This has gotten ridiculous.  What's next?  Dynamite Washington, Jefferson, and Roosevelt off the face of Mount Rushmore?  I'm sure somebody is butt hurt about Lincoln.  Blast him off too. 

replace with AOC, Al Sharpton, Obama, and this lady:

KAROL MARKOWICZ: The ‘cancel’ crew will come for you someday soon.

A moral panic is sweeping the nation. How we react to the pitchfork hordes will determine the fate of our country for a generation or longer.

 

We call what the hordes do to our fellow citizens “cancel culture,” but the term is far too cute to capture the cruel, mindless and life-destroying process taking place all around us in the name of “fighting racism.”

 

The tendency has been with us for some time, but the current, ­extra-crazed moment has accelerated its malignant energies: Locked in for months due to COVID-19, we re-emerged into a society more enraged and at war with itself than ever before.

 

Then the killing of George Floyd in Minneapolis took the ideological madness to the next level. The great majority of Americans agreed that Floyd’s death was horrific and that the police officers responsible for it must be held to account. But that sane consensus wasn’t enough, as far as the cancel left was concerned: Enemies had to be found and eradicated.

 

 

 

It’s almost as if the enemies part is more important than the fighting-racism part.

Because this is really about white supremacy. 

 

Sorry, Shaun. You're a bigger fraud than most. 

So if I understand this numb nuts, the dark skinned Egyptians enslaved the lighter skinned Jews for years and years?  Let my people go!

Of course they will.   

 

Everyone associates Niemoller's poem to Nazis.  Unfortunately, there were more fitting precursors on the left.   

 

How many of the statist lefties know that Orwell was an unrepentant communist, until he witnessed firsthand what the Stalinists were capable of and how they went about achieving their goals?

The woke mob will get to Kimmel, Stern and the like eventually.  There's numerous videos on youtube, for now, of Stern wearing outrageous black face make-up on his TV show in the 90's.  But Howard dedicates 1/3 of his show these days to anti-Trump rants, so he's still useful for the time being.

Once again the real intentions are covered up by a false narrative.  This is not about removing statues from an era that does not exist today in the name of correcting the evils of the past.  It is about breaking down the history and culture of the country to be replaced by the far left's new normal.  They are pushing now to see how far they can go before they receive push back.  That will then be the starting point for the next wave as they break down the country.

FIRE THEM, AS AN EXAMPLE TO THE OTHERS: 

 

Publishing Staff Threatens To Strike If Company Keeps J.K. Rowling’s Book.

 

 

 

How DARE she stick to her principles !

 

 

 

UPDATE:

 

J.K. Rowling’s literary agency lets clients leave rather that meet their demand to ‘re-educate’ their staff

 

THAT'S what you need to do !

Theodore Roosevelt...

Words from Theodore Roosevelt, firmly attached to a wall near the entrance of the Museum of Natural History,  dug up this morning on the occasion of the news that the TR statue will be removed from its sublime place of prominence in front of the museum.

 

No wonder he's offensive to this generation...
