Common Sense Addressed to the Inhabitants of America

 America Out Loud



"I’m going to start out with a hard truth nobody in elected office is allowed to say, but that is nonetheless true: had there been an insurrection on January 6, 2021, it would have been 100% justified – far more so than when leftist rioters burned down buildings and fought with the police and National Guard, trying to get into the Capitol Building on January 6, 2017. Leftwing politicians and our media seem to have forgotten that more than 200 people were arrested, and six police officers were injured, around the Capitol Building in a riot on January 6, 2017.

"One difference between January 6, 2017, and January 6, 2021, is that in 2017 Paul Ryan, the Speaker of the House at the time, called up several thousand police reserves and the National Guard to keep people out of the Capitol Building, whereas in 2021 Nancy Pelosi did not do a damned thing. Another difference is that 2017 saw more than ten times as much damage as did 2021. Another difference is that the police did not kill any of the rioters in 2017, whereas in 2021, a police officer shot and killed an unarmed Air Force veteran named Ashli Babbitt. Another difference is that in 2017 none of the protesters were really prosecuted, whereas, since 2021, the FBI has been working very hard to prosecute anyone and everyone near the Capitol Building, whether they broke the law or not.

"Nancy Pelosi had, incidentally, been told by the FBI that there would be a riot on January 6, 2021 (there are indications that the FBI may have had informants helping to foment one). She still did nothing – and that was by choice.

"The biggest difference between January 6, 2017, and January 6, 2021, is the way Democrats and the press covered both incidents. Democrats championed the rioters in 2017 – some were directly involved. In most cases, the SAME Democrats who supported an ACTUAL insurrection in 2017 are the loudest people calling January 6, 2021, an insurrection, today.". . . 

Let’s honor Martin Luther King Jr. today by rejecting critical race theory

CRT the latest descendent of Cuban Marxism


"Having fled communist Cuba as a political refugee, I grew up in a school system that created a false reality through Marxism. 
"The Castro regime tried to mold us to become what Che Guevara called the “new man and woman” — who could reform their “individual consciousness” to shed their traits of greed, egotism and selfishness to embrace a “collective spirit.” 
" Fidel Castro based his Marxist revolution on hate by leveraging upon grievances. As part of that, he waged class warfare, destroyed monuments, policed language and revised Cuban history to undermine our progress with the goal of creating a “classless society” where there was no oppression.
"As Castro pushed his false reality of Marxist ideas on Cubans, Martin Luther King Jr. asked Americans to replace hate with hope and instead join him in an attainable goal — living in a society that judged people by their character, not the color of their skin. 
"Today, just as in the Cuban Revolution, a small but influential segment of the population wants to force others to accept their false reality by putting race in the front row of all human interactions in the form of critical race theory, which is now infiltrating primary education. 
"A fresher descendent of Marxism, CRT evolved from critical theory that originated from the Frankfurt School of Germany and came to Columbia University. Like critical theory and Marxism, which oversimplified society into two groups, oppressed and oppressors, CRT goes one step further, dividing society into Black and white." . . .Gelet Martínez Fragela

5 Things To Tell Someone Who Harasses You For Going Maskless

 Washington Watch

Further, a recent study from the UK found that unvaccinated children are safer from COVID than even vaccinated adults of any age. Kids don’t need to wear masks or even get vaccinated. I’m certainly not going to make my kid wear a mask out in public. As a vaccinated adult, my kid is better protected from COVID than I am.

"There is technically a statewide mask mandate in New York state, yet I’ve refused to wear a mask since it went into effect. On Wednesday, for the first time in weeks, I was briefly harassed for going maskless in a grocery store . The person who bothered me for my maskless state didn’t escalate the situation after I talked back to him, but I was ready for it. As omicron is likely to spark new COVID restrictions, you might find yourself in a similar situation, and I’ve come up with a few things you can say if it happens.

"These mask shamers think they’re doing the right thing because they’ve been told to mask up. However, these religious Covidians probably forgot that even their messiah, Dr. Anthony Fauci, said that the “typical mask” you can buy wouldn’t protect you from COVID. He never said this publicly, but we know this from an email released as part of a FOIA request last year.

“ 'Masks are really for infected people to protect them from spreading infection to people who are not infected rather than protecting uninfected people from acquiring infection,” Fauci wrote on February 5, 2020 . “The typical mask you buy in the drug store is not really effective in keeping out virus, which is small enough to pass through the material.' ”. . .

YouTube Kicks Bongino Off for Slamming Masks; Same Day, CDC Admits Cloth Masks Offer Less 'Protection' (ijr.com)  "An illustration of how the ever-mutating coronavirus has been accompanied by ever-mutating rules regarding who can say what came last week when a conservative commentator was punished for his talk about masks on the same day federal officials nibbled away at past comments in support of cloth masks. "On Friday, commentatorDan Bongino was hit with a suspension from YouTube, apparently for calling masks “useless.” "YouTube did not reveal which words triggered the one-week suspension, according to the U.K. Daily Mail. Bongino was also demonetized for 30 days, the Daily Mail reported, meaning his videos won’t collect revenue from advertising. "YouTube’s COVID-19 policy bans content criticizing masks, according to The Hill." . . .

Joe Biden's Georgia speech backfired more than he ever could have imagined


 NY Post   " 
It is startling when two speeches within 24 hours, neither much heralded in advance — the second wouldn’t even have been given without the first — leave you knowing you have witnessed a seminal moment in the history of an administration, but it happened this week. 

"The president’s Tuesday speech in Atlanta, on voting rights, was a disaster for him. By the end of Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell’s answering speech on Wednesday you knew some new break point had occurred, that President Biden might have thought he was just crooning to part of his base but the repercussions were greater than that; he was breaking in some new way with others — and didn’t know it. It is poor political practice when you fail to guess the effects of your actions. He meant to mollify an important constituency but instead he filled his opponents with honest indignation and, I suspect, encouraged in that fractured group some new unity. 

"The speech itself was aggressive, intemperate, not only offensive but meant to offend. It seemed prepared by people who think there is only the Democratic Party in America, that’s it, everyone else is an outsider who can be disparaged. " . . .

"Most wince-inducing: “Will you stand against election subversion? Yes or no? . . . Do you want to be on the side of Dr. King or George Wallace? Do you want to be on the side of John Lewis or Bull Connor? Do you want to be on the side of Abraham Lincoln or Jefferson Davis?” 

" If a speech can be full of itself this speech was.
" From the floor of the Senate the next day came McConnell’s rebuke. It was stinging, indignant to the point of seething. He didn’t attempt to scale any rhetorical heights. The plainness of his language was ferocious. Biden’s speech was “profoundly unpresidential,” “deliberately divisive” and “designed to pull our country further apart.” “I have known, liked and personally respected Joe Biden for many years. I did not recognize the man at the podium yesterday.” Biden had entered office calling on Americans to stop the shouting and lower the temperature. “Yesterday, he called millions of Americans his domestic ‘enemies.’ ” That, a week after he “gave a January 6th lecture about not stoking political violence.”

CNN Skewers Biden’s Voter Suppression Lies. Yes, CNN.

 Legal Insurrection

“New York is one of the most reliably Democratic states in the United States and New York requires people to request absentee ballots, just like the new Georgia law does.”

"Very few people were impressed with Biden’s divisive speech about the Democrat “voting reform” bill in Georgia this week. It was full of insults that weren’t even historically accurate.

"In an amazing development, CNN’s Erin Burnett called out Biden on the air.

"Transcript via CNN:

BURNETT: On the side of right or the side of racism, that’s what’s being presented. Even the second ranking Democrat in the Senate, Dick Durbin, said Biden ‘went a little too far in his rhetoric’ in that particular comment. And a right versus wrong simplistic view here is a problem. First of all, because more people voted than ever before in the last election.

So to just broadly talk about voter suppression may miss that very crucial point. And take vote by mail as one example. Here’s what Biden said this week criticizing Georgia’s new law.. . .

Mass Formation Psychosis. The Madness of Crowds. And The End Of Progressive America.

 Legal Insurrection   "Until a few days ago, I had never heard the term “Mass Formation Psychosis.” There’s a phenomenon when something gets hot that all sorts of experts announce themselves on Twitter, when their expertise is about 24 hours old and an inch deep." . . .

Left unabated, a society under the spell of mass formation will support a totalitarian governance structure capable of otherwise unthinkable atrocities in order to maintain compliance. A note: mass formation is different from group think. There are easy ways to fix group think by just bringing in dissenting voices and making sure you give them platforms.  It isn’t so easy with mass formation.  Even when the narrative falls apart, cracks in the strategy clearly aren’t solving the issue, the hypnotized crowd can’t break free of the narrative.  This is what appears to be happening now with COVID-19.  The solution for those in control of the narrative is to produce bigger and bigger lies to prop up the solution.  Those being controlled by mass formation no longer are able to use reason to break free of the group narrative.

More thoughts from the comments to this post:
CommoChief | January 9, 2022 at 11:36 am Given that we have a segment of the population who are slavishly devoted to the idea that 1. Covid is the plague and Fauchi is the savior 2. Jan 6 was an insurrection

The Cult of Covid

 "The danger of the COVID cult is that it is not small nor is it outside the mainstream. The COVID cult has become the mainstream and normal people have become the fringe, fighting for a return to sanity."
COVID has become a worldwide cult - American Thinker   "Merriam-Webster defines a cult as “a small religious group that is not part of a larger and more accepted religion and that has beliefs regarded by many people as extreme or dangerous;” and “a small group of very devoted supporters or fans.” The keyword in these definitions is “small.”

"Most human beings may have their quirks and their follies, but they are not so open-minded that their brains fall out. Normal people simply do not want to follow individuals, no matter how charismatic, who promise miracles in return for all of their money and earthly possessions, nor do they want to have their lives completely controlled. Or at least, that once was true.

"It would seem that this is no longer the case. Millions of people around the world appear to have joined a cult based on COVID. They are wearing masks to show their obedience, although masks may not be effective and have been shown to cause emotional and mental problems.

"They are rushing to be vaccinated, although vaccines could be driving COVID mutations. The father of mRNA vaccines, Dr. Robert Malone, has been warning against universal vaccination.

"People have been told to be terrified of the latest COVID variant, Omicron, and they are duly shaking in their shoes. But Omicron generally is so mild many don’t realize they have caught it and there have been very few deaths.

"The cult mentality was on full display when the newly elected governor of Virginia, Glenn Youngkin, issued an executive order allowing parents to opt out of school mask mandates. Youngkin did not forbid anyone to mask their child. He merely ordered that no one can be forced to mask their child.
