The left has turned against AI

The left has turned against AI. By John Carter.

The left has turned against AI because they correctly sense that it will strip mine their power bases.

Their strongest argument for the third world flood is that we need people to do the jobs white people aren’t interested in. In practice, that’s driving trucks, driving Ubers, delivering food, working in food services, and writing shit code. Self-driving cars make all the driving jobs redundant, robots will probably be able to flip burgers, chatbots can write shit code. Which means there’s no argument not to send them all back that isn’t “but it would be mean” …

The lower 80% of the professional-managerial class (PMC) is finished, unless they can trick or bully us into paying them for existing:

Professional-managerial jobs are mostly bullshit fake email jobs, and everyone knows it. Everyone also knows they’re already letting ChatGPT do their work for them. There’s already no good argument for not firing 95% of administrative and clerical staff at large corporations and public sector bureaucracies. The jobs were always fake, yes, but LLMs rip away the fig leaf of plausible deniability. No really, what are we paying you for?

Libtard status is to a large degree based on university degrees. Again AI is annihilating this, because everyone knows students are CheatGPTing their ways through programs that everyone already knew were largely meaningless. Default assumption for the class of 2026 will be that AI completed all their coursework for them.

AI is eating the social status and the jobs of the PMC, while destroying the economic argument for their pet project of replacement migration.

Who wins from AI?

The people being empowered by AI tend to be either tech moguls (the industrial bourgeoisie) who own the data centres, or the genuinely creative classes (entrepreneurs, freelancers, artists) who can use AI to do all the clerical grunt work you used to need a large organization to handle.

The bourgeoisie are something of a disempowered aristocracy, very much shoved to the side by the managerial class. Entrepreneurs are the most economically oppressed class in society. Both feel themselves to be carrying a huge parasite burden, which not only sucks their wealth away towards unproductive and even destructive uses, but constrains their action via the anarchotyrannical webwork of rules and regulations the managerialists have woven. …

Their cultural power will soon but be a distant memory:

Entertainment media is another field where the left will take a huge hit. AI generated TV shows and movies made by individual creators will eat Hollywood alive. The intracultural dominance that the left has achieved by locking down the bureaucratic structure of large production studios will become meaningless very quickly. This will rip money out of their pockets, but more importantly destroy their cultural power.

Raw gimme-dat:

There isn’t much the left can do about this. They can try to demonize the use of AI, but that’s going to be a long term effective strategy.

Their only real play is to make a big push for a massive new system of parasitism. Hence UBI, but also all the mad stuff like unrealized capital gains taxes, the hate towards billionaires in general and Musk specifically, the argument that the rich need to pay their fair share etc. If they lose their sinecures, they’ll demand tribute.

If they get it, they’ll be able to devote themselves full time to left wing activism. That will make the leftist problem 100x worse than it already is.

The left is becoming the party of the “oppressed,” which in modern parlance really means those less able to compete economically, which in turn effectively means those groups with lower average IQs. The left is fast becoming the party of the stupid, criminals, fraudsters, and the gimme-dats. So of course they hate whites, Musk, Israel, Trump, merit, accountability, AI, etc. etc.

Who built modern Australia?

Our ancestors arrived with nothing and built Australia from the ground up.

You have a cushy, high-paid job because my ancestors died in poverty and hardship. How dare you be so disrespectful. You are not fit for power.

Are we proud of our ancestors? Absolutely.

They were the most extraordinary people to walk the earth. Their achievements remain unparalleled in the history of our species.

We must work to ensure that their stories are remembered, and their advancements are built on — not lost.

Media logic:

Riddle me this.

It is claimed the Liberals are losing votes because they’re ‘moving to the right’.

Yet One Nation is out-polling everyone — from the right.

Both can’t be true.

Yet ‘serious’ political journalists refuse to address the inconsistency in their logic.

Why are Canadians now poorer than Alabamans? How did Justin Trudeau get his $400 million?

Why are Canadians now poorer than Alabamans? How did Justin Trudeau get his $400 million?

Canada’s GDP per capita is $54,236 USD (nominal, 2023), according to data from the World Bank and OECD, adjusted using an average exchange rate of 1.3495 USD per CAD.

Alabama’s GDP per capita is $54,753 USD (nominal, 2022), based on U.S. Bureau of Economic Analysis data.

 

 

Coddled Affluent Professional:

It’s important to understand that progressive technocracy has become a looting operation.

It’s just connected people feeding at the trough.

You could argue that’s always been the case but now nothing gets built. There’s nothing to show for it. Not even a Boss Tweed Courthouse. Instead, imaginary things like ‘social justice’ and ‘carbon neutrality’ are the outputs used to justify the theft.

Jason James: (Isn’t this like Australia?)

It’s funny watching Canadian legacy media wake from their stupor and wonder what happened “out of nowhere.” Here’s a quick list to help them gain a better understanding:

2016-Ongoing: Phoenix Pay System
New federal payroll system. Costs quadrupled mysteriously. More costs to fix the quadrupled costs. Actual cost unknown because spending wasn’t tracked.

2018: Chrysler Bailout
Liberals wrote off a $2.6 billion loan to Chrysler for unknown reasons. No recovery of funds.

2020: WE Charity Contract
$912 million student grant program contract awarded to WE Charity. Contract cancelled when Trudeau’s family were found to be receiving payouts from WE. $30 million in initial costs unrecovered. …

2020-2021: Unaccounted Pandemic Spending
$600 billion in unaccounted pandemic spending in 2020-21. …

2024: Cricket Protein Plant
$42 million lost on one facility. …

Interest costs $53.7 billion.

$300 million on passport redesign.

Plus billions funneled into Canada’s perpetually failing state-funded media.

And this is just what’s documented. Who knows how much money was laundered and embezzled into offshore accounts over the last 11 years?

During his time as Prime Minister, Justin Trudeau’s personal net worth grew from $7 million to upwards for $400 million on a $400,000 per year salary.

Canada might be poorer than Alabama but Mark Carney, Justin Trudeau and the Liberal Party definitely aren’t.

So far Australia has somewhat avoided the Canadian problem due to buoyant iron ore prices — which will be coming down soon because the Chinese are just now opening mega iron ore mines in Guinea, in West Africa.

Or maybe it’s happening already, hidden by our media who are more partisan and less curious. Our GDP per capita has been dropping for the last few years. (Australia’s GDP per capita in 2024 was $64,407 USD, according to the World Bank data cited by Trading Economics.)

Tim Koltek:

While I’m sure Justin Trudeau is a wonderful father to his kids, the real issue for me boils down to one word: qualification. How was he qualified to run a company — let alone an entire country like Canada? Sure, he comes from impressive stock, but he never ran a business, never managed large groups of people beyond his time as a high school teacher, and never had to handle budgets, make tough calls on trust, or learn when to stop trusting.

Like Anthony Albanese, the globalist class chose someone of modest talent, via positive media coverage, who would execute their agenda. Won’t rock the boat by thinking too hard, amenable to being softly persuaded with unearned wealth, and an ideologue who remained loyal to the programming of his youth.

 

The plot to topple the next Right-wing government has already begun

The plot to topple the next Right-wing government has already begun. By Allister Heath in The Telegraph.

Allister has been the Editor of The Sunday Telegraph since 2017 so probably knows more about British politics than almost anyone, and Britain is a particularly interesting part of the Anglosphere because it has undergone more population replacement and is about to revolt.

Britain is not merely broken: it has been hacked to pieces by a nihilistic ruling class committed to dismembering our society.

The methodical ruthlessness of the Left-wing barbarians responsible, the relentlessness of their vandalism, the thoroughness of their infiltration of our institutions is such that it will take at least a decade for a future Right-wing Government to rebuild the UK, as well as extraordinary competence, planning and strategic nous. …

Almost every important decision of the past 36 years [since Thatcher fell] … will need to be reversed if Britain is to be saved. …

The long list of self-inflicted catastrophes:

The principal calamities include:

  • the pocketing of a non-existent Cold War dividend and a belief that armed conflict and the need for resilience were obsolete;
  • New Labour’s constitutional and judicial putsches; the rise of command and control welfarism and mass redistribution under Gordon Brown;
  • Tony Blair’s decision to open borders and drastically increase immigration, combined with the spread of critical theory and anti-Western self-hatred, a process turbocharged by the Tories;
  • the embrace of net zero, anti-developmentalism and anti-consumerism;
  • the turn against free markets, exacerbated by a misreading of the financial crisis;
  • the abandonment of monetary and fiscal probity, culminating in the quantitative easing bonanza during Covid;
  • the displacement of religious observance by secular ideologies such as Gaia worship, NHS idolatry and wokery;
  • the decline of marriage, the crisis of masculinity, the surge in loneliness and the baby bust;
  • the embrace of lockdowns and authoritarianism;
  • and the rejection of democracy, freedom, trial by jury, the presumption of innocence and free speech.

Our economy has been crippled by record tax and spend and a regulatory overload, with virtually zero per capita GDP growth, target-busting inflation, massive government debts and youth unemployment of 15.3 per cent, above the European average for the first time. Major and William Hague were right that the minimum wage would eventually kill jobs, and Blair and Brown wrong.

The repudiation of Thatcherism has been catastrophic. We are taxed beyond the Laffer curve’s peak, 6.5 million are on out of work benefits while millions of immigrants have been allowed to move here, the student wage premium is declining, universities are turning into economically useless indoctrination camps, and the skilled, entrepreneurial and ambitious are leaving. The City of London has lost its mojo. Industry has been destroyed by energy costs and regulations. Housebuilding is being euthanised.

Our Armed Forces are starved of resources at a time when Germany and Poland are rearming, and are desperately behind on AI, drones and missile defence. Our much-vaunted tolerance lies in shreds, with sickening Jew-hunts reminiscent of the 1290s or 1930s on the streets of Brighton and Sheffield. We are soft on Islamism and sectarian politics have become normalised.

When a properly rightwing government is re-elected:

Reversing this nightmarish inheritance will be exceptionally difficult. …

It’s not just the volume of controversial and complex legislation required that could overwhelm a Right-wing Government. The third sector has never been this powerful, and the universities, legal profession and the arts never been so Left-wing. The propaganda will be intense. Even worse, Labour will leave behind an apparatus of state that has never been more progressive or less committed to democracy.

The new government will face the equivalent of an army of clandestine agents and saboteurs embedded in every institution. Hostile civil servants and quangocrats will deploy any tool, any lie, to halt the counter-revolution, from lawfare to strike action. …

Strategy — Protect the wealth of the middle classes and they will support a right wing government that rolls back the catastrophes:

Sensible compromises are necessary. French populists have been defeated repeatedly because the middle classes feared for their money under a Marine Le Pen presidency or a euro Frexit: the British Right must never lose the support of prosperous Middle England. It must always protect their wealth.

Ensuring it cannot be attacked on macroeconomics will give a Right-wing government the latitude to fight back on every other front.

The barney will be awesome:

It will certainly be vicious. Leaving the European Convention on Human Rights (ECHR) and United Nations conventions, vital policies, will be met by a campaign to render the UK an international pariah.

Abrogating the Equalities Act will infuriate the Left, while slashing welfare and ending gold-plated public sector pensions will lead to a 21st-century version of the miners’ strikes by the nation’s bureaucrats.

There will be endless judicial activism and a constitutional crisis will surely be engineered. Sir Keir Starmer’s Brexit betrayals will need to be reversed, triggering a trade war with Brussels.

An Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez or Gavin Newsom presidency in the United States will be weaponised against a Faragiste or Badenochite British government, with sanctions a possibility.

Naive Right-wingers must stop underestimating the viciousness and power of the status quo forces arranged against them. Winning the election will be tough but merely an early battle in a lengthy war to seize control of a hostile, blue-pilled British state, supported by a radicalised establishment.

Trump had little idea in 2016 of how corrupt, nasty, parasitical and leftwing the system had become.

Rupert Lowe’s Powellite revolution

Rupert Lowe’s Powellite revolution. By Rob Lownie in UnHerd.

Rupert Lowe deals in the politics of return: illegal immigrants are going back, and so is Britain. The Great Yarmouth MP, formerly of Reform UK, has now launched Restore Britain as a new political party, and on Wednesday evening claimed that it had passed 70,000 members. …

Lowe sums up his political outlook: “I think the state is bad, and I think the individual is good.”

Immigration:

One area where the state has undoubtedly failed, in Lowe’s eyes, is on the matter of immigration. While [Nigel Farage’s] Reform has pledged to deport all illegal immigrants, Restore wants to go further. Lowe has promised to scrap the asylum system entirely, also stating last week that “legal immigration will almost come to a complete halt.” The goal is not just to halt migrant influxes but to reverse them. “Net zero immigration is weak, weak, weak. It is insufficient and it is too late,” he said in the speech with which he launched the party. “The barbarians are already in the gates.”

The remedy, Lowe warns, will be “incredibly painful”: a characteristically abrasive verdict. It is one thing to criticise quangos, and quite another to say that “we must crush parasitic Britain.” And as for the dissonance between government and individual? “The state has definitively become the enemy of the people.”

Like Enoch Powell:

In his doom-laden pronouncements, Lowe resembles no British political figure so closely as Enoch Powell, whose 1968 “Rivers of Blood” speech has led a radioactive afterlife in the national consciousness. …

Powell has been a political lodestar of sorts for Nigel Farage, Lowe’s bĂŞte noire and former boss who suspended him last year over dubious accusations of bullying. …

Yet, in his beliefs as well as his rhetoric, Lowe is a more obviously Powellite figure than Farage. He’s more interested in reducing the size of the state, is resistant to Reform’s nationalising impulses, and is less vulnerable than his rival to charges of “socialism”.

In many ways, Restore is the more conservative project, given that its central mission is to return Britain — in more explicit terms than Farage has dared — to a glorious past from its Blairite present. When it comes to presentation, Farage and Lowe — tweed-clad former public schoolboys with past lives in the City — are far closer to one another than they are to the intense, prodigiously academic Powell….

Where Lowe differs from Farage, though, is that he has done less to distance himself from figures and ideas which might be classed as far-Right. While the Reform leader has condemned Tommy Robinson for “stir[ring] up hatred” and stated that the activist has no place in his party, Lowe has praised Robinson’s campaigning against grooming gangs cover-ups. …

Who is British?

In an interview in December 2024, Lowe said that “I don’t care about people’s religion or their colour,” but Restore has taken a far more robust approach to Islam than Reform has.

Lowe is set on “resisting the relentless creep of radical Islam”, and his new party’s platform includes policies on outlawing the burqa, sharia courts and halal slaughter. Some of its senior figures also champion an especially muscular Christianity. For instance, Lowe’s campaigns director Charlie Downes, a Catholic convert, declared this week: “Restore Britain believe that Britain is a people defined by indigenous British ancestry and Christian faith.” …

Starved of publicity by the legacy media:

Capturing wider support, of course, is a different proposition. According to polling from this week, 92% of Britons are unable to name Lowe when shown a picture of him. He is popular among his constituents, viewed as a committed and unpretentious champion for Great Yarmouth, but he has a majority of less than 1,500….

Many Reform people are crossing to Restore, and alliances might e made:

Lowe could receive extra ammunition from an alliance with another of Farage’s jilted exes: Ben Habib. Having served as co-deputy leader for Reform, Habib was demoted in favour of Richard Tice, and quit the party in November 2024. The following spring he referred to Lowe’s treatment by Farage as an “injustice”, subsequently setting up a new party of his own, Advance UK, in June.

On Saturday, Habib extended an open offer to Lowe to merge their two parties. Lowe politely demurred by suggesting that Habib join Restore, which “would be stronger with you in it”. …

Elon Musk likes him:

Advance [received] outsized publicity thanks to endorsements from Robinson and Elon Musk. But the Tesla mogul, as well as boosting Habib’s party, has in recent days cheered on the progress of Restore Britain. On Wednesday afternoon, he went so far as to accuse Reform of being “Nazis” because “THEY are the ones who want race extinction.” As the world’s richest man, armed with 234 million pliant X followers, Musk’s overseas influence is considerable; his amplification of posts about the grooming gangs helped push the Government into ordering a national inquiry. 

Musk is widely reviled among British voters, but his support — both X-based and financial — could boost Restore’s international profile and increase the chance of collaboration with like-minded parties such as Alternative for Germany and Spain’s Vox. Farage endorsed the AfD in 2017 but has, in recent years, kept a deliberate distance. There is a gap here for Lowe to exploit as anti-immigration groups build ties around Europe: these are parties which are gaining influence but which are still considered too dangerous by Reform and the Tories. 

Is Farage just a lighter strain of globalism?

While Farage might think he flies in the face of such squeamishness, and that he is dismantling the “uniparty” consensus, Restore supporters believe he instead represents little more than a continuation of the New Labour-inflected order which has governed Britain for the past three decades [and that] Reform’s senior figures “basically agree that the vision Blair had for Britain was admirable and desirable” … “it will come to pass that Farage is the Regime’s lifeline, not its nemesis.”

Overton window on the run:

The UK’s Overton window has undeniably shifted on immigration. … Almost half of Britons say they would support an agenda in which no new immigrants are admitted to the country and large numbers of recent arrivals are required to leave.  …

It’s easy to forget that, even after “Rivers of Blood”, Powell was immensely popular. Polls carried out shortly after the speech demonstrated that a majority of the British public agreed with his assessment of race relations. In 2002 he was voted one of the 100 greatest Britons ever. On his death, the Telegraph wrote that he “would survive more surely than any other British politician of the 20th century except Winston Churchill”.

Restore’s launch video. Rupert Lowe is not charismatic, or an everyman like Farage.

Restore’s Manifesto

Restore’s Manifesto. By Rupert Lowe, who recently launched the Restore Party in the UK because Nigel Farage’s Reform Party wasn’t strong enough on immigration. Mildly edited for length.

Every illegal migrant will be deported. No questions asked. The boats will stop….

Legal migrants will be expected to work, contribute, speak our language and respect our way of life. If they don’t do that, they’ll be asked to leave.

If they hate us, and wish to do us harm — they will leave.

We support net negative immigration. Taking ultra-skilled migrants who will give far more than they take in small and manageable numbers, but shutting off entire visa routes from countries that are proven to supply us with miscreants and takers.

Those foreign individuals who are here, who work hard, who contribute to society will absolutely be welcome.

But we will not allow millions of foreigners, mainly from the third world, to take the piss.

If a foreign national is unable to support themselves financially, it is not our problem. They should leave. We should not pay for their benefits, their social housing, their NHS care. …

They will go home. Millions will go. …

Dual nationals who want to blow us up will have their British citizenship stripped, and deported. If they rape young girls, they will have their citizenship stripped, and deported.

The spouse visa system will be eased, to allow citizens of non-red list countries to join their British partners.

There are underhand attempts to misrepresent our position. Ignore it. Send them this post. …

This is not controversial. This is certainly not ‘neo-nazi’ as Reform claim. This is the position of the vast majority of the British people, and they finally have a political party representing that view now.

Restore Britain.

Albanese: Government Education Keeps Kids From Becoming “Far-Right”

Albanese: Government Education Keeps Kids From Becoming “Far-Right”. By Caldron Pool.

Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese has suggested that children educated outside the government system are more likely to be influenced by what he describes as “far-right ideology” and to learning attitudes of “hatred and division.”

Addressing the Australian Education Union in Melbourne, Albanese said children educated by the state are less likely to see religion, race, and gender than children raised in non-government schools …

“With the rise in some of the far-right ideological positions in recent times, one of the things about — and it’s the same, particularly if it’s an early learning centre, or in a primary school — kids don’t see race, religion, gender, anything else. They just see other kids,” he said.

“You know. Hatred and division is something that’s learned and so public schooling is so important and that engagement I think as we go forward can make a big difference.” …

What a big lie. Identity politics is taught in government schools and university, which sees NOTHING BUT race, gender, religion, and sexual preferences.

Hatred and division not taught in public schools? Where do you think much of that anti-white, anti-male, and antisemitic bile is coming from? Straight out of our schools and universities.

Evidently, for the Prime Minister, government schooling is not merely about academic instruction — it is about ideological gatekeeping. the “far-right” label is consistently used. …

The “far-right” label … has come to encompass everything a left‑wing government disapproves of and seeks to suppress. It’s how they’ve long treated all political opposition. Brand them “far-right,” brand the “far-right” dangerous, and then they have for themselves a pretext for banning anyone and anything they want.

The Silenced Voices of Most Australians

The Silenced Voices of Most Australians. By Alexandra Marshall.

On politicians:

I am so disillusioned by what I have seen.

I once believed that politicians wanted to save Australia and govern it faithfully. Now I see how politics really works. How it facilitates the comfortable networks of parties and events – the clubs and the mates – the future lucrative careers…

So much is built upon personal gain rather than the service of the nation.

It breaks my heart.

On the ISIS brides:

The real story behind the ISIS brides is all their husbands, brothers, and fathers being radicalised IN SYDNEY.

Just like the footage of them storming through our streets over a decade ago.

Who wants to bet those terror networks have GROWN with zero interest from politicians? …

The Greens need a reminder that ISIS stole Yazidi women and girls, kept them as sex slaves for years, and then put them in cages and burned them alive in public. …

So yes, our refugee program should discriminate — it should ruthlessly discriminate against women who go overseas to join a terrorist group and then get sad because their husbands lost the war.

They are not Australians. They joined the Islamic State. That is their nationality.

And if our country was governed by moral, sensible human beings — those women would never set foot in this country again. They deserve to rot in the Syrian desert — and that is how the vast majority of Australians feel.

On silencing non-left voices:

What happens when you say the quiet part out loud — and the electorate agrees?

First comes the public shaming. Then an endless procession of big names and ‘important’ figures. Then the witch burning starts. Then the legal threats. Then the system panics.

We live in a ‘democracy’ which pretends to care about ‘people’s voices’ but only if those voices reinforce the #Left’s grip on power.

If the voices disagree — the state will use every power available to silence them.

Pauline Hanson:

A week of anti-One Nation assaults in the press pushed their vote up roughly 5%.

The Establishment has two choices:

1. Sit down. Shut up. And try a campaign based on merit.
2. Jail Pauline Hanson.

Guess what they’re going to try first.

What are they going to do? Throw her back in jail?

What are they going to do? Throw her back in jail? By Adehola Ore, community reporter for The Guardian.

Federal police say they have “received reports of a crime” in relation to comments made to the media by Pauline Hanson this week. …

Bilal El-Hayek, the mayor of Canterbury Bankstown in western Sydney, said earlier on Friday that the One Nation leader should face charges over her “highly inflammatory” comments about Muslims. In El-Hayek’s council area, more than 23% of residents are Muslim, according to the 2021 census. He told the ABC on Friday that hate speech laws were “quite clear” with a reference to public incitement of hatred and violence. …

In response to the news, first reported by Guardian Australia, Hanson said: “They are trying to use Labor’s new hate speech laws to put me back in jail.”

Craig Kelly:

Leftists and their authoritarian allies are now openly demanding that Senator Pauline Hanson be arrested and thrown in jail under Labor’s draconian new “hate crime” laws.

In classic leftist/fascist fashion, they have zero interest in engaging in the contest of ideas and debating their policies in the arena of free speech.

No — they demand total submission. Anyone who refuses to bend the knee, kowtow to their warped multicultural fantasy, or stay silent about the real threats facing our nation must be censored, silenced, and now imprisoned.

But here’s what these out-of-touch elites and virtue-signallers utterly fail to grasp: Australians are absolutely sick to death of their endless woke nonsense, gaslighting, and two-tier policing.

By baying for Pauline Hanson’s arrest they’re not weakening her. They’re supercharging her support and One Nation’s momentum.

Every attempt to shut her down only proves her point and wakes up more everyday Aussies who’ve had enough.

The backlash will be fierce, and it will backfire spectacularly on the left.

Watch support for Pauline Hanson and One Nation surge as a direct result of this blatant overreach.

Everything the non-left says is hate speech, but the Koran is not hate speech. Lefty world. Go figure.

The point is not what was said, whether or not some bit of speech breaches some vague standard, but to whom the hate speech laws are applied. Very obviously very selective.

‘Censored’ posters restored after Canberra cafe closed over Donald Trump, Elon Musk Nazi images

‘Censored’ posters restored after Canberra cafe closed over Donald Trump, Elon Musk Nazi images. By Nathan Schmidt at news.com.au.

A Canberra cafe temporarily closed after its owner allegedly refused to remove “anti-fascist” posters depicting Donald Trump and Elon Musk in Nazi uniforms …

[It has since] restored the controversial images with “censored” now scrawled across them.

ACT Police were called to the Dissent Cafe and Bar in the Canberra CBD on Wednesday after a complaint of “possible hate imagery” displayed at the licensed premises.

Of course people should be free to depict politicians like this. Free speech. And we are free to think such speakers are idiots, and not go their cafe. Imagine — Trump is the only “fascist” who shrinks his government, battles for free speech, permits his critics to call him awful names with impunity, sometimes sides with the Jews, and obeys his judiciary. As I said, idiots.

Australia’s ruling class are enthusiastic, but behind the times. The Democrats in the US are now saying they never called Trump “Hitler.” Get with the times, progressives!

Trump is Hitler? So yesterday

Trump is Hitler? So yesterday. By Defiant L’s.

JB Pritzker [the Governor of Illinois, Democrat]: “I haven’t suggested that Donald Trump is Hitler.”

Nicolle Wallace [American political commentator, author, and television host, best known as the anchor of Deadline: White House on MSNBC]: “I don’t think any Democrat has.”

 

 

David Strom:

For some reason, the Democrats are arguing that they have never called President Trump a Nazi or a racist, and Pravda is doing their best to back them up. …

There must be polling showing that their most ridiculous accusations are not helping their cause and are hurting their credibility with all but the most insane folks out there. …

What I still can’t wrap my head around is that there actually ARE Americans who still trust and admire these obvious liars. After having endured hoax after hoax, been slapped in the face with the COVID and “sharp as a tack” lies that almost nobody defends, there is a large chunk of Americans who keep going to proven liars and trusting what they say.

How brainwashed do you have to be to trust them now, once you have been burned that badly? And make no mistake, most Democrats know they were burned. They KNOW it wasn’t an innocent mistake that led them to believe Biden was still sentient, yet they keep returning to the same people to find out what they should think. …

I can barely contain my rage at the people who still blindly follow a crowd they know to be going down a dark path. The damage they have done is incalculable. As the transgender trend’s momentum has slowed and will, with God’s help, be pushed back into oblivion outside the most radical circles, almost no Pravda propagandists will be held accountable for their promotion and defense of it, and Democrats who pushed it will still get elected and lionized as great, compassionate leaders. …

In a sane world, we would hold Nuremberg-style trials for the alphabet doctors and politicians who committed these heinous human rights abuses on children; instead, most people will shrug and continue to support the people who should be hanged for atrocities.

The gaslighting works. Brainwashing works. And it seems to work best on people whom you would expect not to be taken in.

Example exposed — on  the Palestinians and the war they started. If only they could leave their neighbors alone. They could have ended the war at any time if only they handed back their hostages and handed over the thugs who took them. This guy below almost became the leader of a major western country. Is he pig-ignorant, severely lacking in judgement, or is he just a foolish liar?

Gaslighting and name-calling are failing for the left. Is war next?

When you hear that Donald Trump and, by extension, we patriots are the most fascist, racist, sexist, corrupt, perverted, and also fascist monsters in the history of ever, you have to wonder something. …

They’re liars and dirtbags, and they are losing their grip on power, and they’re desperate. What you have to wonder is “Where do they go from here?” …

They’re kind of in a quandary. Where do you go next when you call somebody “literally Hitler” and nothing happens? Where do you go when you call somebody “racist” and he doesn’t care? …

Where do you go next when you say the worst things imaginable about someone, and it doesn’t matter?

That’s where we are now, and it should be no surprise to anybody who has ever heard about the boy who cried “Wolf.”…

It used to work, but times have changed:

The point is that hyperbolic slander is the best they’ve got. This is their only weapon right now, and it’s firing blanks.

Remember, they don’t have any power other than what we give them. For them to rule over us requires that we allow them to rule over us. In the past, we defaulted to the American political system, where one party would win the election, and it would take power, exercise power, pass laws the opposition didn’t like, then have another election, and then things would eventually change. We took turns running things. America operated on the consent of the governed. We never really thought about not consenting because the system seemed to work pretty well, not perfectly, but pretty well.

But things changed a couple of decades ago. The Democrats convinced themselves that we conservatives are morally unfit to participate in our own governance, that the act of exercising electoral power won at the ballot box by anyone who wasn’t a leftist was inherently illegitimate.  …

Democrats stopped consenting to being governed when it is our turn to govern. …

We have learned to ignore the left’s words, to not take them seriously. They had lost their credibility.

Donald Trump is pursuing his agenda with a vengeance, or his vengeance with an agenda – either way is good with us.

Double or nothing:

Where do they go from here?

That’s where it gets concerning. There are two ways they can go. They can try to take power back in the appropriate and proper way, which is by winning elections. Whether screaming like five-year-olds having a tantrum because Mommy took their blankie will work to convince the American people to trust Democrats with power again is an open question. …

But remember that these are religious fanatics, and their religion is leftism. The fight against Republicans is not just a political match but an actual jihad.

Again, we’ve already seen people murdered. That should be no surprise. One of the collateral effects of all this screaming about how Donald Trump, and we, are the enemies of humanity who are literally the worst people who have ever existed is that some of these leftist creeps believe it and will act on it. When you simultaneously label your political opponents as outside the bounds of acceptable political discourse, while also losing to those political opponents, you create a level of frustration that is going to drive some of your acolytes to violence. And that won’t be entirely unwelcome to the Democrat establishment. As we’ve seen, they don’t mind violence. …

Now you have state governors and officials collaborating with the left. That takes it all up a notch. The potential is real for real trouble. The hate is out there, and it’s being fueled by the very language we’re talking about here.

But on the right, we’re not in the mood to take any more casualties. We’re not in the mood for games. We are not giving up our dogs to please Dem constituents. And we are definitely not in the mood to become second-class citizens in our own country….

This could get very ugly. These people are playing with fire, but they don’t understand that we’re not going to play along.

Driven by virtue signaling and blinded by their dishonest media, some individuals will push it too far. Then some nasty events will occur, and they will learn the limits of how far they push it. Let’s hope we all survive and can leave peacefully again afterwards.
