Deadspin Tried to Destroy a Kid for Wearing 'Blackface,' Then the Real Story Came Out

 Deadspin Tried to Destroy a Kid for Wearing 'Blackface,' Then the Real Story Came Out – RedState

So what's the real story? Was this a malicious act of racism meant to demean and offend black people? In short, no. The real story is that the kid had his face painted black and red in support of his team.

"If you are one of the last people on earth who still requires proof that the press is full of objectively evil people, I come bearing gifts. 

"The story starts with a young Kansas City Chiefs fan. I don't know what his name is, and I wouldn't share it if I did because it's irrelevant. What's relevant is that the sports and political commentary site Deadspin decided they needed to destroy him. 

"What was the grave injustice that was perpetrated? According to Carron J. Phillips, who wrote the piece, the kid was seen wearing "blackface." I'd highly encourage you not to click the following link lest you reward the writer's tactics, but I'll provide it nonetheless. " . . .

The picture on the article is misleading. Other pictures of the child in question show that the other half of his face is painted red, black and red being the team's colors. twitter.com/shumate_shon/s…

. . ."Yes, a somewhat notable media outlet tried to take down a literal child because he painted his face in two different colors to cheer on his favorite NFL team. That's where we are as a society. Naturally, because again, the press is filled with objectively evil people, the writer of the piece doubled down. 

For the idiots in my mentions who are treating this as some harmless act because the other side of his face was painted red, I could make the argument that it makes it even worse.

"That guy being named "Carron" is just too perfect. Imagine being so miserable and desperate for clicks that you'd publicly doxx a child in order to accuse them of racism when you already knew they just had their face painted to represent their team. That's a special level of derangement." . . .

Israel and Gun Control

 Israel and Gun Control - American Thinker

Stern feels that Biden is also too focused on protecting Hamas and civilian casualties, and that his behavior in pressuring Israel on how to prosecute the war is unforgivable. “He should not be trying to place any conditions, and try to hinder Israel in any way, and I’m definitely disappointed about that, but I’m not surprised.”

. . ."According to Stern, “almost nobody is allowed to own guns at all” in Israel. But most citizens enter the Israeli military at 18, and they are issued a rifle. Americans who enter the military are also issued rifles, but the difference is that American soldiers aren’t permitted to keep their rifles in their possession off base. “But in Israel it doesn’t work like that, in Israel, the soldiers usually leave their bases carrying their rifles with them,” says Stern. Upon discharge from the IDF, however, the rifle is taken from the Israeli soldier. And from the sounds of it, that soldier may never be able to even get a handgun, never mind a rifle, again. Images in the news recently of IDF soldiers carrying their weapons are contributing to public deception around the idea of “loosened” gun-control laws in Israel. “The problem is that people see these off-duty soldiers, very often who walk around in civilian clothes, carrying M16s on their back,” says Stern. “And the conclusion that outsiders come to, ‘oh look at that all these civilians in Israel are armed, they can just walk around lugging M16s on their back,’ and they see [Israel] as a gun utopia.”

"If you are worried about gun control in America, you would not want to be an Israeli citizen. There is no Second Amendment in Israel. In fact, the second law that the Israeli legislature passed in 1949 was the confiscation of all firearms and munitions. About 2% of private citizens in Israel own firearms, as compared to 30% of people in the United States. “Out of those 2%, those lucky few who do have a firearm license in Israel, it’s only good for one pistol, no rifles, no shotgun, just one measly pistol.”

Biden is the primary obstacle to Israeli victory

 Caroline B. Glick; JNS.org 

Polling shows that the overwhelming majority of Americans support Israel in this war and want it to destroy Hamas; the overwhelming majority of lawmakers from both parties share that view.

"The time has come to discuss the Biden administration’s relationship with Israel. With each passing day, two things become obvious. First, Israel cannot fight the war without U.S. resupply of the Israel Defense Forces. As a consequence, Israel is beholden to the administration’s directives. And second, if Israel follows the Biden administration’s directives, it will lose the war.

"Israel’s dependence on the United States was stated bluntly by retired IDF Maj. General Yitzhak Brick in an interview earlier this week.

“All of our missiles, the ammunition, the precision-guided bombs, all the airplanes and bombs, it’s all from the U.S. The minute they turn off the tap, you can’t keep fighting. You have no capability. … Everyone understands that we can’t fight this war without the United States. Period.”

Brick went on to explain that President Joe Biden’s demand that Israel permit “humanitarian aid” to enter Gaza means that he is demanding that Israel keep Hamas fully supplied with food, water and fuel.

"His demand that Israel minimize Palestinian civilian casualties endangers IDF soldiers and renders the expansion of the ground offensive into central and southern Gaza, where the bulk of Hamas’s force is now located, almost impossible to carry out. Brick suggested various forms of long-term tunnel warfare and other suggestions for how the IDF may be able to defeat Hamas over time while operating within the constraints that Biden and his top advisors are dictating. 

"It is hard to judge whether Brick’s suggestions are workable without access to situational intelligence about conditions on the ground in southern Gaza. At a minimum, it is clear that Biden’s preference for the lives of civilians in Gaza over the lives of IDF soldiers on the ground ensures that far more soldiers will be killed in the fighting than would otherwise. Three weeks ago, the administration began demanding that Israel limit (or cancel entirely) its pre-ground battle aerial bombings. Consequently, in the week that preceded this week’s “humanitarian pause,” the IDF’s battle losses were overwhelmingly the consequence of sniper fire from Hamas terrorists hiding in buildings that the air force did not destroy before the battles, due to U.S. pressure." . . .

Craven Election Pandering -

 Diann Russell (substack.com)

"Islamophobia gets top billing while antisemitism gets relegated to the generic “all forms of bigotry and hatred?” Really?"

"Over the weekend, Hamas cheerleader NBC News reported that President Biden’s full-throated support for Israel after the October 7 terrorist attacks has put him at odds with Arab and Muslim voters in Michigan who are none too happy that the guy they voted for in 2020 is siding with America’s ally rather than the Iranian-backed terrorists who slaughtered its people.

"Here Michigan Muslims helped elect Joe Biden, and he turns around and betrays them by condemning the side that butchered whole families, including children and the elderly, set them on fire, and chopped off their body parts.

"The nerve of him!

"According to NBC News, Biden won Michigan in 2020 due in part to the 65% of Muslims who voted for him over Donald Trump, which is significant since Michigan has the largest Muslim and Arab population of any state in the country.

"The message NBC News was sending to the White House was clear: You won’t win Michigan in 2024 if you condemn Hamas and express support for Israel.

"Gauging from the White House’s recent pronouncements, it appears Team Biden got the message loud and clear." . . .

Islamophobia gets top billing while antisemitism gets relegated to the generic “all forms of bigotry and hatred?” Really?  ("I give you my word as a Biden!") 

Lithuania and the Nazis; American campuses and Hamas: Will the guilty be hunted down again?

Lithuania, [Universities], and Nazis: 

History & Overview of the Righteous Gentiles (jewishvirtuallibrary.org)  . . ."Attitudes towards the Jews during the Holocaust mostly ranged from indifference to hostility. The mainstream watched as their former neighbors were rounded up and killed; some collaborated with the perpetrators; many benefited from the expropriation of the Jew's property.

"In a world of total moral collapse, there was a small minority who mustered extraordinary courage to uphold human values. These were the Righteous Among the Nations. They stand in stark contrast to the mainstream of indifference and hostility that prevailed during the Holocaust. Contrary to the general trend, these rescuers regarded the Jews as fellow human beings who came within the bounds of their universe of obligation." . . .

One must ask how many of these righteous can be found on American campuses and if their persecutors will be given any sort of justice. 

Just as thousands of Lithuanians took part in Nazi concentration camps and the murder of Jews, so it seems many American students are equally part of the Hamas support system with their chants and assaults on those supporting Israel. Will there be more Simon Wiesenthals to hunt down and punish those who beheaded babies, massacred families, and destroyed peaceful communities? Will they stand accused of cheering with great relish and joy while American young people and their mentors joined in praise of their actions? An apt example is in the video below:

Muslim girl calls Jews "Nazis"   Ironic, wouldn't you say, considering the Nazi's mission was to wipe Jews off the face of the earth?

Comparing Republicans To Nazis—Who Started It? | Investor's Business Daily (investors.com)  . . ."How casually Democrats make Hitler-Nazi-fascist references to demean their political opponents is astonishing. By calling political opponents "fascists" because of policy disagreements, Democrats trivialize a regime responsible for exterminating 6 million Jews in a war that resulted in the deaths of over 50 million people." . . .

. . .""I find it hard to believe kids today are so desensitized to violence that when they see the strange convulsions of someone who's been shot, their first instinct is to laugh. If one of their friends was gunned down on the way home, would they stand there and burst into laughter at the way he/she died?"

"This Oakland students/"Schindler's List" disconnect is aided and abetted by leftists such as Gore, Bond and Burton who shout words like "Nazi" or "fascist" or "Hitler" at conservatives.

"And, no, it appears they have no shame."

Why the Left Will Cut Biden Loose

"After the Justice Brett Kavanaugh hearings, the nation was lectured that "women must be believed." But it was the Left who attacked former Biden aide Tara Reade who surfaced in 2016 to accuse then Senator Biden, her former boss, of sexually assaulting her."

 Victor Davis Hanson (townhall.com)   "Republican pundits and conservative activists are debating whether they can win in 2024 with the successful Trump agenda, but without the controversial former President Donald Trump as their nominee.

" The Democrats have a similar, but far more serious dilemma with President Joe Biden as the Democratic Party's nominee in 2024.

"Unlike the Trump Administration's successful four years, Biden's tenure has been an utter disaster. There are no policy offsets to the personal liabilities and unpopularity of Biden himself.

"Biden's liabilities transcend his physical infirmities, his advanced age, and his seeming geometric rather than arithmetic rate of mental decline. 

"Biden, moreover, proves daily that he is not a nice guy. His excesses, past and present, are precisely those the Left considers mortal sins.

Walking back Biden's absurdities has become the nonstop, tiresome task of many on the Left. As they face a midterm disaster in November, many no longer see any compensating reasons not to drop Biden. 

"When the Republicans take the House of Representatives in 2022 there will be nonstop investigations of Hunter Biden's alleged tax avoidances, his possibly illegal work as an unregistered foreign agent, and Joe Biden's untaxed compensation he received from the Biden lobbying consortium.

"Consider also Biden's nastiness." . . .

He serially lies that he drove a semi-truck. He has not been to the Middle East 38 times. He never received an appointment to the U.S. Naval Academy. Nor was he a full professor at the University of Pennsylvania. The MAGA movement is not the "most extreme political organization in American history." In other words, Biden reveals the same fantasies and plagiarism that ended his 1988 and 2008 presidential campaigns. . . .

 

Woke Christmas Tree Farm in Virginia Posts Shameful Antisemitic Message on Welcome Sign

Leftists can't even let apple picking, hay rides, and Christmas tree shopping be enjoyable and family-friendly. They have to suck the fun out of absolutely everything because they want everyone to be as joyless as they are; . . .Why are people like this on TV often named "Joy"?

  RedState  "From the Leftists Ruin Everything file: A Christmas tree farm in Northern Virginia felt this was the perfect season to blast an antisemitic message to customers and passers-by. Cox Farms, a popular destination for pumpkin pickers and Christmas tree shoppers in the D.C. area, put "Ceasefire Now" on their roadside welcome sign and accentuated the antisemitic display with a wooden watermelon. 

"The addition of the watermelon wasn't some folksy, farm-y touch, it was an obvious wink and a nod to the "from the river to the sea" crowd, who use the watermelon emoji to show their solidarity with Hamas. Nothing says "Let's celebrate the birth of the Christ child" like an anti-Jewish smear on display to the public. 

"The owners of Cox Farm, who clearly faced blowback from the community for their unnecessarily political sign, took to Facebook on Thursday -- the day of giving thanks -- to double down on their hatred for Israel, explaining that they "are committed to fighting injustice and white supremacy." If you're confused, wait until you read the entire message:

Cox Farms puts up political signs all the time. It’s in Northern Virginia so they get lots of positive attention on social media. They went hard during Trump years but of course, have been much calmer during Biden. pic.twitter.com/l5Vldub8SZ

Speaker Johnson to make all Jan. 6 tapes available to public 'immediately'.

 

Speaker Johnson to make all Jan. 6 tapes available to public 'immediately' | Washington Examiner   "The tapes will be posted on a public website and contain more than 44,000 hours of security footage taken during the Jan. 6 riot, barring any video that contains sensitive security information or "information that would lead to retaliation of private citizens," according to the speaker's office. The website launched Friday with its first tranche of footage, and the House Administration Committee will continue posting additional videos over the next several months.

"This decision will provide millions of Americans, criminal defendants, public interest organizations, and the media an ability to see for themselves what happened that day, rather than having to rely upon the interpretation of a small group of government officials," Johnson said in a statement.

"The videos will blur the faces of private citizens to ensure no one is "targeted for retaliation of any kind," the speaker said. Roughly 5% of the video footage will not be posted due to sensitive security information "related to the building architecture."

The public will also have an option to view the footage in person at the Capitol building inside the subcommittee’s offices. The public can begin reserving time to view the videos on Monday.

“ 'The goal of our investigation has been to provide the American people with transparency on what happened at the Capitol on January 6, 2021 and this includes all official video from that day,” said Rep. Barry Loudermilk (R-GA), chairman of the House Administration Committee's Oversight Subcommittee. “We will continue loading video footage as we conduct our investigation and continue to review footage. As I’ve said all along — the American people deserve transparency, accountability, and real answers supported by facts instead a predetermined political narrative." . . .

Two more Fox News mega-stars morph into "Chris Wallace 2.0" and POUNCE...

Revolver News   "The regime’s loyalists have united and are currently targeting Elon Musk, their second-most prominent political enemy (Trump is always at the top of their list). They’ve initiated an all-out attack against Elon and X, enlisting the tyrants over at “Media Matters,” one of their most formidable enforcement goons. Media Matters is picking up where the ADL failed and is attempting to dismantle the social media platform by persuading corporate America to withdraw advertising, thereby crippling Elon’s revenue. The situation has become so dire and seemingly corrupt that Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton has stepped in, launching an investigation into this alleged collusion.

Political Insider:

Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton has opened an investigation into Media Matters For America (MMFA) regarding “potential fraudulent activity” in their quest to shut down the X social media platform, formerly known as Twitter.

The move comes just days after X CEO Elon Musk announced that he was preparing a “thermonuclear” lawsuit against the far-left group of bloggers and journalists.

Media Matters initially published a report on Friday accusing X of placing ads next to “white nationalist hashtags,” a specious claim in which Musk argues the group used manipulated data and misrepresentations of reality to portray a false narrative.

Paxton’s office released a statement saying that they find Media Matters’ actions troubling.

“We are examining the issue closely to ensure that the public has not been deceived by the schemes of radical left-wing organizations who would like nothing more than to limit freedom by reducing participation in the public square,” Paxton said.

"And if it isn’t clear by now, this is precisely why the uni-party regime wanted to silence Ken Paxton. Thankfully, they failed, and he’s still battling for freedom." . . .

As a matter of fact, two prominent stars over at Fox News have become entangled in this and now sound like Chris Wallace on steroids. Here’s what Gregg Re said in a post on X, calling out Howard Kurtz and Bret Baier for their shameless attacks on Elon Musk and their twisted defense of the divisive, racist hate mongers over at the ADL:

Hamas and its supporters around the world are worse than Nazis -

WATCH: Greta Thunberg Takes the Mask Off Fully, as She Chants to 'Crush Zionism' at Disturbing Rally – RedState  "The left has pushed forward Greta Thunberg for years now, to tout their climate change agenda. You weren't allowed to criticize her, according to them, because she was a teen. Yet they still wanted you to accept what this child, who had no scientific background, was saying. And because it was about pushing the agenda wrapped in a package, you weren't supposed to criticize or point out any problems." . . .

Andrea Widburg; American Thinker   "World War II historian Andrew Roberts has a powerful essay making an important point: Hamas is worse than the Nazis because the Nazis still had a sufficient moral compass to be embarrassed by their genocidal crimes, while Hamas and its supporters are loud and proud. And when I say supporters, I don’t just mean the Gazastanians, a huge majority of whom support both Hamas and the massacre of Israelis. I mean their collaborators in the West, too, with the execrable Greta Thunberg as Exhibit A.

"Roberts writes that, while still lacking the wherewithal to kill six million Jews, Hamas and the whole panoply of antisemitic Jihadists are “qualitatively worse than the Nazis in their belief systems, impulses, and instincts.” The reason?

In October 1943 Heinrich Himmler, the head of the SS, delivered a notorious speech to 50 of his senior lieutenants in Posen. “I want to speak frankly to you about an extremely grave matter,” he said. “We can talk about it among ourselves, yet we will never speak of it in public. … I am referring to the evacuation of the Jews, the extermination of the Jewish people. … It is a page of glory in our history that has never been written and is never to be written.”

By total contrast, the Hamas killers 80 years later attached GoPro cameras to their helmets so they could livestream their atrocities over social media. Although the Nazis burnt Jews alive in barns on their retreat in 1945, they did not film themselves doing it. There are plenty of photographs of Nazis standing around death-pits full of Jewish corpses, but these were taken for private delectation rather than public consumption.

"When the Soviets approached Auschwitz, the Nazis did everything they could to hide their crimes, whether it was to empty the camps by taking prisoners on death marches or simply destroying the crematoria, which were the infrastructure of mass murder. Moreover, the reason for the gas chambers was that the ordinary German soldier was sickened by slaughtering civilians en masse, even the Jews he’d been taught to believe were subhuman." . . .

Teacher Stands With Israel, Students Riot

Hundreds of students rioted at Hillcrest High School in Queens on Monday, trying to assault a teacher who posted a photo on Facebook of herself with an “I Stand With Israel” sign:

Hundreds of “radicalized” kids rampaged through the halls of a Queens high school this week for nearly two hours after they discovered a teacher had attended a pro-Israel rally — forcing the terrified educator to hide in a locked office as the teen mob tried to push its way into her classroom, The Post has learned.

The mayhem at Hillcrest High School in Jamaica unfolded shortly after 11 a.m. Monday in what students called a pre-planned protest over the teacher’s Facebook profile photo showing her at a pro-Israel rally on Queens Oct. 9 holding a poster saying, “I stand with Israel.”

Hundreds of kids flooded into hallways and ran amok, chanting, jumping, shouting, and waving Palestinian flags or banners." . . .
