B-Man Posted July 13, 2020 Share Posted July 13, 2020 Goya boycott backfires bigly as Trump supporters buy up Goya products like it’s Christmas by Samantha Chang Original Article The Left’s “Boycott Goya” campaign to bully and silence Goya Food CEO Robert Unanue for praising President Trump has backfired in epic fashion after scores of Trump supporters launched their own counter-boycott called “Goya Buy-cott.” The “Buy-cott” campaign inspired countless Trump supporters to go to their local stores and buy up Goya olives, seasonings, beans, and frozen foods like it’s Christmas. In fact, Goya couldn’t have asked for better marketing if it had paid millions of dollars in prime-time TV and newspaper ads. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ALF Posted July 13, 2020 Share Posted July 13, 2020 9 minutes ago, B-Man said: officials announced that the city would be called Washington, in honor of the country’s first president, George Washington. The larger federal area would be named the District of Columbia. Columbia had become another name for the United States, one that was used by poets and other writers. The name came from Christopher Columbus, the explorer who sailed from Europe across the Atlantic Ocean to the Western Hemisphere. https://learningenglish.voanews.com/a/a-23-a-2004-10-13-6-1-83122312/123257.html I learn something new everyday , thanks B-Man 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B-Man Posted July 13, 2020 Share Posted July 13, 2020 I THINK THERE’S ROOM FOR A LOT OF LITIGATION HERE: To stop ‘cancel culture,’ protect people’s viewpoints under civil rights law. And while Title VII doesn’t reach this sort of thing, I think the civil rights conspiracy laws, both civil and criminal, do, and should be so employed.

B-Man Posted July 13, 2020 Share Posted July 13, 2020 In recent years, America has witnessed the rise of a terrifying “cancel culture.” Those who dare question the left’s stifling orthodoxy on issues like transgender identity, institutional racism, and claims of systemic oppression have found themselves subject to an outrage mob and censured, fired, or worse. Earlier this week, 1960s-style liberals like J.K. Rowling and Noam Chomsky wrote a letter in Harper’s lamenting this cancel culture’s attack on free speech. On Friday, 163 pro-cancel culture journalists, academics, and activists shot back with a letter of their own, accusing the likes of Rowling and Chomsky of using “coded language” to try to silence supposedly marginalized voices in the name of “free speech.” In an Orwellian manner, the letter uses a Marxist analysis to claim that the culture of free speech is the real “cancel culture” because it supposedly institutionalizes the silencing of racial minorities and transgender people. Tellingly, it emerged at The Objective, an online journalism project dedicated to confronting “inequities in coverage that have been recognized as rooted in the notion of ‘objectivity’ since the 1950s and continue today.” In order to so thoroughly twist the Harper’s letter, the Marxist respondents descend to outright lies about the letter and about recent incidents of cancel culture. Yet the heart of their argument is based in identity politics and claims of institutional racism and transphobia. America’s free speech culture doesn’t count unless it provides equal space to “marginalized voices.” More at the link: https://pjmedia.com/culture/tyler-o-neil/2020/07/12/orwellian-marxists-claim-free-speech-letter-is-an-attempt-to-silence-minorities-n631085 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

B-Man Posted July 14, 2020 Share Posted July 14, 2020 VICTOR DAVIS HANSON ON PROTESTS AND THE LEFT: Peak Jacobinism? The Jacobin Left is just now beginning to get edgy. A few of its appeasers and abettors are becoming embarrassed by some of the outright racists and nihilists of BLM and the Maoists of Antifa — and their wannabe hangers-on who troll the Internet hoping to scalp some minor celebrity. The woke rich too are worried over talk about substantial wealth, capital-gains, and income taxes, even though they have the resources to navigate around the legislation from their wink-and-nod brethren. Soon, even Hunter Biden and the Clintons could be checking in with their legal teams to see how much it will cost them to get around the Squad’s new tax plan. The lines are thinning a bit for the guillotine. And the guillotiners are starting to panic as they glimpse faces of a restless mob always starved for something to top last night’s torching. Finally, even looters and arsonists get tired of doing the same old, same old each night. They get bored with the puerile bullhorn chants, the on-spec spray-paint defacement, and the petite fascists among them who hog the megaphones. For the lazy and bored, statue toppling — all of those ropes, those icky pry bars, those heavy sledgehammers, and so much pulling — becomes hard work, especially as the police, camera crews, and fisticuffs thin out on the ground. And the easy bronze and stone prey are now mostly rubble. Now it’s either the big, tough stuff like Mount Rushmore or the crazy targets like Lincoln and Frederick Douglass. * * * * * * * * The NFL pulled a Joe Biden VP trick and prematurely promised to play the “black national anthem” at a few games so that all can stand in homage in racial solidarity and then all kneel in disrespect for the subsequent ecumenical national anthem. Players can wear political insignia to remind incorrect viewers at home about how they are to think correctly. Will extra points be given for great passes and catches by the most woke? NFL owners can’t yet fathom how they have conjured up a brilliant new way of destroying a 100-year heritage and an inherited huge audience. Is the message of the most non-diverse players to their most diverse fans now to be: “We don’t like your racist country and won’t stand for your toxic anthem, but you owe us to stay tuned for the commercial ads and to come out to the stadium to pay oppressed multimillionaires like us”? Read the whole thing. Incidentally, the NFL is now also memory holing the work of an American Indian artist: Wokism Erases Native American Who Designed the Redskins Logo. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baked BBQ Baby Back Ribs If you're in the mood for a little virtual trip into summer, give this technique a try. This works with literally any dry rub and barbecue sauce combo. Preheat oven to 250 degrees F (120 degrees C). Mix ancho chile powder, white sugar, brown sugar, salt, black pepper, cumin, dry mustard, cayenne pepper, and chipotle pepper in a small bowl until combined. Place ribs meat-side down on aluminum foil. Prick back of rib rack several times with a knife. Generously apply coating of dry rub to all sides of rib rack. With rib rack meat-side down, fold foil around it to create a tight seal. Transfer to sheet pan. Place rack meat-side up and return to oven, leaving foil open. Bake for 10 minutes, remove from oven, and brush another layer of barbeque sauce on meat-side only. Repeat baking and brushing with sauce 4 more times, for a total of 50 minutes baking time.

B-Man Posted July 14, 2020 Share Posted July 14, 2020 “CANCEL GHOULS” IS A GOOD TERM: “I don’t even know what the cancel ghouls even say that he did wrong. I just assume they’re crying wolf.” And that’s a good assumption. The cancel ghouls are basically garbage people. . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
