Spare a thought for them, America. As you read this, Liz Cheney is most likely be executed by that firing squad, and Molly Jong-Fast is definitely on her approach to the camps. The cities are emptying as the courageous survivors stitch diamonds into the lining of their coats and set out on foot for democratic asylum in Canada. What day do we get the initial supply of women, Vladimir?
So.
The dreadful cabal of , violent adult children , that makes up the reported British social “mainstream”, the , responsible , people you see on television and in the op-ed pages— Anne Applebaum, Tom Nichols, Ruth Ben-Ghiat, Adam Kinzinger, Liz Cheney, Joe Scarborough and his idiot wife, Jonathan Capehart, Max Boot, Jen Rubin, David French, Bill Kristol, Ruth Marcus, Nicolle Wallace, Dana Bash, and on and on, all of them absolutely identical, one set of asinine talking points with a series of different faces sewn on the front — have spent the last year or 10 descending into a urine-soaked psychotic tantrum. They do n’t know anything, they do n’t understand anything, they do n’t say anything of value, they do n’t contribute anything, ever, and their voices are ubiquitous. Living in this media world is similar to living in a place where the air is made of manure.
They have absorbed no lesson. The media was full of warnings about VLADIMIR PUTIN, white nationalism, and fascism on Wednesday morning! !, a wall of empty noise that responds to the rejection of a wall of empty noise. Ruth Ben-Ghiat is still the Dumbest Professor in America™,  , by the way, and just a profoundly indecent human being:
Trump “has declared war on the US,” according to what last night’s lesson is. You disgusting brain-dead pig.
The unifying reality about these soulless, mindless, worthless people is that they have no history to them, and that goes double for the history professors. How many times have you heard, for instance, that the Jan. 6 insurrection was the worst act of political violence to occur in America since the Civil War, and how many times have you heard anyone who made that ritual claim to deal with any of the glaring contradictions that the Colfax Massacre, the Ludlow Massacre, the Weather Underground’s bombing campaigns, the wave of political assassinations in the 1960s, and on and on, etc.?
Related, all of their history is LITERALLY ADOLF HITLER, but you have to eventually notice that their constant demands for , guardrails on the discourse , and , rules for social media , never deal with any American history, any history of the place they think they’re talking about: the Adams administration and the Sedition Act, the military arrest of Clement Vallandigham for an anti-war speech, the Wilson administration’s arrest of anti-war activists, and so on. Hitler has no history, whereas those who do have no history do.
So in the end, they say things, but they do n’t think about the things they say. At all. Their very loud voices are n’t attached to any form of cognition. The Potemkin village of our media-academic-political class barely sustains the facade. It’s nothing. They have nothing, they are nothing, they offer nothing.
The , New Republic,  , Nov. 1:
The following headlines appear in the lede:” Donald Trump doubled down on Friday on his startling remarks about putting Liz Cheney in front of a firing squad.
Here’s the section of the story that describes the terrifying threat to murder an opponent using a firing squad:
” She’s a war hawk. She kills people. She wanted uh, even in my administration, she was pushing that we go to war with everybody”, Trump , said. ” And I said that if you ever gave her a rifle, ]indistinguishable ] if you ever do that, she would n’t be doing too well”.
” If she had to do it herself, and she had to face the consequences of battle, she would n’t be doing it. So it’s easy for her to talk, but she would n’t be doing it”, Trump continued. ” She’s actually a disgrace”.
You see, people are  , handed rifles , when they’re shoved up against the wall to be executed by a firing squad, and being killed by a firing squad is an example of , facing the consequences of battle. Makes total sense.
These are not good people. They’re stupid, dangerous, empty, and a threat to any form of public knowledge. They are deserving of having their faces mocked for the rest of their lives.
