Post #1 (October 11, 2019) – Anti-fascist or fascists?

# data[].attributes.body
Antifa is an organization that was started in the 1920s to fight fascists but over time they have began fighting a new war. These so called anti fascists in the beginning of the 20th century fought against Hitler side by side with America. Today these liars are causing havoc in cities around the world with anyone who disagrees with them, especially the state and republicans. Antifa now is a terrorist organization that fights against rule of law and hope for a communist uprising. This group has globalized over the last decade but it has lost its roots in fighting fascists and now has become the fascists themselves silencing anyone in their way.

Portland, Ore.

'No hate! No fear!" chanted the left-wing crowd as they marched downtown Saturday. I walked to the front of the line to record the protesters with my new GoPro camera when I was suddenly slammed on the back of my head with something hard. Dazed and still hearing faint chants of "no hate," I was then punched and kicked by perhaps a dozen masked people in black. At an Antifa event meant to resist "fascist violence," I-a gay journalist of color-was beaten so badly that I was hospitalized for a brain hemorrhage....

Post #2 (October 11, 2019) – The Green New Deal is a Communist Dream

# data[].attributes.body
Karl Marx ideas have spread around the world and along with them death destruction and slavery has followed. Today Marx and his ideas are prevalent in places like Europe China Africa and Latin America. Who would have ever thought just 40 years after Reagan defeat of the Red Army and the fall of the Berlin Wall that Americans would be so for socialism and the steps that led other foreign nations to be 3rd world countries. This article shows how each piece of the Green New Deal is stolen from Marx's Communist Manifesto. Communists have hijacked seats in congress and now they have hijacked climate change. This worldwide push for the Green New Deal is in reality a global push for communism.

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
A 21st-century take on Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels' Communist Manifesto was introduced in the form of a nonbinding resolution introduced by Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) and Sen. Ed Markey (D-Mass.). The resolution effectively does nothing other than express the sense that Congress should pass a so-called "Green New Deal" whose wholly unattainable goals would almost certainly wreak havoc on the economy and drive the United States further into debt.

The term "insane" understates how bad the ideas presented in this resolution really are. Both the Green New Deal resolution and the FAQ document released with it read like something concocted in a drunken haze in a college dorm room. Although it's certainly imaginative, it's not remotely close to serious public policy. Perhaps that explains why Rep. Ocasio-Cortez removed the documents from her congressional website.

Although the resolution isn't a serious public policy proposal, conservatives and libertarians do need to take it seriously. Why? Because this is how far to the left the Democratic Party has drifted. Although some wave the banner of "democratic socialism," others who share socialist ideals avoid the label that Rep. Ocasio-Cortez claims by identifying as "progressives" who support green policies. When one peels back the initial layer of green, the same tired and failed ideas of socialism are there.

The resolution begins with basic findings. Rep. Ocasio-Cortez and Sen. Markey take the most recent report from the United Nations' International Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) as though it was handed down from God to Moses on Mount Sinai on stone tablets. Although humans do contribute to climate change, many of the IPCC's previous claims have been proven wrong. Remember, it was just 2007 when the IPCC warned that the world had only eight years to avoid the worst effects of climate change. The most recent report, released in October 2018, claims that we have 12 years to avoid the worst of climate change. When proven inaccurate, just move the goalposts.

Rep. Ocasio-Cortez and Sen. Markey complain that the United States is "responsible for a disproportionate amount of greenhouse gas emissions, having emitted 20 percent of global greenhouse gas emissions through 2014." Well, during periods of increased prosperity, emissions have been higher. Emissions have declined during periods of slow growth and recessions. As recently as 2017, the United States saw a decline in greenhouse gas emissions.

Eventually, Rep. Ocasio-Cortez and Sen. Markey offer a long list of things Congress should do in a so-called "Green New Deal." The resolution is chock full of policy recommendations that radical environmentalists have long demanded. Rep. Ocasio-Cortez and Sen. Markey want the United States to "achieve net-zero greenhouse gas emissions" by eliminating fossil fuels. The Green New Deal FAQs document also states that the United States should also eliminate nuclear energy, although the resolution itself doesn't include such language.

The goal of this aspect of the Green New Deal is to transition the economy to renewable energy. If that sounds too good to be true, that's because it is. Under the Paris Agreement, from which the United States withdrew, Americans were expected to see $2.5 trillion in lost gross domestic product (GDP), the loss of some 400,000 jobs, and an increase in energy costs between 13 and 20 percent. On top of that, the U.S. has led the world in carbon emissions reduction since withdrawing from the agreement. The difference between the Paris Agreement and the Green New Deal is that the Paris Agreement, by comparison, wouldn't have been nearly as economically destructive.

Americans have a love affair with their vehicles. But under the Green New Deal, that car you're so proud of would be banned. Since the economy will transition away from fossil fuels, your gas-powered vehicle must be given up for an electric vehicle. Forget about the trade-in value; it's not like the dealership can resell your old car.

Rep. Ocasio-Cortez and Sen. Markey would have Congress invest heavily in high-speed rail. Again, that may sound great, but high-speed rail has proven to be nothing short of a boondoggle in the United States. Take California's high-speed rail system. This project is years behind schedule and far more expensive than originally projecting, now estimated to cost $100 billion. Although the Green New Deal promises to ensure that the power of eminent domain doesn't abuse, Rep. Ocasio-Cortez and Sen. Markey fail to explain how they expect to protect private property while also building costly high-speed rail lines across the country, which would require land acquisition through eminent domain on a massive scale.

International travel would, presumably, become impossible. Those occasional steak dinners you enjoy might be a thing of the past, too. Although the resolution doesn't explicitly say this, the Green New Deal FAQs document, no joke, states that the sponsors of the resolution "aren't sure that we'll be able to fully get rid of farting cows and airplanes that fast." Cows, by the way, emit methane primarily through belching, not flatulence. Livestock represents nearly 3 percent of greenhouse gas emissions in the United States, according to the Environmental Protection Agency.

Another wild idea from the resolution is the goal of "upgrading all existing buildings in the United States and building new buildings." The FAQs for the resolution are more straightforward. That document states that the goal is to "[u]pgrade or replace every building in U.S. for state-of-the-art energy efficiency." There are, uh, a lot of buildings in the United States. The resolution doesn't specify which buildings would need to be upgraded or rebuilt. According to the U.S. Energy Information Administration, "there were 5.6 million commercial buildings in the United States in 2012, comprising 87 billion square feet of floorspace." The cost of this would be immense.

The Green New Deal resolution also includes other leftist policy priorities, such as guarantees of "high-quality health care," "safe, affordable, and adequate housing," and "economic security." The resolution doesn't explicitly state this, but the FAQs document states that the federal government will provide "economic security" to those who are "unwilling to work." This is socialism. If you're completely able-bodied, but you're too lazy to work, the producers in the economy -- well, the few who are left under the Green New Deal -- will pick up your tab. That's not okay.

Finally, there's the cost of this incoherent, ridiculous monstrosity. The Green New Deal resolution calls for heavy "investments" by the government, claiming that "World War II and the New Deal created the greatest middle class that the United States has ever seen." Well, Rep. Ocasio-Cortez and Sen. Markey are very wrong about the New Deal. President Franklin D. Roosevelt's Treasury secretary, Henry Morgenthau, Jr., told the House Ways and Means Committee in May 1939, "We have tried spending money. We are spending more than we have ever spent before and it does not work."

The FAQs document claims that the United States "invested 40-50% of GDP into our economy" during World War II. It's true that federal spending rose dramatically between 1942 and 1945, peaking at 42.7 percent of GDP in 1944. Of course, the United States was fighting a major war at the time. Spending declined immediately after the war ended. By 1948, federal spending was 11.3 percent of the economy. Federal spending as a percentage of the economy didn't rise above 20 percent again until 1975.

In 2019, the Congressional Budget Office projects that federal spending will consume about 20.8 percent of GDP, or about $4.4 trillion. It appears that the sponsors of the resolution are suggesting that Congress more than double federal spending, pushing federal spending around $9 trillion to cover the cost of this unrealistic, incoherent, and absurd plan.

The Green New Deal has already drawn the support of several Democratic presidential hopefuls, including Sens. Cory Booker (D-N.J.), Kamala Harris (D-Calif.), Kirsten Gillibrand (D- N.Y.), and Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.). After reading through the Green New Deal resolution and FAQs document, one has to wonder if these Democrats regret that decision.

Post #3 (October 11, 2019) – IMF, more liberal than expected...?

# data[].attributes.body
The IMF is taking new steps as it makes new statements regarding global warming and actions that could be taken to calm its effects. The evil IMF now is in support of doing something about cutting climate demolitions. The IMF recommended Carbon Taxes and other means of cutting emissions for our planet. The IMF is looked down upon by many people in our class and that is why I picked this article. The IMF may loan people money who need and and ask to be paid back, which some people dislike, but they also have the ability to make a change with the large funds they have and by their power to force nations to use loaned money in more planet safe ways.

Fascists or democracy? NBA coach brushes off moral problems in china with recommendation that America is bad. China, the people who put Muslims in jail by the millions, has now blocked NBA games from being aired in China because one coach stood up to china by posting stand up for Hong Kong post on twitter. After the NBA was banished by china the NBA apologized to china while claiming our president is a soulless coward. The NBA are soulless cowards for giving into china all over money. If the NBA dose not suck up to china they will loose out on the revenue they could make off the 300,000,000 recreational basketball players in China. I chose this report because China money has bought out many of our great American made companies. Nike shoes are in control of basketball in America now and they are being run by china.

We live, as you may have noticed, in the age of " woke" capital. They're not just selling products, they are selling something more than that, and you see it everywhere.

You see it in every movie, every commercial, and every press release from the diversity division of your local HR department. The message is always the same. Companies aren't just soulless profit-seekers; they are more than that. They have values. They have principles. They care. They care probably more than you do.

Once upon a time, corporate America flattered its customers. Now, they dare you to be as virtuous as they are.
NBA-CHINA CONTROVERSY EXPOSED HOW DEPENDENT AMERICAN BASKETBALL IS ON BEIJING, FS1'S JASON WHITLOCK SAYS
But is that real? Are they actually virtuous? Or is all of this a cynical pose? We will let you decide.

Consider this: Last Friday, Daryl Morey, he is the general manager of the Houston Rockets basketball team sent what seemed like a noncontroversial tweet. He wrote this: "Fight for freedom. Stand with Hong Kong." That's it.

Now China, as you may have seen on television, is now trying to crush Hong Kong and it's not hard to pick a side. China, it is rarely noted (but it is true), is a racist ethnostate that bans dissent and murders its political opponents. You'd think every American would stand with Hong Kong without even thinking about it. But not the NBA.

The NBA is on China's side. So Morey was forced to delete his tweet. He may, in fact, lose his job over this. The NBA issued a statement making it clear that under no circumstance do they support Hong Kong or human freedom.

Instead of exporting American freedoms to China, our ruling class instead imported Chinese authoritarianism here.

On Tuesday, NBA Commissioner Adam Silver emerged to clarify. He repeated the refrain of every person who opposes free speech. Sure, you're free to say what you think, but you aren't safe from the consequences.

"The long-held values of the NBA are to support freedom of expression," Silver said. "Daryl Morey as the general manager of the Houston Rockets enjoys that right as one of our employees. What I also tried to suggest is I understand that there are consequences from that exercise, in essence, his freedom of speech, and, you know, we will have to live with those consequences."

Oh. So, it's that hard to say that we support freedom against the fascist government of China? Apparently, it is.

Steve Kerr is the coach of the Golden State Warriors. On the question of American politics, Kerr, you may have noticed, has no problem speaking his mind. He embraces the hard left social policy that suddenly is so fashionable among rich people.

He doesn't hesitate, for example, to demand stricter gun laws for the rest of us. In the words of one fawning media outlet -- and there are many -- Kerr speaks truth to power. All right.

So what truths was Steve Kerr ready to speak to China? Well, none, it turns out. Not a single truth to the government of China. Choosing between freedom and fascism turns out to be a really confusing choice. Who knows what the right answer is? As Kerr pointed out, it's really above his pay grade.

"It's a really bizarre international story and a lot of us don't know what to make of it," he said. "So this is something I'm reading about just like everybody is, but I am not going to comment further."

Yes, not going to comment further. It's a "bizarre international story." In other words, Steve Kerr is a phony. He is brave when the crowds applaud, but when money is at stake, he shuts up and obeys like the cowardly little corporate stooge that he is. It is hard to imagine how a man like that can look himself in the mirror at night. And yet he is not alone -- hardly.

There are countless Steve Kerrs in corporate America, all of them happy to sell out their country and lick the boots of their Chinese masters for pay. Activision Blizzard - that's a major video game company - just banned a top player from one of its games because he gave an interview supporting the demonstrations in Hong Kong.

Just last year, right outside of Washington, the hotel company Marriott fired one of its employees. Why? For "liking" a tweet that recognized Taiwan as a country. That's it. That tweet offended China. So Marriott did the bidding of the fascist and fired him. That actually happened.

This is common, by the way. In Hollywood, pandering to China is so common, so flagrant, that the show "South Park" produced an entire episode mocking it. "South Park" was banned in China after that episode. You've got to respect its creators for making the episode anyway and Comedy Central for airing it.

Most companies in America, we are sad to say, would never do that. Why? You know why? China has 1.4 billion people. Companies want access to that market. If it's a choice between supporting the United States, our country, and our people or getting rich from China, it is no-contest from any company.

For decades, neoliberals assured us that it was our duty to embrace free trade with China. As the rest of us sat passively by, they allowed China to steal our technologies and snatch up our properties in our cities, driving up rents, decreasing the rates of homeownership and destroying millions and millions, of course, of our manufacturing jobs.

Making a communist country vastly rich would be worth it, they assured us, because China inevitably -- these things are always inevitable -- would become much freer and more democratic as well. That was inexorable, because capitalism always leads to democracy. Remember that? They would nod as they said it.

They were lying. It turned out to be completely false. Instead of exporting American freedoms to China, our ruling class instead imported Chinese authoritarianism here.

Thirty years later, ordinary Americans are poor, wages haven't moved, and all of us are less free. But China and our neoliberal elite are a lot richer.

It turns out that fascism, whatever you think of it, is pretty good for business. That ought to worry you.

As the NBA has been in the news South Park decided to take on the Communist Party of China by discussing the problems with Chinese government investments into many American Industries and the largest companies. South Park has aired a new episode calling out china for their control over Hollywood movies and the censorship that occurs if US companies do not fall into line of the Chinese Communist Party. South Park creators brought up the fact that Winnie the Pooh was blocked from Chinese TV because across the Chinese internet people were saying Poo looks like president Xi. China bans free speech and democracy and South Park are hero's for showing the large problems with US companies entering foreign markets and they should be praised as US hero's. Companies need to stop selling out to china and join South Parks side on these issues.

The controversial South Park episode, "Band in China," was screened on a busy Hong Kong street in the Sham Shui Po District on Tuesday night.

The 299th episode of the long-running Comedy Central series gained notoriety when life imitated art and South Park was banned in China last week.

The sharp critique of the way Hollywood shapes its content to avoid offending Chinese government censors led to real life Chinese government censors deleting virtually every South Park clip, episode and online discussion of the show from Chinese streaming services, social media and even fan pages.

Photos shared to social media showed a projector screen set up on a busy urban street at night in Kowloon with a large group of people gathered around it. According to The Hollywood Reporter, it is unclear who was responsible for the screening.

"Tonight in Sham Shui Po, ⁦@SouthPark⁩ episode 'Band in China' shown on street to large & appreciative audience. Street cinema's been yet another important facet of #HK protests, w 'Winter on Fire' on Ukraine's revolution & '1987: When the Day Comes' on Korea's esp popular," tweeted journalist and author @KongTsungGan.

Winter on Fire: Ukraine's Fight for Freedom is the Academy Award-nominated 2015 documentary, produced in part by Netflix, about the peaceful student demonstration in 2013 that became a violent revolution and full-fledged civil rights movement.

1987: When the Day Comes is a political thriller currently on Amazon Prime based on real life events surrounding the nationwide democracy movement in South Korea that generated mass protests from June 10 to June 29, 1987.

The South Park screening in Hong Kong inspired favorable discussion online by the protest movement with many praising the show's creators Trey Parker and Matt Stone as "prophets."

"Project it on the police station," tweeted @RDawn1984.

"This town needs South Park. Hong Kong needs South Park. Hong Kong supports creative freedom! #chinazi #FreedomOfExpression," said another supporter.

"I am laughing with tears in my eyes," one anonymous user wrote on a protester forum in response to the episode.

Others also noted that the screening was helpful because it provided a chance for elders of the community to get a sense of how some powerful Western voices overseas are supporting Hong Kong's cause.

While the National Basketball Association (NBA) has been criticized for its response to China penalizing the league over comments about Hong Kong protesters, Parker and Stone have been celebrated for both the episode and the faux apology they issued on Monday.

"Like the NBA, we welcome the Chinese censors into our homes and into our hearts," reads the statement.

"We too love money more than freedom and democracy. Xi doesn't look like Winnie the Pooh at all. Tune into our 300th episode this Wednesday at 10! Long live the great Communist Party of China. May the autumn's sorghum harvest be bountiful. We good now China?"
