Unseen,

There laws against interfering with official proceedings as there should be, but the event in question was not a government proceeding, it was an unofficial proceeding not called for by statute no different from the same event held in a public place with the legislator standing on a soap box. It was a public forum.

Incidents like this don’t belong at any meeting, public or private. Maybe the holders of such meetings need to busted for maintaining a disorderly house or some such as that. Maybe the woman should have been busted for using an animal call out of hunting season.

Enco,

I like this thing in South Africa. Remember how Jew haters kept saying it is the government man? My ass got nothing against Jews. i just hate the government of Israel. I always knew that was BS. Any an all Jews are to blame according to the feckless haters who need them some scapegoats. It is a collective responsibility. Ya know who killed that old Jew, JC? Goddamn Jews did. Fuckers. All over the globe the lefty’s and Islamists/Muslims are attacking Jews and making it easier for the troglodytes to Islamise the west.

I keep reading and hearing that immediately after oct 7 and before any retaliation from Israel Jews were being shunned. Aint this cool from S. Africa? Arrest those White colonial settler apartheid mofo’s who are guilty of apartheid genocide and of being Jews! Does not matter if they are even Israelis. I just listened to a guy who lived through S. African apartheid. Even the Muslim/Arab actual apartheid states are not as bad as S. Africa was. Glad they make the moral calculus. Glad they are not being acted on by external ideas and are able to analyze the situation.

Jake,

South Africa has been on a downward spiral from the frying pan of Apartheid to the fire of Neo-Apartheid ever since Nelson and Winnie Mandela took over.

I would venture to guess that not one of those Jews had a hand in the old system, nor did they make Johannesburg the rape and carjacking capitol of the world.

And South Africa is the ‘S’ in the BRICS bunch. So far, no BRICS-heads can explain to me what’s so great about it. Basically, it’s anybody not-Western, not-Capitalist, not-free, not-even-trying.

I know the difference between an opinion and a fact and I’m still searching for a fact in there somewhere. Want to point it out for me? I’m seeing a “maybe” and a “should.”

How do we get the country back on track? Trump isn’t smart enough to know he’s being played, so he plays his role as figurehead while Musk calls most of the shots. And the shots he does call are likely handed to him by Elon in a “When I want your opinion, I’ll give it to you” fashion.

So, Musk is busily tearing our democracy apart and our spineless politicians (both parties) are too reliant on funding coming from millionaires, billionaires, and corporations to take our side and the courts have no enforcement power, because the Founding Fathers gave that in its entirety to the Executive Branch. They fear getting tough for fear their rulings will be ignored, making their weakness apparent for all to see.

We won’t win our country back by standing in line to speak in turn. The whole video is worth a listen but I’ve set it up to start where he gets to the point.

Unseen,

There are a milion better media and means of expression than screeching over others at a meeting or for that matter blocking other’s freedom of movement on a thoroughfare or using a petrol-made, petrol-shipped superglue to fasten yourself to things while screaming “Stop Oil Now!”

And lest we forget, the woman at the meeting could have got far worse:

Perhaps the shortest, but certainly one of the shortest, great speeches in American history. Mario Savio’s speech on the steps of Sproul Hall during the so-called “Free Speech Movement.”

Disruptive protests are an effective political tool going back in American history at least as far as the “Boston Tea Party,” and in the case of the protest in question, has resulted in uncovering the Sheriff’s apparent disability scam.

Good that this was one result, but others still have right to speak without interruption from a heckler’s veto.

Out of curiosity i wanted a comparison of tiny Israel against the rest of the muslim nations. In science, innovation and achievement.

LLM reported that based on latest data Israel has 140 scientists, technicians and engineers per 1000. Muslim nations average 9 per 1000. World average is 41. Muslim nations have two nobel prizes. Israel has 12. None of the prize winners in Israel is Muslim. One of the Muslims from Muslim nations describes himself as secular.

This is your brain on Muslim. See that fried egg? Remember that commercial?

Once again i commend the lefties for their role in preserving the death cult. Death to intellect. Death to freedom. Death to civil rights. Death to equality. Death to morality. But goddamn it to hell. Don’t say nothing bad about Islam! Go hog wild on Jews and Israel. Criticize the shit out of Christianity.

Row row row your boat gently down the stream….

Not on private property at a private function. One party had a right to eject her and that was the owner of the venue, but that didn’t happen.

I get that you’re a law and order person, but for you order is more important than law, because there was no legal basis for removing her.

An apt description of the segment of the American political sphere that blindly backs Israel no matter what they do.

Women’s bodies are moralized more than men’s, study finds.

Thank you for posting this.  I haven’t seen it anywhere else, and it’s enabled me to answer a number of long-standing questions in research on morality.  Namely, about moral purity, “harmless harms”, and “moral dumbfounding”.

Moral purity means observance of moral norms.  So, woke people can go big on purity.  So can nazis.  So can religious people.  That doesn’t make it a bad thing, but it can get very oppressive and tiresome, to the exclusion of values like compassion.

Harmless harms are where people feel that breaking norms is bad in itself, and they perceive this as harmful, but can’t say what is being harmed.  Well, if a norm represents “how things should be”, then breaking it means things will be “how they should not be”, and that’s a harm in itself, if you care about that norm.  So, people can rationalise it after the fact by saying things like gay marriage causes floods and storms.

Moral dumbfounding is where someone doesn’t know why something is wrong.  This is a fault in their knowledge of how norms come about.  It’s usually sexual and reproductive norms that people are mystified by, since fairness, reciprocity, conflict reduction, etc., are obviously connected to evolutionary fitness.  Sexual and reproductive norms have gone through a sacralisation process by the Abrahamic religions, so their roots have been lost, and consequently, people can’t give good reasons why something is wrong.  Examples are the conservative prohibitions on homosexuality and women’s freedom.  People who break these are seen as bad, but no-one can say exactly why.
