The Paranoid Style: Red Scares & Scary Sharia

From the first Red Scare, cover date Sep't. 1954.

History Lessons: Same Idiotic Shit, Different Day

Unpopular Front on the "Little Red Scare 2.0"

To the New Right, this abolition was unilateral disarmament in the still-frosty Cold War—and it removed a valuable cudgel against the domestic left. The Heritage Foundation’s Mandate for Leadership transition plan called to “revive the committees"“ and to rebuild of the internal security apparatus to battle domestic subversion, warning that clergymen, students, businessmen, entertainers, labor officials, journalists and government workers may engage in subversive activity "without being fully aware of the extent, purpose or control of their activities," and that individual liberties are "secondary to the requirement of national security and internal civil order.” The author of this section was one Samuel T. Francis, whothe would go on to be a staffer for [Sen.] John East.

The absolute joke that is fear of "Sharia law" is revealed by (non-) reaction to the Saud family's investment in the creation of the Paramount/WB/Discovery media cartel. All lies & hypocrisy.

Future book title: Lying Sacks of Shit & The Sucker-Ass Chumps Who Believe Them. Could be a long one.

Note to self: Stop looking at the damn iNternet, seeing how stupid & shitty everything is, & thinking you have to type something. Remember, no one cares! Back to your second childhood, & to hell w/ the rest of this miserable world!

Summer Re-Run Time

So effing exhausted, & sick & tired of typing crap here for neither reason nor reward. And of course every time I express myself &/or the truth I am at risk of being taken into custody & condemned to the psychiatric gulag, Soviet-style. What a shithole country. Proud of yourselves? Or just so fucking dense you have no fucking idea what's going on around you?

Here's a good one, from October 2009:

"Easy". Same paranoid sissy-pants bullshit for decades. You fucking cretins, I despise you all!!

Communism Is On The March Again!

And I Am A Gargantuan Electric Comm-u-niss Golem!

Big thanks to Trump, Rubio, et al., for reviving the International Communist Menace.

United States Department of State:
Cuba: The Capital of 21st Century Communism
Frances Martel / Breitbart:   State Dept: Cuba Set ‘Infiltrating American Universities as a Top Priority,’ Fueling Campus Unrest

Noah Rothman / National Review:   In Trump's Campaign Against ‘Third Worldism,’ Cuba Is at the Center

Sharon Zhang / Truthout:   As Trump Threatens Invasion, Admin Releases Report Vilifying Cuba and the Left

Andy Ngo / The Post Millennial:   ANDY NGO REPORTS: State Department links Antifa's lawyers to decades of Cuban communist influence

Don Feder / Washington Times:   Fight communism now — or buy a parrot

These stupid jerks are trying to scare the chumps about Cuba. Yes, Cuba, giant, powerful Commie island to the south, & its "influence" & "infiltration".Here we come, capitalist pigs!

Also on the subject, from The Rude Pundit.

Rubio is promising that the administration is going to be naming more groups as "terrorist organizations" and going after their funding, which they claim comes from foreign governments. The ideological criteria is broad: "This is what radical leftism is.  It may wear various different slogans and ideologies across place and time.  They can call themselves anti-capitalist or anti-imperialist or communist or anarchist or Marxist." Except it's not illegal to believe any of those things. You can be a communist in the United States. It's allowed. Or it used to be.

And the net is going to get wider and wider and "communist" is going to mean "wants health care for everyone," and this effort is going to work hand-in-hand with the voter suppression efforts, one being used as an excuse for the enforcement of the other. Rubio teed it all up: the coming pretext to destroy everyone on the left.

Top Ten All-American Hellhole States

These are America’s 10 worst states to live in for 2026

States of the former Confederacy, plus Oklahoma, Utah (not a state then) & Indiana; somewhat surprising until I remembered it was a Klan hotspot in the 1920s.

The Ku Klux Klan held immense political and social power in Indiana during the 1920s, with an estimated 300,000 members—representing roughly a third of the state's native-born white male population.

Guessing all these hellholes have Republicans as Goobernators & legislatures dominated by idiotic right-wingers.

And the biggest loser is:

America’s Worst Place to Live in 2026: Tennessee

And I'd heard so much about Nashville being a "hot", burgeoning cultural center, like Branson, MO but w/ less Jesus. Great for crackers, sure.

Tennessee Republicans, led by Gov. Bill Lee, make no apologies for a rash of state laws targeting the LGBTQ+ community, including a so-called “bathroom law” requiring transgender people to use the facilities designated for their sex at birth. The state also explicitly bars localities from adopting their own antidiscrimination ordinances. To underscore the point, Lee signed a resolution earlier this year designating June “Nuclear Family Month.”

“The nuclear family, consisting of one husband, one wife, and any biological, adopted, or fostered children, is God’s design for familial structure and has been the bedrock of society since the creation of the world,” the resolution states.

Its sponsors deliberately timed the observance to coincide with the month when Tennessee’s more than 300,000 LGBTQ+ people celebrate Pride.

Inclusiveness isn’t the only area where the Volunteer State falls short. Tennessee also has one of the highest violent crime rates in the nation, according to FBI statistics. And it has the third-highest rate of drug deaths, according to the United Health Foundation.

Who'd a thunk CNBC would be full of low-T lib sissies who are so concerned about the pervs?

Sunday Evening I Got Nothing Musical Filler

Lively your sucker asses up w/ some 40-50 yr.-old classics, chumps.They don't make 'em like that anymore, & why should they? It's all been done.

House Of Socialist Horrors Frightens Usual Suspects

Abolish All Institutions!!

All violent language & name-calling: "Wrecks". "Brutal". "Moron". That certainly refutes her point, other than it being true.

Un-democratic institutions like the Senate & Supreme Court that are "key" to keeping Whitey, the aristocrats & other scum in power should absolutely be abolished, & the sooner the better. That puts their undies in the proverbial twist, & it's why anything that keeps Democrats out of office will be legitimate in their eyes. Are you scared yet?

Eff You & The Yacht You Sailed In On!!

Protesters in Venice have clashed with police over the presence of a luxury yacht owned by U.S. ambassador Tilman Fertitta. They see it as a symbol of American wealth and influence. Fertitta's yacht is part of a coastal diplomacy tour marking the 250th anniversary of American independence. (AP video shot by: Niccolo Lupone)

"Low-T": EAIAC

Handsome Dick Manitoba is thrice the man Pete Hegseth wishes he were.

I wasn’t ready for this. ☠️ 😭

Low T Pete will never live this down. pic.twitter.com/gQ4k4vwv9R

Sky Dancing has more on testosterone obsession, about half-way down the page. These people are ignernt & crazy.

Some physicians and researchers questioned the move and said some of Hegseth’s statements on testosterone Wednesday were not backed by research. Testosterone levels vary naturally over time, and it is unusual to screen patients for low testosterone unless there are symptoms, they said.

“This is non-evidence-based and could cause harm,” said Adriane Fugh-Berman, a professor in the department of pharmacology and physiology at Georgetown University.

Pin-dicked closet cases, every one.

The framing fits neatly within a growing trend of hormonal obsession on the right. Over the past several years, in corners of the internet, media, and politics devoted to an exacting vision of masculine supremacy, testosterone has become a substance of mythical importance. Calling a political opponent or message-board adversary “low-T” is the new “soy boy,” “beta,” or “gay.” Right-wing influencers are touting dubious pills that promise to increase testosterone production for more energy, bigger muscles, and better boners. The Trump administration is bragging that the president has the highest T level Dr. Oz has ever seen in a man over 70.

All this is befitting of a political movement that wants to eliminate gender-affirming medical care and gets its health advice from the supplement ads on Tucker Carlson’s podcast. In the eyes of Hegseth and his peers, testosterone isn’t just a sex hormone present in most human beings or a potential gauge of underlying health issues. It’s a magic manly potion, an indisputable indicator of sexual power, a tool for turning matcha-swilling weaklings into musclebound superheroes incapable of expressing any emotion but rage.

Funny, I doubt if there's any testeosterone left in my wretched body, but I can assure you I am a blue-hot ball of screaming rage!

More Music To Lay Track By, More Often

The wailing continues. As does the pounding of nails. I like to imagine I'm beating a Republican w/ a hammer each time I drive a nail home. Relieves the boredom.

Telling The Truth

From The Hill, via Attention To The Unseen. This may raise a stink among certain elements. The truth hurts.

House Democrat: Hegseth testosterone screenings indicative of ‘homoeroticism’

The New England Democrat added that the Defense chief is the “embodiment” of the style of hypermasculine, homoerotic art drawn by Finnish artist Touko Valio Laaksonen, better known as Tom of Finland.

“So I feel like they must be looking at that [Tom of Finland’s art] as like their example for what men look like,” Balint said.

No, really? Could explain why none of them like girls. One might even wonder if this were a peculiar & pathetic means of trying to get women out of the military.

The actual testosterone story, as opposed to what these simpletons believe it to be. Essentially, a pointless exercise for most.

Friday Freak Out

Very Excited

Not sure I can stand it! Assembled something electric that works as intended! Only took about an hr. & a half to make the 10 connections. The switch machine's been sitting around for yrs. because the power pack I had didn't have AC terminals for accessories.

Even better, it works when attached to the switch.

Will it work when it's back in the track? No reason to think it won't, but we'll have to wait until it's painted to be sure.

Here Come The Nazis. Again.

Rubio is convinced he's Cap't. America defying the Communist hordes.
More like Bucky if you ask me.

Hey, "Defenders of Civilization", it's not 1914 anymore.
