Did I Miss a Meeting?

Bitter Cruzinger, Dana Loesch, says Trump supporters have done something with "rape fetishes." 

Did I miss a meeting? 

What have we "done" with rape fetishes?  Whatever it is we did, Dana is none too happy about it.

This is the kind of crap we can expect from the liberals during the general election campaigns.  Dana and her fellow Bitter Cruzingers are helping us prepare, and they should get all the some credit when Trump mops the floor with Hillary in November.

Did you get the memo?

Tuesday Afternoon Cigar

I selected a Romeo today.

Always reading:

1) I'm 2/3 done with The 900 Days,

Over 11,000 died in Leningrad in November 1941, when the starvation began.

2) Fred has a good article: Betting on Gray Sludge: What Fun,

"I do not see how the rot can go on but neither can I see how it can stop going on. Consider the choices..."

3) And SHTF has an interesting post: How Do You Know When Your Society is in the Midst of Collapse?

"America is sitting near the end of the spectrum in terms of economic collapse and in the middle of the spectrum in terms of social collapse."

Cuba Visit - Pic Dump

 

Our dear leader went down to Cuba to visit their dear leader this week.  The conservative photoshoppers and cartoonists went to work.  Here are some of the better images I've seen in the past two days:

And the best of them all:



UPDATED 3.23.16 10am:

Breitbart has an excellent summary video of Obama's trip to Cuba.  One minute.

Brussels

34 dead today in Brussels.

We knew it was coming.  The Europeans have invited this.

So maybe this is too soon, but here are some images (DailyMail) that bother me more than the fact that people are killed after allowing unlimited muslim immigration into their countries.

Can someone please tell me WTF?

 

Comrade Matt Bracken shared these on FB:

 

UPDATED 3.22.16 Noon:

FB Comrade Bracken linked to this Robert Spencer article at FrontPage, War in Europe:

This morning, as a result of these policies, Brussels is engulfed in chaos and the grief of blood shed in war. There will be much, much more to come of this.

It is time to sweep them out. All of them: the multiculturalists, the cultural relativists, the internationalists, the levellers, the elites who have brought this death and destruction upon Brussels today, and Paris yesterday, and the rest of Europe tomorrow. Europe, if it is to survive as a home of free people, must turn out its entire political and media establishment.

If you haven't read Bracken's Tet, Take Two, you can do so here.

And FB Comrade Ellis reminds us of a protest at the same airport back in 2004.

I seem to recall that back in 2014, BDS (Boycott, Divestment and Sanction) protesters in Brussels, poured red paint/fake blood at the terminal in Brussels to symbolize Israelis killing Muslims. Today at the same exact location and 2 other locations, REAL blood was spilled and so far over 35 are dead with 100 badly wounded. The perpetrator was a radical Muslim extremist, yet you won't see these leftist fascists, crying over that spilled blood or any blood in Syria that ISIS spills, nope, these hypocrites only cry over terrorists blood as they recreate fake scenes of blood and Israeli soldiers killing babies, but they will never recreate REAL scenes, like the carnage at the airport and metro today. Shame on these liars and professional agitators. All they do is embolden terrorists to commit more murder. So next time they spill fake blood they should dip their hands in as well, because the blood is on their hands! 

Agree.

UPDATED 3.22.16 6pm:

Apparently, if this photo and the two at the top are leading examples, if in Europe and you see someone who has just suffered severe trauma, you do one of the following:

A) Take a photo,
B) Walk on past,
C) Apply direct pressure.

I guess you first vote for multiculturalism.  Then when multiculturalism comes, you grab your luggage, step over the bodies, and hail a taxi.

GP wins today's Headline Du Jour:  Brussels March Against Fear Canceled Due to Fear

The organisers of a “March Against Fear” planned for Sunday to mark the Brussels terror attacks said they had cancelled the event after the authorities asked them to do so because of security fears.

When we say "Europe is lost," we are not just pointing to the socialist domestic policies enabled by US defense spending that they don't have to do.  We're not just talking about the multiculturalist immigration policies that bring in hundreds of thousands who refuse to assimilate.  We're not talking about the welfare state within countries that have more government employees than those in the private sector.  We're not talking about the cancellations of kumbaya parades out of fear of death or hurt feelings.  And we're not talking about people taking pictures of helpless terror victims and the people walking by them with no care in the world.  Those are just symptoms of the disease. 

We're talking about the end of Western Civilization in Europe.  Forever.  Cause of death: national suicide.

Bumper Sticker of the Day

And the artist isn't even a Trump fan!

How appropriate after today's Brussels terror attacks.

English Russia has posted a bunch of LIFE Magazine photos from the Soviet Union. 

Here are my three favorites:

Book Review: Curse of the High IQ

Book Review: Curse of the High IQ, by Aaron Clarey.  2016.  222 pages.

Another great book built on the absolute Clarey principles: 1) your life is finite, 2) it is your responsibility to maximize it, 3) the most valuable thing in life is other people, and 4) you’ve been misled about life by people who profit from you (parasites).

Curse is my fourth Clarey book, if you don’t count Boris the Shitting Buffalo.  Enjoy the Decline, Bachelor Pad Economics, and The Black Man’s Guide out of Poverty are all solid books based on the Clarey principles above.  

If you don’t know, Aaron Clarey is a comrade of mine.  We connected through his blog, Captain Capitalism several years ago and have met four or five times since.  He has spent the last two years running Asshole Consulting, an unique advisory service of his own making.  Asshole Consulting has had some impressive success, so much so Aaron told me another book wasn’t worth his time.  He told me that maybe a month before he started Curse.  But that is Aaron.  Immerse yourself in Aaron’s YouTube channel, books and blog as I have, and you’ll see his is driven to help others.  Out of altruism, yes, but also a bit of anger at having suffered from false assumptions and guidance.  Most of his career and relationship advice comes from his own experiences.  Curse is no different.

Curse of the High IQ is Aaron Clarey’s advice to those suffering from abnormally high intelligence.  First, you’ll come to understand this isn’t ‘smart vs dumb.’  He explains the challenges of high IQ as being in relation to others rather than an actual ranking.  It is this explanation that should put the reader of any IQ at ease, and it negates the potentially negative tone of the book’s title as a book only for super-intelligent - something I think will hurt his book sales.  Like his last book, The Black Man’s Guide out of Poverty, I think Curse is a book for anyone as there are lessons for all.  

The reader will come to understand the challenges and obstacles high IQ people endure as they move from K-12 to college to career.  They will learn the system is not designed for high IQ people.  He also addresses the relationship challenges one encounters when trying to find an equally gifted mate.

The author references the brilliant 2006 movie, Idiocracy, often.  I would go so far as to call this book the critical analysis of that comedy, as it explores the systemic realities in education and employment that encourage the down-breeding that far outpaces reproduction within society’s high IQ populations.  

Clarey is a political conservative which comes through in all his books.  In Curse of the High IQ, he explains the “smart tax” high IQ people will pay if they choose to reach their potential.  Not only will they always be employed, but they will be taxed at higher rates too.  They will suffer politically as democracy is geared toward the lower IQ’s, many of which vote to redistribute wealth, avoid taking responsibility for their poor decisions, and seek a scapegoat to bail themselves out of future bad decisions.

Chapter 3, Education, was my favorite chapter.  Anytime Clarey has something to say about Education is an opportunity for me to light a cigar, pour a drink, and start nodding in agreement.  “...that veritable gulag of mental torture is the “education” system.” (P50)  You’ll also see words and phrases, “prison,” “bloat,” “conformity,” “compliance,” “obedience,” “outdated,” “child abuse,” “largest crime against humanity,” and “lack of passion.”  I can only hope a bunch of the bad teachers, professors, and education bureaucrats buy this book on the title alone thinking their self-worth will be reinforced, only to discover in Chapter 3 that their value to society has been been calculated, and it is far right of the decimal position.

I appreciated Aaron’s praise for the Internet as a tool to find friends outside one's city or state with similar interests and intelligence.  This was how we met.  I was impressed by Aaron’s expansion into advice for women - not something he’s done in his other books.  He is quite versed in understanding the different challenges the high IQ ladies face in career and relationships.  He also dedicates a good portion of the book to a huge challenge: the absence of challenges.  And last, and you’ll have to read the book to understand the joke: I enjoyed Aaron’s praise of Oprah Winfrey.  

The Curse of the High IQ has something for everyone.  But it is a must read for those who know they have a high IQ, and those who suspect the frustrations they’ve had in school, career and relationships may be linked to an abnormally high IQ.

Trump in the News

Some smelling hippies blocked the freeway leading into a Trump rally in Phoenix today. 

Result:  Trump for the win with more media attention!

It was recently reported that Trump has received $1.9B in media coverage. 

It is likely that today he went over $2B.
