Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

I showed Blazing Saddles to a bunch of 'kids' in their early 20s about 30 years ago. When the sheriff held the gun to his head and said "Don't move or the n---er gets it!" they were mortified.
I thought it was one of the funniest lines in the movie.
The satire was completely lost on them and their programming kicked in. **nononono*

The movie could not be made, much less shown in theaters today.

For me, it was the "Whew! Damn near lost a $200 handcart" line and you are right about the not being able to be made or shown part. @Smokin Joe
"I wish it need not have happened in my time," said Frodo.

"So do I," said Gandalf, "and so do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us."
- J. R. R. Tolkien

Exactly right. Mel Brooks said that very thing a few years ago, and that's a shame. The movie is hilarious, and it's poking fun at bigotry and stereotypes. But today's non-thinkers just don't get it.


That is because NOBODY on the left has a sense of humor. Being steamed is a basic requirement.

@Kamaji

And THERE it IS!

I have seen photos of Putin's yacht,and read that it was the largest yacht in the world.

I have also seen aerial photos of his dacha outside of Moscow,and it is freaking HUGE. Commercial airplanes circling the nearest airport can see the swimming pool.

NONE of the communist brass live in Moscow. They all live in private mansions outside of town that are guarded by Soviet troops 24/7. Yeah,they DO have apartments in the Kremlin in case of emergency,but they don't live there.

Republicans, like claymores, should have the words printed on their fronts that say "This side toward enemy", and be frequently reminded of just who that enemy is.

Good thing you don't have an actual brain and operate off of brain farts because it gives Trump plenty of room to live in there.

'Florida Is A Mismanaged Hellhole And Only An Idiot Would Live There,' Says Trump

May 26, 2023 · BabylonBee.com




MAR-A-LAGO, FL — Trump made a statement from his Florida resort on Wednesday, responding to DeSantis's announcement he was running for President. In it, he attacked his opponent for mismanaging the state so badly that only a really dumb idiot would ever want to live there.

"Florida is a terrible place, really terrible, a hellhole, really," said Trump. "Only very, very stupid people live in Florida. That's how bad it is. So bad, really bad. But it would be a wonderful, perfect place if Ron DeSanctimonious, Meatball Ron, hadn't driven it into the ground--like a dog. Now, only very bad dummies still live there. And I know a thing or two about really bad dummies. Sad!"

Trump then vowed he would work with CNN, MSNBC, and Dr. Fauci to ensure DeSantis didn't win and then make the entire country just like Florida, where stupid people live.  .  .

If a political party does not have its foundation in the determination to advance a cause that is right and that is moral, then it is not a political party; it is merely a conspiracy to seize power.

-Dwight Eisenhower-


"The [U.S.] Constitution is a limitation on the government, not on private individuals ... it does not prescribe the conduct of private individuals, only the conduct of the government ... it is not a charter for government power, but a charter of the citizen's protection against the government."

-Ayn Rand-

Find a rock or something.
You cannot "COEXIST" with people who want to kill you.
If they kill their own with no conscience, there is nothing to stop them from killing you.
Rational fear and anger at vicious murderous Islamic terrorists is the same as irrational antisemitism, according to the Leftists.

To the contrary... The greater enemy is the one within the walls.
