When all other means fail
This blog is once more nourishing obscurity

Woke capitalism
The theme of this topic at Ammodotcom is in the url:
... but they’re quick to add:
This isn’t to say that there is a massive Gramscian conspiracy with thousands of members. Such a thing would be completely impossible to prove or disprove. However, the kernel of the idea has taken root, in part thanks to bona fide promotion in academia, and in part because it simply seems to have largely been a successful operation.
Yes and no. There is most certainly a huge push by the UN and EU and it has certain ideas embedded - one is the replacement of Europeans in Europe [remember, the above was written by an American so he's not completely au fait with this, though he has his own illegals issue over there], another is depopulation of those very non-Caucasians being herded in, plus the elderly, plus any other non-Aryan unproductives in their eyes, plus the corruption and sexual enslavement of children and I don't just mean the paedo cabal - I mean the twisting of kids' values in schools and colleges, plus the breakdown in parenting.

8. From Rossa's mother
It's an article from a Bank of Oklahoma attendee:
1. BOK Center holds at least 19,000. The area outside the convention center set up by the Secret Service and Tulsa PD had a U-shaped squeeze shoot to funnel the crowd down to an area about. 50 feet wide and 600 feet long with an outdoor stage adjacent to the BOK entrance.Trump was supposed to be able to speak to the overflow group from this stage.
2. Entry to the “Secure Area” NOT the BOK center was about 5 blocks away where you had to pass “screeners” who took your temperature, made you put on a face mask and gave you a green band to proceed to Secret Service Security.
3. If the temperature screeners left their post- the entire entry to the BOK Trump rally was shut down.
4. And that is EXACTLY what happened today about an hour after we got through security.
It's only words
Merriam-Webster, the venerable dictionary publisher, announced two weeks ago that it would update its definition of the word "racism" in response to a request by a 22-year-old woman from Missouri.
But company officials hastened to say that they would do so in line with their long-standing commitment to political neutrality and to the "real-world usage of a word," rather than trying to "promote any particular viewpoint". In other words, there would be no slant, no bias, no subtle editorialising in the revised definition.
That's what Merriam-Webster is trying for with all the words in its dictionary. But it's not always easy. Going back centuries, there have been disputes about bias in dictionary definitions. And in today's politicised world - where the recent trending words in Merriam-Webster online searches have included "fascism," "antifa," "loot," "defund," "no quarter," "white supremacist," "curfew" and "anarchy" - how could the company not feel battered, like the rest of us, by the bitter differences of opinion that divide the country?
