Informers/Snitches Are Now Called Moderators

Informers/Snitches Are Now Called Moderators

During the communist regimes, informers and snitches on the payroll of the Security Police collected evidence on their neighbors and the “lives of others” they were assigned specifically to follow and report on. They had to work hard for their pay. They worked long and tedious hours, had to file reports, and keep thick dossiers on their subjects. When the Iron Curtain communism went underground to regroup into the neo-Marxism/globalism of today, the archives were opened and citizens were able to petition to see their dossiers. Based on their visibility and place in society, some had entire volumes of data.

The informers/snitches provided data reports to the security police every week. In exchange for their service to the dear leader, they received extra food rations from the Communist Party grocery stores, were able to shop in their special department stores for household goods, appliances and clothing, received special bonus vacations that nobody else could have, and other perks. People knew who the informers were and often times they were snitching on their own family members. They were hated by the proletariat and the intellectuals and despised by their own communist handlers who considered them scum.

The on-line snitches in the United States of America are called “moderators.” They put you in your place, warn you if you step out of line in your social media postings, and place you in FB jail repeatedly. If your facts are deemed false by the moderator, they provide as proof leftist newspaper propaganda and left-wing organizations that are hardly known as accurate sources of information.

These “moderators” are anonymous individuals, somewhere in cyberspace, unknown to you unless the right combination of search words under settings and blocking, helps materialize hundreds of ghost “friends” that you never knew nor accepted onto your FB page. They have cutesy call names and identities that are ghosted onto your account and keep you in line with the leftist propaganda.

The on-line “moderator” jobs are described as such:

“A community online moderator is someone who monitors Facebook posts, comments that are posted on blogs, message boards, websites, chat rooms, etc. Moderators will settle disputes, remove posts that are offensive or those that break forum rules and also put posts into their rightful categories.”

Translating the description above, it is a form of censorship of your online activity to match the leftist agenda. Only the posts of conservatives and libertarians are censored/removed and their authors placed in FB “jail,” blocked, removed, de-monetized, and their posts made invisible to the public.

The top 10 companies that hire “moderators” for on-line activity for allegedly $16/hour are:

  • Metaverse Mod Squad (their “moderators provide digital content, manage message board, child safety, and moderate the chat room”)
  • CrispThinking (hires “moderator to keep an eye on social media activity”)
  • ICUC (for Canada and U.S.A. only)
  • The Social Element
  • Yelp
  • BabyCenter (requires moderators with B.A. or B.S.)
  • JobVite
  • Khoros
  • Live World
  • Zynga (moderates forums for online gaming community)

The average FB users have hundreds of such snitches/fact checkers while some have thousands. Their names range from Hispanic, Asian, Chinese, Vietnamese, Romanians, Arabic, and a lot of Americans.

Apparently, working as a snitch for a living is a highly stressful occupation. Some have “direct conversations or feel ganged up on by the users. [We call them “trolls.”] Mental and emotional stress is extremely common among online content moderators.”

Who knew that making a living following the online footprint of and censoring ordinary people who disagree with the leftist communist propaganda can be so stressful?

Face Mask Hell


The Mask is not a cure, they are the means of control and spreading the Virus

How can I say that? We’re constantly told by the mass media that COVID-19 has killed a great many. Most states and global corporations now ‘mandate’ masks. The ‘authorities’ tell us wearing a mask will help save lives, right?

Wrong. For one thing, none of the Gates-controlled and paid for data can be trusted. The dehumanizing masks can’t prevent the virus and in fact, wearers often fiddle with them. They try adjust them to make their uncomfortable mufflers more comfortable. By doing so, the masks become depositories for dirty fingers. Some workers must breathe in their own CO2 for eight hours while working. If the mandatory mask wearing becomes permanent, it could become more damaging than the virus.

The real damage is inflicted upon our liberty. They tyrants are able to dictate face diaper wearing and people must go along in order to travel, go shopping, or visit the post office. In some cities there are fines and a couple of people have already been shot dead by police for not wearing them!

The battle over mask wearing has now been lost. It was never about safety. It’s has always been about conditioning and compliance and most are complying. Peer pressure does the rest. A few days ago I went food shopping. I was the only one in the store without a mask and the checkout clerk barked at me to social distance because I was mask-less, even though I was in the designated box. I was treated like a threatening disease. A while later, I could not go into the post office. A large sign told me I must now sport a mask. I didn’t have one.

I also saw young people walking alone on sidewalks under a hot sun with masks on. I saw others driving in their cars with masks on. The steady drumbeat of fear from the corporate mass media has been successful. The masks are here to stay and people are marching in lockstep with them on. No resistance offered. Control by mask was all too easy for the Illuminati. They want us to voluntarily cooperate with our own demise and we’re cooperating. Businesses are, too. No shirt, no shoes, no mask, no service.

Once people are conditioned to wearing harmful masks, Bill Gates’ mandatory harmful vaccine will be a snap. Many people will insist on a biometric, trackable vaccine in order to shed their masks. Then it will be the same. No access to travel, shopping, or post office use without the ‘mark of the beast’ vaccine. A smiling Gates will rake in more billions of dollars while subjecting us all to noxious, life-shortening substances that will no doubt be present in his vaccine. It won’t stop the coronavirus, but it will stop us. His ID2020 vision will come to fruition. It will be combined with a cashless system, which means everything we do and spend will be tracked and taxed. A Chinese-style social credit system will become commonplace. It all ends with a police state and absolute tyranny. We’ll all be slaves at the mercy of the top, Satanic .001 percent. They will rejoice because We, the Sheeple will have voluntarily done it to ourselves.

THAT is why the mask is worse than the disease.

America’s Red Guards storm the Big Blue Cities


So, who started the Cultural Revolution there and then?  And who started the Cancel Culture here and now?

America's Red Guards storm the Big Blue Cities

The Chinese Communist Party’s Cultural Revolution (1966-1976) was the precursor to today’s urban protests involving Black Lives Matter (BLM) and Antifa. 

As America’s Cancel Culture spread into several Big Blue Cities, largely governed by Democrat politicians for decades, city officials stood back and let it happen.

The Street Players

BLM is a derivative of the “Hands Up, Don’t Shoot” movement that surfaced in August 2014 following the shooting of Michael Brown in Ferguson, Missouri.  Today, BLM features many young whites in their 20s, and, it appears, fewer blacks. When the heavy looting begins, blacks seem to outnumber whites.

BLM co-founder Patrisse Cullors, speaking for herself and co-founder Alicia Garza, stated in a video interview with The Real News that, “‘[W]e have an ideological frame. Myself and Alicia are trained organizers. We are trained Marxists. We are super-versed on ideological theories’”.

Antifa was originally the paramilitary wing of the Communist Party in early 1930s Germany. Its street thugs and Biergarten brawlers battled the Nazi Brown Shirts. And lost. Today’s American Antifa dress in all black with anti-virus masks, as they break windows, destroy police vehicles, and beat-up people.  

The Cancel Culture tactics of America’s Red Guards match much of what once raged in the People Republic of China then led by Marxist and Party Chairman Mao Zedong.

Professor Frank Dikötter, Chair of Humanities at the University of Hong Kong, was formerly Professor of the Modern History of China at the University of London. He wrote a three-volume history of China covering 1945-1976. The final volume, The Cultural Revolution (Bloomsbury Publishing, ©2016, 396 pp.) focuses on China’s Cultural Revolution.

Compare elements of China’s Cultural Revolution to America’s Cancel Culture movement underway. Keep the ideological pedigree of “The Street Players” in mind.  In China…

Rioters were taught “class struggle” in school

“For several years, students had been brought up in the militant doctrine of ‘class struggle’, and the Socialist Education Campaign had warned them of class enemies lurking in every corner, plotting to over throw the party.” (p. 54)

Physical assaults were part of protesting

“Red guards began physically attacking teachers and administrators the moment they heard of Mao’s battle cry ‘To Rebel is Justified.’” (p. 73)

Assaults occasionally led to killing

“The first death occurred in a girl’s school administered by Beijing Normal University. Bian Zhongyun, the vice-principal…students spat in her face, filled her mouth with soil, forced a dunce’s cap on her head, tied her hands behind her back and then beaten her black and blue…When she finally reached the hospital across the street two hours later, she was pronounced dead.” (p. 73)

Cultural Revolution had clearly stated goals

“The real founding of Red Guards was a campaign to destroy all remnants of old society. On 18 August [1966], appearing on the rostrum next to Chairman Mao, Lin Biao had exhorted his youthful audience to go and destroy ‘all the old ideas, old culture, old customs and old habits of the exploiting classes’. Feudal ideology had fettered people’s minds for thousands of years, and now these cultural remnants were to be destroyed to ensure that the country’s revolutionary colour would never fade. Tradition was the dead hand of the past trying to maintain its grip on the living, and it was to be smashed to smithereens.” (pp. 80-81)   

Destruction of small businesses went unchallenged by the police

“On the evening of 20 August [1966], bands of Red Guards began roving through the streets of Beijing, attacking anything that smacked of the old order. They changed street names, plastering new revolutionary terms over old signs. Shops providing services, for instance tailors and barbers, came under attack, as their owners were humiliated, sometimes beaten and forced to close down.” (p. 81)

Religious buildings were targeted for destruction

“Public monuments were assailed. In Shanghai, it took the Red guards only a few days to demolish eighteen listed historical monuments…The Confucius Temple, an ancient architectural complex located in a quiet public park, was razed to the ground. Red Guards also tackled St Ignatius Cathedral…tearing down the spires and the ceiling before shattering its stained-glass windows…a report later established that ‘All the articles of worship inside Catholic churches have been destroyed.’” (p. 84) 

Protestors looted with impunity

”[T]he Red Guards lined…their pockets with money, jewelry and wristwatches, openly appropriating radios and bicycles in the name of the cause. The school dormitories suddenly became plush.  Many students were enjoying themselves there with their loot. There were also common thieves who impersonated Red Guards, doing the rounds to seize their share of the booty.” (p. 90)

Small businesses and poor people suffered crippling loses

“Whole categories of people became unemployed. In Nanjing, the number of jobseekers increased tenfold. There were florists, greengrocers, fruit sellers, cobblers, tanners, coppersmiths, papermakers, printers, photographers, painters, dressmakers, embroiderers, bookbinders, undertakers and others. Many were ruined because their shops were forced to close down, while others could no longer make ends meet. The vast majority were poor people.” (p. 94)

Erasing the past meant changing the names of some products

“The effects of the Cultural Revolution reverberated throughout the industrial sector. The labelling, packaging and contents of every single manufactured product, from toys, textiles, cosmetics and appliances to porcelain, had to be purged of all remnants of the feudal past.  A pair of socks, a tube of toothpaste or an enameled washbasin branded Fairy or Golden Pagoda was an insult to the proletariat.  The State Council demanded strict compliance with the demands of the Cultural Revolution, but in Shanghai alone there were close to 6,000 products with a label or design evocative of the past. It took years of overhauling to conform.” (p. 95)

Public shaming demanded public confession

Public shaming demanded public confession

Chairman Mao heralded the civil war he started

“On 1 June 1966…celebrating his birthday with members of the Cultural Revolution Group, the Chairman gave a toast: ‘To the unfolding of a nationwide civil war!’” (p. 124) 

China’s Cultural Revolution was just beginning

“In Beijing, where most of the killings took place, public acts of violence by Red Guards began to abate in the first days of September [1966] and then seemed to cease altogether.  The police were in charge again…The lull did not last. The flames of the revolution had to be constantly rekindled, and on 31 August another mass rally was organized in Beijing. This time the Chairman (Mao) called upon the Red Guards to apply their revolutionary experience to other parts of the country. On 5 September, the State Council announced that travel, board and accommodation would be free to all Red Guards.” (p. 101)

So, who started the Cultural Revolution there and then?

And who started the Cancel Culture here and now?

Mao’s Red Guards

Have We Reached The Point Of Irreconcilable Differences Where Divorce Or Civil War Will Be The Only Action Left?


Time is running out to quell this madness

Ray DiLorenzo image

Re-posted from the Canada Free Press By  —— Bio and Archives—July 18, 2020

Irreconcilable Differences

We are at war, believe it or not, like it or not. Contrary to what the media wants you to believe, it is not Black vs. White, but Left vs. Right. Forces have been gathering and preparing for decades with the intention of destroying our country, and taking over the government. They have been doing it from the inside, knowing there was no chance for a military solution.

Political differences in America are not a new phenomenon. We’ve had our share. But, we are now living in a time when the opposition is now openly in disagreement on the very basics of what our country’s values are. The Democrat Party has been taken over by these forces and has clearly demonstrated their desire to establish a Democratic-Socialist state, a far cry from our founding. Any resistance within the Party to their agenda has now been silenced. Their hatred for our country in recent years has shocked even the hardened apolitical. Have we reached a point of irreconcilable differences? Quite possibly, but it has always been irreconcilable to the leaders on the Left. We just were unaware.

The Left insist on tearing down America

What the Left is demanding is far from where we have been. Instead of making America great again, they insist on tearing it down. They are demanding we shed our Judeo-Christian foundation. They want a new Constitution, one where rights are granted by government, not by God. All statues, monuments of our past, institutions, are to be destroyed. Even statues of abolitionists. All vestiges of our founding and history erased. They want a new country, a secular socialist state where everyone is equal and to remain so, regardless of talent or personal industry. They want the electoral college scrapped, mail-in voting installed, even though rife with fraud, or because of it. They are demanding the voting age be lowered to 16, limits on free speech, and of course, no right to self-protection. They want the end of private property, capitalism, meritocracy, everything that is uniquely American. In the interim, they are willing to shed any constitutional protection if it grants them short-term gain.

How can we survive as a nation with such disparity?

Unlike revolutions in history, there seems to be no rhyme or reason for discontent, except ignorance, lust for power, and hatred of God and country born of decades of communist propaganda in our schools and media. Our economy has been at a zenith with unemployment at record lows for nearly every American, regardless of race or gender. Wars are finally winding down, after twenty years. Taxes are relatively low. We are now energy independent. The business climate has been nothing less than exceptional. And yet, here we are.

Whether the COVID phenomenon is natural or as many call it, a plandemic, it has been weaponized and tearing our nation apart. COVID deaths are being highly inflated. As an example, many hospitals are listing motor vehicle deaths as COVID caused. This pandemic is actively being kept alive for a purpose, a very evil purpose…an undercover insurgency aided by the Deep State, a compliant media, and naive corporations unwilling to be called racist. It is all to reverse Trump’s many economic accomplishments, and put a stop to any more Trump rallies. It is to assure a Trump loss in 2020 to complete the agenda they had planned for 2016. Maybe more importantly, it will put a halt to any further investigations into Democrat insurgency and treason.

Democrat cities are being destroyed by savage mobs

This COVID-19 appeared immediately after the impeachment failed…coincidence? At the same time, our coinage began to disappear. Merchants started asking for exact change or credit card use, better to track people’s activity…coincidence? Was the Floyd death coincidence or planned? Obama had been reseeding racism, a powerful future cover for insurrection, almost immediately after his inauguration. If Biden should win in November, I can assure everyone that COVID-19 will disappear from the front pages almost immediately.

Democrat cities are being destroyed by savage mobs. Many have forgotten why they are rioting. Bricks are being delivered, so they throw them. It’s a perverse sense of permission. Police officers are being murdered, ambushed and assaulted. Laws that assure civil order are being ignored by Democrat governors and mayors. Churches are now being destroyed or vandalized. The Left’s ‘shock troops’, Marxist organizations committed to the overthrow of our nation like BLM and Antifa, are being utilized as Democrat militia. Any loss of life, property, or livelihood suffered by Americans is deemed collateral damage.

To further the hostility and create a sort of modern witch hunt, everything has been politicized by the Left…the Constitution, healthcare, education, religion, our culture, capitalism, meritocracy, private property, home ownership…It’s all fair game. Every slight is now either racism, misogyny, white supremacy, homophobia, whatever.

How can we compromise with such brutish people? You don’t. You defeat them. Peaceful protests are fine, but everyone who is violent and a danger to our republic needs to be found and punished quickly. Every high-ranking federal employee that is deemed an insurgent should be arrested and tried. There are plenty of prison cells available since so many convicts have been released. Other federal employees should be held to their oath or removed with a loss of pension. Any political party found to have dabbled in sedition should be dissolved. Arrest all insurgent leaders in the media, education, and especially those who have financed the sedition, Black Lives Matter and Antifa declared terrorist organizations.

Time is running out to quell this madness. The inaction of many Democrat state governors and mayors has been curious, as it has encouraged many on the street to anarchy. Much should have been done by now. Have we reached the point of irreconcilable differences where divorce or civil war will be the only action? Maybe, maybe not, but it is getting dangerously close.

Teen Vogue: Sleeping, Copping Naps Now systemically racist!


“Brace yourself because if sleeping is “systemically racist”, so is breathing, which is why governments have ordered the wearing of the face mask as mandatory.”

Sleepy Joe Biden

Listen up all you racists in the Land of Nod: Sleeping is now “systemically racist”!

So says Teen Vogue Magazine, well on its way for the Pulitzer Prize for All-Time Absurdity.

“I now grasp the problem I have when sometimes I just can’t get to sleep. It’s racist and my guilty subconscious is keeping me awake,”Canada Free Press cartoonist Dag Barkley signalled to his Mother Ship early this morning.

You, too, Barkley?

Before rushing off full speed ahead for the Pulitzer, Teen Vogue was best known for advocating children to have anal sex (ProjectRepublicToday, Nov. 16, 2017 ).

That December, two-time Democrat failure for president Hillary Clinton served as the magazine’s guest editor.

“Teen Vogue, in its imperishable desire to act as the spearhead for political correctness, published an article titled “Black Power Naps Is Addressing Systemic Racism in Sleep,” in which they plugged an artistic initiative entitled “Black Power Naps,” which argues that blacks have had shorter lives than whites because blacks were not permitted to sleep, and thus reparations must be given in the form of time off from work. (Daily Wire, July 16, 2020)

Shouldn’t the now Socialist Dems be going to the rescue of ‘Sleepy Joe’?

“Teen Vogue writes of Fannie Sosa and Navild Acosta, who created Black Power Naps, that they “were tired, but it wasn’t just any old fatigue. Yes, they experienced a lack of sleep, but they were specifically experiencing a generational fatigue familiar to Black people and people of color.” (Daily Wire)

“Teen Vogue says Black Power Naps is “also a recognition of the hundreds of years of sleep deprivation that Black people and people of color have experienced as a result of systemic racism, a way to pushback against the false stereotype that Black people are lazy, and an investigation of the inequitable distribution of rest.”

Slavery is a regime of stealing and extraction: Stolen wages, stolen life, stolen land, but stolen time

“Acosta posited, “We’re dealing with an inheritance of sleep deprivation. Sleep deprivation was a … deliberate tactic of slave owners to basically make the mind feeble. That same tactic has only evolved.”

“Sosa added, “Slavery is a regime of stealing and extraction: Stolen wages, stolen life, stolen land, but stolen time was one of the main things. We need time. We need time off; we need time out. Our ancestors never got to take a month off for holidays; they never got to take a sabbatical; they never got to take a nap. When you pile all of those together, you see the reparations that need to happen are monetary, but they’re also time and space.”

“Teen Vogue writes, “Acosta and Sosa are calling for rest as reparations. Yes, they’re looking for an ease to the many burdens that might prevent Black people and people of color from sleeping like systemic racism, socioeconomic struggle, and more.” Teen Vogue adds, “This conversation about rest is particularly pertinent now, as people take to the streets to say Black Lives Matter. If Black people keep having to fight for their humanity, how can they ever rest knowing they could be in danger?”

“Sosa said, “We are having to go out in the streets during a pandemic, expending our energy in really huge amounts in order to ask for reparations and rest and energy. It is a … double edged sword to navigate as an activist or organizer. You are putting your body on the line to reclaim it. That creates a lot of burnout. We have people who are 20, 21, they are burnt out. They need time off. They need not only to sleep, but to know their people are going to be ok, to know they’re going to be ok, to know they can take a break.”

Meantime, as cartoonist Barkley points out, “The epitome of utter craziness has finally happened. Okay, it’s been going on for some time, but now we have the winner!”

As Mother Ship responded: “Brace yourself because if sleeping is “systemically racist”, so is breathing, which is why governments have ordered the wearing of the face mask as mandatory.”

George Washington University Engages in Political Subversion


Armstrong Economics Blog/Politics

Rep-Posted Jul 18, 2020 by Martin Armstrong

Well, if you are paying for your children to go to university, you better scratch George Washington University off the list. Students attending George Washington University were told to read an anti-racism syllabus that said that conservatism as “incompatible” with black Americans who seek freedom. While Hillary Clinton called conservatives “deplorable,” now they are being called racists by GW University.

It is really amazing how boldly they have acted against half of the country. GW University published “Solidarity Resource Syllabus,” which included “Conservatism and Racism, and Why in America They Are the Same.” This is taking one giant step toward anarchy. This university or any other that is engaging in deliberate brain-washing should be defunded from any government funds whatsoever including student loans. The only way to deal with this type of conduct is to deny student loans to any university engaging in political indoctrination.

America’s Useful Idiots


If we fail to say no to America’s useful idiots, then another of Lenin’s quotes will come to fruition — “the goal of socialism is communism.”

Allen West image

Re-posted from the Canada Free Press By  —— Bio and Archives—July 16, 2020

America’s Useful Idiots

“Useful idiots” is a phrase attributed to Vladimir Lenin, who supposedly used it to describe communist sympathizers in Western Civilization.

It is a very appropriate descriptor when it comes to the so-called “woke” mob of the so-called “resistance” that has overtaken the streets of America. Well, let me rephrase that: They have overtaken the streets of major population centers in America. The infestation of wokeness and idiocy seems concentrated in the very places where progressive socialist policies have failed in America.

You cannot appease, acquiesce, or compromise with the mob, America’s useful idiots

Consider the idiocy of a city in Colorado that is incarcerating people who do not wear a mask. Yet these same leftists claimed that criminals had to be released from incarceration due to the threat of COVID-19. Or consider the idiocy of going into the home of private citizens and confiscating their weapon, their right to keep and bear arms, for no apparent reason, other than they defended their property, safety, and security against the invasion of the “woke” mob — the useful idiots.

In Seattle, the useful idiots established their own autonomous zone, driving out law enforcement. The mayor of Seattle described the autonomous zone called CHOP as having a festive atmosphere. Well, that ended once the threats, looting, and murders of two young black men happened, and the mayor ordered police in to reestablish law and order. Now, the useful idiots of Seattle want to recall the mayor.

Lesson learned — you cannot appease, acquiesce, or compromise with the mob, America’s useful idiots.

What is amazing to me is that we have these young black boys and girls who have joined the useful idiocy. Consider what happened at the University of Wisconsin where the black student union demanded the removal of the statue of President Abraham Lincoln. It appears they believe, wrongly of course, that Lincoln did not do enough for blacks — what?

Hmm, President Lincoln, the first Republican president, lost his life because of his commitment to freedom for Blacks. What more do the useful idiots think Lincoln should have done? Even in his own words, President Lincoln talked about giving the last full measure of devotion, his words from the Gettysburg Address.

And the absurdity does not end there. Consider, over Memorial Day weekend, useful idiots tore down the statue of Frederick Douglass. Douglass’ story is beyond amazing, and he should be the example that the young black members of the useful idiot club follow.

So, why do you tear down statues of Abraham Lincoln, Frederick Douglass, or memorials to Black soldiers? Only one answer, you’re a useful idiot

Douglass was a freed, self-educated slave who became a leading voice for freedom and abolition of slavery. And do not forget the defacing of the memorial to the 54th Massachusetts Regiment of the Civil War in Boston. They were the first all-Black unit to serve America. They are my predecessors.

So, why do you tear down statues of Abraham Lincoln, Frederick Douglass, or memorials to Black soldiers? Only one answer, you’re a useful idiot.

America’s useful idiots want to embrace a philosophy of governance that is the antithesis of the liberty and freedoms that they enjoy. Do not believe me? Well, how about our woke little temper tantrum kids take a trip to Hong Kong. There you will find young people resisting the very ideology that our young people want to live under. How about our useful idiots talk to those Venezuelans who now reside in the United States, like former Miss Venezuela Carmen Maria Montiel, and learn just how awesome socialism truly is.

America’s useful idiots are busy searching and destroying anything that they claim is connected to systemic racism. Then why are these little cherubs aligning themselves with the Democrat Party? If we were to do a truly historical analysis of the Democrat Party, you would find the real purveyors of systemic racism in our country. I could go on, but think about the history of a political party that voted against the 13th, 14th, and 15th Amendments. A political party that created our first domestic terrorist organization, the Ku Klux Klan — oh, yeah, they created the second one also, Antifa.

The KKK was established to prevent freed Blacks, thanks to Republican efforts, from voting – Republican! Heck, the first Congressional Black Caucus was not Democrat. Jim Crow, segregation, lynching, all the darkest moments in U.S. history are tied to the very political party of which these useful idiots belong.

And just a reminder, the Civil Rights Act of 1964 passed because of a Republican Senator, Everett Dirksen. The longest filibuster in U.S. Senate history was done by Senate Democrats seeking to block the civil rights bill from even getting to the Senate floor. And West Virginia Senator, Robert Byrd, was one of them. He was an Exalted Cyclops in the KKK. He never switched political parties. He was praised by people such as Bill and Hillary Clinton, Barack Obama, and Joe Biden. Yet Byrd’s statues and memorials have not been targeted for destruction — why?

How did we get to this point? Simple, we stopped teaching history and civics

Yes, useful idiots.

How did we get to this point? Simple, we stopped teaching history and civics. Those subjects were replaced with social studies, which is just the study of leftist ideological agendas. Our education system is no longer based upon learning, educating, it is focused on indoctrinating. Leftists have overtaken our school boards, the most important elected positions in America. Yet, it is the elected position that routinely has the least amount of voter participation.

Lenin was correct. Western Civilization would topple because of useful idiots advancing the ideals of socialism, communism, and Marxism. And it began in the halls of our academic institutions. The irrational emotionalism that is spreading like cancer across America is quite disconcerting, utterly illogical.

The problem is that there are those who believe you can appease the mob. That you can have a rational discussion with a useful idiot. What we can do is take a stand, speak up, and just say no!

If we fail to say no to America’s useful idiots, then another of Lenin’s quotes will come to fruition — “the goal of socialism is communism.”

Toronto Bans Holy Communion in Churches – Is History Repeating?


Armstrong Economics Blog/Canada

Re-Posted Jul 17, 2020 by Martin Armstrong

There we go again… Toronto banned (Catholic and Orthodox) churches from giving Holy Communion. Not long ago, all churches were forced to close for more than two months and public Masses were banned. Now they’re opened, but Communion is banned. This virus is allowing the destruction of religion which was indeed part of the Marxist agenda. It is really amazing how draconian politicians are becoming, which is stirring up the religious right, and was a direct consequence of the Communist Revolution.

While Constantine I the Great had pictured himself with the Roman god Sol, he used Christianity as the excuse to plunder the pagan temples. There too, he used religion to divide the Roman Empire and he justified that there should be only one emperor because there was only one God.

We also find a religious war within Christianity known as Iconoclasm. Following the Byzantine Emperor Justinian (527–565) saw a vast increase in the use of images. It was the year 695AD when Justinian II’s government added a full-face image of Christ on the obverse of imperial gold coins. The change caused the Caliph Abd al-Malik to stop using Byzantine coin types and he introduced the first purely Islamic coinage with only lettering.

The iconoclasm began with Byzantine Emperor Leo III, who issued a series of edicts between 726 and 730 against the veneration of images. This ignited a religious conflict that led to priests being killed for protecting icons.

So religion has often erupted into social conflicts and civil unrest. We see this same issue reemerge during the 16th century when it erupted in Germany in Wittenberg during the early 1520s. It prompted Martin Luther to intervene arguing that the mental picturing of Christ when reading the Scriptures was similar in character to artistic renderings of Christ. Thus, the Lutherans favored sacred art in contrast to the Calvinists who argued for the removal of all religious images. Interestingly enough, it was the governments, in most cases, who removed images in the Reformed Protestant cities and territories of Europe.

There is a cycle to everything.

Can’t Lean On Black Lives Matter, Only Kneel Before Them

Abad idea whose time has come: It started when Black Lives Matter protesters began temporarily suspending their signature chants, screeches and wailings during protests to sing super talented Bill Wither’s song,’Lean on Me’—an idea that crash landed at the L.A. Times with a suggestion that the song should replace the National Anthem.

But Baby, It’s Gotta’ Be Cold Outside’ when a catchy, hand-clapping tune can replace the 206-year-old ‘Star-Spangled Banner!

“An op-ed from The Los Angeles Times raised eyebrows for calling on “The Star-Spangled Banner” to be canceled as the national anthem. (Fox News, July 14, 2020)

“imposing and fussy.”

“Contributing writer Jody Rosen began his column by slamming a San Francisco monument of Francis Scott Key, who famously wrote the lyrics to “The Star-Spangled Banner,” as “imposing and fussy.”

“After noting that the Key statue had been taken down by rioters, Rosen appeared to offer a justification for the vandalism as he, too, was a slaveowner.”

Rosen authored the book ‘White Christmas: The Story of an American Song’.  How long before the revisionist culture delists the song because of its first word?

“The wave of reckoning and revisionism that is sweeping the country may have to come for the national anthem,” Rosen wrote, pointing to viral claims that “The Star-Spangled Banner” is a “racist song” that stems from Key’s poem “Defence of Fort M’Henry,” which invokes slaves. (Fox News)

“Rosen listed several songs that have been floated around to become the next national anthem, including John Lennon’s “Imagine,” James Weldon Johnson’s “Lift Every Voice and Sing,” as well as other iconic American tunes like “God Bless America,” “America the Beautiful,” and “This Land is Your Land.”

“Nope, none of these songs will do,” Rosen argued. “At a moment when the United States is in the grip of multiple crises — convulsed by debates over racism and injustice, ravaged by a pandemic, with a crumbling economy and a faltering democracy — the very idea of a national anthem, a hymn to the glory of country, feels like a crude relic, another monument that may warrant tearing down. But if we must have an anthem, it should be far different than the one we’ve got now, positing another kind of patriotism, an alternative idea of America and Americanness. It would also be neat if it was, you know, a decent song, which a citizen could sing without crashing into an o’er or a thee, or being asked to pole vault across octaves.”

“The LA Times writer concluded that such a song should be Bill Withers’ “Lean on Me.”

“It’s a modest song that puts on no airs. It speaks in plain musical language, without a trace of bombast, in a tidy arrangement that unfolds over a few basic chords. It doesn’t march to a martial beat or rise to grand crescendos. The lyrics hold no pastoral images of fruited plains or oceans white with foam, no high-minded invocations of liberty or God. ‘Lean on Me’ is a deeply American song — but it’s not, explicitly at least, a song about America,” Rosen explained. “Yet it has long been a kind of national anthem. ‘Lean on Me’ is one of just a handful of songs to have reached No. 1 on the Billboard pop charts in two different versions… It is surely among the most widely sung American songs of the past half-century.”

“Rosen noted all the famous singers who have performed the hit song, like Stevie Wonder, Bon Jovi, Mary J. Blige, Garth Brooks, Shawn Mendes and Nick Jonas, and how the song was sung at Black Lives Matter protests across the country in recent weeks and was used as a tribute to first responders towards the beginning of the coronavirus outbreak.

“What do all of these singers hear in ‘Lean on Me’? They hear a message of friendship and fellow-feeling so straightforward it may at first appear banal,” Rosen continued.

“When you bolster that sentiment, as Withers does, with some handclaps and a funky bassline, the words ring even truer. It’s a message you could build something on, a pretty solid foundation for a decent society. It can bear the load.”

“Rosen’s suggestion, however, was widely panned on social media.

“It’s almost like they’re trying to reelect Trump,” Tom Bevan, RealClearPolitics president and co-founder, reacted.

“Let’s replace it with ‘Everybody’s Special’ from Barney and Friends,” Ben Shapiro joked.

“Let’s just Etch-a-Sketch everything and start the country from scratch, shall we? Saves time…” The Hill media reporter Joe Concha suggested.

“First they wanted you to kneel, and now they want to replace the national anthem. This is an erasure of our history and tradition—plain and simple,” Rep. Jim Banks, R-Ind., warned.

“There has been a cultural shift following the May 25 death of George Floyd in Minneapolis. Floyd, a Black man, died after a White police officer held his knee on Floyd’s neck for nearly nine minutes.

“The television shows “Cops” and “Live PD” were canceled, “Gone With the Wind” was temporarily pulled from HBO Max and re-added with historical context. White actors have withdrawn from voicing characters of color on animated TV shows, brands like Aunt Jemima and Uncle Ben’s have been retired, and episodes of sitcoms featuring blackface have been removed from streaming platforms. And the Washington Redskins will be retiring its longtime franchise name.”

But no one seems able to read ‘The End’ after any of the above.

‘Lean on Me’ is a beautiful, hand-clapping song.  ‘The Star-Spangled Banner’, America’s much revered National Anthem.

As for BLM’ adopting ‘Lean on Me’ as its own,  nothing American can lean on BLM which only wants an entire nation to kneel to them.

Yesterday’s Slave Owners and Today’s Statues are Not Killing 3000 Black and White Humans per Day


Punishing Memories and Monuments

Babies

Defending righteous causes is one thing, but becoming a moral hypocrite is quite another.

Roe V. Wade landed on  Planet Earth in 1973 and declared that it would be one small step for moral reprobates and liars, and one giant leap for hypocrites.

Planned Parenthood and an army of selfish women, indifferent men and politically twisted advocates of slaughter, have since stormed the congress for cash to keep the purge alive, while wasting  babies at a rate of almost 3,000 a day.

The “woke” are fast asleep and The BLM has no idea about what lives matter

Ideologues and activists have provided a plethora of slogans and a vast field of arguments to justify and perpetuate the lie that lazy, self-indulgent, and perfectly selfish women are practicing good health, by aborting their unborn babies.

The abortionists want to force the use and perpetuation of abortifacients on organizations like The Little Sisters of the Poor, but can’t seem to find enough personal control in their own moments of peak lust to get some prevention. The result is, many dead, perfectly healthy and possibly very useful and productive human beings.

There are always a few good causes left to die for, but no one would argue that self-indulgence is one of them. But then, it is not their lives the indulgent are paying with.

If all or any part of their redundant and ever so tiring argument fails, there is always the classic and thoroughly effective final volley of fire known as – It’s the law of the land.

There is no restoration in the midst of reprobation!

When any movement or part of society is unable to see or even note its own hypocrisy you have passed from pretty bad to full blown reprobation.

Reprobation cannot hide under the trend of the day because it is a great swollen and fully obvious insult to everything that is normal, much less sacred. Now is the time to recognize the hypocrisy, or perish in its inevitable product.

The “woke” are fast asleep.

The BLM has no idea about what lives matter.

The Cancel Culture has cancelled itself

The Cancel Culture has cancelled itself, even if those who are cutting off others don’t recognize that salient simple fact.

Antifa is just a step below Isis and its adherents should return to their parent’s basements and the video games.

Trump haters have long since dumped their cause under the heading of extreme, absurd and mostly useless. After the Russia hoax and half dozen other false starts – that too has become boring and idiotic.

Biden, Sanders, Pelosi, Ilhan Omar and AOC have tried to sell us a bag of rotten fruit (socialism) that has failed anywhere in this world where it was ever tried.

Pulling down a few statues, renaming sports teams and bending the knee is like trying to fix rotten wood with a coat of paint.

So what should we do?

Mother used to say it all the time – just cut it out.

Headlines that Betray the Hypocrites – You can judge a book by its cover after all!

After writing for over 35 years and publishing for 15 years, this writer has discovered some interesting facts. It is easy to tell what Americans are thinking by what they are reading.

I have tried to warn some writers, that their article titles are the hook for the rest of their work. Short titles like, How to Relax, get about 90 percent less reads than titles that are lengthy, challenging and informative. The title of the article is equivalent to the cover of the book.

A compendium of current titles can reveal the collective pathology of a rising or falling nation.

Here, in this cross section of titles and headlines you can see a serious fall. These are the headlines that should reveal and decry our hypocrisies rather than giving them fuel.

The first one comes from the Internet’s noted satire and tongue in cheek site called ‘The Babylon Bee’.   It is a perfect example of how a title can carry rebuke or truth even though it is meant for comedy:

Nation That Kills 3,000 Babies A Day Feels Morally Superior To Slaveowners From 200 Years Ago

The rest are not meant for comedy and it is abundantly clear that there isn’t a stitch of humor in what they reveal.

How badly we are treating our children

Family of 1-year-old killed in Brooklyn slams ‘cowards’ who shot him: ‘What about baby lives?’
If Black Lives Matter, Defund Planned Parenthood, Not The Police

“LGBT education pack” features six-year-old engaging in sexual activity, as pedophilia becomes normalized

Since every one of these article titles has something to do with how badly we are treating our children, then here is an entire list of 29 titles on children wasted and disregarded for your perusal.

These titles are the tip of the spear or the blade of the sword. If they cut you to the heart then something good has been accomplished.

If you are offended by these titles consider this warning about offenses.

“But whoso shall offend one of these little ones which believe in me, it were better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and that he were drowned in the depth of the sea.” (Mt 18:6)
