Can someone explain to me how multi-ethnic society isn't doomed to fail when we have morons like this on SCOTUS because of skin color and the presence of a vajayjay? I don't pay taxes so this idiot can tell me what I can and cannot say. This is not sustainable. It does not end well.
No kidding. Her incredible ignorance spilled out of her mouth for all to hear. Except, I'm sure this was never seen on MSDNC, CNN, CBS, NBC, ABC, etc. Most of the people who watch those channels would have just nodded in agreement. What incredible ignorance.
Ah, yes another stunning and brave SCOTUS diversity hire. Who needs to know anything about an experimental transfection agent mandated by the government when you have feeeewings and beautiful brown skin?
This week SCOTUS ruled that officials elected to government cannot block on social media dissenting opinions. How does that square with now, they can just censor them completely?
Easy. According to FANI, without saying a word, BLACK WOMEN with real or fake political power, depending on the mood they are in, (and Grey Goose) can do anything they want to..... and deal with the "white resistance" later..... so, yes, Charlotte, TOTAL censorship is in the air SCOTUS is breathing...... sorry for any typos, I was falling off of my chair from laughing.
I do remember. And am still appalled that Sotomeyer wasnt called out as a lying fool, by her other SCOTUS OR anyone in the larger public eye. Like K-Brown, Soto likes to roost on the wrong side of truth, knowing they will get away with abusing the first amendment when ever they deem it useful. REALLY ABHORRENT BEHAVIOR
Well said and I'm sure plenty of people never batted an eye at this. Everything that was grossly distorted before gets manipulated after the fact to appear fine. It's only the people actually paying attention to the details that notice the sh*t storm.
All the more reason to have dictionaries from before the pandemic. And it makes you wonder...how many other definitions have been changed over the years.
It's not ethnicity. If it were, then Thomas would fall into the crack you are describing. Remember, the dems wanted the moron Garland in that crack, too.
We agree. Marxist dems want you to hate black people and women because it destabilizes society. So when people ID and disparage someone like Jackson by her gender or color instead of her ideology, they are falling into the trap.
I don't hate blacks, but I am learning to hate a large number of women. They seem particularly susceptible to things like wokeness and censorship... Not just credulously swallowing propaganda (without ever seeming to learn anything), but moralizing the shit out of every single issue all the time.
None of this would be happening if they were not so subject to groupthink and moral panics. Social media took women's worst attributes and put them on steroids.
I suspect you are a sane woman, so no offense, but I'm exhausted with pretending it's not a problem.
Kari Lake? Winsome Sears? Carol Swain? Marsha Blackburn? Please attend a Republican Women's group in your area. Social media and MSM took every liberal's worst attributes and put them on steroids, and then censored and smeared conservatives. ALL conservatives.
Yeah, but take a look at the FIRE poll about attitudes towards free speech men vs women. Women as a group are far more censorious, presumably because of how they exhibit aggression - gossip and slander.
Also, as a consequence of this, many women are incapable of understanding when verbal aggression crosses the line into violence. Men are more familiar with violence (generally) and are more supportive of working things out rationally before it escalates to that.

Somewhat recently, the concept of "validating feelings" was introduced to me and it clicked... There's no objective to a lot of what women do. When they say they want "more women", there's no success criteria. There's no stop condition. They literally have no goal when they bring identity politics into work.
I'm really, really sick of it. Yes, conservative women do exist, and I'm happy for that, but as a group, women create serious problems when they involve themselves in goal oriented affairs.
You're arguing that women be treated as individuals, and that I'm buying into the Marxist group idea, and I understand your point. But honestly, how are men supposed to deal with this, other than viewing women with skepticism? It only takes one of the "believe all women" crowd to wreck my (or any other man's) life. Why would I want to subject myself to that?
I am convinced that WE will have to resort to more strenuous methods of 'communication' in order to reach the pea-sized brains of some of our members of SCOTUS. That is a long and tiresome project. KITMANGEY BROWN does not surprise me with her 'half-wit angry black woman crap' as I live in Georgia, Land of "gimme a reeson why I hafta obey da law eff I think its stoopid". When TRUMP is re-elected this fall, we can then work differently in "chanaging the minds of ignorants and morons" who wrongly believe that they own us...'jus becuzz'. I do not know how several SCOTUS members were allowed to join this once highly honored and astute group, but I remain hopeful that AGAIN, President Trump, will know how to easily and quickly adjust this situation, possibly to have 8 or 9 of them REMOVED to a new location, such as GITMO, where they can quietly discuss their errors in judgment to the end of time.
Thank you for your post; I especially LOVE your talented cat, as I have one who loves the internet also. Best entertainment around, everyone should have a CAT; they are so very intelligent, fun, and polite. Have a wonderful, happy day!
Ryan, I wish that were a thing. I am a gun owner and I think 2A essentially IS the constitution, but as Gato said, leftists think the Constitution is just a nuisance; something to pay lip service to while circumventing it at every turn. I am sure they consider it an artifact of the white patriarchy or something. They have made it a dead letter. While I am sure many gun owners would actively protect their families if directly threatened by bad guys, who are you gonna shoot as your liberties are slowly being eroded? Hell, in 2020 governors, the president, the CDC etc. shut our businesses down, forced masks on us, and ruined countless lives and livelihoods, and we all bent over and said "thank you sir may I have another?" Not one gun was lifted. I don't have the answer, but I get frustrated by fellow conservatives who make a lot of noise but continue to let the left walk all over them.
No. If it is initiated by 2A advocates, it's a loss. It needs to be initiated by the ethnic minorities poisoned by the political left. Make woke and "diverse" environments too physically dangerous for white liberals, and show white liberals forceful but nonviolent hostility in more "homogenous" environments.
You can't tell me the same people who put crack in the inner cities, created the 2 tier racist prison industrial complex, coming out of J.Edgar Hoover's ideal of "No more black messiahs," now suddenly actually want black people to succeed and rule. Flannery O'Connor, in Wiseblood, had her protagonist say "Jesus is a trick on n-words," and we might replace "Jesus" with "DIE and CRT" (as well as updating the other vernacular) When Tucker interviewed the author of Mao's America, he asked her how the Cultural Revolution started and ended. Apparently, at an elite young women's school in Bejing, the girls beat the principal to death, and the violence and mayhem persisted for 3 or so more years, whereupon Mao sent the hysterical, boundariless, brainwashed, bloodlust-filled Red Guards to "re-education" where they died. The diverse brainwashed puppets smugly advocating global socialist utopia, Year Zero, blank slate brains and fluid biologies, parroting their handlers, may actually believe they are among the chosen, but my suspicion is that they'll be subject to the Mao option, or perhaps meet the fate of the Sonderkommando https://freespoke.com/search/web?q=Sonderkommando&utm_source=firefox_omnibar. I am actually cheered here in Detroit by the comments sections under any MSM propaganda that mentions diseases and vaccines, showing that Kendi and D'Angelo and their ilk are not penetrating all communities, hurray!
Personally, I think the vax mandates should be personalized, racialized, and moralized. I think the white liberals that support people like Brown and Sotomayor should be made the target of the ethnic violence they love so much.
That, not putting up with woke shit in the workplace (even if it means getting fired), and preparing myself for when it all falls apart - which it will. That's about all I can do. Unless you have more suggestions.
Might one remind you that the American 'Indians' didn't ask for an invasion of 'your country' by European land-thieves and the consequent dictatorial multi-ethnic societies forced upon them. I'm sure that the American-Indians would be more than happy for the Europeans to return from whence they came. Waddyareckon aye? So, from your-high horse, jaundiced perspective ... what exactly constitutes an acceptable version of a 'multi-ethnic' society?
An invariably, self-congratulatory, jaundiced view of historical truths, is prefaced with all manner of manure and fraught with self-serving p latitudinal hogwash, bathed in whitewashed text-book manure. Conditioning can present such a bugger of a hurdle to negotiate ...
Next thing is one might be encouraged to assume that this paid-troll of a 'judge' quite obviously serving the interests of the barbarians-in-suits, to be a protege of her ethnicity, which would or should be counter-intuitive. She is to all intents and purposes, a paid-servant of the bankster-class and bears NO resemblance, other than complexion, to the people she is supposed to represent. In my book, she is quite obviously a high-class pimp for the swamp-creatures.
KBJ doesn’t know what a woman is, or the first amendment. She is an intersectionality shield for the regime like Kamala and KJP. DIE uber alles, including free speech. I for one welcome our future Google Gemini Supreme Court. Lawfare is turning our judicial system into show trials and kangaroo courts: https://yuribezmenov.substack.com/p/lawfare-65-project-democracy-docket-marc-elias
She’s not a biologist! How could she know what a woman is? Leave that to the experts.
Ultimately, she doesn’t need to know anything. She isn’t there for any reason other than her gender and race. This was stated explicitly by the administration that nominated her. “A woman of color” was the sole criteria given for their pick.
And yet she got her position precisely because she is female and dark skinned. Her reasoning here demonstrates it was not for an intellectually acute judicial temperament.
the doc I went to last year did not know what a woman is. And she is one herself too. Very difficult to trust that kind of people (she is of Indian origin)
oh she won't ever see me again LOL. My old doc retired and I am now hearing around. This was the closest by, so I tried my luck. Not a very lucky choice, obviously!
Thank You for the reminder of how this once honored agency turned into crap so easily. I believe that next year WE are going to have a lot of FUN! ...GITMO will be bursting at the seams with a new batch of prisoners, all lined up for their Military Tribunals and Last Day of Life on Earth. WE will have a PRESIDENT who Handles our Business According to our ORIGINAL LAWS AND CONSTITUTION.
If they keep censoring long enough the meanings will be inverse...or worse no antonym or synonym.
To eliminate nuance gives the ruler the power of the word to make the rules on what can and can not be said; imprecision is precisely how the totalitarian uses words to name the enemy
After reading Ryan's "no opposite of defenestration" I've been scouring the intertubes for 20 minutes (I mean, what's government funding for, after all) for videos of, as you've nicely named it, refenestration.
The windows don't always have glass! European castles just had open spaces for a long time. I'm envisioning throwing the body back where it came from. Not that that would happen. But your claim was provocative.
defenestration is a word because people used to throw a lot of stuff (including slop and excrement) out of windows. little was thrown in, so we did not develop a word.
there are lost of words that have a negative but no positive.
This whole thread made me feel so much better. I was actually nauseous last night after reading the SCOTUS bull crap. I honestly had a hard time sleeping. Thanks you all! ❤️
It can either mean that you are against defenestration, or you are throwing the object back up through the window. In the case of a person thrown up to a window at a significant height during the Renaissance, it would require a catapult of sorts.
Anyone who wants to take away your right to speak always has something to hide. If they didn't, they would welcome open debate. When open debate is censored/shut down, something is very, very wrong. Freedom of speech is the most basic right and the right which causes all others to fall if taken away. All across history, the censors were never the good guys.
Nailed it! the PERFECT DEMOCRAT. MORONS ARE SO IGNORANT, YOU CANNOT GET A COHERENT RESPONSE ON ANY SUBJECT FROM ONE OF THEM, SO THEIR AIM IS TO BE USELESS.
All she will ever be is the first black woman appointed to the court for DEI reasons. That is not something I would be proud of TBH. Where is the achievement? It's sad for everyone.
'ACHIEVEMENT' is part of the job? Stephenie, you have just sent most of SCOTUS directly to GITMO!!!! THANK YOU, BUT.... that may mean YOU are in charge now!
The only purpose SCOTUS serves is to decide whether or not a law or act is Constitutional.
It's one thing for a non-biologist to not be able to even colloquial define woman (especially seeing as being a woman one of her key qualifications for this sinecure https://youtu.be/0JNO0TBbpSc?si=Mfn6AZc4Y_Hgv7yF)
But it's entirely another thing for a trained legal scholar, one who's been appointed to the highest bench in the land, to not be able to properly understand "Congress shall make no law respecting... abridging the freedom of speech."
Hamstringing the Government is the entire f#@&ing point of 1A.
I am Certain they may be capable of reading; however, THEY DO NOT TAKE THE TIME TO ACTUALLY READ ANY OF THESE IMPORTANT AMENDMENTS. The crap that comes out now is evidence of that.
I suspect they are, like most other political appointees, selected from the somewhat shallow pool of party loyalists. Chosen, above all, for party loyalty. Competence, if it is considered at all, is very, very low on the list of criteria.
HI Andy in BC! You are correct! The "Competence pool is very shallow, but perfect for childish Temper Tatrums, Screaming and Loud Fussing and Fuming, when a normal "indoor voice" would work wonders... so, it has become the Baby Democrat Pool. Votes for our U.S, Constitution will make a very welcome change in November! Fingers are crossed and Prayers are being said, for a Return to Normal. Wea re hopeful and positive!
One has to consider the possibility that those representing "our side" don't actually believe what we believe about rights, and want to make sure the power exists when they wield the whip hand. Everyone says "oh Republicans so stupid, go speed limit, never accomplish anything," because they think the Rs are some kind of opposition. This is a mistake. They may be stupid, but they are just as venal and corrupt as the Ds. One big club, as the man said.
But now that Oregon and Washington have eliminated the bar exam, we can look forward to more "justice" from the likes of KJB.
The biggest issue is that it's not technically government induced censorship when the platforms doing the censoring are on the same team as the biden regime. They wanted to do all this, because they are the regime. They are indistinguishable from each other.
You'd almost be better off with the Supreme Court (all of whom still believe the covid hoax) by attempting to prove that facebook, Google, Amazon, and historical Twitter IS the federal government and not private companies and that any act in which they restrict free speech is government censorship.
If I hate anything it's human weakness (in myself as much as anyone else). Succumbing to social pressure to act like a tyrant, no existential principles, just ideological self-righteousness, or sheepish compliance.
Like I said elsewhere - they're truly just not number people.
Like when they suggested that bump stocks could enable the shooter to get off 800 rounds a minute without that number setting off the first hint of "Wait - that's, like *finger finger toe carry the 1* 13 rounds a second. Can that be for real?" which should be considered at least a minimal requirement if you're going to meaningfully pass judgment.
It's been reported they all did. I confirm for certain, but you can glean their views about the plandemic pretty clearly to assume they all did. Even Alito and Thomas.
KIMANGEY BROWN showed all of us exactly who she was from her first ridiculous idiotic sentence. It is definitely TIME OUT PERIOD for that one..... her??? him???? it???? apparently NOT a woman.
it really beyond belief. She doesnt understand the very thing that literally defines the US and the core principle underpinning Western civ, the magna carta, etc... is the right of an individual to speak and think what they want without fear . She had no idea ... literally no concept of this. For her to say something like that... beggars belief. Its not surprising really. PPL still give the SCOTUS respect. But ALL of our public institutions are failures and scotus is the biggest failure of all.
Justice Brown’s view is a direct result of 60+ years of the Marxist assault on the nuclear family. I don’t know what her personal background is, but the welfare state that destroyed the black American family has convinced three generations that the government is responsible for providing for you and keeping you safe, not your parents. In that world, when you weigh the right of the individual to speak freely against the “responsibility” of the government to keep you safe, it seems heartless to advocate for the individual. What about all those people who will be hurt, you bunch of selfish meanies who think your speech is more important than all the grandmas who will die if they don’t take this shot? Grandma can’t make up her own mind don’t you know? And that’s where we are.
We literally had someone on the "highest court in the land" showing that this Country is doomed.
5months, 5years, 50years, not a matter of if but when.
When she spewed out that the 1st Amendment was bad because it could hamstring the Government from censoring info it deemed "harmful", I almost shit my pants. THAT IS THE WHOLE POINT!!!
I can't think of a more perfect example of our downfall than that exchange from KBJ.
BUT, that's exactly why she was put there.
1/3 to 1/2 of this Country agrees with her, because they think they'll always be on the correct side of the Freedom Fence. Idiots, all of them. Little do they know, the Freedom Fence or Circle of Freedom only gets smaller, it only contracts. At some point, you are on the wrong side. It never fails, EVER.
Now what does "doomed" mean. Civil War? Divorce? States just ignoring Fed Law/Judiciary? Well that last one is already going on, Blue States have been doing that for years and years now.
The extremes in this Country have ZERO common ground anymore, and that's where our institutions stand at this point. It's FUBAR.
All Empires end, ours is no different or special.
The reality is, things could be so amazing around the World, BUT...
We have psychopaths and sociopaths running this Country, and the World for that matter.
They are drawn to Government, for obvious reasons. That is a HUGE problem.
That's why, even though elections are rigged, it doesn't matter. We aren't just an election or two away from fixing any of this. The rot is everywhere and unfixable. A full gut rehab is needed.
If your ideas are good, you don't need coercion or censorship or force to sell them, they just sell themselves. It's quite simple. You don't need to lie to people, you don't need to quash other viewpoints. When you tell someone to not run into traffic on a highway, they listen. The idea and suggestion is a clear winner. I don't need to silence some other clown telling you that cars crashing into you won't hurt you.
Lastly, I don't know how to comprehend any of this anymore. Maybe it's because so many have lost any type of religion or spiritual guidance. I look around and see so much chaos, it's mind-boggling. I just do not understand.
The whole "most people are good", I don't know about that. Prove it to me, because I don't see it. I see evil and selfishness everywhere.
I might be an asshole at times, but that isn't a reflection of my values. If anything, my asshole-ness comes because of all the evil I see. At times, I wish I was a NPC, ignorance is bliss must be an amazing stress-free way to live life. :/
Right there with you Jerky Boy. Sometimes I long for the happier days of having my head up my ass. But alas, I can’t unsee what I’ve witnessed in the last five years and that youthful notion of “greatest country ever” is so far in my rear view mirror I can no longer see it.
The Hawaii Supreme Court recently said (paraphrased) "the US Constitution doesn't apply in Hawaii" in a 2A case. Instead, "the scriptwriters for 'The Wire' are our guiding light."
"HONOLULU — A ruling by Hawaii's high court saying that a man can be prosecuted for carrying a gun in public without a permit cites crime-drama TV series "The Wire" and invokes the "spirit of Aloha" in an apparent rebuke of a U.S. Supreme Court decision that expanded gun rights nationwide.
"The thing about the old days, they the old days," the unanimous Hawaii Supreme Court ruling issued Wednesday said, borrowing a quote from season four, episode three of the HBO series to express that the culture from the founding of the country shouldn't dictate contemporary life.
Authored by Justice Todd Eddins, the opinion goes on to say, "The spirit of Aloha clashes with a federally-mandated lifestyle that lets citizens walk around with deadly weapons during day-to-day activities.""
When Obama said the Constitution was a "document of negative liberties", I knew we were F#^ked. This asshat and his administration would just figure out "work-arounds" to the Bill of Rights, so they could do what they wanted. Screw the people and their freedom.
"We have psychopaths and sociopaths running this Country, and the World for that matter."
And unfortunately we can’t vote them out because we never voted them in. Congress doesn’t even write bills anymore. The lobbyists do and congress just votes on them without having time to read what’s in them. Massie explained that during the 1st year of Covid.
I read a summary of yesterday's SCOTUS activity on this case that said SCOTUS was admonishing the plaintiffs because they hadn't shown the harm that was done to them by the government's efforts to suppress speech.
While I think this is off-track (as GM explained so well, they should be addressing the infringements of rights not worrying about proving harm), I think the plaintiffs need to attack the claim that the wrong information can harm people. Make the government prove that information is DIRECTLY harmful to people.
Information by itself can do no harm. Information is just words and images that are processed by people. People then decide what they will do with that information. Absorb it, ignore it, talk about it with friends, whatever. There can be no possible harm until the person takes action. Any harm is thus the responsibility of the person taking in the information, not on the purveyor of the information.
If we can blow up the claim that information is harmful to people, the justification for censorship falls apart.
I listened to the whole thing live yesterday and was astonished by the very same thing. "Where's the harm?" was the gist of way too much questioning. This pertains to "standing" I gather, which seems to be legalese for "we don't want to touch this with a 10-foot pole."
I am regretting my snarky question above; but we are tribal animals and I am concerned that the temptation to do too little will be too strong. We have come a long way since Snyder v. Phelps.
Can someone explain to me how multi-ethnic society isn't doomed to fail when we have morons like this on SCOTUS because of skin color and the presence of a vajayjay? I don't pay taxes so this idiot can tell me what I can and cannot say. This is not sustainable. It does not end well.
Remember when Sotomayor claimed over 100k children died from c19?
That's the true power of censorship.
No kidding. Her incredible ignorance spilled out of her mouth for all to hear. Except, I'm sure this was never seen on MSDNC, CNN, CBS, NBC, ABC, etc. Most of the people who watch those channels would have just nodded in agreement. What incredible ignorance.
Exactly. That was the real reason for the censorship
Ah, yes another stunning and brave SCOTUS diversity hire. Who needs to know anything about an experimental transfection agent mandated by the government when you have feeeewings and beautiful brown skin?
Yeah...we need to gOvERn hArDeR because we have a kidapocalypse on our hands.
This week SCOTUS ruled that officials elected to government cannot block on social media dissenting opinions. How does that square with now, they can just censor them completely?
Easy easy. Can't block them, so just make a call and have them deleted.
Easy. According to FANI, without saying a word, BLACK WOMEN with real or fake political power, depending on the mood they are in, (and Grey Goose) can do anything they want to..... and deal with the "white resistance" later..... so, yes, Charlotte, TOTAL censorship is in the air SCOTUS is breathing...... sorry for any typos, I was falling off of my chair from laughing.
I do remember. And am still appalled that Sotomeyer wasnt called out as a lying fool, by her other SCOTUS OR anyone in the larger public eye. Like K-Brown, Soto likes to roost on the wrong side of truth, knowing they will get away with abusing the first amendment when ever they deem it useful. REALLY ABHORRENT BEHAVIOR
"Remember when Sotomayor"
They're not Numbers People, Ryan. They're more wordy and stuff.
and they have removed the rule that says their words have to make sense.... so.... we are back to s
It's to eliminate history.
For example how many people know that the definition of herd immunity and vaccine were changed in the still of the night?
They seek to eliminate history by eliminating reference
Well said and I'm sure plenty of people never batted an eye at this. Everything that was grossly distorted before gets manipulated after the fact to appear fine. It's only the people actually paying attention to the details that notice the sh*t storm.
All the more reason to have dictionaries from before the pandemic. And it makes you wonder...how many other definitions have been changed over the years.
https://thenationaltelegraph.com/national/canadian-crown-corporations-coerced-employees-with-fake-vaccine-mandate/
Exactly
the Amish knew. and prevailed. simple common sense
Conquest's 3rd Law of Politics:
"The behavior of any bureaucratic organization can best be understood by
assuming that it is controlled by a secret cabal of its enemies."
In other words, everything's going according to plan.
I’m always shaking my head when I hear someone say “the government is broken.” No it’s not sweetie, it’s working exactly as planned.
Kazackly
They still claim that "millions of children are infected with Covid" and that their whole lives will be mired in chronic conditions.
head-exploding level of ignorance and bias. those bitches have no business being on ANY bench, much less SCOTUS
Sotomayor displaying a deep ignorance of facts germaine to a case has become a meme.
It's like she doesn't even read the brief or something?
I don't think she has the capacity to read above 10th grade level. I'm serious
I imagine her lounging on a coach, being fed grapes while lackeys give her the TL:DR, but they're too corrupt to give an honest briefing.
Jaba the hutt
We remember, and still wonder where that 'person' came from.... ????
It's not ethnicity. If it were, then Thomas would fall into the crack you are describing. Remember, the dems wanted the moron Garland in that crack, too.
It's marxist progressivism.
Yeah, but Thomas is qualified. He just happens to be black. They also used identity politics against him, accusing him of rape, IIRC.
We agree. Marxist dems want you to hate black people and women because it destabilizes society. So when people ID and disparage someone like Jackson by her gender or color instead of her ideology, they are falling into the trap.
I don't hate blacks, but I am learning to hate a large number of women. They seem particularly susceptible to things like wokeness and censorship... Not just credulously swallowing propaganda (without ever seeming to learn anything), but moralizing the shit out of every single issue all the time.
None of this would be happening if they were not so subject to groupthink and moral panics. Social media took women's worst attributes and put them on steroids.
I suspect you are a sane woman, so no offense, but I'm exhausted with pretending it's not a problem.

Exercising 2A is a pretty effective way to communicate....just sayin'....;=]
Ryan, I wish that were a thing.

No. If it is initiated by 2A advocates, it's a loss. It needs to be initiated by the ethnic minorities poisoned by the political left. Make woke and "diverse" environments too physically dangerous for white liberals, and show white liberals forceful but nonviolent hostility in more "homogenous" environments.
Agree
I thought here in Georgia we are in the "Land of the Walking Dead."
As far as the election goes, I have very little faith it will do anything.
We need more Cats in the Supreme Court and investigative reporting. Hail Cats.
When 45 is re-elected then we can prune the idiots who assume their power is invincible as they wake up in a 3 am sweat.
Trump won't be back . Thanks for handing Biden the election
Lysenkoism was born of this.

Flannery O'Connor, in Wiseblood, had her protagonist say "Jesus is a trick on n-words," and we might replace "Jesus" with "DIE and CRT" (as well as updating the other vernacular) When Tucker interviewed the author of Mao's America, he asked her how the Cultural Revolution started and ended. Apparently, at an elite young women's school in Bejing, the girls beat the principal to death, and the violence and mayhem persisted for 3 or so more years, whereupon Mao sent the hysterical, boundariless, brainwashed, bloodlust-filled Red Guards to "re-education" where they died. The diverse brainwashed puppets smugly advocating global socialist utopia, Year Zero, blank slate brains and fluid biologies, parroting their handlers, may actually believe they are among the chosen, but my suspicion is that they'll be subject to the Mao option, or perhaps meet the fate of the Sonderkommando https://freespoke.com/search/web?q=Sonderkommando&utm_source=firefox_omnibar. I am actually cheered here in Detroit by the comments sections under any MSM propaganda that mentions diseases and vaccines, showing that Kendi and D'Angelo and their ilk are not penetrating all communities, hurray!
When I saw veejayjay I immediately thought "She was a commentator on MTV?"
Or as the great hero of our time "The Dude" stated "This aggression will not stand, standing peeing person who does not put down the toilet seat."
WHACHA gonna do about it?
Personally, I think the vax mandates should be personalized, racialized, and moralized. I think the white liberals that support people like Brown and Sotomayor should be made the target of the ethnic violence they love so much.
That, not putting up with woke shit in the workplace (even if it means getting fired), and preparing myself for when it all falls apart - which it will. That's about all I can do. Unless you have more suggestions.
True!

Your latent racism exposes your wilful-ignorance.
Might one remind you that the American 'Indians' didn't ask for an invasion of 'your country' by European land-thieves and the consequent dictatorial multi-ethnic societies forced upon them. I'm sure that the American-Indians would be more than happy for the Europeans to return from whence they came. Waddyareckon aye? So, from your-high horse, jaundiced perspective ... what exactly constitutes an acceptable version of a 'multi-ethnic' society?
An invariably, self-congratulatory, jaundiced view of historical truths, is prefaced with all manner of manure and fraught with self-serving p latitudinal hogwash, bathed in whitewashed text-book manure. Conditioning can present such a bugger of a hurdle to negotiate ...
Next thing is one might be encouraged to assume that this paid-troll of a 'judge' quite obviously serving the interests of the barbarians-in-suits, to be a protege of her ethnicity, which would or should be counter-intuitive. She is to all intents and purposes, a paid-servant of the bankster-class and bears NO resemblance, other than complexion, to the people she is supposed to represent. In my book, she is quite obviously a high-class pimp for the swamp-creatures.
Well, I'm glad you hate her as much as I do, Kunta Kinte.
KBJ doesn’t know what a woman is, or the first amendment. She is an intersectionality shield for the regime like Kamala and KJP. DIE uber alles, including free speech. I for one welcome our future Google Gemini Supreme Court. Lawfare is turning our judicial system into show trials and kangaroo courts: https://yuribezmenov.substack.com/p/lawfare-65-project-democracy-docket-marc-elias
She’s not a biologist! How could she know what a woman is? Leave that to the experts.
Ultimately, she doesn’t need to know anything. She isn’t there for any reason other than her gender and race. This was stated explicitly by the administration that nominated her. “A woman of color” was the sole criteria given for their pick.
And yet she got her position precisely because she is female and dark skinned. Her reasoning here demonstrates it was not for an intellectually acute judicial temperament.
the doc I went to last year did not know what a woman is. And she is one herself too. Very difficult to trust that kind of people (she is of Indian origin)
Maybe she also thinks a tumor can identify as a benign lump. I'd switch doctors if I were you.
oh she won't ever see me again LOL. My old doc retired and I am now hearing around. This was the closest by, so I tried my luck. Not a very lucky choice, obviously!
I am starting to believe there are only a handful of real doctors left. The majority are shills for big pharma/big brother.
Thank You for the reminder of how this once honored agency turned into crap so easily. I believe that next year WE are going to have a lot of FUN! ...GITMO will be bursting at the seams with a new batch of prisoners, all lined up for their Military Tribunals and Last Day of Life on Earth. WE will have a PRESIDENT who Handles our Business According to our ORIGINAL LAWS AND CONSTITUTION.
Spot on. I'm gonna like me any post that uses both miscegenation and defenestration.
Never forget 1A is just as important for the listener.
For every person they silence a thousand can not hear.
Draw a picture of that and it's worth a thousand words.
That's what they're after.
Me eldest is OBSESSED with defenestration. She shouts it out every time it comes up. And when you start looking for it, it comes up A LOT.
It's the only word in the English language without an antonym.
Here's another tidbit of language trivia:
What is the longest word in the English language with only one vowel?
Hint it's something we're all going to need in these times.
seems like there are lots of words without antonyms.
what, for example, is the antonym of "carrot" or "nematode."
What I want to know is how did nematode emerge in your brain as an example?!...lol...of all things
Dang it I meant synonym
Meh. Same thing.
If they keep censoring long enough the meanings will be inverse...or worse no antonym or synonym.
To eliminate nuance gives the ruler the power of the word to make the rules on what can and can not be said; imprecision is precisely how the totalitarian uses words to name the enemy
Well I guess unique too
Take out the animal kingdom and food.
No fun!
but also, why can't refenestration be a thing?
After reading Ryan's "no opposite of defenestration" I've been scouring the intertubes for 20 minutes (I mean, what's government funding for, after all) for videos of, as you've nicely named it, refenestration.
It does not appear to be a thing.
So why not "make it so"?
If the left can deliberately, with malice aforethought, redefine half of the bloody dictionary, why can't the (relatively) sane do the same?
I shall make it so.
I don't know. Maybe because if you throw something out a window you can't repair the glass by throwing them back through?
But if it were an odious bureaucrat I'd try to defy reality
Is "odious bureaucrat" not a bit redundant?
And once the odious creature has successfully been defenestrated, why on earth would one ever want to toss it back? Even to fix the window?
Asking for a friend.
The windows don't always have glass! European castles just had open spaces for a long time. I'm envisioning throwing the body back where it came from. Not that that would happen. But your claim was provocative.
defenestration is a word because people used to throw a lot of stuff (including slop and excrement) out of windows. little was thrown in, so we did not develop a word.
there are lost of words that have a negative but no positive.
gormless.
i've never seen gorm or gormful as a positive.
Alright I'm going to shut up now
..;(
only on film I guess, when you turn it backwards
ha ha ha
This whole thread made me feel so much better. I was actually nauseous last night after reading the SCOTUS bull crap. I honestly had a hard time sleeping. Thanks you all! ❤️
how about antidefenestration?
That's anti-physics Kertch!
It can either mean that you are against defenestration, or you are throwing the object back up through the window. In the case of a person thrown up to a window at a significant height during the Renaissance, it would require a catapult of sorts.

here's a hard one:
what's the longest english word that is all vowels?
6 letters.
Euouae. It also has the most consecutive vowels

Dang it I forgot the S
"The Second Amendment is just in case the first one doesn't work out."

Well it might be time to "break glass"....;)
Four years past time, says I.
Well said, Ryan.
Yep. "To suppress free speech is a double wrong. It violates the rights of the hearer as well as those of the speaker." Frederick Douglass
Anyone who wants to take away your right to speak always has something to hide. If they didn't, they would welcome open debate. When open debate is censored/shut down, something is very, very wrong. Freedom of speech is the most basic right and the right which causes all others to fall if taken away. All across history, the censors were never the good guys.
Justice DEI has no business being on SCOTUS.
Great post, gato.
Why aren’t YOU arguing in front of the Supreme Court?!? Our odds might improve…
i tried but no one could explain to ketanji brown "what a cat is."
sigh.
Well, she's not a zoologist.
LOL! WHAT is She, EXACTLY????
"Qualified"
a bag of meat, obviously.
Isn't it whatever the federal government says it is? Like the Constitution, it's all fluid.
The Constitution is supposed to be changeable, but only via Amendments.
The idea of the Constitution is pretty simple:
1. List all the powers of the federal government.
2. Make sure to say that ALL THE OTHER POWERS BELONG TO THE STATES AND THE PEOPLE.
That's it, really.
For what, exactly?
This Ketanji chick can't even define a woman. She is the new perfect democrat: A fcking useful MORON
Nailed it! the PERFECT DEMOCRAT. MORONS ARE SO IGNORANT, YOU CANNOT GET A COHERENT RESPONSE ON ANY SUBJECT FROM ONE OF THEM, SO THEIR AIM IS TO BE USELESS.
Thanks Gayle. The way I see it (and I’m right, by the way) KJB is the exact same DEI hire that has worked out so well for Boeing and United.
All she will ever be is the first black woman appointed to the court for DEI reasons. That is not something I would be proud of TBH. Where is the achievement? It's sad for everyone.
'ACHIEVEMENT' is part of the job? Stephenie, you have just sent most of SCOTUS directly to GITMO!!!! THANK YOU, BUT.... that may mean YOU are in charge now!
see, sad for everyone.
The only purpose SCOTUS serves is to decide whether or not a law or act is Constitutional.
It's one thing for a non-biologist to not be able to even colloquial define woman (especially seeing as being a woman one of her key qualifications for this sinecure https://youtu.be/0JNO0TBbpSc?si=Mfn6AZc4Y_Hgv7yF)
But it's entirely another thing for a trained legal scholar, one who's been appointed to the highest bench in the land, to not be able to properly understand "Congress shall make no law respecting... abridging the freedom of speech."
Hamstringing the Government is the entire f#@&ing point of 1A.
"the entire f#@&ing point of 1A"
Preach it brother!
THANK YOU!
It would be nice if a Supreme Court Justice actually understood the First Amendment.
It would be nice if a supreme court "justice" could read the amendments. 🙄
(Just being snotty. I'm sure it can read.)
I am Certain they may be capable of reading; however, THEY DO NOT TAKE THE TIME TO ACTUALLY READ ANY OF THESE IMPORTANT AMENDMENTS. The crap that comes out now is evidence of that.
Could also be lack of comprehension, too.
Definitely! and isn't that a shock, and also sad and ridiculous! Where do these "people" come from?
I suspect they are, like most other political appointees, selected from the somewhat shallow pool of party loyalists. Chosen, above all, for party loyalty. Competence, if it is considered at all, is very, very low on the list of criteria.
You forgot race and sex, too.
HI Andy in BC! You are correct! The "Competence pool is very shallow, but perfect for childish Temper Tatrums, Screaming and Loud Fussing and Fuming, when a normal "indoor voice" would work wonders... so, it has become the Baby Democrat Pool. Votes for our U.S, Constitution will make a very welcome change in November! Fingers are crossed and Prayers are being said, for a Return to Normal. Wea re hopeful and positive!
Jupiter? 😉😊😋
Sounds about right. Neptune is waaaaay out there... hmmmm... too costly to send 'them back.... GITMO will have to do.
One has to consider the possibility that those representing "our side" don't actually believe what we believe about rights, and want to make sure the power exists when they wield the whip hand. Everyone says "oh Republicans so stupid, go speed limit, never accomplish anything," because they think the Rs are some kind of opposition. This is a mistake. They may be stupid, but they are just as venal and corrupt as the Ds. One big club, as the man said.
But now that Oregon and Washington have eliminated the bar exam, we can look forward to more "justice" from the likes of KJB.
"One has to consider the possibility that those representing "our side" don't actually believe what we believe about rights"
So you're saying maybe there should be some sort of "In Name Only" tag for people like that. *rubs chin thoughtfully*
The biggest issue is that it's not technically government induced censorship when the platforms doing the censoring are on the same team as the biden regime. They wanted to do all this, because they are the regime. They are indistinguishable from each other.
You'd almost be better off with the Supreme Court (all of whom still believe the covid hoax) by attempting to prove that facebook, Google, Amazon, and historical Twitter IS the federal government and not private companies and that any act in which they restrict free speech is government censorship.
Did you notice not one other SCOTUS member corrected Sotomayor when she claimed 100k children died from c19?
I wonder why....perhaps fear?
I think they all believed the lie...
They were all covidians.
Bingo. Fear itself. The fear of being wrong. And the fear of social tyranny
If I hate anything it's human weakness (in myself as much as anyone else). Succumbing to social pressure to act like a tyrant, no existential principles, just ideological self-righteousness, or sheepish compliance.
I've seen cockroaches with more honor.
Perfectly stated
Maybe the 9-0 verdict a week or so ago riled the libtard mob so much that the libtard justices feel the heat now
Moreso, the weak "moderates" like Kavanaugh and coney Barrett. You'll likely see a 7-2 or 6-3 ruling against the 1st amendment in this case.
Terrifying times...
Yeah...who wants to get epsteined?...:)
"The first duty of man is to conquer fear." Thomas Carlyle
Like I said elsewhere - they're truly just not number people.
Like when they suggested that bump stocks could enable the shooter to get off 800 rounds a minute without that number setting off the first hint of "Wait - that's, like *finger finger toe carry the 1* 13 rounds a second. Can that be for real?" which should be considered at least a minimal requirement if you're going to meaningfully pass judgment.
I wonder if any of them got the covid shots. They weren't mandated.
It's been reported they all did. I confirm for certain, but you can glean their views about the plandemic pretty clearly to assume they all did. Even Alito and Thomas.
I had to stop listening 🙉
♡♡♡ THIS 🤯♡♡♡
chilling and disgrace scary heartbreaking to say the least. Katanji brown is a clueless moron. Clearly an idiotic half wit diversity hire
KIMANGEY BROWN showed all of us exactly who she was from her first ridiculous idiotic sentence. It is definitely TIME OUT PERIOD for that one..... her??? him???? it???? apparently NOT a woman.
it really beyond belief. She doesnt understand the very thing that literally defines the US and the core principle underpinning Western civ, the magna carta, etc... is the right of an individual to speak and think what they want without fear . She had no idea ... literally no concept of this. For her to say something like that... beggars belief. Its not surprising really. PPL still give the SCOTUS respect. But ALL of our public institutions are failures and scotus is the biggest failure of all.
Justice Brown’s view is a direct result of 60+ years of the Marxist assault on the nuclear family. I don’t know what her personal background is, but the welfare state that destroyed the black American family has convinced three generations that the government is responsible for providing for you and keeping you safe, not your parents. In that world, when you weigh the right of the individual to speak freely against the “responsibility” of the government to keep you safe, it seems heartless to advocate for the individual. What about all those people who will be hurt, you bunch of selfish meanies who think your speech is more important than all the grandmas who will die if they don’t take this shot? Grandma can’t make up her own mind don’t you know? And that’s where we are.
Nailed it
We literally had someone on the "highest court in the land" showing that this Country is doomed.
5months, 5years, 50years, not a matter of if but when.
When she spewed out that the 1st Amendment was bad because it could hamstring the Government from censoring info it deemed "harmful", I almost shit my pants. THAT IS THE WHOLE POINT!!!
I can't think of a more perfect example of our downfall than that exchange from KBJ.
BUT, that's exactly why she was put there.
1/3 to 1/2 of this Country agrees with her, because they think they'll always be on the correct side of the Freedom Fence. Idiots, all of them. Little do they know, the Freedom Fence or Circle of Freedom only gets smaller, it only contracts. At some point, you are on the wrong side. It never fails, EVER.
Now what does "doomed" mean. Civil War? Divorce? States just ignoring Fed Law/Judiciary? Well that last one is already going on, Blue States have been doing that for years and years now.
The extremes in this Country have ZERO common ground anymore, and that's where our institutions stand at this point. It's FUBAR.
All Empires end, ours is no different or special.
The reality is, things could be so amazing around the World, BUT...
We have psychopaths and sociopaths running this Country, and the World for that matter.
They are drawn to Government, for obvious reasons. That is a HUGE problem.
That's why, even though elections are rigged, it doesn't matter. We aren't just an election or two away from fixing any of this. The rot is everywhere and unfixable. A full gut rehab is needed.
But hey, what's on Netflix???!!!
SMDH.
A couple more notes here.
If your ideas are good, you don't need coercion or censorship or force to sell them, they just sell themselves. It's quite simple. You don't need to lie to people, you don't need to quash other viewpoints. When you tell someone to not run into traffic on a highway, they listen. The idea and suggestion is a clear winner. I don't need to silence some other clown telling you that cars crashing into you won't hurt you.
Lastly, I don't know how to comprehend any of this anymore. Maybe it's because so many have lost any type of religion or spiritual guidance. I look around and see so much chaos, it's mind-boggling. I just do not understand.
The whole "most people are good", I don't know about that. Prove it to me, because I don't see it. I see evil and selfishness everywhere.
I might be an asshole at times, but that isn't a reflection of my values. If anything, my asshole-ness comes because of all the evil I see. At times, I wish I was a NPC, ignorance is bliss must be an amazing stress-free way to live life. :/
Right there with you Jerky Boy. Sometimes I long for the happier days of having my head up my ass. But alas, I can’t unsee what I’ve witnessed in the last five years and that youthful notion of “greatest country ever” is so far in my rear view mirror I can no longer see it.
"Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other." - John Adams
"States just ignoring Fed Law/Judiciary?"
The Hawaii Supreme Court recently said (paraphrased) "the US Constitution doesn't apply in Hawaii" in a 2A case. Instead, "the scriptwriters for 'The Wire' are our guiding light."
what? I totally missed that.
"HONOLULU — A ruling by Hawaii's high court saying that a man can be prosecuted for carrying a gun in public without a permit cites crime-drama TV series "The Wire" and invokes the "spirit of Aloha" in an apparent rebuke of a U.S. Supreme Court decision that expanded gun rights nationwide.
"The thing about the old days, they the old days," the unanimous Hawaii Supreme Court ruling issued Wednesday said, borrowing a quote from season four, episode three of the HBO series to express that the culture from the founding of the country shouldn't dictate contemporary life.
Authored by Justice Todd Eddins, the opinion goes on to say, "The spirit of Aloha clashes with a federally-mandated lifestyle that lets citizens walk around with deadly weapons during day-to-day activities.""

Buy guns and ammunition.
Thanks for that. oh my. Good thing we left my home state, it's not looking good these days. Not that the EU is much better, but....
When Obama said the Constitution was a "document of negative liberties", I knew we were F#^ked. This asshat and his administration would just figure out "work-arounds" to the Bill of Rights, so they could do what they wanted. Screw the people and their freedom.
Bush called it a GD piece of paper when he wanted to legalize torture. And spying.
Then congress voted to let him off and then Obama put the spying on steroids. And said that "we tortured some folks."
Well said.
"We have psychopaths and sociopaths running this Country, and the World for that matter."
And unfortunately we can’t vote them out because we never voted them in. Congress doesn’t even write bills anymore. The lobbyists do and congress just votes on them without having time to read what’s in them. Massie explained that during the 1st year of Covid.
I read a summary of yesterday's SCOTUS activity on this case that said SCOTUS was admonishing the plaintiffs because they hadn't shown the harm that was done to them by the government's efforts to suppress speech.
While I think this is off-track (as GM explained so well, they should be addressing the infringements of rights not worrying about proving harm), I think the plaintiffs need to attack the claim that the wrong information can harm people. Make the government prove that information is DIRECTLY harmful to people.
Information by itself can do no harm. Information is just words and images that are processed by people. People then decide what they will do with that information. Absorb it, ignore it, talk about it with friends, whatever. There can be no possible harm until the person takes action. Any harm is thus the responsibility of the person taking in the information, not on the purveyor of the information.
If we can blow up the claim that information is harmful to people, the justification for censorship falls apart.
I listened to the whole thing live yesterday and was astonished by the very same thing. "Where's the harm?" was the gist of way too much questioning. This pertains to "standing" I gather, which seems to be legalese for "we don't want to touch this with a 10-foot pole."
'which seems to be legalese for "we don't want to touch this with a 10-foot pole."'
Exactly, but what is driving their fear of addressing it? Are they in on the con or being blackmailed?
Invitations to the best cocktail parties?
If it's that shallow it's even worse than the other options.
I am regretting my snarky question above; but we are tribal animals and I am concerned that the temptation to do too little will be too strong. We have come a long way since Snyder v. Phelps.
Exactly. Well said! Gosh and we aren’t even lawyers, but understand how important the 1st amendment is. And why it’s the 1st.
