Reflections From a Murky Pond

Netflix, already reeling from the effects of their choosing to side with Biden in his war, has just updated their corporate culture memo for the first time in nearly five years. In the update the streamers warns the woke in their ranks to chill or leave.

The updated Netflix Culture memo includes a new anti-censorship section called “Artistic Expression,” that warns that the streamer will not “censor specific artists or voices” even if certain employees consider the content to be to“harmful” to one of more specially privileged classes.

If you’d find it hard to support our content breadth, Netflix may not be the best place for you.

As employees we support the principle that Netflix offers a diversity of stories, even if we find some titles counter to our own personal values. Depending on your role, you may need to work on titles you perceive to be harmful. If you’d find it hard to support our content breadth, Netflix may not be the best place for you.

It seems that Netflix’s leadership understand that “Get Woke, Go Broke” is real and they’ve decided that they’re not going to be the ones who are going to go broke by allowing their employees to “pre-cancel” speech that they hate.

Yes, America has a rat problem. Disney’s firing of Gina Carano for “insensitive comments” is just the latest, greatest, and most overt exercise in their pandering to the fringe/minority elements in America and their growing despite for seemingly anything that is normative within American culture.

And yes, at my age, having grown up on reruns of the original Mickey Mouse Club – that’d be the one hosted by Jimmie Dodd and featuring Annette Funicello and Cubby O’Brien – and The Wonderful World Of Disney, it’s particularly horrific to me that what was a bastion of American values and general wholesomeness has turned itself into an oikophobic, kink-ridden re-education medium aimed at America’s children.

As Americans have witnessed and all to often been subject to in recent years, the Democrats and their media outlets are more than both willing and capable of enforcing Gleichschaltung. And, as every sane person fully expected, it’s growing worse and more overt since the Dems overthrew the American government and installed the Biden-Harris regime.

And, it’s not something that could happen here; it is something that is happening here! For far too long, in willful blindness to the Democrats’ ever-increasing encroachment upon the fundamental rights and mores of our nation, good citizens have looked on and did nothing as the Democrats and those sorts who support them have chipped away at the foundations of America.

Honestly, when it comes to certain sorts and those who’ve “allied” with them. the only education they seem to have either received or accepted are hatred, fear, envy, sloth, and misplaced entitlement.

What’s worse is that neither I nor anyone that I personally know have any idea of how to salvage these sorts. Every cure is multi-generational and leaves the current and immediately upcoming ones needing to be solved for rather than cured / re-educated.

On Thursday, May 23, 2020, Rep. Louie Gohmert (R-TX) introduced a resolution on the floor of the House of Representatives that would ban the Democrats due to their past support of slavery and the Confederacy. The resolution is co-sponsored by GOP Reps. Andy Biggs (Ariz.), Jody Hice (Ga.), Randy Weber (Texas) and Andy Harris (Md.)

Resolved,

1. That the Speaker of the House of Representatives shall remove any item that names, symbolizes or mentions any political organization or party that has ever held a public position that supported slavery or the Confederacy, from any area within the House wing of the Capitol or any House office building, and shall donate any such item or symbol to the Library of Congress.

2. That any political organization or party that has ever held a public position that supported slavery or the Confederacy shall either change its name or be barred from participation in the House of Representatives.

Was this a pointless and useless exercise and a waste of everyone’s time? If it was actually meant in all seriousness, certainly! In a Dem-controlled House, no harm will come to any Dem unless he or she practices apostasy and breaks with thier cult of hate. On the other hand, if it was meant – as it was – to a slap in their faces and an application of the Dems’ own Cancel Culture to them, it was needed step to take.

Sometimes you just have to stand up and shove hard, unpleasant facts in their faces in order to point out to them just how wrong-headed and vile their being. because the only thing necessary for the triumph of Democrats is for good men to do nothing.
