Weapons Of Mass Distraction (Reason For The Season 2025, Seven.)

 [Reporter Richard Thornburg seeks a different seat aboard the NEA plane]

Richard Thornburg: You cannot put me near that woman.

Flight Attendant: Excuse me?

Holly Gennaro-McClane: He means he's filed a restraining order against me. I'm not allowed within 50 feet of him.

Thornburg: Fifty yards. So, by keeping me in this section, you are violating a court order. I can sue you and this airline. That woman assaulted me and she humiliated me in public.

Flight Attendant: [to Holly] What did you do?

Holly: Knocked out two of his teeth.

Flight Attendant: Would you like some champagne? 

~From the film Die Hard 2: Die Harder.

...

And it came to pass in those days, that there went out a decree from Caesar Augustus that all the world should be taxed. (And this taxing was first made when Cyrenius was governor of Syria.) And all went to be taxed, every one into his own city. And Joseph also went up from Galilee, out of the city of Nazareth, into Judaea, unto the city of David, which is called Bethlehem; (because he was of the house and lineage of David:) To be taxed with Mary his espoused wife, being great with child. And so it was, that, while they were there, the days were accomplished that she should be delivered.

And she brought forth her firstborn son, and wrapped him in swaddling clothes, and laid him in a manger; because there was no room for them in the inn. And there were in the same country shepherds abiding in the field, keeping watch over their flock by night. And, lo, the angel of the Lord came upon them, and the glory of the Lord shone round about them: and they were sore afraid. And the angel said unto them, Fear not: for, behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people.
For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Savior, which is Christ the Lord.
And this shall be a sign unto you; Ye shall find the babe wrapped in swaddling clothes, lying in a manger. And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God, and saying, Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men. ~Luke 2:1-14

If we lose freedom here, there is no place to escape to. This is the last stand on Earth. And this idea that government is beholden to the people, that it has no other source of power except to sovereign people, is still the newest and most unique idea in all the long history of man's relation to man. This is the issue of this election. Whether we believe in our capacity for self-government or whether we abandon the American revolution and confess that a little intellectual elite in a far-distant capital can plan our lives for us better than we can plan them ourselves. ~Ronald Reagan

I saw this earlier, but at the time I was already ass deep in my last post.

Fox News is hyping Sydney Sweeny because vapid airhead.

And of course they're on their annual War On Christmas bullshit again.

Because Republican partisanship is the Reason For The Season or something, of course in the minds of These Fucking People it's why they do everything else, too.

Meanwhile anybody in America with a good heart who's trying to do the work gets fucked over.

I'm tired of this shit.

I'm assuming as much as anything else it's their, their audience's and the media's (in general) preference for stupid immature high school bullshit over anything that's actually happening, have to distract the masses and prevent anybody possible from thinking too deeply before these motherfuckers end up with a Revolution on their hands.

And we're about to get every possible angle that nobody needed or wanted on the OU Samantha Fulnecky scandal, aren't we??

There was a time this young lady would have been blackballed by Conservatives for not doing the work and she'd be looking at a future as a conservative Christian housewife if she was lucky, or a full-time McDonald's employee if she wasn't and that would've been that and nobody would've given a damn.

Because American conservatives (note the small "c" in this instance for a reason) in particular, and American society in general had standards.

Nowadays she'll be the belle of the goddamn ball and it doesn't matter what polite society, professional ethics or what's left of actual conservatism blackball her from, she's got a "career" as an "Influencer" pretty much locked in no matter what the fuck happens or what she does.

At least until she says something that's not "Right-Wing" enough for the Borg.

Think about that, for a second.

That's not a tightrope I'd wanna walk, personally, but then I have a brain in my head.

Meanwhile, Russia is threatening the (NATO member) Baltic States and Moldova again.

Think about that for a second too.

Because if that happens, no matter what, we get attacked too.

Especially now that the Russians know a third of America will basically surrender automatically.

The temptation to kick over this house of cards will likely be too great to resist.

Because sure, they know roughly half to two-thirds of America would rise up to fight them, certainly including much of the military.

But they also know a quarter to a third of us, very likely including Big Money and certainly most of Movement Conservatism and a hell of a lot of the cops and shit would rise up to fight on their side.

And with division rather than cohesion, they figure they might have a chance.

Hell, even if they don't, the Russian oligarchy and their various lackeys around the world certainly see it as the worst case scenario is they just lose a couple million more peasants.

Will the media look up from platforming Erika Kirk or some other dumbass shit when there's a fucking firefight between the New York Army National Guard and Russian SPETSNAZ right out front of their headquarters on 57th Street in NYC?? When their anchors and reporters are stepping on broken glass and around blood and bodies in the streets?

I'd guess, they will...but we'll only hear about it if the ratings on reporting that are higher.

We'll hear endlessly about it if the wrong person's car gets blown up with an AT4 or an RPG, that's for sure. 

The car getting blown up, that is, not the actual wars. civil and otherwise, that this scenario suggests.

And we sure as hell won't hear about the bullet holes in Juan the janitor's pickup truck although somebody might to a quick bit on the Nuyorican city-councilwoman who's toting an M4 Carbine to work.

1980's and early 1990's movies and TV weren't hard enough by half on these vapid goddamn jackals.

And the sick thing is, motherfuckers like Chris Rufo would absolutely welcome the Russians with open arms and actively try to betray, frustrate or imperil those of us defending America if they thought it'd get them a chance to discriminate against whoever they damned well pleased. But Chris ain't ethnic Russian and probably doesn't speak the language, so he's next.

Not that he even cares.

As long as he gets to fuck over somebody else first.

Because that's all that matters to him.

"Ph'nglui mglw'nafh Cthulhu R'lyeh wgah'nagl fhtagn." (In his house at R'lyeh dead Cthulhu waits dreaming)

Who Will Be Eaten First?!

Because that really is the whole point to these goddamn Chuds.

Relative status, who will be eaten first? They've been told they get to have their boot on somebody else's throat before they too die a horrible death and they're goat-eager to try it and got more wood than a forest of California redwoods.

And I don't see anybody in TV media reporting on that.

I'm fucking tired of it.

And I'm tired of the media that keeps cheering this shit on as long as they get to report on it and profit from it when all this crap results in blood in the streets.

Weapons Of Mass Distraction are gonna kill more people than anybody with nuclear weapons ever thought about killing if this isn't stopped.

Hell, if you ever wondered how a civilization could kill the Two Witnesses of Revelation or blithely ignore God's judgment raining down (literally) you're looking at it!

You either believe in freedom or you don't.

And you're either willing to fight for it, or you're not.

Tell me, what good is Christmas if you don't have the freedom to enjoy it??

Слава Україна!

We shall abolish the orgasm. Our neurologists are at work upon it now. There will be no loyalty, except loyalty towards the Party. There will be no love, except the love of Big Brother. There will be no laughter, except the laugh of triumph over a defeated enemy. There will be no art, no literature, no science. When we are omnipotent we shall have no more need of science. There will be no distinction between beauty and ugliness. ~George Orwell, 1984

[Cassian plays Nemik's audio diary]

Karis Nemik: There will be times when the struggle seems impossible. I know this already. Alone, unsure, dwarfed by the scale of the enemy. Remember this. Freedom is a pure idea. It occurs spontaneously and without instruction. Random acts of insurrection are occurring constantly throughout the galaxy. There are whole armies, battalions that have no idea that they've already enlisted in the cause. Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward. And then remember this. The Imperial need for control is so desperate because it is so unnatural. Tyranny requires constant effort. It breaks, it leaks. Authority is brittle. Oppression is the mask of fear. Remember that. And know this, the day will come when all these skirmishes and battles, these moments of defiance will have flooded the banks of the Empire's authority and then there will be one too many. One single thing will break the siege. Remember this. Try. ~From the Star Wars series Andor, S1.E12 "Rix Road."
