SO MANY ECO-TYPES TURN (OFTEN JUSTIFIED) SELF-HATRED INTO HATRED OF HUMANITY:

Instapundit--SO MANY ECO-TYPES TURN (OFTEN JUSTIFIED) SELF-HATRED INTO HATRED OF HUMANITY:

“People are awful; these beautiful creatures have a right to thrive in their habitats. Seriously, the planet didn’t need 8 billion people.”

Related: Loving monsters. 

“The effort to remake the world so that it is safe for predators seems rather odd to me.
What sort of person would rather be prey? 

The sort who lives in upscale neighborhoods, and campaigns against hunting, apparently. 

I suspect that over the long term this isn’t a viable evolutionary strategy in a world where predators abound.”--Posted by Glenn Reynolds

FBI Used Twitter To Censor, But Emails From The Latest Twitter Files Reveal That They Also Used Google, Facebook, Yahoo, Wikimedia And Reddit (Screenshots)

FBI Used Twitter To Censor, But Emails From The Latest Twitter Files Reveal That They Also Used Google, Facebook, Yahoo, Wikimedia And Reddit (Screenshots) - By Kellyanne Richardson
"...This latest round features how deeply the FBI, DHS, state governments, and others were involved in what was and wasn’t allowed on the social media platform. 

Most of the focus is on the FBI.

• Something that stood out to me in that email: was 100% confirmation that FB was also involved the same as Twitter. 
• And why were they meeting with the OH Sec of State media director?

Close-up image:

• The FBI had 80 agents colluding with Twitter to censor Americans.

Just imagine what the FBI is doing with Facebook (Twitter x 10) & Google (Twitter x 25)...

More rules, less freedom.

 

'Eco-conscious' Google data center gobbled up nearly 300 million gallons of Oregon city's water amid droughts, tried to keep it secret - TheBlaze

'Eco-conscious' Google data center gobbled up nearly 300 million gallons of Oregon city's water amid droughts, tried to keep it secret - TheBlaze: 

Google says it seeks to "foster sustainability at scale" and to reduce the "environmental impact" of its operations. The tech giant also claims to provide "critical information ... in moments of crisis." When the residents of The Dalles, Oregon, attempted to figure out precisely how much of their water was being used by the local Google data center amid a drought affecting over 540,000 residents in the state, the city sued on the company's behalf to keep the amount a secret.

A corrupt political weapon of the left!-----The CDC Buried a Study That Conflicted With the Left's Gun Control Narrative

The CDC Buried a Study That Conflicted With the Left's Gun Control Narrative

"...Before the pandemic, most of us probably assumed that the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) was a competent and apolitical institution. 

How wrong we were.
But the CDC’s bias extends far beyond pushing the “right” COVID-19 narrative, and it has established itself as a left-leaning bureaucracy masquerading as a health organization. 

• The latest proof of this was the recent decision to remove all references to a study it had commissioned on gun control because of complaints from gun control supporters that the study undermined their preferred narrative...

Dr. Fauci complains about 'untruths' in society, but exposes his sleight of hand in the process - TheBlaze

Dr. Fauci complains about 'untruths' in society, but exposes his sleight of hand in the process - TheBlaze: 

By couching his criticism in the context of "anti-science," "misinformation," and "disinformation," Fauci's rhetorical sleight of hand is clear. What he means by "untruths" is any perspective that contradicts his definition of "truth" or the definition as established by those who hold the power in society, in this case elite institutions and the federal government. After all, "truth" was notoriously flexible during the COVID-19 pandemic.

PETER HITCHENS: Britain is slowly turning into a version of the mad old East Germany | Daily Mail Online

• PETER HITCHENS: Britain is slowly turning into a version of the mad old East Germany, with equality and diversity the new Marxism... even worse, it's happening under the Tories

"...here in supposedly Conservative Britain, where, as a new report has revealed this week, huge amounts of money and effort are spent on drilling public sector workers in the Left-wing ideology of 'Equality, Diversity and Inclusion'.

• ...One of the main features of the old Communist states was exactly this — the incessant propaganda. From kindergarten upwards, then in the youth movements and in the schools — and finally in the workplace — the message of Marxism was hammered home, often by teachers who did not believe it themselves but wanted to keep their jobs.

Their pupils mostly did not believe it either...

Two antithetical billionaires - Victor Davis Hanson

Two antithetical billionaires - Victor Davis Hanson

"...SBF may have been a sloppy, immature fool, but he was no dummy.
He had learned early on that loud leftist talk, big promises of philanthropy, and huge cash infusions to the media and leftist candidates – all under the veneer of "effective altruism" – ensured de facto immunity for his Ponzi schemes from both bad press and government investigation....

• In contrast, consider how the Left now despises Elon Musk as much as it once worshiped Sam Bankman-Fried.

...Musk's mortal sin was not just buying the money-losing Twitter and reinventing it as a free-speech platform...
Musk's crime was far worse.
First, was the sin of betrayal. 

A month ago, all those Teslas on the streets of Palo Alto, Austin, and Cambridge were virtue-signaling proof of green moral superiority. 

Then suddenly, these still wonderful cars are seen as fuel for the prince of darkness...

• The hatred of the accomplished Musk and the worship of the hollow man Bankman-Fried are sad commentaries on how liberalism has descended into progressivism and ultimately into Stalinism.

Biden administration boating proposal would be 'greatest regulatory overreach' of its kind, critics warn | Fox News

Biden administration boating proposal would be 'greatest regulatory overreach' of its kind, critics warn | Fox News: 

"This would be the greatest regulatory overreach in American maritime law" — that’s how Frank Hugelmeyer describes a proposal by the Biden administration to limit the speed of all motorboats over 35 feet from Florida to Massachusetts. "Not only are they creating a serious safety issue, they are creating a massive negative economic impact."

Hugelmeyer is president of the National Marine Manufacturers Association (NMMA), and he is just one of a growing number of voices expressing outrage over the proposal put forward by the U.S. Commerce Department under the auspices of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA).

"It’s stupid," said Jeff Angers, the president of the Center for Sportfishing Policy. "It’s not what government is supposed to do."

Son of Paul Pelosi Attacker Just Torched the Liberal Media's Narrative About the Assault - Matt Vespa 

"...For starters, DePape is an illegal alien who suffers from mental illness—he tried to buy a birdhouse for a fairy he was in contact with daily...paraphernalia at his alleged home, which was decorated with ANTIFA, BLM, and gay pride flags. 

• Over at PJ Media, DePape’s son described his father as a progressive and Green Party supporter 
• ...19-year-old Nebosvod ‘Sky’ Gonzalez, DePape’s biological son, spoke with The Daily Mail....“My father had progressive views, he believed in human rights, equality, and justice. He was against the war, he was a peace activist, hardly a right-wing conservative as he has been branded.”

Is he controlled by forces that hate America?
