Including the FBI.

Winning the meme wars as we are losing our Republic. Sad, isn’t it.

5JC

Your Voltaire Quote was actually written by Neo-Nazi, white supremacist, kiddie pornographer Kevin Alfred Strom.

5JC

Maybe you should, at least for quotes. It makes you appear less than well read.

Setting aside the implied victimhood of the post, when you quote certain people you send a message.

Voltaire is another one who is widely misattributed on line. He wrote a large body of work, much of it on French Politics. If it doesn’t sound old French, it probably wasn’t him.

Hubristic Hubert

For 5JC

This is not your blog Sonny.

If you do not like how business is conducted around here, go somewhere else and bloviate.

Perhaps you could start your own blog and demonstrate how well read you are over there.

5JC

Sounds like facts don’t matter to you. It doesn’t change something from being true. That is kind of sad. You have my pity.

Hatchet

Consideration always trumps Pity..
Try it. You might like it. 😀

I’ve considered it.

Still not true.

The down votes are telling. In this particular case and context they are not only the most hilariously ironic thing I have seen all month but also a badge of honor.

SFC D

They’re telling, but you’re not listening.

5JC

Nope, I listen but the consensus gentiumis absurd. Valley of the blind and all.

SFC D

Let’s skip the Latin and use clear, concise English. You don’t know what you’re hearing. What you hear is the sound of people reacting to arrogant, condescending posts. It doesn’t matter if you’re right if you’re an obnoxious prick about it. No one will listen.

Hatchet

To paraphrase that certain saying in that certain Western movie – ‘Badges? We don’t need no stinking badges’. And neither should you..

And this is exactly why this blog has lost so many of the old posters, Sonny

‘If it doesn’t sound old French, it probably wasn’t him.’

Une charge complète de merde..

And if it doesn’t sound Jewish – it probably wasn’t Disraeli..?

I’m just here to say the rest of us have confidence in you Skipper.

As penance for wrongthinking and drawing out the condemnation of media bot functionaries (recon by fire be messy, yo) …I fixed it.

I’ve learned my lesson, true statements misattributed to great minds is nazisms, or something.

Well played.

5JC

Well no, you missed the beautiful point in the forest. When I criticize and bring the actual truth people get very upsetty and want to try to make me stop. Those people are on the right.

It’s almost poetry.

Roh-Dog

Or, hear me out, you have the tact of a bull moose during the rut and don’t know when to quit when you’ve articulated a point without attribution or source.

As a minor quibble, I fixed it (see above) and also wasn’t directly addressing you.

Take that the way you’d like.

You’re not a victim here, but please don’t stop making friends and influencing people.

You’re doing a stellar job!

SFC D

It has nothing to do with right, left, center, anything political. It has everything to do with being a tactless, arrogant know-it-all. You’ve mastered it.

Hatchet

‘actual truth’..? You forgot to check on the left for the other beautiful point in your forest..

I don’t care who said it. It is both true and accurate.

Roh-Dog

Oh, won’t you give me three slides, give me three slides a-Memester, and we’ll never ‘ave ‘lectionstolen no mo’

White wine makes for an evil hangover.

ON WITH THE SHITSHOW!

I can’t wait for machine guns to be “‘legal'” again, but unfortunately, just like every other reason Leftoids cite for ‘leaving this evil country’ (abortion laws, war, PDJT, freedom in general), this change will not hasten their exits.

(MGs, DDs, AOWs, and other weapons of war are not ‘illegal’, they’re just a threat to Our Masters)

ATGM’s too..? Say it isn’t so.

One proposed test for “arms” was,

Can one normal adult carry and wield it unassisted,

to hit a single average-man sized opponent within 50 yards,

and no one else?

It is amazing how much that covers. An ATGM with an inert warhead passes, as does a belt-fed MG. Grenades won’t pass.

It fits 1791 or 2023.

Roh-Dog

So…. no grape shot in the cannons then?

What if my blockade runner is broadside to a boat of scalawag, scum sucking Unionists that me an’ my boys have a good chance to splinter their pilothouse amidship but only charge for that last canister?

Shall I inform them thus, convention states that a pack o’ spheres is but too dangerous for our application! Do we find a trivial desire or concrete need for war weapons?

“Tradition dictates we tickle those heathens wit’ the softest of downy feathers, so say yer prayers boys for to’nite we sleep in The Deep!”

“Fire off the canister, make fast along side, and “Away Boarders”, we’ll resupply from their Heathen stores. Bounty of an extry ration of grog for all survivors.”

Captain Rhett Butler approves this message.

Hatchet

‘An ATGM with an inert warhead passes, as does a belt-fed MG. Grenades won’t pass.’

‘K, so R9X Hellfire’s and belt-fed MG’s are OK..?
*whew* Good. That still leaves a lot of toys er, tools one can make use of..

That Foghorn Leghorn/Henry Hawk meme is a good one. Very true.

The one on the 1st, 4th, and 2nd Amendment – I’d be careful sharing that one. The progs will say that the 2nd doesn’t apply to modern weapons… and the 4th doesn’t apply to electronic surveillance, and the 1st doesn’t apply to non-print media, and they’ll bring on the complete fascist-marxist state.

Sapper3307

And one to grow on.

And just in case the Commie-Tsar-ZEK is feeling left out –

The Diversity Officer Employment Aptitude Test
Demand for Diversity Officers may have peaked and may even be on the wane. The Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion hustle is running its course and may soon be out of steam, but it’s not too late to collect your share of the loot. This means you shouldn’t delay applying for one of the lucrative positions carrying the generic title of “DEI Officer.” While the typical DEI position requires no expertise of any sort, it does require a collection of attitudes toward your fellow men and women, an ability to utter shameless platitudes and clichés, and embrace a clearly identifiable and primitive Manichean worldview grounded in paranoia.
If you aim to become a promising candidate for a Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) position, either in the corporate world or in academia, you can easily discover if you have the necessary self-conscious virtue by taking this five-minute employment aptitude survey.
Answer “Yes” to the following statements if you agree, and add or subtract the points assigned for each question based on your Yes answer. Then score yourself by comparing your results with those in the chart at the end. Good luck!
1) I am not appreciated for my many talents. +3
2) I am inherently suspicious of others. +3
3) I believe that America is the land of opportunity. -3
4) I believe that I have access to truths denied to others. +5
5) I believe that I must work hard for my reward. -3
6) I believe in a world that is divided into oppressors and oppressed, exploiters and exploited and that these groups are easily identified by the color of their skin. +5
7) I believe that I can work to give in-groups preferential treatment while simultaneously saying that there are no racial or gender preferences at our institution. +3
8) I believe that I should bring my “authentic self” to work, irrespective of any other considerations. +5

Jahwohl, comrade! (Replying for Lars.)

9) I believe, like Frederick Douglass, that in America, one can pull oneself up “by the bootstraps” to succeed. -7
10) If I fail in my job, I immediately search for the reason in causes external to me, such as the “system” or the “unearned advantages” available to other people. +7
11) If people question me and ask for evidence for what I say, I immediately attack them for their “resistance” to the truth that I offer in my story. +5
12) I believe that “indigenous” forms of knowledge such as the “medicine wheel” and the “talking stick” should be incorporated into our scientific discourse. +7
13) I always list my pronouns in my email signature and social media profiles. +3
14) I recognize that today’s “Diversity” office resembles the Soviet Union’s old Political Commissariat, where political ideologues occupied positions to report on the political reliability of those who actually worked to accomplish the mission. -10  BONUS POINTS: If you know this but believe it’s a good thing. +15
15) Anyone who disagrees with the lofty goals of “Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion” is guilty of “diversity resistance.” +5
16) I believe that a doctorate in education, sociology, or gender studies is every bit as important and impressive as a doctorate in physics. +3
17) When people respond to my charges of “racism” in a particular company or university, with bothersome requests for evidence, examples, or proof, I complain of being attacked, invalidated, and dehumanized rather than taking the opportunity to prove my point. +5
18) I believe that “stories” and “narratives” are just as important and as convincing as knowledge grounded in logic, reason, and the scientific method. +7
19) As women are 50 percent more likely to earn bachelor’s degrees than men, this shows we need to do everything we can to support women in higher education. +3

20) I am familiar with the racialist statement “skinfolk aren’t always kinfolk,” and I look with suspicion at persons with whom I share the superficial characteristic of race but who disagree with me. +7
21) I routinely drop the word “systemic” into conversations. +3
22) I use the terms “white supremacy” and “white privilege” comfortably and un-ironically, without awareness that they are equivalent to scapegoat devil terms such as the bourgeoisie, or Kulaks, or International Jewry, or infidels to explain all the bad that happens. +5
23) I believe that the best method for advancing our knowledge and understanding of the physical world is logic, reason, and the type of inquiry we call the scientific method. -10
24) I believe that people like Ijeomo Oluo, Paulo Freire, Ibram Kendi, and Derald Wing Sue have important things to say about our society that get to the inner truth. +5
24) I don’t pay much attention to the fantasies, “stories,” and pseudoscience of Ijeomo Oluo, Paulo Freire, Ibram Kendi, and Derald Wing Sue. -7
25) I believe in something called “diversity science,” which substantiates the basic beneficial tenets of the diversity agenda. +5
26) I believe that “diversity science” is pseudo-scientific twaddle fabricated by off campus nonprofits and imported into universities and the corporate world. -10
27) The Brazilian educationist Paulo Freire and his Pedagogy of the Oppressed inspires me to work for social justice, emancipation, and against oppression in all its forms. +5
28) I know that Paulo Freire was a crypto-Maoist who borrowed almost all of his education theory from Mao Zedong’s murderous Cultural Revolution, which Freire greatly admired. -5 BONUS POINTS: If you know this but believe it’s a good thing. +15 .
29) I believe any disagreement with my worldview can be overcome with more “education.” +3

30) I divide society into “oppressors” and “oppressed,” “exploiters” and “exploited,” and I know that this is a primitive Manichean way of looking at society that resembles a medievalist world divided into “infidels” and “believers.” +5 BONUS POINTS: If you do this and believe it’s a good thing. +5
31) I believe in “inclusion and belonging” as fervently as any member of Reverend Moon’s Unification Church believes in “peace and unity.” +3
32) I believe that I have attained “critical consciousness” and that those who disagree with my ideology are afflicted with “false consciousness” and must be taught to embrace a new belief system. +5
33) I believe that “critical consciousness” and “false consciousness” constitute a tautological contrivance that updates Karl Marx’s notion of “class consciousness” for race and gender sensibilities. -5 BONUS POINTS: I recognize that critical consciousness is the latest play on Plato’s cave allegory from his Republic of the 4th century B.C. -5 DOUBLE-BONUS POINTS: If you know the foregoing and believe they are good things. +15
I don’t know who Plato is. +10
34) I believe that the poetry of Audre Lorde is profound, particularly her “master’s tools” line. +2
35) I recognize that Audre Lorde’s “master’s tools” line is pedestrian. -7
36) “Inclusion and belonging” sounds too close to a cult slogan for me to feel comfortable with it. -7
37) I believe that I should be called “Doctor” just like Jill Biden because I wrote a 120-page “dissertation” for my Ed.D. that explores my feelings about the education program I just completed, and which required zero research. +7
38) I am thrilled—thrilled—that “I finally get to use my master’s degree” in educational leadership to bring people to critical consciousness. +3

Good candidate? You make the call!
+40 and above: Welcome aboard, commissar! Get ready to Do the Work!
+39-30: Not the perfect package but you’re ready to share authentic stories, struggle against “supremacy,” and do some dismantling!
+29-20: A few more weeks of amplifying “marginalized voices” should bolster your score
+19-10: You’re not committed enough—time for a “difficult dialogue” and a “courageous conversation,” capped off with a “Brave Space”
+9-0: Hands behind your back—your struggle session is through that door.
-1 and below: Racist!

Because TAH is always inclusive…
