Cancel Kermit? Disney Slaps Insane Warning on 'The Muppet Show' - Louder With Crowder
Cancel Kermit? Disney Slaps Insane Warning on 'The Muppet Show' - Louder With Crowder:
This is the second dumbest decision Disney has made this week. Nothing has held on to a special place in my heart longer than the Muppets. My first time crying during a movie was when the gang was saying goodbye during The Muppets Take Manhattan. Quite frankly, I care about the Muppets more than I do most people. Finally, we were getting the classic "The Muppet Show" on a streaming service. But not without a warning. Because it's 2021, people are stupid, and an imbecile might complain on Twitter.

"During a recent interview with Oprah Winfrey, the 25-time Grammy-winner, 70, opened up about his future plans to live in Ghana indefinitely — as part of his efforts to shield his lineage of grandchildren and great grandchildren from racial injustice in the U.S.
...When asked if he plans to relocate permanently, the star replied, "I am, because I don't want to see my children's children's children have to say, 'Oh, please like me. Please respect me. Please know that I am important. Please value me.' What kinda [life is that]?"
The star's decision may be influenced by a number of reasons — but it is often said that living in majority Black regions gives Black individuals a sense of safety, confidence, liberation and pride...Read all.

The Woke ‘Model Minority’ Myth
"The North Thurston Public Schools in Lacey, Wash., made headlines in November when their “equity report” classified Asian-Americans along with whites instead of as “students of color.”
- For progressives, Asian-American achievement is an embarrassment.
Apparently the Asian-Americans were doing too well academically to be students of color.
...To normal Americans, it makes no sense.
How are Asian-Americans not “people of color”?
...these days the characterization of Asian-Americans as the “model minority” triggers the woke.
...“The end goal here is to pit people against each other as if our hyphenated identities are bigger than our common destiny as Americans.”
The principal reason for this is the fact of Asian-American achievement.
This is an embarrassment to progressives because it undermines the claim that structural racism dooms nonwhite citizens to the margins of the American dream...Read all!

Biden Blames 'Former Military, Former Police Officers' for Spurring 'Growth' of White Supremacy
"...Biden made the claim while appearing in a CNN town hall in Milwaukee, Wisconsin.
During the session, he was asked...about 
“ongoing threats to our country from Americans who embrace white supremacy and conspiracies that align with it. What can your administration do to address this complex and wide-ranging problem?”
...said Biden...“And the most dangerous people in America continue to exist. That is the greatest threat to terror in America: domestic terror.”
...“And so I would make sure that my Justice Department and the Civil Rights Division is focused heavily on those very folks. And I would make sure that we, in fact, focus on how to deal with the rise of white supremacy,” he said.
“And you see what’s happening — and the studies that are beginning to be done, maybe at your university as well — about the impact of former military, former police officers, on the growth of white supremacy in some of these groups,” he said...Read all.

"People scoff when indoctrination and reeducation camps are mentioned.
"Never happen here," they say (or think).
"People scoff when indoctrination and reeducation camps are mentioned.
- But the fact is, they already exist – they exist in things like the mandatory “anti-racism”/Critical Race Theory programs that are being implemented in businesses, schools, and government agencies, most as a condition of employment.
- They exist in media outlets like CNN, a cable network focused on nothing but taking Fox News off the air.
They know that real concentration or reeducation camps would require the internment of a physical body, and any attempt to do that on a mass scale would be met with significant resistance – most likely featuring violence.
They know who has the guns and ammo, that’s why Biden and Shelia Jackson Lee are working so hard to take them away from law abiding gun owners.

Why we need an inquiry into January 6 - The Spectator - news, politics, life & arts
Indeed, so quick was the construction of this narrative that the cynics among us speculated that the riot, if not exactly premeditated by anti-Trump forces, was at least foreseen as an exploitable possibility. Something similar can be said about the deployment of the phrase ‘our democracy’.
"...Democrats instantly seized upon the riot, elevated it into an ‘armed insurrection’, and bewailed the assault on ‘our democracy’.
In this case, the first-person-plural possessive is very clearly intended to be exclusive, not inclusive.
No one wearing a MAGA hat or waving a Trump banner is included in that ‘our’.
The thousands of loyalty-tested National Guard troops and the tall, razor-wire-tipped fence hastily erected to surround the Capitol communicated the same message.
It’s Us vs Them, comrade: talk about ‘unity’ and ‘our democracy’ but practice division and exclusion. Nancy Pelosi called the Capitol ‘the people’s house’, the ‘citadel of democracy’, but the armed troops and the fence bespoke a different reality...Read all!

Understanding Multiracial Whiteness And Trump Supporters : NPR
CRISTINA BELTRAN: Great. Thank you so much for having me.
NPR's Lulu Garcia-Navarro asks Cristina Beltran, professor of social and cultural analysis at New York University, about the phenomenon of "multi-racial whiteness."
LULU GARCIA-NAVARRO, HOST:
The chairman of the hate group The Proud Boys identifies as Afro-Cuban. One of the organizers of the pro-Trump extremist group Stop the Steal is Black and Arab. Christina Beltran is a professor of social and cultural analysis at New York University. And she uses the term multiracial whiteness to explain why some groups who are disdained by white supremacists embrace white power movements. And she joins us now to explain. Welcome to the program.
GARCIA-NAVARRO: So what do you mean by multiracial whiteness?
BELTRAN: So there's been a whole lot of people thinking and theorizing about white supremacy. And all of these scholars share a view that I share, that whiteness is not the same thing as white people and that whiteness is actually better understood as a political project that has emerged historically, and that is dynamic and that is always changing.
And so whiteness as an ideology is rooted in America's history of white supremacy - right? - which has to do with the legacy of slavery or Indigenous dispossession or Jim Crow...Read all... or don't.
