[Here's the next batch of fresh sand. I find it interesting how the intersection of what interests me and RR's commenters goes up and down. It appears that the interests of our most voluble readers pretty much track the news cycle, often leaving unattended more fundamental and systemic events/trends that impact our lives and country. Because I have always walked a path less tread, for me this variance is noteworthy but not a consternation, since RR has always been a record of my observations and interpretations from the last great century of Man. In sum, I think of my weblog as a letter to my family and the future which, of course, includes the contents of its comment streams. gjr]

Marxism by any other name is still totalitarianism –
Briefly, neo-Marxism divides the world between oppressor and oppressed and identifies a system, or systems, by which the oppression takes place. In classical Marxism, the oppressed were the proletariat, the oppressors were the bourgeoisie, and the system of oppression was capitalism. The Marxist framework has been adapted to categorize and pit against each other various group identities, all toward the end of establishing socialism.

Merkle and Macron out maneuvered by the new Italian government –
“We believe that is should be only the Libyan authorities who patrol Libyan waters, and [support] blocking the way to non-governmental organisations that want to substitute, replace governments, and to help illegal immigrants,” Salvini said at his conference with Maiteeq, in reference to the so-called ‘rescue’ charities which have been picking up migrants in the waters off North Africa in order to bring them to European ports — often racing to beat Libyan coast guard vessels to do so.
“Let the Libyan authorities do their work of rescue, recovery and return [of migrants] to their country, as they have been doing for some time, without the ships of the voracious NGOs disturbing them or causing trouble,” he added later.
We, the Libyans, we agree amongst us on so many things with the Europeans and our partners regarding the illegal immigration, but we categorically refuse the presence of any migrant camps in Libya,” added Libya’s Deputy Prime Minister Ahmed Maiteeq.
The pair’s plans to establish reception centres to process asylum claims on Libya’s southern border appear to have completely outmanoeuvred proposals by France’s Emmanuel Macron, Germany’s Angela Merkel, and the European Union establishment, who have been suggesting reception centres either in southern Europe or on the Mediterranean coast in northern Libya.

Goodbye Little House on the Prairie..

Trying to impose 21st century PC values and social justice cleansing on 19th and 20th century literature is sort of like tearing down the statue of Joan of Arc in the French Quarter down in New Orleans, I reckon.
The characters and dialogue contained in Laura Ingalls Wilder’s beloved fictional children stories probably reflected the characters and conversations of the times when some folks were out in the boonies inside their little hobbles with their prairie home companions.
My take is the body of work of an author should be considered. We banned Huck Finn for containing the N word, yet do not take into consideration the relationship and bond that Huck and Jim had, nor the internal conflict Huck experienced to reconcile the times he lived in with his friendship with Jim.
I do not see the entire body of Mark Twain’s literary work demonized or removed from the public libraries, nor his name stricken from the record. And to think some have the nerve, nay the gall, to boast that Samuel Clemens once stepped foot in Nirvana City’s own Nevada County.
Seems kinda inconsistent, but what do I know.

fish: “This is how extreme conservatives think:” (Attributed to Spanky)
I rather like the phrase. I guess it’s in the thesaurus next to ‘hard right’.
No doubt I’m a broken record on the topic, but it’s been obvious to me for years that the argument between the two groups (and there’s typically just two groups) has spun from economics and the role of government to nationalism vs. globalism. Both sides can have varying opinions within their orientation about things like public health care, government pensions, gun control, etc., but these things have become a secondary overlay over the real point of contention. The new US Left never had any intention to protect the borders, but it’s only now become obvious.
You do have to ask why I, as a proponent for America and The West, would feel obligated to watch Spanky’s back in terms of government obligations. If they don’t look out for their own people, why should I look out for them?
The amusing thing is that the rest o’ the world doesn’t feel that way. To the citizens of China, Nigeria, Central America, a white US liberal is merely a chump. Those folks are filled with in-group preference and any thinking in game theory will tell you who ends up with all the gold, land, and wimmenz.

Papadopoulos pleaded guilty on Oct. 5 to lying to the FBI during that first interview about the timing of his contacts with a Maltese professor named Joseph Mifsud. Papadopoulos told agents that he believed he met with Mifsud before he joined the campaign on March 21, 2016.
Papadopoulos did tell the FBI about a meeting with Mifsud on April 26, 2016 in which the professor claimed that he had learned that the Russian government had “dirt” on Hillary Clinton in the form of “thousands” of her emails.
An affidavit filed in the case says that Papadopoulos deleted his Facebook account a day after his second FBI interview. The affidavit asserts that shutting down the Facebook account obstructed the FBI’s investigation.
Papadopoulos’ wife, Simona Mangiante, has told The Daily Caller News Foundation that Papadopoulos denies taking part in any collusion between the Trump campaign and Russian government. She says that Papadopoulos did not take Mifsud’s comments about Clinton emails seriously.
Papadopoulos would serve as the catalyst for the FBI’s counterintelligence investigation, which was code named Crossfire Hurricane.

Last week, a group of liberals swarmed Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kristjen Nielsen’s home over the migrant crisis, putting her family at risk while trying to leave.
As the Left gets more desperate to oppose Trump ahead of midterm elections, these disgusting tactics and calls for violence only prove how insane and unhinged they have become.

You have to admit that we are living in peculiar times when a large part of the population feels that a)the executive branch should not be fully in charge of entry into the country (subject to current US law) and b)if you refuse to let any old person into the country, you are a Nazi and probably have human skin lampshades in your den.
I don’t know if I would go so far as to call the Berkeley Blackshirts(tm) some form of fascist. There’s obviously more intellectual context to a proper fascist than a silly Left Coast kid is likely to cook up in their pointy little heads and violent mobs can be driven by all manner of things.

A report from who? Did these good folks ‘estimate’ that Trump would be POTUS?
Boardman couldn’t figure it out and is still pissed at Trump because as stupid as Boardman thinks Trump is, Trump is still way ahead of Boardman. Trump at least recognised that there was a trade war against the US and has joined the battle. The last sad excuse we had as POTUS had no clue.
I notice Boardman is trying to ignore the employment numbers. Lowest unemployment for blacks EVER! Must be because of Trump causing the loss of American jobs. If Odumbo was pres, Boardman would be braying like the demented donkey he is. Instead, he quotes ‘estimations’ from people that have no idea what is gong to happen in the next year. I can cite all sorts of things I don’t like about Trump, but he’s not stupid and he actually cares about his own country and restoring the rule of law.

You mean the folks that mutilate girls genitals and throw gays off the roof?
Is that the problem, bunky?
Just how many more innocents have to be murdered after hearing the yodel of ‘Allahu Akbar’?
Gee – I must be a real intolerant guy if I don’t celebrate the intolerance of the Muslims.

RL is speechless! Like all vacuous brainwashed liberals he can’t respond to a question which he knows would expose him to ridicule. I recall he did a lot of yapping about the Charlie Hebdo murders. Does that make him a bigoted racist? Yes in his own words.

IOt looks to me the left who is calling the “right” Nazis are actually what I recallroaming the streets in brown shirts beating people up. They were in black shirts in Italy. Nice to see RL upports them. We always knew he would be outed sooner or later.

WOW Boardman,, 500,000 over three years? It sure beats the hell out of 500,000 jobs lost in just one month when “O” got busy. Then continue that trend, and body count.
More people OUT OF WORK than WERE working. One HELL of an accomplishment. Forget that news?
Every time you speak of doom and gloom, the opposite is actually fact.

re RLC 420pm – It is remarkable that liberals view Trump wanting secure borders equates to a “Fortress America” that has no provision for continuing legal immigration. Everything for them is black and white, there is no practical nuancing possible when they fire up their thinkers. I wonder what doors they would consider that the feds would close if they did away with porous borders – or are porous borders the “open doors” that they seek to maintain?
And is it really a societal sin for people prefer living with people who share their values and mores? This is such a fundamental desire which 1) has never been abandoned by people in second and third world countries, and 2) is now desperately sought to be restored in first world countries that let in the hordes escaping from their own shithole countries. It is clear that what felt good then, no longer feels good after gaining some experience with ‘multi-kulti’. Why can’t people have the right to choose people with whom to live?

Reread what I said, George. “I’m not advocating open borders.” I’d love to see a real bipartisan effort, but with both sides entrenched in their dogma, it ain’t happening any time soon. One eye blind.

Well RL,, care to tell us just which party is “resisting” said bipartisanship? Trump even gave in to Proggy bitching. He stopped the separations. Yet Proggys whined even more. Now it’s “set’m free” to run wild across the nation.
Since when did Proggys give a shit about parental rights? Proggys want the State to raise the children. I Know. Been there.

How about enforcing the laws we have?
If not, then why have laws?

Enforce the laws is the chorus rising up across the world, call them ‘immigrants’ but it does not change that they are not legal.
