Deep State Fear in Two Tweets

Posted: December 20, 2024 by datechguy in Uncategorized

The Fear of the Deep State of Dealing with Reality can be illustrated in two tweets. This one from England where a parody song that has hit #1 is being censored because it hits the PM.

The Text of the tweet:

BBC refuses to play anti-Starmer Christmas song as it hits No 1 in downloads chart Freezing This Christmas, by Sir Starmer and the Granny Harmers, lampoons cutting of winter fuel payments for pensioners An anti-Sir Keir Starmer song has reached No 1 in the official singles downloads chart – but the BBC has so far refused to play it. Freezing This Christmas – which uses the melody of Mud’s 1974 hit Lonely This Christmas – lampoons the Government’s cutting of winter fuel payments for pensioners. Despite its surge to the top of the downloads chart, it has not had airtime on BBC radio stations. It was written by Chris Middleton, a freelance marketer and writer, under the mock band name Sir Starmer and the Granny Harmers, and all proceeds from sales will go toward charities supporting the elderly. The amateur songwriter said: “I would like them to play it – it’s in the downloads chart, so people obviously want to hear it.” Dean Ager, the singer on the track, has claimed the BBC’s refusal to play the song is “giving them bad publicity for being so biased”, urging the corporation to give it “proper airplay and stop denying the chance to raise money for charity and raise awareness”. https://telegraph.co.uk/politics/2024/12/19/bbc-refuses-to-play-anti-starmer-christmas-song/

It had been pulled from a Youtube site as well.

It speaks volumes that the BBC is afraid to allow an unpopular PM to be the subject of critique.

As for the US. As you’ve heard the 2nd CR only 115 pages this time vs 1500 was voted down with every single Democrat and thirty something republicans voting against.

The Dems are having a fit and I suspect this is why:

That statement of fact is a cause of real fear for the left. If people figure out that they don’t need the government for every little thing the entire Dem machine implodes.

I’ll give Glenn Reynolds the final word:

I say shut it down. Then on January 21, lay off all the “non-essential” employees because, hey, they’re not essential.

And note by the way, that nobody has asked still-sort-of-President Biden and oh-yeah-she’s-still-the-VP Kamala Harris about this.

Progressivism is a Totalitarian Religion

For the past several decades the political left in the United States has waged an all out war to eliminate all elements of Christianity from public view.  The most infamous example of this is the left’s war on Christmas.

Christmas has become the holiday that must not be named.  Nativity Scenes have been removed from government buildings.  Malls hardly have any decorations.  Schools across this country have banned all aspects of Christmas.

In the 1960s the Bible was banned from schools along with religious education.  No one is allowed to utter anything religious at commencement ceremonies.

The political left in the United States despises Christianity so fervently because its adherents do not want any competition from other religions.  Progressivism is their dominant belief system. 

Progressivism is most definitely the official religion of the political left in this nation.  I copied three definitions of religion from the Merriam Webster dictionary so you can see for yourself if Progressivism is in fact a religion.

a personal set or institutionalized system of religious attitudes, beliefs, and practices

a cause, principle, or system of beliefs held to with ardor and faith

scrupulous conformity

I would define religion as a belief system based on faith rather then science or verifiable facts.  If you ever had a conversation with some one who identifies as a liberal or a progressive it would become obvious that Progressivism is a belief system entirely devoid of verifiable facts.  They believe what they have been indoctrinated into believing.  Debating with leftist using facts and logic is pointless.

Progressivism is a top down, all encompassing political belief system.  Because of that it is similar to Islam.  All aspects of life come under the control of Progressivism. This includes speech, healthcare, food, cars, the economy, every product you can buy, and what you believe.

Like all political philosophies of the left, progressivism is a collectivist belief system.  Individuals are not allowed to think for themselves or decide anything for themselves.  Progressivism is entirely groupthink. Individuals do not matter.  All that matters is group identity politics.

The political left here has worked hard to establish Progressivism as the official religion of the United States, in direct violation of the Establishment of Religion Clause of the First Amendment. This was never attempted by Christians.  All Christians want to do is freely exercise their religious beliefs, which is protected by the Free Exercise of Religion Clause of the First Amendment.

Collin Rugg summed it up pretty neatly:

In case the embed doesn’t take (that’s happened a lot since Musk bought twitter (unexpectedly of course).

I’m not sure if people have truly grasped the power of X. The House was set to pass a BS spending bill. After just a few hours of posting on X by Musk & X users, the bill was effectively killed… potentially saving the US taxpayer billions of dollars.

This tells me that the era of needed a bunch of people to show up on capital hill to make people fear voter is also gone. If we can generate the fear of God from here that will save a lot of time and effort and might even save the country. That’s the good news

The bad news is the very fact that Speaker Johnson started in this direction tells me a lot of the GOP caucus still wants to play by the old rules and is going to have to be dragged kicking and screaming into actually serving the American people.

This illustrates the most important reality of the final Trump term. The last election didn’t save the country, it give us the chance to do so.

Of COURSE the Obama People Were All Grifters He’s a Chicago Pol!

John McClane: Welcome to the Party Pal

Die Hard 1988

6th Doctor: Money! This is all about Money. Filthy Luce.

Doctor Who, The Condemned 2007 Big Finish

Seriously?

‘The people that are responsible for this s**tshow are the Obama people. They’re just grifters,’ a well-connected Democratic donor exclusively told Daily Mail.

You have a guy with almost no political experience. who comes out of the combined camps of Marxism who live for the utilization of the useful idiot, and the Chicago Machine who if not the inventors of the corrupt machine pol on the take are the foremost practices of that genre still active in existence and it takes you till the last weeks of the Obama people running the Biden Administration to figure out these guys are basically all grifters?

He singled out Jen O’Malley Dillon, who went from Biden 2024 campaign chair to serve in the same role for Harris’s camp, and David Plouffe, an ex-Obama 2008 campaign manager turned top Kamala adviser.

Deep-pocketed lefty patrons are enraged by Plouffe’s post-election admission that Harris never led Trump in their internal campaign polling, despite public surveys showing her ahead.

‘[Polls] came out in late September, early October, showing us with leads that we never saw,’ Plouffe revealed late last month on the Democrat-friendly podcast ‘Pod Save America.’

‘They lied to us. It’s just a circus of lies,’ the donor erupted, complaining that Harris’ team regularly painted a much rosier picture when speaking to supporters who were signing big checks.

Via Ace and a closing thought:

Biden of course was a corrupt grifter long before Obama was around and there were plenty of other grifters in the parties before this but I was taking to a friend yesterday, a reluctant Trump voter who was driven over the line by the left. He discussed an interview with George Bush Sr. who discussed his dad Prescott’s relationship with LBJ who was a very corrupt pol. He said he liked him and they got along because although they were on the other side and he would beat you and pressure you he never lied to you. He was up front about things, told you what he would do and did them.

When you redefine truth bad things happen
