Sad Clown World By Mrs Vera West

     It gets weirder by the moment, the insane gender agenda. What would people back in the 1960s have thought if they could see all of this stuff now? Would they have fought a bit harder, or just continued to apathetically hide in consumer land?
  https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2020/07/06/human-rights-campaign-erases-biology-in-transgender-safer-sex-guide-assigns-vagina-to-trans-women-exclusively/

“The Human Rights Campaign (HRC) effectively erased biological facts in its latest “Transgender Safer Sex” guide, redefining basic body parts and assigning “vagina” as a term used to describe the genitals of biological males who “have had bottom surgery.” The HRC, in a “safer sex guide for transgender and gender expansive people,” redefined basic biological body parts under the guise of inclusivity, effectively stripping females of their own biology and assigning it to biological males. The group’s blunt guide provided a list of words and provided its own definitions — definitions that do not coincide with biological fact. For instance, HRC defined “vagina” as a word used to “talk about the genitals of trans women who have had bottom surgery.” Yet, the HRC refused to use the same term for biological women, assigning them the term “front hole.” Similarly, HRC also redefined male genitalia, proclaiming that it could “belong to people of all genders.”

Shocking: Transgender Ideology “Corrosive” By Mrs Vera West

     This was so shocking in this day and age, that I had to look away from the screen, cover my eyes, go have a cup of tea, then brace myself. Here it is, more of all of the transgender news fit to print:
  https://www.breitbart.com/europe/2020/07/02/transgender-ideology-has-corrosive-impact-society-says-study/

“The mainstreaming of transgender ideology has had a “corrosive impact” on British society and has had a negative influence on the wellbeing of children, a study from think tank Civitas has found. The former director of the Centre for the Study of Higher Education at the University of Kent, Dr Joanna Williams, wrote in her report The Corrosive Impact of Transgender Ideology that transgenderism has moved from a “niche” concern to a main political focal point over the past two decades as a result of the British establishment coalescing “behind the demands of a tiny transgender community”. “Previously authoritative institutions now lack confidence in their own ability to lead and look to the transgender community as a victimised group that can act as a source of moral authority. However, this, in turn, erodes sex-based rights and undermines child protection,” Dr Williams wrote. “People in positions of power within the realms of media, education, academia, police, social work, medicine, law, and local and national government have been prepared to coalesce behind the demands of a tiny transgender community,” she added. The report called for the government to ban the prescription of puberty blockers for children under the age of 18, to prohibit the study of transgender claims that contradict biological realities, and to ban schools from allowing students to ‘socially transition’ at school without the permission of parents.”

Why Progressives Hate Masculinity By John Steele

     Another good video by Bull Hansen, sitting back with a steaming hot cup of coffee in the Nordic forest, pondering why the Left hates masculinity. And his answer is because traditional masculinity is the antithesis of what they represent, a positive force to their negative, creative rather than their nihilistic destruction. Nothing we have not said before, but to see someone talk about this in a relaxed fashion, while most of us are battle fatigued and pretty edgy, is refreshing, like a hot coffee on a miserably cold day.

Kicking the Habit: Now a Lesbian Jesus! By Mrs Vera West

     Outrageous, but that is a sign of the times. A lesbian Jesus? I kid thee not:
  https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2020/07/02/mass-petition-demands-blocking-of-habit-film-where-paris-jackson-plays-lesbian-jesus/

“Hundreds of thousands of people have signed a petition to demand the blocking of the upcoming film Habit in which Paris Jackson reportedly plays the role of a “lesbian Jesus.” The petition on Change.org calls on Warner Bros and other distributors to reject this “blasphemous Hollywood film” that sees Jackson play the role of Jesus alongside model and actress Bella Thorne, who plays a woman with a Jesus fetish pretending to be a nun in order to hide from the criminal drug world. It also claims Jesus is depicted as a “lesbian woman,” although this has yet to be confirmed by producers. The petition reads: A new blasphemous Hollywood film is predicted to come out soon depicting Jesus as a lesbian woman. The film ‘Habit’ stars Paris Jackson who plays the role of ‘lesbian Jesus. Distributors haven’t picked it up as of yet, so let’s please spread awareness and wake people up to the Christianophobic garbage that is spread nowadays, but is somehow accepted and praised by society. A separate petition set up by One Million Moms, a subsidiary of the conservative American Family Association, has also received tens of thousands of signatures. In their argument, organizers make the point Hollywood studios would never allow a film mocking Islam and the Prophet Muhammed in such a manner. “This sacrilegious movie Habit mocks Christianity and ridicules people of faith,” the petition states. “Elevated Films represents the US rights to the project. Elevated Films has obviously gone too far. The company would never, in a million years, produce a film that defamed Muhammad in a similar fashion.” According to one of the film’s producers, Donovan Leitch, music will also play an important role in the film. In a recent interview with Entertainment Weekly, Leitch admitted to having “intentionally stacked the film with rock stars and will have a very rocking soundtrack.” Jackson, who is the daughter of the legendary pop star Michael Jackson, has had a relatively limited acting career so far. The 22-year-old’s main credits include appearances in several episodes of the musical drama series Star as well as a leading role in the crime comedy film Gringo.”

The Sport of Rape of White Women in Europe By Mrs Vera West

     The only way to make sense of this is that a civilisation has given up on itself and is happy to allow its women and children to be raped, wanting to be cancelled.

“According to statistics released by police in the German capital of Berlin, the city saw 210 rapes between March and July, an average of two rape cases per day. The State Police criminal investigation unit, known in Germany as the Kripo, said that cases of serious rape in Berlin are surging, and of the 210 cases reported between March and July at least 50 of the victims were children below the age of 16. The Kripo also say that around half of the suspects in the rape cases come from a foreign background — far higher than the migrant population of Berlin, which amounts to around 29.9 per cent of the city’s total residents, Focus reports. Marcel Luthe, a member of the Free Democratic Party (FDP), commented on the statistics, saying: “The far disproportionate proportion of foreign suspects shows that the causes urgently need to be clarified and discussed transparently. And then effective crime prevention must be pursued.”

Unspoken Slavery By Mrs Vera West

     This is an issue that even the nationalist do not talk about much, since the sexual exploitation of White women, especially Nordics/Northern Europeans, is a given now. The past saw Nordic women sold as sexual slaves in the Middle East, and it is still going on today. Here is some background reading, if one can stomach it:

Pope Francis, the Woke Pope By Peter West

     Due to the Covid-1984 freak-out, one of the few good things is that we have not hear much from the Pope, who has been keeping his head down, and remaining in the Vatican eating, no doubt his supply of apocalyptic freeze-dried food, while servants do his laundry, all of those nice white robes, making them Covid safe.

  https://www.americamagazine.org/faith/2020/09/17/pope-francis-parents-lgbt-children-god-loves-your-children-they-are

“Pope Francis told a group of parents of L.G.B.T. children yesterday that “God loves your children as they are” and “the church loves your children as they are because they are children of God.” He did so in a brief encounter with some 40 Italian parents (both mothers and fathers) of L.G.B.T. children after the public audience in the Renaissance courtyard of San Damaso in the Vatican. The parents are members of an Italian association, Tenda di Gionata (“Jonathan’s Tent”), which welcomes and provides information and formation to L.G.B.T. Christians, their families and pastoral workers. The association was founded in 2018 by people inspired by a Catholic priest, the late Rev. David Esposito from the Diocese of Fermo in the Marches region of Italy. Mara Grassi, the vice president of the association, together with her husband Agostino Usai—both wearing masks—presented the pope with a booklet titled “Genitori Fortunati” (“Fortunate Parents”) that documented the experiences of these parents with the church, experiences that were at times far from easy, and their requests for acceptance despite all too often being considered “undesirable” by church communities.”

There is No Bottom to Cultural Degeneracy By Mrs Vera West

     The Left have been busy defending the kiddie porno of “Cuties” because the Right has been outraged, so, the strategic thing to do, is to press the advantage home.
  https://www.breitbart.com/entertainment/2020/09/17/nolte-nbc-article-defends-cuties-only-conspiracy-theorists-oppose-soft-core-child-porn/

“An NBC News article defends Netflix’s Cuties premised on the idea that only a right-wing conspiracy theorist could oppose soft-core child pornography. So Netflix releases a movie with countless scenes off 11-year-olds dressed like hookers twerking, which includes countless shots of the camera lingering on 11-year-old butts shaking in short-shorts, 11-year-old legs spread wide-open wearing only bikini shorts, 11-years old girls dry-humping the ground; and NBC believes criticism of such a thing can only come from “the pedophile-obsessed American right, driven by QAnon.” We’re told by the left “Baby It’s Cold Outside” is dangerous. So it’s blacklisted. We’re told by the left Kindergarten Cop is dangerous. So it’s blacklisted. And then we’re told by the left only a TrumpTard could be outraged by close-up crotch shots of 11-year-old girls in Daisy Dukes. The piece is some 1200 words long and nowhere does it suggest that Cuties’ critics are anything other cynically motivated right-wingers, are anything other than “a hodgepodge of insane far-right conspiracy theories called QAnon, a movement that posits that senior Democrats, Hollywood executives and media barons feast, quite literally, on children, whom they also molest.” Nowhere does the NBC piece leave open the possibility that well-intentioned people are horrified by a movie that sexually exploits children. Honestly, how much further can the left and the media fall? Trust me, there is no bottom.  The left are not only vigorously defending the hyper-sexualization of prepubescent girls, they are attacking anyone horrified by what was done to a handful of very young actresses as wackos and liars who just like trolling the librallllz. After same sex marriage, we asked ourselves what the left’s nonstop envelope-pushing would attempt to normalize next. Well, we found out. We’re now required to have our daughters share a restroom with a 45-year-old man wearing a wig and pantyhose.”

Macho Cooking for Real Men By John Steele

     Here are two good videos by YouTuber Donnie be All Day, a pro-Trump patriot, and returned soldier who served in Afghanistan. He generally does the best YouTube review of knives, something which I am sure most of us here are interested in, being sharp, red-blood folks. But in these videos, he strays a bit and expresses his love for Australia, having fought alongside Aussies. And, he is pretty sympathetic to the plight of men today, and having some experience in cooking comes up with some simple, yet fantastic meals that men can make, you know, the divorced set, to nourish their bodies, and keep their spirits up in these tough times.  A good chicken fried steak will go down well in the trenches. I might cook one up tonight on the camp fire, out here in the wilderness, with just my Cold Steel  1917 Frontier Bowie  knife for companionship, and meat-cutting prowess.

It’s All Men’s Fault: UN By Mrs Vera West

John Wayne Would Not “Care a Damn”! By John Steele

     John Wayne is my favourite actor, far better than the over-rated mumbling Clint Eastwood, and of course, today’s generation are just trash. I know that John Wayne is not Marion Morrison, but a persona, a representation of manhood, so it is always good to ask: what would John Wayne do, the guy who in The Searchers, travelled five years through the West to seek out those Indians who massacred his family. The man with “true grit.”
  https://www.breitbart.com/entertainment/2020/06/27/democrats-in-orange-county-want-john-waynes-name-off-airport-over-racist-and-bigoted-statements/
  https://www.amren.com/commentary/2020/06/the-attack-on-john-wayne-is-an-attack-on-white-america/

     The attack on John Wayne is simply an attack upon white heroes. He said nothing that the Founding Fathers would have objected to, and perhaps they would have seen him as too liberal. Thus, in defiance we should collect as many of his movies as possible, which are far superior entertainment and inspiration than the sewerage that flows from Hollywood today. In doing so, we are working to defend our own white identity, as we circle wagons in the return to an eviler version of the Wild West, which will eventually be on every street.

The Gay Kiwi Fruit Parliament By Ron Dyson

     Cheer up Aussies, at least you are not New Zealanders! Life is not all bad:
  https://www.sbs.com.au/news/new-zealand-is-on-track-to-elect-the-gayest-parliament-in-the-world

“Based on current polling, the number of LGBTQI+ MPs in New Zealand's 120-seat House of Representatives is predicted to swell to a world-leading 7.5 per cent after September's election. New Zealanders are poised to elect the 'gayest parliament in the world' in September, vaulting the South Pacific nation past the world-leading United Kingdom for representation. The current 'rainbow caucus' say there's still plenty to do for LGBTQI+ Kiwis, even after same-sex marriage's legislation and great strides in ending discrimination against the queer community. There are currently seven out-and-proud MPs in New Zealand's 120-seat House of Representatives. That will swell to nine on the basis of current polling, and up to 11 should the Greens increase their vote on election day; 19 September.”

The Civil Rights Constitution By Chris Knight

     Recent US  supreme court decisions have indicated that the constitution of old has now been replaced by a new civil rights constitution, primarily anti-white and ingrained into law students, who go out in the wide world to sow its seeds of destruction:
  https://vdare.com/articles/caldwell-is-right-the-new-civil-rights-constitution-has-displaced-the-u-s-constitution-what-now

“Recent disastrous decisions by our “conservative” U.S. Supreme Court shows that, if Ann Coulter’s Adios America! was the most important book of the 2016 election, Christopher Caldwell’s The Age of Entitlement is the most important book of the 2020 cycle. He argues that the new constitution effectively created by the misnamed Civil Rights Act has displaced the old Constitution that the Framers gave us. Now it appears the “conservative movement” is submitting to this Cultural Marxist revolution. There’s nothing left to “conserve.” Americans need to take a more proactive strategy to safeguard our liberties. Thanks to immigration policy, nonwhites are now the majority of Americans under age 16 [Census shows white decline, nonwhite majority among youngest, by Mike Schneider, Associated Press, June 25, 2020]. The Supreme Court is apparently making decisions establishing the new legal order for this emerging Third World America. “Law is whatever is boldly asserted and plausibly maintained,” said Aaron Burr. It’s hard to believe SCOTUS made its two recent decisions in good faith. It seems far more likely that a majority in each case envisioned the outcome they wanted in advance and then reasoned backwards.

How Low Can Reality TV Go? By Mrs Vera West

     When I read the headline about a reality TV show where “men compete to impregnate a woman,” it made even me a bit feministy. I thought that each week some guy would win the right for sex, and then we would see who lucked out in the great sperm wars. No, it just shows how this job of reporting the decline can get to one, But, no doubt, a program like that is down the track:
  https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2020/jun/18/labor-of-love-reality-tv-women-dystopia
  https://www.theguardian.com/tv-and-radio/2020/may/21/labor-of-love-kristin-davis-fox

“Let’s watch, shall we, as a woman struggles with one of the most common sources of distress for the modern middle-aged woman: fertility. She’s got good eggs, some of them frozen, but what she needs is sperm, and the body in which that sperm is contained. Despite being pretty in a Getty-stock-image kind of way, and despite being a successful holistic health and beauty expert, Kristy has not yet found her fantasy husband. So, she has turned to reality television programming to help her out. That’s the premise of the new show Labor of Love, in which 15 men compete to be the “one” honored with impregnating the show’s heroine. As I watched her journey toward motherhood unfold, I thought, finally. Finally, someone has found a way to make a buck off the fracturing of the American family. Of course I don’t mean Kristy, who clearly isn’t being paid enough to live in this McMansion that is decorated like an inspirational quote rendered in brick, tile and cozy synthetic-fiber throws. I mean the host – Kristin Davis of Sex and the City fame – and the production team, the executives at Fox and all the pharmaceutical companies advertising the mood stabilizers that suddenly look good to me at the commercial breaks. The show is traditionally structured, with a group of one gender vying for the heart of this pinnacle, this paragon of the other gender. Kristy’s defining feature is that she is a woman, and like all girls, she is not like other girls. She’ll be a cool mom, still able to get into skinny jeans and levels of Instagrammable cuteness. She’s just looking for someone who will be a real partner to her, you know?

The Great Purge in the Era of Left Wing State Terrorism By Brian Simpson

     With statues being torn down everywhere, speech codes and attacks on everything white, even snow, milk, you name it, founding intellectuals like Charles Darwin will go, but not of course Einstein, who is still cool, but for how much longer, for all of those symbols in General Relativity tensor theory are surely discriminatory. Look: Pretty, eh?
  https://www.amren.com/news/2020/06/im-a-sociologist-who-got-canceled-and-i-fear-charles-darwin-might-not-survive-this-purge-of-science-history/

The Western world appears to be in the midst of a “woke” Cultural Revolution. Historical monuments are being toppled, popular authors are being denounced for saying “sex is real,” and corporations are rushing to pledge fealty. A question that naturally arises at the beginning of any such period of upheaval is, “Who will survive the purge, and who won’t?” I fear that even Charles Darwin might not be safe. Activists with a penchant for iconoclasm have set their sights not only on monarchs, imperialists and slave traders, but on scientists too. Earlier this year, University College London published the final report of its “Inquiry into the History of Eugenics at UCL.” Among the report’s recommendations were that the Pearson Building, the Galton Chair and the Galton Lecture Theatre “should lose their current names as soon as possible (de-named).” The Pearson building is named after Karl Pearson, a statistician who invented many tools that are still in use today, such as Pearson’s correlation coefficient. The other two items are named after Sir Francis Galton, a polymath who did pioneering work in statistics, psychometrics, geography and anthropology. In support of its recommendation to “de-name” Pearson and Galton, the UCL report cites various statements of theirs advocating eugenics, referring to “higher” and “lower” races, and describing other ethnic groups in extremely crude terms.

The Head Girl Syndrome By Brian Simpson

     This is interesting, the “head girl syndrome,” where the system wants the sorts of people that American Renaissance celebrates, high IQ performers. But not genuine genius, which is more unstable and unpredictable, but yields, often, the material which changes the world:
  http://www.amerika.org/politics/how-meritocracy-defeats-civilization/
  http://iqpersonalitygenius.blogspot.com/2013/07/the-head-girl-syndrome-opposite-of.html?utm_source=amerika.org

“The ideal Head Girl is an all-rounder: performs extremely well in all school subjects and has a very high Grade Point Average. She is excellent at sports, Captaining all the major teams. She is also pretty, popular, sociable and well-behaved. The Head Girl will probably be a big success in life, in whatever terms being a big success happens to be framed (she will gravitate towards such aspects of life) – so she might in some times and places make a Good Marriage and do a great job of raising a family; in another time and place she might go to a top-notch college and get a top-notch job – and pursue a glamorous and infertile lifestyle of ‘serial monogamy’; with desirable mates. But the Head Girl is not, cannot be, a creative genius. Modern society is run by Head Girls, of both sexes, hence there is no place for the creative genius. Modern Colleges aim at recruiting Head Girls, so do universities, so does science, so do the arts, so does the mass media, so does the legal profession, so does medicine, so does the military… And in doing so, they filter-out and exclude creative genius. The genius is pretty much everything the Head Girl is not. He is lop-sided in his abilities – truly excellent at some things or maybe just one thing, he is either hopeless or bored by many others. He won’t work hard for long periods at things he does not want to do. He will not gravitate to the prestige areas of life, or cannot or will not do the networking necessary to get-on. The Head Girl can never be a creative genius because she does what other people want by the standards they most value. She will worker harder and at a higher standard in doing whatever it is that social pressure tells her to do – and she will do this by whatever social standards prevail, only more thoroughly. Meanwhile the creative genius will do what he does because he must. The Head Girl will not ever want to alienate potentially powerful allies. Meanwhile the creative genius is indifferent or hostile to the opinions of others so long as he knows he is right.”

Transgender USA; It is All Happening, and Coming Here Soon! By Mrs Vera West

     An update in all the transgender news worth printing; this time developments from the United States:
  https://www.naturalnews.com/2020-06-16-supreme-court-just-went-all-in-with-transgenderism-lgbt.html

“In a 6-3 ruling, the US Supreme Court just announced that the 1964 civil rights law should be reinterpreted to accommodate gender confusion as well. If a man decides to dress as a woman and present himself as the opposite gender, an employer will no longer have a say in the matter. The employer won’t be able to comment about it, won’t be able to make the employee change his/her appearance, and definitely won’t be able terminate their employment or refuse the person services. Because of this ruling, American employers will now have to cater to transgenderism and all its whims and fantasies. In order to accommodate transgender desires, an employer may have to fund the hormones, drugs and surgeries that a transgender employee feels is necessary. The employer could also be forced to accommodate transgenders in new ways, giving them access to restrooms of their own choice, while allowing them to imitate members of the opposite gender without … having any discourse about it. If a transgender feels intimidated, questioned or judged in the workplace, they can hold their employer accountable for “discrimination.” Churches that fundamentally disagree with this kind of gender-confused behavior will not be allowed to dissent any longer, for this could be interpreted as “discrimination.” Churches could be forced to recognize and officiate transgender partnerships and same sex marriages or else be accused of discrimination.

Rowling Over Rowling By Mrs Vera West

     Well, here is one of those delightful stories in the land of political correctness as the usually pc J K Rowling makes some Tweets saying that, well, there are biologically based sexual differences, Oh, chaos:
  https://variety.com/2020/film/news/jk-rowling-transphobic-tweets-controversy-1234627081/

“Many people are calling out “Harry Potter” author J.K. Rowling for a series of anti-trans tweets on Saturday afternoon. Rowling’s latest controversy began when she commented on an article from Devex, a media platform for the global development community, titled “Opinion: Creating a more equal post-COVID-19 world for people who menstruate.” “‘People who menstruate.’ I’m sure there used to be a word for those people. Someone help me out. Wumben? Wimpund? Woomud?” Rowling tweeted. People on Twitter immediately called Rowling’s comments “anti-trans” and “transphobic” as transgender people, non-binary people and gender-nonconforming people can also menstruate. Rowling followed that tweet up by criticizing the idea that someone’s biological sense isn’t real. “If sex isn’t real, there’s no same-sex attraction. If sex isn’t real, the lived reality of women globally is erased. I know and love trans people, but erasing the concept of sex removes the ability of many to meaningfully discuss their lives. It isn’t hate to speak the truth,” she wrote. “The idea that women like me, who’ve been empathetic to trans people for decades, feeling kinship because they’re vulnerable in the same way as women — ie, to male violence – ‘hate’ trans people because they think sex is real and has lived consequences — is a nonsense.”

Anastasia Lin: China, Friend or Foe (Spoiler: Foe) By James Reed

     Readers may enjoy listening to someone much easier on the eye, than I am on the word, the delightful Anastasia Lin, who won the Miss World Canada title in 2015. However, the Chinese commos refused her an entry visa for the Miss World 2015, held in China, declaring her persona non grata, even thought she was a Canadian citizen. China did not like her criticism of their human rights record. So, she was off on her further critical adventures and you can listen here, straight from the filly’s mouth. Obviously sweet and eye candy, if we are allowed to say that still, but with a clear message, to beware of China.

Londonistan: Christian Churches Close but Islamic Call to Prayer Heard by All! By Richard Miller

     Of course, it is symbolic of the future of the UK, looking ahead a few years, something the white capitalist would find inconceivable, operating in a paradigm where all that counts are the money-grubbing markets of today.
  https://www.lifesitenews.com/news/london-will-blare-islamic-call-to-prayer-during-ramadan-as-churches-remain-closed

“A London suburb totalling a mere 15 square miles in size and with a population of less than 300,000 people has granted permission for the first time to nine mosques to broadcast the Islamic call to prayer during Ramadan.
The news was published earlier this month in an article in The Metro, which included a video of the “Adhan” being chanted above from the roof of a mosque in Waltham Forest. Waltham Forest is one London’s 32 boroughs, each of which has its own elected local council. Clare Coghill, the leader of Waltham Forest Council, said that the Adhan being broadcast was “an alternative form of connection” for Muslims, with mosques currently closed along with all other places of worship in the U.K. as part of the nationwide coronavirus lockdown. “Ramadan is normally a time for the Muslim community to come together to pray and break their fast,” she said. “Like many aspects of all our lives, this has been affected by Covid-19 and the requirement to remain socially distant. As an alternative form of connection during this special month, the Waltham Forest Council of Mosques contacted the council to request that as an alternative to congregating they announce a short call to prayer at a number of mosques adapted to remind worshippers to stay at home,” she continued. “The council considered the request as it would with any religious or faith group looking to responsibly worship during this difficult time. Ramadan Mubarak to all our Muslim community.” The Adhan will be broadcast each day at sunset, with an additional broadcast each Friday. The words in the Adhan state: “Allah is the greatest. I bear witness that there is no god except Allah. I bear witness that Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah. Come to prayer. Come to salvation.” Cardinal Vincent Nichols, the senior Catholic cleric in the U.K., marked the beginning of Ramadan by joining a host of religious leaders in an interfaith event titled “Ramadan at Home,” organised by the Naz Legacy.”
