The Week in Radical Leftism, 09/13/2019

Brother Bob

Ah, fall is here – the heat is breaking, the mosquitos are finally disappearing, football is back, and our Lefty pals remain bat (guano) crazy! First we jump into the wayback machine and drop a few stories we missed along the way:

8/23 – The tragic — and overlooked — fallout from the ’60s sexual revolution

An interesting take on how ideas that seem fine on the individual level can have bad & unintended consequences on the macro level.



8/24 – Public schools are ‘ripping parents off’ with classroom supplies scheme

Having just done this, I can relate. While I’m not worried about this kind of waste happening at Little Bob’s school, I’m fine with the extra trouble of buying everything ourselves & saving a few bucks.

9/3 – The Right Needs To Adopt This Revolutionary Higher Ed Reform Plan Now

A bit long, but it’s up to the usual level of quality you’d expect from The Federalist. Of course, I’m wondering if the article ripped off some of the brilliance I dropped on this topic seven years ago!

9/3 – AOC Fund-Raised For Antifa

In a sane world this would be enough to get Gulab Barbie run out of office

9/4 – A SHAMELESS LYING MSNBC HACK IS THE FACE OF THE MEDIA

Two words: Rachel Maddow. This is the face of The Radical Left’s favorite “news” network. Basically, a female Keith Olbermann without a cool past.

9/5 – ILHAN OMAR: GOVERNMENT PURPOSELY INFECTING ILLEGAL ALIENS WITH MUMPS

In the words of the great Damien Sandow, “Ignorance is temporary. Stupidity is forever.” – Part I

9/6 – Drew Brees Goes From Saint To Martyr In Liberal Media Hit Job

The Radical Left continues to get more brazen with their anti-Christian bigotry

9/6 – The Dirty Extractive Underbelly of Clean Energy

This is another point I’ve been arguing for a while. Of course, this is a subset of my main argument with Global Warm-Mongers – if this is such a crisis, why has nobody come up with any kind of Project Plan? I’m just talking broad strokes – We consume X amount of energy. Here are the sources we get it from now. Here is what we want to get to. Here is where our new energy plants will go and how much resources are needed to build them. Of course, we all know why these plans don’t exist.

9/7 – The Progressive Cult – Explained

Insight into the religion for people who think that they’e too smart to have a religion

9/7 – ‘Housing is a right’ says Ocasio-Cortez, and this is why she’s a million percent WRONG

“Ignorance is temporary. Stupidity is forever.” – Part II

9/7 – South Jersey Uber driver kicks gay couple out of car over sexual orientation

If you’re wondering why you haven’t heard the story, note the color of the driver. I tune into Phillyvoice because it has the best Eagles analysis, but then found something worth reading beyond sports. Even though the site’s politics are irritatingly Leftist, the comments section is dominated by Conservatives – always a fun read!

9/8 – It’s Official: The Democrats Just Want You Dead

As much as I like Dr. Seb Gorka, his headline is a bit over the top and distracts from the otherwise good points that he makes.

9/8 – Beating the War Drums

Same day, same publication, but Pedro Gonzalez paints a more detailed & gloomier picture than the last link.

9/9 – Video: Jim Mattis Turns Andrea Mitchell Into Brave Sir Robin, “Run Away!”

Sometimes a story gets linked here simply for having a great title. This is one of those times.

9/10 – One America News Network files $10 million defamation lawsuit against Rachel Maddow, MSNBC, and corporate parents

The headline doesn’t tell the whole story – the bigger piece is parent company AT&T refusing to carry OANN on Comcast channels. This could have a massive ripple effect.

9/11 – NYT Suggests Planes, Not Terrorists, Were Responsible For 9/11 Attacks

“Ignorance is temporary. Stupidity is forever.” – Part III

9/11 – The Media Has A Problem Covering 9/11

Most of America: “Our opinion of the MSM can’t possibly get any lower!”
Private Pyle: “Hold my jelly doughnut.”

CNN’s Brian Stelter tweeted a segment by his colleague John Avlon, with the chyron reading, “America’s 9/11 Amnesia.”

Avlon attacked President Trump, before pivoting to what he calls, “another form of violent extremism: white nationalist terrorism.”

“Here’s a startling statistic,” he drones on. “Since 9/11 right wing terrorists have killed more people in the United States than jihadist terror. That’s according to New America.”

9/12 – For many journalists predictions have been more important than facts

For giggles I decided to look at the archives of the yahoo who is cited as the authoritative source. Here is one post from December of 2016 from this nonpartisan source, praising the Obama economic record!

9/13 – Is California professionalizing college sports?

American Thinker’s Don Griffin’s support of this idea is flawed, but certainly an idea worth discussing.

From the archives, since Wednesday was the anniversary of 9/11 let’s go to the great web site Project 2996 that commemorates all of the victims. I know, I should have posted this a week ago in case any of you wanted to participate, but jumping in is not time sensitive. Here’s my contribution from ten years ago.

Have a great weekend!
