Libertine: A libertine is a person devoid of most moral principles, a sense of responsibility, or sexual restraints, which they see as unnecessary or undesirable, and is especially someone who ignores or even spurns accepted morals and forms of behaviour observed by the larger society.[1][2] Libertinism is described as an extreme form of hedonism.[3] Libertines put value on physical pleasures, meaning those … Read more
Aerosmith: “WALK THIS WAAAY!”. Transgender Woman Rachel Levine: “Stand this way”: (click to embiggen) It would be one thing if Parents, in abusing allowing 2, 3, 4 year old boys to “transition” (yet another made up Woke word – we must challenge the abuse of our common language each and every time) because those boys … Read more
Sidenote: You have to note the use of “straight” instead of that made up word “cisheteronormative”. I am so over the Wokesters constantly trying to force us to use their Orwellian language and make us believe its the “norm” when it comes to “sexual identity” that is to be the most important attribute of being … Read more
Steve, as Editor, is going to hate me for the title but I wanted the effect from the original (NotTheBee) post. It’s not bad enough that a tiny sliver of the overall population has decided that they can demand that we can only use certain coerced speech in and out of their presence and that … Read more
The conflicting visions he describes in the book are the constrained or tragic view of human nature and the unconstrained or utopian view. People with a more constrained view of the human condition see mankind as hopelessly flawed. They see inherent limits to human betterment. We might want to end war or poverty or racism, … Read more
I do watch the Sunday morning political talk shows even if they are quite Progressive in outlook even as they insist that they are solidly in the middle. That’s because they are of a hive mind, soaked in their own intellectual/ideology social strata that has hardly anyone Right of center asked to be at their … Read more
I have decided all the commentariat endlessly tweaking over 06JAN21 have Insurrectile Dysfunction.”
Well, at least the target market has already been identified – Democrats, some RINOs, and assorted NeverTrumpers** that have other kinds of dysfunctions as well.
The Progressives and the Biden Administration want Illegal Aliens to be treated as if they were actual citizens. But they’re not. If they were, they’d have to show a valid and negative COVID card to get on airplanes for the free trips to the Red States where Biden is dumping them.
Editor’s Note: Yet another attempt by the Left to change our common language out from underneath us?
It’s difficult to keep up with these new identifications and all the rules governing them. As someone recently suggested, perhaps we should just change the acronym to “LGBTQ-TBA” and be done with it.
One of the biggest proponents of Critical Race Theory is Ibram X. Kendi. Watch how Kendi does the Catch-22 Tango, care of Andrew Sullivan, to make himself appear smart.
Gregg’s post on how the Left manipulates the Right via language “twists” pretty much sums up what the Democrats are trying to do with redefining our language.
Ordinances, regulations, statutes, constitutions I get – same question on “guidelines”? Or, “guidance” as well. I’ve remarked before WHY are we supposed to “obey” these nebulous orders from either bureaucrats or Unitary Executives?
NOTE: While it may well be too late for most voters who HAVE voted by mail, New Hampshire is 1 of the only 8 States that allow you a “re-do”:
This is a constant refrain from me – the Left is always trying to bastardize, redefine, and weaponize what used to be our common language to move their agenda forward. You name it, any word that’s now used in politics has a far different meaning to the Left than we Normals.
One of my favorite quotes from the entertaining movie, “Princess Bride” is Inigo Montoya’s reply to Vizzini who can’t conceive of any facet of his plan going awry. (Spoilers: several facets don’t pan out.)
Students demand segregated ‘Black House’ so they can ‘feel included.’ …The identity of all but two students who helped compose the letter was intentionally withheld “to protect the anonymity of Black students who may not feel comfortable with their name attached to a stated demand.” The letter states the list of demands “has been in … Read more
Normally I would have put this up as a Notable Quote until I read the last sentence. Twice. If only I could be there in person to make sport of them:
The Left has been doing this for a long time: Transsexual has become trans male or trans woman Gay no longer means “happy! happy!” Transsexual has transmogrified into trans male or trans woman Abortion bad, “Pro-choice” / “Reproductive Justice” / “Body autonomy” is the new hotness Libertarian has become “selfish!” Conservative has become “evil” / … Read more
“What I find truly disheartening is that the NH GOP condones officers threatening sitting Republican senators” Oh Gosh! In part, I find myself having to defend NH State Senator Jeb Bradley??? The discussions on HB696 are raging all over the NH political blogosphere and it is my understanding that this bill has now been “enrolled” … Read more
