Guantanamo Bay Prisoners ‘Being Left at Death’s Door’ by Trump’s New Hunger Strike Policy

16th October 2017

Read it.

Sounds like a plan.

Look, a ‘hunger strike’ works only if whoever you’re ‘striking’ against can’t afford to let you die.

If that doesn’t apply, a ‘hunger strike’ is only a slow form of suicide.

I suspect that, unlike Obama, Trump really doesn’t give a shit if some jihadist at Gitmo starves himself to death. And I don’t see the people who have been calling him a Nazi and The New Hitler having a lot of influence over him with respect to changing that policy.

So all of the handwringing that will inevitably occur in the DemLegHump Media is just hot air. It worked with previous Establishment politicians, but it won’t work with Trump. This is just another case of the old Crustian playbook not working with someone who is not of the Crust. When will they learn? I suspect never.

Salon’s Top ‘Conservative’ List Is Nearly All ‘Never Trump’ Liberals Who Hate the Right

16th October 2017

Read it.

Over the weekend, liberal online magazine Salon put out a highly mockable list of their top “25 Conservatives Actually Worth Following on Twitter.” The story made a splash on social media, because it seemed Salon’s only criteria for being a “worthy conservative” is that you had to be an outspoken “Never-Trumper” and a fierce critic of the right. Brownie points if you support Obamacare and spew profanities at the president.

What didn’t count? Actually being a smart, thoughtful commentator on conservative ideas and a warrior against the liberal media.

Salon’s list is so out-of-touch from what a conservative is, that they even include virulently anti-conservative commentators like CNN’s Ana Navarro and the Washington Post’s Jennifer Rubin.

Well, to Salon, they probably look conservative.

The Perilous Whiteness of Pumpkins

13th October 2017

Read it.

This article examines the symbolic whiteness associated with pumpkins in the contemporary United States. Starbucks’ pumpkin spice latte, a widely circulated essay in McSweeney’s on “Decorative Gourd Season,” pumpkins in aspirational lifestyle magazines, and the reality television show Punkin Chunkin provide entry points into whiteness–pumpkin connections. Such analysis illuminates how class, gender, place, and especially race are employed in popular media and marketing of food and flavor; it suggests complicated interplay among food, leisure, labor, nostalgia, and race. Pumpkins in popular culture also reveal contemporary racial and class coding of rural versus urban places. Accumulation of critical, relational, and contextual analyses, including things seemingly as innocuous as pumpkins, points the way to a food studies of humanities and geography. When considered vis-à-vis violence and activism that incorporated pumpkins, these analyses point toward the perils of equating pumpkins and whiteness.

I defy you to read this without laughing.

Kevin Hassett Spanks The Tax Policy Center

9th October 2017

Read it.

President Trump’s new CEA chair, Kevin Hassett, walked into the lion’s den last week with his first official speech. He used the moment to pound the leftist Tax Policy Center (TPC). It was a wonderful sight.

When Hassett wasn’t pounding the TPC, he was spanking them. He took them to the woodshed, and disciplined them in public view.

Hassett rightfully accused the TPC for ignoring widely accepted economic literature, for using false assumptions on tax details that have never been published, and for manufacturing income-redistribution (“tax cuts for the rich”) and deficit numbers that don’t even exist.

No LGBT topics even came-up.”

The search for heretics and sinner is never-ending.

Brooks appears to be of the opinion, common on the left and in the Republican Establishment, that everybody is kinda-sorta an American, with some living in the U.S. and others not yet; the way Israel looks on Jews of the Diaspora.

‘Hepeating’ Is the Latest Word to Enter the Feminist Lexicon

28th September 2017

Read it.

‘Hepeating’ is the latest word to enter the feminist lexicon. Following the introduction of eye-rolling gendered terms like “manspreading” and “manflu,” the word “hepeating” has been made popular thanks to social media and countless progressive websites embracing the newly defined term.

The Leftist search for heretics and sinner proceeds apace, even when they have to make it up.

Hepeating is supposedly what happens when a woman comes up with a good idea or suggestion and pitches it at the workplace, where she’s subsequently ignored by her colleagues. But, when a male colleague repeats her words and gets a positive response, he is credited for her proposal.

Never seen that happen, during twenty-five years in IT. Never heard any woman complain about it.

Stevie Wonder Kneels ‘For America’ at Global Citizen Festival [VIDEO]

Read it.

Nobody attending a ‘global citizen festival’ is doing anything ‘for America’, no matter what is blathered. The whole point of a ‘global citizen festival’ is that we need to get beyond such nationalist ideas as America and embrace the world as our home.

Everyone who puts skin color before country ought to have the honesty to just leave.
