Some libs are finally starting to get it

Some libs are finally starting to get it

I found this op-ed on Gab, entitled “The backlash to political correctness was inevitable“, published by the Toronto Sun.  I mostly agree with it, but I wanted to address some things that irritated me.  (I linked to the mobile version, as the ads on the desktop version are highly annoying).

After addressing the fact that some of our concerns are actually legitimate – some migrants to commit crimes, and aspects of Islam are troubling – the author veers into some leftist stupidity.

“That’s where anti-immigration politicians such as Trump and Le Pen come in.”

In other words, brushing off the legitimate concerns of some “moderates” gets you anti-immigration politicians like Trump and Le Pen.

First of all, Trump is not anti-immigration.  This is a flat out lie.  For god’s sake, two of his wives were immigrants, his current wife being one of the two!  Nothing Trump has said indicates that he is “anti-immigrant.”  When will you people learn to differentiate between legal immigrants and illegal immigrants?

Oh, never.  Our position is actually a reasonable one, so of course they will never, ever learn the distinction.  It is too politically expedient and easy to accuse your opponents of being xenophobic bigots, rather than actually address our concerns.  Could you people please explain to me why it’s okay for Mexicans and God knows who else to simply cross the border and set up shop here without actually letting our government know they’re here?  Can you explain to me why it’s okay for these people to commit identity theft and fraud in order to gain access to our public welfare programs?

Can you explain to me why it is okay for Canada and Mexico, to name just two other countries, to have far stricter immigration laws and steeper punishments for breaking those laws?  Can you explain to me why New Zealand has such strict criteria for becoming a citizen of their nation?  Why can’t we have such criteria?

All any of us, including Trump, ever wanted was for people to enter our country the proper way, by respecting and following our laws.  Oh, and we’d also like for them to at least respect our culture and not threaten to beat our children if they, or anyone else chooses to prominently display the American flag on May 5.

As for Marine Le Pen, she sounded pretty anti-immigrant to me, wanting to halt all immigration, but I could be wrong about that, and even if I am not, the situation in France is far worse than it is here, and has been for quite some time (back in 2004, I followed French politics because I had a crush on a French polititian [I am embarrassed, okay] and even back then “youths”, or Muslim migrants were burning cars left and right).  I can’t blame her or anyone else in France for wanting to at least temporarily halt all immigration so that they may address the problems they have, and deport the troublemakers.

So at least as far as Trump is concerned, that is such bullshit.  He is not anti-immigrant.  He wants immigrants to obey our laws and assimilate.  That is all.

“Is the threat of radical Muslim immigration to the U.S. so great that it warrants Donald Trump’s sledgehammer-to-kill-a-fly travel ban? No.”

Actually, I believe it is.  I would know more than some Canadian, because I at least live and work in the US.

Furthermore, that is a gross mischaracterization of Trump’s executive order.  Has this person actually read the executive order?  The so-called “ban” concerns people either born in or coming from seven specific countries, one of them being Syria.  The list on Trump’s executive order was mostly cribbed from a similar order issued by Obama in 2011, I believe.  Trump merely added Syria to the list.

The order does not cover ALL Muslim majority nations on the Earth, and it was TEMPORARY.  The “ban” would have lasted only 90 days!  So no, it isn’t a sledgehammer in the least – it’s more like a Nerf bat.  Jesus.

Despite those two items, the op-ed is actually pretty good, and intelligent coming from a liberal.  Political correctness, the dogma of the left, is under jeopardy and people like the author want to save it, hence this burst of common sense.  Of course, old habits die hard and they cannot help but indulge in a little bit of hyperbole and lies.

I’m a little late to the Milo party/pile-on, but I have to say just one last thing.  I follow him on Facebook and he’s gone back to posting news stories as usual.

I am very glad for this.  I am glad he’s not hiding away in a corner (although, to be honest, he probably has hired some people to post on his website and Facebook page, but that’s okay – loads of people do it).  He’s going to be back after this, better than ever.

I also caught a glimpse of his partner.  I hope the left never finds this guy – they will destroy him, especially because he is black.  I am also glad Milo has someone to help him through these times.

We cannot just jettison our loyal soldiers the way the #NeverTrumpers and RINOs do.  That’s one of the right’s biggest failings – some of us have absolutely no loyalty and practice no forgiveness.  You screw up, you’re done.  No second chances, no forgiveness, no attempt at trying to understand.  Not that I’m saying we should accept actual wrongdoing either…but in this case, Milo didn’t do anything wrong.  He got hit by some idiotic group calling themselves the Reagan Battalion and the left latched on to it.

As I said, I’m glad he’s still doing what he does best.

It’s like, 5:40 in the morning and I cannot sleep.  I have to wake up at 6:30 am to get ready for work and some strange things have been happening, like my TV turning on randomly to a different input than the one I left it in (and to top it all off, it tuned in to the Fox News Channel during a report on Kim Jong Un assassinating his own uncle).

So I can’t sleep, and when I can’t sleep, I usually grab my iPhone and start wandering the Web.  So I found this.  It’s kind of old – published in February of 2013, and it’s about that stupid Austrian actor again.  Sigh.  I will put the rest of this behind a cut if you don’t care.

The Left Claims Another Scalp

Milo Yiannopolous’s book Dangerous, originally slated for a March 2017 release, has now been canceled.  His publisher was Simon & Schuster, on the Threshold Editions imprint.  Cucks.  Total cucks, but that is no surprise.  At all.

I also want to note that the release of the book had been pushed to a June 2017 release before its cancellation.  I think that may have been due to Milo wanting to add something about the Berkeley riots.  I had thought it strange and annoying, as I had preordered it and was seriously looking forward to reading it.

I have nothing more right now, as I’m angry.  I shouldn’t be, I guess, but I am.  The media has been accusing him of being things he is not, and this latest charge is just as untrue as the rest.  So all I have is this:

Started another book and added a contact form

Started another book and added a contact form

I am still working on my debut, of which is also the first of a series, and am still working on what is technically the second of the series, and I just started the third novel of the series.  Plus, last month I started a prequel.  Goodness gracious, but I love my alien series.  I love the characters and I love writing about them and reading about them and it’s a little weird, but it works.

I also have a couple of blog posts I need to get up.  If you want to know what I’m writing, click here – it has a listing of the books I am currently working on.  I haven’t updated it with the prequel and the third book of the alien series, and I’m not going to, until I at least publish Nemesis.

I am currently doing the zillionth read-through of Nemesis.  Once I’ve made the desired changes, I will finally be ready for some beta readers.  I will probably ask my family members to read it first, and then solicit beta readers from the Internet.

I also need to give you a way to contact me, so I have to set up a separate email address and possibly a form.  I don’t know how I feel about mailing lists…maybe someday.  But right now, I’m just going to focus on my books.

Just added a contact form.  That should go well.  *eyeroll* I’m talking, of course, about the potential to get tons of abuse from liberals who cannot handle the opinions of a conservative.  Oh well.  I need to learn to deal with it.  It’s in the sidebar, but you can also click here to send me a comment.

Free Speech and Platforms

Free Speech and Platforms

So recently, Christina Applegate posted a series of tweets complaining about how many Trump supporters and others on the Right hate it when celebrities make political statements.  She said – quite rightly, although I am reluctant to give this stupid woman any credit at all – that they were entitled to an opinion and had the right to express it.

Which, as I said, is true.  I don’t entirely feel comfortable slinging around the “shut up and sing” slogan because I so passionately believe in the First Amendment.  I also believe that these celebrity idiots are no better than we are.  If we have the right to say something, then so do they.

But I also understand why many of us on the Right tell them to “shut up and sing” – their opinions are usually nothing more than ill-informed insults and/or grandiose, narcissistic grandstanding (like Kerry Washington’s “like, I’m not just an actress – I’m an activist and it’s totally my duty to tell you who to vote for and demonize whitey!” statements on the red carpet).

What many celebrities spew is no different than the insane screeds you might read at Democratic Underground or the Huffington Post or the Daily Kos, or whichever idiot leftist site you might be thinking of right now.  Seriously, take a good look at any thread at DU and then compare it to the stupid bullshit washed up idiots like Shia LeDouche (heh) say on a regular basis.  It’s basically the same.

Even so-called intellectual Viennese actors spew idiotic, childish, and dare I say, infantile bullshit.  Normally, whenever I read the stupidity at DU or in the comment sections of most political blogs, I roll my eyes and move on.

But not when an actor starts spewing their bullshit.  Why?  Just a few days ago I was pondering this, and I figured out why.

Actors, musicians, authors, etc enjoy one thing that the average cretin at DU does not – a big, huge, influential platform.  Lady GaGa’s upcoming Super Bowl performance will generate a shitload of publicity.  She has already announced that it will indeed be “political” because she believes in tolerance, compassion, etc (and will basically accuse anyone who is remotely concerned about illegal immigration of racism and hatred – essentially acting like a raging hypocrite) and wants those values to be reflected in her performance.  It’ll be all over the place, just like Beyonce’s idiotic performance last year (which, contrary to what my grandparents think, WAS a tribute to the Black Panthers).

I can put up with the deranged rantings of a DUer.  They have little to no influence on, well, anything.  But when an actress or musician goes, “punch Nazis, lol” then someone on this planet will surely do exactly as they command.  And since anyone that disagrees with a liberal is now essentially a Nazi, that means each and every one of us on the Right is in danger of being assaulted by some deranged, idiotic, celebrity worshiping moron.

This, more than anything, is why I hate it when celebrities say anything about politics.  I have to hear or see their bullshit all over the place.  It’ll be on the local news, it’ll be all over my Facebook, Twitter and Gab feeds.  It’ll be breathlessly reported on at all of the websites I frequent.  It’ll be on the entertainment news shows (not that I watch those) and reported on in magazines.

And nobody, NOBODY (save the right-wingers on social media networks and on the websites I visit) will challenge their shit.  Nobody will fact check them.  Nobody will point out how utterly asinine and insane they are.  No, the mainstream media will worship at the altar of these stupid morons, praising them and enthusiasically agreeing with them.

This, of course, will be brought up in 2018, just in time for the midterms.  And then in 2020, perfectly timed for the Presidential election.

That’s why I was so gobsmacked and shocked at Trump’s victory.  The celebrities and the asshats in the MSM went all-out to demonize Trump and his supporters whilst building up and deifiying Hillary Clinton (because, after all, she was going to be the First Female President – history will be made again you guys!!!).  One stupid ad after the other…one stupid “FUCK TRUMP” statement at various award shows and in magazines after the other.  All of this stupid bullshit and for once, it amounted to absolutely nothing.  It was wonderful.  It felt like a new day…hell, like a new age.

But I’m not used to all this winning.  I’m used to losing, to be honest.  I’m used to the rug being pulled out from under me.  It’s been that way for the past eight years.  The Bush years were no picnic either.  Celebrities bitched about Bush too.  Back then, they sounded like the average DU poster – nothing but idiotic, childish insults and gross hyperbole.  Now it’s the same damn thing.  Bush was reelected, at least, but at that time, the Iraq war had only been raging for a year and some months.

I know not all celebs are like that, but precious few are reasonable about their political views.  I am totally okay with you being liberal.  After all, most of my family are liberals, and I’m still close to them.  What makes me angry are the baseless insults that get amplified by a hypocritical press who act like it’s a good thing that an entire group of people is smeared and slandered.

Why can’t these people express their opinion without being assholes about it?  Here, I can help you.  If only a liberal could say, “well, I understand that people are concerned about terrorists sneaking in amongst the refugees, but I would feel terrible if we turned away someone who genuinely needed asylum.  Surely there is a middle ground that we could reach.”

See!  It’s not that hard!  If I can do it, so can you!  I can see the issue from both sides.  Both sane, rational sides.  But the left is all, “ZOMG U RACIST!  U HATE BROWN PPL!!!  FUCK OFF AND DIE, NAZI BITCH!!!”

The frightening thing is that it works.  At least, that’s how I feel anyway.  Trump’s victory shows that it is possible to break away from the insidious influence of morons like Christina Applegate, Lady GaGa, Madonna, Ashley Judd and others.
