Hi Ho Hi Ho Off Disney’s Tax Breaks Go…

If you’re not old enough to buy a Margarita you’re not old enough to decide to become ‘Margarita’

My Pastor at Breakfast yesterday

E.K Hornbeck: Tell me, uh, what do you think. of all these Monkeyshines?

Hotdog Vendor:  Got no opinion, sir. Opinions are bad for business.

Inherit the Wind 1960

Think about it.

Just sixty days ago if anyone had said there was even the slightest possibility of Florida Pols voting away Disney’s State tax breaks they would have laughed you off the face of the earth. After all as Breitbart noted in their article on the subject:

It should be noted Disney employs 38 lobbyists in Florida and has a strong hold on state Democrats and establishment Republicans.

Yet within 24 hours both the Florida Senate and the Florida House passed bills revoking the Ready Creek Agreement that made Disney a self governing organization within the state.

How could this be? Well the 1st cause of this was the bubble. That’s one of the few advantages of being a conservative Catholic living in one of only four states that give Joe Biden a positive approval rating. You can’t insulate yourself things that are right in front of your face.

Alas for Disney this is not the case for their board. They live in the liberal, twitter LGBTQ bubble and within that bubble the rules are very strict and if you don’t jump when you are told you risk being pushed out of your comfortable space within said bubble.

So when the left decided that they could not abide 5-8 year olds not having Queer theory pushed on them and dubbed Florida’s law on waiting until at least age 9 before such things were taught to kids they framed their narrative in such a way that CEO  Bob Chapek feared retaliation for saying nothing:

Mind you he didn’t fear retaliation from stockholders or customers, nor did he fear retaliation from employees or the people of Florida who MSNBC contributors not withstanding both supported the bill in question (a full 58% of Florida democrats did) no he feared personal retaliation and being others within his own social group.

But in the end no matter how bad it gets for Disney shareholders, no matter how much things tank, no matter how much it costs the company and or their employees, Bob will know that the people who matter, the leftist elites will still invite him to the right parties.

And for leftists and those who fear them who live in the land of the bubble that’s what really counts.

Five Libs of Tik Tok Thoughts Under the Fedora

Posted: April 21, 2022 by datechguy in Uncategorized

it’s generally a bad idea for a Newspaper to be caught in a straight out lie but the Washington Post managed to do so here:

https://twitter.com/libsoftiktok/status/1516534502213840897?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1516534502213840897%7Ctwgr%5E%7Ctwcon%5Es1_&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fdonsurber.blogspot.com%2F2022%2F04%2Fhighlights-of-news_01812107177.html

On the plus side being owned by a billionaire means you can likely pay out any lawsuit something like that produces.

Again looking on the bright side of this for the Post from this story, a newspaper wants to make people think they are relevant and the post has certainly demonstrated that they can make a story or a subject visible.

The number of followers of the twitter account Libs of TikTok has as of this morning increased by more than 25% and counting and the videos made by the various liberals she is highlighting are getting a lot more views. None of this would have been possible without the efforts of the Washington Post so I guess this proves the relevance of the MSM to some degree still exists.

Another interesting point if the post wants to focus on the bright side of life is this. For the last week we have seen the Post and other liberal sites insist that the purchase of Twitter by Billionaire Elon Musk is a dangerous thing as it will promote standards that are contrary to the good of the country.

The Post story on the Libs of TikTok account and the attempt to intimidate and put in danger the Orthodox Jewish lady who runs it is a perfect demonstration of the dangers they are trying to illustrate: Don’t let Twitter get bought by a billionaire or they’ll become assholes without standards, just like us.

Not the method I’d use to make the point but hey it’s his paper.

What really struck me about the whole thing is that what the Libs of TikTok basically did was tweet out videos that leftists had willingly and deliberately put out on a public social media forum and exposed it to a larger audience.

Nothing get the left more upset than people seeing them as they are, and apparently as they are is pretty nasty. Remember this is why Stacy McCain was banned from twitter years ago for the crime of directly quoting liberals and letting people who might not have seen what they’ve said see it.

It’s all: Look at me, look at me and then: How dare you look at me!

Of course the funniest thing are the cries that this is an attack on the LGBTQ community and the implication that this is reinforcing negative stereotypes.

Shouldn’t they be angry at the people in the videos who made the videos and put them up on the net to be seen? Aren’t they by showing themselves as they are the culprits here?

What’s really making them angry is how it removes the plausible deniability from the various school districts, school boards and leftist pols who can’t pretend that these people in the videos are not the groomers people say they are.

Even better will be the number of people who pick up this standard

The Single Best Argument for Abortion and Birth Control I Have Heard in Years…

…is Taylor Lorentz claiming to have PTSD from being a Washington Post Journalist during a visit to MSNBC:

I mean yeah, police, firemen, soldiers, nurses and the people of Ukraine might have to deal with death, destruction and life and death on a daily basis, but that’s NOTHING compared to the nasty feedback she gets from doing things like Doxing the “libs of tic tock” account person who has the audacity to take videos that people deliberately put on a public worldwide forum and post them on a public worldwide forum.

I mean can you imagine how the children of such a woman would be prepared for life? Can you imagine them being able to cope with anything with such a person as their primary role model?

Granted abortion is murder and Birth Control is a sin and every person is made in the image of God (including Ms Lorenz) and with God all things are possible but if I was the left and wanted to try to persuade people that Abortion should be an option I’d put her on the posters saying: “Do you really want people like this raising children?”

All kidding aside Ms. Lorenz reminds me of something else.

Could you imagine the reaction if a male reporter claimed PTSD over online feedback?

Our “betters” keep telling us that women are men are equal yet we keep hearing stories about how hard women have it or their inability to cope.

So which is it elites? Are woman just as strong, tough and competent as men or are in need of special protection? Choose one.

(In fairness to our elites as they can’t define “woman” or “man” this question might be too much for them.

Question: What’s the Difference between being a January 6th Defendant and a Suspect in a Mass Shooting in North Carolina?

Posted: April 19, 2022 by datechguy in Uncategorized

Answer: If you’re a mass shooter in North Carolina you can make bail:

The man accused of opening fire during a mass shooting at the Columbiana Centre mall in Columbia has posted bail after a hearing Sunday afternoon, WLTX-TV reported.

A South Carolina judge announced that Jewayne M. Price, 22, would be granted a surety bond of $25,000 and be required to wear an ankle monitor, the television station reported. He must also have no contact with anyone involved in the incident and must stay away from the shopping mall, according to WLTX.

Hey at least law enforcement is taking an interest unlike the Antifa rioters who they have no interest in prosecuting in the Northwest.

I predict that it won’t even take a week for him to be forgotten like Frank James. Doesn’t serve the narrative.
