The Most Annoying Male! By the Annoying Uncle Len

     Here is a story about a fifth grade US student who was awarded a trophy for being the most annoying male. Yes, the whole thing just drips with feminist oppression. Still, the same sort of thing happened to me at school in the 1960s, when I bothered to attend. I could not keep still and would often get up from my seat, and go over to warm my hands by the log fire, sometimes engaging in endless flatulence, which has been a lifetime problem, let alone fire hazard. My teacher, Miss … I can’t say her name because it had a perfect sexual send up in it, poor thing, she never married … would take her frustrations out on me. In those days caning was in, and each day I would get a few thumps. One teacher used a snooker clue, another a beach bat, a flat thick bat, and prided himself in lifting young lads off the ground. He was an old monster, when I was young, and probably now at 100 + years of age teaches in some university (in hell).

     I must have sympathy for all those who hate school. The end result of heir abuse is people like me, and I blame everything on my environment, like the Leftists have told me, lacking all agency, as they say too. I am truly a pathetic creation of the system, and people must learn from my bad example and exercise free will before it is taken from you and you too live in a shed or worse.

Even Images Condemning Terrorism, Are Hate, but Only if You are White! By Richard Miller

     What further proof is really needed?
  https://www.thelocal.fr/20190612/marine-le-pen-to-stand-trial-over-shameful-tweets-of-isis-killings

“The president of France's far right Rassemblement National party Marine is set to stand trial over her tweeting of gruesome images of Isis atrocities in the Middle East, which included a photo of the decapitated body of US reporter James Foley. A judge in Nanterre, just west of Paris, issued the ruling after Le Pen was charged back in February 2018 for circulating "violent messages that incite terrorism or pornography or seriously harm human dignity" and that can be viewed by a minor. The crime is punishable by up to three years in prison and a fine of 75,000 euros ($91,000).  French prosecutors opened an investigation in December 2015 into the graphic series of tweets by National Front leader Le Pen, which included a photo of the decapitated body of US reporter James Foley. They were posted just a few weeks after the Paris terror attacks. The move by a judge in Nanterre, just outside Paris, came after the National Assembly voted in November to strip the National Front president of her parliamentary immunity over the three photos of Isis violence. In March 2017 year MPs in the European parliament voted to strip Le Pen of her immunity around the case in order to allow the prosecution to proceed.

Bow to the Chinese Please! Manners! By James Reed

     Well, one of the good things is that the Chinese New World Disorder will end all of the liberal multicult pc bs, forever. That has got to be a positive, a big plus indeed.  Learning Mandarin will be hard for us older folk, who no doubt would much prefer to eat mandarins with our dentures out, but such is life.
  https://www.theage.com.au/national/victoria/melbourne-councillor-regrets-bowing-to-chinese-political-influence-20190613-p51xf4.html

“A Melbourne City councillor has said she regrets bowing to “political influence” and not proceeding with a motion commemorating the 30th anniversary of Beijing’s crackdown on Tiananmen Square in which thousands of students were killed. Cr Jackie Watts said she was dissuaded from proceeding with a motion on June 4 after what she believed was “political influence” from the Chinese Consulate, which triggered “acute distress” in some of her colleagues. When confronted with this distress, she said she was dissuaded from proceeding with the motion just minutes before the meeting started. “On reflection, I know that this timid acquiescence in the face of pressure was an error on my part. I regret this on a number of levels,” Cr Watts told a meeting on Thursday night. “Choosing to stay silent, to in effect bow to political influence right here in our city may have been a humane or collegiate response, but it was contrary to the very democracy that we hold dear.” Cr Watts said she had been planning to move a “simple and respectful motion” that acknowledged the 30th anniversary of the event, which disrupted the lives of so many students studying in Australia at the time. She said it went on to acknowledge that “we in Australia, and now they, have the privilege of living in a democracy where human rights are upheld”.

John Cleese on the Joke that is London By James Reed

     There we go, the great English comic John Cleese saying that London is not English enough! John, you have been too busy making people laugh to pay attention to what has been happening, as London is now majority non-white, so your England is gone, gone, gone. Why Somali parents are sending their kiddies home because of the knife violence, so England as you knew it is at the zombie apocalypse level:
  https://news.yahoo.com/john-cleese-slams-london-for-not-being-english-enough-092406316.html
  https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-7077579/Somali-parents-London-send-children-Africa-knife-crime-epidemic.html

“Hundreds of British parents are sending their teenage children back to East Africa to avoid the knife crime epidemic that has struck London and seen 51 murders this year. And the teenagers say they feel safer there, despite the Foreign and Commonwealth office advising against all travel to Somalia and warning against the threat of terrorism across Kenya. One Somali mother, Amina, was interviewed on the BBC's Victoria Derbyshire programme and told the harrowing story of how her 15-year-old son was stabbed four times, just 17 days after he returned from a year-long stay in their homeland. She said: 'They damaged his bladder, his kidneys, his liver. He's got permanent damage. 'He was safer there [in Somaliland] than he was here, 100 per cent more safe than in London.' Last year the Foreign Office named Somalia the 13th most dangerous country in the world due to its constant threat of terrorism. And yet two in five Somalian families in London are sending their children home to avoid the knife crime epidemic hitting the capital, according to the mayor of Islington."

Shocking Racism About an American Icon By Charles Taylor

     I just do not believe it … could it really be true? Will the metaphorical Statue of Liberty come tumbling down?
  https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-7071713/FBI-tapes-Martin-Luther-King-Jr-40-affairs-laughed-friend-raped-parishioner.html

“Secret FBI tapes that accuse Martin Luther King Jr of having extramarital affairs with '40 to 45 women' and even claim he 'looked on and laughed' as a pastor friend raped a parishioner exist, an author has claimed. The civil rights hero was also heard allegedly joking he was the founder of the 'International Association for the Advancement of P***y-Eaters' on an agency recording that was obtained by bugging his room, according to the sensational claims made by biographer David Garrow - a Pulitzer prize-winning author and biographer of MLK. Writing in British magazine Standpoint, Garrow says that the shocking files could lead to a 'painful historical reckoning' for the man who is celebrated across the world for his campaign against racial injustice. Along with many US civil rights figures, King was subject to an FBI campaign of surveillance ordered by Director J Edgar Hoover in an effort to undermine his power amid fears he could have links to the Communist Party.”

Annihilating the Christian Legacy By Peter West

     It happened slowly at first, but day by day, the elites have worked away to destroy the traditional Christian legacy of the West. While it happened the Christians, who may have been vaguely aware that something bad was going on, were on average, inert, like an inert gas.
  https://www.zerohedge.com/news/2019-04-29/annihilation-christian-life-and-people-where-outrage-west

“It is with indifference that we witness a catastrophe of civilization with no precedent", wrote the French scholar historian Jean-François Colosimo, commenting on the destruction of Eastern Christianity. No religion, no community, is today more persecuted than Christians. Why, then, this silence by the West? Have we become so foreign to ourselves, to our roots and to our history, that we can contemplate this outbreak of jihadi violence without blinking an eye? Or are we so short-sighted that we hoped to buy "peace" with the Muslim extremists at the cost of abandoning those Christians? The same jihadi ideology that murdered Christian children in Sri Lanka, targeted European children in Nice, Manchester and Barcelona.”

Impeach Grump? But He Has Really Done Nothing! By Chris knight

     The move to impeach Trump grows, just as  Frump’s waistline  grows. I would support this cage-putting if it came from the Right since Blump has done the opposite of what he promised, with record illegals invading the country and 1984 style denials of free speech while he does nothing, and in fact by his inaction encourages it. But the impeachment comes from the Left, who have simply been stirred up by the illusion pushed by the media that Trump is some sort of American nationalist, instead of being just a globsalist goose:
  https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2019/06/15/nationwide-roundup-impeachtrump-rallies-pop-up-across-the-country/

“Roughly 130 anti-Trump rallies are taking place for Saturday’s nationwide #ImpeachTrump: Act to Defend Democracy event. “Donald Trump’s abuses of our communities and country demand action from Congress, which has the responsibility and authority to hold Trump accountable,” the event description reads. “The next crucial step is an inquiry into whether to draft articles of impeachment.” The rallies, promoted by far-left Hollywood figures like Chelsea Handler, were advertised as “visible, family-friendly, public gatherings” designed to “demonstrate to our representatives that impeachment is the will of the people.” “Together, we will inform our communities about Trump’s abuses and the process of impeachment, then make plans to convey our support for impeachment to our elected officials,” the event description adds. MoveOn has been tweeting and retweeting updates from rallies all over the country, which show protesting “dogs,” games, and appearances from political figures like former Rep. Elizabeth Holtzman (D-NY), Rep. Al Green (D-TX), and Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-MI ). “I sincerely hope that after this Saturday, my colleagues on Capitol Hill will answer the call of the likely millions of Americans that will rally across the country and finally open an impeachment inquiry into the actions of President Trump,” Tlaib told Newsweek ahead of her appearance. “It is our duty as members of Congress to pursue the last option we have in this pursuit of justice on behalf of the American people,” she added.”

When America Goes Down By Chris Knight

     This is what it is all about, what everything done by the elites comes to in the endgame. America is just slightly ahead of the wave, but it is the trend of demographic replacement right across the West:
  https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/nation/2019/03/21/pew-survey-whites-fearful-minority-country-will-weaken-american-culture/3217218002/

“Almost half of white Americans say the USA becoming a majority nonwhite nation would "weaken American customs and values," a new Pew Research Center survey says. The U.S. Census Bureau predicts that before 2050, the majority of the USA will be made up of minority populations. According to Pew's research, 46 percent of white people fear that would weaken U.S. culture. A quarter of Hispanics and 18 percent of black people have similar fears. Forty percent of blacks and 46 percent of Hispanics say the shift would strengthen those customs and values. "The finding speaks for itself. It suggests concern broadly held by whites about a majority-minority country," says Rich Morin, a senior editor at Pew Research Center. The survey of 2,524 U.S. adults conducted in December focused on Americans' view of the future of the country and asked about political, economic and societal changes that could come by 2050. Pew did not define "American customs and values" or "American culture" for the survey.

China Loves Iran So There! By James Reed

     China does not care what the US thinks about Iran, but is pressing ahead with normal relations with them, and to hell with America, because capitalism is not going to be put aside for any conspiratorial war:
  https://www.foxnews.com/world/china-reaffirms-vow-to-develop-ties-with-iran-after-attack-on-tankers

     The narrative that the Japanese tanker was hit by a mine, and then Iran went back to the scene of the crime like serial killers often do, is just plain stupid, and is at the Trump level of stupid. The video is so low quality that it looks like something someone cooked up in their backyard, compared to the high-quality kill videos from drones that Obama used to show at White House dinner parties. Why didn’t the drone blow up the small boat? If the drone was unarmed, then the boat could have been attacked by missiles. Or, navy SEALS or some other form of combat fish, could have apprehended the boat instead of letting them get away. Why is there no video of the bombs being placed, if the US has a video of the bomb that did not go off getting collected? The bomb was recovered because it was a trace to the US of course.

The Fun Trains of Europe By Richard Miller

     One of the joys of Europe is train travel, and today, train travel is diverse, exciting, full of energy, like being on one of those horror trains at the fair, or not so fair:
  https://europe.infowars.com/syrian-teens-terrorize-german-train-riders-for-entire-weekend/

“A gang of Syrian teens tormented train passengers in Germany over the course of a holiday weekend, sexually harassing girls, threatening families, and even pulling a knife in one incident, according to local media. The suspects were reportedly arrested multiple times, but continued their reign of terror upon release, and are currently at large after wreaking havoc on Deutsche Bahn trains in the state of Saarland. "As Karsten Eberhardt of the Federal Police Office in Bexbach reported on Tuesday, his colleagues were alerted for the first time on Friday (7 June)," Saarbrücker Zeitungreports. "In the regional train between Neunkirchen and Homburg, at 4:40 pm, one of the youth gang pulled out a knife and threatened to use it." "Only a day later, the trio turned their attention to a family and their children, as well as girls who they harassed. At 7:30 pm the investigators had to move in to stop the gang on the train from Saarbrücken to Homburg." A train conductor called police again on Sunday to alert them about the gang, who were arrested and later released, despite reportedly confessing to some of their misdeeds. Police say they range in age from 14 to 16 and come from Syria, but hold permanent residence permits in Germany. As Infowars Europe has often reported, trains and transit stations in Europe have become hotspots for migrant criminality and violence. A group of migrants from Eritrea recently attacked a rail attendant in Germany, spitting on him and calling him a 'Nazi pig' after he refused to let them board a train with lit cigarettes.”

Trump Has Already Lost the 2020 Election By Chris Knight

     Trump has no hope of winning the 2020 election, due to the surge in illegals and fall-off of his supporters, but I doubt whether he will care:

  https://thinkprogress.org/the-internal-poll-that-donald-trump-said-didnt-exist-was-just-leaked-1bedd00413f1/

     Trump was clearly a conspiracy, succeeding in bringing in record numbers of illegals while promising in blood during the election to build the wall and stop illegal immigration. Instead he covertly aided the elites and Deep Staters in stimulating a vast invasion of America, as documented here if the reader needs the statistics:

Born Alive Abortion Survivors By Mrs Vera West

     What if aborted foetuses could talk? Well, some have; the born alive abortion survivors.
  https://humandefense.com/meet-born-alive-abortion-survivors/

“On Monday, February 25, 2019, the Senate failed to pass the Born-Alive Abortion Survivors Protection Act in a 53-44 vote. The bill would have provided protection for babies born alive after abortions, and every single Democratic candidate for 2020 voted against it. Thor Benson even went on to tweet that there is no such thing as an abortion survivor. This is void of anything truthful, and the testimonies of abortion survivors below prove it to be so. Gianna Jessen had been in her mother’s womb for 7 months when her mother went to a Planned Parenthood, where she was told to have a late-term saline abortion. A saline abortion, also known as an instillation abortion, takes place as follows:

Now Even Falser Books! By Peter West

     This is an interesting one, since it shows what goes on in book publishing, especially politically correct masterpieces, where an inconvenient fact can still lead to things coming unstuck:
  https://www.zerohedge.com/news/2019-06-16/publisher-delays-book-after-uk-radio-host-destroys-authors-entire-premise-live-air

“Progressive feminist author Naomi Wolf's new book has been delayed by the publisher after a BBC radio host destroyed a major part of the book's premise during a live interview in May. In the course of her research for the book Outrages: Sex, Censorship, and the Criminalization of Love - which deals with the British government's criminalization of same-sex relationships in the 19th century - Wolf misinterpreted the ancient UK legal term "death recorded" to mean that homosexuals were executed. "I found, like, several dozen executions, uh, but that was again only looking at the old daily records in the crime tables," Wolf told host Matthew Sweet. Sweet jumped on it, saying "I don't think you're right about this," pointing out that one of the young men Wolf claims was executed was not. "I was really surprised by this," says Sweet, adding "death recorded is what's in most of these cases that you've identified as executions. It doesn't mean that he was executed. It was a category that was created in 1823 that allowed judges to abstain from pronouncing a sentence of death on any capital convict." "I don't think any of the executions you've identified there actually happened." While Wolf's book has already been released in the UK, publisher Houghton Mifflin Harcourt announced that it would not move forward with a June 18 date. On Thursday, the publisher told the New York Times:

Now They Take Down Ricardo Duchesne: The Toxic Empire Strikes Back! By Chris Knight

     First, there was the attack upon Canadian academic Ricardo Duchesne, a far more important thinker and defender of the West and whites than the ever meat-eating Jordan Peterson, and then the announcements of his “retirement.” Well, a better turn of phrase is that he was forced out:

Mirror, Mirror on the Wall Who are the Dumbest of All? By Peter West

     Conservatives typically ignore issues of genetic quality when rattling on about “we the people,” those who will arise and defeat the Dark Lords of Mordor, because the good guys always win, don’t they? But, an intriguing article at the ever heretical The Burning Platform.com by Donald Jeffries, hoses this idea down with the cold waters of reason. But before outlining this, I found the concept of “the burning platform” equally as insightful, pregnant with meaning:
  https://www.managementcentre.co.uk/create-a-burning-platform/

“Burning platforms are very powerful drivers of strategic change. They are what happens when:
•    There is a real and immediate crisis
•    There is a limited number of difficult and challenging choices
•    Each of the choices is irreversible
•    Each choice has a high risk of failure

US Preparing for China War By James Reed

     Michael Klare has published a number of books dealing with the issue of resource depletion, and how this pushes the powers in a scramble for what is left, inevitably leading to war. Now I know many believe that there is no shortage of anything (especially bs), but just humour us here. In the end we will know, if anything remains after the next great conflict, which we all know will happen. The quote is long, but good, so pour yourself a nice refreshing  cuppa, butter up a hot scone and enjoy:
  https://www.zerohedge.com/news/2019-06-08/pentagons-spoiling-fight-china-not-iran
  http://www.tomdispatch.com/post/176570/tomgram%3A_michael_klare%2C_fighting_the_next_war%2C_not_the_last/

“Hawks in the White House, led by National Security Advisor John Bolton, see a war aimed at eliminating Iran’s clerical leadership as a potentially big win for Washington. Many top officials in the U.S. military, however, see the matter quite differently -- as potentially a giant step backward into exactly the kind of low-tech ground war they’ve been unsuccessfully enmeshed in across the Greater Middle East and northern Africa for years and would prefer to leave behind. Make no mistake: if President Trump ordered the U.S. military to attack Iran, it would do so and, were that to happen, there can be little doubt about the ultimate negative outcome for Iran. Its moth-eaten military machine is simply no match for the American one. Almost 18 years after Washington’s war on terror was launched, however, there can be little doubt that any U.S. assault on Iran would also stir up yet more chaos across the region, displace more people, create more refugees, and leave behind more dead civilians, more ruined cities and infrastructure, and more angry souls ready to join the next terror group to pop up. It would surely lead to another quagmire set of ongoing conflicts for American soldiers. Think: Iraq and Afghanistan, exactly the type of no-win scenarios that many top Pentagon officials now seek to flee. But don’t chalk such feelings up only to a reluctance to get bogged down in yet one more war-on-terror quagmire. These days, the Pentagon is also increasingly obsessed with preparations for another type of war in another locale entirely: a high-intensity conflict with China, possibly in the South China Sea.

A Trans, Trans, Trans World By Mrs Vera West

     Transgender identity is on the rise with teens. After all, for all of us old folks out there, who heard much about this sort of stuff when we were going out to the creek getting tadpoles? Or fishing down at some local stream, that is now too polluted to even fall into anymore? Anyway, let’s see what a fairly politically correct article has to say about this:
  https://www.psychologytoday.com/ca/blog/culture-mind-and-brain/201811/why-is-transgender-identity-the-rise-among-teens

“As attested by current controversies, rates of transgender identity appear to be on the rise, particularly among young people. Increased social acceptance of a previously stigmatized condition likely plays a role in this process, but other findings are clearly puzzling: Transgender identity is now reported among young natal females at rates that clearly exceed all known statistics to date. In a recent survey of 250 families whose children developed symptoms of gender dysphoria during or right after puberty, Lisa Littman, a physician and professor of behavioral science at Brown University, found that over 80 percent of the youth in her sample were female at birth. Littman’s study reported many other surprising findings. To meet the diagnostic criteria for gender dysphoria, a child typically needs to have shown observable characteristics of the condition prior to puberty, such as “a strong rejection of typically feminine or masculine toys," or “a strong resistance to wearing typically feminine or masculine clothes." Again, 80 percent of the parents in the study reported observing none of these early signs in their children.

Brightburn as an Anti-Immigration Movie? By James Reed

     I saw the clip for Brightburn (2019) on You-Ban-It-Tube, and did not think much of it. Basically, it retells the Superman origin story, with an evil Superman. Mum believes in her little boy from space, but in the end, he kills every main character, his foster dad with his heat vision, and his mum by dropping her from high up. Then he takes out a plane. Presumably the next movie has him going to the city, destroying that, then facing the military. Oh, his weakness is metal from the space craft that he landed in. Here is a take on all of this, giving it an anti-immigration spin:
  https://www.counter-currents.com/2019/06/the-greatest-anti-immigration-film-of-all-time-brightburn/

“In a remarkable final scene that appears only after the credits have begun to roll, a crazed Alex Jones-type character starts yelling about more reports coming from all over the world of violent happenings similar to those that have been occurring in Brightburn, Kansas. Much to the chagrin of the Leftists, these interstellar “migrants” are actually invaders. It does appear that the various nations are calling such reports “conspiracy theories.” Even as Armageddon looms, the Left cannot admit that it has been wrong all along and that diversity really isn’t our greatest strength. And in the most delicious irony of all, by deplatforming truthtellers like Alex Jones, only the Dissident Right will be aware that it’s time to take defensive actions. The Left would rather dismantle the 9-1-1 system than run the risk of being called racists for reporting an invasion by non-Europeans, even of the intergalactic kind.”

Transitioning to a Nappy Wearing Baby … And Why Not? By Mrs Vera West

     In our world, or is it worlds, of fluid genders and everything else, there is nothing preventing a person from identifying with being anything, even a light ray, a black hole or an entire galaxy. Or closer to home, a baby who needs nappies. This is the original site that I followed from Natural News, and I was shocked to some near-naked lady in an ad for a motor bike. I am still shocked, but should not be, anymore than a surgeon should feel queasy at the sight of blood. So, viewer discretion advised …  no, don’t go there. Wait, the ad is gone and there are a bunch of Leftists rattling on about something … gasp!

  https://www.naturalnews.com/2019-06-11-man-who-transitioned-into-a-woman-then-into-a-diaper-wearing-baby.html

“Consider 21-year-old “Camille” Lola, a self-identifying “transgender” who after his “conversion” came to the realization that he still isn’t happy or content, which prompted him to “convert” again into a diaper-wearing “baby.” According to reports, the Switzerland native decided to become a “baby” upon realizing that he wasn’t actually a “woman” inside a man’s body, but rather a deeply broken individual who experienced serious trauma when he was a child, and now wants to “correct my life” by reliving his earliest years. Presumably at the prompting of his “affirming friends,” Camille decided that the best course of action early on was to deny his biological existence and pretend to be the opposite sex, which didn’t work. So, he’s now trying another form of role-playing that, like his first attempt, will also be unsuccessful. That’s because Camille is in need of loving therapy or counselling to help him overcome his mental derangement, which he’s apparently beginning to self-diagnose as he explores transition after transition, while never finding success.”

Life in Diverse, Exciting London By Richard Miller

     A reader asked why I am still in London. Well, someone has to report from the war zone! And war it is, seemingly of all against all, as gay people, among most others, are regularly assaulted. The latest:

“Five teenagers have now been arrested over a robbery and homophobic attack on a couple after they 'refused to kiss' while travelling on a bus, police said this evening. Melania Geymonat, 28, from Uruguay, was with her American girlfriend Chris after an evening out in West Hampstead, London, when they were attacked at 2.30am on May 30. Police say the couple were sat on the top deck when they were approached by a group of males who began to make lewd and homophobic comments to them. The pair were punched several times and left covered in blood before the males ran off the bus. A phone and bag were also stolen during the assault. Four males aged between 15-18 were arrested on Friday on suspicion of robbery and aggravated GBH. The fifth suspect was detained on Saturday morning. "They have been taken to separate London police stations for questioning," a Met Police spokesman said.
