[BLAZE] For a nation to survive, it must prefer its own culture, traditions, language, history, and folkways above any other. Liberalism strips all of that away.
The clash in Gaza has created a crisis of faith for many of those in the West who have dedicated themselves to the liberal project. While the actual conflict is centered many thousands of miles away, a mixture of ideological fanaticism and hubris has convinced most Western nations to import large populations who have carried their centuries-old feud into their new host countries.
[WIRE] One of the many remarkable things about activists who want to remake society, and invert every hierarchy that civilization has ever had in the name of "equity," is how aggressive and totally unflinching they are. They don’t ask permission, they just do it. And they do it in such great numbers, in so many different areas, that it’s impossible to even keep track of them. Even if you object to their project, as most people do, there’s no way to keep yourself fully informed about what’s happening, simply because of the scale of the whole operation.
Here’s a recap, which is nowhere near exhaustive. In just the last couple of months, we’ve learned that the LAPD is relaxing its standards for new officers in order to recruit fewer white males.
We’ve heard that the San Francisco school board will lower entrance requirements, and that the Regents Exam in New York will soon be optional for high school graduates. (As the New York Times put it, "The test had once been seen as a hallmark of academic rigor, but high-stakes graduation tests have fallen out of favor nationally.")
We’ve also been informed that the law school admission test, the LSAT, will drop its challenging "logic games" section, supposedly to help blind applicants.

Dare anyone to even mention the massive disconnection of black culture from traditional American standards, as a possible consideration as a partial motive for destroying meritocracy in business and government? If your need to dismiss competence in educational achievement as being "acting white", dismissing it as a form of alternative tribal pride, then you need to alter the standards of the prevailing culture to gain access to economic success with lesser skills and motivation.
Certainly, when standards appear to be discriminating, even when applied fairly, they must be lessened in order to avoid facing the cost of being outside traditional American culture and norms!

I believe it was Dale who pointed out car insurance is going to go through the roof with legal pot. Now, that stoner who collides with you will probably either be "unemployed" or "on disability." So, buy that expensive full-tort, uninsured driver policy.

If people with substance problems could have them without harming others, I'd say "all good."
But that's mostly not possible.

The 80's called and want D.A.R.E. back. The producers of Reefer Madness and the Ad Council smile at their success. Mellow drivers are the new obnoxious drunks who are going to kill everyone and drive insurance rates up. Oh mossomo, you just dont understand, they crossed modern marijuana with uranium which has resulted in nuclear pot - stuff is now out of this world. We have never seen marijuana like this before.
They are gonna crash my car. *shaking* The world is so dangerous with all these pot heads, if only they would stop hurting and harming everyone else.
Predatory Big Marijuana - cannot believed someone actually typed that. The authors magnus opus could be a story about the intersectionality of Human Trafficking and Marijuana. Pulitzer worthy, no doubt.
Just come to LA or San Francisco, rage boy. Newsom will let you have all the fentanyl you want and then you can sleep it off on the sidewalk.

I smelled the cheap Mexican pot in the 1970s and these days it's common to get a whiff of the new "super potent" marijoochi. Just yesterday I caught a whiff in a Home Depot parking lot. They don't have to be discreet about it anymore. They tell me it smells different than it did in the old days because now it's so much more potent. But I'm not sure it's just the potency. The way the new stuff smells makes me wonder if it's even the same drug.
Would Democrats do such a thing? I wouldn't put it past them.

It's been legal here for six years and hasn't been associated with any traffic disaster or something similar.
[ZH] At what appears to be a culturally enriched children’s birthday gathering in some American city — Chicago, possibly, or Atlanta; it doesn’t really matter because the "urban" culture has been synthesized and exported by the media machine from coast to coast — a pair of children, one apparently 7 or 8 in an Air Jordan t-shirt and the other looking not a day over 3 in an Air Jordan track suit, can be seen waving (fake) cash and (probably fake, but let’s not give the parents the benefit of the doubt) guns in the same manner that can be seen in damn near every rap video from the last twenty years. This is their culture. It's rayciss for whitey to draw any conclusions. Video at the link.

I would hesitate in calling Black Culture, Woke Culture. Two different things. They might overlap in some areas, but two distinct different things.
I would even hesitate in calling this Black Culture. I think it would be more appropriate to call it Black Inner City Culture, or Urban Black Culture. I know too many blacks who would look down on this. Other words, this is not universal in black culture.

Hey, suppose we replace all the air traffic controllers with AI chatbots? Forward into the Future!
Obviously safety is a concern, but the chatbots do not need to be perfect. They just need to kill fewer people than humans do. Besides as the system runs, it will accumulate training data from 'incidents'.
We will still need one human ATC to boot up the system, of course. Sure, you could have the janitor press the ON button, but you want a trained ATC professional for a job like that.
[Breitbart] Immigration detention centres in Australia have released dozens of foreign-born convicted criminals into the community after the High Court ruled indefinite detention unconstitutional. The bulk of those allowed to walk free have previously been refused visas on character grounds.
Australia’s left-wing Prime Minister Anthony Albanese left the country soon after the release for yet another overseas trip after conceding in Parliament no immediate plan existed to deal with the flood of criminals.
Under his current Labor government net overseas migration (NOM) into Australia continues to break all records.
Over the September quarter, there were 145,550 net permanent and long-term arrivals into Australia. This was a record for a September quarter and more than double the 69,640 that arrived in the same quarter of 2022.
Now more are being added to that number.
A paedophile who raped a 10-year-old boy, a hit man who blew up a pregnant woman with explosives and a sex predator who attacked elderly women are among the criminals allowed into the community, News.com.au reports.
All were released after the High Court ruled that indefinite immigration detention is unlawful where there is “no real prospect” that a person’s removal is “reasonably practicable in the foreseeable future.”
The court is yet to release the reasons behind its ruling last week that overturned a 2004 precedent that stateless people could be detained indefinitely.
[PJ] Like me, you may have read about Egypt not allowing Palestinian refugees to enter their nation as the Israeli military clown-slaps Hamas. You may also have assumed it was because the Egyptians — as well as others in the Muslim/Arab world — are happy to sacrifice Palestinian lives and blame it all on the Israeli Defensive Forces (IDF).
While I believe that is an added benefit to those who wish to destroy Israel, I've learned a few things as I was researching this article. One thing is that the Palestinians have pissed off a lot of countries in the Middle East over the years. Another is that the Palestinians have a decades-long love affair with Marxists — and who wants those clowns stinking up their nation, anyway?
The PLO was a project of the Soviet Union —Yasser Arafat and Mahmoud Abbas are only two of its leadership who were educated in Moscow. Hamas and the other Islamofascists appeared on the scene a generation later.
A multi-volume chronology and reference guide set detailing three years of the Mexican Drug War between 2010 and 2012.
Rantburg.com and borderlandbeat.com correspondent and author Chris Covert presents his first non-fiction work detailing
the drug and gang related violence in Mexico.
Chris gives us Mexican press dispatches of drug and gang war violence
over three years, presented in a multi volume set intended to chronicle the death, violence and mayhem which has
dominated Mexico for six years.
Rantburg was assembled from recycled algorithms in the United States of America. No
trees were destroyed in the production of this weblog. We did hurt some, though. Sorry.
