American Dark Ages Begin 2017

Bring out your memes, any old memes.

The Vatican had its hand in the original Dark Ages.

The Vatican has lost control over the United States of America.

The Extreme Right Religious have reason to celebrate.

Religion, government, the military, and business riding in the same cart.

The Right Wing GOP threw the baby out with the bathwater.

They decided the anti Christ was their warrior.

Domination of the world, or end of the world.

Win/ win for them.

No fear of the button getting pressed.

Make the world Christian, or go straight to their version of Heaven.

What will happen to the Constitution, if the Democratic party is starved to death ?

An anti American communist lamenting the death of social justice....worries about the Constitution, the very fucking thing she hates and seeks to have destroyed.

LOL what an epic load.

I wonder how many times it has to be pointed out to you that "communism" is an obsolete "dying in the 80s" concept before your pointy little head absorbs that it's a meaningless jab.

Speculative fiction

... if you wanted to seize power in the US, abolish liberal democracy and set up a dictatorship, how would you go about it? What would be your cover story? It would not resemble any form of communism or socialism: those would be too unpopular.... Nations never build apparently radical forms of government on foundations that aren't there already. Thus China replaced a state bureaucracy with a similar state bureaucracy under a different name, the USSR replaced the dreaded imperial secret police with an even more dreaded secret police, and so forth. The deep foundation of the US – so went my thinking – was not the comparatively recent 18th-century Enlightenment structures of the republic, with their talk of equality and their separation of church and state, but the heavy-handed theocracy of 17th-century Puritan New England, with its marked bias against women, which would need only the opportunity of a period of social chaos to reassert itself. Like any theocracy, this one would select a few passages from the Bible to justify its actions, and it would lean heavily towards the Old Testament, not towards the New

... women made up an increasing percentage of those in the lowest-paid occupations, and they made no gains or lost ground in the better-paid trades and professions. The number of elected and politically appointed women declined. One-third of all federal budget cuts under Reagan's presidency came from programs that served mainly women, even though these programs represented only 10 per cent of the federal budget. The average amount a divorced man paid in child support fell 25 per cent. Murders related to sexual assault and domestic violence increased by 160 per cent while the overall murder rate declined; meanwhile the federal government defeated bills to fund shelters for battered women, stalled already approved funding, and in 1981 closed down the Office of Domestic Violence it had opened only two years earlier. Pro-natalists bombed and set fire to abortion clinics and harassed their staff and patients; Medicaid ceased to fund legal abortions, effectively eliminating freedom of choice for most teenage girls and poor women; several states passed laws restricting not only legal abortion but even the provision of information about abortion. The debate about freedom of choice for women flipped over into court rulings about the rights and freedom of the fetus. The Equal Rights Amendment died.

Beginning with a staged terrorist attack (blamed on Islamic extremists) that kills the President and most of Congress, a movement calling itself the "Sons of Jacob" launches a revolution and suspends the United States Constitution under the pretext of restoring order. They are quickly able to take away all of women's rights, largely attributed to financial records being stored electronically and labelled by gender. The new regime, the Republic of Gilead, moves quickly to consolidate its power and reorganize society along a new militarized, hierarchical, compulsory regime of Old Testament-inspired social and religious fanaticism among its newly created social classes. In this society, human rights are severely limited and women's rights are unrecognized as almost all women are forbidden to read.

The concept is still around it's just dressed up in new terminology and accessorized with new buzz words.

Communist, social justice warrior, socialist, 'Liberal' democrat.....

At the end of the day they are all collectivist control freak scum.

It already feels dark.

You come across like someone who gives no fucks about how badly Donald Trump screws up our nation.

 

[RabbleVox]

Actually, it's pretty goddamn wonderful to be a Democrat fag. Pansexual would be more accurate, but I will wear my pink triangle with pride.

And you know why it's wonderful to be a Democrat fag? Because we are fucking right, and we are going to win. Even if it takes 20 years (and it might), we are on the right side of history, and we are smarter than the deplorable basket, by a significant margin.

So enjoy your four years, try not to wreck too much shit, and keep your fucking hands off the constitution.

Peace,

I spent part of the day reading about the various organizations, and groups, and collections of like minded individuals, that supported Trump's rise to his position.

Neo Fascism cropped up, among other things.

The container of crazy has burst, and the news media outlets are noticing.

Are there enough safe guards in place to deal with Trump?

As it is, Trump is doing whatever the fuck he wants to do, as usual.

Trump played a joke on the United States of America, when he boasted about how "presidential" he would be.

The problem lies with neglecting to pin Trump down on what his intended meaning, was.

The usual lack of clarity. Joke ? Poke in the eye ? Lie ? "Eu-phen-ism?" Sarcasm ?

During a forum at the Harvard Kennedy School’s Institute of Politics last week, a student questioned Trump’s use of Twitter as a communications strategy. In recent tweets, Trump made false claims about election fraud, attacked reporters and complained about his portrayal on Saturday Night Live.

“I will tell you that the president-elect looks at his social media accounts — combined 25 million, probably more at this point, users on Twitter and Facebook — as a very good platform which to convey his messages,” Conway explained. “He’s a unique person who’s been following his instincts and his judgement from the beginning.”

But CNN host Jake Tapper questioned whether Trump’s use of Twitter was “presidential behavior.”

“Well, he’s the president-elect,” Conway shrugged. “So that’s presidential behavior, yes.”

Confirmation of the event ?

Boston Globe newspaper followed the story closely.

Why did Steve Bannon decide that he did not want to appear before 900 real, live, educated, and informed people watch him and listen to him, in person and live ?

gsgs comment-

I cringe each time Trump invents another word, when he is speaking in public.


Just not very presidential. It seems to illustrate how much he does not care.

Not very original G.W.Bush was the first to show America how few bucks he had to give.

Trump lied to the media, and the United States, as is usual.

Not what comes to mind, when you think of a world leader.

Trump and his advisers have sought to publicly portray the call the president-elect took from Taiwan President Tsai Ing-wen *on Friday as a routine congratulatory call. Trump noted on Twitter that she placed the call.


It (contact with Taiwan) was planned weeks ahead by staffers and Taiwan specialists on both sides, according to people familiar with the plans.

Immediately after Trump won the Nov. 8 election, his staffers compiled a list of foreign leaders with whom to arrange calls. “Very early on, Taiwan was on that list,” said Stephen Yates, a national security official during the presidency of George W. Bush and an expert on China and Taiwan. “Once the call was scheduled, I was told that there was a briefing for President-elect Trump. They knew that there would be reaction and potential blowback.”

No, you aren't, you're on the evil asshole side of history with wonderful social justice figures like Stallin, Mao and wonderful Castro!!

The very core of your political philosophy is evil and always will be.

So enjoy your four years, try not to wreck too much shit, and keep your fucking hands off the constitution.

LOL a leftist wanting to protect the Constitution, a document enshrining the rights of the individual over the state......something the left both completely rejects and finds offensive.

Don't worry it will be one from your side who totally destroys it, always is. You and the other thought police will get another day.

This statement is coming from a promoter of the movement that wants to impose its own ethnocentric orientation and simplistic political philosophy on individual rights and liberties associated with sexuality, reproduction, religion, voting rights, immigration, economic opportunity, environmental sustainability, free speech, and public safety. Just another new form of political correctness.

This is a movement that feels they can create reality, rather than recognize it. They feel they can do this because the internet has provided them with an echo chamber for reinforcing their creation of an alternate reality, which has now led us into the post-truth Presidency.

Botany Boy, quit smoking too much pot and wake up to reality! You don't actually know every fucking thing just because those genetically selected cannabis endorphins you smoke give you the impression that you are a genius.

 

[phrodeau]

One of the saner elements of the right wing took his rifle to Washington DC and accosted the staff of Comet Ping Pong, because he was convinced that they were operating a child sex ring.

Where did he get that idea? From now-legitimate right-wing news sites.

Fail right there buddy. LOL

BUTT!!! Let's play for fun.

that wants to impose its own ethnocentric orientation

What? LOL you care to clarify your SJW buzz word salad?

Sounds absolutely DIABOLICAL...but without some specifics is pretty vague if not totally meaningless.

and simplistic political philosophy on individual rights and liberties associated with sexuality, reproduction, religion, voting rights, immigration, economic opportunity, environmental sustainability, free speech, and public safety.

LMFAO!!! as opposed to the simplistic political philosophy which totally disregards the fundamental concept of the individual or their rights in the name of 'progress' of the state? A simplistic political philosophy that has murdered more of it's own people than ANY OTHER in the name of the greater good and social justice?

I'll take it!!

This is a movement that feels they can create reality, rather than recognize it.

From the creators of white privilege and the patriarchy.

That, from the person who takes it upon themselves to decide they know how to better manage my substance intake without having the slightest clue how much I consume.

And I never claimed to know everything or that I was a genius.

Now, don't get all pot-paranoid. It's obvious in your posts that no one is actually managing your substance intake. That would be your responsibility, not the responsibility of the evil leftists.

You wouldn't get me paranoid if you tried.

Yea, well, that's just like your opinion man.

That would be your responsibility, not the responsibility of the evil leftists.

Nah....I can rip a gaint doob and out PT most 20 year old snowflakes, then go make more money in a month than most of them will all year long.

I'm not like you I don't put my responsibility onto the rest of my community.

Only two days after the alt-right convention in D.C., Turning Point USA launched Professor Watchlist, a website designed to call out college professors who “discriminate against conservative students and advance leftist propaganda in the classroom.”


Today’s McCarthyism combines the red scare witch hunts of the 1950s with the 1980s attacks on multiculturalism of the culture wars and the post-9/11 loyalty tests. But Trump-era McCarthyism has further added the novelty of cyberbullying and a post-truth, fake news lack of connection to reality.


Kirk joins a long line of hysterical conservatives who freak out that faculty members are indoctrinating students, but there is no evidence to back up any of their worries. In fact all the research on student political beliefs and college show that faculty do not influence their students at all. A 2008 article in The Guardian ran down a series of studies, all of which concluded that faculty members are not indoctrinating anyone.
