Friends, for those of you having fun exploring your various options re: gender identity, there's exceptionally good news: the Guardian has shut down its Person of the Year online poll, because cisgender monster and trans-denier J.K. Rowling was in the lead. Bravo! We here at WaddyIsRight applaud the obliteration of free speech in the interests of diversity, equity, inclusion, yada yada. It's long been clear that making decisions democratically can lead to systemic nastiness. That's why we need to put the enlightened vanguard of Neo-Marxists in charge, and everyone else can tremble and obey! Amen. I mean, A-women? No no, that won't do. Circle back to me, okay?
In other news, the anti-democratic rhetoric of the Dems is reaching new heights every day, and their Trump terrors are getting the best of them. The irresponsibility of their claims is breahtaking...but where does it all lead? Maybe we don't want to know!?!!

Contrary to what you may have seen and heard from the MSM, America doesn't suck! In fact, despite the proliferation of wokery, there's still a lot to like about the USA. Check it out:

The title says it all: "Why China Got Away With It". Sad to say, but the article kinda writes itself too: China "got away with" COVID because China is big and rich and no one in the global elite wants to take it on.

What do you call a married couple walking alone on the beach, fully vaxxed and masked regardless? Lunatics, of course! Luckily for the Bidens, lunacy is in fashion this season.
How much does "Meta", a.k.a. Facebook, disapprove of "vaccine misinformation"? Enough to censor accurate information, unrelated to vaccines, just because it might be mistaken for vaccine heterodoxy. Like, if Trump were to say, "The sky is blue," everyone knows that what he really meant was "The COVID vaccines are filled with Chinese microchips, and you should storm the Capitol NOW!"
You may have heard that there's a big surge in children hospitalized with COVID. What you didn't hear is that the number of children hospitalized because of COVID is infinitesimally small. In other words, sealing off your kids in a COVID bubble is counterindicated by common sense!
Dr.Waddy from Jack: I wonder; is support for Marxism an addiction? There is certainly something in it which gets them old endorphins to bustling. Can it be Marx's assurance of relief from most past wisdom (excepting Rousseau, Kant and Hegel),its inconvenient empirical truths, its atavistic amalgamation of the same and its (gasp) diversity!? Marx argued that human affairs could be analysed and predicted using thd science which had already, by his time, generated astonishing insights! He himself, using these methods, had figured out history and its future course! Perhaps his revelations met mankind at a time seminal for such comprehensive insights! It sure did convince some,ehh,very decisive people. But it has since been definitively, indescribably catastrophically DISPROVEN in practice. So why does it endure , even unto existential threat to America itself?

ReplyDeleteDr. Waddy from Jack: Marx and his Leni
ReplyDeleteDr.Waddy from Jack: Marx's Leninist avatars advanced the principle that all "revolutionary" classes whom so ever they be, or so adjudged, had to be commanded by a small elite of scientifically proven and hence irrefutable intelligentsia ,
if necessary, executioners. Why, that mantle has been assumed by many sociopathic monsters to the extreme misery of hundreds of millions. Having been completely discredited in history, politics and economics, those yet, perhaps, addicted to this murderous dream, yet hold forth in gender and climate perception and policy attempted dictation!
Your question is a great one (as your questions tend to be)! Why DOES Marxism endure? At its core, I feel, is the assumption that anyone marginalized or less fortunate got that way because they are/were oppressed. That opens up endless possibilities for "liberating" the underlings. The problem, of course, is that the whole pardigm is simplistic and, usually, hypocritical, in that it's generally elements of the elite itself that advance Marxist schemes. There are, in short, so many holes in the theory that its stubborn persistence is a real puzzlement. I mean, why doesn't the elite favor more explicitly, transparently ELITIST ideologies? Is it because the elitists, as good modernists, actually hate themselves as much, or more than, their putative enemies? I honestly don't know, but I can't wait for the Marxist storm to pass!
ReplyDeleteDr.Waddy from Jack: Their proven record in power is that, oh yes they have their elites who not only "guide" the unwashed but who also make haste to make material and even voluptuary profit from their totalitarian power, while the exalted" "people" suffer the growing pains of the "perfect socialist" ehh, entity, whatsoever in which it consists at their comfortable elite's arbitrary pleasure! Oh dear Herr Marx, that pesky human nature. Too bad you did not witness the discreditation of your conviction that it was knowable through natural science and therefore equally malleable ( by Christ, oh yes, but you??!! Because you and Lenin execrated him, those tragically motivated by your ultimately proven insupportable conclusions, did incalculable evil to advance them!). But then, Herr Marx, since I am sure you would have celebrated the Jewish holocaust so how very much more evil can be presumed of you, ehh?
ReplyDeleteJack, are you suggesting that the only sure-fire way to destroy Marxism is to put the Marxists in charge? You may well be right!
ReplyDeleteDr.Waddy from Jack: A plague upon them!
