BURNING MASKS BAD, BURNING BOOKS GOOD!

I sometimes listen to CNN in the background while I’m working during the day. I tune in to hear what the socialist Democrats’ latest talking points are, but usually my disgust makes me quickly change the channel.

I happen to catch a segment on CNN concerning a big rally held in Idaho. Many citizens and their children there were tossing their slave masks into a flaming barrel.

One of the females on the broadcast—either the anchor or the guest—remarked that the burning reminded her of something that would happen in Nazi Germany. This made me laugh out loud, because the left is behind the modern book burning and ‘cancel culture.’ The Bolsheviks want American culture destroyed to make it easier for people to worship big government without distraction. They are using the virus to drum up fear, which keeps people submissive and willing to do any ridiculous thing to make the fear go away. It irks them to see citizens waking up to their scam. Therefore, they hurl names at them such as ’neanderthal,’ and ’Nazi!’

It was good to see people finally pushing back against the masks of compliance. (Let’s hope they don’t comply with mandatory vaccinations either). The masks are useless as proven by science, but the ruling caste still wants everyone continuing to wear them as a sign of submission–even after receiving several doses of dangerous, experimental vaccines.

More people need to speak up and stand up against the medical tyranny that is mask wearing.
Burn ‘em if you got ‘em!

While it's entirely possible to have accidentally made an odal-shaped stage, that the reaction to having this be pointed out was "how dare you attack us like this" and not "oh holy poo poo we didn't even realise" makes any lingering plausible deniability evaporate.

I’m very confused by the inclusion of “When Harry Became Sally.” That sounds like a fictional pro-trans story, but why would the evil liberals be burning that?

I hadn't heard of it either, so I looked to see if there was a wiki article about it. There wasn't, but there was one for its author, Ryan T. Anderson (who works with Heritage Foundation, so...). Apparently it got pulled from Amazon a few weeks ago. Wikipedia sourced a Newsweek article :

Ryan Anderson posted:

...
In 2018, the book hit No. 1 on two of Amazon's best-seller list before it was even released, but sparked controversy for arguing that society's growing acceptance of transgender people stems more from ideology than science.

"We need to respect the dignity of people who identify as transgender," Anderson argued in the book, "but without encouraging children to undergo experimental transition treatments, and without trampling on the needs and interests of others."
...
While the book was well-received by conservatives, LGBTQ activists have dismissed the book as anti-trans and "dangerous."

"People who have actually read my book discovered that it was a thoughtful and accessible presentation of the state of the scientific, medical, philosophical and legal debates," Anderson told Newsweek. "Yes, it advances an argument from a certain viewpoint. No, it didn't get any facts wrong, and it didn't engage in any name-calling."
...
"Three years after publication, in the very same week that the House of Representatives is going to ram through a radical transgender bill amending the Civil Rights Act of 1964, Amazon erases my book opposing gender ideology from their cyber shelves," Anderson wrote to Newsweek. "Make no mistake, both Big Government and Big Tech can undermine human dignity and liberty, human flourishing and the common good."

So a guy trying to say "I'm not anti-trans, I'm just asking questions ;)" before characterizing an attempt to expand trans rights as "ramming through," got his book yanked by Amazon three years after release.

I could see an argument for making an odal-shapped stage (diamond shaped stage that lets more people around it? Sure. Have the part where it goes to the backstage also be triangular to mirror the stage? Why not, symmetry is a thing for a reason) but it had the loving fins on it, and that was specifically a nazi addition to the rune as far as I can tell, and added literally no functionality to that stage.

Somewhere between 3 weeks and 3 months ago there was a cartoon where the premise was basically:

(News: Remote work more productive than office work)
Middle Managers: we have to open up/end COVID lockdowns!
Somebody Else: but why?
Middle Managers: or else they'll realize we're useless!

Does anyone remember that one well enough to find and link it?

“The uppity black woman is basically the same as a dog.”

I know “dog bites man” is shorthand for a predictable and uninteresting news story, so it could just mean that the Markle interview was overhyped, but it’s Lester so I take the most racist interpretation.

I talked to goons who do political stage work and one who knows Design Foundry. They are not a secret white supremacist company. It’s just a particularly cheap (all right angles), smaller scale version of the stages from past CPACs without the elevation changes.
