• The Republican Party Needs Millennials to Survive

  Nobody needs Millenials to survive. In five to ten years, a man who takes Aveed or something similar will still be reproductively laden – and a new generation of non-Millenial females will be reproductively fertile. As for political coalitions, young Amerikans have forever rejected the GOP. On first blush, most of the GOP should be rejected as disingenuous and verminous filth. Then these young people magically hit 25. They ask themselves what would happen to a nation that lived up to the morals and ideals of Edward Kennedy or Kamela Harris. The answer is today’s Venezuela.

  Then these not-so-young anymore people may still hate the GOP for good and logical reasons, but they need the GOP to survive. They hold their nose. They vote in the least reprehensible cuck. Everytime AOC opens her ignorant donkey-chompers, more and more young Amerikans realize they need the GOP whether it is an honorable and decent organization or not.

• Atlantic League coach ejected for arguing over automated strike zone just one inning into robot umpire era

  Frank Viola, a former big-league All-Star and the 1988 AL Cy Young Award winner, is now the pitching coach of the High Point Rockers. He was tossed on July 12 after objecting to the automated strike zone in the first inning of the first game since the robots were placed in charge, per Close Call Sports (hat tip to the Star Tribune). Viola wanted umpire Tim Detweiler to overrule some close calls. Detweiler declined, and things snowballed from there.
  

  Again, Pro Sports is an interesting laboratory that parallels real world issues and concerns. Some will say Frank Viola is an old Baseball Crank who just doesn’t like the new-fangled ump that will just stand there and say nothing when you go old-school Earl Weaver on his butt. But like Dave in 2001, he’s on the horns of a dilemna. Who ever successfully appealed versus an algorithm. Logic only works perfectly in a physics lab. There are some judgement calls in umping that software is famously bad at. There are judgement calls in everything that software lacks the hueristic to make properly. You really don’t want to be the poor, sorry bastard asking Hal if he’ll please open the pod-bay door.

• ‘Send Her Back’: The Bigoted Rallying Cry of Trump 2020

  On Wednesday night in North Carolina, Donald Trump agitated rally-goers with inflammatory rhetoric about Representative Ilhan Omar, a naturalized American born in Somalia, until his supporters began chanting “send her back”––as if a legal immigrant who became a U.S. citizen can or should be denied equal treatment under the law and extra-constitutionally deported by the president. Burning a copy of the U.S. Constitution would show no more contempt for it than the crowd’s bigoted, nativist reverie about tyrannically deposing an elected member of Congress. No opinion expressed by the congresswoman, no matter how wrongheaded, could excuse the un-American mob.
  

  Conner (((Friedersdorf))) understands why CivNat = suicide. He enjoys this. All you cucks out there now have your marching orders. You can have your proposition nation and its sacred and holy constitution. That, or you can have your demographic survival. You can’t have both and (((Friedersdorf))) has some not-so-subtle advice as to which he expects you to choose.

• Far Left Prepares To Throw Barack Obama Into The Dustbin Of History

  The mood of left-wing Democrats might be neatly summarized by the media coverage of last weekend’s Netroots Nation conference. The progressive left seems poised to consign former President Barack Obama to the dustbin of history. Moreover, supposedly woke agitators do not seem to care how their exercise might affect black voters who comprise a crucial part of their 2020 electoral strategy.
  According to Vox, “Progressive activists know their enemy in the 2020 Democratic primary: Joe Biden.” As Vox notes, “Some activists at Netroots conceded they would support Biden in a general election if they had no other choice.”
  

  What happens when a God fails? A smart group of followers will just quietly back away. They will fade into the background and pretend they never even heard of that particular Hale-Bopp Comet. Then, on the other end of the steelyard; we get the Nutroots Nation. With Former VP Joe Biden still (politically) above room temperature due to Obama Nostalgia, The Kossian Loons wonder how they can rid themselves of the last remaining vestige of The Obama Years and still keep the vast number Democrats who ID as Obama Democrats all aboard the crazy train.

• In Face Of Massive Border Crisis, Democrats Tell Americans Citizenship Means Nothing

  Sorry Cucks, but it ain’t just The Democrats. Leftists of both parties, the media and industry detest the people who live in this country. With a heavy sigh and much effort not to look overly constipated in the process, the typical elitist dickhead will tolerate a general issue, Red State Amurikan. They will tolerate these people if they keep their wallets open, their mouths shut and just consume whatever bullcrap symbolism that keeps the money and status machines churning in the elitists’ favor.

  Your citizenship means nothing in Amerika because in a decent nation; with a genuine love for its people, citizenship confers a level of power above the status of serf or slave. Citizenship, and the priveleges and benefits thereof, are the ultimate in checks and balances. Does either Jeff Bezos or Kamela Harris strike you as a big fan of voluntarily submitting to checks and balances that constrain the ego?

• In lopsided vote, House kills effort to impeach Trump

  The House voted on Wednesday to table a resolution from Rep. Al Green, D-Texas, to impeach President Donald Trump over racist comments he made about four Democratic congresswomen of color, effectively killing the measure. The vote — 332 to 95, with one lawmaker voting “present” — marked the first time the Democratic-controlled chamber had weighed in on impeachment, an issue that has created a widening schism within the party.
  

  A lot of Congressional Representatives understood the content of President Trump’s Tweets far better than NBC News. “America, love it or leave it” is not a racist sentiment. It can be seen as an offensive one, but as long as it applies equally to both Colin Kaepernick and the Lead Caterwaul of Moroon 5, it isn’t racist. Unless !RACIST! now means anything that chaps the rear end of a Progressive Bolshy Nose-Wipe. If we could impeach elected representatives over racial hatred directed towards brothers from some sort of different mother, Rep. Al Green and a good 2/3 of The Congressional Black Caucus would go off the end of the pier with an intertube and a fifth of gin.

• Ilhan Omar and Rashida Tlaib Introduce Radical BDS Resolution That Compares Israel to Nazi Germany and Imperialist Japan

  So having them send a boatload of shekles and an official apology for the USS Liberty just isn’t good enough. We have to wipe Israel off the map so that all the survivors can come over here and keep Rashida Talib company.

  BDS stands for the movement to boycott, divest from and sanction Israel. A visit to the BDS website (www.BDSmovement.net) quickly reveals that BDS has a far more radical goal: eliminating Israel as a Jewish state. This is not an exaggeration. This is something BDS leaders readily admit.
  

  It’s not a good enough resolution without the comparison to the !NAZIS! and !HITLER! Just because that’s so transgressive and edgy. I have full confidence that someone a lot like AOC will win the presidency and we will be like a lower income kindergarten with the coolest of nukes.

• Fed-up Puerto Ricans March Demanding Governor Ricardo Rosselló Resign

  Accompanied by some of Puerto Rico’s most famous performers, thousands of people marched to the governor’s residence in San Juan on Wednesday chanting demands for Gov. Ricardo Rosselló to resign after the leak of online chats that show him making misogynistic slurs and mocking his constituents. The crowd ranged from teenagers to retirees, with some waving the island’s flag printed in black and gray rather than red, white and blue to symbolize their discontent with a government they call corrupt and unresponsive to its people. Musicians Ricky Martin, Residente and Bad Bunny marched and addressed the crowd.
  

  I don’t think Breitbart was trying for chic irony. It just happened. Bad Bunny marches to demand change. It’s over Ricardo Rossello. Those slurs were misogynistic. No smart-aleky remarks about quaint old Massachussetes customs such as Witch-Burning will save you now. They’re a-hoppin’ on down The Badass Bunny Trail. You can hork the whole darn treasury and leave your citizens living in shacks, but don’t be a misogynist about it, Man.

  Democracy. It makes people pathetic.

• Black intellectuals

  As many of you know I spent a fair amount of time working in Africa, an experience which my wife claims transformed me from a liberal to a Nazi. Being in the technology field my interactions were largely with ‘the best and the brightest’ that those countries offered. Remarkably these people, though dispersed from South Africa to Ivory Coast, all demonstrated a number of common characteristics, characteristics which they even share with black ‘intellectuals’ in the West such as Michael Eric Dyson.
  

  The nouveau riche will never really reach the upper, upper class. The Outer Party never gets to kick it with the Inner One. They both sure try to act like it. It becomes immediately obvious. Black Intelectuals are no more intellectual than I’ll ever truly be. They don’t have the bona fides so they come off as ill-informed stuffed shirts. Nothing quite turns a liberal into a !NAZI! quite like having to put up with that sort of garbage.

• Augsburg, Germany: An African Migrant Who is Sexually Harassing Local Women in Street Cafe, is Disposed by Local Men

  This is what happens when civilians get forced to do the jobs that the proper authorities are too cowardly to perform. When they all start liking it and dressing in brown shirts, then democracy has blown it again and will just go die in a hole.

• Portland and the Evolution of Mob Rule

  How did Portland, roughly the size of Kansas City, become ground zero for Mad Max–type warfare, a place where woke vigilantes appear to run the show? The recent attack on Andy Ngo highlighted the power that mob groups, especially Antifa, currently hold in the city. Although the thugs who attacked the Quillette editor and photojournalist did not quite manage to crack his skull, they did manage to induce a brain hemorrhage that resulted in hospitalization. The irony here is that just before the group attacked Ngo, its members chanted, “No hate! No fear!” Obviously, Antifa group members struggle with the concept of irony. However, they don’t struggle with the concept of violence. When ideologically driven people come together, armed with weapons and agendas, violent outcomes are to be expected.
  

  Portland will be ruled by mob until the decent people move out. It will then turn into Honkey Mofo Detroit. When people act like stupid, violent knee-grows, then they might as well be stupid, violent knee-grows. Their outcomes will eventually be no better. It’s not all an HBD thing. If you think Puff Daddy is cool, then you will end up living off of the same EBT Card that most losers who worship Puff Daddy. Detroit went to hell after the riots of 1968. Portland will go there soon after ANTIFA ratchets it up to the next level.

• Trans Activist Sues Brazilian Wax Business after Owner Refused To Shave Her Balls

  You have no freedom as an entrepranuer unless you can turn business down when you find it dispicable. Nobody should have to serve a goddam freak. You should be able to shoot them if they don’t leave your property when asked to decamp politely. But no, in Canada she can tell you to shave DeezNuts.

  But a substantive question remained at the core of the raucous daylong hearing: should a business be allowed to deny service on the basis of gender identity?…At Wednesday’s hearing, Yaniv, who is representing herself, said she came upon a Facebook ad in spring 2018 offering a promotion for a Brazilian wax, which involves the removal of pubic hair around the groin. Da Silva testified she had just started her home-based business after previously performing waxes on family and friends. Yaniv was the first person to respond to her ad, she said. They agreed over text message to an afternoon appointment. But Yaniv testified that after identifying herself as transgender and sending Da Silva a selfie, Da Silva cancelled the session. Da Silva told the tribunal, “I have no problem with LGBT.” She said she was just not comfortable waxing male genitals. The idea also did not sit well with her husband, she said. Further, she didn’t have any experience doing it.
  

  At least poor Mrs. Da Silva didn’t have to lick them first. That’s a Human Rights issue for another day. I have a problem with LGBT. They get off on forcing their grossness down other people’s throat. I hate to argue that ISIS has a point, but there is a rooftop in Ninevah with a dry-diving lesson scheduled for this horribly muted Yaniv thing.

• Report: Google and Facebook Are Tracking Porn Viewing Habits

  The New York Times reports that a new study by researchers from Microsoft, Carnegie Mellon, and the University of Pennsylvania scanned 22,484 porn sites and discovered that they are riddled with tracking tools feeding data back to third party tech firms such as Facebook, Google, and Oracle. “Our results indicate tracking is endemic on pornography websites: 93% of pages leak user data to a third-party,” the study concludes. The study scanned the sites in March of 2018 and found that 74 percent of trackers came from Google or its subsidiaries, 24 percent came from Oracle and 10 percent came from Facebook.
  

  Ok. The porn industry is an awesome source of blackmail fodder. Faceberg, Google and the rest of Silicon Valley are power-obsessed and at war athwart all privacy. Academia chimes in and proves its utter stupid uselessness below.

  Elena Maris, a postdoctoral researcher at Microsoft and the study’s lead author, stated: “These porn sites need to think more about the data that they hold and how it’s just as sensitive as something like health information. Protecting this data is crucial to the safety of its visitors. And what we’ve seen suggests that these websites and platforms might not have thought all of this through like they should have.”
  

  No, Elena. Expecting porn sites to care about the reputation of their viewers is akin to expecting a pimp to make sure all his ladies had just the right health insurance plan. I’ve read worse stupidity on The Internet, I just have this naive concern when it comes from someone with a doctorate. I’m also concerned that crack and meth users are environmentally irresponsible when they dispose of used vials.

  At the end of the day, our current iteration of the Internet has become all about exerting power over society. What other reason would Oracle have for caring about who’s been crawling all over The Hun’s Yellow Pages?

• Why France’s forests are getting bigger

  Forests now cover 31% of France. In terms of area, it is the fourth most forested country in the EU, after Sweden, Finland and Spain. Since 1990, thanks to better protection as well as to a decline in farming, France’s overall wooded or forested areas have increased by nearly 7%. And France is far from being alone. Across the EU, between 1990 and 2015, the total forested and wooded area grew by 90,000 square kilometres—an area roughly the size of Portugal. Almost every country has seen its forests grow over the period.
  

  Reducing agricultural footprint is generally always good for the forests. Having more forests is good for the world. France, by reducing its acreage under cultivation over time, is allowing its natural forests to expand. I’ll take a break from my typical attitude of disdain and disrepect for Modern France. Instead, I’d like to see the US take a page from their playbook. Everytime a new tree grows an angel gets its wings. On this issue, Vive La France!

• Liberal’s Tweet Goes Viral: ‘White People Love Dogs Because They Miss Owning Slaves’

  Liberal Twitter-user Danielle (@ladypalerider) has a different explanation for people’s love for dogs, however. Wait. I should’ve written: for white people’s love for our canine comrades. According to her, “white people love dogs so much because deep down they miss owning slaves. They love the owner and master dynamic, desperate for something to control.”
  

  That must be it. I like petting dogs because I regret not getting to hit other human beings with a Cat O’ Nine-Tails. That totally explains it. I also would like to spend ridiculous amounts of money on Alpo, vetrinarians, and doggie shampoo because it is as close as I can get to the totally unworkable economics of the Madison County, AL cotton plantation. @ladypalerider just dropped the sickest burn. Maybe the fact that I don’t own a dog means that I don’t owe reparations even if Kamela Harris gets elected. Phew! I’m deeply relieved.

@ladypalerider – this one’s for you!
