"All people are equal, but some people are more equal than others"

James Lindsay, anti-Communist on X

In some sense, Communism in practice really can be summarized in a single sentence: "All people are equal, but some people are more equal than others." It shares this trait with Fascism. This sentence, derived from George Orwell (in Animal Farm) is not just a clever contradiction, though. It's dialectical. It is a statement indicative of Communism not only because its contradictions appear in practice but because the contradictions themselves are dialectically written into the program. If we want to be able to fight Communism and Fascism, it is actually crucial to learn dialectics and how to pull this mode of thought apart. It is not optional. Leaving it as optional will invariably get us caught in far more dialectical traps than we would be in otherwise, and every such thing advances the cause of the ideology we're fighting. Here's a concrete example to make it more vivid. Diversity. We have spent the last several years (arguably 55) arguing about whether "diversity" is our strength, or what kind of diversity: demographic diversity or viewpoint diversity, or whatever. At no point were we understanding the dialectic behind the program called "Diversity." This program was also used under the dialectical materialism doctrine embraced by the Soviet Union, implemented by Vladimir Lenin himself. It was called Raznoobraziya (Разнообразие), which translates literally and directly as "diversity." Lenin did not mean just any kind of diversity, though. What he explicitly said he meant by Raznoobraziya is "diversity in form with unity in content," which can also be reversed to mean "achieving unity in content through diversity in form." Sounds like Orwell: "everyone is equal but some are more equal than others." Why? Because it's a dialectical formulation of "diversity." Lenin defined what he meant by Raznoobraziya under the "dialectical law" called "the struggle and unification of opposites." Difference (diversity) and sameness (unity) were brought together into a single concept. What it meant in practice is that diversity would be superficial, people from different backgrounds, while they'd all be Marxists in line with the Party. Diversity in outer form with unity in inner content. It also meant in practice that they would leverage socialists from different backgrounds to make more people socialists by using socialism as the basis for what it meant to be whatever background in an authentic way. If this sounds like the Diversity in DEI, it's because it is exactly that Diversity. You cannot understand what it is or how to engage it without understanding its dialectical formulation or how to handle a dialectical formulation. Arguing about the value of viewpoint diversity but the weakness of demographic diversity, for example, actually plays into the Diversity program, not against it. Many did this with totally good intentions. How does it play into their hands? Because the Woke worldview holds that viewpoint diversity is intrinsically linked to demographic diversity and have a well-developed theory of how that allegedly happens (called "standpoint epistemology," which is somewhat derivative to cultural relativism). They also have a well-developed critical theory of each identity and thus a claim that the Woke view of being that identity is the only one that's "authentic" to the "lived experience" of that "social position." That is, the Woke had already laid all the groundwork to capture "viewpoint diversity" on stronger terms than their critics could possibly mean it, and even though the critics holding up "viewpoint diversity" rightly perceived the trick (everyone is Woke no matter how diverse), they weren't equipped to defeat the dialectic being used against them. If you don't think this perspective was all that powerful, I urge you to understand that the ONLY reason we have a Woke professional and legal environment at all is because this stupid trick about standpoint epistemology being the right interpretation of viewpoint diversity is one of two stupid Woke arguments that fooled the Supreme Court at least as early as 1978 (Bakke v. Board of Regents) into arguing that college admissions can and should prioritize discrimination in the name of "Diversity" because "diversity" provides an enriching educational opportunity consistent with the colleges' missions. Civil Rights law got turned inside out in favor of Woke more or less overnight. (Cf. Griggs v. Duke Power for the other stupid trick, which is the "disparate impact" doctrine case). The correct way to deal with the dialectic is to point out its bogus terms in full (because the various parts point to various truths and cannot be dealt with separately). That is, in this case, Diversity has to be exposed as a cover story that isn't about diversity at all but is specifically designed to cherry-pick a single ideological view that gets channeled through the more superficial form of diversity. The focus has to be on the trick itself, that is, treating it as causal, not as an effect. Of course, on the other hand, yet another dialectical trick awaited people regarding Diversity. Lenin's protégé, in a sense, and successor, Josef Stalin, had another take on precisely the same dialectic. Stalin's went like this, much more bluntly: "National in form and Socialist in content." This was the basis for another Soviet program he and Lenin implemented in the 1920s called Korenizatsiya (Коренизация), which roughly means "making indigenous" or "rootification," to spin a new term. The explicit dialectical formulation makes it more clear: "national in form and Socialist in content." (Its focus on "diversity" in nationalities and in "national form" led Lenin to refer to Stalin as "the national socialist.") The difference here is that within the Soviet Union, Russian was also a nationality, in some sense part of the constellation of "Diversity" but differently. Eventually, therefore, when the favoritism of minority ethnicities and nationalities wore thin for the "Great Russians," who had been up to that point consistently accused of "Great Russian chauvinism" every time they disagreed with their minority-ethnicity comrades (who were more equal than others), they were led to assert their own nationality as well. In our current anti-Woke day, that means a rising white racial consciousness, male sexual consciousness, straight sexual (other meaning) consciousness, Christian nationalist religious consciousness, etc., as an alleged antidote to the Woke reverse prioritization. Now rather than just the minorities playing the game, everyone is playing the game. And what was Stalin's use and purpose with this reaction to the excesses, abuses, and failures of Korenizatsiya, arising roughly 6-8 years after its full implementation, btw? "Russification." Everyone would be Great Russian now, and the Soviet Union would just be "Mother Russia" again. What he did was as explicitly "all animals are equal but some animals are more equal than others" as could possibly have been done, likely inspiring Orwell for the famous line in Animal Farm. Stalin said that Russians, under Soviet Russification, would be "first among equals." This would have been roughly 1930, maybe 1931, and in implementation it required totally crushing the strongest ethnic minority who happened to occupy perhaps the most valuable land: the Ukrainians. Thus, in the winter of 1932-33, Stalin executes the Holodomor, the forced starvation of millions of Ukrainians under his new doctrines. No longer would Ukraine be allowed "self-determination" in its own "national form," however Socialist. That is, the dialectic was forced into synthesis. National in form and Socialist in content was presented with its negation, Russification, and forced into a synthesis literally described as "first among equals," itself a dialectical formulation. We have no choice but to understand this twisted, demented, manipulative logic if we want to combat Communism and Fascism. They operate on this logic. There is no other choice.

Fardad Farahzad | فرداد فرحزاد on X - "The Iranian uprising has become an awkward dilemma for much of the left. It is openly pro-Western, unapologetically secular, and explicitly hostile to political Islam. There is no favored “exotic victim” to romanticize, no anti-American slogans to recycle, no colonial guilt to put to use and for that very reason, exposes how selective so many proclaimed solidarities really are."
Sam Allam on X - "Of course. Imagine a free Iran uniting with Israel. That would be the worst nightmare for social justice activists, leftists and Islamists all over the world. A free Iran would cut off their revenue streams and destroy decades of their long-term investment"
Easy. They just blame Israel and the West

Meme - "Two Iranian leftist students celebrating Khomeini's takeover in 1979. Girl to the right was eventually executed by the IR. Girl to the left escaped to Sweden. Tens of thousands of leftists were executed by Islamists after Khomeini came into power."

The CIA Didn’t Create the Islamic Republic - "In much of the popular telling, modern Iranian history follows a simple arc. Iran had a democracy. In 1953, the CIA and British intelligence overthrew it by removing Prime Minister Mohammad Mosaddeq. The Shah returned, ruled as a Western-backed autocrat, and a quarter-century later the Islamic Republic emerged as the delayed consequence of that original sin.  This story is compelling. It offers moral clarity, a clear villain, and a straight line from foreign intervention to theocratic rule. But it is also incomplete. The habit of compressing this history into a morality tale—foreign intervention destroys democracy, which later returns as religious extremism—is emotionally satisfying but analytically false. Iran’s modern tragedy is not that its politics were hijacked once. It is that they never stabilized at all.  Iran did not move from democracy to theocracy because of a single covert operation. What unfolded between Mosaddeq’s rise in the early 1950s and Ayatollah Khomeini’s return in 1979 was a far longer process marked by weak institutions, unresolved political tensions, and repeated failures by Iran’s own elites—liberal, royalist, leftist, and clerical alike—to build a system resilient enough to endure crisis.  Understanding that history requires first understanding why Mosaddeq occupies such a central place in Iran’s political memory.  Mosaddeq came to office in 1951 through constitutional means, backed by a broad nationalist coalition demanding Iranian control over its oil... Mosaddeq governed a political system that was weak long before foreign intelligence services intervened... Under mounting pressure, Mosaddeq narrowed rather than broadened his coalition. He sought emergency powers, attempted to bring the armed forces under his direct authority, and dissolved parliament through a referendum marred by boycotts, intimidation, and implausible margins. By mid-1953, Iran no longer had a functioning legislature. A leader committed to constitutionalism was governing largely by decree.  Support fractured. Sections of the middle class drifted away. Senior military officers grew hostile. Clerical allies recoiled, worried about disorder and the growing influence of the communist Tudeh Party. Ayatollah Abul-Qasim Kashani, once a key partner in the nationalist movement, openly broke with Mosaddeq. These developments were not the product of foreign manipulation alone—they reflected a domestic political breakdown. Foreign intelligence services did intervene. Britain and the United States authorized a covert effort to remove Mosaddeq, and that fact is not in dispute. What is often overstated is how decisive that intervention proved to be. The initial attempt failed. Mosaddeq rejected the Shah’s dismissal decree, arrested its couriers, and the Shah fled the country. Both Washington and London believed the operation had unraveled.  What followed succeeded not because foreigners controlled events, but because Iranians took charge. Large crowds filled the streets. Clerics mobilized openly. Military units switched sides. State authority shifted rapidly. Mosaddeq surrendered. Contemporary U.S. embassy and CIA cables describe the speed and scale of these developments as unexpected, driven less by foreign direction than by loyalty to the monarchy, fear of instability, and exhaustion with political deadlock.  Mosaddeq was a tragic figure, but not a mythic one. He devoted his life to constitutional politics, yet under strain, he weakened the very institutions meant to sustain it. His removal was shaped by foreign interference, yes, but it was accelerated by domestic divisions that had already hollowed out the system. The return of Mohammad Reza Shah in 1953 did not immediately produce the authoritarian state later associated with the 1970s. The Shah came back cautious and constrained. For several years, Iran retained political parties, parliamentary life, and a degree of pluralism unusual in the region. This period contained genuine possibilities.  Those possibilities were gradually squandered... The Shah’s White Revolution reshaped Iranian society. Literacy increased, infrastructure expanded, and women entered education and the workforce in unprecedented numbers. These changes were real and significant. But they were not matched by meaningful political representation. Parliament lost credibility, courts lacked independence, and dissent was managed by security services rather than processed through politics.  Modernization without representation breeds expectations it cannot satisfy. A younger, educated society encountered progress without voice and order without legitimacy. By the late 1970s, Iran had no trusted mechanism to negotiate conflict. When crisis came, it could only be resolved in the streets.  The Islamic Revolution did not overthrow a functioning democracy; it replaced a system that had lost the confidence of nearly every constituency. Liberals lacked organization, the left lacked trust, nationalists lacked unity, and the monarchy lacked credibility. Only the clergy possessed nationwide networks, disciplined leadership, and a moral language that resonated across classes. They did not seize a stable order. They stepped into a vacuum.  From Mosaddeq to Khomeini, Iran’s trajectory was not a straight descent from democracy into dictatorship triggered by a single foreign plot. It was a prolonged failure to institutionalize governance, manage compromise, and ground legitimacy beyond personalities. Foreign interference mattered, and it left lasting damage. But it did not determine everything that followed. Domestic actors mattered more—and none succeeded in building a political system strong enough to endure repeated crises. Reducing this history to the CIA or foreign interference may be emotionally satisfying, but it badly distorts and oversimplifies reality. External interference mattered, yet it did not erase Iranian agency or determine the outcome. What failed, again and again, were domestic institutions and political actors unable—or unwilling—to build a system capable of surviving pressure, defeat, and compromise. The Islamic Republic was not imposed from abroad; it emerged from a vacuum created at home. Treating foreign powers as the sole authors of Iran’s fate turns structural failure into conspiracy, and prevents any serious reckoning with how revolutions are actually born."

Why has the BBC ignored the Iranian uprisings? - spiked - "Christmas coincided with the outbreak of the most serious anti-regime protests in Iran since the women’s rights protests of 2022. Insofar as reports proliferating on social media can be trusted, the current unrest has since eclipsed those protests by far, both in their geographical spread – reaching pretty much every city in Iran – and in the sweeping political demands of the protesters. These include an end to the rule of the ayatollahs and growing calls to restore the monarchy that was removed by the Islamic Revolution of 1979.  There are reliable reports of Iran’s Revolutionary Guard being deployed to break up demonstrations in their own inimitable way, of local government offices being broken into, and of several protesters being shot. It has also been reported that police have, in some instances, retreated in the face of superior numbers of demonstrators. More wishful reports should probably be treated with scepticism until proved authentic. We do not yet know if it’s true that mullahs have been discarding their turbans in order to blend into the population, or if the ayatollahs are retreating to their fastness in Qom. Or if Tehran airport has been closed, either to receive emergency defence shipments, from Moscow and elsewhere, or perhaps to facilitate the evacuation of the supreme leader and his coterie. That the situation is confused, however, is no reason not to report events that are not only dramatic and unusual at the very least, but could also potentially be of global importance. Trying to clear up confusion is, in any case, part of the media’s job. Yet the mainstream media in the West, especially in the UK, and most conspicuously the BBC, with the international reach it so prides itself on, have so far been largely missing in action where coverage of the Iranian protests is concerned.  Let me reiterate: it is entirely reasonable for news outlets in general, and for the BBC in particular, to take care in their coverage of unrest abroad, lest it be interpreted as taking sides. It should of course be wary of either becoming an unwitting participant in the protests and / or acting as a mouthpiece for a government with its own interests. But a careful approach need not, indeed should not, preclude efforts at objective reporting: the sort of reporting, in fact, on which many media outlets – in prime position, the BBC – have built their reputations. A week on from the start of the demonstrations, there remains a yawning gap where reporting on Iranian developments might be. The gap was first noted on social media, at a time when it was still just about possible to think that the protests were a transient phenomenon that should not be exaggerated and might soon peter out. It might then have been argued that excessive focus on the protests could be interpreted as incitement, and that those Western media and governments who might welcome regime change in Iran would be well advised to keep their hopes to themselves. As the days went by, the protests escalated, and the son of the late shah entered the fray on social media. The gap where mainstream-media coverage of Iran should have been only became more glaring. The question is why... The BBC and other outlets have broadcast copious reports about Gaza, including practically graphic accounts of bombed hospitals, hungry children and heroic aid workers, many of them based on footage filmed by local people or citizen journalists. By all means point out that foreign journalists are barred, but in this day and age, there are fallbacks. And there is lots of footage from Iran on social media, but it is for the most part not being transferred into the mainstream media. The BBC, of all news providers, has less reason to plead lack of first-hand information than most. It has a Persian Service, which has been a thorn in the side of the Iranian authorities to the point where its reporters and their families in Iran have been threatened. But the existence of BBC Persian should place its London-based operation in an incomparable position at least to gather and verify information coming from Iran, even if its reporters and sources must remain anonymous for security reasons. What has been heard from BBC Persian, however, since the protests began?... the risk that, say, the Arab Spring might have failed was never an excuse for not reporting what was going on. Outlets don’t usually place an embargo on certain outbreaks of unrest in case they come to nothing. That is not how news works."

בר שם-אור Bar Shem-Ur on X - "Take a look at CNN’s headlines. The Israeli military has assessed that at least 5,000 people were killed by the Iranian regime and shared that information with U.S. officials. Iranian opposition outlets, such as Iran International, report that the death toll may be as high as 12,000. So why does CNN choose to highlight the much lower estimate from a single human-rights organisation and then add that the numbers can’t be independently verified? When it came to Gaza, CNN had no problem amplifying inflated casualty figures from openly pro-Palestinian groups and even from Hamas sources themselves, often without emphasizing that those numbers also couldn’t be independently verified."

Brian Rosenwald on X - "Eh. The media not covering this has to do a) a lack of reporters in an authoritarian country, b) the inability to gauge if this is just another wave of protests or whether the regime could topple. And c) most Western outlets don’t have a lot of knowledge of Iran either. And this
Isn’t new fwiw. The Western media and the U.S. government was caught off guard when the Shah fell too."
ثنا ابراهیمی | Sana Ebrahimi on X - "So which is it, Brian?  Was Gaza covered 24/7 because Western media conveniently had reporters on the ground? (No they did not)  Or because editors "understand" Gaza but somehow can't grasp Iran? (Majority of Americans don't know that "Palestine" has never existed as a country)  Then explain this: during the 12-day Israel–Iran war, BBC, NYT, CNN ran nonstop coverage. Daily updates. Endless analysis. No confusion, no hesitation, no "lack of access" or "lack of understanding" excuses.  What changed?  Iran did not suddenly become harder to understand. Reporters did not suddenly disappear. The only thing missing now is Israel's direct involvement.  And there's the pattern. When Israel is in the frame, legacy media locks in. When Iranians are being killed in the streets of Tehran, silence.  This is intentional. Legacy media is not failing by accident, it is choosing what matters."

Eylon Levy on X - "Despite the absence of foreign journalists in Gaza, and therefore dependence on local Hamas fixers, Gaza was Channel 4’s #1 story for two years. Now, magically, Channel 4 says it can’t report on Iran’s uprising."
Sarah Ettedgui on X - "Interesting that when it comes to Iran, legacy media suddenly discovers the limits of reporting without access. Blackouts. Verification problems. Responsible restraint.  Yet Gaza has been reported on, in granular and emotive detail, for years without independent access, without free press on the ground, and often relying on figures and narratives produced by Hamas, a listed terrorist organization that exercises total control over Gaza, suppresses independent journalism, and has every incentive to weaponize information…  So perhaps the issue is not access, but selectivity?"

Eylon Levy on X - "Act 1: Channel 4 reporter explains they can’t cover Iran because there are no foreign journalists on the ground.
Act 2: Academic points out the obvious hypocrisy, because they obsessively covered Gaza.
Act 3: She blocks him."

The BBC’s meagre coverage of Iran protests has been disgraceful - "It has been the silence which has been so telling as hundreds of thousands have taken to the streets in Iran to oppose one of the most dangerous and deadly dictatorships on earth.  While brave Iranian people have come out to revolt against the misogynistic theocratic leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei – leading to dozens being killed and thousands being arrested – the usual suspects who will protest every time an IDF soldier or a Trump official sneezes, have kept schtum.  Greta Thunberg hasn’t mentioned getting on a boat. Jeremy Corbyn has instead been tweeting manically about America’s “invasion” of Venezuela. Perhaps they are confused. The Iranians shouting “Azadi, azadi, azadi”, translating as “Freedom, freedom, freedom”, want an end to the terrorist-supporting theocracy they appear to adore and want the Western freedoms they abhor.  It seems like they cannot understand these people rejecting jihadist Islam. The demonstrators of Iran, who have had more than their fill of Islamic “decolonisation”, upend this entire worldview. Mirroring the silence of our keffiyeh-wearing faux-freedom fighters is the sad fact that it took the BBC over a week to put the story of the new revolution in Iran onto its home page – the publicly funded, most-read news website in the country. It is, thankfully, there now. Writing on X about why the BBC has barely mentioned this uprising that has been going on for nearly two weeks, the BBC’s veteran World Affairs editor John Simpson put this down to how it was “very difficult to get correspondents in. The BBC is banned, and so are most others. It’s a bit like Gaza.”  This, of course, prompted much hilarity as the BBC quoted every cough and spit from Hamas when it came to its Gaza reporting. As Michael Prescott’s memo, first reported in The Telegraph, found: “Claims against Israel seem to be raced to air or online without adequate checks, evidencing either carelessness or a desire always to believe the worst about Israel.”... This is about priorities and mindset: three months after there was a ceasefire between Gaza and Israel, the “tab” for the Israel-Gaza war is third on the BBC website – ahead of news from the UK, the War in Ukraine, the Rest of the World and Politics... Iran is sometimes called “the head of the Octopus” because of all the places where it has tentacles in its open war against the West since Ayatollah Khomeini took control in 1979. It links the Israel-Palestine conflict, via its proxies Hamas and Hezbollah; to Venezuela, through which it gets both drugs and weapons to fund its terrorist groups; to the attacks on British shipping by another proxy, the Houthis; to the Russian war on Ukraine, which it supplies weapons for.  Iran also has a big impact on Britain itself: last July, Parliament’s intelligence and security committee warned that the UK faced a “rising” and unpredictable threat from the country.  Last year, security minister Dan Jarvis revealed that since 2022 MI5 have uncovered at least 20 assassination plots linked to the Islamic Republic against British nationals and residents. There have been multiple stories about pro-Iranian camps radicalising children in the UK. Iran, which has killed young women for showing too much hair, has shown us the danger of extremist Islam and has attempted to export it here. Some might say it has already succeeded."

AP on X - "Barely minutes after the Al-Ahli Arab Hospital bombing in Gaza, major papers had already “verified” information claiming Israel was responsible and detailing casualty numbers, even though no one actually knew anything at the time. It was later revealed that the explosion was caused by a failed Hamas rocket and that there were not many casualties.  Meanwhile, it has been over a week of protests in Iran. We know that many people are being killed, yet we still do not know how many or how severe the situation truly is. How is it that The New York Times and others, who seemed to know everything instantly in Gaza, suddenly do not know anything now? And why did they choose to invent details about Israel, but refrain from doing so when it comes to Iran?"

They don't oppose dictators, they want their side holding it.  During the Islamic Revolution, Marxists (MEK) and Communists (Tudeh Party) didn’t resist the Islamists, they collaborated with them. Different slogans, same addiction to authoritarian control.  They don’t hate tyranny. They just want to manage it, and live off other people’s labor while doing so."

Josh Rainer on X - "Every time you hear someone say Mosaddegh was “democratically elected” you know you’re listening to bullshit.  There were no elections for prime minister in Iran. The Shah had sole power to appoint/dismiss them at his will. This is communist propaganda.  It’s why they always talk about 1953 but never 1979 and Carter.  “CIA coup” Operation Ajax is wildly overstated. US/UK had minimal impact. This was Iran managing their own affairs.   Mosaddegh staged his own coup against the Shah, gave himself emergency powers and dissolved parliament with a rigged referendum. His support was mainly from the Soviet-backed communist Tudeh party.  The Shah constitutionally dismissed him. Operation AJAX failed. CIA even conceded defeat in memos and Kermit Roosevelt exaggerated his rogue role for credit.  1979 Carter attacked the Shah for human rights violations for suppressing communist-Islamist riots and sanctioned him with arms embargoes that destabilized Iran. He legitimized Khomeini through diplomatic communication and discouraged the military from defending the Shah. Iran went from ally to enemy, and we had to rely on Israel instead.  Mosaddegh was my great-grandmother’s first cousin and she considered him a stain on the family name for being associated with communists."

Melissa Chen on X - "Oh thank heavens for the Iranian people that the EU is “concerned” and are “monitoring the situation” while sipping espresso at Brussels HQ. Whatever would they do without the Eurocrats?!   Please spare us the meaningless drivel and performative nonsense that you "stand with" the people of Iran. Who the hell cares where you stand when there’s no action?   What concrete measures have been taken to help the Iranians being butchered on the streets of Tehran? Hell, where's the outright condemnation of the Iranian regime without the weasel words?   Instead, we get this vapid platitude parade and limp-wristed virtue signaling where "standing with" means… tweeting empty words.  Maybe if the EU was less afraid of offending tyrants, the Iranian people wouldn’t even be in this situation. Von der Leyen and her ilk love to posture as champions of human rights abroad while cracking down on dissent at home - censoring critics, flooding borders with unchecked migration, and eroding freedoms under the guise of "unity." Hypocrisy much?   If Europe truly gave a damn, it'd stop "monitoring" and start mobilizing - cut off the IRGC's funding, arm the protesters if needed, or at least label the regime's thugs as terrorists without hedging. But no, that might require actual courage, and Brussels has none to spare."

Hen Mazzig on X - "It took 15 days + hundreds of Iranian deaths for UN chief António Guterres to make a statement about the protests. It took 1 day for him to publicly mourn Iran’s former president after a helicopter crash. We know where Guterres stands. It’s clearly not with the Iranian people."

Stephen R. C. Hicks on X - "Correction: AK did not say this, though he did set the stage for it:
* He did issue a fatwa authorizing mass executions.
* Some of his followers asked about women, particularly those who were virgins: Should they too be executed? The question arose because in some rulings in Islamic tradition exceptions were made for apostate women and virgins who were candidates for execution.
* So AK modified the mass-executions fatwa, reportedly saying something like “Virgins are not to be executed.”
* His more execution-enthusiastic followers found a loophole. They would marry the women, have sex with them, and then execute them."

The security architecture that Obama admin attempted to build in Middle East was based on creating parity between Suuni and Shia blocs in order that Americans could pull out of the region. This plan was based on many delusional assumptions and required the normalization of the ayatollah regime - what is happening now is not what they wanted to say the least"

Nicole Lampert on X - "In the last four days our Middle East Minister @HFalconerMP has tweeted or retweeted four times about Gaza - including this from a charity associated with the Muslim Brotherhood (Hamas is Muslim Brotherhood) - and there has been NOTHING about Iran. WTF is going on?"

Alexander Bard on X - "The reason why Leftists sympathize with Palestinians and ignore Iranians is because the Palestinians play the victimhood card and the Iranians refuse to. And the victimhood cult is all The Left ever knew. Also, the Iranians look a lot better. The Left only likes ugly as fuck."

David Knight Legg on X - "For all the college students: this is what real anti-fascism looks like. One of the most consequential protests in a generation: Unarmed Iranian people are risking everything to fight the secret police and rid themselves of 45 years of Islamo-fascist ayatollahs and their sick reign of terror."

Dad spends 6 hours painting cross of St George on house after flag torn down - "A dad who had an England flag torn down from his garden decided to go "one better" and paint a giant St George's cross on the front of his HOUSE.  Simon Brocklehurst, 41, was left fuming when his flag was ripped down from his front garden in Sutton-in-Ashfield, Notts... "I had a flag flying on a pole but these people came along and ripped it down from my garden.  "They were accusing me of being racist, which I'm really not, I've just always been proud of my country.  "I had a St George's cross flying years ago but the council told me to remove it in case it offended somebody, it's just not right... "On social media I seem to be getting a lot of hate and abuse for it but in real-life most people seem to love it.  "Cars go past honking their horns and giving me a thumbs up. People are saying 'good on you' and respond really well.  "But some English people calling me disgusting, I wouldn't be surprised if I get a brick through the window or something. "It's mainly on Facebook where I seem to be getting stick for it - but everyone is entitled to their opinions.  "That is what the flag represents, without this flag you wouldn't have freedom of speech, so I respect their right to say what they want about it.  "But we shouldn't be treated like criminals just for flying our flag, over in the USA they do so with pride."

Wiltshire pub featured in Reform video ordered to paint over St George’s Cross - "A Lib Dem council demanded a pub remove its St George’s Cross painted on its white exterior an hour after it was featured in a Reform UK promotional video.  Jerry Kunkler, the landlord of Moonrakers Inn in Pewsey, Wiltshire, since 1981 and the county’s longest-serving councillor, painted the current cross on the pub for the World Cup in 2022... Mr Kruger has criticised the council’s decision, emphasising that the cross “isn’t a political thing”, but that it is “an English pub in an English town with an England flag”.  The email from Steven Jenkins, the council’s planning enforcement officer, said: “It has been brought to my attention that you have undertaken some unauthorised works to your property without first obtaining listed building consent."

Reform UK: Schoolchildren told Reform is 'extremist' and St George’s flag is 'far-right exclusionary symbol' - "Schoolchildren have been told that Reform UK's policies are similar to fascism, leaked lesson material has revealed.  Teaching material shown to pupils at academies operated by Orion Education, which runs eight schools across London and Kent, placed Reform UK's logo at the “fascism” end of the spectrum, just short of the British National Party and Nazi flag.  The teaching material also claimed Reform UK supporters include people who hold "extremist views".  Meanwhile, the Conservative Party and Labour Party were denoted as "mainstream", with the Green Party being described as holding concerns about the environment alongside other left-wing views. Another PowerPoint slide focusing on "extremism" pictured Reform UK's deputy leader Richard Tice... The presentation, which was delivered to Year 10 pupils as young as 14, also dedicated a section of text to the flag of St George.  The learning material highlighted how England's national flag has been criticised as a “provocative and exclusionary symbol used by far-right groups”...  “Left-wing teachers are breaching their employment contracts by imposing their deep socialist political bias on children.  “They should be neutral in helping students learn all sides of politics.  "It is notable that no reference was made to Antifa, nor violent extremism from the far-left.  “I am appalled but not surprised by this bias from a primarily Left-wing academic community.”"

David Lammy has unintentionally performed a national service and it will cost Labour dearly - "One of David Lammy’s earliest symbolic acts as Foreign Secretary wasn’t to stabilise Britain’s standing, reassure allies, or confront the crises piling up on his desk. No — his priority was far more revealing. He marched into the Foreign Office and had the beloved late Queen Elizabeth ripped off the wall, only to be replaced by Pan-African flags. It was the most honest thing a Labour minister has done since taking power.  Politics is full of petty gestures masquerading as statesmanship, but Lammy’s symbolic purge stands out for its clarity. This wasn’t décor. It wasn’t a harmless personal preference. It was a doctrinal announcement:  Lammy didn’t merely remove a portrait. He tried to evict the single most beloved figure in modern British history from the very institution she dignified for seventy years. The gesture tells the world everything it needs to know about who is now running British foreign policy. Labour suffers a reflexive cringe at the sight of British greatness. It embarrasses them. Tradition, continuity, monarchy, sovereignty — these things are an itchy wool jumper the party cannot bear to put on. And the late monarch embodied those virtues with an effortlessness that made generations of politicians look small. Queen Elizabeth represented service without ego, duty without theatrics, national identity without politics. She unified Britain effortlessly. Which is precisely why Labour’s ideologues resent her. She proved that patriotism does not need Establishment permission to exist. She eclipsed the Establishment. Lammy’s decision to remove her portrait didn’t emerge from nowhere. It’s the natural instinct of a party that would prefer a Britain constantly apologising for itself, perpetually edited and re-edited to match the sensibilities of the modern progressive imagination.  If Labour needed a face for its ongoing identity crisis, it has found it in David Lammy. His public persona has always depended on positioning Britain as a nation that must continually atone — a country defined more by alleged sins than by unmatched achievements.  He speaks the language of “reckoning”, “accountability”, and “historic responsibility”, yet rarely manages a sentence celebrating Britain’s extraordinary role in global history. He approaches national pride as if it were a toxic substance requiring gloves and tongs... Here in the USA, we have seen this movie before, and let me tell you: it doesn’t end well.  When Barack Obama first entered the Oval Office, he promptly removed the bust of Winston Churchill. When questioned, he hid behind diplomatic niceties, but everyone knew what was happening. A President steeped in progressive ideology could not abide a symbol of Anglo-American exceptionalism staring at him from across the room... Progressive governments — whether in Washington or London — cannot stand symbols that remind nations of who they were before the professional activist class seized cultural power... This is the same Labour Party that preaches endlessly about “restoring trust in institutions” and “respecting public life”. Yet its leading diplomat cannot even show respect for the one institution that consistently earned it.  Labour’s reverence is selective; their patriotism conditional; their respect manufactured. They treat the monarchy the way a schoolchild treats homework: tolerable only when forced, resented at all other times. What Lammy has done may look trivial. It is anything but. Great nations do not fall because of arguments about paintings. They fall because their elites become ashamed of their inheritance...  they remove the portrait and hope no one notices the deeper message: Your past is obsolete. Your heritage is embarrassing. Look away.  Once a country begins erasing the symbols that anchor its identity, decline accelerates quickly. We learned that the hard way, until Trump brought national pride roaring back. Britain must follow this lead."
If you talk about dual loyalty, you're racist

Poppy sellers called racist while raising flags for Remembrance Day in Wales - "Paul Galsworthy, an ex-Navy diver, and Patrick Stanton, a former Able Seaman, said they had been working together to raise the flags and place poppies in Penarth town centre when they suffered the abuse... The ex-Navy officers raised “Lest we forget” flags, the White Ensign and flags for the Army and Royal Air Force, alongside Union flags and the Welsh flag. They also hung poppies on lamp-posts.  However, the alleged abuse continued, Mr Galsworthy said, adding: “He wouldn’t have it and then he said, ‘We won it, we won in Caerphilly’.” The man’s comment came after Plaid Cymru claimed victory over Reform UK in a Welsh Parliament by-election."

Ethnic minorities ‘now view England flag as a racist symbol’ - "the majority of ethnic minority adults – 52 per cent – believe the St George’s flag has become a racist symbol, YouGov polling taken in October has shown... the majority of 2024 Labour voters – 58 per cent – believed the England flag had become a racist symbol, while just 19 per cent of Tory voters and 8 per cent of Reform voters said the same. Lee Anderson, Reform’s chief whip, said: “You’re more likely to see a Labour member fly the flag of Palestine than a St George’s flag. That tells you all you need to know.”   Health leaders added to the row when they said the flags created “no-go zones” for NHS staff, claiming employees faced frequent abuse.  Staff felt intimidated by the presence of the flags across the country, including when they were visiting people in their own homes to give them treatment, according to several NHS trust chief executives and leaders.  One trust leader told The Telegraph that staff felt “deliberately intimidated” when St George’s flags went up over the summer."
How long till flying the English flag becomes a hate crime?
It's telling that Labour voters hate their country more than ethnic minorities

Free speech in the UK is dead. It’ll take a constitutional revolution to restore it - "Free speech is dead in the United Kingdom.  A widening wation of this fact is driving a deepening British domestic political crisis. The Labour Government, barely a year old, is the most unpopular in modern history.  Reform, a newly founded, upstart party with just four MPs, is leading in the polls. The public has, for some time, sensed that the state has gone too far, using police armed with submachine guns, not to protect the innocent from the dangerous, but to protect ideological sacred cows from inconvenient ideas.  Story after story in the media proves that, in the UK, whether a controversial idea can be expressed safely depends not on the content of the speech but the whims of a law enforcer. Parents have been arrested for complaining about school governance in WhatsApp groups. A protester has been convicted after silently praying in public.  Hamit Coskun, a Turkish man, was recently fined after he burnt a Koran. In Scotland, new hate crime laws criminalise private conversations in the home. The UK’s Online Safety Act even dares to reach across the Atlantic, with its extraterritoriality provisions promising to punish American citizens with fines or arrest for exercising their constitutional rights."

Palak paneer: Indian couple win $200,000 settlement over 'food racism' at US university - "A dispute that began over heating a dish in a microwave has ended with two Indian students winning a $200,000 settlement from a US university. Aditya Prakash and his fiancee, Urmi Bhattacheryya, told the BBC they filed a civil rights lawsuit against the University of Colorado, Boulder, after they faced a series of "microaggressions and retaliatory actions" following the microwave incident. The harassment began, the lawsuit alleged, after a university staff member objected to Prakash heating up his lunch of palak paneer - one of northern India's most popular dishes, made of pureed spinach and paneer (considered an Indian equivalent of cottage cheese) - in a microwave on campus, because of the way it smelled... Prakash said for them, the point of the lawsuit was not the money. "It was about making a point - that there are consequences to discriminating against Indians for their 'Indianness'." The lawsuit has received significant media coverage in India since it was first reported last week, starting a conversation around what many have described as "food racism" in Western countries. Many Indians on social media have shared their own experiences of facing ridicule over their food habits abroad. Some have also pointed out that discrimination over food is rampant in India as well, where non-vegetarian food is banned in many schools and colleges over perceptions of it being impure or dirty. People from disadvantaged castes and north-eastern states often face bias over their food habits, with some complaining about the smell of the ingredients they use. And it's not just Indian or South Asian food - communities from Africa, Latin America and other parts of Asia have also shared their experiences of being shamed over their food habits. Prakash and Bhattacheryya claim their ordeal began in September 2023. Prakash, a PhD student in the Anthropology Department at the university, was microwaving his lunch of palak paneer when a British staff member allegedly remarked that his food was giving off a "pungent" odour and told him that there was a rule against heating foods with strong odours in that microwave. Prakash said the rule wasn't mentioned anywhere and when he later inquired about which foods were considered pungent, he was told that sandwiches were not, while curry was."
If you don't allow people to heat up fish in the microwave, is that discrimination against pescatarians?
If you ban surströmming, can Scandinavians complain about racism?

Thread by @Grummz on Thread Reader App – Thread Reader App - "DnD creators, Gygax and others, are erased and slandered at the same time. WoTC and Hasbro just released the new Players Handbook and Dungeon Master's Guide, as well at the 40th Anniversary "Making of DnD" book whose foreward slams the original creators and attempts to distance themselves. I spoke with one of the original creators, Rob Kuntz @threelinestudio , about the problem. 🧵
One of the main issues, cited Rob, the last surviving member of the OG crew, were the "DnD Historians" who write books and articles about the hobby and are left-leaning and continually slam the "problematic" creators and early books. The problem? Not once did they ever reach out or ask to interview Rob or many other original creators. Rob met Gary Gygax when he was a teenager, and joined the company soon after. He co-authored "Deities & Demigods with Jim Ward (whom I had the pleasure of playing in his recreation of the Greyhawk campaign. He is greatly missed.). Rob also assisted Gygax with the creation of the Greyhawk campaign setting. Rob was so upset by the foreward in "Making of DnD" that he posted a rebuttal on his X account. There are a few big lies in the Forward to the official WotC DnD history book:
- DnD promoted slavery.
- DnD made evil dragons female to be misogynistic.
- DnD culturally appropriated Deities and made players fight them in an act of (deliberate) disrespect.
These claims were "backed up" by DnD "historian" @BenRiggs_ in his viral thread attacking OG DnD creators, and were echo'd and amplified by others, widely spreading the lie. The first claim is largely based on the module "Slave Pits of the Undercity", but one glance at the cover shows that the players are fighting AGAINST slavers and called them "the forces of evil." But that didn't stop Ben or the Foreward from claiming that DnD was "making light" of slavery in his foaming attack thread. The claim about deliberately making Chaotic dragons "female" to be "sexist" in fact shows that the cultural insensitivity is not from the original authors, but out of pure cultural ignorance by these modern day DnD authors and "historians". Rob explained that Tiamat (the Queen of chaotic dragons) from Dieties and Demigods, which was blasted as "sexist" is actually canonically female and that there was no sexism present, it was simply accurate. Hailing from ancient Mesopotamian culture, Tiamat is also referred to in the original myths as the "primordial goddess of the ocean" representing chaos. Rob wrote the book, so he should know, but again, that did not stop DnD "historians" from completely getting it wrong and lying again. The final big lie in the DnD anniversary Foreward is that Deities and Demigods was culturally appropriating, and that players were expected to kill these Gods in some kind of insensitive and offensive manner. First of all, Cultural Appropriation is a myth, perpetuated by predominantly white authors on "behalf" of the supposed offended cultures who, in fact, have mostly no issues with this in their native countries. But Rob explained that these myths and gods were painstakingly researched, in an age before the Internet, with many trips to the library, and with great care. "Nobody was killing gods, you were supposed to be champions of the different gods. They set this up as a false narrative....You have to include HP and AC (for them) in case someone brings the battle to the God, like God vs God. Gods fought each other, they are always trying to kill each other (in myths)."
The other claims about DnD being against including women, are debunked by Rob, and Gary's own comments need to be viewed in light of the times. It was the 70's, and the media was hyping up feminism, especially radical feminism hateful towards men. They even had a big network game show at the time "Battle of the Sexes" and everyone had an opinion. While Gary was definitely against radical feminism, he was inclusive as far as DnD and his company was concerned. Rob explained: "This thing starts from a niche of a niche, wargaming. When its niche, it started with men, women were not excluded, but they didn't want to play, they excluded themselves. We were thrilled when women wanted to play." In fact, it was a challenge to get women to play: "Gary was not against women playing either. These women were not interested in little toy cannons and shooting toothpicks. They thought it was amusing that their men were playing these things. " Rob said that they were very grateful for a woman, Lee Gold, for promoting DnD in the early days and getting the attention of more female gamers: "they claim there is no women activity, but it was the Science fiction fantasy fandom and her articles were a big part of that. wargamers were only 10,000 people." Lee Gold founded and editing "Alarums and Excursions" which was one of the first amateur press associations dedicated to role-playing games and was fully supported by Gary's company, TSR. The lie told by DnD "historians" also erases the contributions of women like Lee Gold, and others who participated in, worked at TSR, and helped make DnD a success. "He hired women all over the place at TSR, even his wife worked there. Mary Dale as gamer during the playtest. 2/3 artist who did illustrations for the box set were women. One was Gygax's sister and Cookie Cory." A quick search also shows notable early DnD women such as Laura Hickman (illustrator) and Jean Wells (designer) who worked on White Plume Mountain as editor and wrote for the Sage Advice Column in Dragon Magazine.
It's clear from talking to Rob Kuntz, and playing with Jim Ward in his campaign, that early DnD was male dominated not because of exclusion, but because women simply didn't want to play these "toy games." But Rob, Gary and the other DnD creators bucked wanted women in gaming, wanted them in their sessions, and hired many of them to help promote and create the original game. The slander and lies out there are simply that, and it is intolerable that WoTC and Hasbro are deliberately spreading these lies in their official books. If you look at the current roster (some laid off already), you can see that the current creators of DnD have an agenda and false narrative that they wish to promote. Don't let them. DnD was ALWAYS inclusive, and the original creators should be applauded for their work, not memory holed."

Don’t get one!” I’m largely pro-choice, but pro-lifers think abortion is murder so obviously this won’t be convincing to them. “Your personal beliefs don’t dictate other peoples lives” except when liberals want them to. The belief in vaccine efficacy (which I share) *is a belief*, and it is one that liberals frequently want to legislate based on. Same with the *belief* in systemic discrimination as an explanation for group differences (which I don’t share), which motivates a bunch of policies that absolutely impact my life and the lives of many others They cannot comprehend that beliefs they disagree with are as sincere and heartfelt as their own beliefs.

PALESTINE CONNECTS IT ALL!
PALESTINE IS THE ISSUE THAT MAKES US REALISE EVERYTHING IS INTERCONNECTED. EVERY STRUGGLE FOR JUSTICE, FREEDOM, AND LIBERATION. ALL CONECTED. FROM PALESTINE, TO CONGO, TO SUDAN."

In other words: The issue is never the issue. The issue is always the revolution.

Protests Go Beyond Immigration to Include Array of Left-Wing Causes - The New York Times

"Voices at the demonstrations are often a mix that includes calls for more explicit support for racial justice, Palestinian freedom and socialist politics...

The scene encapsulated how the left’s decades-long embrace of intersectionality — the concept that all oppressed people are linked — gives the protest movement large numbers of supporters but also can create a cacophony of messages...

In New York City, protests have coalesced outside the federal immigration headquarters in Lower Manhattan this week. But they have typically morphed into a stew of left-wing causes, with Palestinian calls for liberation and Occupy Wall Street chants overtaking the group’s message against deportations."

Donald Trump For President | Facebook - "🚨 “THEY’RE LEADING THEM HOME”: ICE Agents Outsmart Minneapolis Agitators 🚨
In a hilarious twist of "The Hunter Becomes the Hunted," reports are surfacing that ICE agents in Minneapolis have found a genius way to deal with the radical "whistle armies" following their vehicles. According to a real 911 call placed on Friday, January 16, 2026, the very people trying to harass federal agents are now panicking because those agents are reportedly leading the agitators right back to their own front doors. The "911" Panic Attack. The call, reportedly placed by a Civilian Commissioner for Police Oversight in Minneapolis, reveals a total meltdown within the anti-ICE leadership. Here is the full quote from the dispatch log:
"CALLER IS A CIVILIAN COMMISSIONER FOR POLICE OVERSIGHT IN MINNEAPOLIS ---- HAS BEEN RECEIVING INFO FROM SEVERAL PPL WHO HAVE BEEN RECORDING ICE AGENTS THAT WHEN THEY FOLLOW AGENTS THE AGENTS ARE LEADING THE FOLLOWERS TO THEIR PERSONAL HOMES....CLR BELIEVES FEDERAL AGENTS ARE RUNNING PLATES TO GATHER ADDRESSES (POSS NCIC MISUSE) AND FOLLOWERS ARE CONCERNED FOR THEIR OWN WELL BEING.....CLR HAS HOPES THAT MPD COULD RESPOND TO THE HOMES OF THE FOLLOWERS AS A DETERRENT AND TO SHOW SUPPORT TO THE COMMUNITY MEMBERS....CLR ADVD INFO WOULD BE GIVEN TO CAR 92 (S01 TOLD CLR THAT SOMEONE WOULD FOLLOW UP WITH HIM VIA PH TO ADV ON THE MATTER OR TO PROVIDE THEM WITH A NUMBER ON WHO TO SPEAK WITH REL TO THIS CONCERN/REQUEST)"
The Ultimate Reverse-Card. The commissioner alleges that agents are running plates to gather addresses—using the same high-tech tools like the ELITE app that the Left has been "melting down" over all week. For days, these agitators have used "Google Maps for Deportations" as a talking point to claim they are being "targeted". Now, they are discovering that if you follow a federal agent, they might just decide to show you they know exactly where you live. These are the same people who follow agents for hours, honking and harassing them, but the moment the "surveillance" turns back on them, they call 911 begging for Minneapolis Police protection."
If true, this is hilarious

There are laws (decades old) making crossing our borders without permission an illegal act.
Those laws were duly passed through Congress, signed by a president, and some laws have even been challenged in the judicial system and clarified (like which entity has the duty to formulate, execute, and enforce these laws).
No, a state may neither make their own immigration laws nor decide how the existing federal laws are enforced.
Yes, ICE has police powers. They come from the Immigration and Nationality Act (especially 8 U.S.C. § 1357).
ICE may arrest and detain a removable alien in public without a judicial warrant if the officer has probable cause to believe the person is in the U.S. illegally, and there’s a risk the person will escape before a warrant can be obtained.
ICE commonly uses administrative warrants rather than court-signed warrants for immigration arrests/detentions. These are issued internally by ICE or by an immigration judge, not a neutral magistrate, and allow ICE to take custody of someone for immigration proceedings.
While ICE may not enter a private space without consent or a judicial warrant, if they are invited in or suspect immediate threat, they can legally gain entrance.
No, ICE does not decide what laws to enforce. ICE enforces immigration law as defined by Congress — including arrest, detention, questioning, and removal of non-citizens.
No, calling illegal aliens “neighbors” or “Maryland Men” does not make them legal.
No, it doesn’t matter if an alien was let in, overstayed a visa, ignored deportation orders or simply was ignored.
No, it doesn’t matter how long they have been here. There is no automatic citizenship for evading capture for 10, 20 or 30 years.
No, it doesn’t matter if they have a job.
No, it doesn’t matter if they are 8 or 80. Age is not a disqualifier.
It doesn’t matter if they have a family because they can choose their dependents who were born here who will stay with a designated legal guardian or go with the deportees back to their home country.
No, citizens of another country do not have a right to come to America.
All the above are, or should be, well known to our elected officials and yet, some of these very officials are the ones using irresponsible and false rhetoric to enrage the mentally stunted emotional raw nerves who think they are manning the front lines of a new Civil War. Here’s is short list from just the past ten days or so...
It is due to statements and sentiments like these that ICE faces sufficient force that they must use equal or superior force in arrests and to block interference. It is Newton’s Third Law applied to law enforcement: every action is met by an equal and opposite reaction. So much of the “reporting” and discourse—especially when elected officials state accusations as fact when they are not or are not proven—serves only to inflame the minds of emotionally retarded people in opposition to legitimate and legal actions taken to remedy “the problem.”"

When Reason Dies - "no issue—large or small—is being approached through truth or reason anymore. Everything is filtered through raw emotion. We are watching a full-scale renunciation of reason by a significant portion of the population, including its political leadership. Worse still, much of that leadership is doing this by design. This did not happen by accident. A good deal of it traces back to intellectual arsonists who taught generations of students that language itself is a weapon and truth is merely a social construct. Jacques Derrida and his descendants may not have intended to light the house on fire, but they handed out plenty of matches. Once language is severed from reality, everything becomes negotiable. Illegal aliens become “our neighbors,” “our people,” “migrants,” or “undocumented persons”—terms that feel good while erasing the fact that these individuals are, by definition, in the country illegally. ICE is accused of “snatching people off the street who committed no crimes,” when in reality it is executing legally mandated removals of people whose very presence constitutes a violation of law—whether by illegal entry or visa overstay. Families are said to be “ripped apart,” yet no similar outrage is expressed when an American citizen is sentenced to prison and separated from his family as a consequence of criminal behavior. Emotion is selectively deployed, not consistently applied. I said recently that Minnesota has become the epicenter of the most successful brainwashing operation since Hitler consolidated power in Germany. If that sounded excessive a week ago, the intervening days should have erased any doubt. This is not fringe behavior. It runs from the top of the DFL straight down through the voters who keep rewarding it. Democrats are fond of calling Republicans Nazis, but the people who enabled Hitler were not jackbooted monsters—they were ordinary citizens who swallowed propaganda wholesale. The resemblance is uncomfortable, and it is real. So much of what the modern left believes—what it wants to believe—is simply false. What Democrats have assembled is a sprawling coalition of emotional raw nerves: criminal misfits, social outcasts, anarchists, militant racialists, and ideological zealots, united under slogans like the future is female, no human is illegal on stolen land, love is love, science is real, and kindness is everything. These phrases are not arguments. They are emotional incantations. And when you build politics on incantation rather than reason, you summon forces you cannot control. It is not coincidental that a large share of the most emotionally unhinged activism comes from women (both heterosexual and lesbian), the mentally unstable, gender ideologues, and self-styled social misfits—often reinforced by estrogen-soaked beta males and overwhelmingly white participants intoxicated by a white-savior complex. This is not so much a color revolution as a pasty white temper tantrum, driven by feminized rage and the belief that performative vulgarity is a substitute for toughness or courage. None of this should be surprising. These people are being carefully herded toward statism and collectivism—ideologies that tell them they are not responsible for their failures, that someone else is to blame: another race, another sex, another class, another country. They are told that how they feel about reality matters more than what reality is. Laws, morality, and even biology itself can be discarded if they produce discomfort. To be clear, this does not mean that all women, or all members of any of these groups, are irrational collectivists. But this pathology is overwhelmingly concentrated on the American left, whose intelligentsia has learned how to distill the population down to its most volatile components and deploy them as political shock troops. “If you believe it, it’s not a lie” is not a foundation for civilization. It was a joke delivered by George Costanza—a line meant to illustrate absurdity, not to serve as a governing principle. A society that abandons reason does not become compassionate or enlightened. It becomes ungovernable."

Federal agent shoots man in leg after Minneapolis shovel attack, officials say - "City police chief Brian O'Hara said his officers were hit by fireworks, ice and snowballs... "While the subject and law enforcement were in a struggle on the ground, two subjects came out of a nearby apartment and also attacked the law enforcement officer with a snow shovel and broom handle. "As the officer was being ambushed and attacked by the two individuals, the original subject got loose and began striking the officer with a shovel or broom stick.""
Damn fascism, shooting peaceful protesters!

Why is ICE in MN if it has <1% of illegal immigrants in the USA? FL & TX make up 26% : r/stupidquestions - "They’ve been hard at work in Texas and Florida, don’t worry.

You just don’t hear about it so much because there’s a lot more cooperation in those states, but they absolutely have had the most deportations"
This doesn't stop left wingers claiming that MAGATs don't care about facts. Every left wing accusation is a projection

LizzieZ @LizzieZ2024: "We are tired of going to the store and no one speaks English, no one even wears the normal clothes Americans wear, and everyone smells weird. It's like walking into a third world sh*t hole where the residendents have no concept of personal space and they all want to occupy the same space you occupy no matter where you stand. We are tired of going to the Hospital, and having to wait for hours due to the place being full of people speaking something other than English, coughing all over the place. Then finally getting to see a doctor whose English is so bad we have no idea what's he's said. We're tired of our children being pushed aside in classrooms so that teachers can spend ridiculous amounts of time teaching low IQ children English, while our children do mindless busy work alone. We're tired of hearing Americans in need being turned down for temporary help using resources from the tax money we fund while savages from third world hell holes rob us blind of those same resources. Get all the bastards out! Yesterday!"

Left wingers desperately lying to manifest reality again

Wilfred Reilly on X - "So, Schermer - a guy with very solid quantitative skills - actually fed a specifically designed prompt into an AI and obtained a figure for what percentage of ICE detainees are properly arrested illegal aliens (as vs wrongfully seized citizens, etc). That figure? 99.8% to 99.95%. No system is perfect, but the real cause of all this noise is that the modern left opposes aliens being deported at all. Just say that."

Total NIMBY Death on X - "The NYTimes admits: The danger associated with deportations is mostly a result of blue state policies that prevent law enforcement from transferring criminal illegals to ICE custody, as a result ICE has to make "community arrests" which put citizens and legal immigrants at risk"

Meme - mahoneyconsorte: "How did Obama successfully remove 3 million non citizens humanely???? No ICE, no violence, no fanfare????? Asking for a friend,"
chino_rok: "Well, as someone who worked during that administration, it's simple. All the "sanctuary cities" including mine cooperated fully with ICE and Homeland. They gave lists of all the undocumented kids my agency had and then ICE came and got them. So this, in fact, is politicians' fault cause they pick and choose who they want to cooperate with and make things worse."

Old School Eddie on X - "Back in April 2000, under President Bill Clinton, federal agents stormed a home in Miami with guns drawn to seize six-year-old Elián González. They sent the boy back to Fidel Castro’s communist Cuba, all in the name of diplomacy and following the rules. In November 2014, President Obama said plainly that undocumented immigrants broke our immigration laws and must be held accountable, especially the dangerous ones. And in June 2009, Senator Chuck Schumer stated firmly that people who enter the United States illegally are “illegal aliens” and should not be treated the same as those who come here legally. These examples show how Democratic leaders once spoke plainly about enforcing our borders and laws, before their politics changed from focusing on America to everything but America."

MAZE on X - "October, 2010. Obama's Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano announces the administration's record breaking immigration enforcement statistics for fiscal year 2010. ICE had deported almost 400,000 illegal aliens during fiscal year 2010, the majority of which had no criminal record. Napolitano also touted the administration's efforts to secure the border. At the end of this press conference Napolitano was asked if ICE was deferring action on deportations for any groups of people. She mentioned two groups, family members of active duty military and Haitian orphans. She then closed with this: "This department is about enforcing the law that we have." To put in perspective how far left (and how quickly) the Democrat party has moved on immigration, consider the following:
In 2019 many Democrat candidates for President came out in favor of decriminalizing crossing our border illegally.
In 2020 Joe Biden was promising to halt all deportations if he became President.
In 2021 the Biden Admin effectively opened our border.
ICE agents are now demonized by Democrat politicians and regularly attacked for simply trying to do their jobs."

Adam Jentleson on X - "I can’t emphasize enough that even as Trump’s numbers dive and ICE approval falls voters still trust Republicans on immigration and border security by WIDE margins. They just don’t think Dems take enforcement seriously."

Dr. Ben Braddock on X - "Border turnaways are not “deportations” as people understand that term. Actual deportations are internal arrests and removal, which are higher than at any point in recent history, a fact that is even more impressive when you consider that ICE funding wasn’t expanded until July."

Janet Elaine Parks | Facebook - "🇺🇸🚨 TRUTH CHECK: The Police Chief Said the Quiet Part Out Loud… And History Has Shown Us Real Parallels… While the internet tries to compare ICE enforcement to Anne Frank and the Holocaust…🙄 they ignore the real parallels happening right now:
Local leaders stirring resistance
Crowds escalating
Law enforcement becoming the enemy
Let’s start with what Minneapolis Police Chief Brian O’Hara said …because this matters:
“They are engaging in unlawful acts.”
“They have thrown fireworks at police officers.”
And he urged people to go home ..because there’s already enough chaos happening.. That is not “peaceful protest.” That’s the Police Chief describing active violence…
✅ THE CITY’S OWN DOCUMENTATION CONFIRMS IT The City of Minneapolis documented:
• MPD declared an unlawful assembly
• multiple dispersal orders
• individuals were detained / cited / released
• and warned protesters they cannot throw objects, start fires, damage property, or use fireworks/weapons
Source: City of Minneapolis (official protest update)
So no ..this isn’t “made up.” It’s the city’s own words. And for the first time in a while… it feels like someone in Minnesota leadership actually gets it.
✅ WHAT MAYOR FREY SAID ON CAMERA (AND THIS IS WHY IT’S DANGEROUS) Mayor Jacob Frey publicly told ICE: 🗣️ “To ICE, get the f out of Minneapolis. We do not want you here.”* Source: CNN; WCCO CBS Minnesota And he called the federal narrative that the shooting was self-defense: 🗣️ “bulls.”* Source: CNN; WCCO CBS Minnesota Let’s stop pretending this is “neutral leadership.” That’s aggressive, inflammatory rhetoric aimed at federal law enforcement. And rhetoric has consequences.
🚨 THE REAL PARALLELS PEOPLE SHOULD BE TALKING ABOUT… We’ve seen this pattern in American history: When leaders encourage “resistance” to federal law, it doesn’t stay symbolic… It escalates.
📌 PARALLEL #1 — Nullification Crisis (1832–1833) South Carolina declared federal laws “invalid” and resisted enforcement. President Andrew Jackson treated it as a direct threat to national authority and made clear the federal government would enforce the law. That’s how national confrontations begin: when leadership normalizes defiance
📌 PARALLEL #2 — Little Rock (1957) Arkansas leadership defied federal authority. The streets turned hostile. And President Eisenhower ultimately sent federal troops to enforce order. When local government refuses to cooperate and the public turns violent… the federal government intervenes.
✅ THE FBI REWARD TELLS YOU THIS IS SERIOUS The FBI issued a $100,000 reward related to attacks/vandalism involving federal vehicles and stolen federal property during the unrest. Source: New York Post You don’t issue a federal reward like that over “nothing.” ✅ AND YES …THE PAPERWORK FOUND IS A BIG DEAL.. There has been reporting and viral footage showing paperwork described on camera as containing sensitive operational material and identifying details tied to federal enforcement. Source: New York Post; AP News (contextual reporting on protests/tactics) If protesters are looting federal vehicles and exposing information tied to agents… that is escalation. And it puts real families at risk.
🚨 BOTTOM LINE This is how crises start. Not with a “Civil War” headline… but with leadership normalizing defiance, crowds escalating, and law enforcement being treated like the enemy. When the Police Chief is telling you protesters are committing unlawful acts… and city leadership is still posturing like it’s just activism… That’s not leadership. That’s gasoline on a fire. Faith. Family. Freedom. 🇺🇸✝️"
