Is this some sort of elaborate “globalist elite” joke? Are Bush and Obama secretly the same person?
Tune in next time on As the World Turns….
Nah.
This is just a perfect example of 1. Clown world in action and 2. One of these things is not like the others.
Sometimes I really do wonder if we’re in the end of history.

It’s funny, in that #NOCOINCIDENCES kind of way, how conspiracy theories from different parts of the internet are starting to collide.
From the Chans, there’s all the evidence of a child trafficking and money laundering ring based out of Haiti.
From the Hollywood blind item camp, there are the rumors that all your favorite celebrities are involved in shady business, everything from snorting coke to murder with a stop through for…wait for it…child trafficking and money laundering rings that just happen to run through Haiti.
Think they might have something to do with each other?
I remember sometime in the last 18 months, I forget when exactly, when yet another story broke about Human Abedin and Anthony Wiener. There was a video circulating on Twitter of somebody shouting uncomfortable questions as she ducked into a townhouse. The person holding the door for her was Anna Wintour.
It’s always been obvious that Anna Wintour is a shill for the democrats, especially democrats named Hillary Clinton. Stories about Hillary abound in Vogue-related publications (she’s on the cover of a special issue of Teen Vogue at the moment), and
(Fun fact: before she was picked for McCain’s running mate, I first heard of Sarah Palin through a story in Vogue on women politicians, and couldn’t believe my eyes that a republican governor had been featured in a mildly positive light.)
Magazines, especially fashion magazines, have always been problematic. The promote celebrity culture and degeneracy. They foster shallow thinking. Their advertiser/funding model has turned them into catalogs for product rather than being a trusted filter for products.
I didn’t realize until recently, when I fell back into the blind-item timesink, that tabloids are basically another arm of PR for celebrities. People is the New York Times of the theater that is celebrity personal life.
You know what that makes all those “high end” magazines that put celebrities on their covers?
Complicit.
I feel so dumb for taking this long to figure it out. It’s long been known that celebrities end up on magazine covers when they have something to promote, but I never connected the dots that what they have to say in those articles is promoting an agenda (mostly their own image and fame) just as much as its promoting their product.
Some of them are sincere, I’m sure. Others, not so much. The craft a public image that fits some sort of narrative, and then do despicable things behind the scenes.
At this point, with the amount of people that “knew” about people like Wienstein and Lauer and who did absolutely nothing about it for years, I have a hard time believing that someone like Anna Wintour knows nothing, who is close enough with Human Abedin that Huma appeared hiding from the media at her house.
I banned myself from buying magazines on the regular sometime around 2012. They weren’t providing enough ROI in my life.
I’m glad I did, though, because I don’t want to support the type of people who lie (excuse me, “do PR”) and provide cover for the horrible people of this world.
I still read some fashion blogs–I like the content. As much as I pretend I’m not sometimes, I’m still a girl who likes reading about girly things and who likes to fantasize about impractical fashion from time to time.
We need a ladies’ magazine for the MAGA agenda.
At this point, I’m pretty sure everyone younger than Gen X who is on the internet knows Dragon Ball Z.
Even if you don’t know anything about Dragon Ball Z, trust me, you know about Dragon Ball Z.
Just try to look at this picture and not think “SUPER SAIYAN TRUMP.”
I mean, the photoshop helps a lot. But you know what I mean.
Trump Derangement Syndrome means never having to look too hard for a meme.
Do they really not realize that this type of thing just gives him more power? The more that the hair is exalted, the more power he gets.
Maybe not physical power, but memetic power.
I really need to write that post on Donald Trump’s hair.
There’s not much to say, other than I’d like to add my small voice to the meme magic that is still behind GEOTUS Trump the Very Stable Genius.
I appreciate all he has done for our country and all he will do, and all his associates are doing.
The Storm is coming. It’s like Christmas but we don’t know when.
I’m praying for wisdom and safety for all involved.
Also I just love this picture.
No coincidences.
The Atlanta airport was shut down on Sunday. Trump issued an executive order going after human traffickers. Eric Schmidt resigned from Alphabet.
And last Monday, the New Media Consortium sent out this sudden email:
The New Media Consortium (NMC) regrets to announce that because of apparent errors and omissions by its former Controller and Chief Financial Officer, the organization finds itself insolvent. Consequently, NMC must cease operations immediately.
NMC would like to sincerely thank our loyal and dedicated community for its many vital contributions since its inception in 1994. NMC is grateful to its current executive director and NMC staff for their tireless efforts to connect people at the intersection of innovation and technology.
NMC will be promptly commencing a chapter 7 bankruptcy case. A trustee will be appointed by the court to wind down NMC’s financial affairs, liquidate its assets and distribute any net proceeds to creditors. The case will be filed in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Eastern District of California.
To be honest I don’t know anything about the NMC, but the timing and abruptness of this announcement is more than slightly suspicious.
A look through the NMC website shows that there are globalist-NGO affiliated people on its board of directors, and it’s affiliated with several globalist NGOs–the website of one which has a game promoting Soros’ Orange Revolution in the Ukraine.
It’s not surprising that an academically-oriented media entity would also be in love with the globalist myth, nor would it be surprising that an entity like this would be mismanaged, but to have see it abruptly closed down the day after rumors of Soros’ arrest start floating around….
Let’s be clear: I don’t know anything. I just don’t want to forget this.
What a time to be alive.
One of the words that I’ve learned to hate during my time in higher education is the word “evidence-based.”
It’s basically a flag for intellectual-yet-idiot modern shortsighted rootless science, for values of “evidence” that mean only peer-reviewed scientific studies published under governmental agency oversight after 1900.
Thousands of years of folk medicine? Nah.
Hundreds of similar personal anecdotes? Nope.
Logic applied to physiology? Not possible.
“Evidence-based” medicine will probably help you in the short term, but it’s likely to mess you up in the long term.
It’s a fallacy that we can know everything about a natural system and control all inputs and outputs with no unintended consequences.
That’s why I love that “evidence-based” is one of the words banned from the CDC’s budget proposal this year.
Policy analysts at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in Atlanta were told of the list of forbidden words at a meeting Thursday with senior CDC officials who oversee the budget, according to an analyst who took part in the 90-minute briefing. The forbidden words are: “vulnerable,” “entitlement,” “diversity,” “transgender,” “fetus,” “evidence-based” and “science-based.”
In some instances, the analysts were given alternative phrases. Instead of “science-based” or “evidence-based,” the suggested phrase is “CDC bases its recommendations on science in consideration with community standards and wishes,” the person said. In other cases, no replacement words were immediately offered. […]
The ban is related to the budget and supporting materials that are to be given to CDC’s partners and to Congress, the analyst said. The president’s budget for 2019 is expected to be released in early February. The budget blueprint is generally shaped to reflect an administration’s priorities.
It’s only the budget, so it helps set the direction for what the priorities of the CDC are. I also find it interesting that the concept of “evidence-based” is not banned, just the phrase.
As we’re rounding out the first year of the Trump presidency, it’s heartening to see some good changes roll out to ancillary institutions.
Still gotta build that wall, tho.
This doesn’t appear to be fake news, but you never know.
Apparently a water fountain backed up at the EPA today which started spewing sewage into the hallway.
The deep state has infiltrated farther that we thought.
Time for the ultimate in MAGA self reflection: border wall personality test.
thx, r/The_Donald
That’s kind of a trick question, though, because there is already a personality test built into the concept of the wall from the very beginning.
There are three types of reactions:
If you’re a sane person, avoid #3 at all costs.
#2 is a dying breed, probably personified by Dave Rubin of The Rubin Report. At best, a Classical Liberal. At worst, a Moderate.
Most of us MAGAers were convinced pretty early of the rhetorical and practical utility of the wall, so #1 is pretty much a battle cry for us. See also: Ann Coulter.
Trump’s was such a polarizing election, it felt like picking teams for something bigger. Starting from about the debut of pizzagate in late September 2016, things got a whole lot more Real and the split between upside-down world and rightside-up world felt, for the first time, like a physical thing.
There are still a few people caught in the middle, but not very many.
If you’re still deciding, vote for The Tease wall design, because it is clearly the trolliest. And if our big beautiful metaphor can’t have at least a little troll in it..
why bother?
As part of research for a project I’m working on, I went on Tumblr this afternoon.
(I haven’t been on Tumblr in ages. Tumblr is an SJW wasteland.)
And in Tumblr, I searched “alt-right.”
The results came back as pretty much what I would have expected. Lots of BLM posts, “punch Nazi” cartoons, and long impassioned rants about feelings. There are a few nationalist and traditionalist blogs on there, intrepid souls, which was a bit surprising and very uplifting. I got lost in Wrath of Gnon for a while.
Not a lot of nuance, especially with those related search terms: nazis, racism, white nationalism.
It was interesting watching my own emotional reaction to things as I scrolled through the post. Most it skewed toward “SOMEONE IS WRONG ON THE INTERNET,” related to the lack of nuance.
I’m of the school of thought that the alt-right is a big umbrella, with sub-groups underneath; the white nationalists/Nazi larpers are just one cluster of thought. There are others: traditionalists/Western Civilizationalists, omni-nationalists, and if you squint, the New Right and Proud Boy types.
The New Right and Proud Boys work hard to distance themselves from the alt-right, but that is because the left — with its total lack of nuance or care — has defined the alt-right as entirely neo-Nazi. Or perhaps that is Richard Spencer’s huge ego eclipsing everything and trying to bend all media coverage to itself.
In my opinion, the Spencerites play right into the left’s hand by accepting the idea of “white” identity. There is no white identity. It is an artificial bucket created in opposition to the “black” identity. To give any legitimacy to that false construct is a huge mistake. It lets the left dictate the frame of the argument.
Not that the left cares. They’re delighted, I’m sure, to have ready-made villains for their political theater.
What I have to learn is this: that trying to earnestly explain to people that not all of the alt-right is like that is not a helpful thing to do, and in fact will disperse my voice into the noisy background of pixels and bits on the internet. There may be a time for a dialectical discussion, but some random project on the internet is not it.
I need to focus on rhetoric, and hone rhetorical strategies that will dovetail with Tumblr themes but also hone in on chinks in the SJW armor.
I’m being vague about my project for now, because it’s still in the beginning stages, but I look forward to debuting it when the time is right.
Let’s just say I rediscovered Hugo-nominated author Chuck Tingle today as well. Delightful.
Stay nimble, my friends.
