My Throat Closes Involuntarily (If I Think They're Doing It To Us On Purpose)

Every night, on every channel but FOX (which is it's own nightmare) they're showing leftist propaganda, like this Stephen Colbert clip, where he frames Republicans as being "cowardly" rather than principled - because they turned their backs to the Democrats shamefully lying on the floor of the U.S. Senate. Once you're aware of how those in the media "work", and their willingness to do it, to actually twist reality 180 degrees - and they're doing it on almost every channel - it becomes hard to watch TV without gagging. 

 Or maybe that's just me.

 

Kamala Harris Is From The Most Liberal City In America And It's Showing The Nation Exactly What A Vote For Joe Biden Has In Store (For The Rest Of Us)

 

After seeing those photos of Kamala Harris with Montel Williams, I expected to see other criminals working in broad daylight in San Francisco (where she used to police) because those are Montel's ethics on display. Nobody has a problem with crime there - not even her.

As long as it's on a TV screen.

 

NY's First Family Is The Equivalent To A Bag Of "Dog Chow" (For The Hungry)

How the NewAge Nazi Democrats run shit is obvious - for instance:

As New York Governor Andrew Cuomo dissed the President, to cover for massively undercounting the nursing home deaths in his state,...

...his stupid brother, CNN News anchor Chris Cuomo, was on national television, also lying to us daily about the tragedy,...

...as his wife, the dedicated NewAger, Cristina Cuomo, was also lying, and capitalizing on COVID-19, by spreading misinformation online.

And you wonder what all their "training" at isolated seminars and retreats are for? It's ain't ETHICS, my friends, that's for sure.

 

Cry, Bitch

 

“The Vow” started slowly. The first episode is entirely devoted to the beliefs of the Executive Success Program (ESP), the therapy-esque self-improvement curriculum operated by NXIVM....it did the work of demonstrating how smart, grounded people end up joining cults: by searching for meaning, for connection, for self-improvement. Showing viewers just how easy that process actually is was important...“The world wants to label it and judge and separate themselves from it, like ‘Oh my god, that’s terrible I would never do that.’ Sorry for my valley girl voice. ‘Keith is so evil.’ But if you do that, it doesn’t give the audience the chance to go, ‘I get it. I could see how I would have signed up for that.” 

I was turned off by "The Vow" - right from the start - because I could NOT see myself signing up for it, or any course like it. I never have, I never will, and, as far as the cult members are concerned - while "smart, grounded" self-flattering suckers might've alienated me in the past - I'm allergic to them today. I am NOT and never have been searching for meaning, or connection, or self-improvement. I'm searching for rational people, and I can't find any.

 

Music, Mother, McBride: Three Great TV Shows To Watch While In Lockdown

With artists from the worlds of Country and Funk (so far, along with their friends, and business associates) retelling stories from the road about the biggest stars in the musical universe, Cinemax's "Mike Judge Presents: Tales from the Tour Bus" has been a favorite lately. See Johnny Cash and Waylon Jennings as roommates, or Prince making Rick James nervous, or that one time James Brown forced Bootsy Collins to give him some LSD by accident - actually there's a LOT of guns and LSD in this show. That's the music world. It's still a revelation, even if you're a musicologist and think you know these artists well, because with Mike Judge (of "King of the Hill", "Beevis & Butthead", and "Office Space" fame) as narrator, it will always find the humanity in each new absurdity, and in equal measure. And that's a treasure, to be treasured. Please watch this program.

The new Sci-Fi epic "Raised By Wolves" has been mentioned here before, because the first episode was on YouTube as a teaser, and it's lead character - the android "Mother" - is quite the tasty morsel. Unfortunately, the entire HBO Max series still hasn't been screened, but, if this opener is any indication of the quality of the rest, that's an oversight in need of quick correcting, by us all. Get on it. 

The best of the lot. Trying to tell a serious tale of American slavery - with humor and humanity - now that's a challenge. But, it's one that was finally conquered as soon as Ethan Hawke grew a beard to play the great abolitionist "crazy" John Browne in Showtime's fine production of James McBride's "The Good Lord Bird". The first TV show, in a long time, worth pining for new episodes to drop, the ending (after just six) is as sad as it is inevitable, but also as joyful for the same reason: the Civil War was coming, just as he said, and then we'd all be free. So watch this show, and be free - now: It'll make you glad to be an American again. 

I'll Believe Sports Fans Are Offended - On Behalf Of Veterans - By Black Anthem Protests Whenever There Are No More Homeless Veterans On America's Streets

I've seen so many white guys teasing veterans for their poverty, that, to imagine most whites care about anything, but trying to get one over on others - no matter who they are - is a real stretch. Except in the case of Dale Hansen. The man lays it on the line, loud-and-clear, so everyone knows where he stands. And he's loved.

Suspending Oprah from television would've made more sense, but, I'll take it:

Docu-Mentoring

The more I insist cultism is an influential cultural phenomena - and (mental) slavery - the more I get pooh-poohed, but Netflix doesn't seem too confused:

New Netflix documentary series explores "The Criminal Mind" and includes episode about "Cult Leaders"

Now if only the public could get onboard, we might start getting somewhere.

The Mystery That Only Deepens

All the first quotes are from Lisa Oz's Wikipedia page:

"Lisa Oz is an American producer, and frequent co-host of The Dr. Oz Show on the Oprah and Friends XM radio telecasts...."

BUT

[Oprah] may be the most powerful crank enabler on the planet.

- Vox, 2018

"[Lisa Oz] is a Reiki master..."

BUT

Reiki is a pseudoscience.

- Wikipedia

"[Lisa Oz] is co-producer of the Dr. Oz Show and credited with the idea for the television show as a way 'practicing preventive medicine on a grand scale'..."

BUT

Scientists tallied up all the advice on Dr. Oz's show. Half of it was baseless or wrong.

- Vox, 2014

"In 2011-2012 She collaborated...in narrating the documentary film Genetic Roulette—The Gamble of Our Lives asserting health risks from GMO foods...."

BUT

Are you anti-GMO? Then you’re anti-science, too.

- The Washington Post, 2018

AND

"According to the New York Times, Lisa Oz's mother 'believed fervently in New Age approaches like homeopathic remedies and meditation' and also introduced her husband to 'alternative medicine and Eastern mysticism' which he now integrates into his advice programs."

BUT

Cancer patients who use alternative medicine die sooner

- Edzard Ernst MD, PhD, FMedSci, FRSB, FRCP, FRCPEd, 2013

But - Even After A Congressional Inquiry - No One Can Figure Out Why Dr. Oz Is A Quack!!!

Wisconsin's Black "People's Sheriff" For Whites Gets It

This may-or-may-not be Ann Althouse

"If the sheriff truly wants to help us, it’s time for him to prove that he’s more than just another partisan agitator with a badge and a cowboy hat. The self-proclaimed 'people’s sheriff' needs to drop the sideshow act and get serious. Until then, I can only wonder if Sheriff Clarke is still a lawman or just a guy who plays one on TV."

Andy Levy: A Conservative Who Understands Racism

There they are, a bunch of white people - knowing they're being heard but still making light of a very serious topic to blacks - and then, BOOM, they discover an interloper in the midst of their racism (as well as a flaw in their conception of democracy) and, oh my God, what in the world's going to happen to America now? Stay tuned,...
