Superman colorist quits over comic's embrace of wokness: 'Tired of this s***'

Fox News  "A colorist involved in creating the Superman comic says he is quitting his position in response to the "wokeness" that has permeated the franchise.  

 " 'I’m finishing out my contract with DC. I’m tired of this s***, I’m tired of them ruining these characters; they don’t have a right to do this," Superman: Son of Kal-El colorist Gabe Eltaeb said during a recent podcast, according to Bounding Into Comics.

" 'What really pissed me off was saying truth, justice, and a better world," Eltaeb added. "F*** that it was Truth, Justice, and the American way," he said. "My Grandpa almost died in World War II; we don’t have a right to destroy s**t that people died for to give us. It’s a bunch of f****** nonsense."

"DC Comics, the longtime publisher of Superman comics, recently announced that Superman’s new slogan no longer states that the hero is fighting for "truth, justice, and the American way" but now stands for "truth, justice and a better tomorrow." . . .

CNN’S STELTER PRAISES DROPPING OF SUPERMAN'S 'AMERICAN WAY' MOTTO, CALLS IT 'ETHNONATIONALISM'  

Moderate Democrats all but extinct

 Michael Goodwin

"The Wall Street Journal wrote Tuesday that President Biden was making another attempt to salvage his stalled legislative agenda by meeting separately with progressive and moderate Democrats.  

"The next sentence was more telling: The moderates were Sens. Kyrsten Sinema (D-Ariz.) and Joe Manchin (D-W.Va.). The progressives were too numerous to mention.

"If you get the impression there are only two senators holding back the great flood of government waste known variously as “Build Back Better and the “human-infrastructure” package, you’ve got the whole story — as told by the Washington press corps.

"For my money, the much more interesting angle, and far more important to the future of America, is what’s going on with the other 48 Senate Dems. All apparently are on board with the most expensive piece of legislation in history and are happy to be called progressives. 

"The legislation in question was crafted by Sen. Bernie Sanders, and he says the current price of $3.5 trillion is “the minimum” and “already a compromise.” Much of the bill remains a secret and some parts are still being written. 

"Yet the 48 already have said yes. Talk about a blank check."...

If You Can’t Tell A Man From A Woman, You’re Not A Health Official, You’re A Health Threat

America and her culture surely are now the laughing stock of this planet and that has to include the tens of millions of the voters who choose this administration. We have seen already how little respect our main adversary, China, has for us. Even if our next President is a courageous, respected individual, the world knows the character of our media, culture and this electorate cannot be taken seriously. TD

 The Federalist

"The left became impossible to parody somewhere in between “believe all women” and peak trans. The guys at The Babylon Bee are going to have to quit soon, if not because they cannot get any more bizarre than the left then because it seems like the left is using their headlines as an instruction manual.

"Here is what I am reacting to, and it is not made up. It is real. 

"Not only did Joe Biden appoint a man who claims he’s a woman, and whose poor public health decisions led to thousands of unnecessary COVID deaths, as assistant secretary for the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. Biden has now made that man a four-star admiral and proclaimed we should all cheer at his administration appointing the “first” “female” “four-star officer.” I repeat, this is not a joke.

"This official, Rachel Levine, has zero military experience. He’s as much a soldier as I am (although I am 100 percent more female than he is).

"Here is the U.S. “surgeon general” saying “her [sic] service will undoubtedly advance the
@usphscc [U.S. Public Health Service Commissioned Corps] mission to protect, promote, and advance the health and safety of our nation.' ” . . .  OCTOBER 20, 2021 By Joy Pullmann

Everything is a mess, but at least we have a transgender admiral  

. . ."I am delighted to read that the Biden administration is committed to diversity, inclusion, and equity.  Just remember that the next time you fill up your tank, go out to dinner, go shopping for groceries, or read about the border.

Still wonder why our adversaries around the world hold this nation in contempt? Read on:

State Department puts virtue-signaling ahead of diplomacy with 'International Pronouns Day' tweet   . . ."Knowing someone who uses these pronouns does not indicate acceptance.  People can think the practice is stupid or dysfunctional but still know people who use them.

"Perhaps the most useful paragraph is the one in which it explains the mystery of what are called the Alphabet people: LGBT...etc.:

(LGBTQI+ stands for lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer and intersex people, with the "+" signifying all the gender identities and sexual orientations that are not specifically covered by the other initials.)

"Keep in mind that this is almost certain to be revised and expanded."...

Meanwhile Obama still uses "I, Me, Mine".

Media Gone Wild (Over Trump!)

Ann Coulter

"If you really, really miss Donald Trump, MSNBC may just be for you! Biden is cratering, fuel prices are skyrocketing (hey, anybody seen Greta Thunberg?), hundreds of thousands of illegal aliens are pouring across our border, and the murder rate keeps hitting historic highs. "But the establishment media can't stop talking about TRUMP.

"So for my friends in the media, here are a few thoughts on your Trump obsession.

Rep. Liz Cheney, daughter of Dr. Evil, has become an unlikely hero among the Can't-Get-Enough-Trump media -- because she can't stop talking about Trump either.

"Cheney says: . . ."

. . . 

"But thanks, media, for so debasing yourselves with idiotic lies over the past five years -- e.g., Russian collusion, the "Access Hollywood" tape, Trump's remarks on Charlottesville -- that I had to look up a basic fact question for myself because I simply couldn't trust you." . . .

Biden’s Health Official Sworn in as First-Ever Transgender Four-Star Admiral

 Neon Nettle

"Joe Biden's top health appointee was sworn in as the first transgender four-star admiral on Tuesday.

"Rachel Levine, who was born male but identifies as a woman, was sworn in on Tuesday as an admiral of the United States Public Health Service Commissioned Corps.

"I'm doing this because of my dedication to service ... with the utmost respect and honor for the uniform that I will be wearing," Levine told the Washington Post.

“I stand on the shoulders of those LGBTQ+ individuals who came before me, both those known and unknown,” she said.". . . 

'Rachel Levine Is a 4-Star Admiral' Is Our 'Caligula's Horse Is a Senator' Moment "Legend holds that the deranged Roman dictator-emperor Caligula elevated his favorite horse, Incitatus, to the rank of senator. This historical tale has survived the ages to become a metaphor for abuse of authority. People generally assume that Caligula’s motive for this stunt was simple madness, but looking deeper, one finds a more sinister rationale: Caligula’s threat to elevate Incitatus to the rank of consul (an honorific usually granted to loyal senators) was at once a debasement of the office, a potent demoralizer of Roman patriots, and a flex of raw power.". . . 

Rachel Levine Is Not the ‘First Female Four-Star Admiral’ ... Because He’s a Male

"In an apparent attempt to compensate for being everything the radical left hates (an old white heterosexual male), Joe Biden has been a sucker for symbolic appointments and nominations. Before we knew who he’d pick as his running mate, we knew it would be a minority female. Since taking office, when various positions have been filled there has been an abundance of “the first _____ to serve as _____” in the accompanying press releases, fulfilling his pledge for a diverse administration for the sake of diversity.

"The Biden administration has taken this pledge to the extreme at times, such as his nominating of Rachel Levine to be assistant secretary for health at the Department of Health and Human Services. Levine, who previously served as secretary of the Pennsylvania Department of Health, was undoubtedly chosen solely because he is a man who thinks he’s a woman.". . . 

In-N-Out's Defiant Stand

Support In-N-Out!

Legal Insurrection

“It is unreasonable, invasive, and unsafe to force our restaurant associates to segregate customers into those who may be served and those who may not, whether based on the documentation they carry, or any other reason.”

.  

“We refuse to become the vaccination police for any government,” In-N-Out’s Chief Legal and Business Officer Arnie Wensinger said in a statement. “It is unreasonable, invasive, and unsafe to force our restaurant associates to segregate customers into those who may be served and those who may not, whether based on the documentation they carry, or any other reason.”

"Think about it. It’s the only In-N-Out in San Francisco. Have you had In-N-Out? I think Whataburger is better, but In-N-Out burgers are delicious and addicting". .  . 

Thomas Lifson: In-N-Out Burger refuses to demand vaccine 'passports' in SF store, forced to close indoor dining   "The first prominent company to stand up to vaccination passport bullying is In-N-Out Burger, which should surprise no one familiar with the company's history and culture.  More on that below, but first, according to Amanda Bartlett of SFGate". . . 

. . . The quality of the food is miles ahead of the competition, and in the end, that's what matters.  I had one of their double-doubles for lunch yesterday and savored it all the more, knowing that this is a company standing up for my sovereignty over my own body and willing to stand up to bullies with their fake science."

Perhaps 911 will respond

In-N-Out Takes a Defiant Stand Against San Francisco's Draconian Vaccine Mandates

. . . "These vaccine mandates are part of California’s draconian effort to enforce vaccinations on the public, with major cities like San Francisco implementing what amount to the need for vaccine passports in order to use services within the city. The rules enforced on citizens don’t seem to apply to the rule-makers as it was revealed earlier this month that Newsom hasn’t vaccinated his daughter. This is the same Newsom that was caught dining in at the high-end restaurant “The French Laundry” after effectively locking down his state.

"In-N-Out’s decision to defy the vaccine mandates may come as no surprise to some who understand the company’s values. Despite being California-based, it is an openly Christian company with the owner, tattooed rocker Lynsi Snyder-Ellingson, not only promoting a Christian-based life to anyone who will listen but the company once angered Democrats after it donated $25,000 to the Trump campaign in 2018 according to SFGate.

"The discovery caused the leftist mob to become enraged and call for a boycott that didn’t get very far.". . . 

Travis Tritt: Vaccine Mandates Used to ‘Shame,’ ‘Discriminate Against People that They Don’t Feel Are Clean’

Breitbart  "Tuesday on FNC’s “Tucker Carlson Tonight,” country music artist Travis Tritt elaborated on his refusal to perform venues that are imposing vaccine requirements for attendees.

"Tritt told host Tucker Carlson he had played 75 shows in 2021 and said that the term “super spreader” was not applicable to his events, given there had been no noticeable out-of-the-ordinary increase in COVID numbers after his concerts.

"He also called the mandates were divisive and used to “shame” and “discriminate.' ”. . . 

"Biden’s Voters Really Thought He Would Govern Competently? And yet we must pray for him to last three more years."

"It is the way of the new vision: D.I.E. — Diversity, Inclusion, Equity. Instead of equal opportunity, equal results. A vice president of no consequence or attainment whose two resumé qualifiers are that she is female and remains darker skinned even after a three-week visit to Florida. A president who ran on a 50-year record of failure and racial bigotry. . ."

 Source: The American Spectator  . . ."That really is how we ended up with Biden as president. No one sensible conceivably thought that after 50 years of his manifest mediocrity and plentiful plagiarism in public life, this charisma-less character suddenly was going to push Teddy Roosevelt or Thomas Jefferson off Mount Rushmore. Biden inevitably was going to be a candidate, instead, for a Mount Flushmore, perhaps accompanied by a Millard Fillmore, a Franklin Pierce, or a James Buchanan. He had nowhere to lead us because, although even a pencil must be lead, Biden’s presidential candidacy, with Kamala and Nancy in the wings and “The Squad” as backup, was a Peter Bruegel the Elder painting to rival the best “Blind Leading the Blind” paint-by-payola-numbers art works among the coveted Hunter oeuvre of collected high-bribe etch-a-sketch offerings.

"Biden so obviously was going to lead us nowhere — not into the Promised Land, not out of Egypt, not even around a desert for 40 years. Like the mediocre colonel who submitted a mediocre application for promotion, his only letter of recommendation could read: “His men would follow him anywhere — but only out of curiosity.”* 

"And yet the Democrats selected him from among their primary bounty of choices, a box of chocolates without fillings in the center … and without chocolate. And now the rest of America is surprised to see the Guernica they got? Why the surprise? How the surprise? It never could have been otherwise. He had no vision for half a century — and yet now he suddenly was going to see a future when he still was promoting 33 rpm vinyl records in 2020? One year ago Politico had him at +16 and Fox News at +20.  Harvard-Harris still had him at +15 in June. It made no sense. And then came Afghanistan — the hammer.

"Afghanistan was so dramatic that it pierced through the combined Left Media and Social Media walls protecting Biden from public view. People finally got their glimpse of the man they had seated in the Oval Office.". . .

Irrelevant Republicans Being Ignored!

The liberal media is giving all their attention to the tax and spend Democrats!

Outside The Beltway

"Via the memeorandum aggregator, I found this bizarre story on Newsbusters (“LOPSIDED: Dems Swamp Republicans (115 to 16) on Evening News Budget Stories“):

Is there any surprise our national debt keeps climbing when the voices calling for fiscal responsibility are almost completely drowned out by the national media?

In the network evening news show coverage of stories about the infrastructure bill, increasing the debt ceiling and President Joe Biden’s “Build Back Better” spending boondoggle Republican voices were almost completely shut out. 

MRC analysts looked at 30 stories on the ABC, CBS and NBC evening programs covering the most recent budget debates from September 23 to October 10 and discovered a whopping disparity in soundbites with Democrats overwhelming Republicans by a 115 to 16 count.  

Yes, viewers of these programs were seven times more likely to hear from hardcore big spending Democratic lefties such as Sen. Bernie Sanders, Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Rep. Pramila Jayapal than Republicans like Sen. Mitch McConnell or Rep. Kevin McCarthy.

"Leaving aside that the Republicans seem to be committed to “fiscal responsibility” only when Democrats are in the White House, this seems a rather bizarre critique. One party controls the White House, House of Representatives, and (nominally, at least) the Senate. The Republican leader in the Senate, Mitch McConnell, has made it abundantly clear that there will not be a single vote from his party for raising the debt ceiling or in support of the reconciliation package.". . .

All emphases in the original.

Jason Whitlock Fires a Warning Shot at White Men and American Males with Traditional Values – What the Left Did to Black Men, “YOU’RE NEXT!”

 Pastorius @ DEPLORABLE Bloggers Alliance  "Sportswriter and conservative thought leader Jason Whitlock appeared on Fox News’ “Tucker Carlson Tonight” Thursday to discuss the recent liberal media attacks on black comedian Dave Chappelle and NBA player Kyrie Irving. Whitlock described how the liberal left has destroyed black men and the black family in America today. He then fired a warning shot at white men and men with traditional values. The left is coming for you next.    

"Whitlock recently said as much in his column at The Blaze. 

"Tucker asked Whitlock to summarize his latest piece for the viewers. 

Jason Whitlock: “It’s critical that men stand up because we’re teh ones being bullied into the closet if we have any traditional values… In my podcast I’m trying to explain to all men regardless of color, we got to get into this together. You can’t look at this and go, Oh look what’s happening to black guys, and not understand – You’re next! You’re next! They’re in your schools emasculating you right now with critical race theory and teaching your kids that you’re the worst person on the planet. They’ve come for us. I admit, from the Great Society Initiative and the total emasculating of black men, and the creation of the welfare state, and running the man out of the black family. And now we have all these confused and clueless and dysfunctional kids. I’m telling you, YOU’RE NEXT! And if we don’t come together those of us who believe in a higher power, those of us who believe in God and Jesus, those of us with traditional male values. If we don’t come together regardless of our skin color, we’re all going down!

. . .  Before the Great Society legislation was passed and signed into law, Malcolm X predicted exactly what Jason Whitlock is talking about here. And Whitlock is right to say, "They're coming for you next." Because they've already started."
