I didn’t number yesterday’s post about the chink flu pandemic. My apologies.
Today’s post is about the religion of social justice.
There is a video too.

Day 93 of the Kung Flu Lockdown
Sunday, June 14th, 2020Watch This
Saturday, June 13th, 2020There’s a whole series of them.
You can hopefully see why I don’t trust anything we are told.
The View from the Right
Saturday, June 13th, 2020An old and now defunct blog. The late Lawrence Auster was a brilliant writer.
Go read this post on his First Law of Majority-Minority Relations in Liberal Society.
Day 91 of The Great Pandemic of 2020
Saturday, June 13th, 2020This post is late. This happens when you work around the house all day and then have a couple of drinks with a lateish dinner.
The election season is going to be interesting.
I think it will be Trump by a wide margin. Unless the Dems find a replacement for Biden. I would like to point you to this previous post of mine: Biden on His Aneurysm. If that Joe Biden were in the race, Trump might be in trouble. But that video is 7 years old and that Biden doesn’t exist anymore. I think it is horrible that the Dems are running Bernie (and no… not Bernie Sanders) for President.
Also was pointed at this article about nursing home death data by the No Agenda Podcast. Another point in the series of points we have all come across where the data is wrong. Nobody knows anything.
Had my drinks at Milo’s. No body there seems very concerned about the virus. Where we had dinner Thursday night there were way too many people that were overly concerned about the virus. The difference in atmosphere between the two places is stark.
Day 90 of the Wu Flu Hysteria
Thursday, June 11th, 2020We went out for dinner. While the food was good, the place wasn’t even pretending that they want to be open beyond their obligation for not paying back their PPP loan.
Things are going to be effed up for a while.
Day 89 of Mass Hysteria on Two Fronts Now
Wednesday, June 10th, 2020Yes… we are living through two mass hysteria events at this time.
I really can’t stand the media in all of its forms and coalitions. Someone says something stupid on the left and the usual suspects on the right will come out and challenge that statement with more stupidity. Witness the controversy of the National Anthem at sportsball events.
Hot Air, while jumping in predictably on the side of current tradition and serving as the foil for the dipshit at Touchdown Wire (all part of the business model for both outlets), does get this half right. The knucklehead quoted over there talks about the need to stop playing the anthem at games because TIMES HAVE CHANGED!!!!!. What crap. The part Hot Air gets correct is that the players themselves now like the Anthem before the game as it gives them a stage upon which to signal their virtue.
But what Hot Air gets wrong is that playing the Anthem before a stupid sportsball game trivializes the Anthem. Those games, while entertaining, are unimportant. I have long held this position. I’m a veteran. I’m also the guy that started the STARS! yell during the national anthem at Dallas Stars games back in their first season here in Dallas.
Save playing the anthem for important events. Like a veteran’s funeral. Or the inauguration of a President. Don’t play it every Friday night before a HS sportsball game.
I will also point out this quote from the Touchdown Wire post:
And a case that has seen four Minneapolis police officers charged in the alleged murder of George Floyd has sparked peaceful protests in pursuit of change that has brought together people young, old and of all races. A multicultural revolution.
My bold… It is as though people in the media think that if they repeat the phrase “peaceful protest” often enough that I will no longer believe what I’m seeing with my own eyes. The disdain they have for their audience is amazing. Using the phrase “peaceful protest” in that post makes me think that everything else there is wrong too. Including all names and dates.
The 88th Day of Winnie the Flu Wrecking the Economy
Tuesday, June 9th, 2020I’m ignoring the riots on purpose.
I have nothing to add.
It was a rough day around the White Rock Kitchens estate. I am just now, late in the evening starting to feel normal. The only work I got done today was fixing the planters on the new deck and also fixing one of my nail guns.
I also straightened up some in the fermentorium.
Tomorrow should be more productive and better.
The mask wearing continues to be ridiculous. People are sheep.
Day 87 of Fu Man Flu House Arrest
Monday, June 8th, 2020Things are loosening up, but still weird. Restaurant workers are wearing masks. It is obvious that masks make things worse in restaurants and other customer service positions.
Some stuff about politics:
Here’s the lie in the media’s defense of their protest two-step
We are living under the tyranny of experts that never ever suffer consequences for being wrong.
Second Post for Day 86 of Kung Flu House Arrest
Sunday, June 7th, 2020New readers (One? Two?) of this blog might like to know where my antipathy toward government comes from. Mostly I recognize government as nothing more than Stationary Bandits. Once you get past National Defense and, say here in the U.S., broad civil rights protection what other really legitimate purpose does the national government have? I can’t think of much. Many people will talk about the money supply. They’ll mention Social Security, etc. They will name their favorite programs. None of them are really necessary. If they didn’t exist life would be different. I’m not saying better, just different.
The way our Constitution contemplated government it would be a group of 50 states doing what they wanted to do only limited by the Constitution. Each state could design a different set of policies. Policies that met the demands and desires of their respective citizens.
I am also, given current events, befuddled by those that think we need more government.
Here is my thought on more government:
We have given our government a supposed monopoly on violence. Government is violence. If you do not obey the government (In most cases… current looting is apparently excepted) eventually violence will befall you. This is what happened to the current Martyr of our government led racial unrest. Don’t expect government to fix what government uses to its advantage.
By the way, the Minneapolis Police policy manual on the use of force specifically allows for the knee on the neck we all have seen (look for paragraph 5-311). I’m fairly confident that cop will get convicted, but I don’t think he would with a fair trial. He’s not going to get a fair trail.
The 86th Day of House Arrest due to Kung Flu
Sunday, June 7th, 2020The media where many of my friends and relatives get most of their information that they use to argue with me on this pandemic nonsense is arguably owned by the Chinese and the Pharmaceutical Industry. They will not publish or broadcast information unfavorable to the CCP or vaccines.
Fully 70% of television news revenue comes from Pharmaceutical companies in non-election years.
Disney owns ABC. Disney wants to sell movie tickets in China. They also want to have amusement parks in China. They will do what the CCP tells them to do in order to make those sales. This includes controlling what is on the nightly news broadcast.
The sames is true for Comcast and National Amusements.
Nothing the big media companies broadcast or print is correct or complete.
Look at how the NBA folded in the face of the CCP. Many NBA players clearly have no problem with slave labor as long as it’s over there.
We live in interesting times.
