Ramblings and rants

If you’ve got some time on your hands these are some good videos to take in before they’re likely censored and removed by ‘YouTube‘. By Joker of Better Bachelor.

Joker’s has a very large following and is part of a much larger movement called “Men going their own way.” There are many other’s doing similar content Coach Greg Adams, Replicantphish and Terrence Popp.

While these sites try to refrain from politics and focus mainly on the dumpster fire that is the relationships between men and women in the 21st century it cannot be denied that leftist politics and 3rd wave feminism go hand in glove

One a more personal note: Unfortunate events have rendered me a single man again. I have been using certain dating apps to explore the possibility of meeting someone for companionship, hopefully in a mutual sense. The age range that I was looking for is over and above anything these ‘MGTOW’ sites ever deal with (fifties, early sixties) . I’ve discovered for the most part that these older women are no different then their younger sisters. Hypergamy rules. They all love to travel, love the beach, hopefully you own a boat, motorcycle, horses, or better yet all three. It would be better if you are tall, handsome, athletic, and have at least a six figure income. Needless to say I’m not in the top 20% of guys these women are looking for. I expect to remain single for the foreseeable future.

Anything quite like this.

Governor Scott has issued a “STAY HOME” order to the people of Vermont.

Gov. Phil Scott ordered Vermonters Tuesday to “stay home” and “stay safe” to slow the outbreak of the coronavirus in Vermont. The order is effective 5 p.m. Thursday until April 15. All businesses “not expressly exempt” must suspend all in-person operations.

Grocery stores are of course exempt. I wonder…what about gas pump handles.

Oh well, I’ve been home two straight days already. Had to snowblow my drivway today. Amazing that it was 65 deg. last friday, then the temperature dropped faster then the stock market. Global warming my ass!

What would Martin Luther King have thought? What has become of his dream.

“But there is something that I must say to my people, who stand on the warm threshold which leads into the palace of justice: in the process of gaining our rightful place, we must not be guilty of wrongful deeds. Let us not seek to satisfy our thirst for freedom by drinking from the cup of bitterness and hatred.

We must forever conduct our struggle on the high plane of dignity and discipline. We must not allow our creative protest to degenerate into physical violence. Again and again, we must rise to the majestic heights of meeting physical force with soul force.

The marvelous new militancy which has engulfed the Negro community must not lead us to a distrust of all white people, for many of our white brothers, as evidenced by their presence here today, have come to realize that their destiny is tied up with our destiny, and they have come to realize that their freedom is inextricably bound to our freedom. We cannot walk alone…”

So what is the state of race relarions nearly three score years after his famous speech? After the (twice) election of Barack Obama whom most everyone who voted for him believed that his election would be the culmination of Dr. King’s dream and that America could finally put the issue of ‘race’ in the rear view mirror and henceforth everyone “would be judge by the content of their character”.   But President Obama, as we know now had a different kind of transformation in mind. Instead of healing Obama picked the scab and insured that Dr. Kings dream would remain just that, unfulfilled. 

Racial harmony is the last thing Progressive Democrats want.  Democrats need a prepetual dependant Black underclass who will always believe that they are “victims” of “white privilege”  and only the Democrat Party will “punish” those “racist” who are causing them to live in “High Crime, Rat Infested” cities.  Cities that have been ruled by Democrats for decades.

==========================================================================

Despite (or because of) the fact that Black unemployment is lowest its been in decades thanks to the Trump economy, the Democrats play the race grevience card practicaly non stop.  Just like during Obama’s Presidency it is of course “RACIST” to criticise any Black politician.

The Democrat Party has cosigned Martin Luther King to the dustbin of history.

==========================================================================

In the left column substitute the word “Black” with “White” and you have a a list of 29 “racist” organizations.

In the right column substitute the word “White” with “Black”, and you have what amounts to society today.

Segregation is alive and well in America, but it ain’t white folks that that are perpetrating it.

It has many names: Marxism, Socialism, Communism, Progressivism.  But it boils down to Totalitarianism.

Once the color of this religion was Red.  Now it is Green on the outside.

The Pilgrims came to the new world to worship God in their own way and to build a “city on a hill”  and all of the people would work together to sustain their fellow men and women. They established a pure Communist community. Everyone would Share the land the food, clothing…Work?

It failed spectacularly.

But human nature soon prevailed. As many of the pilgrims learned, on such a system if one chose not to work, they would still eat because someone else would work to bring in what was needed.

More and more of the pilgrims chose the path of sitting around or faking illness until the nonworkers outnumbered the workers. Women resented the idea of cooking for someone because his wife chose to be a nonworker and, according to Governor Bradford’s memoirs, considered it a form of slavery. It became so bad that at one point each person was rationed to 3 to 4 pieces of corn per day. You read that right – PIECES (or kernels) of corn. They were starving

Bradford scrapped the system. Gave every family a plot of land, reminded them of Genesis 3:19 , and that the product of their labor was theirs to do as they saw fit. After the next harvest the colony was awash in abundance. 

The flaw that doomed the Communist experiment is apparent. Do you know what it is? *

Then in the middle of the 19th century came Marx and Engels . They formulated a theory that claimed all of human history  {and future} could boiled down to economics and class. While totally ignoring human nature.

Lenin and later Stalin  knew something that Marx didn’t.  That Socialism would never be successful unless human nature was crushed.

Which brings us to today.  Education, media, and the culture have been under leftest domination since the 1960’S.  Millennials don’t have a clue how bad Socialism can be even when the latest example of Socialism’s failure, the human disaster that is Venezuela is unfolding right before their eyes.

*When the pilgrims experiment with Communism proved to be an abject failure they quickly abandoned it.  Unlike Russia, Mongolia, China, Cuba, and Venezuela the pilgrims didn’t have a secret police and an atheist ideology to ensure that “those who do not work, will not eat”.

And Finally.

If you can find someone who will talk honestly about single-payer, you will usually find the pro side talking about how it’s “fairer” or “cheaper” than market-based systems (I’d contest the second, but we don’t really have any market-based systems to compare with) but will usually admit that the outcomes are better in our system (as I said, you have to find someone on the pro side willing to be honest, which is rarer than a hen’s tooth). That’s bullshit. What it’s all about is, like most lefty garbage, is manufactured virtue. “Oh, look at how COMPASSIONATE I am, I want healthcare to be FREE”. In fact, isn’t that kind of a hallmark of all left-wing, totalitarian systems? Using force and theft “for the greater good”, the unstated premise being that individuals won’t do it on their own. Thus the entire wold view of left wing systems is inherently contradictory: Their totalitarian approach is necessary because people are inherently bad (Hmmm, smells a lot like “original sin” to me), yet their systems won’t work unless you also believe in the perfectibility of man (which will be accomplished through force). No wonder these people are crazy.

And it will be the same when it comes to environmental regulations like the Green New Deal . Saving the planet will be MANDATORY.  You will be made to care.  Or else.

 

 

 

 

 

• It used to be the boast of free men that, so long as they kept within the bounds of the known law, there was no need to ask anybody’s permission or to obey anybody’s orders. It is doubtful whether any of us can make this claim today.”

Friedrich August von Hayek, (1899-1992)

• All government is authoritarian; and the more democratic a government is the more authoritative it is; for with the people behind it, it can push authority further than any Tsar or foreign despot dare do.”George Bernard Shaw

• “Good intentions will always be pleaded for every assumption of authority. It is hardly too strong to say that the Constitution was made to guard the people against the dangers of good intentions. There are men (and women) in all ages who mean to govern well, but they mean to govern. They promise to be good masters, but they mean to be masters.”
  Daniel Webster

• “Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction.”
  Ronald Reagan

• “One of the greatest delusions in the world is the hope that the evils in this world are to be cured by legislation.”
  Thomas B. Reed

• “Where you find the laws most numerous, there you will find also the greatest injustice.”
  Arcesilaus, Greek philosopher and student of Plato

• The plain fact is that education is itself a form of propaganda – a deliberate scheme to outfit the pupil, not with the capacity to weigh ideas, but with a simple appetite for gulping ideas ready-made. The aim is to make ‘good’ citizens, which is to say, docile and uninquisitive citizens.”
  H.L. Mencken

• “As the old saying goes, ‘money is power’ and the more money the government takes, the more power it has over individuals.”

For those 6 or 7 people that may actually read my blog from time to time. you will not the my previous post on Aleksander Solzhenitsyn is missing and the one before it different it was I tried out a new version of “WordPress” and it was a disaster. 

In going back to the version I was used to I lost my last two posts.

Moral of the story is… “if it ain’t broke don’t fix it.
