Antifa Begins Compiling Lists of Businesses to Add to Yelp’s ‘Racism’ Blacklist

After Yelp announced plans to place alerts on businesses accused of “racist behavior,” an Antifa group responsible for organizing the violent Portland riots is now compiling a blacklist of pro-police and anti-Black Lives Matter companies.

@safePDX, an abolitionist collective “keeping protesters safe from state violence,” declared Thursday that the organization is moving to compile a list of “non-friendly” businesses in Portland that is “hanging blue lives garbage in their store or anything else that’s anti the BLM movement.” Then the private account solicited more than 6,000 followers to “[d]rop them below” in the replies.

BLM Supporter Tied to Michigan Gov. Whitmer Kidnapping Plot. Demands Grow for Her to Apologize to Trump

Yet another one of the conspirators indicted in the plot to kidnap Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer has turned out to be an anarchist and this time is an identified Black Lives Matter, Inc.(tm) supporter.

If you’re keeping book, that now means at least three of the six men indicted by the federal government for the frightening conspiracy to kidnap the governor from her vacation home are avowed anti-Donald Trump anarchists and at least one is a BLM protester. When half the conspirators rolled up by the feds are anarchists, this is what you might call a pattern.

The BLM connection comes from no less than The Washington Post, which buried the lede of its own story by headlining its piece, “Accused leader of plot to kidnap Michigan governor was struggling financially, living in basement storage space,” as if living in a basement was the most surprising thing about the conspirator. Indeed, we can be assured that if one of the conspirators had attended a Trump rally that would have headlined the story.

‘Demonic Desecration’: Archbishop Orders to Burn Altar After Priest Allegedly Held Orgy With Dominatrices There

The sex act between a Catholic priest and two “dominatrices,” which allegedly happened on an altar of a Louisiana church, was nothing short of demonic desecration, the archbishop has ruled.

Archbishop Gregory Aymond of New Orleans ordered the removal and burning of the altar of the Saints Peter and Paul Roman Catholic Church in Pearl River, Louisiana. The move was in response to a sex scandal involving the now-former priest of the church, who was arrested on charges of obscenity last week. Travis Clark was allegedly caught filming himself having sex with two women, described as “dominatrices” by the media, on the altar of the church entrusted to his ministry.

Department of Ed Threatens Pitt’s Funding for Demoting Professor Who Said Affirmative Action Harms Students

The University of Pittsburgh is under federal investigation for allegedly retaliating against a professor for his views and practicing “overtly race-based admission and hiring.”

The Department of Education informed Pitt Chancellor Patrick Gallagher in a letter Thursday that Norman Wang may have been “disparately treated” on account of his Asian background as well.

Pitt’s affiliated hospital fired Wang from his position as director of a fellowship program this summer, in response to a white paper he published in the Journal of the American Heart Association.

Wang (above) concluded that it would be best to implement race-neutral hiring methods within his field of cardiology. He argued that affirmative action has led to “relatively weak academic starting positions in classes” among black and Hispanic beneficiaries.

IRS Accused of Buying Smartphone Data From Unsuspecting Surveillance Targets

The IRS has been accused of buying Americans’ smartphone location data from a private surveillance company in order to track them. Last month, Democratic Senators Ron Wyden and Elizabeth Warren demanded a formal investigation into the IRS, and one was indeed launched on October 6th by the US Treasury’s Inspector General.

The IRS reportedly purchased this data from a company called Venntel, which scraps aggregate location data mined through regular apps like games and weather apps.

Governments and law enforcement agencies are able to bypass legal and constitutional limitations like the Fourth Amendment in order to obtain personally identifying information (PII) on their people without the need for a warrant.

Nanoscale Machines Convert Light Into Work

Researchers have developed a tiny new machine that converts laser light into work. These optically powered machines self-assemble and could be used for nanoscale manipulation of tiny cargo for applications such as nanofluidics and particle sorting.

“Our work addresses a long-standing goal in the nanoscience community to create self-assembling nanoscale machines that can perform work in conventional environments such as room temperature liquids,” said research team leader Norbert F. Scherer from the University of Chicago.

[This type of nano-scale machinery is vital for atomic-level assembly tools.

Should We Celebrate Halloween?

“Trick or treating” is a particularly important tradition in modern times, and once again this year most people will allow their children to freely roam the streets without even stopping to consider who their children will be getting candy from.

But the truth is that there are lots of predators out there. In fact, there are nearly a million registered sex offenders in the United States today, and Halloween is one of their biggest nights.

According to Mike O’Neal, the CEO of Keeping Kids Safe, it can be an opportunity for predators to invite small children to come back to their homes another time…

“If you go to a predator’s house and he has big candy bars and he says, ‘Listen, come back tomorrow and if I have some left over, I’ll give it to you,’ well of course the child’s gonna go, ‘You’re gonna have candy left over and you’re gonna give it to me? Sure I’ll come back tomorrow,’“ said O’Neal.

Do you really want to take a chance that your children could have those sorts of encounters?

Other predators are seeking to lure people for other purposes. Just consider the following example…

[…]

You may not be aware of the spiritual power involved in the ancient rituals that are conducted year after year, but that doesn’t mean that you are immune.

In a previous article, I listed 15 reasons why none of us should be celebrating “the Devil’s holiday”…

#1 Halloween is simply “a modernized version of the Druidic festival of the dead” known as Samhain.

#2 Samhain is one of the most important holidays on the Wiccan “wheel of the year”. In other words, it is considered to be a high holy day for witches all over the globe.

#3 Wiccan high priestess Doreen Valiente once made the following statement about this holiday: “Halloween is one of the four Great Sabbats of the witches that everyone has heard about. To witches, Halloween is a serious occasion, however merrily celebrated. It is the old Celtic Eve of Samhain.”

#4 Former Satanist John Ramirez says that he “sacrificed animals as part of satanic rituals” on Halloween, and now that he is a Christian pastor he warns people about how they can curse themselves by participating in Halloween traditions.

WHO Accidentally Confirms COVID is No More Dangerous Than Flu

October 4, 2020, the World Health Organization conducted a special meeting of its executive board, during which they announced that 10% of the world has been infected by SARS-CoV-2.

Dr. Michael Ryan, executive director of WHO’s Health Emergencies Program, released the numbers; WHO spokesperson Dr. Margaret Harris confirmed them later. Ryan expressed concern that the pandemic was still ongoing, but apparently didn’t do the math when it comes to comparing COVID-19 to annual flu numbers. Put plainly, Off-Guardian explains:

“The global population is roughly 7.8 billion people, if 10% have been infected that is 780 million cases. The global death toll currently attributed to Sars-Cov-2 infections is 1,061,539. That’s an infection fatality rate of roughly or 0.14%.

“Right in line with seasonal flu and the predictions of many experts from all around the world.”

Not only that, if the true COVID numbers are as inflated as some claim, it makes COVID-19 likely even less dangerous than flu. For those who need to confirm that the WHO actually gave these numbers, visit the WHO’s webpage (source below), scroll down to Session 1, click on it and skip to 1:01:33.

Who Knew? Dems’ Entitlement Mentality Extends to Governing!

The very briefest history of communism is this: It always fails, regardless of who tries it, regardless of where it is tried, and regardless of how it is tried. Every communist failure has been a human catastrophe.

This happens because in the heart of communism lives a flawed view of what makes us human. Whether it was Stalin’s gulag, the former USSR’s Siberian prison camps, or Mao’s Chinese communist reeducation camps, the underlying premise is the same. The minds of men and women are infinitely malleable and thus can be twisted into whatever grotesque shape the communist leadership determines is most beneficial for the new society.

Oddly enough, what is most beneficial for this new communist nation is that the new communist leadership — having toppled the old democratic leadership — continue to govern … forever.

In practice it never works out that way, because the central communist “truth” about humanity is false. Men and women are not infinitely malleable in what they believe and therefore in how they act. Coercion and violence may keep them in line for several generations, but in the midst of building their impossible “utopia,” the glorious revolution always drowns the nation in blood.

As Alexander Solzhenitsyn noted of Russian communism, “All this has happened to us because we have forgotten God.” If you don’t understand that God has a backdoor entrance into the human mind, then you will fail to understand what is taking place all around you. God is prying open His backdoor entrance into the human mind.

The First Demonstration of Braiding in Photonic Topological Zero Modes

Physics theory suggests that exotic excitations can exist in the form of bound states confined in the proximity of topological defects, for instance, in the case of Majorana zero modes that are trapped in vortices within topological superconducting materials. Better understanding these states could aid the development of new computational tools, including quantum technologies

One phenomenon that has attracted attention over the past few years is “braiding,” which occurs when electrons in particular states (i.e., Majorana fermions) are braided with one another. Some physicists have theorized that this phenomenon could enable the development of a new type of quantum technology, namely topological quantum computers.

[If all of that makes perfect sense, you’ve likely spent too much time indoors.]

  1. I don’t think Mrs Patel will do anything. How can the U.K. ban anyone it wants from entering the country like they did to Michael Savage, Martin Sellner, Lutz Bachmann, Robert Spencer, Pamela Geller and others for saying mean things about Islam, yet actual jihadists who went and fought for ISIS are incapable of being deported?

  2. To think that the presence of Muslims and their blind dark ignorance is even tolerated in our societies is a massive defeat. No feminists protesting. No armed rebellion. Nothing. This is not tolerance. To elect politicians who treat the citizenry like vermin thrown in with the dead Muslim is the crime of the century.

  3. “In other news, explosions were heard in Artsakh as both Armenia and Azerbaijan accused each other of violating the recent ceasefire.”

    Azerbaijan does not believe in ceasefire when massacring. We all know who breaks ceasefires. Turkey is speaking like Hitler exactly: The Final Solution.

    I wonder why that “Final Solution” does not resonate in Israel’s conscience and have empathy for one who suffers like them.

    But that pretentious ceasefire by Azebaijan is good for the west because they will harper on it day and night that Muslims believe in ceasefires and save lives.

    Oh planet earth thou hast an eternal enemy spawned by satan.

    Turkey is really laying the bricks for WW3. Eagerly.

    If turkey doesn’t engage with an external enemy they will have destructive civil
    wars. 5 loaves and 8 mouths. difficult.

  4. In an interview with Reuters, Jenkins stated that the shuttering of theaters “will not be a reversible process.” She continued, “We could lose movie theater-going forever.”

    Where was Jenkins when all of the American factories were being closed down? As usual, only when Hollyweird’s own ox is being gored do they let out a peep. I say let these movie stars stand in the bread lines along with all of their celebrity athlete pals.

  5. Oh Boy: Joe Biden Misreads Teleprompter and Calls for $15 Million Minimum Wage

  6. Regarding the shooting in Denver, the victim was part of a “patriot” demonstration but the shooter has been identified as a private security escort for a local TV station that was covering the demonstration. For some unknown reason the victim sprayed the security escort with OC prompting the security guard to shoot him. Neither the victim or the security guard were affiliated with antifa or BLM. Subject to further investigation, of course.

    • Even if the right-wing protestor unlawfully used spray on the security guard, as seems to be the case, the proper response is to contact the police so that they can make an arrest, not to reply with deadly force like the security guard did.

      The security guard strictly speaking might not be Antifa but he is a left wing activist.
