B-Man Posted January 6, 2022 Posted January 6, 2022 MICHAEL ANTON: Fighting the impulse for national divorce with spousal abuse. FTA: Blue America’s message problems don’t stop there. The remainder boil down to the ruling class’s stance on democracy—both with respect to specific issues and to the overarching concept itself. As to the former, Blues insist that any policy Reds want that Blues don’t is ipso facto illegitimate, or worse. Border wall? Workplace enforcement? Skills-based immigration? All not merely unacceptable, but “racist” and evil. Tariffs or some form of protection for American workers and industries? Unacceptable, unworkable, economically illiterate—and also racist, if only because everything Reds want is. Ditto the Red desire to stop fighting endless, pointless, winless war and to reduce America’s overseas commitments. Strategic folly, a betrayal of allies and of our “core values,” collusion with our enemies, even “treason.” (And, of course, it’s racist to doubt the efficacy or strategic value of democracy wars in the Third World.) It’s important to understand, lest one fall into a common Blue propaganda trap, that these policy positions favored by millions of Reds are not “conservative” as that term has been understood for at least a generation. The “conservatives” have consistently supported open, or at least lax, borders, rigid free trade, and ground troops wherever a single Islamic extremist might wistfully contemplate striking the West. As for the slander that these positions are somehow “far right,” one need only be over 40 to remember a time when Democrats were the party of protectionism and peace, when even Bill Clinton and the New York Times professed support for limiting immigration. Suddenly all that is not merely unacceptable; it’s fascism. Blue America makes very clear to Red: you deserve and will get none of this. There will be no compromise. You are evil merely for wanting it, much less voting for it. Should you manage, against our every effort and precaution, to elect people who threaten to enact these things, we will be justified in “resisting”—i.e., blocking implementation by any means necessary—to protect “our democracy.” On New Year’s Day, the New York Times—arguably the most powerful institution of any kind in America—thundered that all opposition to the Blue agenda is violent insurrection. Hilariously, the Times intones that a “healthy, functioning political party faces its electoral losses by assessing what went wrong and redoubling its efforts to appeal to more voters the next time.” Really? Was that the Democratic response to 2016? Or that of Stacey Abrams and all her supporters—none of whom, including the vice president of the United States—has ever conceded that she lost in 2018? https://americanmind.org/salvo/blue-americas-messaging-problem/ Read the whole thing.

The article is still up but they changed the headline and deleted the tweet thread. "They were born that way" sounds eerily similar to the tagline that was once used to push another paraphilia towards mainstream acceptance. 1
LeviF Posted January 16, 2022 Posted January 16, 2022 (edited) Let’s check in on democracy savers: https://www.rasmussenreports.com/public_content/politics/partner_surveys/jan_2022/covid_19_democratic_voters_support_harsh_measures_against_unvaccinated Quote – Fifty-eight percent (58%) of voters would oppose a proposal for federal or state governments to fine Americans who choose not to get a COVID-19 vaccine. However, 55% of Democratic voters would support such a proposal, compared to just 19% of Republicans and 25% of unaffiliated voters. – Fifty-nine percent (59%) of Democratic voters would favor a government policy requiring that citizens remain confined to their homes at all times, except for emergencies, if they refuse to get a COVID-19 vaccine. Such a proposal is opposed by 61% of all likely voters, including 79% of Republicans and 71% of unaffiliated voters. – Nearly half (48%) of Democratic voters think federal and state governments should be able to fine or imprison individuals who publicly question the efficacy of the existing COVID-19 vaccines on social media, television, radio, or in online or digital publications. Only 27% of all voters – including just 14% of Republicans and 18% of unaffiliated voters – favor criminal punishment of vaccine critics. – Forty-five percent (45%) of Democrats would favor governments requiring citizens to temporarily live in designated facilities or locations if they refuse to get a COVID-19 vaccine. Such a policy would be opposed by a strong majority (71%) of all voters, with 78% of Republicans and 64% of unaffiliated voters saying they would Strongly Oppose putting the unvaccinated in “designated facilities.” – While about two-thirds (66%) of likely voters would be against governments using digital devices to track unvaccinated people to ensure that they are quarantined or socially distancing from others, 47% of Democrats favor a government tracking program for those who won’t get the COVID-19 vaccine. How far are Democrats willing to go in punishing the unvaccinated? Twenty-nine percent (29%) of Democratic voters would support temporarily removing parents’ custody of their children if parents refuse to take the COVID-19 vaccine. That’s much more than twice the level of support in the rest of the electorate – seven percent (7%) of Republicans and 11% of unaffiliated voters – for such a policy. These are no longer fellow citizens and countrymen. They’re lunatics and enemies. Edited January 16, 2022 by LeviF 2

Lol they don't mind the idea at all. They only conclude that the President might not have enough power to do so - and they don't say he shouldn't... The entire piece is basically "yea, price controls are probably a bad idea.......BUT IF DONE CORRECTLY (I.E. A DEMOCRAT IN OFFICE) then maybe some to a limited extent will help: "Still, with annual inflation running at a four-decade high of 7% and midterm elections approaching, price controls could feature in future debates about how to reduce prices, particularly if actions taken this year by the Federal Reserve fail to tame inflation. Limited price controls are also present in the US economy today. Some cities cap rents or the amount landlords can hike them each year, while government agencies limit the price that some monopolistic utilities charge. Modern politicians tend to put their faith in the Federal Reserve's ability to control inflation, but the central bank may struggle to address price hikes that are caused by supply chain issues resulting from the pandemic."

I don’t want to just paste the entire article because of how wrong you are… but you are the poster who thought Canada is the US… so most of the start: So should governments consider setting the price of essential goods? It's been done before, typically during times of crisis, but for most mainstream economists, the answer to this question is a resounding "no." Limiting how much companies can charge will distort markets, they argue, causing shortages and exacerbating supply chain problems while only temporarily reducing inflation. "Price controls can of course control prices — but they're a terrible idea," David Autor, a professor of economics at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, remarked in a survey published earlier this month by the University of Chicago. ……. To quote the article…. Just stop, seriously Just stop. Seriously," Austan Goolsbee, a professor at the University of Chicago, said in response to the question. Goolsbee previously served as chairman of the Council of Economics Advisers under former President Barack Obama.
Precision Posted January 18, 2022 Posted January 18, 2022 I think the acceptance/embracement of sexual deviants and deviancy is a left-wing position. The LGBTQ community is clearly in the left camp and many people may consider that deviant behavior (personally, I don't care if you're into bestiality, just stating that some would consider it deviant). The left has always been soft on crime and would clearly be the preferred party of individuals that commit sexual crimes. The Hollywood crowd has always leaned far left and are consistently committing sexual abuse. A recent look at politicians shows sexual harassment/misconduct to be more prevalent among democrats than republicans. 2
Albwan Posted January 20, 2022 Posted January 20, 2022 (edited) Beautiful UCLA grad student stabbed to death in LA… Shawn Laval Smith, 31, should be considered armed and dangerous, according to the LAPD. Los Angeles County Jail records show Covina police arrested him on Oct. 27, 2020, on a misdemeanor charge. He was released on $1,000 bail. The outcome of that case was not immediately clear. Smith has a rap sheet that spans both coasts, including in San Francisco and South Carolina. His most recent charge is for shoplifting — and he landed up in jail in San Mateo after assaulting a police officer. Los Angeles District Attorney George Gascon’s office did not immediately respond to a request for comment. I got a left wing position right here: embracing and going easy on criminals. Denying the hard cold facts of FBI statistics... Edited January 20, 2022 by Albwan
Doc Posted January 20, 2022 Posted January 20, 2022 The people who facilitate the release of this lowlife need to be held accountable. I hope they explore lawsuits against those responsible.
B-Man Posted January 20, 2022 Posted January 20, 2022 WILLIAM ESTRADA: Parents Are Winning. That’s Why Far Left Is Turning Us Into Bogeymen. Are “parental rights” some secret Bat Signal for right-wing evangelicals? The answer is yes, if you are writing for Salon. In a recent article, author Kathryn Joyce argued that “parental rights” is really the latest attempt of right-wing evangelicals to win elections. Joyce has a long history of trying to pin blame on right-wing evangelicals. She has previously attacked international adoptions and large families only if they’re Christians (not any other faith, or lack thereof). So, it is not particularly surprising that now that parents from across the political spectrum are speaking up, she’s ready to blame it all on her favorite scapegoat: right-wing evangelicals. Except it’s false: Parents from across every racial, demographic, ethnic, and political background are fighting against bureaucrats over who will decide basic questions regarding the education, upbringing, and care of their children. It’s not just right-wing evangelicals. It’s parents from across the political, religious (and nonreligious), and demographic spectrums. Targeting a broad spectrum of concerned parents as domestic terrorists was probably the America Left’s most damaging self-own this century. But given that leftism has no limiting principles and the inherent illegitimacy of their power, they also had no choice but to try. Which tells you pretty much all you need to know about leftism. https://www.dailysignal.com/2022/01/19/parents-are-winning-thats-why-the-far-left-is-turning-us-into-bogeymen/
B-Man Posted February 3, 2022 Posted February 3, 2022 In 2001, Democrats blocked the nomination of Miguel Estrada to serve on the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit. According to internal strategy memos obtained by the Wall Street Journal, they targeted Estrada at the request of liberal interest groups who said Estrada was ‘especially dangerous’ because ‘he is Latino, and the White House seems to be grooming him for a Supreme Court appointment.’ They did not want Republicans to put the first Hispanic on the Supreme Court. So, Biden and his fellow Democrats killed Estrada’s nomination — the first appeals court nominee in history to be successfully filibustered. It paid off when President Barack Obama nominated Sonia Sotomayor as the first Hispanic justice. Democrats’ commitment to diversity is a ruse. Biden was willing to destroy the careers of an accomplished Latino lawyer and a respected Black female judge, and stop Republicans from putting either on the Supreme Court. For Democrats, it’s all about identity politics.”...................(THE left-wing position) https://www.wsj.com/articles/SB106877910996248300 http://www.cnn.com/2003/ALLPOLITICS/09/04/estrada.withdraws/ 1
