Microsoft Blacklists Minecraft Creator for Being Politically Incorrect

30th April 2019

Read it.

Markus Persson, aka “Notch,” the original inventor of the worldwide video game phenomenon Minecraft, has been memory-holed by Microsoft from the game’s history for being politically incorrect. Persson created the original game in 2009, and sold the rights to Microsoft in 2014 for $2.5 billion. Since then, Microsoft appears to have done it’s best to scrub his memory from the franchise.

Hey, for $2.5 billion, they can memory-hole me all they want.

Ray “Capitalism Is Broken” Dalio Was The Highest Earning American Of 2018

30th April 2019

Read it.

Broken, that is, for everyone other than Ray Dalio, who was last year’s best paid hedge fund manager, according to DealBook; and since hedge funders generate the highest current income of all “workers”, he was effectively the highest paid American in 2018 (this, of course, excludes capital gains and other non-current income), when it is estimated that Dalio earned $2 billion over the last 12 months, up from a reported $1.3 billion in 2017.

As I have repeatedly pointed out, all of this posturing and virtue-signaling by rich people is an attempt to get on the right side of the political class that keeps threatening to steal their wealth. If he actually thought that what he did for a living was a bad thing, he’d go do something else. If he actually though that rich people were a problem, he’d get rid of his money. If he actually thought that he wasn’t taxed enough, he’d write a very big check to the U.S. Treasury.

As my agèd granny used to say, ‘Talk’s cheap. Put your money where your mouth is.’

There Are Two Little Problems With “Taxing the Rich” to Pay for “Free Everything”

29th April 2019

Read it.

Here are the two little problems with “taxing the rich” to pay for trillions of dollars in new freebies:
1. Taxing the super-rich won’t really move the needle much when the federal government spends $4.7 trillion annually.
2. Trying to double the taxes they pay from 35% to 70% will only push them to increase their their spending on political adjustments that cost a fraction of the proposed taxes they will pay if they do nothing.

Should Cory Booker Pay Slavery Reparations to Himself?

But if we’re going to launch a commission to study slavery reparations, we should begin with Booker.

Father, Brothers of Sri Lankan Suicide Bombings Mastermind Killed by Police

According to a Reuters report from Friday, among the 15 dead were the father and two brothers of the mastermind of last week’s Easter Sunday bombings, which left 253 dead and another 500 injured. As we reported on Friday, a radical preacher named Zahran Hashim has been identified as the primary architect of the series of bombings at three churches and three luxury hotels. Hashim was a leader of the National Thawheedh Jamaath, and had been arrested over his involvement in the defacing of Buddhist statues. In a series of videos posted to YouTube, the radical Imam had called for violence against all non-believers.

Amazing how that works.

Notice the weaselly blaming of some wayward division of the NY Times? Let’s face it…some editor or editors thought it was just fine, and that speaks volumes about the current (and past) tone at the Times. They hate religion (except Islam), they hate Judaism, they hate Israel, and they withdrew the cartoon not because they realized that it was an out-and-proud example of their Jew-hate, but because they got called out on it.

Blotto O’Rourke: ‘Farm-To-Table Restaurants in Every Community’ Would Solve ‘Food Desert’ Crisis

28th April 2019

Read it.

For those who aren’t familiar with the ‘farm-to-table’ movement, it can best be summed up as a pretentious ‘sustainable’ ‘health-conscious’ movement currently in vogue among wealthy urbanites. It involves serving meals using ingredients directly sourced from small sustainable farms. These meals are typically sold at outrageous prices.

As far as we know, most farm-to-table restaurants don’t accept payment in food stamps.

The Invention of ‘Islamophobia’

28th April 2019

Read it.

The term “Islamophobia” serves a number of functions: it denies the reality of an Islamic offensive in Europe all the better to justify it; it attacks secularism by equating it with fundamentalism. Above all, however, it wants to silence all those Muslims who question the Koran, who demand equality of the sexes, who claim the right to renounce religion, and who want to practice their faith freely and without submitting to the dictates of the bearded and doctrinaire. It follows that young girls are stigmatised for not wearing the veil, as are French, German or English citizens of Maghribi, Turkish, African or Algerian origin who demand the right to religious indifference, the right not to believe in God, the right not to fast during Ramadan. Fingers are pointed at these renegades, they are delivered up to the wrath of their religions communities in order to quash all hope of change among the followers of the Prophet.
