caught in the middle. The Arabs have never accepted any division of the region and have been waging a war since 1948 to eliminate the Jews, or at least make them subjects (dhimmis) under their rule. All the surrounding Arab countries intentionally keep the Palestinians stateless (as refugees) to continue the war against Israel.
The Jews have been defending themselves from a genocide since re-establishing a state in their ancestral homeland. Israel (Zion) was established to defend against a nearly successful genocide by the Nazis, which had origins going back long before the Nazis.
The massacre on Oct 7 was an unambiguous continuation of an ongoing Islamist genocide (a Jihad) of not only Jews, but also the Judeo-Christian West (remember 9/11?).
Perhaps one day you will be able to wrap your head around why Jews in America are so touchy about Americans who demonstrate in support of the butchers who are waging a genocide against them.
Ironic, isn’t it? But not something to laugh about.
Lol!! Nope. He said what he said. Don't need captions. Was speaking English. Crystal clear.
Nah. People are demonstrating in support of the Palestinian people. Different than Hamas. Your conflation is gross.
Go grab your buddies and tell Netanyahu to stop paying Hamas to commit terrorism against his own people so he can ensure there will be no Palestinian freedom/land and occupation/subjugation can continue indefinitely.
Well there goes your credibility.
Good reporting. Scary. In 2017 neo Nazis chanted ‘Jews will not replace us.’ The left was outraged, and rightly so. Now, a mere six years later, the fringe left is chanting ‘gas the Jews.’ This time: It’s all good. Ludicrous and grotesque hypocrisy. I’m not surprised these pro-Hamas fascists are being supported by wealthy pseudo marxists. What is wrong with these imbeciles?
Michael Mohr
Sincere American Writing
https://michaelmohr.substack.com/
You forgot one big difference - the nuts who marched in Charlottesville had no power, no money and no connections to the establishment. And were widely ridiculed and reviled. These lunatics are wealthy, well connected and well supported by the Democrat Party and their media and Hollywood stooges who laud them. The American left is a dagger pointed at the heart of America.
Charlottesville was supposed to be a gathering of the nationwide, even worldwide far right. They put out a Nazi APB (ANB?) and one group of a few hundred jackasses was all they could get. What the far left is doing now is orders of magnitude bigger.
Anytime I mention Jew hatred on the right, people point to Charlottesville. That was so 2017... and that's the only thing people can point to... even the media cites this over and over again. Proving your point.
I agree.
VERY crucial point.
In the past five weeks we have seen 100 Charlottesvilles.
And while the pathetic wannabe brownshirts who marched in VA didn't call for murder and genocide, these monsters exult in it. Sort of like how it was noted that even the Nazis tried to cover up their monstrous crimes, while Hamas published them to the world and their drooling acolytes exult in them.
And yet, despite Hamas’ own livestreaming their terrorism, I still encounter – daily – commenters in MSM, alleging that Israel was “behind“ the terrorism, and that it was carried out by the IDF. It’s just so hard to live in an atmosphere where the most obvious lies seem to be given credence. The world seems to have turned into an all encompassing bath of crazy.
And during his infamous Charlottesville press conference, Trump twice 'condemned the white supremacists totally' (a strong condemnation that is still unreported by the liars in our media).
How many political leaders on the left have been as blunt in condemning today's Hamas rioters?
Our problem isn’t the few pathetic white supremacists that showed up in Charlottesville. Our problem is the thousands of brainwashed leftist punks on college campuses calling for the death of Jews.
More than that.
The chant started as "you will not replace us," i.e. you will not replace white men. They had every right to chant that. However, as with all things, it went a bit too far, and made a real and present concern appear "extreme" and "racist," even though right before our eyes, white men are erased as much as possible. If I see one more ad with a white woman married to a black man...not to say there's anything wrong with that -- except for the fact that I haven't seen a white man coupled with a white woman in advertising in a long time.
Ever wonder why we don't see in those ads much white man with black women, or white woman with Asian man either? Their racial ideology has some very specific codings that reflect how very racist they really are.
That said, let's not sugarcoat the Charlottesville bunch. Those clowns there were racist white supremacists.
I was watching a lot of Proud Boys stuff leading up to the march. The discussion was focused on resisting anti-white propaganda. Thats' not "white supremacist." And frankly, the term "white supremacist" is also propaganda.
They think they are always in the morally right position no matter what their stance. It’s more than hypocrisy, it’s…well hell I don’t know the right word for it, but it’s infuriating that’s for sure. Quick, someone invent a word for the infuriating hypocrisy of a person with the intellect of a teenage and the emotional maturity of a two-year old who always sincerely believe they are right no matter what.
Narcissism
To stop them we all need to vote in the next Presidential election. Why can’t the Republicans give us some more choices.
The word you’re struggling to find is “Woke”. We’re drowning in it.
All the other words, like narcissism, dark triad, arrogance, etc. are merely a subset of Woke.
Hahaha, ok fair enough. Will go with Woke.
Look up the Dark Tetrad from Jordan Peterson. It’s all about spotting psychopaths like Singham and Evans.
Oooh yes! I have heard him speak on this! Gooooood point.
Arrogance
It was not just the left that was outraged in 2017. It is only the left that celebrates 10/7.
Sadly, they're no longer the "fringe" left. They're now mainstream. They're liberals with convictions. The left always ends up eating its own, as so many liberals are finally learning.
There's no question that Jews are being attacked from the right and the left now. Unfortunately, there is little Jews can do stop either source of hatred, given our Constitution. If American Nazis can march through any town they want, just like guys with tiki torches in Charlottesville, and students at Harvard or Columbia have every right to attack Israel verbally or in demonstrations, the only recourse for Jews is to do their best to out-argue antisemites on either side, since there is no way at all to suppress them. I'm not hopeful that out-arguing haters of Jews will be possible. I think that American Jews will now simply have to live with unprecedented levels of hostility for the duration. Of course they will "fight back," as The Free Press constantly does. But we've simply entered a new negative phase of American history where Jews are concerned. When Trump broke all norms with his open race-baiting and congratulations to "fine people" shouting "Jews will not replace us," he opened floodgates of ancient Klan-style hatred on the right, just like ancient racism against blacks. There's now no way to censor such hatred away, since it is part and parcel of MAGA. And no matter how much rich Jewish donors may fume, they are powerless to change fifty years of political correctness focused on "oppressors" and "oppressed" in all areas, including Israel. The faculty at Harvard is much more powerful than its donors, and they aren't budging. After decades of hugely successful assimilation leading to most Americans not knowing or caring who is Jewish and who is not--a healthy state of affairs--we're now back to a world before assimilation in which thugs on the right and intellectuals on the left are both focused on identifying and harassing Jews with Constitutionally protected speech and marches. Hard to believe the halcyon days of assimilation are likely to return soon, if ever.
Another idiot repeating the “fine people one both sides” misquote. Are you impervious to facts? Don’t answer that, we already know.
I'm an "idiot" just like Gary Cohn of Goldman Sachs who immediately resigned from Trump's staff after he, like me, "misinterpreted" Trump's comments. Amazing how many actually quite brilliant people, like Cohn, "misinterpreted" your hero's comments the way I did.
Not my hero. But I think it’s stupid when the press plays the misquote game. Those that are incapable of sorting it out when it happens are not worth listening to.
This media lie was not that. It was so obvious that even casual observers who watched the entire statement were not fooled. It’s a big Dem lie invented by the media and I will give no credence to anyone foolish enough to repeat it.
You’re an agitator. Get educated and stop spreading lies.
There's not a single lie in my comments. You're the one who's trying to deceive people for Trump with the lie that his comments on Charlottesville were just fine and were only criticized because the hated MSM somehow distorted them. Ask Gary Cohn, on the of most successful Jews in America, how "distorted" they were. Do you always call those who disagree with you uneducated "agitators." I've got a PhD; that's a start.
Oh the PhD card. Oh let me listen to the brilliant PhD while he tells me how the world works. In case you can’t tell that’s sarcasm.
Based on the condition of our academic institutions your PhD makes you less credible.
Spreading of MSM lies makes you a joke.
I never voted for Trump. But at least I educated myself about him.
it must be said you are repeating lies and falsehoods on Trump. Do yourself and the rest of us a favor and maybe stop watching CNN and MSNBC and actually get yourself better informed. You’re making yourself look like a useful fool. He said “Fine people”, yes, bu he is repeatedly misquoted by the media and obviously perpetuated by people like you. It’s grotesque. Do the decent thing and check out what he actually said.
Then start by reading about Trump moving the capital of Israel to Jerusalem and then go on to educate yourself on the Abraham Accords. If Trump were on the left he’d have a Nobel Peace Prize by now with the Accords.
Next read up on how amongst many other good things, Trump finally got Historically Black Schools and Colleges (HBSC) funded. After years of them begging Democrats who refused to do it. Even Obama refused because he was so deep in the pocket of the teacher’s unions. And ask about the First Step program he signed into law to help largely African Americans in prison.
Stop feeding into the hatred.
Nonsense. The incontrovertible proof that CNN, MSNBC, and I have this right, and you have it dead wrong is the indisputable fact that the most prominent Jewish member of Trump's government when he made this grotesque statement, Gary Cohn of Goldman Sachs, immediately felt compelled as a Jew to totally resign and distance himself from Trump. How do you explain Cohn's "mistake" from your erroneous point of view? One of the sleazy things about Trump is the way he tries to have it both ways. On the one hand, he totally pandered to Jews with both the Jerusalem move and the Abraham Accords. On the other he inspired antisemitic haters with his weasel words (remember how he pretended never to have heard of David Duke when journalists tried to corner him about Duke; plausible deniability is Trump's middle name) and constant race-baiting. Guess you missed the memo about how the American Nazi mass murderer of Jews in Pittsburgh was a huge Trump fan. There was visual proof on your hated CNN and MSNBC about that too. Again, I believed my eyes and ears. It's understandably given how Trump was Shel Adelson's dream of an American presidential supporter of Likud Israel that you would want to see him in the best light possible, though if you admire him so much, why didn't you vote for him? Nonetheless, Trump is the most fascistic political figure in American history, one who calls his enemies "vermin" to be eliminated, exactly as Hitler described Jews, and the greatest danger to American democracy in our history, openly discussing how he wants to ditch our Constitution and weaponize the Justice Department to go after his enemies, exactly as Hitler did in Germany. I can understand how uneducated people who've been screwed over economically by globalization now see Trump as their vehicle for revenge, exactly as working-class Germans had been screwed over themselves and wanted vengeance against "elites" through Hitler. But I can't understand at all how any educated person who loves our Constitutional democracy could view Trump with anything but fear and loathing. If he is elected, this country is finished.
Deranged, utterly barmy.
Should have known better than to respond to someone with obvious Trump Derangement Syndrome. There’s no help for you.
Lesson learned. I’ll be deleting any response without reading. Do get help if there is any. Bye.
It's Trump's fans who are deranged. But you said you never voted for him, That makes you even odder to be defending him as you do. He did a lot for Shel Adelson and Bibi, no question, and became Likud's "Messiah." Whether or not that will look to history like a good thing for Israel remains to be seen, especially now.
What a bunch of blather. And your love of Gary Cohn is strange. Talk about crazy hero worship. If what you just wrote us all you have you might as well leave this Substack and never look back. We don’t take kindly to fools here.
It's always amusing to rile up guys like you, just as it's fun when the law makes your Dear Leader red in the face as he let's loose with his own hapless stream of invective. H.L. Mencken used to enjoy making guys like you mad, too. He called it "stirring up the animals."
Douchebags like you are a dime a dozen. I just love wasting your time responding to me. Hopefully it’s saving countless others from having to listen to you.
I hesitate to comment here because I don't want to engage in argument. Please take this from a political independent who is not a trump fan, but who think his comments were indeed misrepresented regarding the Charlottesville protest.
The protests in C'ville were over the civil war monuments being torn down in that community. People in that part of the country are proud of their civil war history, and didn't want mob rule to determine which statues or monuments should be removed with no vote from the community. (I personally found that behavior reminiscent of Mao's China and the red guards tearing down the "four olds", and it made me very uncomfortable, although I don't live in Virginia anymore.) In addition to those legitimate protesters, there were the crazies chanting the anti-Semitic phrases you referenced. There were also antifa rioters who came to cause trouble and stir people up into violent clashes.
Back to trump's "fine people" statement. It was edited. As soon as he said there were fine people on both sides, he continued and said "And I'm not talking about the neo nazis or the white nationalists, because they should condemned totally." You can find those unedited clips online - I easily found a few of them searching on Rumble.com. (Also notable is that trump has a Jewish son in law and Jewish grandchildren who he adores, which doesn't add up with supporting anti-Semites.)
My perspective is this: If I can believe that the majority of the George Floyd protesters were "fine people" out to support black Americans who were hurting at the time, and there were also antifa troublemakers out there burning down buildings and being very violent, then why can't I believe that the majority of the people in Charlottesville were there exercising their 1st amendment rights and standing against tearing down their community's monuments to history, and there were also anti-semites and antifa present who said horrible things and instigated violence? I understand that both can be true, because I understand the concept of nuance.
This "fine people" phrase was been unfairly edited and repeated ad nauseam by the press, and it showed me personally that the press were lying to me about this particular event. As the months went on, I've found more and more instances where the press misled me, and yes, lied to me. I don't want the press to tell me what to think. I want them to tell me what happened and let me draw my own conclusions. That's why I've shifted to independent media sources and tuned out the mainstream press.
I do not have the same sense that you do that the "hatred [is]... part and parcel of MAGA."
hypocrisy abounds: pink peace symbols, but supporting Hamas' slaughter; protesting Israeli "genocide" but being perfectly fine with China's systematic genocide of Uyghur Muslims; believing Venezuela is the one true democracy on earth. Perfect example of how harmful luxury beliefs are, and how only the rich can hold them
Pseudo?
All rise, the radical chic.
Michael. They have been brainwashed. Pure and simple. Think Heavens Gate. Think Manson. Nothing else explains it.
For the enemies of Western civilization, the only thing better than a useful idiot is an obscenely wealthy useful idiot. Claiming to be "Marxists" while reveling in the accumulation of capital in their own grubby little hands? Not exactly the brightest lights, these two.
Goldman Sachs is complicit in this, apparently. They have some serious 'splainin' to do.
Not to mention the irony of a bank started by Jews now being used to help fund anti-Semitic genocide.
I wonder where Singham parked his Marxism when he made enough profit over twenty years to sell a company for close to eight hundred million $. In a safe somewhere?
And I'm curious how his employees at The People's Forum defend and justify how all that money was made - the money they're living on right now.
Another spoiler alert: He ain't a Marxist, he's an Opportunist. Rules for thee, not for me.
What an asshole.
“Multimillionaire Marxists”
Only in America🤦♂️
Odd that he didn't share the fruits of the means of production evenly with his employees after the sale. One must live, I suppose.
🤣
It’s always easier being a Marxist if one is wealthy.
Yeah, I wish I had enough money to pretend to be a leftist.
Yes, I support the abolition of other people's private property. I'll keep my racehorses and yachts, thanks.
Yes, Carl. In the Soviet Union, those of Singman's ilk were called the "nomenklatura." It still applies.
The wealthy in the USSR live like Czars. Beautiful city apartments and homes. Dachas on the Black Sea. All the best.
The peasants lived in drunken poverty.
It's OK to be filthy rich so long as you periodically don the hairshirt in public and mutter a few vacuous words about "compassion" along some sort of self-loathing before climbing back into your limousine and being handed a glass of Crystal. "Here's to the little people who made it all happen!"
How do you think the Very wealthy Chinese also made their money. On the backs of poor people who work for almost nothing in their factories.
Watching and listening to the Pro Israel March today brought me to tears. Beautiful music. It was so full of light, love, faith, courage and of course heartbreak. Quite the contrast to the hate fueled rage and darkness of pro Palestine marches. I stand with Israel!
Hundreds of thousands of good people.
No violence. No riots. No examples of hate.
But somehow they're 'the bad guys' in all this.
Does anyone else here remember the right-of-center rallies in Washtingon and elsewhere that had no violence and left no trash? There were many of them. Jan-6 was clearly an outlier. For years, until then, the left had tried to get pro-Trump rallies to lead to violence to no avail.
I will go to my grave believing that much of the violence on January 6th was carried out by FBI funded actors who were told to make it 'look bad' that day.
For example, there was zero reason anyone that day needed to scale the walls to get into the capital. But it made for powerful theater, which is why some people did it.
Funny how of all the cases they've prosecuted regarding January 6th, I've never seen anyone officially accused of scaling the walls outside the capital. Weird, huh?
You beat me to the punch, I was about the write the very same thing.
The "forbidden footage" which the DoJ refuses to allow to be viewed by the public shows totally peaceful and unarmed Trump supporters walking through the People's Building (after having been motioned in by capital police) and damaging nothing. But this conflicts with the wall-scaling, window-smashing image by FBI and ANTIFA tools which they want to stand as the official narrative. And it has worked flawlessly.
Windows were broken by feds, too.
None of this is surprising. The project of destroying Western civilization is shared by a number of groups. Of course those groups are going to work together to whatever extent they are able to manage.
But WHY?????? Why are people so set on destroying western civilization???
It's the only thing that stands in the way of their authoritarian "utopia."
Marxists (both the Woke American ones and the Chinese Maoist ones) want to destroy Western civilization because, with its messy ideas of freedom, it's a constant threat to their ability to impose the "perfect" communist ideology. No West=no freedom for people to dream about or to flee to.
Islamists want to destroy Western civilization so they can fulfill their dream of forcing the whole world to convert to Islam.
Excellent. And I would add the globalists detest America because it is the one nation that stands in opposition to their one world view and thirst for control. Degrade and destabilize America and the prize is within reach.
Wait, do you imply that the uniparty is opposed to a one world government? You're correct if you exclude them from equation. What we are experiencing is inevitable. It's in our nature. Everyone wants to rule everything.
American sovereignty has been eroded for years by the uniparty.
https://youtu.be/aGCdLKXNF3w?si=5ElS2gUsrUZdYeox&t=33
I was thinking the exact same thing (I even heard the intro inside my head!). 😎
There is also an undercurrent of nihilism which runs through the Left. FFS, most of them are on some version of SSRI/Benzo cocktail to begin with.
So sad. Apparently history is doomed to repeat itself. Again. Hope we can get ahead of it this time.
There had always been these luxury Marxists since the day Marx sprouted his ideas. These people dream of a utopian world where somehow they're not personally a part of it. Their fantasy of an authoritarian utopian world only ever applies to other small people. Not much different than the wealthy people living in gated communities in the suburbs calling for Defund the Police.
The WEF types command the Proles eat bugs and forgo meat while dining on fillet mignon and caviar themselves.
"Why are people so set on destroying western civilization?"
This is the only way they can have their big glorious revolution, you know, the one where they go goose-steppin' around in big black skin-head boots, carrying far-too-large burgundy-red flags and big crusty bolt action rifles which they use to crush the skulls of the dirty Boogies into the dust where they belong.
Ugh. How much longer ‘til we can go to Mars
You should read more science fiction. The problem is that, if we go to Mars, we'll just take all this with us.
Look at what the leftists fleeing California have done to the surrounding states and are doing in Texas. Is anyone reading this old enough to recall a Consevative California?
Yeah, the first thing I learned to tell people when I moved to Texas was “I’m not from California!!”
Yes, I remember
Better idea. Let them set up their utopia there. Without a choice.
Mars - the last Red State.
For those of us who are religious, we have the hope of crying “How much longer till Jesus comes back!”
And I say that somewhat jokingly here, but in all sincerity there is a lot of hope in the idea that Jesus will return one day and make everything right.
It’s a power play. Marxists want to destroy civiliation, de-stabilize it so that they can grab power. (Islams wants power so it can turn the whole world to Islam.) But for the Marxists especially, for all their “talk” about being for the oppressed, for being the voice of those without power, that tune will change as soon as they get power. So don’t believe them one bit.
Because competition between countries almost always includes attempts to weaken those countries from within by convincing those who live there that their systrm sucks. (See e.g. Radio Free Europe.)
We just happen to live in a country that is so open that we allow the idea that our system is awful to be publicly debated; this is a feature, not a flaw. The larger problem is that we are increasingly allowing our children to be indoctrinated with these ideas without first having the knowledge or life experience to properly consider them. That's a real problem.
Because they are angry.
Some of them are driven by failing religion (Islam) or failed ideology (Marxism) but many are just nihilists.
Nihilists find life meaningless. They have no purpose. Whatever they thought would give their life meaning has failed them. They're angry and want to tear down "the system." And the Internet has made it is easy to discover the lies and manipulations of the "elites" who control the system (see The Revolt of the Public: https://a.co/d/6QfXoFW).
Some find purpose in saving the world from climate change, but it turns out that's pretty frustrating work, and it never ends.
Others find purpose in social justice, which has morphed into racism, decolonization and "equality of outcomes." Also frustrating and unending.
In all cases, they are angry and want to tear down the system, including capitalism, liberal democracy and the institutions that make up Western Civilization. They don't need specific goals or ideas of what they want to create, except perhaps an unobtainable utopia where everyone is happy and equal and no one exploits anything, including nature.
They love demonstrations where they can smash stuff, light stuff on fire and clash with the police. ANTIFA has good ones. The Free Palestine ones are trending right now.
Thank you for that. It’s an explanation I hadn’t heard, and it makes sense.
"Why?" Envy, resentment, and greed.
Sort of on topic. I've just read that in the 2020 election 17,327 dead voters cast their ballot for JoeBama in Michigan.
"The folks who make allegations against us are steeped in the worst kind of racism"
Personally, I think Oct 7 is the worst kind of racism.
Note that hyperbolic accusations of racism are a subversive socialist tactic, because they think Westerners are vulnerable to accusations of racism.
Democrat women in particular:
"Racism is more dangerous than a virus."
- The Epoch Times, WHO, and CDC
"The folks who make allegations against us are steeped in the worst kind of racism."
Yes, I was going to comment on that too.
Anything with the word "racism" in it sells. As a schoolteacher, I used to be very earnest about teaching my kids about Brown v. Board of Education, Emmett Till (before most people), and the effects of Jim Crow. Nowadays I think that LBJ's Great Society, which broke up Black families and, fifty years later, has left multi-generational welfare families feckless and uneducable, has been far worse.
We reap the Great Society in our daily trips in New York City's subways, on our streets, and in our schools. DEI has infected our thinking to such an extent that we have become blithering idiots. And our cities, symbols of both striving and of achievement, are derelict.
We've treated Palestinians like our inner-city Blacks. As a result, they too have abandoned their roles as responsible citizens and subsist on largesse.
I agree with you.
They’re high from smoking all that projection.
Outstanding work, Francesca! These people are filthy, bored multimillionaires who play with peoples lives as if this were the Hunger Games. It's gross.
"the Hunger Games"
This is not the first time than analogy has been used. Nor the last.
I'm perfectly fine rounding up these folks, stripping them of US citizenship and sending them on a one way flight to their beloved land of milk and honey. We are in an existential war. Whether you wish to believe it or not makes no difference. If we don't start taking the gloves off and defending in quite robust ways our western liberal democracy and capitalism as the proven economic path to prosperity and individual freedom, we will lose.
Iran needs to be the next stop. You can’t kill something by just cutting off a finger.
Does not surprise me. The professional intersectionality of various umbrella activist organization is abundantly clear.
The mantra should always be -- follow the money through various trails and meanderings.
And why stop with this pair? I suspect a multitude of far-left organizations will suddenly decide they are going all in for Hamas.
For example:
Greta Thunberg and her climate change operation has done a hard shift towards a pro-Hamas position. She started chanting 'no climate justice on occupied land' a chant which makes no sense. https://www.telegraph.co.uk/world-news/2023/11/13/greta-thunberg-pro-palestine-mic-climate-march-amsterdam/ or https://archive.is/y9qy5
The Ecologist which was supposed to be about environmental issues now suddenly has decided to go all in for Hamas. This (not behind a paywall) gives the justification and explains what they are goign to be doing going forward. Among other thing I learned is that they are taking over the late Extinction Rebellion apparatus. I had no idea that XR had itself become extinct. https://theecologist.org/2023/nov/07/just-stop-genocide
Personally I didn't realise that Hamas were so sustainably minded.
The answer will be in the web of cross funding. The phrase -- he who pays the piper call the tune springs to mind.
Hamas must be the most fuel efficient group in history, they have been warning of hospitals running out of fuel since October 9th? And yet, Sifa is still lit up like a Christmas tree!
Or they are massive liars... The world may never know.
People who swoon for the demented ravings of a retarded Swedish teenage girls do not merit anything but utter contempt.
Greta is just another manifestation on Marxism on the left. It's never about any specific cause. They will never be satisfied if any problem is finally solved, because the entire movement is about the movement. The movement must never stop and must continue and continue and continue. One revolution after another. Greta is probably too stupid to truly realize this but this was in the writing of Krupskaya, Lenin's wife.
Well said!!
It won't be long before that misguided leftist girl ends her own life. Anyone who places the least bit of value on her rantings is deeply troubled as well.
Greta Thundberg is the epitome of a useful idiot. She needs to address her visible mental issues before it's too late.
I can just picture Greta Thunberg shouting "How Dare You" as she's being tossed off a high-rise in Gaza...
So these people live in China, and fund foundations here in the US. Can you say collusion between the Chicoms and these evil bastards? Why is there no IRS investigation into the foundations that take their money? Why are they not listed as foreign enemy agents? Why are there no sanctions on them and their money?
Precisely. And let's not forget who hatched and deliberately spread the Covid 19 virus that caused death and economic destruction. And, due to the complicity of the United States gangster government, have - to date - gotten away with the crime of the 21st Century. While our streets are filled with vermin cheering for the crime of the 20th Century. But then, at least we had Nuremburg and the criminals were hunted down even to this day.
With the leftist democrats that have infiltrated our government there is no way to rid our country of them. They run the universities, our local DA’s and most of the local cities. If we don’t take a stand we will all be speaking Chinese and Arabic.
Limousine communists are the worst kind of useful idiots. Thank you for reporting that. Please keep up the scrutiny on these clowns. Heavens know the MSM won't.
One can take some comfort in knowing that what has been hidden is now revealed. Rather like my apartment on the Lower East Side many years ago: My young wife would wait in the hall while I flipped on the lights in the kitchen. The cockroaches would freeze on the floor for a few seconds and then scurry back in their hidey-holes. And then my girl would come in. In this case, the vermin think the kitchen is now theirs. Big surprise awaits them.
Where's my LoL like?
🤣
What in the holy hell?!? Where do these nut jobs come from? Extra prayers for Israel tonight.
And for us!! We’re all just minding our business, going through our days, and there are all of these sickos out there plotting our demise! Something is seriously wrong in the world.
In case you missed it, the entire Democrat Party is steeped in this poison.
1804 books, what a laugh. Hati has been a beacon of freedom and prosperity since the revolution? Correct? Funny how myopic and dishonest Marxist supports can be. Cuba only survived propped by finding from USSR and I don't recall reading of people leaving Florida to get to Cuba for freedom and prosperity. Venezuela only worked for a while as the exploited then misappropriated oil money. Now people starve and flee. How many millions died under Mao in China, under Pol Pot in the killing fields. Under Lenin. Why is it that refugees all flee to the western democracies with judeochristisn values. Capitalist based economics brought prosperity to the world. China succeeds in part by selling exploited labor to the West and stealing intellectual property. Honestly. This guy should be stripped of citizenship if he lives in Shanghai and denied a passport.
I figured someone had to be paying protestors just like BLM did in 2020. Otherwise people would be looking for or at work. You have a right to free speech but only as an American with loyalty to our constitution.
Mr. Steffen, This is a near perfect response. No does “flee” to Iran or to the Gaza Strip do they. And hundreds of thousands flood our borders. Wonder why?
You left out Stalin.
Brilliant reply
The trifecta of Iran-Russia-CCP is alarming. I have colleagues who have sent out institutional promotions to participate in 'Shut it Down for Palestine' as part of the Climate Justice movement. I wrote them bloody hell and got nothing in response. I'd love to know who else is behind that agenda. I see it creeping out into what I thought were my peaceful networks: environmentalism, art, poetry. It's so disturbing.
