Well that's huge. I'm betting money Republicans rush a candidate through before January even though it makes them massive hypocrites when you consider how they treated this situation during 2016.

The sad part is that they can't just rewind the clock and unpoliticize the courts because then the left will just do what they did before.

Not at all. The Senate calls the shots. GOP has controlled the Senate both times. The rules are written in plain English. Political opponents aren't just supposed to roll over and die just because Dem strategy leaders are incompetent establishment-crony morons. Screaming "massive hypocrites" when you know damn well Dems would make the same move if the roles were reversed.

It's a religion with different sects, some radically fundementaliat and supremacist, it's also an ethno-nationalist idenity when need be and a tradition/culture, albeit, anti-Christ.

Hollywood has always been controlled by Jews/Zionists. They've also had a firm grip on academia since The Venitians at least. Check out Webster Tarpley on that history, though you can ignore his modern day analysis.

Ask yourself this: What country that has undergone serious and profound change that was not for the better and had their citizens volunteer for that to happen? Answer: None. From the fall of the Berlin Wall and Russia to any other situation around the world - those citizens did not want collapse - but it was forced upon them by their "leaders".

The current global crisis is completely manufactured and engineered to favour the ruling class only and to grant them more wealth and power in reward for fucking shit up well beyond mere stupidity. They make the chaos and the masses give them more power to fix their chaos and oppress us all more with their "solutions".

[–]Jesus 2 insightful - 2 fun2 insightful - 1 fun3 insightful - 2 fun -  (2 children)

Not always. The Catholics for a time controlled Hollywood and censored all kinds of degeneracy but in the end they lost to the Jews. Hollywood is majority owned by Jews; mostly atheistical but so to religious and Zionist.

[–]JasonCarswell 2 insightful - 2 fun2 insightful - 1 fun3 insightful - 2 fun -  (1 child)

While I'll admit that there were certainly battles for control, I wouldn't say there was ever a switch so much as a compromise for a few decades.

From the beginning Jews ran major studios in Hollywood from Laemmle to Zukor to the Warners in Warner Brothers to the Loew, Goldwyn, and Mayer in Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer.

They collapse it just enough to buy up assets by the pennies and make the lives of the common citizens miserable and then provide them with their pre-planned solution.

It really started as a result of WWII and trying not to look like anything resembling a Nazi by instituting Jewish quotas in the Ivy league. It increased further as a result of the 1960's cultural upheaval. This article goes into exhaustive detail about Jewish overreach in academia https://www.unz.com/runz/the-myth-of-american-meritocracy/

"The Jewish levels for Yale and Columbia were also around 25 percent, while white Gentiles were 22 percent at the former and just 15 percent at the latter. The remainder of the Ivy League followed this same general pattern.This overrepresentation of Jews is really quite extraordinary, since the group currently constitutes just 2.1 percent of the general population and about 1.8 percent of college-age Americans."

Part of this has to do with Jewish intelligence, which is significantly greater on average than that of Europeans. But Jewish power in both finance and politics dictates what does and doesn't get taught at universities. One of the most obvious effects of this is the wildly disproportionate number of leftist and left leaning professors compared to rightist or right leaning ones 12 to 1 https://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2016/oct/6/liberal-professors-outnumber-conservatives-12-1/

What's the end game? Hopefully free speech serves its purpose in waking people up in the face of the left's racism and egalitarianism. If that doesn't work, then balkanization is probably all that's left

So you're saying that Jewish people did not start taking over media and academia until 1939-1945? Am I getting this right?

Hopefully free speech serves its purpose in waking people up in the face of the left's racism and egalitarianism.

Racism... against non-jewish people? Because Jewish people are overrepresented in academia? Is this correct?

Universities are leftist in the US because the American left is more liberal and universities are more liberal. Universities are more liberal because the act of inquiry, research, and learning requires openness to new experiences, which is characterized by liberalism.

Both of you are correct - it's neither all one nor the other.

There is liberal exploration AND there is communist-totalitarianism WITH much grey between.

Yes in theory. Much like the original meaning of liberal was libertarian but now isn't. Anyone who is a liberal today is not advancing freedom they are advancing tyranny. I'm quite aware that many liberals don't think that but that's a fault of education and learning on their part.

[–]JasonCarswell 1 insightful - 2 fun1 insightful - 1 fun2 insightful - 2 fun -  (2 children)

Depends what their precise end game actually is. Sure more power, etc - is general. Cutting up the nation with civil war? Possibly - and it seems like they're aiming for that. However, Balkanization is certainly not all that's left. The totalitarian MIAC-corpra-technocracy will stop at nothing. They have countless ways to dispose of fringe elements - if it comes to that. How much do they want? All of it. How much do they actually need? Enough for complete control for the forseeable future.

Eisenhower's "Military Industrial Complex" was originally going to be the "Military Industrial Academic Complex" but they not only thought it was too long a phrase, but they also didn't want to show their entire hand. I forget where I learned that, about half a year ago.

"You would do it too" is a race to the bottom.

It's closer to Machiavellian than anything. It's simply political realism.

Or we just don't like hypocrisy.

I would argue it's not hypocrisy and simply McConnell was lying back when he used the election as an excuse. Not that it's much better but anyone with two brain cells to rub together knew the real reason no judge was nominated.

Ah, ok, so he's not holding this administration to different principles than the last one, he's just a completely immoral, lying piece of shit. You can't have double standards if you don't have any standards. No, you're wrong, this is a lot worse. You think things are always this bad, but they weren't. Keep this up and you'll really learn what it's like to live in a corrupt shit hole.

Chad meme: YES

Again, I'm not saying it's not wrong but it was very clear McConnell was just lying last time and was not hearing the appointee out of political power move. That's why I don't really view it as "hypocritical", rather than he was just flat up lying before.

If you believed McConnell at his word about "giving the people a voice in choosing the supreme court appointee" than you're just a child. I don't know what else to say.

I believe in trying to hold politicians accountable for their word, and voting them out via democratic process if they underperform. You've downgraded him from a hypocrite to a lying piece of shit. I daresay he's unsalvageable at this point.

Meh, makes them more like liars. Everyone knew the real reason they blocked the appointee and the opposite side would've done the exact same. I get it's faux pas to be a realist but the actual motives were obvious to anyone with two brain cells to rub together.

[–]jjdub7 2 insightful - 2 fun2 insightful - 1 fun3 insightful - 2 fun -  (3 children)

They don't need any reason to block. You need both the White House and Senate to appoint and confirm. The laws are written in plain English.

Yeah, which made the whole lying thing super stupid. I get that they couldn't blatantly come off as "Nah, we own the Senate so who cares" but that's what it was. If they didn't lie about it back then it wouldn't look so bad right now.

Yeah, I think Obama's second term kinda sent the right-wing off into a weird mood and kinda went off their rocker.

But then when Trump was elected the left-wing fucking melted down. The left went from the party of ScienceTM to believing in Alex Jones-level of conspiracy theories about Russia.
