Kamala Harris embodies the dangerous fusion of power and pragmatism, a force that undermines the very essence of individual liberty. Her policies are rooted in the premise that the state, not the individual, is the rightful arbiter of success and morality. Harris advocates for expansive government control, from economic redistribution to the regulation of speech and personal choice, all in the name of equality. But equality under compulsion is not justice—it is the negation of the individual mind, the sacrifice of the achiever to the collective. In her worldview, success is suspect, and power is a tool to reshape society into the image of bureaucratic whim. Such a leader is a threat to freedom, for she exalts force over reason, and the collective over the sovereign individual.

The Dangers of Modern Monetary Theory Explained
Modern Monetary Theory (MMT) is the quintessential embodiment of collectivist delusion. It arrogantly assumes that wealth can be conjured from the ether by the mere printing of paper, disregarding the fundamental law of nature: that value must be created by productive effort. MMT is the attempt to sever money from its true purpose—serving as a medium of exchange for goods earned through individual labor and enterprise. In the hands of the state, MMT becomes a weapon of force, allowing bureaucrats to siphon wealth from the industrious to finance the failures of those who would live at others’ expense. It is the destruction of the mind and the reward of mediocrity—a path to the erosion of freedom and the triumph of the parasite over the producer.

If you like a centralized, reversible, censorable, seizable, non-pseudo-anonymous, inflationary currency who’s value is set by the whim of people, then the digital dollar is what you want.

Toyota supports fascists and authoritarians
It appears that Toyota is now on the side of the fascist and authoritarians (socialist, communist etc). Injecting themselves into the politics of not donating to Republicans who voted against the election certification.
I don’t recall them doing that in 2016 when the Democrats voted against more state certifications than republicans did in 2020.
So much for Toyota standing up for liberty.
the Hitler method has always been aimed at a little move here and a little move there – FDR
“I think a study of the map would be advisable for all of us because the Hitler method has always been aimed at a little move here and a little move there” – Franklin D. Roosevelt to reporters,
It is somewhat funny to hear FDR say that, because it is the same philosophy he was using with regard to accumulating power. A little more here and a little more there and pretty soon you go from a country with a Constitution that has enumerated the powers of the government to one where you have enumerated liberties.
So I think a study of the Constitution and historical documents would be advisable for all of us because the collectivist authoritarian method has always been aimed at a little move here and a little move there and pretty soon you are no longer in a free country, but a dictatorship, surveillance state.
Hate speech Is used to Shut You up
“Hate speech” is a term used by fascists, socialists, communists and other authoritarians to shut people up – when they can’t win an argument that involves liberty vs control, they want people to be shutdown and shut up. It is a slippery, subjective concept that allows those defining it to silence those with whom they disagree.
Always look to see who the arbiter of what is “hate speech” and you’ll see who will benefit from it in terms of wealth and power.
Disgusting.
Bucknell professor wishes death on rush limbaugh
A letter to Bucknell President Bravman:
Dear President Bravman,
I am completely disgusted to read that “A professor at Bucknell University tweeted out last week that he wished death on Rush Limbaugh,”(https://www.thecollegefix.com/professor-wishes-death-on-rush-limbaugh-attacks-republicans-on-social-media/ ) particularly after insinuating that a US House of Representatives member should be hanged last year.
First as an alumni, seeing Bucknell’s name in the context of Michael Drexler wishing death on someone in a news article that is circulated worldwide is deeply disturbing. Does anyone, let alone a professional, want to have their alma mater brought up in such a manner? Does Bucknell have plans to prevent such events in the future? Do professors have any standards that they must follow, like morality clauses in professional athlete contracts, so as to avoid painting the University in a bad light? When you see patterns of public behavior of a person wishing death on people, there should be a concern on how it reflects upon the institution and professors should, frankly, have better judgement than to do so without the need of contract terms.
A second concern is, of course, about current students and faculty at Bucknell. If someone is publicly wishing death to at least several people, I would be concerned about their stability as it relates to on-campus violence against people with whom Drexler disagrees whether they are students, faculty, administrators, or even alumni. What is Bucknell doing in order to promote a safe campus environment that is open to viewpoints, particularly those that are anti-fascist, anti-communist, anti-socialist, – in short anti-authoritarian – and pro-liberty? I am concerned that someone wishing death on people and publicly calling Professor Riley (no relation) a “white supremacist skinhead” (from the article) might be temperamentally unfit to be educating students safely.
I have to say that during my four years at Bucknell, not only did none of my professors ever wish death upon anyone or call students or other professors names, neither did the swim coaches, administrators, staff or anyone else with whom I interacted. The head swim coach (Dick Russell) insisted that when we went to swim meets, both home and away, we “look neat and clean” (nice shirt, (often) ties, no scruffiness) because we were “representing Bucknell”. Professors today should have as much sense as he did. Which leads to my next question.
How lax are the current hiring standards that Bucknell is hiring and promoting to tenured professor people who are immature and immorally evil that they would wish death on someone in a public forum where they are associated with Bucknell? Does Bucknell do anything to promote tolerance among faculty members and promote mental health of faculty members who are advocating violence among sitting members of Congress, calling other faculty members vile names and wishing death on public figures?
Seeing some of the anti-free speech protests on campus recently makes me concerned about the direction the University has taken, but I do commend the school for standing up for free speech such as allowing Heather Mac Donald to speak last year.
A University should be about civil discourse, not vile names, threats and the like whether or not you disagree with someone or not.
Thanks,
If we lose freedom here, there is no place to escape to. This is the last stand on earth. Reagan
What is disgusting is that when Reagan said “If we lose freedom here, there is no place to escape to. This is the last stand on earth.”, the US was #1 in freedom around the world, last year the US was #17th! (Or 18th depending on which you follow). A very sad state of affairs. The Founders would be disgusted.
