Joe Biden, whose administration has admitted it was engaging in censorship via Facebook, recently said that the social media platform was “killing people” by not removing COVID “misinformation.” His party would certainly know a lot about misinformation, too — after all, the Democrats have been peddling it since 1840.

It’s easy being idealistic when you don’t have to live with your ideals, when you can just outsource “your” sacrifice to the less powerful. There was, for example, the well-heeled Brooklyn parent who, reacting to an integration plan targeting his kids’ school, said in 2015, “It’s more complicated when it’s about your own children.” It’s also, apparently, more complicated when it’s about your own privilege.
This is the conclusion one writer drew when assessing Davidson College in North Carolina, a liberal arts institution that has a new mission: teaching white churches to be “less racist.” Here’s how Davidson describes its scheme, which is funded by a big-business-born foundation….

If they meant the NFL was happy, that would be one thing, though perhaps a fanciful claim given its ratings woes. But that’s certainly not what’s meant in an NFL ad that states, in part, “Football is Gay” — followed by “Football is lesbian. …Football is queer. …Football is transgender.” And football is…
…off patriots’ list?
In other words, the NFL has now coupled kneeling during the Anthem with kneeling before the sexual devolutionaries. What’s next, kneeling before tyrants?
(Oh, yeah, been there, done that. Remember China?)
The 30-second ad, which opens to the sounds of drums rolling and people cheering, also states “Football is for everyone.”

More than half of New York City schoolchildren can’t tackle basic English or math, but a congressman representing part of the city has a solution: a “Green New Deal for Public Schools.”
Well, I long ago wrote that education’s three r’s had become revisionism, relativism, and racism, but now we can add a fourth: risibility.
But you can decide to laugh or cry.

It’s a myth that the Great Wall of China is visible from space. But then there are the Beijing creations that can be seen from the heavens; namely, human waste, sewage, and wastewater dumped by the rogue nation into the South China Sea.
China is well known as possibly the world’s worst polluter. It’s responsible, for example, for the presence of 28 percent of ocean-polluting plastics (more than any other four countries combined) despite having only 18.59 percent of the global population and producing just under 17 percent of the world’s plastic. Moreover, China endures smog dense enough to block sunlight from solar panels, and a majority of its water is contaminated. Then there’s Sichuan Province, where farmers must pollinate their apple orchards by hand because pesticides have killed off their entire wild bee population.
And with Beijing’s great presence in the South China Sea — which it aims to dominate and where it has built artificial islands — it’s now further gifting its pollution to the wider world.

I was on for the whole 40-minute segment. We had a lot of time to delve into "The Acceptance Con": why a misguided tolerance leads to an intolerable future.
Unlike in the past, you don't have to do anything but click the start button.
For those interested, here's the essay that was the show's focus: "The Acceptance Con." I consider it one of the most important pieces I've ever written.

“White lightning, I presume…,” quipped an observer. This was one reaction to reports that a lightning strike destroyed a large Ohio mural honoring George Floyd. Another reaction, among “those who see the Hand of God in extraordinary natural phenomena,” as commentator Thomas Lifson put it, is that it’s “divine retribution.”

Some commentators have long pointed out that what’s euphemistically called “American immigration policy” is actually a massive voter-importation racket. If our (im)migrants voted Republican by the margins they do Democrats — 70 to 90 percent — these observers aver, our southern border would be impenetrable down to the molecular level. Now these critics have what they might call Exhibit A for their thesis:
The open-borders Biden administration announced on Tuesday, in so many words, that Cuban and Haitian refugees need not apply.
At the same time, there’s a shocking report that the administration has been using the military to secretly fly border-jumping illegal aliens into America’s interior.
