Diogenes’ Middle Finger – The difference between leftwing ‘activism’ and the zombie apocalypse gets smaller by the day. If your cause requires bullying to get the message across perhaps it, and your defence of it, isn’t as righteous as you think it is. But I suppose it depends on whether you’re amused by making people miss flights and hospital appointments, or job interviews, or thwarting parents’ attempts to collect their children from school. That kind of thing. And regardless of the pretext offered on any given day, you do have to marvel at the moral vacancy of it all.
Apparently, it isn’t hard to understand that the way to make people sympathetic with your cause, whatever it may be this week, is to screw them over, because you can, and then applaud yourself for doing so. Somewhat harder to understand is that go-to solution, of which they so proud – i.e., the gratuitous trapping of motorists, is a moral non sequitur and rather like saying, “I’m troubled by the plight of the Javan rhinoceros, so I’m going to start spitting at the elderly and keying random cars, and then boast about it.” more

Heck, this is nothing. Like all communists they plan to put people in re-education camps and kill them if they don’t accept their program.
Mob violence is a favorer tool of the left, socialism, facism, communism nazism, all have it in common, the US verses THEM mentality,or the lack of it.
It’s the utter senselessness of it all. I felt a wave of nausea as I watched a kid — really, just a stupid punk who’s shot through every sympathetic family member and friend he probably ever had — take a baseball bat to all those cars in that sale lot in Kenosha. And when he’d gone down the row of cars he turned and struck blindly at anything else he could reach. Just kept batting away at inanimate things like he was in a psychotic state. And he probably was.
His only mute “statement”, if you could even call it that, was that he was just on a totally senseless rampage of destruction for destruction’s sake. Absolutely nothing else about him and his actions spoke anything else.
It was the same for that murderer in Portland. The man he killed wasn’t even a man to him, he was just an outlet for his psychotic break. You do enough drugs and eventually it happens if you’re already off kilter to begin with.
I’ve gotten into a wonderful habit of visiting diogenes’ site every Monday.. I can’t explain why.. the articles are just great I guess 😉
This is where we are. Democracy by extortion. The warnings being lobbed, particularly on the left, elect Biden or we’ll burn the country down.
They forget the resistance began Nov 8, 2016 and whether it’s the March du jour, internal govt dissidents, unending lawsuits filed against the Trump admin/personally or activist judges, we’re hardened to their threats. They haven’t allowed him to govern since day one.
I believe they’ll be continued riots regardless and the election won’t be decided for days if not weeks.
The progressive movement is motivated by increasing innocent suffering, misery and death. It has been since its inception. It is a haven for self haters who have reduced themselves to being subhuman pieces of shit.
What else is new? They subscribe to a wicked and evil political philosophy, they are misery incarnate and misery loves company. They lack what takes to do anything the least bit positive, they are penurious to a fault and project their own despicable traits onto others.
I have no use for them whatsoever.
You and me and all good Americans are fed up with these turkeys. “We’re mad as hell and we’re not going to take it anymore.”
If they get power, the intermediate chair throwing and screaming bullying will become the Mao; “out of the end
of a gun” kind.
Diogenes is correct.
It will backfire against them.
The sleeping giant will eventually have had enough.
mickey,
The people that just want to be left alone are a simmering pot of “just about had enough”. The behaviors of these feral oxygen-wasters are turning up the burner with every incident. The “victims” in these assaults blindly believe the government will protect them and that makes them fools.
After 4 years of ad hoc and mostly spontaneous and unorganized demonstrations, the rioters have a strong command and control structure put into place by the Revolutionary Communists, a real Maoist organization. Sept 17th will be day one of a hostile takeover of the Capital and White House area of Washington DC by dupes and idiots as directed by their communist masters. The RCP thinks the prairie fire has started and they want to be the vanguard that directs it.
