    Ha, yes. The Journal's Op-Ed pages will have a rube-stroking article attacking the elites one day, then a defense of the dead white male literary canon the next day, with the implication that you haven't really lived if you don't know your Shakespeare and Milton.

    Not true. Trumps displays his art in his White House rooms. Like this fine hanging.

    To be fair, one of the GOP's mottos is from Milton - "Better to reign in Hell, than serve in Heaven.

  6. So a Norwegian man travels to the USA to surprise his father in law and gets blown apart with a semi automatic weapon.
    Long live the NRA.

    Devolution in full gear:
    "Earlier that evening, Dennis and another one of his relatives got into an argument after the relative came by the home and banged on the front door, according to police.

    When Bergan later arrived at the home to surprise Dennis, he banged on the back door without announcing himself. But Dennis thought Bergan was the relative with whom he had previously argued and opened his door while armed."

    This is telling about the mentality of an I dunno how large part of the US population. Or the insanity.

  8. Dunno where this vid is best placed, so in here I put it. It's a vlog from an American woman living for years now in the Netherlands talking about her anxiety when she's back in the States:

    Straightening hair, of course! Now I understand the real meaning of the Biblical practice of "anointing with oil in the Lord's name".

    That's going to be confusing for al-Jazeera readers, since "the Base" in Arabic is, IIRC, "al quada."

    So, when these guys meet up at the paramilitary training camp (actual quote from the article, but more likely just Steve's house, because his mom is out of town), do they look at each other and go, "oh yeah, we're the master race right here"?

    It’s always funny how these guys dress and act like they’re hard men. But when they have to feel some actual pain, they turn craven.

    For them to feel safe, others must feel unsafe.

    Well done, that is a more insightful point than mine. You are correct, the salient point of white nationalism is that it is not only "leave me alone," which every group that feels abused wants. It is that plus "I want you to feel worse than I do."

    Seeing these clowns out in the street with their weapons makes me want more gun control, not less. I wonder if other people have the same reaction?

    From what I am seeing, it looks like those dumbasses have been given a wide birth to protest. IOW, they have been separated from the rest of us. If only social media and the news would stop focusing on this so much. Hell, I didn't know about this until I heard an NPR story yesterday.
