Pop Goes the West. Not With a Bang, But a Taylor Swift Tour

The evolution of Pop from being the music of freedom to being the official soundscape of the dumbest regimes JUPPLANDIA
  • Sometimes the most infuriating aspect of living through dystopia is not the lies, but the mediocrity.
  • Dystopia’s have no room for genuine creativity, genius, or talent...
  • During the Soviet era and the Cold War, western culture was producing a vibrancy and excitement that the heavily regulated, controlled and oppressed artists of the Communist world could not possibly match...Creativity doesn’t flourish when a man with a clipboard and a gun is examining every line for forbidden things...
Today, we are in a very different situation. 
The modern Communist is aligned entirely with the modern Bright Lights...
  • Don’t just build a prison. Don’t just control thoughts and speech. Paint rainbows everywhere. Make it a big decadent party. Let them sing the songs you put in their mouths, as if they had found them in their hearts.
And so we come to Taylor Swift...

A Luxury Nobody Can Afford | The Pipeline

Corporate America finally wises up to the scam. - Joan Sammon 
  • From Boeing to Starbucks and BP to Budweiser, the landscape of Wall Street is increasingly strewn with failed executive boards that adopted ideological policies that have been bad for business...
  • Filled with acolytes from some of America’s most prestigious business schools, executive boards have been persuaded by promises of increased executive compensation -- lots more money -- to not question, not challenge and not fight the adoption of transient faddish standards into boardroom decisions, even in direct violation of their fiduciary obligations to shareholders.
  • Now...shareholders are finally demanding that the ideologically strident environmental, social and governance nonsense known as "ESG," economic foolishness underpinned by narratives of "climate catastrophe" and the make-work, economically suicidal foolishness of "diversity equity and inclusion" (DEI), be scrapped...

Challenge to state's traffic camera tickets brings heavyweight argument | WND | by WND Staff

"In Virginia, the law says that in a regular traffic case, you have the presumption of innocence, you have the right to remain silent, you have a right to a jury trial – all of the criminal protections that we get," Anderson said. "That’s what the case is about. If the court finds that traffic tickets are entitled to full constitutional protections, then I think we have a real shot at getting this injunction."

Prices at the grocery store changing before your eyes

But the cost of an item could change in the time it takes you to walk from the deli to the frozen aisle. - By Kim
"Grocery stores across the country are swapping out printed price stickers on aisles for electronic ones. 
  • Retailers say it saves time...
  • Electronic shelf labels (ESLs) are already in place in Whole Foods, Amazon Fresh stores and in regional chains, like Schnucks in the Midwest. Walmart plans to add ESLs to 2,300 stores by 2026.
  • They have a point about saving time...The typical Walmart store stocks roughly 120,000 different products. Adjusting all those prices manually takes days. 
  • With the ESL system, thousands of prices can be updated in the blink of an eye. Prices can change every 10 seconds...

BigBrother doesn't want you to know!-----Nashville journalist faces jail time for refusing to reveal source of leaked trans school shooter's private writings

Audrey Hale, a transgender radical leftist, massacred three young children and three adults in a premeditated, anti-white racial attack on Christians.
  • A Nashville journalist has been threatened with prison time if he doesn't reveal his source who leaked Audrey Hale's manifesto, the transgender Covenant school shooter who massacred three young children and three adults in a premeditated, anti-white racial attack on Christians.
  • The Tennessee Star published the bombshell manifesto after the federal and local governments worked to block the public from seeing it, citing concerns it could be used as a roadmap for copycat school shooters in the future and there could be "unintended consequences for the segment of the population more vulnerable or open to conspiracy theories."...

Some have missed the point!

Climate Change Information is Sanitized for Your Protection

The public is right to be apprehensive of official proclamations whenever qualified professionals are strongly discouraged and even prevented from challenging dubious “settled science.” By Anthony J. Sadar
"Climate change information disseminated to the public has a huge political filter. 
  • In the 1970s, besides poor air quality, the three biggest air-related issues were depletion of the stratospheric ozone layer, acid rain, and climate change. The climate change angst was in a state of flux, with a solid leaning toward the coming of the next ice age.
  • As the 1980s rolled in, progress was underway to limit ozone-depleting chemicals (chlorofluorocarbons) and to curtail acid rain by reducing power plant emissions of sulfur dioxide, among other actions. 
  • Climate change concern was veering from cooling to warming and the “greenhouse effect” became the popular nomenclature (later to morph into “global warming,” then “climate change,” and more dire terminology)...

The only reason!

What the IDF just said about Hamas should "TERRIFY everybody | Blaze Media

“[His statement] should terrify everybody,” according to Glenn.

“This is about good versus evil ... not just for Israel. The West is riddled with supporters of Hamas and their clones. They're marching in our own streets! Do you think if Hamas is re-energized, it's going to be good for America?” he asks.

“If Israel fails in this, the world will be darker for it, but it will not stop there. They will come for the rest of us. [Hagari] is wrong.”

Snopes Suddenly Discovered that Biden and the MSM Have Been Lying About Trump for Years DAVID STROM

It only took seven years, hundreds of thousands of repetitions of falsehoods, and a presidential campaign predicated on a lie for Snopes to fact-check a claim about President Trump praising White supremacists.
Joe Biden has pushed this hoax for years now, and even claimed he ran for president because Trump called White supremacists very fine people.
Few people in the media ever contradicted this narrative, even though there was no question that it was false...

Defense Department sued over killing 'Duty, Honor, Country' slogan | WND | by Around the Web

A government watchdog, observing what could be a step in the transition of West Point to "Wokey" Point, has sued the Department of Defense over the decision to kill the "Duty, Honor, Country" slogan at the military academy. "Given the woke virus infecting West Point, deleting the words 'Duty, Honor, Country' from its mission statement has sparked justified concern about what the Army's rising leadership is being taught at the United States Military Academy," explained Judicial Watch chief Tom Fitton.

Who needs actual achievement when your address is the "context"?!!-----Yet Another Bad Admissions Idea

The College Board’s “Landscape” tool is terrible news for admissions fairness. Graham Hillard
  • Leigh made a 34 on the ACT. 
  • Bill made a 23. 
Which of the two do you want attending your academically selective college? ...
Yet, following the logic of Landscape, the College Board’s quietly insidious “contextualization” resource, admissions officers may find themselves shunting Leigh aside in Bill’s favor.
Developed in 2018 and broadly available since 2020, Landscape is a free admissions dashboard that allows decision makers to “consider each student within the context of where they’ve learned and lived.”...

Their scam is so weak, they're forced to lie to convince the gullible.-----No, Bloomberg, Neither Extreme Weather Nor Climate is Worsening in Swelling Cities

What is most telling is that the Bloomberg map shows clearly the at-risk urban cities that have the lowest per-capita income and lower access to inexpensive energy. It is no surprise that most of economically depressed Africa and much of Asia and India are shown to be the most “at risk.” - From ClimateREALISM - By Anthony Watts
An article in Bloomberg, titled “Climate Change Is Putting Swelling Cities at Risk,” with the subtitle, “A warming world is putting Bangladesh, Niger, Pakistan, and other countries more at risk for extreme weather,” makes some false claims that are refuted by real-world data and by scientific research which examines the impacts of growth and the densification of cities...
