Mar 16, 2024 ~ "Why Conservatives Need to Stop Saying ‘My Country’s Not Perfect’" Insightful article. No country is perfect. We don't introduce our mother saying "We know she's not perfect" "Our country’s successes doesn’t necessitate disclaimers about her sins." [Politics, Western Civilization]
Mar 16, 2024 ~ "Maryland city equity official says she wants US to burn to the ground: 'MY ideology can rise from the ashes'" DIE ideology, poison from the start, is getting even more toxic. Kayla Aliese Carter supports 'Black liberation' through revolutionary means and said she is working with some activists to plan 'how we will eat and live and grow after we burn it all down.'" [CRT DIE Wokeness, Loathsome Left, Western Civilization]
Feb 20, 2024 ~ Vince Coyner, 'Leftists Disconnected From How Things Work Are Destroying Everything' Very insightful article demonstrating how liberals take for granted our entire prosperous modern civilization and how it came about. "The average Westerner’s life is far superior to any experienced by 99.999% of the people who ever lived, but, somehow, everyone today is a victim." "Virtually the entire left in this country has zero connection with anything having to do with creating anything, growing anything, building anything, or risking anything. They spend their days pushing paper in offices or selling cappuccinos, if they work at all. Not only are few of them farmers, but few are truckers, lumberjacks, steel workers, plumbers, electricians, or entrepreneurs. Few have ever had to balance paying a credit card bill versus making payroll. Few ever risked their money and invested sweat equity to start a business.   The left today is largely government employees, students, college-educated white women working inside large corporations, Wall Street, academia, the cabal of NGOs, the media, the 40 million who suckle on the government teat through programs like SNAP, and the 47% of the country who either pay no tax or get “refundable tax credits”.   Few of those people do anything remotely productive for the economy. Few understand that the government doesn’t have money beyond what it takes from taxpayers or prints via taxpayer IOUs. They have no appreciation for Capitalism, the thing that gave us our prosperity. They flush the toilets and expect them to work, flip the light switch and expect the room to illuminate, and go to the store to pick up a pound of beef without knowing how it gets there. Few of them have any real connection to the basic functionality of life." [Loathsome Left, Western Civilization]
Nov 5, 2023 ~ Bill Maher goes on an epic rant against modern liberals and democrats who are not only anti-semitic but anti Western Civilization. "For all the progressives and academics who refer to Israel as 'an outpost of Western Civilization' like its a bad thing, please note: Western Civilization is what gave the world pretty much every god damned liberal precept that liberals are supposed to adore. Individual liberty, scientific inquiry, rule of law, religious freedom, women's rights, human rights, democracy, trial by jury, freedom of speech... And since one can find all of these concepts in today's Israel and virtually no where else in the middle east, if anything the world would be a better place if it had more Israels... The irony being that ALL marginalized people live better today BECAUSE of western ideals, not in spite of them... That's how simple the woke are. Its never about ideas. If it was would they be cheering on Hamas for their 'liberation?' Liberation? To do what? More freely preside over a country where there are no laws against sexual harassment, spousal rape, domestic violence, homophobia, honor killings, or child marriage. This is who liberals think you should stand with? Women there should be so lucky as to get colonized by anybody else. And for the record, the Jews didn't colonize Israel or anywhere ever except maybe Boca Raton... The ideas that came through Athens, Rome, London, Paris and yes Philadelphia are what make life good for most people in free societies today. That the individuals have value. And even the powers that be must submit to the rule of law. That punishment should not be cruel and unusual. That accused people get a trial. That there is such a thing as a war crime. Why is that every other culture gets a pass but the West is exclusively the sum of the worst things its ever done?... People back then were all atrocious. Not just the white ones. But it was the Western enlightenment that gave rise to the notion that the law of the jungle should be curbed... You think only white people colonized? Historians estimate the the very non Western Mr. Genghis Khan killed 40 million people - and that was in the 13th century. [CRT DIE Wokeness, Israel, Loathsome Left, Western Civilization]
Oct 29, 2023 ~ Rich Lowry, "Why Aren’t the Arabs the ‘Colonizers’" Why is the Al-Aqsa Mosque in Israel. Islamists conquered massive territory over the centuries. "All of human history is a story of never-ending layers of conquest and defeat and of migration and exile. If it were to be undone, we’d need to extirpate almost all peoples everywhere, including those who are currently portrayed as the hopelessly oppressed."   The Arab/Muslim expansion "is one of the most sweeping acts of conquest and successful exercises in colonialism in world history... The Arabs followed up their military conquest with a cultural imperialism still felt today. The Arabs would gobble up Syria, Palestine, Egypt, and Mesopotamia. They chipped away at the Byzantine Empire and launched a no-kidding effort to conquer it wholesale that fell short after two epic sieges of Constantinople. They basically took all of the Persian empire. Eventually, they assembled an empire with the greatest territorial extent since the Romans, encompassing 80% of the population of the Middle East and North Africa and reaching to the south of France." "Everywhere they conquered, they put in place 'Islamic governments and introduced new ways of living, trading, learning, thinking, building, and praying.' And of speaking and writing. The caliph Abd al-Malik imposed Arabic as the official language of the empire, an act of the highest cultural significance, since Arabic and Islam were so intertwined. 'Arabization,' was gradually followed by conversion across the Muslim-held territories—a shift that can still be seen, felt, and heard in almost every part of the old caliphate in the twenty-first century. Once they had Islam foisted on them, these territories, by and large, never went back, except in the cases of Spain, Portugal, and Sicily." [CRT DIE Wokeness, Islam, Rich Lowry, Western Civilization]
Oct 22, 2023 ~ Germany and other European countries are learning the hard way what the consequences are for importing large numbers of Muslim immigrants who do not share western values, would rather make Europe submit to Islam than assimilate and who hate the Jews. @RadioGenoa reports: "Chaos in Germany. Pro-Hamas immigrants in Berlin shout intifada. They don't want peace, they want war. They call for Islamic Jihad and do so in the heart of Europe with attacks on the police, throwing of Molotov cocktails and various destructions." [Anti-Semitism, Immigration, Islam, Israel, Terrorism, Western Civilization]
Oct 2, 2022 ~ Victor Davis Hanson, "We blindly accept the faddish New Green Deal. We virtue signal about defunding the police. We merely shrug at open borders. And we brag about banning fertilizers and pesticides, outlawing the internal combustion engine, and discounting Armageddon in the nuclear age - as if on autopilot we have already reached utopia. But meanwhile Westerners are systematically destroying the very elements of our civilization that permitted such fantasies in the first place." [Climate Change, Green New Deal, Illegal Immigration, Police, Victor Davis Hanson, Western Civilization]
Jan 2, 2022 ~ Deirdre Nansen McCloskey, 'The West Didn’t Steal Its Way to Wealth' Debunks the myth that Western wealth comes from stealing from the poor of other nations and slavery.

Dec 3, 2021 ~ Rick Moran, 'Whose Land Did Native Americans Steal Before Europeans Stole It From Them?'

[Western Civilization]

Jul 4, 2021 ~ Derek Hunter, 'Liberals Try To Ruin The Declaration Of Independence' The National Archives declared its Rotunda as an example of “structural racism.” It "lauds wealthy White men in the nation's founding while marginalizing BIPOC."

Not at all true. [Cancel Culture, Fake Racism, Slavery, Western Civilization]
Mar 13, 2021 ~ Jeremy Egerer, 'Thank God for Columbus' People romanticize what the Americas were like before Columbus.

Jun 16, 2020 ~ Since no one stopped the left wing mob when they were tearing down Confederate statues, they have moved on to statues of Jefferson, Washington, Lincoln, Columbus, Churchill and even Gandhi.
