  • Another Homemade Crisis

    Taking cues from Orwell’s 1984, Big Tech has quashed discussion of 2020 election integrity.  However alarming this foray against our free speech rights, their larger aim is still more profound and threatening to our continued enjoyment and exercise of constitutional rights. … Indeed, the Left seeks no less than to assert total dominion over all…

  • Ruminations – 6mar21 (updated 11mar21)

    George Rebane White supremacist hysteria has reached fever pitch among the progressive socialists.  Commenter BillT @ 835am cites (here) the dean of Arizona State University who announced that characteristics of precision, timeliness, quality expression (e.g. good written English), good work ethic, etc are all part and parcel of “white racial habitus” which perpetuates “white language…

  • Scattershots – 2mar21 (updated 5mar21)

    George Rebane Those who judge the past in terms of the here and now are doing a great disservice through their ignorance of the then and there. The Left’s promotion of America’s new cancel culture is in full swing.  We now have full scale censoring of politically incorrect content on our mass media – broadcast,…

  • Scattershots – 26feb21 (updated 27feb21)

    George Rebane ‘Masks don’t work and are damaging to health’ concludes another panel of concerned physicians (here).  “The only randomized control studies that have ever been done on masks show that they don’t work”, stated Dr Eric Nepute, one of the three physicians on the ‘Unmasking Covid-19’ panel who further agreed with the now widely…

  • Progressives Big Lie #7519 – Texas Power Debacle

    George Rebane The 24feb21 Union ran this cartoon on its op-ed pages. From this the newspaper’s uninformed and progressive readers have the clear takeaway that the Texas electric grid is in disarray and dysfunctional, as the recent blizzard demonstrated, because the electricity market is too ‘free’ and unregulated.  The disaster that hit Texans, and from…

  • Consummating Corporatist Conspiracies

    “Conspiracy – an evil, unlawful, treacherous, or surreptitious plan formulated in secret by two or more persons; plot.” George Rebane Over the last year or two corporatist conspiracies have come into full bloom with the various progressive factions of the government and media as counter-parties.  Today the dominant vehicle for promoting the fruits of such…

  • Dark Days Diary – 21 feb21

    George Rebane Litmus test for liberal mentality.  There is a very reliable test to identify a person sporting a well-developed liberal persuasion.  It can be administered within the comfortable confines of a casual conversation about almost anything socio-political.  A few questions about the person’s viewpoint or perspective, which can then be mildly challenged, will quickly…

  • Right Wing Watchers

    George Rebane For some time now a hard-left commenter signing himself as ‘Nevada County Right Wing Watch’ has been visiting these pages and leaving a trail of his intelligence, understanding, and thoughts.  He claims to be part of an extensive organization, apparently one of several reported in the news that are doing their best to…

  • $15/hr Dumbth on the March

    You always get less of what you tax more.  Eternal Truth #461 George Rebane For some years now RR has chronicled and mourned America’s decline in intellectual resources and critical thinking skills.  This national dash to dumbth continues (nay, accelerates) as a purposeful process by progressives who have carefully husbanded public education at ALL levels…

  • Ruminations – 13feb21 (updated 17feb21)

    A happy finish gilds everything, however unfitting the means may have been.  Which explains why at times it should be the rule to offend the rules, when it is not possible by other methods to attain a happy ending.  Gracian #66 George Rebane ‘My way or the highway!’ were the responses to the 13feb21 column…
