Reflections From a Murky Pond

Yep. I totally spaced that yesterday was Juneteenth, the day that Whites, specifically White Republicans, freed the Blacks from slavery. 😆 Yeah, well, I don’t keep track of uselessly manufactured holidays, especially ones that are lies propagated to pander to and appease the Blacks. I’m not much into clutching pearls over feel-good falsehoods.

In point of historical and legal fact, Juneteenth has its basis only in the forced end of slavery in the Confederacy. Delaware, a Union state, still had slaves until Dec 6th, when the 13th Amendment forced their emancipation, against the wishes of the state. Also, New Jersey, another Union state, still held Blacks in slavery until January 23rd of the next year, though the numbers at that point were less than 20. Furthermore, slavery was alive and well in the Indian Territories until the next year as well.

Juneteenth is a celebration of the completion of the eradication of the Confederacy, not the actual end of chattel slavery in America.

😆 In some ways, this is so very Arcimboldo. He’s somewhat famous for his reversible paintings [rotate your screen], though more so for his grotesque parodies. And, to add to the fun, some art historians claim that Arcimboldo was a Renaissance artist while other say he was one of the early Mannerists. Hence, Arcimboldo, himself is somewhat reversible. 😛

It’s so very ironic that Democrats call us Americans Nazis when they, themselves, follow the Nazi playbook so often and so well. The current example is Elizabeth Warren’s recurring attempt at the Ultra-Millionaire Tax Act, which includes an 40% “exit tax” on the net worth above $50 million for any U.S. citizen or long-term resident who renounces their citizenship and flees our country. That is quite literally straight out of the 1930s Nazi playbook. It’s a new iteration of their Reichsfluchtsteuer (Reich Flight Tax).

It’s the same law, just rebranded to fit the Democrats’ narrative. It’s even based upon exactly the same original premise – to stop people from fleeing extreme taxation. But somehow, some way, we’re the Nazis?

Then, that projective accusation is part of the Nazi playbook as well.

Accuse the other side of that which you are guilty

Cambridge, MA, isn’t near or much like Berchtesgaden, and her home isn’t much like the Berghof, but neither is a particularly good reason to summarily dismiss giving Operation Foxley another try. 😉

Yeah, know the time and what the calendar is based upon. The poor, ever-angry Atheists, especially the rabid Antitheists, have a hard time with this… which makes me laugh. Yeah, with a very few exceptions, the whole world uses a Christian-based calendar, and this is The Year of Their Lord 2025.

Of course, the Christian calendar is almost certainly wrong too. The creator of the Anno Domini dating system, Dionysius Exiguus, in all likelihood got it wrong. Yeshua ben Yahweh, aka Jesus Christ, had to have been born somewhere around 6 – 4 BC, since King Harod – a major character in the whole Nativity – died in 4 BC.

The Al·Gore ·Ithm doesn’t lie. This is a doomsday retrospective covering 20 years of Al Gore profiting from predicting the end of the world due to a multiplicity of climate disasters supposedly being brought about by the same economy that pays his way. 🙄
