Yet another Leftist Malady Whiny Vegan Syndrome
Vanessa Hensley and her partner Aaron Saini visited their local branch on Saturday for a takeaway treat but, as Devon Live reports, staff told them there were no vegan or vegetarian options available.
Vanessa, who is pescatarian, had hoped to enjoy the vegetarian burger or veggie ricebox but she and Aaron decided to leave and have fish and chips instead.
The experience left Vanessa, of Exeter, “angry” and “upset”.
Entitlement, entitlement folks. Every restaurant must cater to her tastes. Good Freaking Grief!
Observe Perpetual Bitterness Syndrome
After Drake University Associate English Professor Beth Younger proclaimed her “hatred” for Republicans on social media, the university president addressed the controversial comments in a school-wide email on Wednesday.
Younger tweeted on October 26th, “I was just pondering how much hatred I feel towards all the Republican a**holes. They need to suffer.”
Well, she seems nice right?
On January 7, Younger also targeted Sen. Josh Hawley (R-Mo.) who led the charge on objecting to the electoral college certification, responding to his tweet with “F*** off you piece of s***.”
Younger responded to Turning Point USA founder Charlier Kirk who called Hawley a “great American” by saying “F*** off Charlie. Your party is the party of sedition. The party of lies.”
Ah yes, another open-minded Leftist
Good Freaking Grief, Racial Obsession Syndrome on steroids
I learned something new today.
For decades leading symphony orchestras have used “blind auditions” to hire musicians. That is, the musicians are not seen at all, only their music is heard. That way, implicit or explicit racial, ethnic, or gender bias cannot enter into the hiring decision, only the quality of the music. It is as close to a pure meritocracy as I can imagine.
So, this is a great thing right, judging musicians STRICTLY on musical talent? Uh, NO!
Not according to Anthony Tommasini, the chief classical music critic at the NY Times. Tommasini writes that the lack of orchestral diversity resulting from this meritocracy needs to change, and musicians should be chosen based on race, gender, and other factors.
Tommasini starts by noting the history of blind auditions in his column, To Make Orchestras More Diverse, End Blind Auditions:
During the tumultuous summer of 1969, two Black musicians accused the New York Philharmonic of discrimination. Earl Madison, a cellist, and J. Arthur Davis, a bassist, said they had been rejected for positions because of their race.
The city’s Commission on Human Rights decided against the musicians, but found that aspects of the orchestra’s hiring system, especially regarding substitute and extra players, functioned as an old boys’ network and were discriminatory. The ruling helped prod American orchestras, finally, to try and deal with the biases that had kept them overwhelmingly white and male. The Philharmonic, and many other ensembles, began to hold auditions behind a screen, so that factors like race and gender wouldn’t influence strictly musical appraisals.
Blind auditions, as they became known, proved transformative.
But, alas, merit is, well RACIST and sexist, and likely some other “ist”, so, it has to go to appease the color obsessed Go read the whole thing, and remember kids it is no longer possible to parody the left.
And, as Diogenes notes, the left has zero perspective these days.
The legendary American showman P T Barnum once famously said: “I don’t give a damn what you say about me as long as you spell my name right.” Which brings us to Tahlea Aualiitia: an alleged journalist and, it seems, attention-seeker who as a victim of our times laments “The last person I had to correct for the misspelling of my name was someone from my own employer.”
“I was invited to join a panel on representation in pop culture by the ABC News Channel earlier this month, and because the name super (the strap with my name at the bottom of the screen) was added during production, I wasn’t aware my name was spelled incorrectly until after the interview had finished and I was informed by my family and friends.
Typos happen and I understand how a slip of the finger on the keyboard turned my surname from Aualiitia into Auakiitia.”
How could she, possibly, EVER, SURVIVE such horror you ask?
“But while it was the first time I had done a TV interview, it wasn’t the first time I had seen my name spelled wrong in the media.”
Scratch that. Incoming.
“Just a month ago, my name was spelled incorrectly by a producer in my own department, the Asia Pacific Newsroom.”
Oh Dear Lord! Not the Asia Pacfic Newsroom!!!!! Oh, the humanity, BUT, out of great butt hurt rose Great Social Justice!
“I knew I had to call them out. It’s no coincidence I’m speaking up about this during the latest wave of the Black Lives Matter movement….”
“It’s hard to explain what racism feels like to someone who has never experienced it. For me, it feels like walking around with a big target hanging around my neck. You don’t know where the next attack — verbal, physical or systemic — might come from, and lived experience means you know it has to do with the colour of your skin.”
Oh SHUT UP you overgrown child
Systemic name misspelling. It’s a thing now. A racist attack. And when you’re on a public platform like national TV or social media, it feels like that target triples in size. A sense of proportion is not, I fear, Ms Aualiitia’s strong suit. We’re then informed, pointedly, that some people can be obnoxious on Twitter. Oh My!
Go read the rest no one delivers the verbal thrashings like Diogenes. And this one is so deserved
How can people on the left, on one hand be horrified at the prospect of businesses opening up during the outbreak Corona Virus, say nothing, or actually cheer mass gatherings of leftist protesters? Simple, it is another case of Consistent Inconsistentitis, a left wing disease where the victim is robbed of any consistency Observe
made a career as an environmental scientist, largely hiding my conservative views except to a few trusted friends. I knew of a few others. But this WuFlu thing really emphasizes why you never trust a leftist scientist if their science clashes with their political beliefs. Jonah Goldberg, who has largely become unreadable due a case of advance Trump Derangement Syndrome, drops it long enough to have some insight again in The Treason of Epidemiologists – They erode the public trust when they tell people to stay home from church but encourage protests for a cause with which they agree.
We spent the last couple of months being hectored by public health experts and earnestly righteous media personalities who insisted that easing lockdown policies was immoral, that refusing to social distance or wear masks was nigh upon murderous. They even suggested that protests were somehow profane. But now that the George Floyd protests are serving as some kind of Great Awokening, many of the same are saying “never mind” about all of that. Protests aren’t profane, they’re glorious and essential—if they agree with what you’re protesting about.
Ah, but you are be consistent in your ideals if you think such things.
SEE! The virus may return because of all the people protesting the existence of America, and the looting, and beating innocent people, it may kill thousands more. BUT, the Leftist narrative about “systematic racism” MUST be pushed! So, out with social distancing for protesters, rioters, looters, etc.
In short, preventing the spread of the Covid virus is important, as long as we are hurting small businesses, and the evil economy which is part of our evil capitalist society, which is based on slavery, victimization, racism, sexism, and everything bad according to Marxism. BUT, spreading the same virus in pursuit of social justice where we will all be equal, in our poverty, and enslavement to the state! SEE how easy Leftist logic is? Consistency? BAH!
Leftism destroys everything eventually. Even it’s own false narratives. BEHOLD
Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer (D), frequently mentioned as a top contender for presumptive Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden’s running mate, said Sunday that she believes Biden’s denial of a sexual assault allegation against him.
Hmmm, that is quite a departure from “believe every woman” isn’t it? We all recall the horrible treatment of then Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh after he was accused of sexual misconduct. He was BY GOD GUILTY because his accuser was “believable” and brave, and wonderful. Due process? Never heard of it! Now that a Democrat, Joe Biden, is the presumptive nominee for the Democratic Party, many of the same women who were ready to lynch (figuratively) Kavannaugh, have suddenly and conveniently recalled that due process is like really important! Believe the woman? Not so much……
“I have read a lot about this current allegation. I know Joe Biden, and I have watched his defense. And there’s not a pattern that goes into this,” Whitmer said on CNN’s “State of the Union” Sunday. “I don’t believe that it’s consistent with the Joe Biden that I know. And I do believe Joe, and I support Joe Biden.”
Tara Reade alleges that Biden pushed her against a wall and sexually assaulted her in an empty corridor while she was working in his Senate office in 1993.
Sooo, we should believe the woman and follow the evidence now?
Whitmer said she saw no contradiction between believing Biden’s denial and encouraging survivors of assault to speak up.
“Just because you’re a survivor doesn’t mean that every claim is equal,” she said. “It means we give them the ability to make their case, and the other side as well, and then to make a judgment that is informed.”
As I have said many times, Leftism is an ideology of convenience. And, one of rank partisanship. Hide and watch how Gov. Whitmer and other Democrats react the next time a Republican is accused……….
The left has driven us to nuclear grade absurdity
Yes, I know, Gura is an idiot, but that is a prerequisite for working at MSNBS. But, his idiocy is not the issue that most bothers me. It the absolute addiction the left has to being offended. I mean they are seemingly only satisfied if they are offended, aggrieved, pissed off, and foaming at the mouth angry!
Of course, they are a source of humor too. They are the low-hanging branches on the Tree of Idiocy, and yes, they get roasted, which is entertaining
David Gura is a professional tool folks do not try this at home
Years ago, I began to diagnose various maladies that afflict people on the left, among the many I have found, Selective Outrage Syndrome is perhaps the best in explaining the gross inconsistencies in how the left reacts to certain speech, crimes, etc. This morning, The Other McCain has a story that must be placed in the category of S.O.S. While feminists rail against some sexual assaults, others they just seem to ignore
These cases don’t fit the “intersectional” narrative:
Two Montgomery County Public School students — ages 20 and 19 — were recently arrested at their respective high schools, on allegations they raped different 11-year-old girls at apartments located off-campus.
Jonathan Coreas-Salamanca, 20, and Ivan Reyes Lopez, 19, are each charged with second-degree rape. Coreas-Salamanca has additional counts of sexual abuse of a minor and third-degree sexual offense.
According to law enforcement sources, police arrested Coreas-Salamanca on February 13, at Montgomery Blair High School in Silver Spring, where he is enrolled as a student. Six days later, on February 19, police arrested Lopez at Bethesda-Chevy Chase High School where he is enrolled as a student.
Coreas-Salamanca is accused of providing an 11-year-old girl with a cell phone sometime last year. He allegedly used that device to exchange explicit text messages and photographs with the girl, plus arrange sexual meetups.On Christmas Eve, the victim’s father came across the phone and was stunned to find scores of text messages describing “vaginal intercourse, fellatio, and cunnilingus.”
“[The victim’s father] described a text message where Suspect Coreas-Salamanca advised Victim A that she bit his penis the last time she performed fellatio,” court documents state. “Suspect Coreas-Salamanca’s purpose in sending the text message was to teach Victim A how to better perform fellatio.”
The victim’s father immediately called the police. Patrol officers seized the phone and submitted it to the department’s Electronic Crime Unit for forensic analysis.
Go read the rest at The Other McCain, it will anger you, especially this nugget
According to court documents, Coreas-Salamanca had been living along the 7700 block of 25th Avenue in Adelphi, Md. According to U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, the Salvadoran national is living in the U.S. illegally. The federal law enforcement agency has filed an immigration detainer with the Montgomery County Department of Correction and Rehabilitation.
Court documents state Lopez emigrated from Honduras nearly three years ago. He had been living in an apartment with his uncle along the 8800 block of Lanier Drive in Silver Spring.
As I said, go read it all, and yes get angry, very angry. Get angry that the left is not angry over this. Get angry that feminists seemingly only notice sexual assault, even of children when it fits their leftist narrative. Get angry that the left wants MORE rather than less illegal immigration because they think it can one day bring them perpetual electoral power.
This is where Racial Obsession Syndrome will lead you kids, STAY AWAY! The First Street Journal looks at noted bigot Saira Sameera Rao
We have thrice previously mentioned Saira Sameera Rao, the American lady of Indian extraction and her constant fears that white women, even those who had been her friends, just wouldn’t give up their ‘whiteness’ and agree with every last thing she said about race. Well, thanks to the other Dana who writes on Patterico’s Pontifications, I found this on The Guardian:
Why liberal white women pay a lot of money to learn over dinner how they’re racist
A growing number of women are paying to confront their privilege – and racism – at dinners that cost $2,500
by Poppy Noor | Monday, 3 Feb 2020 | 09.51 EST First published on Monday, 3 Feb 2020 01.00 EST
Freshly made pasta is drying on the wooden bannisters lining the hall of a beautiful home in Denver, Colorado. Fox-hunting photos decorate the walls in a room full of books. A fire is burning. And downstairs, a group of liberal white women have gathered around a long wooden table to admit how racist they are.
“Recently, I have been driving around, seeing a black person, and having an assumption that they are up to no good,” says Alison Gubser. “Immediately after I am like, that’s no good! This is a human, just doing their thing. Why do I think that?”
This is Race to Dinner. A white woman volunteers to host a dinner in her home for seven other white women – often strangers, perhaps acquaintances. (Each dinner costs $2,500, which can be covered by a generous host or divided among guests.) A frank discussion is led by co-founders Regina Jackson, who is black, and Saira Rao, who identifies as Indian American. They started Race to Dinner to challenge liberal white women to accept their racism, however subconscious. “If you did this in a conference room, they’d leave,” Rao says. “But wealthy white women have been taught never to leave the dinner table.
Rao and Jackson believe white, liberal women are the most receptive audience because they are open to changing their behavior. They don’t bother with the 53% of white women who voted for Trump. White men, they feel, are similarly a lost cause. “White men are never going to change anything. If they were, they would have done it by now,” Jackson says.
Please go read it all, it is as case study in the damage done by the Leftists Maladies I speak of. Racial Obsession Syndrome, Eternal Bitterness Syndrome are both at play with Rao. Of course, there is also the fact that Rao is, like too many leeches these days, making a living off of dividing people, spreading hate, in Rao’s case, making money off of fools who are also beset by the aforementioned disorders. That anyone falls for the asinine rantings of Rao is very sad. And, yes, it is yet another example of how Leftism destroys everything good.
Outraged Lemon or Bigoted Lemon?
CNN Chief Legal Analyst Jeffrey Toobin blasted President Trump’s legal team on Saturday, arguing that its composition — all white men — highlighted how Democrats cared more about diversity.
“White House and white people,” Toobin said. “This is a lesson in the diversity of the two parties — I mean you look at the House managers. It was almost evenly divided between men and women. You had two African-Americans, you had a Hispanic.”
“It was all white men today, there are allegedly two white women on the team — we’ll see if they’re allowed to argue,” he continued. “But I think, you know, in a visual medium, when you have one side that has a very diverse team and the other side that’s all white men, that says something in and of itself.”
How pathetic, how absolutely deplorable. Toobin might as well start wearing white sheets, that is how nakedly racist this is. Not one damn word about qualification, or evidence in the impeachment case, all about race.
I call this phenomenon Consistent Inconsistenitis. In short it means that the left is only consistent at being inconsistent. This is easy for them given that truth is not a left wing value. Morals, truth, data, whatever can be twisted and turned as long as it suits the left and fits their narratives. The Other McCain notes a recent example
More anti-Semitic violence in Brooklyn:
Two women yelled “F*** you Jew” and “I will kill you Jews” at a Hasidic man in Williamsburg, Brooklyn and shoved him to the ground when he tried to film their anti-Semitic tirade, law enforcement sources and witnesses told CBS12.
The 22 year-old victim was approached by a 24- and 34-year-old female at the intersection of Broadway and Lorimer Street, the New York City Police Department told the Jewish Telegraphic Agency.
The 24 year-old grabbed the victim’s cell phone and punched him in his throat and the 34 year-old made anti-Semitic remarks, according to the NYPD.
There has been a dramatic increase in the number of violent attacks against Hasidic Jews in the New York area in recent months, including a machete attack in Monsey that left 5 injured.
On Monday evening, according to local reports, two men — one flashing a knife — threatened a Jewish teen in the Flatbush neighborhood of Brooklyn.
The two men yelled “Hey Jew boy” at the teen as one pulled out the knife, the New York Post reported.
There are two synagogues located within a block of where the incident occurred, according to the report.
The problem for the left is who is committing these horrific anti-Semitic attacks
The fact that black people are responsible for this “dramatic increase” cannot be denied, but as Ace of Spades points out, the media keep trying to blame Trump for these crimes committed in Democrat-controlled cities by people who certainly don’t seem like MAGA-hat types.
Consider this “argument” by Jay Michaelson at The Daily Beast:
New York is reeling from a wave of anti-Semitic attacks, and speaking as a Jewish parent who lives in Brooklyn, I can tell you that it’s terrifying.
It is also confusing. The vast majority of anti-Semitic attacks in this country are carried out by right-wing white supremacists. But most of the recent New York-area attacks have been carried out by people of color expressing very different grievances, or none at all. So is this the same phenomenon, or a different one? Hate, yes, but what kind of hate?
The answer is not simple. The recent street violence and acts of terror are based, in part, on anti-Semitic conspiracy theories similar to those on the Right. And yet, it is dangerous and misleading to see this as the same phenomenon, because the social contexts, the dynamics of race, and the relationships to power are all quite different. . . .
Oh no, another liberal who is suffering from another disease that leftists suffer from. Racial Obsession Syndrome (ROS)! EVERYTHING must be about race, and blaming Trump of course! Please go read the whole piece. The Other McCain is a great blog
“I refuse to do a college after this year ’cause it’s like, you’re just setting yourself up for trouble …,” he added. “Comedy is just, like, getting destroyed.”
Davidson continued, “Stand-up’s about to be about, like, sneakers. Like, ‘Hey, everyone like sneakers?’ You can’t talk about anything. You can’t.”
“The second you open your mouth and have an opinion, you lose money today,” the “Saturday Night Live” star shared. “And I don’t think that’s a safe place to live in.”
And the young comedian learned first hand when he found himself accused of using “abusive language” after his show at the University of Central Florida earlier this year, per the Washington Examiner.
Amen! We have allowed agitators to weaponize victimhood and being offended! ENOUGH! #FuckYouSnowFlakes
As I prepare for my beloved Florida Gators annual clash with the Dawgs of Georgia, I am sickened by this load of bilge the UF editorial board recently put out
The editorial board of The Alligator, a student-run newspaper at the University of Florida, published an opinion article warning students against dressing as Indians or donning sombreros for Halloween.
“Halloween should be fun, not problematic,” the piece begins. “Cultural appropriation often rears its ugly head during Halloween, as many people find it cute or funny to dress as racist interpretations of other cultures. Unfortunately, many people don’t realize their costumes are insulting.”
Why yes, you whiny little bastards, Halloween is fun, until narrow minded control freaks like you interject your Stalinist BS. Why not go find an actual problem and work on that?
“If your costume has centuries worth of cultural significance and history behind it, it’s not a costume. It’s an insult,” the editorial board out of UF informs readers. “Don’t put on that ‘Indian princess’ costume that looks like a lame rebrand of Disney’s Pocahontas. Don’t glue a fake moustache to your face and throw on a sombrero to dress as a ‘loco hombre.’”
OK, just stop! Stop the outrageously outraged act! The whole cultural appropriation lie has to stop. This is just another wedge leftists use to embitter people, bash America, and to divide us. Look, I am a Southerner, from a looonnnggg list of Southerners. I have ancestral roots in Virginia, North and South Carolina, Georgia, Alabama, and Florida. And those ancestors had ancestors, who came mainly from Ireland, and Scotland, so let me offer up MY culture and heritage. If anyone wants to eat BBQ, cornbread, greens, catfish, fried chicken, pole beans, black eyed peas, or pickled watermelon rinds I am loving it! If anyone wants to dress up as a Confederate soldier, I had dozens of great, great, great uncles and great great grandfathers who served in during Mr. Lincoln’s War. So, if anyone wants to don a grey or Butternut uniform they have my blessing. If they want to dress up as a Scotsman or Irishman then God bless them. If they want to partake in some fine Irish or Scotch whiskey, I salute them!
Now, let us Gator fans do something worthwhile, like rooting like hell for the Gators to stomp the Dawgs!
Moonbattery shares the plight of a taco truck owner who sparked outrage for daring to, get ready, sell tacos to hungry people
Lloyd, a local vendor of Mexican food, parked a taco truck at the Buffalo Federal Detention Center in Batavia, New York last week to sell lunch to the good people who work there. Moonbats opposed to American sovereignty, the rule of law, and the incarceration of foreign criminals shrieked in outrage on Twitter, provoking this abject, detailed, and profoundly disgusting apology from Lloyd:
Oh someone get me an industrial sized vomit bag. But, as it always does, cowardice did not serve Lloyd the loser very well……..
Here’s how ICE responded, via The Hill:
“The men and women who work at the Buffalo Federal Detention Facility are Detention Officers, Deportation Officers, administrative support staff, Doctors, Nurses, Judges, Attorneys, and maintenance staff. Each and every one of them is entrusted with the safety, security, and care of the detainees here. Almost 50% of the staff are Veterans. Families are not detained here nor has any child been here. Further, an overwhelming percentage of the detainees detained at this facility are criminal aliens, meaning, they continued to commit more crimes after illegally entering the United States,” ICE field office Director Thomas Feeley said in a statement to WIVB4.
Oh no, FACTS BAD! Of course Lloyd gathered whatever scraps of testicles he had and grovelled some more…………
To their credit, at least the invertebrates at Lloyd are capable of shame. Or maybe groveling apologies are a reflex reaction to all stimuli for American companies nowadays. They actually apologized for their apology:
“Chris and I want to fully and sincerely apologize for our past statement after our truck’s visit to the federal detention facility in Batavia last week. Our statement was hastily made, and we reacted too quickly to criticism we received for that visit,” said [cofounder] Pete Cimino.
How about fuck you and your apology!
All the rich folks clamoring for all student debt to be erased make me ask two questions.
First, why don’t they start paying off that debt? They call taxpayers “greedy” if we do not want our money to pay off debt w did not make. Are these rich folks not greedy, by their own definition?
Secondly, why don’t they get together and make a better system? I mean surely they can do better than the colleges, overcharging for crap courses and majors. And, why don’t these start cutting back what all their faculty make? Why aren’t these CEO’s demand the colleges reform.
Seems like these goody two shoes CEO types are suffering from Selective Outrage Syndrome
And the media? Do not expect any outrage from them. And do not expect members of the Fraud Squad to bemoan the discrimination either
PA bans LGBTQ activities in West Bank.
The Palestinian Authority banned members of the Palestinian Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender and Queer (LGBTQ) community from carrying out any activities in the West Bank.
The ban came after the grassroots group Al-Qaws for Sexual & Gender Diversity in Palestinian Society (Arabic for “the bow”), which engages and supports Palestinians who identify as LGBTQ, was planning to hold a gathering for its members in Nablus at the end of the month.
Not satisfied with banning them, the PA then promised to arrest any of the members they found.
The PA police will chase those behind the LGBTQ group and see to it that they are brought to trial once they are arrested, Zreikat warned. He further appealed to Palestinians to report to the police about any person connected to the group.
And again, Rashida Tlaib? AOC? Ayanna “Massa” Pressley? The Little Ball of Hate Ilhan Omar? Do not expect even a peep out of them.
Perpetual Tantrum Syndrome!
And they have only dug the Pit of Insanity deeper in the last 3 years
Good Freaking Grief. How do idiots like this stand being so foolish
ANN ARBOR, Mich. — University of Michigan police are investigating after a noose was found on an employee’s desk at a university hospital.
The university has “taken immediate action” to investigate the incident that occurred Thursday as an act of discrimination and criminal ethnic intimidation, said Dr. Marschall S. Runge, the dean of the University of Michigan Medical School.
“This act of hate violates all of the values that we hold dear and will not be tolerated,” Runge said in a statement, calling the noose a “symbol of hate and discrimination.”
And they will find the evil doer if they have to watch thousands of video clips, they will not rest until they find the root of this
“We have thousands of cameras all over the University of Michigan, and we are looking at all sources of information,” Young said.
But, what if there was no “hate crime”? What if some weenies just lost their lunch over nothing because they love pretending racism is everywhere? What if indeed!
Ann Arbor, Michigan — Following an extensive investigation, the University of Michigan’s Division of Public Safety and Security (DPSS) has concluded that the rope resembling a noose found at University Hospital was not the result of a hate crime.
On June 20, 2019, DPSS received a report that a Michigan Medicine employee found a spool of rope with a knot in it resembling a noose sitting on a shared workspace in University Hospital.
Based on multiple witness interviews and other evidence, DPSS does not believe that the incident involving the rope was a hate crime. If relevant new information comes forward, the case will be reopened.
During the investigation, it was learned that a spool of rope utilized for medical procedures was being used by a person on a break to practice tying a “Uni Knot,” which is a type of knot used for fishing. When the spool was returned to the storage area, the knot was still in place and discovered the following day by an employee.
Good Freaking Grief!
