Rainbow Capitalism: Turning Pride into Profit and Trash
Behind the rainbow facade lies a calculated strategy to capitalize on a movement while conveniently forgetting about it the rest of the year.
Ah, June—the month when consumerism dons its rainbow cape and swoops in to save the day... or so they'd like you to believe. Welcome to the annual spectacle of aggressive marketing during Pride month, where the LGBTQ population unwittingly becomes a marketing officer's "wet dream," and big companies rake in millions while laughing all the way to July.…READ MORE…
A Great Week for Grassroots Conservatives in South Dakota
Shock waves were sent around the state as a number of incumbent state legislators were retired in favor of grassroots challengers, many of whom were new to politics.
Far too often we as American citizens, neglect the down-in-the-dirt work required to build. and maintain local and state party organizations. This is the thankless job that needs to be done in order to build out the political infrastructure to win regularly at the national level. Here is one story.…READ MORE…
The Big Gov-Big Tech War on Internet Providers
The vanishing number of unconnected - has only continued vanishing these last ten years. This ubiquitous success - was thanks entirely to our nation’s private sector Internet Service Providers (ISPs).
Nowhere in the history of humanity has Andrew Carnegie’s observation been more apt - than DC:
“The older I get the less I listen to what men say and the more I look at what they do.”
DC says they want everyone to have Internet access
Big Tech, of course, benefits hugely from everyone having Internet access.
Of course, just about everyone has already had high-speed Internet access - for about a decade.…READ MORE…
AOC warns Trump’s first term merely an ‘amuse-bouche’ to real intentions, worries he will throw her in jail
As Trump rises in the polls, their desperation grows. Unfortunately for them, voters are starting to catch on.
As the possibility of a second term for former President Donald Trump grows more likely by the day, Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) issued a dire warning to Americans: “It is unequivocal that if Donald Trump wins, we are looking at the potential dissolution of democracy in the United States of America.”
During a recent interview with New York Magazine’s Kara Swisher, Ocasio-Cortez went on to claim that although it “sounds nuts,” she “wouldn’t be surprised if this guy threw me in jail.” …READ MORE…
Parillo Examines Federalist 13-15
In Federalist 12-15, Hamilton and Madison once again return to limited government and great personal liberty.
In Federalist 13 Hamilton addresses the fact that government is a necessity but one that should be accomplished at minimum cost. This governmental burden, “civil lists” [1] in Hamilton’s words, can either be created by individual states, or by a single federal entity. Publius is concerned that it is the nature of government to grow and that, “Civil power, properly organized and exerted, is capable of diffusing its force to a very great extent; and can, in a manner, reproduce itself in every part of a great empire by a judicious arrangement of subordinate institutions.”
Here we see Hamilton’s acknowledgement of both the efficiency of a single government and the danger of its metastasizing. He goes on to point out that the natural confederacies that would result from a partition of the states would likely occur along the lines of those things that each region finds valuable. That likely partition would result in the requirement for several individual governments that would be even a greater burden on the people than a single entity. Returning to an earlier argument, Hamilton points out that each confederacy would require people to enforce trade regulations between them increasing the burden on the citizens, both from regulation and from the cost of government employees to manage that regulation.…READ MORE…
We All Saw This Coming
The sad reality is that we common people cannot do anything through the Congress or the Court System.
We all knew that Trump would be found guilty of being Trump, primarily for beating the bejesus out of Billary and that dessicated corpse stumbling around the White House. That’s his only crime, no matter what the parrots at MSM say a thousand times a day. He beat the Deep State puppets, and by golly, he has to pay. And all his supporters are being made to pay, too, and it is far from over.
No point in farm person like me trying to explain all these shenanigans; everyone knows the truth. What I want to know, is what are we going to do about it?…READ MORE…
Playing God: The 1996 (H5N1) Bird Flu and the Perils of Gain-of-Function Research
Gain-of-function research, for the uninitiated, is the scientific equivalent of poking a bear with a stick to see if it will maul you.
Ah, the 1996 bird flu (H5N1) – that delightful virus that scientists decided to toy with, transforming it from a natural pathogen into a high-stakes game of biological Russian roulette. This strain, which had the decency to stick to birds and spare humans, caught the curious eyes of researchers who thought, "Why not see if we can make this bad boy jump species?" And so began the grand adventure of gain-of-function research, a process that sounds suspiciously like a mad scientist's fever dream.
Gain-of-function research, for the uninitiated, is the scientific equivalent of poking a bear with a stick to see if it will maul you. Researchers tweak viruses to make them more transmissible or deadly, all in the name of understanding potential pandemics. It's like setting your house on fire to test the efficiency of your smoke detectors…READ MORE…
America United?
Rather than divide the nation by Red States versus Blue States, columnist Chuck Klein has a much more interesting proposal.
Recently, a U.S. Congressperson and a radio show political commentator have posited that America’s best chance of survival is to become two separate nations – red states and blue states. The problem is an almost equal number of democrats and republicans can be found in each state.
Therefore, the split might best be along ideological lines, i.e., Democrat cities and Republican counties. Call these combined municipalities: United Cities of America. Label the rest of the country: United Rural America.…READ MORE…
The Net Zero Scam
According to the Globalist narrative, if we don’t drastically act now, human beings will destroy the world with CO2.
“Net Zero.” That’s the plan put forth by Globalist tyrants pushing the false narrative of a “Climate Change Crisis.” “Net Zero” is supposed to mean that by the year 2030, just six years from now, human beings will be putting “zero” so-called “greenhouse gases” into the atmosphere. Because according to the Globalist narrative, if we don’t drastically act now, human beings will destroy the world with CO2. What a crock…READ MORE…
