THE POSTMODERN LEFT, OUR FIFTH COLUMN:

Postmodern leftists hate MORE than just the USA; they hate Western Civilization itself. They hate it because they blame it for:
  • sexual repression; 
  • Third World poverty; 
  • most of history's genocide; 
  • and global pollution is killing people and which threatens an imminent global climate catastrophe.
Each of these postmodern leftist positions is demonstrably false, but are now accepted as basic presuppositions by today's postmodern left.

FACTS:
  • In the 20th C alone, socialism killed more people than did Judeo-Christianity in the preceding 19 centuries. Since its inception - and globally - Islam killed more people than socialism - or any other ideology... EVER.
  • Industrialization has extended life-spans and living standards; it doesn't hurt them. Life-spans and living standards are lower in the un-industrialized Third World. And they were lower in pre-industrialized Europe than in the cities of industrializing Europe; this is why folks on the farm moved to the cites; it's why they still do!
  • The Third World is NOT poor as a result of colonialization - the Third World is poor because they haven't industrialized and have too much socialism. The West did not impoverish the Third World; the Third World's lack of westernization is keeping them as poor now as they have always been.
  • For thousands of years, the West's traditional sexual mores and institutions have helped stabilize families - (the basic building block of society) - and helped families raise pro-social children who grow up to be responsible adults. Societies with non-Western sexual mores and institutions have a poorer record of this, and statistics prove that fatherless homes of any/all races raise criminals and populate our prisons. Wanton sexual promiscuity spreads criminality and disease.
People on the postmodern left ignore history; they ignore socialism's consistent record of failure - both in economic growth AND in delivering goods and services to the masses; they ignore islam's record of tyranny and genocide and intolerance and ignorance; and they have always excused the totalitarianism of their fellow leftists.

The postmodern left also ignores the fact that traditional, bourgeois, capitalist, and industrial societies are responsible for everything good about modern life: our longer and healthier life spans, our greater material prosperity, and our ability to enjoy our innate rights and liberties.

The people on postmodern left are a mix of the brainwashed, the willfully ignorant and the deliberately nihilistic.

Their hatred for the West is why they function as a fifth column for the islamo-fascists; they want the West demolished, and they see the islamists as allies in that cause - allies who are justified to use terror against the "colonial, racist, sexually repressive, polluting, genocidal" West.

Because the postmodern left dominates the academy and the mass media - each which brainwash each succeeding generation, they comprise nearly a third of the West's population - enough in many parliamentary democracies to gain and hold power. The nations where the postmodern left has held power are weaker economically and more vulnerable to islamization and dhimmitude as a result.

And because the West is an alliance of sorts - via transnational institutions such as the UN, NATO, the EU - the postmodern left has weakened our entire civilization.

This is why I have long argued that we need to defeat the postmodern left before we can defeat the islamists.

We currently have a postmodern leftist in the White House. That's why the postmodernists and the islamists and Putin and China and Iran have been doing so well the last few years.

The tide cannot turn until we elect a president who loves the West and wants to defend it.

REPRISE POST: OBAMA AND THE LEFT VERSUS ROMNEY AND THE BOURGEOISIE

OBAMA'S AND WARREN'S AND LAKOFF'S ATTACKS ON BUSINESSMEN ARE NOT RESONATING BECAUSE THE VALUES THAT AMERICAN BUSINESSMEN LIVE BY AND WORK BY ARE AMERICAN BOURGEOIS VALUES.


AND THE VALUES THAT UNDERLIE THE ATTACK ARE LEFTIST AND ALIEN TO AMERICA AND MOST AMERICAN.


HERE'S A SHORT POST I WROTE ON IT FROM 2010 - THAT'S MIGHT BE MORE RELEVANT TODAY:

FOR TOO LONG, POSTMODERNISM HAS AGGRANDIZED ARTISTS, SOCIAL MISFITS AND RENEGADES AS ANTI-HEROES, AND DEGRADED BUSINESSMEN AND THE BOURGEOISIE

SINCE WW1, POSTMODERN LEFTIST PROPAGANDA HAS AGGRANDIZED ARTISTS AND SOCIAL MISFITS AND RENEGADES AS ANTI-HEROES, AND DEGRADED BUSINESSMEN AND THE BOURGEOISIE.


But who has really improved the quality of life for more people?


ARTISTS!?!?!? RENEGADES!?!?! ANTI-HEROES!?!?!?


Apart from enriching producers and art dealers, what has fine art - or commercial art like the movies - really accomplished?


To this day, postmodern leftists are continuously defaming businessmen and the bourgeoisie.


Businessmen?
  • To the postmodern left they're evil greedy despoilers of Gaia.


And the bourgeoisie?
  • To the postmodern left they're avaricious and conspicuous consumers of the crap that the evil greedy businessmen produce.
  • And the bourgeoisie are stupid and "inauthentic, too, because they don't REALLY need or want the crap that the greedy businessmen make. They're just too stupid to know what they really need. [THAT'S THE GIST OF THE LEFT'S ATTACK ON CONSUMERISM.]
THAT'S WHERE THE POSTMODERN LEFT COMES IN:


The postmodern left thinks their elite knows what's really REALLY good for the bourgeoisie. And they want their elite to have to the power over consumption and production so Gaia can be saved and "economic justice" be achieved.


The old-time "classical commies" wanted the proletariat to have control over the means of production so they could be as well off as bourgeoisie - the prole' produced the goods and deserved to consume as much of these goods as anybody else.


But the postmodern leftist wants everyone to be poor - IT'S MORE AUTHENTIC AND BETTER FOR GAIA.


THE TRUTH IS THAT BUSINESSMEN AND THE BOURGEOISIE HAVE DONE MORE TO IMPROVE THE LIFE OF MORE PEOPLE THAN ANYTHING ELSE IN HUMAN HISTORY.


Democracy, limited government, the free-market, as well as the scientific and agricultural and mass production and energy and transportation and pharmacological revolutions which have made our lives longer and healthier and more prosperous are all the result of businessmen and the bourgeoisie.


Nothing any postmodern leftist has EVER done can compare.
  • Leftists - in fact - have genocidally murdered more people and ruined more economies and despoiled more of the Earth in the last 100 years than anything else in human history.
It's time the leftist romantic notion of the artist and social renegade as anti-hero be erased from our civilization.


We can start by ridding our schools - the Academy - of all UNCHECKED postmodernism.


That means having politically diverse faculties and textbooks and reading lists which are not dominated by postmodern leftism.


For every Che-worshipping "Bill Ayers" there has to be a rational Milton Friedman.


Intelligent and reasonable people who get the chance to see BOTH sides - the postmodernist and the modernist - will almost always then see the light.


(This is why the postmodern left wants to squelch Talkradio and frighten people away from FoxNews: they're afraid that once people see both sides they will dump leftism. AND THEY ARE RIGHT!)


It took me a decade after graduating college and escaping the postmodern stranglehold over my intellectual input for me to see the light.


If I can go from a Marcuse-reading Che-adoring commie to a Reagan-loving Hayek-reading right-winger, then anyone can!


ALL WE HAVE TO DO IS MAKE SURE THE KIDS IN SCHOOLS AND COLLEGES SEE BOTH SIDES.

LEGACY MEDIA HELPING OBAMA START A RACE WAR SO HE CAN GET RE-ELECTED

VIDEO HERE.

WHY IS THE OBAMA CROWD DOING THIS?

SIMPLE:

THE OWS FIZZLED AS  CLASS WAR...


... AND SANDRA FLUKE FLUCKED UP AS GENDER WAR.




SO NOW OBAMA AND HIS COMRADES ARE TRYING TO START A RACE WAR.


ALL JUST TO GET OBAMA RE-ELECTED.

IT WON'T WORK, EITHER - BUT THERE''S GOING TO BE A HUGE COST PAID  ANYHOW... IN SOCIAL UNREST.

OBAMA AND HIS ILK DON'T CARE IF THEY DEMOLISH THE USA BECAUSE - AS GOOD LITTLE POSTMODERN LEFTISTS - THEY HATE AMERICA.

OBAMA SAID HE WANTS TO "TRANSFORM" AMERICA.


AND TO "TRANSFORM" THE USA, THEY FEEL THEY FIRST HAVE TO DEMOLISH IT.

WHY DO THEY HATE THE USA AND THE WEST?

SIMPLE:

IN THE TWISTED LITTLE PROPAGANDIZED MIND OF THE POSTMODERN LEFTIST, AMERICA - AND THE WEST THAT WOULD FALL WITHOUT AMERICA'S SUPPORT - IS RESPONSIBLE FOR:
  1. MOST OF THE WORLD'S GENOCIDE - ESPECIALLY RACIAL GENOCIDE; 
  2. SEXUAL REPRESSION;
  3. CATASTROPHIC GLOBAL WARMING;
  4. AND POVERTY - ESPECIALLY THIRD WORLD POVERTY.
ALL OF THESE ARE DEMONSTRABLY, FACTUALLY FALSE.

(1) GENOCIDE: IN THE 20TH CENTURY SOCIALISM KILLED MORE PEOPLE THAN JUDEO-CHRISTIANS DID IN THE PRECEDING 20 CENTURIES.


ISLAM HAS KILLED MORE PEOPLE IN THE LAST 1400 YEARS THAN SOCIALISM AND JUDEO-CHRISTIANITY COMBINED. 


IF YOU WANT TO END GENOCIDE YOU REALLY HAVE TO END BOTH OF THESE UTOPIANIST TOTALITARIAN IDEOLOGIES: SOCIALISM AND ISLAMISM. 
(ODDLY ENOUGH, THEY OFTEN SEEM ALLIES OF EACH OTHER. GEE, I WONDER WHY? COULD IT BE THEY SHARE A COMMON ENEMY? YES!)

(2) SEXUAL REPRESSION: WOMEN'S RIGHTS IS A WESTERN INVENTION - AS IS FREEDOM OF SPEECH AND EXPRESSION AND THE FREEDOM TO ASSOCIATE.

THE NON-WESTERN WORLD REMAINS MORE REPRESSED AND OPPRESSED THAN THE WEST.


UNBRIDLED LIBERTINAGE AND LICENTIOUSNESS - WHICH THE POSTMODERN LEFT SANCTIONS - ALWAYS LEADS TO THE BREAKDOWN OF THE FAMILY - WHICH IS THE FOUNDATION OF SOCIETY AND CIVILIZATION. 
THIS IS PRECISELY WHY THE POSTMODERN LEFT SUPPORTS LIBERTINAGE. 
THE LEFT CYNICALLY INCITES AND EXPLOITS LIBERTINAGE IN ORDER TO DEMOLISH OUR SOCIETY ONLY SO THEY CAN THEN FILL THE VACUUM WITH THEIR TOTALITARIAN STATE. 
IT'S THEIR GRAMSCIAN AGENDA
THEY DON'T SEE THIS AS IMMORAL BECAUSE POSTMODERN LEFTISTS ARE ATHEISTS, THEY DON'T BELIEVE IN NATURAL LAW. 

THIS IS WHY OBAMA CAN APPOINT A PRO-PEDOPHILE DEVIANT LIKE KEVIN JENNINGS TO THE DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION. 
BECAUSE THEY DON'T BELIEVE IN NATURAL LAW, THEY ARE MORAL RELATIVISTS AND HAVE NO BASIS FOR ASSERTING UNIVERSAL LAW EXCEPT IF THEY CAN FORGE - IN THE UN - AN INTERNATIONAL/TRANS-CULTURAL CONSENSUS. 
THIS HAS BEEN PROVEN NEARLY IMPOSSIBLE TO ACHIEVE ANYWHERE OR AT ANY TIME. 
HENCE THEIR IDEOLOGY ALMOST ALWAYS LEADS TO NON-INTERVENTION AND ISOLATIONISM EVEN IN THE FACE OF HORRIFIC AND PREVENTABLE GENOCIDE, FOR EXAMPLE IN RWANDA. 

THIS IS HOW THEIR AMORALITY MORPHS INTO IMMORALITY, EFFECTIVELY.
(3) "CLIMATE CHANGE": INDUSTRIALIZATION IS WHAT HAS LIFTED BILLIONS OUT OF POVERTY AND IMPROVED STANDARDS OF LIVING AND LIFE-SPANS.

YET, THE POSTMODERN LEFT OPPOSES INDUSTRIALIZATION.

THIS IS A SHIFT BECAUSE THE OLD LEFT LIKED INDUSTRIALIZATION.


WHY THE CHANGE? SIMPLE:
IN 1960'S - AS MORE AND MORE BLUE-COLLAR WORKERS BEGAN TO ENJOY MIDDLE CLASS LIFE AND ALIGN THEMSELVES WITH RIGHT-OF-CENTER POLICIES, THE POSTMODERN LEFT DECIDED THAT THE WORLDWIDE SOCIALIST REVOLUTION WOULD NOT ARISE IN THE INDUSTRIALIZED WEST - BUT AMONG THE NON-INDUSTRIALIZED THIRD WORLD (ESPECIALLY IF THE THIRD WORLD COULD ONLY GET NUKES!). 
THE POSTMODERN LEFT HAS BEEN ATTACKING INDUSTRIALIZATION EVER SINCE. 

AGW IS JUST THE LATEST ATTEMPT TO DEMONIZE INDUSTRIALIZATION. 
IN FACT, THE GLOBAL WARMING WE EXPERIENCED FOR ABOUT A DECADE AND UP UNTIL A YEAR OR SO AGO IS ENTIRELY WITHIN PRE-HISTORICAL LEVELS WHEN THERE WERE NO ANTHROPOGENIC CO2/GHG'S. 
AGW IS A POSTMODERN LEFTIST HOAX DESIGNED TO SHACKLE THE INDUSTRIALIZED WEST AND MAKE IT SERVE GLOBAL SOCIALISM.
INDUSTRIALIZATION IS ACTUALLY ONE OF THE GREATEST THINGS HUMANS HAVE EVER ACHIEVED: 
(4) THIRD WORLD POVERTY: IS THE RESULT OF LACK OF TRANSPARENCY, INDUSTRIALIZATION AND FREE ENTERPRISE.
FOR THE PEOPLE IN THE THIRD WORLD TO IMPROVE THEIR LIVING STANDARDS AND LIFE-SPANS THEY NEED TO EMULATE THE WEST AND NOT BECOME MORE DEPENDENT ON THE WEST.
BOTTOM-LINE:


IF WE REALLY WANT TO MAKE POVERTY A THING OF THE PAST - AND END GENOCIDE AND MISOGYNY, THEN WE HAVE TO MAKE POSTMODERN LEFTISM AND ISLAMISM THINGS OF THE PAST.


VOTE ACCORDINGLY.

EUROPE'S POSTMODERN TRANSNATIONALISTS - WHO CONTROL THE EU - ARE SURRENDERING TO GLOBAL JIHAD

Many people wonder how the any of the leaders in Europe could allow the current islamic invasion by so called refugees.

AFTER AL: IT'S CULTURAL SUICIDE.

But it can't be because they are leftists or socialists, after all, Merkel is not a leftist, yet she is leading the effort.

And they can't be deliberately suicidal; they must think they are doing something good.

HERE'S WHY THEY THINK THEY ARE DOING THE RIGHT THING:

The leadership in the EU who are aiding and abetting the Muslim invasion of Europe are postmodern transnationalists who have been brainwashed to believe that European civilization has been a major source of evil in human history, and that nationalism was a major factor and that nationalism is categorically evil - ALL ARE DEMONSTRABLY FALSE.

TAB - 2/2015: [JUST CHANGE LEFTIST TO TRANSNATIONALIST BELOW]
Postmodern leftists hate MORE than just the USA; they hate Western Civilization itself. They hate it because they blame it for:

  • sexual repression; 
  • Third World poverty; 
  • most of history's genocide; 
  • and global pollution which is killing people and which threatens an imminent global climate catastrophe.
Each of these postmodern leftist positions is demonstrably false, but are now accepted as basic presuppositions by today's postmodern left. 

FACTS:

  • In the 20th C alone, socialism killed more people than did Judeo-Christianity in the preceding 19 centuries. Since its inception - and globally - Islam killed more people than socialism - or any other ideology... EVER. 
  • Industrialization has extended life-spans and living standards; it doesn't hurt them. Life-spans and living standards are lower in the un-industrialized Third World. And they were lower in pre-industrialized Europe than in the cities of industrializing Europe; this is why folks on the farm moved to the cites; it's why they still do! 
  • The Third World is NOT poor as a result of colonialization - the Third World is poor because they haven't industrialized and have too much socialism. The West did not impoverish the Third World; the Third World's lack of westernization is keeping them as poor now as they have always been. 
  • For thousands of years, the West's traditional sexual mores and institutions have helped stabilize families - (the basic building block of society) - and helped families raise pro-social children who grow up to be responsible adults. Societies with non-Western sexual mores and institutions have a poorer record of this, and statistics prove that fatherless homes of any/all races raise criminals and populate our prisons. Wanton sexual promiscuity spreads criminality and disease.

Their hatred for the West is why they function as a fifth column for the islamo-fascists; they want the West demolished, and they see the islamists as allies in that cause - allies who are justified to use terror against the "colonial, racist, sexually repressive, polluting, genocidal" West.
Despite the falsehood of their beliefs, any policy which promotes the dissolution of European and Judeo-Christian culture is seen as good by these postmodern transnationalists.

The transnationalists see nationalism and patriotism as ideologies which interfere with their effort to purify Europe of its indigenous culture.

If we want to defeat global jihad, then we must first defeat the postmodernist transnationalists.

THERE'S ONLY ONE THING THE POSTMODERN LEFT THINKS IS DEVIANT:

THERE'S ONLY ONE THING THE POSTMODERN LEFT THINKS IS DEVIANT:

DEVIANCY FROM THE PARTY LINE.
  • HOMOSEXUALITY AND PEDERASTY ARE NOT DEVIANT TO THEM.
  • SEX-CHANGE SURGERY IS NOT DEVIANT TO THEM.
  • EXHIBITIONARY TATTOOING AND BODY-PIERCING IS NOT DEVIANT TO THEM.
  • FAKE BUT ACCURATE "NEWS" IS NOT DEVIANT TO THEM.
  • USING THE IRS TO ATTACK YOUR POLITICAL OPPONENTS IS NOT DEVIANT TO THEM.
YOU KNOW WHAT IS DEVIANT TO THE POSTMODERN LEFT? HERE:
  • BELIEVING THAT MARRIAGE - (WHICH HAS ALWAYS BEEN BETWEEN A MAN AND A WOMAN AND ALWAYS ABOUT HAVING AND RAISING CHILDREN) - SHOULD CONTINUE TO BE BETWEEN A MAN AND A WOMAN, IS DEVIANT TO THE POSTMODERN LEFT.
  • WANTING PEOPLE TO BE JUDGED AS INDIVIDUALS AND NOT ON THE BASIS OF THEIR SKIN COLOR OR GENDER IS DEVIANT TO THE POSTMODERN LEFT.
  • WANTING IMMIGRANTS TO IMMIGRATE LEGALLY IS DEVIANT TO THE POSTMODERN LEFT.
  • WANTING PEOPLE TO KEEP THE FRUITS OF THEIR LABORS AND NOT HAVE IT TAKEN AWAY BY POLITICIANS TO SPEND ON THEIR ALLIES, CRONIES AND SUPPORTERS IS DEVIANT TO THE POSTMODERN LEFT.
IN SHORT:

TO THE POSTMODERN LEFT, IT'S ALL ABOUT ONE-THING:

AFFILIATION, SERVING THE COLLECTIVE - SERVING THE MACHINE:

SERVE THE PARTY AND TOE THE PARTY LINE.... OR.... ELSE.

IF YOU SERVE THE PARTY, THEN YOU WILL BE REWARDED WITH GOODIES, PATRONAGE, SPECIAL STATUS AND SET ASIDES.

IF YOU DEVIATE FROM THE PARTY-LINE, THEN YOU ARE A DEVIANT AND MUST BE SHUNNED UNTIL YOU ARE RE-EDUCATED.

IT'S ALL ABOUT THE PARTY.

  • THE BUNDLE.
  • THE FASCI.
  • THE COLLECTIVE.
  • THE "COMMON GOOD".

PEOPLE WHO BELIEVE IN TRANSCENDENT, UNIVERSAL AND ETERNAL LAWS ARE A THREAT TO THE COLLECTIVE AND SO ATTACKED AS BEING DEVIANTS.

THE COLLECTIVIST/RELATIVIST POSTMODERNISTS MUST ATTACK THE UNIVERSALISTS BECAUSE IN ORDER TO REWARD THE FACTIONS OF THE MACHINE THEY HAVE TO HAVE VIOLABLE, MALLEABLE SITUATIONAL PRINCIPLES.

FOR EXAMPLE:

TO WIN CIVIL RIGHTS FOR BLACKS THEY JOINED THOSE WHO CORRECTLY ARGUED FOR A COLOR-BLIND SOCIETY - AS IF THEY TOO HAD A PRINCIPLE.

BUT, ONCE THEY ATTAINED BLACKS AS A RELIABLE VOTING BLOCK AND BLACKS BECAME AN INTEGRAL PART OF THE MACHINE, THE MACHINE HAD TO REWARD BLACKS BASED ON THEIR SKIN-COLOR - A REVERSAL OF THE PRINCIPLE OF A COLOR-BLIND/MERITOCRATIC SOCIETY.

OWS: COLUMBUS WAS A ZIONIST

FROM THE #OCCUPYWALLSTREET EMAIL LIST:

“Christopher Columbus Was The First Zionist.”

John Hinderaker comments:

“This exchange strikes me as revealing on several levels, but I will close with just two observations:

1) It is a reminder of the sheer volume of ignorant BS that leftists can generate.

2) The only common denominator that binds together these miscellaneous cranks with their various obsessions is their visceral hatred of the United States.”

Posted at 10:07 pm by Glenn Reynolds
JOHN HINDERAKER IS WRONG.
It is not anti-Americanism that ties Columbus to Zionism.

Postmodern Leftism and its anti-colonialism is what ties Columbus to Zionism.


Anti-colonialism is central to postmodern Leftism.

The OWS effort is essentially postmodernist. (The Dems think they can exploit the postmodernists; Obama is actually one of them.)

The postmodern Left sees the Israelis as Jewish interlopers from Europe who stole the land from peace-loving Arabs just as Columbus stole the USA from peace-loving Indians. (And Arabs and Indians also had sustainable economies that were replaced with evil free-markets!)

The postmodern left's presuppositions are bad and their facts wrong. Lets set the record straight and unpack a few of them:

1 - So called indigenous peoples all over the world are better off under our system - as a result of colonialism - and in our culture then they ever were or ever could have been under their own. They all have longer healthier more prosperous lives.


2 - Jews are not interlopers; Jews have lived in the Holy Land continuously for thousands of years. Very few Arabs had ever settled there.

3 - The so-called al aksa Mosque cannot possibly be the one in the Koran; it was built years after Mohamed died; it was dubbed the al aksa mosque by a Turk who was forbidden entrance to Mecca and needed another place to make a pilgrimage to. The real one is in Saudi Arabia. (MOE HERE. And here.)

4 - Arabs are the interlopers in the Holy Land and North Africa.

5 - The Crusades were a counter-offensive and not an offensive; they were waged to expel the invader and not to invade.

The postmodern Left hates everything Western except for Marxism and Freud.


And the postmodern left is responsible for much of the world's prblems:

Because of their deeply anti-West bias, postmodern Leftists are the Fifth Column for global jihad.

Because they oppose the free market, they are major reason the West still has so many socialist programs which slow growth and create dependency - and which are bankrupting the West's governments.

Because they believe in AGW, they are preventing the industrialization of the Third World and are therefore the chief reason the Third World still suffers horrible poverty and short unhealthier lives than those is us lucky enough to live in the West.
THIS IS WHY I HAVE LONG SAID THAT WE NEED TO DEFEAT THE LEFT IF WE WANT TO DEFEAT GLOBAL JIHAD, AND IF WE WANT TO MAKE POVERTY HISTORY.

WHY THE LEFT SUPPORTS GLOBAL JIHAD - AND WHY WE MUST OPPOSE THEM

Postmodern Leftists are principally anti-West. They are anti-American and anti-Israel because the USA is the leader of the West, and they see Israel as an artificial outpost of the West.

There are five reasons why the Postmodern Left hates the West and wants it brought down a notch - at the very least, if not revolutionarily changed beyond recognition.

The Postmodern Left sees the West as the root of all of humanity's problems.

1 - The Left sees the West as the cause of Third World Poverty:

They apparently feel that humans are naturally born into a prosperous world which affords a long life and high living standards, because they fail to see that the West has high living standards and that westerners have long lives because we are industrious, industrialized, capitalistic with rule of law, and free markets. Societies which don't have these things are poor because they are under-developed. Comparing North Korea to South Korea give incontrovertible proof: the South is rich "because of Western hegemony"; the North is poor without it. They are, IOW, just plain wrong. The Third World is poor because they are un-industrialized, have no free-markets, no rule of law and little capitalism.

The postmodern left hasn't a clue that prosperity is created or about how prosperity is created. They think prosperity is a given - that all you need to do is redistribute it. Our current global recession proves this is wrong: wealth has to be created and compounded and reinvested everyday or markets go down. This is why even Obama realizes he can't raise taxes now - because it would retard growth and prolong the recession. Well, if taxes hurt growth in a recession they can't be good - PERIOD. Since the world's population is growing, and much of it is poor, we need a lot more growth all the time. That means lowering taxes is always a good thing to do. Incentivizing an rewarding industriousness is always good, and redistribution schemes always bad.

2 - The Left sees the West as the cause of global-warming and the impending climate change calamity:

The Left feels that AGW - if left unchecked - will eventually destroy the world's economy and make human life unbearable - if not, kill all life on Earth.

Too bad for them that despite ever-increasing levels of man-made atmospheric CO2 the earth is no longer warming. IOW: AGW= BS. And again, the left is just plain wrong.

3 - The Left sees the West - and Judeo-Christian Civilization - as the cause of most of history's genocide:

But, if you add up all the people killed by the West since Rome and Athens were founded over the last 21 centuries it's less than those killed by the Left - in its various forms - just in the 20Th Century. Mao, Stalin, Hitler, Pol Pot, Kim et al killed more people in the 20th Century than all the wars in the West which preceded them.

And Islam killed even more than the Left - killing around 270 million since Mohamed invented his martial creed. So... the Left is wrong again, wrong to deride the West.

4 - The Left sees the West as an invader and a bully in the Middle East, and the Middle East's Arab-Iaraeli conflict as the crux of the current global war:

The Left sees Israel as a colonial outpost of European/Western capitalism. They are wrong again. Arabs and Islam are the true invaders. The Crusades were a counter-offensive, an effort to regain land stolen by the Arabs. Fore the last 2000 years, Jews have lived in the Holy Land continuously, and as recently as the 19Th Century - as contemporaneous reports all indicate - Jewish settlers outnumbered Arabs nomads in the Holy Land. The Left also virtually ignores global jihad in the Philippines, Thailand, Sudan, Nigeria, Algeria, Kashmir and elsewhere - places where Muslim-anti-Muslim violence has actually claimed more lives than all the Arab-Israeli wars combined.


The Left refuses to admit that the Arab-Israeli conflict is but one mere front in global jihad because it undermines their anti-colonialism-template.

5 - The Left sees the West and Judeo-Christian Civilization as the root of unnecessary sexual repression:

The Left feels that Freud was right, that all humans are bi-sexual and poly-amorous, and that any and all laws and traditions which seek to channel or limit humanity's extremely malleable, changeable and elusive sexuality is tyrannical and must be overthrown.

The Left also sees the institutions which have grown out of these "repressive traditions" as competing with state and government institutions which might be both more permissive - (if the state were controlled by postmodernists) - and more invasive and controlling in other arenas, like the economy, health-care, retirement, etc.

IOW, the Left want to get these traditional institutions out-of-the-way so that there is room for statist bureaucracies to take over. Hence the Gramscian Agenda - the Culture Wars.

The Left prefers single-mothers on welfare to wed mothers in Church every Sunday.

These five points are the five fingers of the postmodern leftist fist - the fist they pound into our faces everyday, in every medium, on every front - everyday.

And these are the reasons why - at the very least - they run interference for our enemies in the present global war, WW4. (The Cold War was WW3.) YES: In this war, the postmodern left is at the very least the enemy's Fifth Column.

The Left is allied to global jihad because they feel that global jihad will be able to take the West down a notch, and they feel that once the West - and Judeo-Christian traditions and institutions - are demolished that they'll be able to step into the vacuum and establish their benevolent statist bureaucracy.

THIS IS WHY - IF WE WANT OUT CIVILIZATION TO PERSIST - WE MUST FIGHT THE LEFT AS ARDENTLY AS WE FIGHT GLOBAL JIHAD.

2 - The Left sees the West as the cause of global-warming and the impending climate change calamity:

The Left feels that AGW - if left unchecked - will eventually destroy the world's economy and make human life unbearable - if not, kill all life on Earth.

Too bad for them that despite ever-increasing levels of man-made atmospheric CO2 the earth is no longer warming. IOW: AGW= BS. And again, the left is just plain wrong.

3 - The Left sees the West - and Judeo-Christian Civilization - as the cause of most of history's genocide:

But, if you add up all the people killed by the West since Rome and Athens were founded over the last 21 centuries it's less than those killed by the Left - in its various forms - just in the 20Th Century. Mao, Stalin, Hitler, Pol Pot, Kim et al killed more people in the 20th Century than all the wars in the West which preceded them.

And Islam killed even more than the Left - killing around 270 million since Mohamed invented his martial creed. So... the Left is wrong again, wrong to deride the West.

4 - The Left sees the West as an invader and a bully in the Middle East, and the Middle East's Arab-Israeli conflict as the crux of the current global war:

The Left sees Israel as a colonial outpost of European/Western capitalism. They are wrong again. Arabs and Islam are the true invaders. The Crusades were a counter-offensive, an effort to regain land stolen by the Arabs. Fore the last 2000 years, Jews have lived in the Holy Land continuously, and as recently as the 19Th Century - as contemporaneous reports all indicate - Jewish settlers outnumbered Arabs nomads in the Holy Land. The Left also virtually ignores global jihad in the Philippines, Thailand, Sudan, Nigeria, Algeria, Kashmir and elsewhere - places where Muslim-anti-Muslim violence has actually claimed more lives than all the Arab-Israeli wars combined.

The Left refuses to admit that the Arab-Israeli conflict is but one mere front in global jihad because it undermines their anti-colonialism-template.

5 - The Left sees the West and Judeo-Christian Civilization as the root of unnecessary sexual repression:

The Left feels that Freud was right, that all humans are bi-sexual and poly-amorous, and that any and all laws and traditions which seek to channel or limit humanity's extremely malleable, changeable and elusive sexuality is tyrannical and must be overthrown.

The Left also sees the institutions which have grown out of these "repressive traditions" as competing with state and government institutions which might be both more permissive - (if the state were controlled by postmodernists) - and more invasive and controlling in other arenas, like the economy, health-care, retirement, etc.

IOW, the Left want to get these traditional institutions out-of-the-way so that there is room for statist bureaucracies to take over. Hence the Gramscian Agenda - the Culture Wars.

The Left prefers single-mothers on welfare to wed mothers in Church every Sunday.

These five points are the five fingers of the postmodern leftist fist - the fist they pound into our faces everyday, in every medium, on every front - everyday.

And these are the reasons why - at the very least - the :eft runs interference for our enemies in the present global war, WW4. (The Cold War was WW3.)

YES: In this war, the postmodern left is at the very least the enemy's Fifth Column.

The Left is allied to global jihad because they feel that global jihad will be able to take the West down a notch, and they feel that once the West - and Judeo-Christian traditions and institutions - are demolished that they'll be able to step into the vacuum and establish their benevolent statist bureaucracy.

THIS IS WHY - IF WE WANT OUR CIVILIZATION TO PERSIST - WE MUST FIGHT THE LEFT AS ARDENTLY AS WE FIGHT GLOBAL JIHAD.

MUST SEE TV: THE ORIGINS AND AIMS OF POSTMODERN LEFTISM AND POLITICAL CORRECTNESS

VIA VLAD:








  • POSTMODERN LEFTISM IS THE MOST INFLUENTIAL IDEOLOGY ON OBAMA AND HIS COMRADES.
  • MULTICULTURALISM AND POLITICAL CORRECTNESS ARE TACTICS USED BY POSTMODERN LEFTISTS LIKE OBAMA AND HIS COMRADES.
  • POSTMODERN LEFTISM IS WHAT JUSTIFIES - IN THEIR MINDS -THEIR APPEASEMENT OF GLOBAL JIHAD AND THEIR DESIRE TO SEE THE USA WEAKENED; THEY WANT THE USA WEAKENED IN ORDER THAT THE WEST BECOMES WEAKENED.
  • TO DEFEAT GLOBAL JIHAD - AND END GLOBAL POVERTY - WE NEED TO DEFEAT POSTMODERN LEFTISM.
  • WE CAN WIN A MAJOR BATTLE AGAINST THEM ALL THIS NOVEMBER: VOTE GOP!

LEFTISTS AREN'T "PROGRESSIVES"; THEY'RE TRANSGRESSIVES

JUST SAYING.
trans·gress/transˈgres/ 
Verb:  
Infringe or go beyond the bounds of (a moral principle or other established standard of behavior).
TRANSGRESSING IS PART OF THEIR POSTMODERNIST ESSENCE.

THEY'RE NOT LIBERTARIANS FOR EXPANDING LIBERTY WITHIN THE BOUNDS OF NATURAL LAW.

THEY'RE LIBERTINES WHO BELIEVE "DO WHAT THOU WILT IS THE WHOLE OF THE LAW" BECAUSE THEY ABHOR NATURAL LAW AS REPRESSIVE AND AS POSTMODERNISTS ARE MORAL RELATIVISTS.

TRANSGRESSING THE NORMATIVE IS THEREFORE THEIR POSTMODERN REVOLUTIONARY DUTY. AND THEY CELEBRATE IT.

AND THAT DOESN'T OFTEN IMPROVE SOCIETY.

PROGRESS CONNOTES IMPROVEMENT.

BUT LIBERTINAGE IS NOT PROGRESS.

DISMANTLING INSTITUTIONS THAT HAVE SERVED CIVILIZATION WELL FOR MORE THAN A MILLENNIUM IS NOT PROGRESS.

LEGITIMIZING THE DEVIANT IS NOT A NEW BIRTH OF FREEDOM; IT'S LETTING ALL HELL BREAK LOOSE.

IN OTHER WORDS, YOU DON'T REALLY CUT CRIME WHEN YOU LEGALIZE CRIMINAL ACTS.

ACCORDING TO POSTMODERN LEFTISTS, TO BE AUTHENTIC, ONE MUST ACT UPON ONE'S URGES AND NOT BE BOUND BY ONE'S CULTURE'S REPRESSIVE VALUES, MORE'S, OR INSTITUTIONS.

THE POSTMODERN LEFT EMBRACES THE SO-CALLED "UNFETTERED" LIFE AS ONE MORE REAL AND "MORE LIVED".

BUT SUCH A LIFE IS NOT SO MUCH UNFETTERED AS IT IS UNTETHERED FROM MORALITY AND MATURITY AND CIVILITY.

AS A WISE MAN ONCE SAID,
"The postmodern left has taught Westerners to despise himself, his religion, his culture, and his history.  He no longer has any self-respect.  He no longer has anything left to live for beyond the simple pleasures of daily life.  He will surrender his freedom, his dignity, his culture, his religion - if only his masters will allow him all of the libertine pleasures he can imagine." 
THEY DESIRE A NANNYSTATE THAT APPEASES EXTERNAL ENEMIES AND LET'S ITS SUBJECTS APPEASE THEIR INNER DEMONS.



FOR POSTMODERN LEFTISTS, THE ROAD TO SERFDOM - AND THE ROAD TO HELL ARE ONE.


A VOTE FOR OBAMA IS A VOTE TO GO FURTHER DOWN THAT ROAD - AND PERHAPS BEYOND THE POINT OF NO  RETURN.



VOTE ACCORDINGLY. VOTE ROMNEY.

SURPRISE! SURPRISE: SCUMBUCKET GLENN GREENWALD SUPPORTS HAMAS

HERE'S HOW THE IDIOTIC FALSE MORAL EQUIVALENCE GAME IS PLAYED BY GLENN GREENWALD:
I can't express how many emails I've received in the last week from people identifying themselves as "liberals" (and, overwhelmingly, American Jews); telling me that they agree with my views in almost all areas other than Israel; and then self-righteously insisting that I imagine what it's like to live in Southern Israel with incoming rocket fire from Hamas, as though that will change my views on the Israel/Gaza war. Obviously, it's not difficult to imagine the understandable rage that Israelis feel when learning of another attack on Israeli civilians, in exactly the way that American rage over the 9/11 attacks was understandable.

... for those who insist that others put themselves in the position of a resident of Sderot -- as though that will, by itself, prove the justifiability of the Israeli attack -- the idea literally never occurs to them that they ought to imagine what it's like to live under foreign occupation for 4 decades (and, despite the 2005 "withdrawal from Gaza," Israel continues to occupy and expand its settlements on Palestinian land and to control and severely restrict many key aspects of Gazan life).
FACT: FROM 1967 TO OSLO AND ARAFAT'S RETURN, THE SO-CALLED OCCUPIED TERRITORIES WERE AMONG THE FASTEST GROWING ECONOMIES IN THE ENTIRE WORLD.

FACT: LIFE WAS BETTER FOR GAZANS UNDER ISRAELI "OCCUPATION" - THINGS ONLY STARTED TO GO BADLY FOR THEM ONLY AFTER ARAFAT'S RETURN AND INITIATED THEIR DESCENT INTO ISLAMO-THUGGERY.

NO HUMAN BEING IS BETTER UNDER TYRANNICAL TOTALITARIAN RULE - ESPECIALLY NOT UNDER ISLAMO-FASCIST RULE.

FDR AND ELEANOR ROOSEVELT - WHO WROTE THE UN'S DECLARATION OF UNIVERSAL HUMAN RIGHTS - WOULD AGREE, BUT GREENWALD DISAGREES; GREENWALD IS IMPLICITLY IS ENDORSING THE TYRANNICAL RULE OF ISLAMO-FASCISTS LIKE HAMAS.


THAT'S BECAUSE HE IS A POSTMODERN LEFTIST.
  • POST MODERN LEFTISTS ARE MORAL RELATIVISTS WHO BLAME THE WEST FOR ALL OUR CONTEMPORARY PROBLEMS.
  • THE LEFT BELIEVES THAT THE JUDEO-CHRISTIAN WEST CAUSED THIRD WORLD POVERTY, AGW, AND MOST OF HISTORY'S GENOCIDE.
  • THEY ARE WRONG ON ALL THREE COUNTS:
  1. ISLAM HAS KILLED AT LEAST 270 MILLION
  2. CLIMATE CHANGE IS NATURAL
  3. THE WEST - THE FIRST WORLD - DID NOT CAUSE THIRD WORLD POVERTY
  • ACTUALLY, SOCIALISM KILLED PEOPLE IN THE 20TH CENTURY THAN JUDEO-CHRISTIANS DID IN THE PRECEDING 20 CENTURIES.
  • AND ISLAM HAS KILLED MORE PEOPLE THAN SOCIALISM.
  • BUT BECAUSE THEY BELIEVE THESE LEFTIST LIES, POSTMODERNISTS ARE PREDISPOSED TO TAKE OUR ENEMY'S SIDE; ANYONE SEEN AS OPPOSED TO THE WEST IS ALSO SEEN AS GOOD.
  • THAT'S BECAUSE ANYONE WHO OPPOSES THE JUDEO-CHRISTIAN WEST IS SEEN AS A VICTIM AND AN UNDERDOG, AND WITHIN THE POSTMODERN LEFT'S AMORAL/MORALLY RELATIVIST WORLDVIEW, UNDERDOGS AND VICTIMS HAVE ABSOLUTE MORAL AUTHORITY IN ANY CONTEST WITH THE WEST. (MORE ON ABSOLUTE MORAL AUTHORITY HERE.)
  • THIS IS WHY POSTMODERN LEFTISTS ADORE VICTIMHOOD AND THRIVE ON VICTIMIZATION.
  • THIS IS WHY GREENWALD ARGUES THAT GAZANS ARE THE BIGGER VICTIMS, AND THEREFORE "MORE RIGHT" THAN ISRAELIS.
  • THIS IS WHY THE FACT THAT GAZANS WERE VIOLATING INTERNATIONAL LAW AND THE CEASEFIRE - (A FACT ARGUED BY BOTH PRESIDENT ABBAS AND EGYPTIAN F.M. GHEIT) - IS OF NO CONCERN TO GREENWALD: INTERNATIONAL NORMS CAN ALWAYS BE TRUMPED BY VICTIMS OF "JUDEO-CHRISTIAN/WESTERN HEGEMONY" IN THE MINDS OF LEFTISTS.
  • THE POSTMODERNIST'S LOATHING OF THE JUDEO-CHRISTIAN WEST TRUMPS EVERYTHING ELSE!
  • IN ADDITION, POSTMODERN LEFTISTS - LIKE GREENWALD - INCORRECTLY SEE JEWS AND CHRISTIANS AS INVADERS IN THE HOLY LAND, AS WESTERN INTRUDERS!
THE FACT IS THAT ARABS AND MUSLIMS ARE THE REAL INVADERS, AND THAT THE CRUSADES WERE A COUNTER-OFFENSIVE,

JUST

LIKE

THE

CURRENT

GAZA WAR.

FUCK GREENWALD AND ALL THE OTHER POSTMODERN LEFTIST SCUMBUCKETS.

I WROTE ABOUT GRUBER IN 2009 - BEFORE OBAMACARE WAS PASSED!

GRUBER AND THE ENTIRE OBAMACARE PROJECT WAS CHIEFLY INFORMED BY AN ARROGANT ELITISM: THEY KNOW BETTER THAN YOU WHAT KIND OF HEALTHCARE INSURANCE YOU NEED.

I WROTE ABOUT THIS ARROGANCE IN 2009 - IN A CULTURAL WAY, AND AS IT RELATED TO OBAMACARE.

THE POST WAS TITLED: "OF ELITISTS, TOSCA, FREDERICK E. HART AND OBAMACARE".

THE POST COMPARED TRADITIONAL ART - CITING AS AN EXAMPLE SCULPTURE BY F.E. HART AS DESCRIBED BY TOM WOLFE, (ART WHICH THE CRITICS AND GATEKEEPERS OF THE CONTEMPORARY ART WORLD CONSIDER KITSCH, BUT WHICH THE PUBLIC LOVES) ...

... TO POSTMODERN ART - CITING AS AN EXAMPLE A RECENT CONTEMPORIZED AND DECADENT PRODUCTION OF TOSCA AT THE MET - (AN EXAMPLE OF DECADENT POSTMODERN ART WHICH THE CRITICS AND GATEKEEPERS OF THE CONTEMPORARY ART WORLD HAIL AS GENIUS, BUT WHICH THE PUBLIC DOESN'T REALLY LIKE) AND IT CONCLUDED:
THE PEOPLE KNOW GREAT ART WHEN THEY SEE IT - OR HEAR IT.
  • THE PEOPLE DON'T NEED ELITISTS TO TELL THEM WHAT MOVES THEM, WHAT AMAZES, THEM WHAT STIRS AWESOME FEELINGS AND AWAKENS GREAT HOPES IN THEM.
  • PEOPLE LIKE A TRADITIONALLY STAGED TOSCA AND SCULPTURE BY HART BECAUSE TOSCA AND HART SPEAK TO THEM ACROSS THE AGES.
  • FRAUDSTERS AND SHAMS - LIKE SERRA AND BONDY - NEED ELITISTS TO HELP THEM SELL THEIR POSTMODERN CRAP BECAUSE THE PEOPLE AREN'T MOVED BY THEIR ESOTERIC POSTURING.
  • THE GULLIBLE ONES ARE NOT THE PEOPLE WHO UNABASHEDLY LOVE THE TRADITIONAL ART FORMS AND FEEL NO SHAME AT BEING UNMOVED BY THE ESOTERIC CRAP; THE GULLIBLE ONES ARE THE WANNABES WHO BELIEVE THE CRAP THE POSTMODERN ELITISTS TELL THEM.
  • AND THERE'S NO DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE ELITIST ART CRITICS TELLING US THAT WE SHOULD LIKE SERRA, AND THE ELITIST HEALTHCARE EXPERTS TELLING US WE SHOULD SUPPORT OBAMACARE.
TRUST YOUR GUT. DON'T BUY WHAT THE ELITISTS ARE SELLING.
IT'S BS.
THE ELITIST DECADENCE OF THE POSTMODERN LEFT IS ONE OF ITS ESSENTIAL FEATURES.

IT IS WHY GRUBER SAID WHAT HE SAID AND SAID IT SO GLIBLY.

OBAMA AND AYERS AND THE REST OF THE POMO LEFT FEEL THE SAME WAY.

IT'S WHAT MAKES THEM  SO AWFUL AND DESTRUCTIVE AND DANGEROUS.

THEIR ARROGANCE.
THEIR HATRED OF THE TRADITIONAL.
THEIR ATTACHMENT TO THE ESOTERIC AND DECADENT.

WE REALLY NEED TO DO MORE THAN REPEAL OBAMACARE.

WE NEED TO REPEAL POSTMODERISM.

WHY HAS OBAMA CONSISTENTLY DISSED OUR ALLIES? BECAUSE HE'S A POSTMODERN LEFTIST

Obama has consistently dissed our allies (Britain, Israel, Honduras, Poland & eastern Europe and so on) because Obama is a postmodern leftist.

And postmodern leftists believe the KGB-Zinn BS: that the USA has been a force for evil capitalism in the world for a century.

(As if the Third Word was poor because of the rich nations; as if the rich nations became rich by stealing the wealth from the poor nations. As if the list of poor nations wasn't identical to the list of less free, less free market-oriented less-Western nations.)



SO - as a good little postmodern Leftist, Obama hates everything the USA has stood for pro-Obama and all the pre-Obama allies who were merely "co-criminals" the the postmodern leftists).

North Korea, Cuba, pre-Deng Xiao Ping China, the USSR, Zimbabwe, Venezuela, eastern Europe post-Thatcher Britain and post-Reagan America all expose the idiocy of this basic leftist line.

IF WE REALLY ANT TO MAKE POVERTY HISTORY THEN WE HAVE TO ERADICATE LEFTISM.

OBAMA, AN INEPT MODERATE/LIBERAL OR A FOCUSED POSTMODERN LEFTIST?

MOST CRITICS OF OBAMA ARGUE HE IS MERELY INEPT:

WR MEAD: 
President Vladimir Putin and Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei now believe they are dealing with a dithering and indecisive American leader, and are calibrating their policies accordingly.
DANIEL PIPES:
... with Barack Obama, the United States has slid into shocking irrelevance in the Middle East, the world's most turbulent region. Inconstancy, incompetence, and inaction have rendered the Obama administration impotent. In the foreign policy arena, Obama acts as though he would rather be the prime minister of Belgium, a small country that usually copies the decisions of its larger neighbors when casting votes at the United Nations or preening morally about distant troubles. Belgians naturally "lead from behind," to use the famed phrase emanating from Obama's White House.
I DISAGREE.

The foreign policy of the last 5 years has been a fiasco, but this fiasco is NOT a result of "Obama's ineptitude".

The consistency of the results proves that they are not caused by ineptness; ineptness alone would have had varying results - some good and some bad.

Obama's results have all been bad for the USA and our allies and they have all been good for Putin, China and especially the Muslim Brotherhood and similar islamist political parties.


Obama has consistently punished our traditional allies - and islamo-terrorists who don't follow the political TACTICS of the Muslim Brotherhood, Erdogan's AKP, Nasrallah's HIZB'ALLAH and Abbas's FATAH. Obama and Biden and Kerry - since the time they were Senators - have also aided the political islamists in Pakistan specifically the PML(N) of Nawaz Sharif - the Morsi-like PM of Pakistan.

None of these leaders and none of their parties act in the interest of the USA or our allies.

Aiding them is against our interest and the interests of the Free World - yet this is precisely what Obama has done.

Patriotic Americans agree that for the Free World to expand and prosper and be safe and secure that we need an America that leads and has a military that's second to none.

Obama aids them because at his deepest level Obama is a postmodern leftist who believes very deeply that America specifically and the West in general have been negative forces in human history.

It is this viscerally held belief that fuels and directs  Obama's foreign policy - and explains why the result have been consistent and not the result of ineptness.

All postmodern leftists like Obama blame the West for: 
(a) Third World poverty,
(b) the impending "Global Climate Catastrophe",
(c) sexual repression of LGBT's and sex workers,
(d) implanting phony nations within authentic nations at the expense of indigenous peoples - as in the cases of Israel and South Africa,
(e) all racism, and
(f) most of history's genocide.
ALL OF THE NOTIONS ARE DEMONSTRABLY FALSE: 
(a) Without free-market capitalism and industrialization the Third World won't ever become prosperous - (even Bono agrees with this now);
(b) the Earth has not gotten warmer for 16 years despite a doubling of man-made CO2 - and sea level has actually declined the last 3 years;
(c) the Gramscian desire to obliterate the family has led postmodernists to argue that there is no such thing as normative sexual roles and mores, but all species which sexually reproduce value the individuals who can reproduce over the ones who cannot or do not; the future of the species demands this; sexual norms are part of our nature - and typical of ALL human cultures for all time. In other words: "sexually normative" is not a culturally relative term; it is a value inextricably entwined with sexual reproduction and the nature of species which reproduce sexually. Destroying the normative is a political act.
(d) Almost all peoples on Earth are immigrants - Hungarians didn't arrive in Hungary until 895AD; Burgundians and Finns are also immigrants around that era. So-called "native Americans" came here about 40,000 years or so years ago FROM SOMEWHERE ELSE.
As for Israel: Jews have lived there in great numbers continuously, more so than Greeks or Romans or or Turks (who also immigrated into Turkey!) or Arabs. And the Dutch and the British were in South Africa for centuries. Longer than most people today who call themselves Americans - (and had no connection whatsoever to slavery, or the Indian Wars).
(e) There is plenty of racism all over the world between and within many ethnic and racial groups: light-skinned blacks versus dark-skinned blacks; Koreans versus Japanese; and there has always been plenty of tribalism everywhere and for all time.
(f) Most of the genocide in human history was committed by islam; and socialists killed more people in the 20th C than Europeans did in the preceding 20 centuries. (A fact that leftists like Obama conveniently overlook.)
Despite the facts, despite their demonstrable truth, postmodern leftists persist in their negative feelings about the West in general and the USA in particular as the leader of the West/the Free World.

And when you deeply believe that the West and the USA are to blame for all our current problems and maybe a "global climate catastrophe" then of course you are willing to do just about anything to punish the West and the USA and make sure they can never ever ruin things again.

As a postmodern leftist who POTUS and therefore the putative leader of the Free World, Obama is in a difficult position:

Obama must appear to be patriotic without actually being patriotic.

The most obvious illustration of this conundrum Obama must continuously face was when - while campaigning in 2007, he said he wouldn't wear a flag-pin on his lapel - and this greatly pleased his leftist base. Later - needing to appeal to a bigger part of the electorate, he realized it was a good thing to wear the flag-pin: wearing deflected a lot of criticism and helped make him appear to be something he was not: A PATRIOT.

Since then, Obama has repeated this trope in many ways: appearing to be patriotic when he is not.

The results speak more loudly than anything else. The consistency of the results proves this.

And the consistency of his appointments and attempted appointments - as do the characters of the people with whom he has been close for the decades before he ran for federal office:

  • Charles Freeman, 
  • the al Ahzar educated John Brennan
  • Samantha Power, 
  • Rashid Khalidi, 
  • Edward Said, 
  • Bill Ayers, 
  • Rev. Wright, 
  • Jodie Evans, 
  • Louis Farrakhan - to name just a few.
  • And then there's the fact that Erdogan is his closest personal foreign ally.
SO... I must respectfully disagree with distinguidhed critics of Obama like WR Mead and Daniel Pipes:

what they call a "foreign policy fiasco" is "Mission in the Process of Being Accomplished" for Obama and the postmodern left; though Obama can never admit it.

POSTMODERN CULTURAL RELATIVISTS WRONG AGAIN: THE INQUISITION WAS NOWHERE NEAR AS BAD AS REGULAR AZTEC RELIGIOUS PRACTICE

A postmodern cultural/historical/cultural relativististic leftist this comment at a thread on my post STEPHEN HAWKING: IDIOT.

HERE:
Europe at that time was no more or less savage than the savages they encountered they just wore knee britches & silks rather than feathers & animal skins.

Yes the Aztecs practiced human sacrifice, as opposed to the various European empires that just warred on endlessly over land over succession over religion, burning heretics and witches.

Remember later Isabel & Ferdinand would force the Jews and Moors of Spain to convert, leave or die.

This is not propaganda this is history.
This is pure postmodern rubbish.

Here are the facts:

INQUISITION:

Henningsen-Contreras statistics for the period 1540-1700

Tribunal

Number of preserved relaciones de causas from the period 1540-1700[79]

Number of trials in causa fidei reported in the preserved relaciones de causas[80]

Estimated number of all cases in the period 1540-1700[81]

Executions in persona reported in the preserved relaciones de causas[82]

The actual number of executions in persona in the period 1540-1700[83]



Total

1531

44674

~87000

826

At least 1080


IN SUMMARY: OVER 160 YEARS, THE AWFUL HORRIBLE HORRIFYING SPANISH INQUISITION KILLED... ABOUT 1110 PEOPLE.

THAT'S ABOUT... HMMMM 7/YEAR.

THE AZTECS WOULD RIP THE HEARTS OUT OF 50,000 PEOPLE IN ONE DAY. ON AVERAGE, MAYBE 250,000 A YEAR.

Estimates of the scope of the sacrifices

For the re-consecration of Great Pyramid of Tenochtitlan in 1487, the Aztecs reported that they sacrificed about 80,400 prisoners over the course of four days, though there were probably far fewer sacrifices. According to Ross Hassig, author of Aztec Warfare, "between 10,000 and 80,400 persons" were sacrificed in the ceremony.[32] The higher estimate would average 14 sacrifices per minute during the four-day consecration. As a comparison, the Auschwitz concentration camp, working 24 hours a day with modern technology, approached but did not equal this pace: it executed about 19,200 a day at its peak. (Note: the limiting factor for the Nazis was not killing people, but efficient disposal (cremation) of the bodies.[33] Four tables were arranged at the top so that the victims could be jettisoned down the sides of the temple.[34] Nonetheless, according to Codex Telleriano-Remensis, old Aztecs who talked with the missionaries told about a much lower figure for the reconsecration of the temple, approximately 4,000 victims in total.

Michael Harner, in his 1977 article The Enigma of Aztec Sacrifice, estimates the number of persons sacrificed in central Mexico in the 15th century as high as 250,000 per year. Fernando de Alva Cortés Ixtlilxochitl, a Mexica descendant and the author of Codex Ixtlilxochitl, estimated that one in five children of the Mexica subjects was killed annually. Victor Davis Hanson argues that a claim by Don Carlos Zumárraga of 20,000 per annum is "more plausible."[35]
SO DON'T TELL ME THAT WESTERN CIVILIZATION OR EUROPEAN COLONIAL POWERS WERE JUST AS BAD AS THE AZTECS.

THAT'S POMO RUBBISH.

IT'S PROPAGANDA, NOT HISTORY. HEH.

AND ANOTHER THING:

  • THE FOLKS WHO MAKE THIS ANTI-WEST/CULTURAL RELATIVIST ARGUMENT ALWAYS BLAME US, THE WEST, AMERICA, ANDJUDEO-CHRISTIAN CIVILIZATION.
  • IT THE BLAME AMERICA FIRST CROWD. THE POSTMODERN LEFT.
  • THIS IS THE SAME CROWD WHO STATES THAT IRAQIS WERE BETTER OFF UNDER SADDAM.
WELL, SADDAM WAS WORSE FOR IRAQIS THAN THE KKK WAS FOR BLACKS.

SADDAM KILLED ON AVERAGE 80,000 IRAQIS A YEAR. FOR A FEW DECADES.

(LINKS HERE AND HERE.)
According to The New York Times, "he [Saddam] murdered as many as a million of his people, many with poison gas. He tortured, maimed and imprisoned countless more. His unprovoked invasion of Iran is estimated to have left another million people dead. His seizure of Kuwait threw the Middle East into crisis. More insidious, arguably, was the psychological damage he inflicted on his own land. Hussein created a nation of informants — friends on friends, circles within circles — making an entire population complicit in his rule".[7] Estimates for the number of dead in the Iran-Iraq war vary from 500,000[8] to 1.5 million.[9] Others have estimated 800,000 deaths caused by Saddam not counting the Iran-Iraq war.[10]
WELL, ER UM... FROM 1865 TO 1965, THE KKK LYNCHED AND MURDERED 7900 BLACKS - A HORRIBLE AMOUNT, BUT NOT 1% OF WHAT SADDAM DID IN ONE TENTH THE TIME.

I AM NOT DEFENDING EITHER THE HORRIBLE INQUISITION OR THE EVIL KKK.

I AM ATTACKING THOSE WHO WOULD DEFEND AZTECS BY EQUATING THEM WITH THE INQUISITION, WHO ATTACK THE EUROPEAN COLONIAL POWERS AS BEING WORSE THAN THE INDIGENOUS EMPIRES, AND THOSE WHO WOULD RIGHTFULLY ATTACK THE KKK, BUT THEN EXCUSE SADDAM.

WHO DOES THIS ALL THE TIME?

THE POSTMODERN LEFT.

THEY ARE UNPRINCIPLED AND/OR MISINFORMED.

Or as Reagan said; it's not that they don't know anything; it's that everything they know is wrong.
