Vortex

From the New York Post:

"The universe is set to be destroyed in a “big rip” that will suck the whole of reality into a dreadful nightmarish vortex of nothingness."

See- the United States is just a step ahead of the pack.

It actually sounds restful after what we've been through.

I want to note that I received a disgusting, anti-Semitic post from Lev, which I of course will not publish, but which I will mention because he is a hateful human being.

Lev is a Jew who supports Israel with all his heart. I have no idea how you can possibly call someone like that an anti-Semite.

First Hans Adler, who's a Gentile, then Lev, who's a Jew. Both support Israel. Both are ardent Zionists.

I guess Zionism is anti-Semitic in your world. Please enlighten me.

Ezra, you didn't see what he said, so you don't know. I interpreted his remark as having a strong anti-Semitic overtone. And no, I am not going to promote such a thing by allowing it on my blog.

Ezra -

If it's the same thing Lev's been annoying me with, he's saying that the Trump election is good for Israel, and, thus, for the Jews. Be thankful you're not related to him. (Green Eagle - am I correct, or has he found something different to annoy you with?)

Lev is not motivated by anti-Semitism. However, as his past comments have shown, he adores the late Meir Kahane and, like most bigots, not the sharpest knife in the drawer. Lev wants Israel to be free of Arabs.

Let's just say there are people who think a Trump presidency would give Israel a good chance to get rid of Palestinians. Lev is one of them, which is why he's been gloating over Trump's election. There are no differences between Lev's position regarding Gentiles in Eretz Yisrael (as he describes it) and Stormfront's position regarding Jews in the United States. Hence the strong anti-Semitic overtones.

What Lev's been telling me isn't anti-Semitic, but I will agree with Green Eagle that it is ultra-disgusting.

Fair enough, Sam. Not an unreasonable way to put it. I do feel, however, that ascribing the beliefs of a small minority of Israelis to all Jews is as anti-Semitic as a lot of what is in the Protocols of the Elders of Zion. I've lived in Israel, as I have noted, and I believe only a tiny minority of them subscribe to the sort of racist world view that Trump holds. Yes, the unceasing Arab hostility has to some degree broken them, until they were willing to make the very poor choice to elect a horrible right wing leader, but anyone who thinks that furthering that leader's agenda is good for Israelis or Jews is horribly mistaken.

It's Okay, Never Mind

The woman in this picture, equipped with the weapons and ammunition shown, was found outside a National guard base. She is apparently a big Glenn Beck fan, and believed that the base was a FEMA concentration camp. Think she's the only one out there? You just know this sort of thing is not going to end well.

Wingnuts Slightly Annoyed about that $83 Million

Image
How can you look like a decrepit old geezer and an out of control two year old at the same time? I thought it might be nice to look in on wingnut world to see how they are taking yesterday's $83 million dollar Trump legal loss.  You kind of know that they will decide it shouldn't affect their opinion of him in any way, but it might be helpful to see just how the Republican party has trained them to reject any fact they don't like.  Not that surprisingly, a lot of the usual wingnut suspects didn't touch this loss at all, preferring to just ignore anything that interferes with their hateful daydreams, but here are a few excerpts from an article at Gateway Pundit, along with a sample of the hundreds of comments it received.  Enjoy.  Or not. "Trump attorney Alina Habba WENT OFF after the crooked New York City court slapped President Trump with an $83 million judgment for speaking out against the disgusting lies of a crazed woman who said he lured her into a Bergdorf Go

If a Tree Falls In the Woods

 And nobody hears it, is it really running for President at all? First of all, a note about my absence lately:  My wife got me to sign up for an account at Threads, which is sort of like X without the assholes.  I've spent a little time establishing myself there, and I have to say, I do like the relatively immediate exchange of views, but I don't mean to give up my blog- there are still so many things that can't be dealt with in a couple hundred words, so, perhaps to your dismay, I am back. So, what motivated the above question is the fact that the Sunday New York Times today had seven articles about Trump, and absolutely zero about Kamala Harris.   The Republicans have a problem with Harris, in that virtually everyone who sees her likes her and immediately understands how qualified she is to be President.  They have tried mightily the last month to find some way to smear her, but have been spectacularly unsuccessful- the tactics of character assassination that worked so we
