This proposal is defective. The proposed ‘Left Coast’ state ought to extend North to Sonoma/Napa/Yolo in order to put all the proglodyte crazies in one place.

The Revolution Eats Its Children: Antifa Supporters Cry Over Trevor Noah’s Daily Show Segment Mocking Antifa

1st September 2017

Read it.

Noah’s jokes follow the establishment media’s change in stance towards the extremist movement, which earned widespread ire following violence in Berkeley last weekend. During the protest, random onlookers, conservatives, and journalists were assaulted by gangs of black-clad “anti-fascists.” The group even went after a comedian dressed as a popcorn vendor, deeming him a capitalist.

Naturally, members of Antifa and their left-wing sympathizers did not take Noah’s jokes lightly. From accusations of Nazi sympathizing to all-out death threats, leftists are upset by the comedian’s right to tell jokes.

Academics Discover New Way to Get Offended: ‘Invisibility Microaggressions’

1st September 2017

Read it.

Two professors claim to have discovered a new form of politically incorrect offense called “invisibility microaggressions,” which are said to be even more subtle than regular microaggressions. Their proposed solution for these offenses is to get rid of meritocracy.

I am not making this up.

Campus Reform reported on Thursday that a recent study by two professors, Jasmine Mena, who teaches psychology at Bucknell University, and Annemarie Vaccaro of the University of Rhode Island, claim that they are the first academics to discover that “invisibility” is a form of microaggressions not previously described in feminist academia.

“There is a growing body of literature that suggests invisibility is a common form of exclusion — or microaggression,” Mena and Vaccaro say. “However, no studies have focused deeply on the ways women faculty and staff experience invisibility microaggressions on college campuses.”

WaPo Admits Failures of ‘Healthy’ Lunch Program, Skips Obamas’ Role

1st September 2017

Read it.

A multi-million dollar government effort to make school children eat healthier hasn’t worked, according to The Washington Post. But The Post left out one important detail: the Obama administration and First Lady Michelle Obama promoted the program. It was even part of her “Let’s Move!” program.

“The Department of Agriculture has invested seven years and several million dollars in a popular program that claims it gets students to eat significantly more fruits and vegetables,” The Post reported Aug. 24. “But as a recent critique of the research behind the program reveals, ‘significantly more’ often means an amount as small as a single bite of an apple.”

During the Obama presidency, the media repeatedly celebrated the Obamas’ lunch regulations, claiming they’d make school lunches “better” than what even parents provided. At the same time, students shared photos mocking their small, mysterious portions with the hashtag #ThanksMichelleObama.

Of course not. The Magic Negroes cannot be blamed any time, any where.

‘Shut Up,’ She Explained

1st September 2017

Read it.

In the United Kingdom, Naz Shah, a Labor Party member of Parliament, says she did not mean to “like” and retweet a tweet telling victims of child sexual abuse by gangs of Pakistani men to shut up. Her spokesman says it was an accident that she retweeted a post that said, “Those abused girls in Rotherham and elsewhere just need to shut their mouths. For the good of diversity.”
