Michigan Democrats Nominate Alleged Gay Pedophile for Congress

Posted on | August 14, 2020 | 1 Comment

That headline might be misleading. Jon Hoadley’s homosexuality is not “alleged.” He is definitely gay. It’s the pedophile part of the phrase that is unproven and, I mean, nobody knows if Jon Hoadley lusts for boy flesh. Not for certain, anyway. But I’m sure many Michigan Democrats would trust him to have a sleepover with their boys, because they’re tolerant and progressive like that:

A Michigan lawmaker and rising star in the Democratic Party who is running for Congress in one of the nation’s most contested seats discussed drug use and sex in a now-deleted blog where he also published derogatory comments about women and creepy remarks about children in underwear.

It was just college humor, Democrats say in defense of Hoadley’s blog, in which he referred to women as “breeders” and made comments about 4-year-olds wearing thongs. Not evidence of pedophilia, just “college humor,” and only a right-wing extremist would harbor any suspicions about this “rising star” of the Democratic Party.

Hoadley’s rival in the Democratic primary, Jen Richardson, had some jabs in her concession statement after losing by 3,000 votes:

In her concession statement, she said she would not be issuing an endorsement for Hoadley at this time, saying, “I am also very concerned by the alleged behaviors of Rep. Hoadley exposed yesterday and do not find acceptable the casual dismissal of misogyny, use of meth, and potential pedophilia as “bad poetry.” We must hold our elected officials accountable for their actions and to the highest standards of integrity.”

Nice phrase, “potential pedophilia.” But of course, we don’t actiually know anything about Jon Hoadley’s sexual preferences, except that he is gay — hugely, definitely, proudly and unequivocally gay. Is he also into meth and little boys? We don’t know. “Potentially.”

The Ivy League Is Decadent and Depraved

Posted on | August 13, 2020 | 1 Comment

“Diversity” is just elite code-speak for quotas:

A two-year long Justice Department investigation has found that Yale University illegally discriminated against Asian American and white applicants in violation of federal civil rights law.
In a letter to the college’s attorneys Thursday, the department said that Yale “rejects scores of Asian American and white applicants each year based on their race, whom it otherwise would admit.”
“Yale’s race discrimination imposes undue and unlawful penalties on racially-disfavored applicants, including in particular Asian American and White applicants,” Assistant Attorney General Eric Dreiband, the head of the department’s civil rights division, wrote.
The investigation found that Asian American and white students have “only one-tenth to one-fourth of the likelihood of admission as African American applicants with comparable academic credentials,” the Justice Department said.
Yale uses race as a factor in multiple steps of its admissions process and also “racially balances its classes,” the department said.

(Hat-tip: Ed Driscoll at Instapundit.)

While I haven’t examined the actual data from Yale, when Asian students sued Harvard for discrimination, the material obtained in discovery showed that year after year, black students were 14% of Harvard’s freshman class. Never 11% or 17%, but always exactly 14%. The fact that this number never changed from year to year tells you that Harvard had established a target number — a racial quota, by any other name — and was ignoring every other possible factor in order to meet that target. And what made this so heinous was that (a) Harvard repeatedly denied that any such quota existed and (b) officials did everything in their power to conceal the admissions data which proved they were lying.

The word for this is corruption. It is manifestly dishonest for schools like Harvard and Yale to pretend that admission is based on merit while secretly imposing discriminatory racial quotas. The Ivy League was actually better when it was just a place for the wealthy New England elite to send their children, without any pretension to being an academic meritocracy, falsely claiming to be equally open to all, while in fact secretively engaging in discrimination. But just look at how smugly Yale rationalizes its quota system:

In 2018, in response to the announcement of the investigation, Yale’s president Peter Salovey denied that its admissions process was discriminatory, saying, “Yale College could fill its entire entering class several times over with applicants who reach the 99th percentile in standardized testing and who have perfect high school grade point averages, but we do not base admission on such numbers alone. Rather, we look at the whole person when selecting whom to admit among the many thousands of highly qualified applicants.”

Oh, they “look at the whole person,” by which they mean . . . quotas.

So if you’re 99th percentile and a white boy from West Virginia, Yale is going to “look at the whole person” and say, “Go away, cracker.”

By God, I would never want any of my children to apply to Yale, because I wouldn’t want my kids to be invovled in such a corrupt racket.

Fuck Yale. Fuck Harvard. Fuck the entire “elite” education establishment.

Feminist Marina Watanabe Rejected a Guy and Turned Him Into a Nazi

Posted on | August 13, 2020 | 2 Comments

Last month, a group of Internet sleuths identified Andrew Richard Casarez, 27, of Orangevale, California, as the man behind the online alias “Vic Mackey.” According to the Sacramento Bee, Casarez was the leader of a white supremacist group that called itself “The Bowl Patrol,” a name referencing the “bowl” haircut of a notorious killer:

“The ‘Bowl Patrol’ is an online group that endorses violence against minorities, they take their name from known domestic terrorist (Dylann) Roof who is known for killing 9 people at a prayer meeting in South Carolina,” according to a sheriff’s declaration filed in Sacramento Superior Court. “Roof is known in the white supremacists movement for having a ‘bowl cut haircut.’”

Well, it turns out that Casarez went to high school with Marina Watanabe (@marinashutup), a feminist who used to write for Everyday Feminism and who is now social media editor of Bitch Media. In a YouTube video, she says that Casarez tried to hit on her and she rejected him:

Of course, getting turned down by a girl can be hard on a young guy’s ego, but when a guy becomes so desperate he starts hitting on feminists? Probably gonna turn into a mass murderer someday.

New York: ‘I Don’t Want to Leave, But I Don’t Feel Like I Have a Choice Now’

Posted on | August 13, 2020 | 3 Comments

That’s a quote from a resident of the Upper West Side of Manhattan, explaining why she’s selling out and leaving New York City:

“How do I let my children cross the street when homeless people are shooting up?
“As a parent, this isn’t the place I once knew. I feel like NYC is disappearing so fast and no one’s doing anything. . . . I don’t want to feel afraid, and I don’t want my children to be scared to go outside.”

Thousands of families are now fleeing New York City, but the question must be asked: Who elected Bill De Blasio as mayor?

Probably a lot of those Upper West Side moms voted for De Blasio, because it was the trendy “progressive” thing to do at the time. Didn’t it occur to any of them to wonder what the consequences might be?

Via Ace, who comments: “They’ve literally killed the cities. This is going to be the most transformative shift in 100 years.”

What is so sad about what’s happened to New York is that everybody knew it would happen. This was all predictable, if you remember what happened to New York back in the 1970s and ’80s. The long slide into squalor reached rock bottom during the term of Mayor David Dinkins. The backlash against the Dinkins disaster resulted in Rudy Giuliani’s election, and Giuliani enacted a get-tough approach to policing that cleaned up the city, producing an urban renaissance that lasted 20 years. Mayors and police departments in other cities emulated the Giuliani model, and everywhere such policies were pursued, success followed.

But it’s RAAAAACIST to have safe streets, and the voters listened to promises of “progressive” Democrats like De Blasio, and so they have no one to blame but themselves for the ruin of their cities.

‘She Ain’t Us’: How the #ADOS Attack Undermines ‘Phony’ Kamala

Posted on | August 12, 2020 | 1 Comment

Right out of the box, the Trump campaign was ready with a 30-second ad attacking Joe Biden’s VP choice Kamala Harris as “phony,” which shows that someone at Trump HQ has been paying attention to the nuances of African American culture. Because one of the things that caused Harris to lose support in the Democratic primaries was the realization by black voters that, as several have said, “She ain’t us.”

ADOS (American Descendants of Slavery) is a category described by black podcasters Yvette Carnell and Antonio Moore. It refers to the distinction between someone like Barack Obama (whose mother was white and whose father was Kenyan) and someone whose ancestors were enslaved in America. While this distinction may not seem important to most white people, it means a lot to black Americans who have noticed the way in which elite institutions (e.g., Ivy League universities) engage in what might be called substitute tokenism to meet the necessary “diversity” quotas. From the perspective of “diversity” managers, one brown face is the same as the other, but from the perspective of struggling African-Americans, the white system is not doing them any favors by giving scholarships to the children of immigrants merely for the sake of having more brown faces on campus.

The ancestors are not calling on me to protect a Black woman who never saw fit to prioritize or protect the lives of ordinary Black women.

Y’all Boule Negresses gone learn.#ADOS #LineageMatters https://t.co/Dc3BsWihcf

Now that Kamala Harris is officially Joe Biden’s choice for VP, Harris needs to come clean about why her own (Black) daddy despises her.

Time to come clean about this rift, especially since she’s anchored herself in Blackness pic.twitter.com/lSN3cPRInq

— BreakingBrown (Yvette Carnell)?? (@BreakingBrown) August 11, 2020

As I say, white people don’t generally understand why the ADOS distinction matters, but it expresses a sense among many black people that “diversity” is fraud being perpetrated at the expense of their community — and I don’t disagree with that analysis. Even though I dislike the whole zero-sum-game mentality of identity politics, where everything must be carved up and allotted by quotas of “representation,” if such a racial spoils system is to exist, at least it ought to be internally consistent, and counting the child of foreign immigrants as “African American” for the sake of a racial quota is a swindle.

Kamala Harris’s father is from Jamaica and her mother is from India. How many African Americans have a mother named Shyamala Gopalan? Harris was born while her parents were attending UC-Berkeley; they divorced when she was 7 and she was raised in Quebec, returning to the U.S. for college. So while it is perfectly acceptable to celebrate Harris as an immigrant success story, her status as a “woman of color” does not signify any actual benefit to the African-American community.

Go check out the #ADOS hashtag on Twitter and you’ll discover an extensive discourse on this topic. It’s not coming from Republicans or conservatives, but from black people who feel they are being defrauded by the game of substitute tokenism that Harris represents. So when the Trump campaign runs an ad calling Harris a “phony,” that message is going to resonate with a crucial demographic segment.
