When the real “peaceful protests” started to not be peaceful at all, and when you couldn’t tell the BLM rioters from the Antifa ones, we shouldn’t have been surprised. I try to take people at their word when they are saying something “important” (as opposed to noticeably just joking around).

What if a Medical Mask Was Found Trapped in the Nostril of a Sea Turtle?

The History of the ‘Left’s Religion’ “Leads only to Shortages, Despotism, and Murder”

Promoted from the Comments – “Ah, yes. The return of the “Five Year Plans””

Notable Quote – It’s always the “well, the right people haven’t implemented it” excuse
Yet while socialists distance themselves from contemporary and historical examples of socialism, they usually struggle to explain what exactly they would do differently. Socialists tend to escape into abstraction, and talk of lofty aspirations rather than tangible institutional characteristics. -Kristian Niemietz ( Socialism: The Failed Idea That Never Dies) That’s all we keep hearing – … Read more
Socialism is Based on Greed – Capitalism is Based on Serving Others

Democrat National Committee Panelist – Our Aim is the Destruction of Capitalism
No longer does the question “What is the difference between a Democrat and a Socialist” have any relevance. There are none. One only has to understand what the Black Lives Matters movement has openly said about Capitalism and that the three founders are “trained Marxist.”

Global Warming Hit Maple Syrup So Hard in 2020 We Set a Global Record for Production
Remember when Jeanne Shaheen said if we didn’t do something about global warming blah blah blah? Of course, you do, we bring it up all the time. And look, we’re doing it again.
A taste of Saul Alinsky from our commenters – heh!
Our commenters can be rather amusing at times even if their comments have a bit of a barb to them. This is sort of like the meme I saw on Facebook a while ago (no, I can’t find it) going along the lines of: We HAVE to put in Voter ID – We can’t allow … Read more
Are you going to work for free to pay for all of this?

Wouldn’t it be Wonderful?
Wouldn’t it be wonderful if we could find a cure for all things that ail us? Perhaps we could make the cure from divine fruit. What do you think? Should the cure be fair to the eye? Would it be inviting to the palate? Would it grant us the virtue of wisdom?
Destroy America Based on a False Narrative
Cities across America have been burning. There has been widespread looting. In the aftermath property owners who were defending their life’s work were beaten senseless. What we see taking place throughout the country has nothing to do with George Floyd. It is an attempt at a totalitarian takeover.
So, What Does the Left Have Planned After the Riots Fail to Unseat Trump?
I’m somewhere between a half-dozen and a dozen conversations on the same theme. All of them with people who are not, to my knowledge, otherwise politically active. The subject? Democrats are behind all this crap from Russia to lockdowns to riots, so what’s next?
