October 6, 2018

We went down to the University of Wisconsin Library Mall because we saw the announcement from our local socialists: "We must show the ruling class we are not going anywhere."

"If Kavanaugh is approved tomorrow it will only be the beginning of sustained mass movement that will come for more than the rapists and misogynists they put and hold in power. Down with Trump, down with Kavanaugh, down with the GOP, down with the patriarchy and down with capitalism!"



There are a lot of people milling around downtown Madison. It's a Farmers' Market day on the square. It's a big football Saturday, and the game's not until this evening. And there was the big annual Marijuana Harvest Festival right on Library Mall.

And this is what the Socialist flooding of the street looked like.

P1180450

It's not as if anyone was gravitating toward the Democratic Party. People cut a wide swath around this table:

P1180457

That's the Socialist crowd in the background. A few feet away the mall was teeming:

P1180455

The Libertarians were there, hoping to divert the marijuana-oriented passers-by:

P1180471

It wasn't hard to see what they had to offer:

The Socialists run out of Toilet Paper. And there’s more rape in Venezuela than the US. And murder.

Now that pot is basically legal, the Libertarians can dissolve.

I stopped reading the alerts from the local Socialists.
I just text "whereUR?" and fire off a mortar round in that direction.

In a perfect world the libertarian tent, complete with billy-bong-thornton-uber-mega-dub, would be right next to the socialists, preferably with a strong and favorable wind in that direction.

Yes. They chillin now. Finally.

That picture of those people walking past the Dane County Dem table is the perfect image for the "WalkAway" movement that seems to be gaining momentum (and I think it will really pick up speed after today's win - best motivator there is). The Dems are getting their own "Tea Party" treatment.

Yesterday someone here mentioned seeing it on Facebook - I checked it out - 174K followers, testimonies from people who were reliable Dem voters who feel they have been left behind by the party and are going to vote Republican.

Hey, Madison Socialies!

The real rapes occurred at Occupy (Wall Street).

Because the suspect is not a Georgetown Prep alumnus or a Republican federal judge, however, feminists (and Inga & the Madison Socialist Alternative) will not care about this crime.

No, I won’t correct my spelling error.

You could probably weed out the crazies there. All of those butthurt anti-Kavanaugh people just need to, contra Sen. John Kennedy (R-LA), pick the bong up! And mellow the fuck out.

alan markus said...

This arrest was reported Sept. 27, the same day as the Senate Judiciary Committee hearing where Christine Ford Blasey testified, so we can understand why feminists (and Inga & the Madison Socialist Alternative) didn’t have time to notice it. Also, because Jacobi Bellazin probably isn’t a Republican, feminists (and Inga & the Madison Socialist Alternative) don’t care.

tcrosse said...

Do these Socialists believe that the Proletariat is the only true revolutionary class, or have the proles been supplanted by the Lumpenintelligentsia? Most of the campus socialists I've known have very little understanding of Marxism-Leninism. It's as if their "Socialism" were a pose.

If only they will keep it up until November 6. Then they can go home or wherever they hang out.

"If Kavanaugh is approved tomorrow it will only be the beginning of sustained mass movement that will come for more than the rapists and misogynists they put and hold in power."

Lie. Bill Clinton was a rapist with a lotta power, while his politically savvy wife enabled him. And these leftists supported both.

I have a cousin at that protest.

She has lived in Madison for 40 years and spends her time at various protests. She has a professional degree, but has not worked in over 35 years because of emotional disability. Taxpayers cover her living expenses.

Her loyal Democrat family in NW Illinois is embarrassed by her. They cut her off after their mother passed and she demanded to be the executor. She is suing them although they have provided financial support for her all these years.

She is the face of The Resistance.

If you are counting articles, don't waste a click on the above op ed, but basically she is mad at Susan Collins because she votes with Trump 79% of the time. The whole column is just a wail of pain.

tcrosse said...

Lumpenintelligentsia

A section of the intelligentsia regarded as making no useful contribution to society, or as lacking taste, culture, etc. Also more generally: the intelligentsia collectively, regarded as worthless or powerless.

Origin
1930s. From lumpen- + intelligentsia.

I voted for Trump cause Hillary was a POS and there was no real alternative. But it's been two years and Trump is doing surprisingly well. Thus I am now in his camp... and I was even given a red Trump MAGA hat just a month ago.... Tempting..

Lewis Wetzel said...

The ruling class is the class that rules; members of the ruling class tell other people what to do. They sit in judgement on the actions of others and the works of others.
There is not a socialist in the world who does not want to be in the ruling class. For most of them, they feel entitled by birth and education to be members of the ruling class.

buwaya said...

Benny Hill is suited to all times.
Just not some places.

buwaya said...

There is a book in Trumpit.
Either it shall be written by someone else (I am taking notes for my novel; there are exorcisms in it), or it will be one of "those", self published on Amazon. Now, some sell remarkably well. One was nominated for a Hugo a few years back.

steve uhr said...

It looks like Roberts will be the new swing vote on the Court. He will probably move somewhat to the left. I anticipate a lot of venum directed his way by commenters over the next few years.

William said...

Remember Cyrus Vance. He was the Manhattan DA who declined to pursue charges against Harvey Weinstein despite the fact that the police had Harvey on tape and the offense wasn't thirty six years old. . Harvey had contributed $10,000 to Vance's re-election. I don't know why Vance needed the money because he runs unopposed. Anyway, Vance didn't pursue charges and Harvey went on to work his magic with other girls at other places in other times.....I bring up Cyrus Vance because, so far as I know, he has never been confronted in restaurants or had demonstrators camped outside his office. There are many anti-Kavanaugh demonstrators in NYC, but they seem selective in their protests.......I don't think you gain support for your cause when you're this overtly biased.

William said...

Nobody in Hollywood should speak out against Kavanaugh. They're like Catholic prelates who preach sermons advocating a ban on pornographers. They've lost the moral standing to address such issues.

William said...

Ditto wcith news organizations, although I would like to hear Tom Brokaw's opinion on the Kavanaugh case. He had one credible accuser. There wasn't a cascade after she made the accusation. Some of the female staffers at NBC went bail for him. NBC has apparently let him keep his emeritus status as a broadcaster, but I haven't seen him commenting on the Kavanaugh case.

Mark said...

Judge Roberts was also called a nazi, woman hater and fascist.

“I think it’s occured to Democrats not waste our breaths and hold our fire until it counts. These protests are now just wasted energy, save it up.”

Coming from dozens o' comments per post Inga, that some funny stuff right there.

CWJ said...

steve Uhr,

Someone else noted that E. Kagan was bemoaning the loss of a swing vote and unpredictability on the court. Thus inadvertently confirming that she doesn't see herself in that role, or even unpredictable in her decisions. Funny how it's always a nominal Republican who has to be the swing vote.

Q said...

"You say you'll change the constitution
Well, you know
We all want to change your head

You ain't going to make it with anyone anyhow"

Big Mike said...

In Madison, I was under the impression that the Socialists are the ruling class.

Big Mike said...

@CWJ, perhaps Kagan is the one who needs to "evolve" in the direction of the center?

Big Mike said...

@Jupiter, make sure you have the permit before you get the holster!

If you have the hand strength, the Kahr is a good CC pistol. Very light, very narrow, very concealable.

steve uhr said...

CWJ - of the last 19 Justices, 15 have been appointed by republicans. Hence, one would expect most swing voters to be in that group.

CWJ said...

steve uhr,

In light of Kagan's inadvertant admissions, I think you know that it's matter of judicial philosophy, not playing the odds. But if you're comfortable with a spurious statistical argument, have at it.

Achilles said...

steve uhr said...
CWJ - of the last 19 Justices, 15 have been appointed by republicans. Hence, one would expect most swing voters to be in that group.

Well, that...

and democrats never nominate anyone who could remotely be considered a "swing" vote and only nominate pure ideologues who know how they are going to vote and are just looking for justification.

Just trying to cover up their ugly history, Democrats having been responsible for the Confederacy, the ensuing civil war in an attempt to preserve slavery, and subsequent creation of the Ku Klux Klan, lynchings, Jim Crow, separate but equal, standing in the school house door...

CWJ said...

Inga,

I take your point, but your describing it as "our" breath rather than "their" or "the protesters" breath laid you wide open to my characterization.

Regardless, it's still pretty funny.

Steven said...

What we need to do is open up some labor camps in Alaska, and have these socialists be whisked away to them after midnight knocks on their doors.

After all, it would only be giving them what they're demanding.

CWJ said...

Inga,

And coming on the tail end of weeks, yes weeks, of outrageous outrage, it's hilarious to suggest that NOW, of all times and not before, Democrats have learned to "hold their fire."

ccscientist said...

Down with capitalism? Can these idiots even define their terms? Do they realize that their hipster friends who own an art gallery are capitalists? They borrowed money from a bank to open their gallery. They hired employees. They reinvest the profits. They set their own prices and negotiate with suppliers. What else is it but that?

Bleach Drinkers Curing Coronavirus Together said...

Reading through the comments on here and how unhinged and crude and hostile and belligerent they are to Inga, one realizes exactly why they represent a minority opinion in America and the planet.

They do what power-hungry scoundrels so undeserving of power always do: They gang up. They gang rape. They threaten mass violence (Achilles does this regularly). And they give in to their justified fear that unless they keep anyone else from having power, they will be rightly removed from it.

This is why Republicans hate democracy. They can't stand it.

They know how unpopular they and their agenda are.

FIDO said...

As far as that socialist gathering...when you take out the significant others and besties who are going along 'because I want to sleep with Kelly and if I go, she might FINALLY change her mind about me', then the number of true believers dwindles even more.

Granted, this is a snapshot. Maybe they had a MASSIVE crowd later. However...to most people who did not hear Ford's incredibly persuasive husband, her tale was not particularly compelling.

Oh, I've had the permit for years. If you're going to own handguns at all, here in Pyongyang on the Willamette, you need a CC permit. They find BB gun under a magazine in your car and no CCP, they'll toss you in prison. It's a hassle to CC, though, and I never really felt the need. But I would not go anywhere East of Garfield Street wearing a MAGA hat without a gun.
