The aforesaid demonize me, denigrate me, and condemn me in the Wheaton Bowl Banquet Hall and elsewhere as being a religious hypocrite because I am not a member of any church, because I do not attend church services, and because I do not give money to a church. They a) reject planks in the Republican Party platform and/or the Illinois Republican Party platform and work against those like me who support those planks, b) reject the Milton Township Republican Central Committee resolution against video gambling and work against those like me who support that resolution, c) focus on destroying those like me who they cannot manipulate/dominate, d) were defendants in lawsuits that I have filed, and/or e) are operatives or dupes for the aforesaid.)

— Lady Blue: The role of women in deepening an already blue Illinois During the 2018 midterms, already blue Illinois moved further on the color spectrum towards indigo — thanks, in part, to an uptick in the share of votes coming from women for women. (DIERSEN: Trump-haters shout at women, and at everyone else, that Trump and his supporters are White supremacists, Nazis, KKK members, haters, racists, sexists, bigots, and even worse things who should be gotten rid of once and for all. I would not be surprised if the Trump-hating women in my precinct organized a mob and came to my front door and demanded that I condemn Trump. Only 137 voted for Trump in my precinct while 211 voted for Clinton.)

EPOCH TIMES
— What’s Wrong With Reparations? – Mark Hendrickson (DIERSEN: What do Democrats use against you to demand that you pay reparations? My critics/opponents stress that I am Trump supporter, Protestant (baptized, raised, and confirmed as a Missouri Synod Lutheran), conservative, patriotic, Republican, American, White, male, old (born in 1948), married, childless, pet-less, non-poor, gun owner, 100% German American, my ancestors have been in America since 1844. In my defense, my ancestors always lived in northeast Illinois and they never had enough money to discriminate against anyone if they wanted to.)
https://www.theepochtimes.com/whats-wrong-with-reparations_2840159.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: I ask, if slavery was so vile and indefensible, as 99 percent of Americans today know it was, then what is wrong with reparations? With apologies to the poet, “let me count the ways.” Reparations would violate a key principle of justice. It would punish those who have harmed nobody. The drive to penalize innocent Americans solely on the ground that they had a guilty ancestor seems as fanatically demented to me as a Christian zealot who hates Jews because “the Jews” were the ones who had Jesus executed a couple of millennia ago. Reparations are racist. I would be expected to pay compensation to the descendants of American slaves even though my grandparents didn’t come to the United States until after the Civil War. They were poor people who never owned slaves in either the Old World or the New. The only reason I would be expected to pay would be because I am white. My whiteness would be my guilt. But that precept has no more moral justification than blacks being denied their rights for being black. This is just the “two wrongs don’t make a right” principle Reparations are unconstitutional. After the Civil War, Americans voted to abolish the immoral institution of slavery. The 13th Amendment stipulates, “Neither slavery nor involuntary servitude, except as a punishment for crime whereof the party shall have been duly convicted, shall exist within the United States. …” Since living Americans can’t possibly be convicted of the crime of slavery, it would be unconstitutional to subject white Americans to the economic “involuntary servitude” of having to turn over a share of the fruits of their labor to Americans of a different race. It was wrong when blacks were compelled to work for the enrichment of whites, and it would be wrong today to compel whites to work for the enrichment of blacks. Reparations are selective. Slavery is a sad component of a brutal human history. The practice was widespread, and in fact persists in some parts of the world today. Not only did whites enslave blacks, but so did blacks. And blacks enslaved whites. And let’s not even get into Asia’s history of slavery. Nor was slavery the only way in which human rights were horribly abused. Should the peoples of Eastern Europe and Western Asia be entitled to reparations because of the depredations of Attila the Hun and Genghis Khan? Should those descended from English serfs be recompensed for the indignities, deprivations, and bondage they suffered? I mean, how far back do you want to go? If you want to claim reparations for every American with an ancestor who was treated unjustly, brutally, etc., then how can you arbitrarily limit reparations to African-Americans? Reparations are like Pandora’s box—you open it and soon you are plagued with a proliferation of bad things. Reparations are backward-looking. Well, yes, of course they are in the sense that some believe that retribution for past offenses would be rectified by reparations, but I am referring here to the costs of living in the past instead of living in the present for the sake of the future. If you want to see how harmful it is to dwell in the past, take a look at the Middle East. While Jews and Arabs who have buried the past and live and work for a peaceful future for all are to be highly commended, it is self-evident from the recurring conflicts there that too many people just can’t let go of the past. Instead, they are willing to subject their children to the horrors of war in the perennially futile attempt to settle scores that are thousands of years old. Reparations would have us dwell on the worst aspects of our history rather than lifting us above them. Reparations are hypocritical. Craven progressive politicians endorse reparations in the cynical attempt to win “the black vote.” What incredible effrontery this is. Progressives are the ones who have used “urban renewal” as a pretext to bulldoze African-American business districts; the ones who devised welfare programs that incentivized single parenthood with devastating consequence for African-American families and neighborhoods; the ones who today strive to deny African-American children school choice and keep them on the teachers’ unions’ plantations. Now progressive hypocrites seek to portray themselves as champions of justice for the very African-American citizens whom they have repeatedly ruined. Reparations are unaffordable. We can’t afford even a fraction of the Green New Deal, yet the politicians who seem most supportive of reparations tend to be the same ones who want to spend us broke on the Green New Deal. Progressives remain oblivious to the simple reality that we live in a world of finite financial resources, and the astronomical costs of their various policy wish-lists are telling them that they have to prioritize and make choices. For example, do they prefer to try to “fix” the past by paying reparations or do they want to “fix” the future by retooling the American economy? At $22 trillion of national debt and counting, why the eagerness to saddle our children with even more debt?)

https://qz.com/1574293/facebook-and-twitter-couldnt-handle-the-new-zealand-shooting/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Twitter, where the shooter posted his screed, and where it subsequently spread, told Quartz that it was “proactively working to remove the video content.” The company, which would not comment on individual accounts, stated that its hate-speech policy prohibits “behavior that targets individuals based on protected categories including race, ethnicity, national origin or religious affiliation.” This would include “references to violent events where protected groups have been the primary targets or victims,” which would presumably make the manifesto fall under this policy.)
