Asshat politicians who can't stand being parodied

and send the cops after people; routine now in (fG)Britain and Europe, and what the left would love to see here*.

Hey, West Midlands Police, kiss our ass.

And Bennett?  We'll post it if we like, and laugh like hell at little tyrants like you.

*No, they don't think it can be turned around to bite them in the ass.  Idiots.

We're not the only ones seeing the threat

Mr. Huffman's quote of the day:

Americans — a confession from Japan you were never meant to hear.

We are terrified of fascism. Not the version in your textbooks. The version that lives inside us.

In 1941, no dictator dragged the Japanese people into the dark. We dragged each other. Neighbor watched neighbor. Mothers reported their own sons. One doubtful word at the fish market and the police came in the night. The village went silent. That silence lasted four years and killed millions.

That is how a free nation dies. Not with jackboots. With whispers.

And right now — the same silence is being built again in Japan. Not by the right. By the Left.

They throw our gates open. Strangers pour in by the millions — Muslims, Africans, people who will never bow to our dead. And when a Japanese grandmother dares to say, “wait — slow down — let us think,” she is dragged into the public square and branded a fascist. A racist. A monster.

Hear me clearly: in our country, “racist” is no longer a moral word. It is a muzzle. A weapon. A silencer pressed to the mouth of every citizen who still loves Japan.

If we fall, Beijing feasts. Moscow carves the atlas. The lights of the free world blink out — Tokyo first. Seoul next. Washington within a generation.

So I come to you — Americans. The one nation on earth that still salutes its own flag without flinching.

Do not let the Democrats take your country again.
Do not let your patriots be shamed into silence.
When America stands, the free world stands.

From one wandering samurai in Tokyo, to every patriot across your fifty states —
You are not alone.
You are the wall.
Stand.

Yes, Britain is a police state,

though I prefer janissary state, as the janissaries march her away for carrying a sign they disapprove of.

Two connected things over there

in Britain: One, like in places here, the associations are causing real problems.  Like the police chief who, when officers showed up at his house because of his abusing his wife, told them not to arrest people for that because it's not a real crime, and should be handled in the mosque by sharia law.

And, I think connected, is the new Brit version of "You can say anything you want as long as we approve of it."
On September 22, Britain’s new (and unelected) Prime Minister Andy Burnham took to the stage at the U.N. and announced a new “National Centre for Information Defence” to “detect, attribute, and disrupt” hostile state information attacks.

The Right has correctly criticized this for being akin to Orwell’s terrifying “Ministry of Truth.” Our American cousins should be as concerned as we are because the Democrats will be sure to use this as a blueprint.

But this announcement is so pernicious because there is actually some merit in highlighting the kind of information warfare that is being waged against Western populations. But none of us can trust our own governments, given their recent track records, to have such power over information.
From bits and pieces that do get out, an awful lot of Brits are telling the .gov in general, and the police in particular, to go to hell.
The Jerusalem Cross is going up on A-road lampposts. Richard the Lionheart kit at Reform rallies. Templars at Tommy Robinson marches. “Christ is King!” cried by Danny Tommo and his lot down in Dover. Crusader crosses are quietly usurping the Cross of St George — itself a crusader cross — at Portsmouth, London and points between. The algorithm is pumping out AI knight reels faster than a medieval pope pumping out papal bulls. England is Crusadesmaxxing. 

Which must be driving the government nuts.  Which brings something to mind:
One of my gripes with Heinlein was his insistance in one or two stories that the Crusades were primarily to send younger sons off to cause trouble somewhere other than back home.  Among problems with that:
The number of kings, and older sons, nobility in general who swore to go and went.
There really was war between invading muslims and Christians and Jews.
And it's still going on in many places.
Heinlein had an argument, but I think he got this wrong.

The Brit government: "Don't worry, we won't use THIS bureau to censor

 people the way we've used every other bureau and excuse!"

Bullshit.

Cleese is one of those that will actually stand up on this

Cleese took his show to the Islamic Republic of Birmingham on Sunday night. News of the blasphemer’s arrival caused a wave of horror among that city’s legion Islamo-nutjobs. One group, by the name of Deenified, put out a hilarious / sinister video in which young men upbraid Cleese for ‘attacking Islam’. You’re a ‘hate preacher’, they cry. Islamic agitators calling others hate preachers? RIP irony.

They called on Birmingham Town Hall, where Cleese was appearing, to ‘align with its duty of community respect’ and ‘cancel the show’. ‘Align with its duty of community respect’ – what a chilling, slippery euphemism. Perhaps they were worried they’d give the game away if they said ‘Silence the blasphemer!’. Unfortunately for them, we infidels aren’t as dumb as we look: we know that lurking in that velvet glove of community-speak is the iron fist of a medieval intolerance for the greatest liberty of all: the liberty to speak.

What sacrilegious utterances has Cleese made to earn such ire? He said, ‘The Koran’s teaching is ALL about acquiring power’. He said Britain’s ‘cultural heritage’ is ‘vastly superior’ to the Islamic way of life. He said ‘Islamophobia’ is a sinister term designed to ward people off from ‘criticising a religion’. He said too many comics hold back from mocking Islam because they don’t want to be murdered. He said some Muslims behave like ‘a bunch of five-year-olds’, wailing whenever someone mocks their beliefs.
The wailing would be annoying, but ignorable.  It's their habit of killing people in the name of Allah that's the problem.  And you're a racist* if you say that.

The way he put it a while back:
I see I am being ritually insulted for my support of this man The uneducated call me a racist I am not a racist I am a culturalist I believe that some cultures are better than others I prefer cultures to do not advocate stoning, pederasty, wife beating, female genital mutilation, and beheading opponents Call me old-fashioned...
Hear, hear.

Reminds me of something someone said about Rudyard Kipling, that he wasn't racist, he simply thought English culture was superior.

*People of just about every color/ethnic background are muslim, but somehow it's racist to say you have a problem with islam.

About Kipling, the man who wrote a lot of stuff he did did not hate/crap on the people of India, it's that difference in cultures.

Whenever a German politician speaks of hygiene, run the other direction

and get your military prepared to respond. Nothing good can come from it.

Especially when they say things like this:
Chancellor Friedrich Merz (CDU) has once again spoken out in favor of a mandatory real-name requirement on the internet. During a meeting with winners of the national competition Jugend forscht (Youth Research) in Berlin, he reaffirmed his position.

"Please, nobody come to me with 'free speech,'" Merz said, according to report details. "This has nothing to do with free speech anymore." He added that such a view is, at best, a "libertarian understanding of politics" stemming from parts of the United States, which he personally does not share.

Merz emphasized that a liberal society must be able to protect its citizens—including protection "against false information, personal disparagement, and discrimination."
'Protect its citizens' meaning "We have to keep them from hearing unapproved information, and thinking there's something wrong with the government telling them how to live!  We must have proper order, and that means keeping people from hearing just anything that we might not approve of!"

Yeah,  Like politicians in Australia want the law to prevent people making fun of them.  Very important, that is, much more important than some idiot 'free speech' idea.

'Free Speech' in Britain: "If there weren't so much security here, the muslims outside

would force their way in here and kill you."  And this 'free speech' supporter and ass-kissers approved the idea.

And yes, it gets worse.

The Brit censors want what?

Local law enforcement agencies and courts. A British quango has floated the idea that American cops will be dispatched to collect a British speech fine, on the week of America’s 250th birthday, from a website whose entire legal existence sits under the First Amendment. You could not make it up, and yet here we are.

Preston Byrne, the US lawyer representing 4chan, gave the plan the review it deserved.

“This is legally illiterate,” Byrne wrote on X. “If they really want to sue us in the United States to recover a foreign censorship penalty, we welcome the fight.”

He was only warming up. “we now have a foreign censor claiming not only that their laws work on U.S. soil, but also that they can conscript U.S. police forces to finish the job,” Byrne wrote, adding that “Ofcom’s threats here are, much like their fines regime, toothless and designed to intimidate.”

His conclusion on the whole business: “it’s long past time for the U.S. to put the UK back in its box.”

And then kick the box off a dock.

There's a Brit website called 'The Conservative Woman'

which has put out a lot of good stuff, which put it in the sights of the control freaks, and it's having effect.  Which includes a bunch of 'conservative' politicians who also want control.
'For their own good', of course.

Do not trust any politicians.  Or anyone else here who wants to 'upgrade' the 1st Amendment.  Miserable bastards.

Speaking of civil rights in places where they only have the ones the .gov allows,

Here’s the thing: censors always think their motives are pure. From inquisitors to commissars to modern “hate speech” units, they all believe they’re preventing some existential harm. That has never made it okay to strip people of their basic rights, and it doesn’t change the fact that this is precisely what they’re doing.

In the United States, we (still) recognize that. In the EU and the UK, they increasingly do not. And that’s more dangerous to how we treat speech in the US than the abuses that happen in places like China or Iran, because we aren’t likely to turn into China or Iran. But we may turn into the UK, or Germany, or Finland, where they purport to maintain their belief in free expression but have rationalized it into a corner where it can do very little good. So while we’re never shocked at horrifying censorship in China or Russia, we should continue to be shocked by the retreat from liberalism that we’re seeing in the Anglosphere and in Europe. We also need to be vocal in opposing it, because it really could happen here.
Lots of examples in the post.

And why the politicians who push this crap should be labeled traitors to their country.

"Don't worry, Starmer," says the Labour Party,

"we have lots of other little Stalin Wannabes who's shut up the peasants!"

"X lets people say and read and do things we don't like

without having to ask permission, and it's a massive problem!"

These little Stalin wannabes are just wonderful, aren't they?

Reasons to keep an eye on the activists in schools

And to sue their asses off when called for.
The 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals ruled in favor of an elementary school student’s First Amendment rights after she was punished for adding the words “any life” to a picture of “Black Lives Matter.”

The student, with the initials B.B., said she added the message while in first grade in 2021, inspired by a lesson on Martin Luther King Jr. She shared the drawing with a friend.

The school principal told her the drawing was inappropriate and punished her, according to the Pacific Legal Foundation, which represented the family in the case. The principal forced her to apologize, banned her from giving drawings to classmates, and excluded her from recess for two weeks.

Short version: the left is losing power, and they're getting desperate

Found at Insty, interesting reading

Well, what would you expect from the BBC?

Just like the Democrats would love to be able to do here.

Also, 

More on this one here.

And, I'd guess expecting the Iranian government to shut down internet comm, 
Channel 14 Israel: Amid Iran’s internet shutdown, Elon Musk has quietly enabled free Starlink access for protesters, according to people familiar with the matter. The move was implemented several days ago without a public announcement, with protest leaders informed privately. Israeli businessman Dubi Francis raised the issue with Musk’s team after an inquiry from Deputy Minister Almog Cohen. Musk committed to keeping the network open at no cost while protests continue and instructed Starlink executives to block regime interference.
Not exactly unexpected, is it?

No matter how much it'll piss the BBC and their masters off.

Funny, it is

It's what it means that's not

That's the Lt. Governor of Minnesota playing submissive for the Somalis. 

Speaking of idiocy, the elected-Mayor of NYeffingCity has selected his head of the Fire Department: a lesbian who's never been part of the fire department.  Apparently he liked the disaster that followed stupidity like this in Los Angeles.


More idiocy in the EU, some of the attacks on speech; they consider 'free speech' to be speech they approve of.

Same kind of bullshit in Aussie land.

Here's the Premier of New South Wales:

"We don't have the same freedom of speech laws that they have in the U.S., and the reason for that is that we want to hold together a multicultural community."

You can have free speech or you can have multiculturalism. You can't have both.
And he'll kiss terrorist ass as much as he can to show his submission to their approval.


Speaking of, the proper title of this would be 'UK Muslim Minister declares 'War on Boys Who are Not Muslim'

'There is no censorship here,

just follow our rules.  Scientific fact is no excuse not to.'

Hey, Helmut, kiss our ass.

Worth reading

When a society begins to suppress intellectual and spiritual searching and dreaming — by punishing speech, regulating thought, discouraging questions, denying the existence of spiritual reality — it is not only a political decline, but a sign of deep unwellness.

Where populations lose respect for liberty of conscience, inquiry, and discourse, society becomes nasty and brutish. Truth-seeking, spiritual health, and peace are inexorably linked. Across formerly open, stable, safe western societies, censorship and repression have been rising as safety, cohesion, and quality of civic life decline.

We must resist cancel culture and speech codes for the following reasons:
Good reading follows.

Our own Rotherham, combined with massive fraud, and cops and prosecutors either corrupt or too incompetent to do their jobs.
For over a decade at this shingle, we've reported on the industrial-scale gang-rape afflicting almost every town up and down the spine of England, most recently on a special edition of The Mark Steyn Show. The stories are all different, and yet in their most salient aspect all the same: In every town the girls are doubly violated - sodomised by their Pakistani Muslim clan-rapists, and then further assaulted by a whitey-white officialdom that is, as a practical matter, on the same side as the rape-gangs. The politicians, the social workers, the media, the coppers, all of them. In a particularly brazen example, after our friend Samantha Smith made her debut appearance on the Steyn Show, the goons of West Mercia Constabulary came banging on her door the following morning to warn her about going on telly to talk about it. Of course, Samantha, having more courage than the entirety of the English police, immediately went back on telly to shove it up West Mercia's flabby arses:
...
What would you do if you wanted to incentivise the exciting multiculti phenomenon of gang-rape? Well, you'd do exactly what the impeccably "progressive" Hennepin County Attorney, Mary Moriarty (pictured at top right), did. You'd do a "plea deal" with Mr Mohamed:

He was sentenced to three years in prison for the attack on the 15-year-old, but the sentence was stayed for five years, meaning he served no time in prison...

He was sentenced to 14 months in prison for the 2024 sexual assault, but that sentence was also stayed, meaning he avoided prison.
...
How is it that a multiple gang-rapist walks free? As those of us who have engaged in the thankless task of trying to get American "prosecutors" to put career criminals behind bars well know, it all starts very butch - he's facing forty-seven felony charges each carrying a minimum sentence of twenty-nine years! - and then gets plea-dealed down to a couple of misdemeanours and an unpaid parking ticket. The County Attorney isn't talking, but her spokesperson - the usual pronoun-laden pajama boy - is defending the deal:

"Due to circumstances that cause difficulty in many criminal sexual conduct cases, these charges were the available and appropriate ones to secure a felony conviction," spokesperson Daniel Borgertpoepping told Fox 9.

Ooh, a "felony conviction"!!! That sounds scary!!!!!
A felony conviction should be scary.  But when asshats like this are running things, it means nothing.

And the Governor in charge of this, and these people, was picked for the Democrat Vice-President candidate.  God, what we dodged in this election.

About that poor bastard in Britain arrested for a photo

of him holding a gun in the US:
Incidents like this should concern every American gun owner. A man was arrested in his own country for a lawful photo taken in ours. That level of state control did not appear in the UK overnight. It arrived step by step, regulation by regulation, each justified as “reasonable.”

If we are not vigilant in the United States, in the courts, in Congress, and at the state level, the same slow creep can happen here. What happened in the UK is not an anomaly. It is the predictable end state of a culture and legal system that treats civilian gun ownership as a privilege to be curtailed instead of a right to be protected.
I'd go further: it's not just the right to arms, it's the very right to self-defense.  Their 'elites' don't like it, don't approve of it, and have created the situation in which it's not legal.  At all.  Not just discouraged, but "Yes, he had a knife/club and threatened you and your whoever, but you used more aggression than the Crown Prosecutor thinks was right, so you're off to prison."

And you can't speak what you think, because the cops have become the assholes they are who care more about going through social media looking for something offensive, somehow, to somebody, than they care for finding stolen cars and catching burglars.*

Freedoms interconnect.  And their and our 'elites' hate them.


*"Oi, mate, it so much safer than doing what's supposed to be our actual job!"
