When colleges and universities start offering courses like this, it isn’t about academic rigor, the striving for newer (and useful) knowledge. This is pandering in a pale (and useless) effort under the rubric of “transforming the world.”
Progressives
No Power Greater Than Themselves
It is essential for everyone, regardless of their political preference or affiliation, to understand something. The people pursuing power by any means possible do not see any power in heaven or on earth greater than themselves.
Another High Profile Progressive Exposed as an Ethnic Fake
Last year saw a handful of ethnic fakes exposed. People pretending to descend from an approved progressive victim class who turn out to be white women. And it’s always white women.
The Term ‘Liberal Historian’ is an Oxymoron and This One is a Moron.
An oxymoron could be a toothless hillbilly high on painkillers. For our purposes today, we will cling to the standard dictionary definition: one or two words in which seemingly contradictory terms appear side by side.
Progressives Go From “You Shouldn’t Do That” to “We’ll Make Gov’t Make You Do That” in 3 Heartbeats
From my friend John Hawkins (Culturcidal), a post named “Is This Liberal Right That It’s Wrong to Own Pets?“. The relevant part from his post (emphasis mine):
Notable Quote – Fear Progressivism/Socialism FAR More than Populism
A two-fer: SHOT: Prof Thomas Sowell (Knowledge and Decisions) It is not the source or the ruthlessness of power alone which defines totalitarianism, but the unprecedented scope of the activities subjected to political control. E.g., name a part of your life in which Government HASN’T intruded and you’ll begin to understand “unprecedented scope”. I’ve challenged … Read more
Democrat Values vs. TEA Party Values: Technocrats or Elected Officials – Who Should Actually Govern?
BUMPED from 9/30/2012: MaggieCare. Having just put up a video, HARD WORK, for Don Bolduc (for US Senate), I remember this about Maggie Hassan’s attempt to “nationalizing” NH’s hospitals and putting with a “Commission” that would have been beyond the reach of voters (sorta like what Democrat US Senator Elizabeth Warren did with the Consumer Protection Bureau – which just got shot down as unconstitutional in its structure and operation).
America’s Republic Is the Only Acceptable Form of Government
It would be laughable if it wasn’t just so pathetic how the Left keeps trying to paint conservatives, Republicans or anyone else, who will not drop on their knees and worship their absurd evil god of Socialism. History, the real kind, not the revised make-believe versions the progressives push, tells us that Socialism does not … Read more
Zero Emissions: Pretend Locally, Emit Globally
The American Left’s zero emissions climate goals are not much different than shipping all your plastic garbage to Asia. We do it and pretend it’s recycling, then try to ban straws or bags here when they throw them in the ocean. It’s offshoring, and with Electric vehicles, we are just offshoring emissions, but it’s worse.
Depopulation Progs Aren’t Transing Your Kids Out Of Empathy
The Left claims that transitioning children with or without parental consent is compassionate. But Trans-kids and those on the gender spectrum – even in supportive communities – are 40% more likely to attempt suicide. So is it about empathy or depopulation?
The Plight of the Progressive Teacher
She will stick with her vision, and if her classes get smaller, well, so be it. True believers do not weigh their truth by popularity.
Beware! The UK Nationalized Healthcare Disservice is Heading for Progressive America
My friend is an English-born naturalized American citizen, and he is troubled. His brother, who lives in England, was stricken by severe abdominal pain, diagnosed with an acute gallbladder, and hospitalized for several weeks. They sent him home and as an outpatient, he had a tube placed in his gallbladder.
So Predictable. Next Target is Religion
The Left is reading directly from the Marxist playbook on how to break down a Democracy as you transform your country into a Socialist or Communist government and society. The Left has proven to be very patient and methodical as they began phase one over a hundred years ago.
How to Defeat the Green Lords of Darkness and Their Liberal World Disorder
America’s anger towards Joe Biden’s presidency is building. Inflation is ravaging people’s retirement, energy costs are out of sight, and America’s great cities have been transformed into crime-ridden war zones where criminals are treated as victims.
When “Global” Warming Isn’t “Global”
The current heatwave isn’t exactly odd, nor is it special. And it isn’t hotter than days of yore when CO2 was just an itch in your fossil-fuel daddy’s pants. It’s just the weather. Yes, it is hot. There are also too many polar bears now (‘cuz global warming).
Time to Pull the Plug on Progressives
Progressive in politics is a misnomer. Progressives have no interest in enhancing the state of our nation but rather in tearing it down and rebuilding it in their image. This philosophy is why Progressives aim to eradicate the country’s history and repaint it in as bad a light as possible.
China will smash U.S.
That’s what China is saying, they will smash us over Taiwan “no matter what it costs” They know Biden will be hiding in the cellar again along with all those so brave liberal “activists”. BLM and Antifa hiding behind masks, firebombing defenseless businesses will be nowhere to be seen if, and I say “IF” any calls come out for recruits to defend America from the emboldened dictators of China, Russia, and N. Korea.
NH State Rep Jan Schmidt Continues the Progressive Mantra That Govt Should Always Be Paid Positions
Yep, after what seems to be a “forever hiatus”, Jan Schmidt is back. However, it’s only one role as she lost her race to continue being a Nashua Alderman. However, she continues to say inane stuff that keeps attracting attention. At an NH Journal post that announced that NH State Rep (and “Progressive Leader”) Manny … Read more
Promoted from the Comments – Conservatives Need to Understand That Their Opposition Is Not Seeking Compromise, but Conquest
I really liked Michael Graham’s piece that says America can’t fix anything lately – and Kurt Schlichter’s (Notable Quote) amplifies it. As always, I’m scanning the comments to both see what the temperature of our readers is while looking for thoughtful remarks that make good points. Agent Liberty left such a comment here on Graham’s piece.
Uterus Cereal Because Talking About Menstruation at the Breakfast Table Should be a Thing
How about this for a publicity stunt with a mission. Intimina, a feminine care brand, is offering you a box of cereal. It consists of crunchy red bits shaped like the female reproductive system. Why? They want to normalize conversations about menstrual bleeding.
