Misogyny on 34th Street

Tabitha Korol sends this essay on the recent sharia-compliance of Macy’s department stores in the matter of female apparel.

Misogyny on 34th Street

by Tabitha Korol

I can still remember the many happy occasions I spent shopping at Macy’s on 34th, as a child, my pockets filled with hot chestnuts; later, as a new fashion designer fresh out of the Fashion Institute of Technology, either killing time between job interviews or checking out the new styles; and then as a newlywed, shopping for our first apartment. It is very difficult to fathom how this company, which produces the world-renowned Macy’s Parade; the magnificent Christmas windows, with incomparable set designs and moving figures that mesmerized crowds of eager spectators, would one day turn on its customers — when Macy’s owners, its board of directors and staff would consent to introduce a line of oppressive clothing to their female clientele. Known as the veil or hijab and forcibly imposed in tyrannical, misogynistic Islamic regimes, these alone were selected by Macy’s from the world’s many kinds of fashion.

Macy’s headquarters have fallen for the leftist line: that it is prudent to strive for multiculturalism in a country that has long been a thriving melting pot that elicited the envy of the world. America’s past success has clearly been due to the immigrants’ fervor to live and let live, whereas Islam, by stark contrast, is mandated by its Koran to dominate and subdue all other cultures by any means necessary. Multiculturalism is repulsive to Islam.

In addition to the denigration of Western religions, the rewriting of our history, the destruction of our statuary, and the attack on gender identity, the public is now being conditioned to accept the appearance of these oppressed, shrouded forms on city streets.

Introducing Islamic styles to the American public is yet another way of attacking America’s culture and femininity, as the full niqab, burqa and abaya are a means of dehumanizing women, enforcing the devalued female to cede control to the male in the Islamic shame-honor society, and denying her any societal interactions. The garment serves as an isolation chamber, causing sensory deprivation problems and disrupting bonding with her infant, even if she removes the shroud at home. There is also a high physical price to pay, for the wearer is deprived of the absorption of Vitamin D in northern climes, thereby causing pelvic fractures during childbirth, and triggering iron deficiencies and hypocalcaemic seizures in the child.

The cost of naïvely introducing these sheaths into American society will eventually destroy the thriving fashion industry as we know it, eliminate the entertainment industry, and affect all other related businesses, in creativity and in employment, until our country is transformed into another backward Islamic country. Conquest is achieved not only through war, but also through stealth, slowly, through government, business, schools, and now the shopping sector. But there will be blood on the hands of those who acquiesce — their own and the blood of their loved ones.

Hate Preachers in German Mosques, Part 1

A couple of days ago a “radical” mosque in Berlin was raided by the police. The following news report gives a brief account of that raid.

Many thanks to MissPiggy for translating these videos, and to Vlad Tepes for the subtitling:

I don’t think it’s any coincidence that the As-Sahaba Mosque was raided just after a ZDF investigative report aired on television. ZDF sent undercover reporters into various mosques to listen to what was preached in them, and record the speakers. The video below is the first half of that report.

The makers of the documentary repeatedly point out that these hate preachers and their mosques are monitored by the security authorities, but no action is taken against them unless a deadly terrorist attack occurs.

It’s NOT The Economy, Stupid*

According to Dr. Turley, widespread unrest in Europe is about cultural security, as pushback against globalism continues:

Vlaams Belang, the long-persecuted Flemish party, deserves credit for its years-long, uphill battle against those in Belgium who have called them the usual names, erected a cordon sanitaire around their members in Parliament, and have generally excoriated their existence.

Gates of Vienna has been a fan of the Flemish for many years, but we never thought they’d win. And now they have scored a major victory with the resignation of Prime Minister Charles Michel.

As Dr Turley points out about the American electorate, Hillary attracted those who thought the economy was primary, while Donald Trump won the culture crowd. [And as you can see from the shenanigans in Washington, the Old Guard is digging in on this.]

That Migration Pact is not going to last, but it won’t go quietly. Just look at what is being said by Europe’s leaders. This is from late November, where nationalism is equated with treason:

Merkel: “Nation states must today be prepared to give up their sovereignty”

No this wasn’t something Adolf Hitler said many years ago, this is what German Chancellor Angela Merkel told attendants at an event by the Konrad Adenauer Foundation in Berlin on Wednesday.

“In an orderly fashion of course,” Merkel went on to say. She even went so far as to condemn those in her own Christian Democratic Union (CDU) party who think Germany should withdraw from the controversial UN migration pact:

“There were [politicians]who believed that they could decide when these agreements are no longer valid because they are representing The People”.

“[But] the people are individuals who are living in a country, they are not a group who define themselves as the [German] people,” she stressed.

She has previously accused critics of the UN Global Compact for Safe and Orderly Migration of not being patriotic because, “That is not patriotism, because patriotism is when you include others in German interests and accept win-win situations”.

Her words echo recent comments by the beleaguered French President Emmanuel Macron who stated in a Remembrance Day speech that “patriotism is the exact opposite of nationalism [because]nationalism is treason,” which successfully reduced his approval rating, yet again.

Macron, who has much of his country in highly visible protests at the moment, told the Bundestag that “the Franco-German couple [has]the obligation not to let the world slip into chaos and to guide it on the road to peace”.

“Europe must be stronger… and win more sovereignty,” he went on to demand, just as Merkel has, that EU member states surrender national sovereignty to Brussels over “foreign affairs, migration, and development” as well as giving “an increasing part of our budgets and even fiscal resources”.

*[That title comes from the 1990s, during Clinton’s first campaign. Here’s the wiki on this phrase.]

Angelo Ciocca Gets Rebuked by the President of the European Parliament

Last week we posted a video of an Italian MEP for the Lega Nord named Angelo Ciocca. In the wake of the Islamic terror attack in Strasbourg (in which an Italian reporter was shot, and later died), Mr. Ciocca stood up on the floor of the European Parliament, held up a yellow vest, and called on his fellow MEPs to “Wake up! Wake up!”

The video below shows what happened immediately after Mr. Ciocca’s speech. The man rebuking him for his bad manners is his compatriot, Antonio Tajani, who serves as the president of the European Parliament.

The Star Trek Connection

Our Israeli correspondent MC sends this meditation on Star Trek, mass immigration, utopias, and related topics.

The Star Trek Connection

by MC

“Religion is the opiate of the people” said a famous Communist, and then proceeded to create a new political religion.

Religions are always messy. They are messy because the elites get hold of them and pervert them into their own personal fiefdoms, and those fiefdoms are then twisted to become ambitions of their leaders. The relevant ‘god’ is pushed into a backroom and only occasionally dusted off and allowed to come to the party, but only at the convenience of said elite.

Then there are the wacky video religions, of which the Cult of the Trekkie is one of the bigger ones.

But has anybody else noticed that there is an agenda here? Is our home world to become that of the fantasy TV series, portrayed as a utopian community where there is no money, no borders, and everybody has everything they could ever want, subject to the replicator functioning correctly?

I don’t know which came first, the warp drive or the patronising influence of the Vulcans (the intellectual elite), but both appear as pivotal in a ‘godless’ community (do Klingons see it as Federation ‘rootbeer’ supremacy?). And above all, are Kirk and his band of politically correct brothers (at the time) guiding us wisely through the mayhem of the present to a bright and glorious future, complete with the ‘moderate Klingon’ who sets an example of tolerance for us all?

Of course. the reality is that there are no warp drives and no Vulcans (and no ‘moderate’ Klingons) except as a bunch of pixels and neurons in the minds of our wonderous elites and their flocks, and there will be no magic wands that can be waved to clear up the mess that such trekkie socialism will once more create in our own backyards.

The dominance of the elitist obsession with the otherwise abstract ideas of ‘racism’ and ‘equality’ produce a wonderful inversion where non-trekkies — those race groups which are not part of the Federation — are always portrayed as imperfect, even if perhaps redeemable, but always as inferior and backwards. To be nationalist is to automatically be fascist, and also to be irreconcilably stupid.

The Federation culture is so superior that no other idea can be tolerated, and all must be encouraged (forced) to come into the fold.

So we have a politics of provocation where, as in a game of tennis, you are looking to make your opponent make mistakes. In the corrosive politics of the now, it is something which enables you to point the finger and shout “Nazi” or some such other inappropriate but demeaning slander, even if that insult itself is so misused as to be virtually meaningless.

We are watching this happen right now. Hamas, a known terrorist organisation and oppressor of ‘Palestinians’ is once more playing the blame game, and once more the gullible (and the malicious elite) appear to be falling for it. Thus Hamas is a terrorist organisation only when they are hitting non-Israeli targets, but when they are lashing out at Jooz, they suddenly become freedom fighters. This is the real ‘racism’. And this, from a supposedly multicultural country where the ardent multiculturalists of the UK Labour party just cannot keep their virulent anti-Semitism (the real racism here) under wraps. And as for the UN, well, what else can we expect but to have to pay continuously and heavily for the privilege of having our posteriors battered by the ‘Bandung generation’.

Soros Robots Come to Budapest to Manufacture Fake News


Thugs trying to break into the state TV building, repelled by tear gas

As reported here a few days ago, a rent-a-riot funded by George Soros recently came to Budapest to stir up trouble, throw things, and light stuff on fire. The intention was to provoke a reaction from the Hungarian police so that the international media could bray in unison about the “neo-fascist regime” of Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán.

It didn’t work out quite the way the globalist progressives planned. The Hungarian authorities showed restraint, the interlopers looked like thugs, and the majority of Hungarians continue to support the Orbán government.

But that didn’t stop the Soros forces from trying more tricks. Below are two videos, two reports, and a series of photos from our Hungarian correspondents.

The two videos are excerpts from a TV talk show hosted by Zsolt Bayer, a well-known popular TV commentator and long-time associate of Prime Minister Viktor Orbán.

The opposition fake circus spreads like wildfire in the liberal world press

The networks are working too well, and the left-liberal press not only in Hungary, but worldwide, is worriedly watching the siege of the headquarters of official television channels. No, not because they are not medicated enough, but they are “burying democracy”, envision dictatorships, and 15,000 demonstrators. Of course this segment of the foreign press was eagerly waiting for something to happen to allow the “autocratic Orbán government” to be attacked, and this all-encompassing circus maximus was enough for them.

There is no doubt that The New York Times, Reuters, The Guardian, Euronews, and others waited expectantly to catch something where they could use their claws and not let go if it was Hungary. It is no surprise, therefore, that they were immediately singing worldwide about what a dictatorship there is in our country. For this they are assisting perfectly by opposition politicians in the Hungarian TV headquarters with their fake falls and welters. For example, when Ildikó Bangóné Borbély said into the camera of Anett Bosz Anett, that “it would be f***ing awesome if we were to lie down with our hands on our heads”

Of all that, the MSM see only this:

And now let’s see who, and in what form, are “worrying” about Hungarian democracy:

  • This Reuters report emphasized that Bernadett Szél and Ákos Hadházy were thrown out of the TV headquarters with “violence”.
  • The American New York Times site contains the video where Ákos Hadházy welters.
  • The British Guardian highlighted that Viktor Orbán faces “rare” and “persistent” protests after the parliament accepted the “slave law” — as it is named by the opposition. The British publication also mentions that Ákos Hadházy was violently thrown out of the building.
  • The Euronews site puts on its cover the “leading out” of Szél and Hadházy, which can also be seen in the videos.
  • The French Le Figaro and Le Monde emphasize that “dissatisfaction is increasing” since the government accepted the “loi esclavagiste” a.k.a. the “slave law”.
  • The German Deutsche Welle cover page is something. They seems to think 15,000 participated in the protests in Hungary, which were not only against the overtime law, but by the opposition against the “autocratic governance” of Viktor Orbán.

Our Hungarian correspondent László sends this report:

For the first time in recent history, the thuggish globalist Soros army has launched an operation from inside the country. So far they seem to have failed — but obviously the war has only just begun. The operation started with violent obstruction by leftist-globalist opposition MPs in the parliament.


Leftist MPs trying to obstruct the work of the Hungarian Parliament by blocking the stairs to the president’s chair

It continued with riots by Soros-thugs trying to set the country’s Christmas tree on fire in front of the Parliament. I attach some photos of the antifa-like riots.

Some days ago these opposition MPs broke into the premises of the state media and started to run amok, trying to violently break into studios in order to disrupt the live broadcast, and chased the media workers in the corridors. Let me recommend this article — it sums up the events so far. In the embedded videos in the above 888.hu article you can see the opposition leaders playing the victim, pretending to be terrorized by the state, but the camera was left rolling. Here the Soros clowns plan the action, but fail to stop the camera:

A Canticle for the Benighted

A no-deal Brexit? More Brexit negotiations? A second referendum?

While all the Brexit uproar continues, Seneca III sends this somewhat different food for thought.

A Canticle for the Benighted

by Seneca III

This short monograph is an elaborated version of a hurried comment re. the ongoing Brexit debacle that I posted on ‘Breitbart London’ yesterday, so it may not be totally new to some of you.

I offer it here because the original version dealt only with the British State’s carefully thought out long-term plan for the draconian subjugation of its citizens and then their ethnic sacrifice on the altar of what is variously known as the New World Order, Globalisation or the ‘Multicultural Human Rights Project’ (which has little to do with rights and even less with humanity), particularly in the light of the accession to and signing of the UN’s Global Compact for Migration by so many once-independent nations, including my own.

Yet across Europe and the UK, predominantly amongst the common man, within the working and middle classes, there has been a sea change in perceptions, a steep rise in awareness of the fate that is being planned for them in the halls of privileged power, a change that has manifested itself in the form the yellow vest movement and similar groups across the continent taking to the streets in often violent protest.

Thus, there is about us a time of uncertainty, turmoil, civil unrest and perhaps even insurrection. The response of individual states within and without the collective EU entity will vary depending upon their involvement in the globalisation project. The extent of their commitment thereto, both material and ideological, will determine the extents to which they will go to preserve it and their once-comfortable sinecures within it.

In view of the quiet existence of the UK ‘Civil contingencies Act 2004’ exposed below, I have little doubt that somewhere buried deep in the legislative bowels of other European nations and EU Command Headquarters there are similar instruments of suppression with their attendant mechanisms designed to ensure the ascension of the self-designated ruling elite to the high thrones of supreme power. The 2013 SF film Elysium springs to mind, despite the fact that the orbit wherein the elites resided projects much further into the future than the reality that is now, and is far beyond our current technological abilities — the first Elysium, if they manage to build it, will be here on Mother Earth, perhaps in Brussels or Strasbourg, the wombs wherein this grotesque child has been gestating for the last fifty years. And, once before, further East:

And how we burned in the camps later, thinking: What would things have been like if every Security operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain whether he would return alive and had to say good-bye to his family? Or if, during periods of mass arrests, as for example in Leningrad, when they arrested a quarter of the entire city, people had not simply sat there in their lairs, paling with terror at every bang of the downstairs door and at every step on the staircase, but had understood they had nothing left to lose and had boldly set up in the downstairs hall an ambush of half a dozen people with axes, hammers, pokers, or whatever else was at hand?… The Organs would very quickly have suffered a shortage of officers and transport and, notwithstanding all of Stalin’s thirst, the cursed machine would have ground to a halt! If…if…We didn’t love freedom enough. And even more — we had no awareness of the real situation…. We purely and simply deserved everything that happened afterward.

― Aleksandr I. Solzhenitsyn (1918-1956), The Gulag Archipelago

Now go read Blair’s ‘Civil contingencies Act 2004’… and read it with eyes wide open, understanding that the first few sections present as if this Act is preparing for what seem to be predominantly natural disasters or external threats, and hence establishes a legal basis for future reactions thereto. When you get deeper in you may begin to appreciate that this document is far more than that — it is a draconian personal survival plan for the elites should we ever decide to rise up against them. They, the New World Order-Globalist apparatchiks in Westminster and amongst their enforcement arms in the Executive branches, will use it to the full rather than allow us to set ourselves free.

Enrichment, Rape, and Official Neglect in Sweden

Q:   When do you think that the Swedes will have had enough?
A:   I really feel that people have had enough. The problem is that people won’t say it loud enough.
 

The following video was produced by the Swedish dissident news service Nya Tider (New Times). Long-time readers will remember Ted Ekeroth (who conducted the telephone interviews in this report) from several past Counterjihad conferences in Europe.

The report concerns a woman who was sexually assaulted by a culture-enricher next to an asylum center in the Swedish village of Deje. If she had not fought back and escaped from her attacker’s grasp, she almost certainly would have been raped.

The travesty of this story is not so much the attack itself, but the official response to it. The police were pointedly indifferent to her plight, and never conducted any meaningful investigation. The media suppressed her description of the assailant as an Afghan. And the administrator of her local Facebook group deleted her post containing a description of the attacker and photos of her injuries.
