Moonbattery is up first with “American” Struck from the Newspeak Dictionary

Despite the damage they have inflicted on American culture, America still stands for everything leftists hate, being a predominantly Christian constitutional republic, moral, healthy, and free. Otherwise, the educrats at Stanford would not have struck the word “American” from the Newspeak Dictionary.

The Hill - When the FBI attacks its critics as ‘conspiracy theorists,’ it’s time to reform the bureau

“Conspiracy theorists … feeding the American public misinformation” is a familiar attack line for anyone raising free-speech concerns over the FBI’s role in social media censorship. What is different is that this attack came from the country’s largest law enforcement agency, the FBI — and, since the FBI has made combatting “disinformation” a major focus of its work, the labeling of its critics is particularly menacing.

The Other McCain - Elliot Rodger and Nick Fuentes: The Satanic Politics of Self-Destruction

It should be obvious that the reason Mother Jones (and other liberal media) are giving a fringe figure like Fuentes free publicity is as a way to smear all conservatives as implicated in his craziness. And let there be no doubt about this — it is unmitigated lunacy.

HeyJackass! - Chicago Airing of Grievances

As is tradition on this day, Festivus begins with Airing of Grievances where we get to tell some people in this city how they've disappointed us.

Meep at Stump - Merry Christmas! Have Some Finalized 2021 U.S. Mortality Stats!

Only the best holiday presents for my readers

SiGrayBeard 0 Time For the Annual Holiday Celebrated By White Liberals

Is there any other holiday that was created by FBI COINTELPRO? In this case, the “African American” alternative to Christmas was invented by ’60s-radical and convicted felon Ronald McKinley Everett – who changed his name to the more “African” sounding Maulana Karenga back in the ‘60s. The only thing “African” about it is the corruption of a Swahili phrase, “matunda y kwanza,” which translates as “first fruits of the harvest.”

Again from The Other McCain - Have a Holly Jolly (Commie) Christmas

At this point, Hoge interrupted to inform me that Burl Ives had a few career achievements that may have been more important than this silly Christmas song, including playing “Big Daddy” Pollitt in Cat on a Hot Tin Roof in 1958, the same year he won the Oscar for Best Supporting Actor as Rufus Hannassey in The Big Country. Well, OK, but as usual, Hoge’s interruption didn’t address my point, which in this case is that certain Christmas songs have a definitive version, which deserve a permanent place on the holiday playlist for the sake of cultural continuity.
