WASHINGTON EXAMINER
— Biden is responsible for the ‘systemic racism’ he professes to oppose – Zachary Faria
https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/opinion/biden-is-responsible-for-the-systemic-racism-he-professes-to-oppose
(FROM THE ARTICLE: According to the Urban Institute, black and Hispanic landlords have lower incomes and own fewer properties than their white counterparts. They are also “more likely to have a mortgage than own their building outright” and make up a disproportionate number of the landlords who have at least one mortgage in forbearance. This isn’t the first time that Biden, who professes to care so much about equity, has pushed damaging policies that disproportionately harm minorities. Biden’s Title IX changes, which treat students accused of sexual misconduct as guilty until proven, also disproportionately harm black college students. The systemic racism Biden has warned so much about is coming from inside the White House. In pursuing policies that make liberals feel good but are damaging when put in place, as both the eviction moratorium and Title IX changes are, Biden is perpetuating the very problem he claims to be so concerned about. The narrative around systemic racism somehow does not apply to these Democratic policies, proving once again that it is a political narrative and nothing more. That will remain true the next time Biden takes the podium to denounce another GOP voting law as being a new version of Jim Crow.)

— The critical race theory haters are blind to savage structural inequalities in our public schools – DAN WEISBERG
(DIERSEN: My parents sent me to a) Trinity Lutheran Grade School in Crete 1953-1961, b) Hope Lutheran Grade School in Park Forest 1961-1962 to stay with the Missouri Synod, and c) Crete-Monee High School 1962-1966. My critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes have always hinted/implied/argued/shouted that I had tremendous unfair advantages in life. If that is true, why did I take BAD JOBS that they would never stoop to take? I did yard work and delivered newspapers 1962-1964; washed dishes 1964-1966; cleaned golf shoes, chipped slag, and pumped gasoline in 1966; delivered mail 1966-1969; worked on an automobile assembly line and as a security guard in 1970; sold tires, automotive services, and major appliances 1970-1971; pumped gasoline 1971-1972; collected delinquent taxes 1971-1980; and audited federal agencies 1980-1997. They hint/imply/argue/shout that I took those BAD JOBS because I am lazy and stupid. In my defense, I earned a) a job-related bachelor’s degree when I was 21 in 1970 and job-related master’s degrees when I was 27, 31, and 48, b) job-related professional certifications when I was 30, 32, 41, 45, 47, and 48, and c) a job-related professional license when I was 32. Further, in my defense, those who hired me and those who promoted me in 1972, 1973, 1974, and 1986 were under tremendous pressure from Democrat politicians to hire and promote Democrats, and especially Democrats who were minority, female, younger, and/or veteran.)

I earned a) a job-related bachelor’s degree when I was 21 in 1970 and job-related master’s degrees when I was 27, 31, and 48, b) job-related professional certifications when I was 30, 32, 41, 45, 47, and 48, and c) a job-related professional license when I was 32. According to my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes, I am extremely stupid. Therefore, if I could do the aforesaid, just about anyone could do the aforesaid.)
https://theintercept.com/2021/08/14/laura-ingraham-capitalists-labor/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: THURSDAY NIGHT on Fox News, Laura Ingraham straightforwardly expressed the key challenge for capitalism: How can bosses get people to do awful, degrading jobs for little pay in order to make other people rich? “The government is literally putting anvils, in many ways, on people’s shoulders, either through the mandates, regulations, and now through free money,” Ingraham said to her guest, reality TV host Jon Taffer. “If we are not causing people to be hungry to work, then we’re providing them with all the meals they need sitting at home,” Taffer agreed. “These benefits make absolutely no sense to us.” Capitalism has been grappling with this problem for hundreds of years, but as history and Ingraham show, the answer now is the same as it’s always been: The laboring classes must be forced into circumstances in which they must work or starve.)

AMERICAN RENAISSANCE
— What’s Ahead for Whites – Jared Taylor
(DIERSEN: I should write a book about turncoat Whites who promote hatred against Whites, and especially against Whites who are law enforcement officers, Trump supporters, conservative, patriotic, Republican, American, male, older, non-veteran, heterosexual, married, non-poor, gun owners, Christian, Protestant, Italian American, German American, and/or those whose ancestors have been in America for a long time.)
https://www.amren.com/videos/2021/08/whats-ahead-for-whites/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: What’s ahead for white people in this country? First, there will be fewer of us. . .And we’re getting more non-whites. . .If you think this is a “great replacement,” Wikipedia says you believe in “a white nationalist conspiracy theory.” . . . Our country treats whites like a problem that must be solved. . .Every big organization has an army of people promoting “diversity.” Diversity means fewer white people, especially white men. . .You’ve heard of Critical Race Theory, which says all white people have unfair privileges and oppress everyone else whether we want to or not. That’s just our nature. . .Not one elected official talks about the interests of whites. I can’t remember when a politician even said anything good about white people. We are citizens of this country, but we might as well be stateless people who are just allowed to live here. Our government treats us like an embarrassment. The George Floyd riots were an eruption of contempt for whites. . .So, what’s ahead? More non-whites and their white “allies” will make policy. Blacks and Hispanics can’t succeed the way we do, so there will be ruthless preferences for them that will mean discrimination against us. Congress could pass new laws, but it won’t have to. Every non-white preference today is based on “civil rights” laws that were supposed to ban racial discrimination – so laws don’t matter. There could be race quotas for directors and executives of all companies. Race quotas for juries and grand juries – and these would be floors, not ceilings. Our rulers will pressure private companies to muzzle dissidents. They could tell banks not to give us mortgages. Cut off our electricity, water, telephone. If that doesn’t work, call what we say hate speech and make it a crime. If the Supreme Court tries to save the First Amendment, pack the court. Impose a “reparations” tax. Every white person making more than a certain amount would pay an additional 10 percent of gross income. There could be an even bigger “white privilege” tax on inheritances. Whites got their wealth through oppression, so they shouldn’t be able to pass it on. Make anyone buying a gun sign a diversity pledge. Impose a stiff anti-hate tax on any marriage license granted to two white people. “Progressive stacking” will become routine. That means, in a group, white people – especially white men – speak last. And when whites speak in public, they will start by confessing their white privilege and apologize for standing on land they stole. The CDC, along with 200 local jurisdictions, says racism is a “serious public health threat.” Declare white neighborhoods a public health threat and force them to integrate. We did it with school busing; we can do it with neighborhoods. I don’t know if all these things will happen; some will, for sure. But oppression will intensify at different rates in different places, so whites will gather in the least oppressive ones. You can move to one of those places. Whites will eventually elect representatives who stand up for them. You should be a part of that. The bitter truth is, we can’t save the whole country. We built it and we made it great, but it’s not ours anymore. Our goal should be local autonomy and eventual independence, so encourage all secession movements. Liberals are vicious, but if we are determined to leave, I don’t think they will kill us just to keep our corpses in the Union. Our rulers hate our history and despise us. They should be happy to see us go. So, it’s up to us to make this happen, and up to us alone. The decision is ours. If we want a place of our own on this continent, where we can be an outpost of Europe – without apologies and for ever – we have to make it happen.)

https://www.conservativewoman.co.uk/how-to-defeat-the-activist-media/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: A workable solution, therefore, to the problem of the activist media must necessarily be one in which postmodern theory is jettisoned in favour of a new approach. One which abandons the neo-Marxist oppressor/oppressed paradigm, and the ‘us v them’ mentality it fosters. One which rejects the denial of objective truths to which we can all hold. Truth, beauty, reason all exist, and we must not be afraid to say so.)

She said the more she learned about it, the more she felt it was regressive and divisive by teaching children race or gender directly impacts outcomes. “You are having students segregated by their color, by their sexuality, by their any number of filters that an activist teacher can choose and say ‘so because of your skin color you are a problem, because of your skin color you will never make it in life, because of this intangible systemic problem in one of the greatest countries in the world,’ and to me, it’s to me extremely anti-Americanism, it’s anti-child and I believe it to be child abuse,” Adcock told WMAY. “Teach history, there’s no question about that, but when you begin filtering students, this becomes a problem and it’s a violation, a constitutional violation.” She said the curriculum can take many different names and forms, so she and others seeing similar trends in other parts of the state started the website AwakeIL.com as a way to share information with taxpayers, parents and educators about trends around the state. “We are going to preserve the integrity of our constitution, state and federal, and we’re going to take that divisive curricula and segregationist approach to education out of our classrooms,” she said.)

— JULY 1, 2011 FLASHBACK: Do July 4th festivities make you Republican? – LUCY MADISON
(DIERSEN: I should write a book about the ever-increasing opposition to Wheaton Independence Day parades and opposition to Republican participation in them. Of course, January 6 has increased opposition to Wheaton Independence Day parades and opposition to Republican participation in them.)
https://www.cbsnews.com/news/do-july-4th-festivities-make-you-republican/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: A new study argues that July 4th celebrations may not be as innocent as they seem – at least from the democratic perspective. According to the report, published by Harvard University, July 4th-themed festivities (defined by the study as fireworks, parades, political speeches, and barbecues) not only energize primarily Republicans, but also turn children into Republicans and increase GOP voter turnout. Simply put: “Fourth of July celebrations in the United States shape the nation’s political landscape by forming beliefs and increasing participation, primarily in favor of the Republican Party,” says the report, which was written by Harvard Kennedy School Assistant Professor David Yanagizawa-Drott and Bocconi University Assistant Professor Andreas Madestam. “The political right has been more successful in appropriating American patriotism and its symbols during the 20th century,” the authors write. “Survey evidence also confirms that Republicans consider themselves more patriotic than Democrats. According to this interpretation, there is a political congruence between the patriotism promoted on Fourth of July and the values associated with the Republican party.” The study suggests that celebrating July 4 is, essentially, a lose-lose proposition for Democrats: Not only will they not likely gain any devotees from the festivities – they might actually lose some. “There is no evidence of an increased likelihood of identifying as a Democrat, indicating that Fourth of July shifts preferences to the right rather than increasing political polarization,” the study continues. Children, the authors posit, are particularly vulnerable to the implications of the (apparently) politically-loaded parades. “Fourth of July celebrations in Republican dominated counties may thus be more politically biased events that socialize children into Republicans,” say Yanagizawa-Drott and Madestam. “We were surprised to find that childhood experiences of Fourth July celebrations could have such persistent effects. The evidence suggests that important childhood events can have a permanent impact on political beliefs and behavior and that Fourth of July celebrations in the US affect the nation’s political landscape,” adds Yanagizawa-Drott. Of course, not everyone will be particularly concerned with the possible political implications of July 4th celebrations. If you’re looking for a more patriotic experience, you might want to check out a parade in a particularly Republican-skewing part of town – according to the report, “Republican adults celebrate Fourth of July more intensively in the first place.”)

BOSTON HERALD
— APRIL 24, 2019 FLASHBACK: Dracut bars local Republicans from marching in Memorial Day parade – AMARIS CASTILLO
(DIERSEN: I should write a book about the ever-increasing opposition to Wheaton Independence Day parades and opposition to Republican participation in them. Of course, January 6 has increased opposition to Wheaton Independence Day parades and opposition to Republican participation in them.)
https://www.bostonherald.com/2019/04/24/dracut-bars-local-republicans-from-marching-in-memorial-day-parade/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Last week, the Dracut Republican Town Committee was not allowed to march in the town’s Memorial Day Parade on May 27. On Tuesday, they were. Finally, by midday Wednesday, the committee was barred again, turning the festivities into a political hot potato. Town Committee Chairman Brian Genest, in an email to The Lowell Sun, called the decision “… the underbelly of Dracut politics at its worst. The town is trying to pass the buck, which is total nonsense, and the Board of Selectmen should be ashamed of the political tactics they are allowing to silence free speech and our right to march. … “Our organization is a group of dedicated and patriotic town citizens who support our veterans, our community and our country. Stopping our group from marching is just plain wrong. Our members include an Air Force veteran and an Army veteran!” Richard Ducharme, commander of the American Legion Post 315, made the post’s final decision, citing its national policy on participation by political organizations. He said the Legion puts on the event, while the town helps organize the order of bands and participants. “It’s a Legion policy and that goes all the way to Nationals. We are not supposed to be affiliated with any political groups,” Ducharme said. “I appreciate them trying to support us and they can do that, but as far as marching in a group, we cannot allow that. We let the GOP go in, we let the Democrats in and the Independents, and we don’t want to turn this into a political rally. The Memorial Day Parade is somber. It’s to remember our fallen comrades.” “What is so questionable about letting Republicans honor and support our veterans?” an angry Genest said over the phone Monday. “They’d rather have a patriotic dog than a patriotic Republican. It’s nothing but pure and petty politics.” Genest said on Monday he believed Town Manager Jim Duggan was behind the initial ban. Duggan, in an email, said he was not going to politicize the event. On Tuesday night, the board of selectmen became involved. Duggan was directed to permit the town committee to march, after back-and-forth and disagreement between Duggan and a few of the selectmen. Duggan raised concerns about political candidates marching in the parade and said he checked with the Old Home Day Committee, the members of which at first allowed political groups to have tents at the event but later reversed their decision. Genest accused the Old Home Day Committee of discriminating against the town committee in the past. Dave Paquin of the Old Home Day Committee said that years ago they were forced to ban political candidates and groups from participating in the community event because attendees complained they were being harassed. Duggan on Wednesday said the town’s role in the Memorial Day parade is strictly to coordinate and enforce the wishes of the American Legion, and outreach. A flier uploaded onto the Dracut government website said participation in this year’s parade is open to businesses, individuals and organizations. Participation ideas included dance and karate studios, decorated antique and classic cars, and dogs in patriotic attire.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: Democratic political candidates can skip this weekend’s July 4th parades. A new Harvard University study finds that July 4th parades energize only Republicans, turn kids into Republicans, and help to boost the GOP turnout of adults on Election Day. “Fourth of July celebrations in the United States shape the nation’s political landscape by forming beliefs and increasing participation, primarily in favor of the Republican Party,” said the report from Harvard. “The political right has been more successful in appropriating American patriotism and its symbols during the 20th century. Survey evidence also confirms that Republicans consider themselves more patriotic than Democrats. According to this interpretation, there is a political congruence between the patriotism promoted on Fourth of July and the values associated with the Republican party. Fourth of July celebrations in Republican dominated counties may thus be more politically biased events that socialize children into Republicans,” write Harvard Kennedy School Assistant Professor David Yanagizawa-Drott and Bocconi University Assistant Professor Andreas Madestam. Their findings also suggest that Democrats gain nothing from July 4th parades, likely a shocking result for all the Democratic politicians who march in them. “There is no evidence of an increased likelihood of identifying as a Democrat, indicating that Fourth of July shifts preferences to the right rather than increasing political polarization,” the two wrote. The three key findings of those attending July 4th celebrations: When done before the age of 18, it increases the likelihood of a youth identifying as a Republican by at least 2 percent. It raises the likelihood that parade watchers will vote for a Republican candidate by 4 percent. It boosts the likelihood a reveler will vote by about 1 percent and increases the chances they’ll make a political contribution by 3 percent. What’s more, the impact isn’t fleeting. “Surprisingly, the estimates show that the impact on political preferences is permanent, with no evidence of the effects depreciating as individuals become older,”said the Harvard report. Finally, the report suggests that if people are looking for a super-patriotic July 4th, though should head to Republican towns. “Republican adults celebrate Fourth of July more intensively in the first place.”)

(DIERSEN: Should those on unemployment be expected to take bad jobs? According to my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes, all the jobs that I had were bad jobs that they would never stoop to take. I did yard work and delivered newspapers 1962-1964; washed dishes 1964-1966; cleaned golf shoes, chipped slag, and pumped gasoline in 1966; delivered mail 1966-1969; worked on an automobile assembly line and as a security guard in 1970; sold tires, automotive services, and major appliances 1970-1971; pumped gasoline 1971-1972; collected delinquent taxes 1971-1980; and audited federal agencies 1980-1997.)
