Can you think of anything that’s better when people who know nothing about it get involved? Michelle Obama apparently can, telling a crowd Sunday that “voting does not require any kind of special expertise.” In fact, she essentially said casting ballots is okay even if “you know nothing about nothing.”

They’re not really sure what hate is but are sure of this: They hate it. And thus should “it” — as represented by discrimination, exclusion, and a “dangerous nationalism”— be purged from the media via regulation.

So says Věra Jourová, the European Commissioner for Justice, Consumers, and Gender Equality.

Call it fake news meets Sesame Street. It wasn’t enough that the young were being indoctrinated in schools and via entertainment — now the Canadian government is targeting children with political propaganda through a news platform called CBC Kids News. Of course, though, while the reporters are child actors reading lines, the material is written by adults behind the scenes.

Also not surprising is that this “news” is infused with opinion, aimed at little people who (even more so than big ones) can’t tell the difference.

First there were anti-rape shorts created in Germany due to a migrant-driven sexual-assault epidemic. Now knife crime is so bad in Britain that some parents are buying their sons stab-proof vests. It’s what happens when loose immigration policy meets lenient punishment of criminals.

Is despotism our descendants’ destiny? Are they fated to live in a “Marxtrix”? And will rogue artificial intelligence put us out of our misery before any of this is too far along? These are good questions now with Wikileaks founder Julian Assange’s assertion that “the last free generation” is upon us and that “technologically advanced civilization” is “unstable” and may not “go on for long.”

Assange (shown), now in his seventh year living at the Ecuadorian embassy in London, made the remarks in an interview — the last one before the Ecuadorian government terminated his Internet and telephone — during the World Ethical Data Forum in Barcelona, Spain.

The man who switches political affiliations like clothes but manages to remain left-wing throughout, ex-NYC mayor Michael Bloomberg, is again talking about running for president as a Democrat. He absolutely is in many ways the perfect Democrat candidate, too — for the year 1986. As for 2018, he’s got the wrong color and sex combination for today’s identity-politics-über-alles Dems.

By don’t tell that to Little Bug Gulp (LBG — my affectionate nickname for the soda-sneering billionaire).

Some have called today’s lib radicals the “alt-Left” — but they’re really the alternate-universe Left. The majority of what they say not only isn’t the truth but is its polar opposite. A prime example is the handling of the case of Christine Blasey Ford, the California psychology professor accusing SCOTUS nominee Brett Kavanaugh of sexually assaulting her when he was a teen. While constituting a monkey wrench thrown into his confirmation process, her allegations smack of monkey business.

But however credible they may or may not be, and I’ll get to that momentarily, wholly incredible are Ford’s political allies. Left-wing senator Mazie Hirono (D-Hawaii) not only said Wednesday that men should just “shut up and step up,” but insisted that women such as Ford “need to be believed” (video below). Chuck Schumer, a man who sadly only takes Hirono’s second piece of advice, said he believes Ford.

Curiously, Hirono and Schumer don’t take this position with Keith Ellison (D-Minn.), credibly accused of physically abusing ex-girlfriend Karen Monahan. In fact, not only does Monahan complain that Democrats don’t believe her, but she says, “I’ve been smeared, threatened, isolated from my own party.”

It’s usually called the “Deep State.” The anonymous White House official writing the notorious September 5 New York Times op-ed labeled it, using an in-your-face euphemism, the “steady state.” Whatever you call it, we got one of the first real glimpses into it Tuesday with an undercover video showing a socialist, anti-Trump federal employee vowing to “Resist everything… Every level” and to “F**k s*** up.”

Moreover, the man boasted that he had “nothing to lose” because it’s “impossible to fire federal employees.”

An anti-white tweet can win a seat — at the media’s or academia’s table, seems to be the message. First there was Sarah Jeong, the New York Times editorial-board hire retained despite likening whites to “dogs” and “groveling goblins” on Twitter. Now there’s a guy an eHarmony algorithm might label her perfect match: University of Georgia (UG) teaching assistant Irami Osei-Frimpong, who compared southern whites to “sociopaths.”

An expert recently warned that Internet tech giants have the capacity to shift “upwards of 12 million votes” in an election. Now it has been revealed that Google did in fact engage in such manipulation, seeking to vault Hillary Clinton to victory in 2016 by trying to boost Latino turnout. Moreover, the only thing a company executive found distressing and shocking about this election interference is that Donald Trump nonetheless won 29 percent of the Hispanic vote.
