A comment I made on this post at Moonbattery, which has nothing to do with the actual post but seemed relevant at the time…
Archived for posterity. I think I’ll start researching an essay on christianity and libertarianism. Are they compatible? Tough question.
Ian has nailed it, I think. A “true” libertarian is for small government and […]
compare and contrast. The comments in the second one are particularly enlightening of the mindset at LGF… no context, no urge to try and find out the full story. Just hate.
I thought we were fighting hate.
I left Robert Spencer a long note, not defending Dymphna as such - she’s a big girl, she can do […]
Updated: Welp, after a careful watch of the news for the last week or so it seems this thing is definitely an urban legend, as Baron Bodissey was kind enough to point out in the comments. C’est la vie.
My mother, bless her, works for Manchester City council. I shall not say which department she works […]
Via USS Neverdock, OUTCRY AS MUSLIM M&S WORKER REFUSES TO SELL ‘UNCLEAN’ BIBLE BOOK [Daily Express]
A MUSLIM store worker refused to serve a customer buying a children’s book on Christianity because she said it was “unclean”.
Shopper Sally Friday felt publicly humiliated at a branch of Marks & Spencer when she tried to pay for First […]
The media does it a lot. The BBC are giulty of it all the time and other outlets do it, too. Quoting out of context is a common technique for taking someone’s words and twisting them to fit your agenda.
Today we have a good example from one of the commenters at LGF, who takes Dymphna’s […]
Just a little amusing note. My wife, the beautiful Christina, has won the Numby Award for “Neologism of the Year” after coming up with this little number for Mr Brignell:
Acairasthenephobia, Ah-kai-ras-then-eh-phobia, n, a fear of falling ill out of hours (Gr negative prefix A; cairo (or kairós) - right time; asthenes - ill; and […]
I do not live in a free country.
I remember, in the wake of Dunblane, there was a vocal minority that said they would come for knives after they banned guns. They were laughed at. At that point several types of knives were already banned or severely restricted but that didn’t matter. It was “paranoia”. Now […]
My brother’s wife is a friend of the Mayor of Asunción (capital city of Paraguay). The mayor of Asunción spends rather a lot of time with the President of Paraguay, who has been known to occasionally have contact with Hugo Chavez of Venezuela.
I’M A FUCKING COMMUNIST!!!
Or at least I am if you apply the purity […]
Recent events at LGF and Gates of Vienna, amongst others, have left me at something of a loss. I’ve made several attempts to organise my thoughts on the matter in to a coherent narrative but, unlike some of my compatriots, it would appear that my ability to essay is rather lacking except in the spur […]
I came to the conclusion a long time ago that I’m a voyeur, a sideliner. The classic blogger of stereotype and satire, who cheers on from the sides and never gets involved in the big events. That’s just a reflection of my personality; I’m a fringe person. It’s hard for me to be the centre […]
