Men who look upon themselves born to reign, and others to obey, soon grow insolent; selected from the rest of mankind their minds are early poisoned by importance; and the world they act in differs so materially from the world at large, that they have but little opportunity of knowing its true interests, and when they succeed to the government are frequently the most ignorant and unfit of any throughout the dominions.

There’s a lot of specific ways to phrase this truth, but the one above is as good as any of them. Political Correctness is giving up you own opinion to please assholes or, at least, censoring what you say or do in order to propitiate them.
In the run-up to the 2022 Midterm Election, in which most Dems are faltering, Biden has decided to loudly jabber that, “Democrats are building a better America for everyone with an economy that grows from the bottom up.” 🙄 If Biden actually believes this – Hellfire! If we could even safely assume he knew what he was reading aloud – this would be a grimly perfect example of a goebbels-esque Big Lie (große Lüge).
Simply put, you can’t build up an economy from the bottom up unless you foster an entrepreneurial spirit among the lower half of the economic echelons. And that means lowering taxes on businesses, reducing restrictive regulations that hamper startups, and advantaging investments by venture capitalists in those startups. Exactly none of these things are those which don’t directly contradict Democrat dogma and political positions. All you can do, and all the Democrats are ever willing to do, is attack the successful makers in order to redistribute their wealth to those more likely to vote for Democrats.
It’s Halloween Week, so let’s all do our best to keep kicking the red-suited fat-boy back into the hole. 😉
Oh yeah! ‘Tis the time for sweet treats, drunken nights, and babes in sexy-spooky costumes, along with buntings of black and orange and all the creepy ornaments. The red and green stuff can and should wait to be seen.
That about sums it up. The Squad, in these matters led by Rashida Tlaib and Ilhan Omar, make threats and issue dire warning and screaming, ranting complaints whenever Israel takes any steps to prevent Hamas and the other Muslim jihadis from driving the Jews into the sea.
That looks about right. It seems like something that Selina aka Catwoman would do to let Bruce aka Batman know that he’s been patrolling Gotham for too long and needs to get home. 😉
