That 29% approval rating on CNN comes from people who watch or spoke to a CNN poll. Nation wide, the Democrats very likely have much lower numbers. Here Brad shows us why.
So Joy Reid and her mother somehow managed to escape Guyana on a mission of mercy to enlighten provincial Americans only to find the provincials impervious to enlightenment.....back to Guyana perhaps?
Please all of you, read the City of Water article. It’s awesome! Thank you very much Brad! It reminded me a bit of my 10 years in construction relining the insides of cement kilns. But that was easy compared to this. One more thought; back in the 1920s as cities became megacities in this country, either Mechanics Illustrated or Popular Mechanics magazine had an opinion piece by an engineer reading that modern cities of scale were completely unsustainable. He cited water, power, waste & the need to continually bring in ever greater amounts of supplies into these cities. This follows the pattern of collapses of other civilizations before. Had the world listened to Frank Lloyd Wright’s Broadacre City proposal, many of modern society’s ills would be far less.
"And so undergirding this is a very dark idea that to be competent is to be a white man and to be a straight, heterosexual white man.” — NYT’s Mara Gay, during an appearance on MSNBC
I wonder if someone will be offended by Gay's use of the term "dark" to describe "white" cultural beliefs.
"a very dark idea that to be competent is to be a white man and to be a straight, heterosexual white man.”
This coming from the same people who think that black people need quotas, lowered standards, speech codes to protect their fragile feelings, that they should be given HS diplomas even if they can't read or do math (Oregon), that asking them to be punctual is "white supremacy", asking them to get voter IDs is "Jim Crow 2.0", and that "young Black kids...don’t even know what the word computer is" (Kathy Hochul).
The racialist Brahmin Left has created a pious faith out of tokenism, paternalism and the twin pillars of White Guilt//White Saviorism.
They are going to save the poor and brown-skinned, whether they like it or not!
I have been thinking for some time that the leftists make excuses for society’s losers because the leftists themselves have so much contempt for sub-elite people. One example is how they have tried to replace the word “gang” with “group.” As in, “Groups of young people gathered together to help and protect the people in their neighborhoods.” The white elitists don’t want to admit that the young hoodlums they are pretending to care about are actually gang members, because they regard gang members as worthless trash. But of course that makes them “racists,” which they undoubtedly are, and therefore evil. So then when anyone else makes a realistic comment about gang violence, the elitists shriek about that person’s “bigotry” to divert attention from their own racism and to destroy that part of themselves by proxy. Projection can be fun, I guess, and it certainly does confuse the third party whose relative lack of racism enables him or her to perceive and speak frankly about social pathologies in black communities.
yeah, something weird and warped has happened to this thing we call the "Left" ever since it jettisoned the working class and became a sort of one-stop shop to organize everyone w an antisocial grudge.
In the case of black people, i think in the Left dispensation they don't get to exist as flesh-and-blood fallible mammals like the rest of us, but become symbols and totem fetish objects whose entire purpose is to allow the aspiring savior to display how much more enlightened and compassionate they are than those OTHER white people over there, aka conservatives.
Thus, as w the example you mentioned, it's more important to worship and coddle them than it is to try to find solutions that might work in the real world to help them. Probably the best example of this is the absolutely moronic idea of Defund the Police, which ended up getting more black people killed but which served its ultimate purpose of allowing people who don't have to worry about crime to preen as white saviors.
Whille the apostles of white guilt might have protected and helped black people in the 20th century, here in the 21st they need to let them walk/run on their own and at last become subjects not objects.
Very weird indeed! I agree with your ideas about the exploitive evangelical attitudes and behaviors exhibited by the leftists. It is still so odd, not like other "movements" I've participated in during the Sixties, Seventies, Eighties and Nineties. I would say that our adversary is an authoritarian, decentralized, cultic movement, that is of an increasingly religious type. I would say that it is also a pathological movement with sadistic violent tendencies towards people "on the other side."
I find that if SJ is viewed through the prism of a religious cult, it becomes clearer and makes more sense. It is a sort of post-Christian post-Marxist therapeutic church for the many lost souls of the 21st century.
You can kill off organized religion, you can even kill off God, but you can never kill off all the social, spiritual, psychological etc needs that humans have and the ways they organize to get them met.
It feels sort of like if Patty Hearst's SLA or the Manson Family got as rich and popular as the Catholic Church.
Exactly. SJ is now the state religion in blue states. Its progress pride flag is planted everywhere, from churches to government buildings to health care facilities. So obvious.

..... never truer or better exemplified than with today's woke leadership/MSM. A combination of acting, derangement, desperation, greed, and political "expediency" must accompany, in varying degrees, pure stupidity in these characters, as they cannot all be as stupid as they appear. They are playing to their shrinking audience.
It's like TayTay wants to die from Covid just to prove everyone else wrong. She probably screamed at retail workers in 2020 who dared taking the cart stuffed with items to place on the shelves the "wrong" way down the aisle.

Re: Walz cheering against the financial interests of his own constituents (via Tesla stock held in state funds)......
Tim hasn't often been described as being bright. A lot of other things, but rarely bright.
Tesla only exists because of pretentious wealthy proggies. Live by the proggies, die by the proggies.
Bud Light is a similar story. Had a huge market share from the not-remotely-woke, and the not-remotely-woke changed their minds.
Live by the sword, die by the sword.
Joy(less) Behar and Tim Walz are two of the dumbest people in American public life. Prove me wrong.
They prove you right, approximately every time they open their mouths.

I hope you are right. Lowest since 1992, but then I remember who won the 1992 election.

Tay-Tay definitely has "long COVID," and it's looking like she'll have "Forever COVID".
What was she throwing up out of her neck about before COVID?
She sprang, full-blown, from the forehead of Covid.

Oddly enough, that's almost exactly how leftists describe MAGA.
'the "Left"...jettisoned the working class and became a sort of one-stop shop to organize everyone w an antisocial grudge.'
Excellent description.
thanks!

Don Lemon: Even if people we hate are not racist, we need to say they are because that makes us win!
Joy Reid is a multimillionaire. How does that make her less privileged than 95% of America?
It's like TayTay wants to die from Covid just to prove everyone else wrong. She probably screamed at retail workers in 2020 who dared taking the cart stuffed with items to place on the shelves the "wrong" way down the aisle.
I thought Joy Reid done rode off into the sunset...
weird
All of these anarchists in support of expanding the government.
It's never about fighting power. It's always about keeping power with the left and dems.
Chris Murphy: we have to save the system. I’m getting kickbacks. I can’t have that stop. How will I pay Maria and Pedro who keep our house and yard?
Joy B3har with her uncles: She should be grateful for Trump. He is saving us from the Facistsl
Effing idiots…. That Moderna….has probably IMPROVED JOYLESS'mind to MORON-IDIOT level
