Happy Birthday America



Happy Birthday America

Celibrate America, the Greatest Country this planet has ever known, because we embrace freedom. Western Enlightenment Values in the hearts of the Founders led to the eventual end of universal slavery.

Review of the National Museum of African American History and Culture, and the National Museum of the American Indian

Review of the National Museum of African American History and Culture, and the National Museum of the American Indian.

History as portrayed by these "national museums" isn't true history. Both omit the following key facts & points:

1. The American project AKA the Western Enlightenment project, ended universal slavery.

2. The role of Islam w/slavery.
https://atlantablackstar.com/2014/06/02/10-facts-about-the-arab-enslavement-of-black-people-not-taught-in-schools/
and http://originalpeople.org/the-arab-muslim-slave-trade-of-africans-the-untold-story/

3. The fact that Amerindian tribes had slaves & wars of conquest.

4. The fact that the American Civil War was primarily fought over slavery. Member states of the Confederates States of America had to allow for slavery.

5. The black person museum talks of a paradox. Slavery being present in America at its founding was not a paradox, it was simply an indication of a transition period from universal slavery to an abolishment thereof. The gears of Western Enlightenment values took a few years to fully engage and to become more fully realized within an incorporated America.

6. 365,000 Northern Army pink skins AKA whites died so that universal slavery could be ended. The British Royal Navy also helped - more whitey blood spilt to end slavery.

If we're going to have group rights & blames & tribal rights & blames, where's my skin-color and lineage-based "reparations" for the fact that whitey blood was spilled to end universal slavery?

7. Yes some bad things happened when Europeans came to the American continent. But what good things happened as a result of European migration & settlement of America? What, good? The museums don't say. They omit the big oppressive problems with Amerindian culture pre-European influence. They omit the Islamic slave trade. They omit how Western Enlightenment values, as held in the hearts of people like George Washington & Thomas Jefferson helped to eventually and not that far off from America's founding, to end universal slavery. 

8. The Democrat party is the party of slavery, Jim Crow, the KKK, booting Amerindians off their lands, interning Japanese ancestry Americans during WWII, and importing anti Enlightenment anti American Marxism into America. Children are born innocent and are not to blame for past sins, but meme sets can be blamed. This is why I renounce my prior association with the Democrat party.

9. The African museum starts at 1400 and ends with the pinnacle of black American culture: The election of President Obama, a half black half pink-skin Marxist. When Obama was elected I banged on pots & pans also I recall, in celebration. But Obama's subsequent actions turned my good will to ashes, particularly how he trashed those who voted for Trump. Obama voters who decided to vote for Trump were trashed by Obama. Plus there's this issue: https://reason.com/2012/09/25/president-obama-says-we-must-condemn-tho <-traitorous to the Western Enlightenment & American projects.

10. Obama loved leftist terrorist Bill Ayers & anti-American anti-Enlightenment traitor Saul Alinsky. He also enjoyed anti-American racist race baiter Jeremiah Wright. Obama's father was basically an anti-Western-Civilization type guy whom Obama followed in the footsteps of.

Check Obama related books:
https://www.dineshdsouza.com/books/

11. Nothing of what D'Souza has reported on is mentioned at either museum. Actual historic facts don't fit into the preferred historical narrative of leftist elitist whites, academics, & race-baiting Ponzi scheme operating blacks & Amerindians.

12. I want all human groups to be successful, but not via cheating, Ponzi schemes, lying including lies of omission, and so on. The black & Amerindian communities are both hobbled by government dependence. Democrats helped replace the FATHER with the STATE in both communities. Democrat LBJ's Great Society destroyed the black family in America.

https://www.theamericanconservative.com/articles/lbj-vs-the-nuclear-family/

By the way a "native American" is anyone born in America. Amerindians are Amerindians. Using the term "native American" to only refer to Amerindians is a slap in the face & an insult to all born-innocent children natively born to America.

Children are born innocent & are not to blame for the sins of their ancestors nor for people who happen to have the same skin color. However we should take pride in the successes of our ancestors & all human groups.

The self hatred of the left is more toxic than self hatred on the right. At least the right values life & children & the traditional 1.2 billion year evolved family unit. Whereas the cultural left has a competition going to see who's the very best at not having children. Many black babies have been killed via leftist-whitey-promoted abortion.

What did whitey ever do for me? Good memes & good genes.

Different parrot breeds have different personalities.

Different dog breeds have different personalities - all are the same species.

Where did Western Enlightenment values come from? Freedom of speech, doubt, skepticism, reason, logic, Greek philosophers, Christianity, the Reformation, the Enlightenment, men on the moon, modern science & medicine, your iphone.

Did the above come about because of good memes, or good genes?

People like Steven Pinker and Jordan Peterson would probably push for the "good memes" route.

People like Ricardo Duchesne (search youtube for recent vids) and Stefan Molyneux (ditto) aren't afraid to give credence to the "good genes" route.

What can we blame whitey for?

1. An end to Universal Slavery, thanks to the UK Parliament, and to the good Englishmen who founded America. Also thanks to 365,000 pink skins (AKA "whites") who died to the American Civil War.

2. The rule of law.

3. Regulating the power of a monarch by an elected representatives.

4. A separation of church and state.

5. Innovation and creativity unmatched by other groups on this planet.

So, was it good memes, or good genes to blame for the above? A complication was that there's a synergy between genes and memes.

Every human flavor has their strong traits. Their advantages, which are frankly probably evolved, and evolved for darn good reasons.

As for whites, it's incredibly racist and utterly unfair to hoist the problems of the world onto white children who are born innocent.

If all races get to be proud of their contributions except for whites, well that really is retrograde and racist.

I married an East Asian and so I have no problem with so-called "race mixing" per se of course. But I also have no problem with people having some degree of in group preference. Freedom of association means the freedom to not associate. That's fine.

Don't treat pink skins like we're vending machines who cough up money when other races try & guilt trip us for past sins.

Amerindians, had slaves, and did pretty much all human groups from the beginning of time.

Aboriginal Australians, had slaves,

Islamic people, promoted slavery.

Yes in the past whitey did things all other human groups did. But is the greatest contribution to the human family, from pink skins, the key concept that we need to doubt what our leaders tell us? Doubt is the foundation of reason, and of science, and of true progress. To separate facts from fiction, we must doubt.

The poodle which are the pink skinned whites of the human family. Good genes which allowed for doubt, or just good memes? Perhaps a combination. And if Steven Pinker & other public intellectuals are made uncomfortable by the truth of origins of the Western Enlightenment, so be it.

The Western Enlightenment versus Democrat leftist slavery

The Western Enlightenment versus Democrat leftist slavery:

Lies underpin rackets. The racket of the Democrat party for example.

The social justice warriors sit in their meeting houses (such as at Unitarian Universalist churches). They dream of who can be the top level victim next.

1. Muslims, and especially hijab/burqa wearing Saudi style Muslims.
2. "Childfree" third wave feminists with blue hair.
3. The gender dysphoric (transexuals).
4. The sexual orientation dysphoric (aka gays).
5. Mexicans.
6. 'Native' Americans AKA Amerindians.
7. Leftist black women.
8. Leftist black men.
9. Leftist white women.
10. Conservative black women.
11. Conservative black men.
12. Asian men & women.
13. Conservative white women.
14. Leftist white men.
15. Conservative white men.
16. Ex-Muslims.

It's a victimhood competition.

The only way for a pink skin (ie: white), to move up the list is to either a.) become Muslim, or b.) deny your 1.2 billion year evolved DNA coded gender, or c.) engage in the lie first hand that forcing yourself to (or 'catching' a stupid meme that you should) be a NON-inherently-reproductive outlier.

The left today only wants a diversity regarding superficial traits, but a monoculture regarding social theory - only their theory allowed.

The meme set known as the Democrat Party is responsible for slavery and booting Amerindians off of their land.

As a reflexive naive chump noob atheist I too glommed onto the idea that the Democratic Party was for the common man and 'individual rights.'

But the right to do what?Historically: the right to be a slave or a master. The right to be lighter skinned, vs the right to be booted off of your land. The right to have your ancestors be from Europe, versus the right to have ancestors from Japan thereby resulting in your internment.

And today, the right to be a happy heathy normal female and male in a family with children, versus the right to be an abusive denialist unhappy suicidal forced outlier.

The right to be the master of your destiny, versus the right to be a slave in a current urban Democrat Plantation.

The right to be born once conceived, versus the right to he killed via a Margaret Sanger poor and black people hating eugenicist legacy group.

The right to be true to your heritage as a 1.2 billion year sexual history sexually dimorphic animal - one who's been to the moon and who crafted the best meme sets which help humans thrive: the Enlightenment and America. Versus the right to be a moron chump who believes a pack a lies so that a sociopathic elite can skate on top of your labor and support via indentitarian virtue signaling and having group rights versus individual rights.

I now choose to be with the moon walking people versus the belly button staring slaves.

U.S. Constitution didn't come from the Bible. Rather it came as a direct result of The Reformation & The Enlightenment.

The U.S. Constitution didn't come from the Bible. Rather it came as a direct result of The Reformation & The Enlightenment.

On the back of Modified and Enlightened and Evolved Christian tradition.

So not directly from the Bible, but it was done by children raised within the general European Christian tradition that's true.

When I examine who on the social & political landscape supports a.) the freedom to draw Mohamed, and b.) the publishing of such cartoons, the list is very small: Libertarians who're mostly conservative, and a few very (very) lonely leftists.

When Obama states that his preferred future belongs to people who never talk smack about Mohamed or the prophets of other religions, he's turning his back on the principles of The Enlightenment, principles which allowed America and it's Constitution to exist in the first place. He's also turning his back on all the people who want to (f-ing) leave abusive cults like Islam (& Mormonism & other highly abusive religions).

more info:
http://reason.com/blog/2012/09/25/president-obama-says-we-must-condemn-tho

So, it's true that ex-Muslims / atheists who pop up, rather naturally these days, within Islamic theocracies are little gems who should be valued & protected. They exist & live within countries which are essentially meat grinders, grinding against all opposition to the status quo.

Here's a special vid of an atheist visiting Mecca:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SQ5x0vAEaCw

I'm sure that Obama would be upset by such a vid, as per his past comments about the supposed strong need to never offend a devout cult member.

Before 9/11 I had mostly zero idea what Islam was about. After 9/11 I woke up & realized that people in Islamic countries sometimes find their lives to be so shitty that they lash out in unhinged ways - misdirected anger. The 9/11 attacks were performed by men who were angry - but they should have been angry at their religion rather than at 3000+ innocent people in those towers.

The Enlightenment human tradition is a unique one, and one that should be valued. Freedom of speech. Freedom of thought. Freedom of religion. Freedom from religion. Freedom of commerce (mostly). Governmental transparency (hopeful). Freedom for science to progress. Freedom for science to question traditional religious dogmas & doctrines regarding literalist interpretations of a god. When leftists like Glenn Greenwald and Noam Chomsky (& many other 'regressive' leftists) blame America first for all that is wrong with the Middle East, they're also turning their backs on the Enlightenment tradition which allows them to speak & exist in the first place.

Mr. Greenwald is gay for example. If he lived in an Islamic theocracy he'd be suppressed at the very least or killed at worst.

The cold war abuses of America are not responsible for every single thing that ails the world. Religious theocracy, that of a specific religion, is largely to blame. And yes, it's a religion - that is Islam is a religion.

Before 9/11 I sat in my little ex-Mormon chamber and just thought about ex-Mormon things. I knew Joseph Smith was a charismatic charlatan. I know Brigham Young was an abusive authoritarian theocratic bozo. I relished the works of people like Monty Python with their general criticism of Christianity (eg: Life of Brian), and of Mormon specific humorist organizers like Steve Clark (operator of Latter-Day Lampoon now renamed The Salamander Society).

Consider what Muslim versions of the following works of art would look like?

Life of Brian:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monty_Python's_Life_of_Brian

Latter-Day Lampoon (aka Salamander Society):
http://salamandersociety.com/

Would Obama approve?

How about your average MSNBC & CBC & BBC presenter?

So I was raised in an itty-bitty religion which has as it's key tenant a required cult of personality revolving around this guy named Joseph Smith. Then when I got older I wised up & left that religion.

That whole experience provided greater insight into the entirely of the situation with Islam, it's followers, and those who want to leave it and be free of it.

A communist who left it (Maryam Namazie):
http://freethoughtblogs.com/maryamnamazie/2013/02/01/world-hejab-day/

A libertarian (Ayaan Hirsi Ali):
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ayaan_Hirsi_Ali

Another libertarian & big Ayn Rand supporter (Bosch Fawstin):
http://fawstin.blogspot.com/

And some people stay in to varying degrees, or are just 'marginally' in:

Maajid Nawaz:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maajid_Nawaz

Tawfik Hamid:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pxfo11A7XuA

Maajid is considered an 'Uncle Tom' by hijab-loving Muslims though. And Tawfik is a former hard line Muslim w/key info re how Sunni flavor Islam prompts young men within it to consider getting virgins in paradise via suicide as a viable option for sexual expression (check the vid linked to above).

Charlie Hebdo was mostly killed off, and it's remaining members have given up publishing drawings of the prophet of Islam. So Obama's preferred future has been fulfilled re Hebdo. Hebdo was and is an ultra-leftist publication, but one which was 'very lonely' on the left - lonely like Bill Maher is, and lonely like Sam Harris is, and like Salman Rushdie is. Lonely leftists who could never get a Mohamed cartoon published in any mainline leftie publication if they tried.

In any case, I was raised an American Democrat. Now I'm a general middle of the roader. A moderate Republican/Libertarian, or a very very blue dog Democrat. But as per the response of the left to Hebdo (the murder of the artists) & Garland (Garland, Texas cartoon contest attempted to be shot up by Islamic adherents) though I'm a bit loath to refer myself as a Democrat at all. The response of the left to those events shows that the left, as it stands today, as nothing to offer people who want to a.) leave Islam, or b.) criticize Islam exactly the same way we've been criticizing Christianity for hundreds of years.

Also America isn't a full democracy. It's a republic. A representative democracy. There republicanism helps to quell craziness & chaos & stupidity which can come from 'full democracy.'

When 'democracy' came to the Islamic middle east, the secularists were mostly drowned out by the thoecrats (so far).

Where in an Islamic 'democracy' is one free to draw Mohamed? Nowhere? Then the principles of the Enlightenment are not being fully engaged. Freedom of speech. Freedom of though. Freedom of religion. Freedom from religion. Freedom for science to examine & critique literalist religious claims which touch upon the physical world. And so on.

There's slight bright spots here & there. Example:
http://www.breitbart.com/national-security/2015/12/30/egypt-president-calls-for-islamic-reform-again-in-muhammad-birthday-speech/
http://www.clarionproject.org/videos/egypts-president-el-sisi-calls-islamic-reformation

But in which Islamic country can one be an atheist openly? Criticize Mohamed? Draw Mohamed? Lampoon Mohamed - EXACTLY the way Monty Python did regarding Anglican Christianity? Nowhere yet.

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2530920/You-parody-Islam-says-Palin-Monty-Python-star-believes-religious-sensitivities-increased-impossible-make-Life-Brian-today.html

But some ex-Muslims (and friends) somewhere shall do this someday soon I hope (parody Islam in total Life of Brian style & more).

Thank God for the Crusades - speaking as an atheist

Remembering "what did the Romans ever do for us" from Life of Brian.

Speaking as an atheist thank god for the Crusades. Christianity may be bad but it's a hell of a lot better than Islam.

Your average self-hating leftist today would rather kiss Allah's ass than that of Jesus.

Christianity always was better than Islam, and Christianity had a Reformation and Enlightenment. Islam has had neither! Maybe it's starting to have the beginnings of a Reformation now. But when Saudi style Islam comes to town the women go into their bags much more and Islam becomes less diverse. And also Islam is not a religion which lends itself to critical inquiry. Very few books get translated into Arabic for example. 
  
It almost goes without saying that the left everywhere are clueless on all these points, with the rare exception of people like Salmam Rushdie, Sam Harris, Ayaan Hirsi Ali and so on. 9/11 liberals with a small l. But most liberals give liberalism a bad name on this issue.


Regarding Pam Geller yes she has her agenda. But in the face of Islam and it's dangers and abuses I think we should make note of useful facts wherever they come from. I'm no longer a knee-jerk righty-hater. The right is right on some issues. Isn't that what true skepticism and reason are supposed to be about? The answers don't always lie with the relativist hippie colored glasses left.

Music for the Taliban, Muslim Brotherhood, and everyone in Pakistan, Afghanistan, and Iraq

Music for the Taliban, Muslim Brotherhood, and everyone in Pakistan, Afghanistan, and Iraq:

One key reason the people in Pakistan are so upset is because they are sexually repressed. Here's for promoting American culture. Noam Chomsky (more) & Amy Goodman are idiots. 9/11 was the result of misdirected anger.

In Pakistan, Afghanistan, and parts of Iraq women are kept in bags. People cannot date. Men & women both are taught to be afraid of sexual thoughts. Hide the hair because it might activate the sexual part of your brain. Hide everything as much as possible of the female body, because you're afraid of having a sexual thought. That is evil - and it creates angry people. Angry men who have been abused. Freedom can come through *more* exposure to Western culture AKA boisterous rambunctious western music.
