MSNBC is Straight Up a Cult

As one of the 99.9% of Americans who never or rarely ever watch MSNBC, my viewing habits were unaffected by the reports of the hissy fits triggered by the hiring and then firing of a failed RNC chairwoman. The pull of bias at MSNBC has so completely collapsed into itself like a cognitive black hole that there is not even room for a token punching bag RINO on staff. 

At his peak, Rush Limbaugh’s audience was 20-40 times larger than any show on MSNBC. Limbaugh and Fox News provided content and a viewpoint that was not available in the media echo chambers online, in print, or on the air. The appeal was because it offered a substantive challenge to the prevailing intellectually lazy, leftish orthodoxy.

In stark contrast, MSNBC is itself a circling of the wagons against any challenge to that orthodoxy, presenting highly distilled versions of The Narrative often using some deeply pathetic presenters and “experts”. Limbaugh’s audience was forced to listen to the other side from many outlets all day and welcomed support for the resistance he led, glad that a debate was undertaken and appreciative of the sheer novelty of common-sense pushback. MSNBC literally wants to prevent such debate.

The use of caricature, fear, an aversion to disobedient facts, and a strange common smugness create a well-defined but small and self-limited audience. It is a cult that thinks it is speaking to the nation. The weird thing is that a show in which articulate conservatives and non-zombie liberals conducted respectful, focused debates with informative interviews of real experts could probably double or triple MSNBC’s net audience in the evening slots; even allowing for the departure of most of their bubble-dwelling regulars, who would be triggered, offended and horrified. But there is a greater probability of LGBTQ+ concerns being debated on Saudi or Iranian news channels than such an event happening on MSNBC.

Scientists Report Society Endangered by New Strain of Fact-Resistant Humans

JTP Hogsdon and His Non Diverse USWCM Social Media Research Team

A Middle Finger News Service Exclusive:

Scientists have discovered a powerful new strain of fact-resistant humans who are threatening the ability of Earth to sustain life, a sobering new study reports. The appearance of the phenomenon is being called "Macrocephalic Sesquipedalian Neuroleptic Brain Cataplexy" or MSNBC for short - but not to be confused with typical destructive Liberal Brain Shrivel. 

The research, conducted  Dr. JTP Hogsdon  and his team at the University of Southern West Central Minnesota (Go Crimson Frogs!), identifies a virulent strain of humans who are virtually immune to any form of verifiable knowledge, leaving scientists at a loss as to how to combat them. More worryingly, Hogsdon told us, as facts have multiplied, their defenses against those facts have only grown more powerful.  The normal functions of human consciousness have been completely nullified by this MSNBC.

"What we find most puzzling are the strain of fact-resistant humans that seem to deny that aiming a gun at a law enforcement officer is not going to end well, strapping a bomb to themselves does not advance the religion of peace, and most puzzling to us in our findings, why people continue to vote Democrat?" 

While scientists have no clear understanding of the mechanisms that prevent the fact-resistant humans from absorbing data, they theorize that the strain may have developed the ability to intercept and discard information en route from the auditory nerve to the brain. 

While reaffirming the gloomy assessments of the study, Dr. Hogsdon held out hope that the threat of fact-resistant humans could be mitigated in the future. “Our research is very preliminary, but it's possible that they will become more receptive to facts once they are in an environment without food, water, or oxygen,” he said.

The Lessons of History Evidently Mean Nothing.........

A Good Monday Morning

Serpent Head Speaks: The State of the Dem Party - Seeing your Grandma Naked - Too many Preachy Females.

Democratic strategist James Carville spoke to the New York Times of his overall disgust and disapproval of the current state of the Democratic Party. With his typical Cajun demeanor, Serpent Head took a swing at Biden poll numbers saying looking at them was equivalent to "walking in on your grandma naked." 

Despite his scathing take, Carville did add, "I actually like Biden. He's a tenacious guy that's had a real life."

Yeah, not many guys have actually sold their own driveway.

Despite his overall approval of Biden, Carville said that he suspected there to be too many "preachy females" in the party, who are turning-off black male voters, the mouth breathers of 'The Squad,'who are just to the left of the marxist wing of the party.  He also complained that "woke stuff is killing us' and that the left was talking in a language that Americans did not understand".

Carville recently made the news after referring to Marjorie Taylor Greene who heckled Biden's SOTU speech as 'white trash'. "I tell people I have the equivalent of a Ph.D. in white trashology, and you saw real white trash on display." "And let me say something about ... Marjorie Taylor Greene. She really needs a fashion consultant. Can I recommend George Santos?"🤣

Late Night Musings From The Bathtub

I have reached the age where everything I think happen 2-3 years ago really happen in 2004.

Imagine Bob Ross and Gordon Ramsey had swapped professions.....

"The chicken is a little undercooked, but that's okay.We'll cook it a little more, it will be our secret little accident...."

"Does this fucking tree look happy to you?! DOES IT?!" 

Do rich people still ride around eating mustard in the back seat of their cars?

Buying a frozen pizza is such a lie. Oh I'll save this for when I don't feel like cooking.

Day one. I don't feel like cooking.

Every time I see a period piece set in old England I imagine the british having sex like "mmmm yes, splendid indeed...carry on...oh good heavens... I'm arriving!"

And I love how in Greek mythology they had legendary dudes with names like Zeus, Ares, Apollo, Hercules and Theseus, then they threw in some guy named Jason for some reason. 

I swear some people go to Starbucks just to say random words:

Lemme get a grande iced mocha no foam, quad soy hexacon vortex hypothesis with steamed ice.

I love joining in on class action lawsuits I get emails about. Hell yeah I've been wronged. Justice needs to be served! A surprise check for $14.00 in 6 years will make things right!

I meet so many people these days that could be anything they wanted to be, but an asshole seems a strange choice.

I hate dealing with fresh garlic. Each little clove with it's own fucking paperwork.

Nothing drives me into absolute rage more than spending 30 minutes in a phone queue waiting to perform a task that cannot be completed on the website while a voice reminds me every 30 seconds that the website is convenient and fun.

I read that in the UK police found 44 diamonds up a man's anus during a routine traffic stop. " Uuh.. this guy looks suspicious. Let's look up his ass..."

I also read during my thirst for knowledge today that "female penguins exchange sex for nice rocks." So if you're having a hard day, remember that hooker penguins exist.

I have zero regrets naming my roomba "floor slut".

Geaux Tigahs! 

Truism #528

"The government consists of a gang of men exactly like you and me. They have, taking one with another, no special talent for the business of government; they have only a talent for getting and holding office. Their principal device to that end is to search out groups who pant and pine for something they can’t get and to promise to give it to them. Nine times out of ten that promise is worth nothing. The tenth time is made good by looting A to satisfy B. In other words, government is a broker in pillage, and every election is sort of an advance auction sale of stolen goods.”  

- H.L. Mencken

Your Sunday Soothingness

Just for you, a bit of Sunday Soothingness. Another choice morsel drawn from your Beloved Blog Editrix's personal digs, I give you a track from one of his generation most underappreciated composers, who, along with a few other like minds, heavily influenced the sound of the early 70's.

From 'Stephen Stills' 1991 acoustic album 'Stills Alone', here is what was to become a college underground radio station classic - 'Treetop Flyer'.

Panic Time. You Can Hear It In Their Voices

You may want to sit down for this, but apparently, normal people do not share the opinions of wine-sipping elites who never have to worry about their grocery bill or how they are going to pay their mortgage. The newest poll numbers since Biden's triumphant State of the Union speech last week spells panic time for Democrats.

Wait, you mean shouting uncontrollably and mocking voter concerns wasn’t actually the best speech in presidential history? It's not just that Biden didn't get a bump, though. Joe has now hit an all-time low in approval rating. 

 

By the numbers, most Americans do not "like" DJT, but that doesn't matter when they care far more about how much money is in their bank account and whether the border crisis is going to continue to spill over into their communities. Whatever flaws voters see in Trump, they see more flaws in a senile lying Biden and his disastrous policy decisions.

It's flashing lights code red time for Democrats who were hoping to just scream incessantly about January 6th loud enough to coast to re-election.

Instead they'll be spending a lot of time scraping shit off their snickers.....

Nasty Gaslighting Bigots They Are.

We are nurturing a sub-culture with no connection whatsoever to anything resembling decency, decorum, or even a modicum of intelligence. In five thousand years of human evolution, we've finally come full circle, with low-brow (media-promoted) troglodytes, once again howling at a (digital) moon.

Watching Biden cultists twist themselves into rhetorical knots, trying to make undeniable facts, that we can all witness with our own eyes and ears, go away. They just redefine the words to what ever they want. That is the dismal future of this formerly great Republic under the current Totalitarian Dictatorship. To them, any act, no matter how disgusting, reprehensible or immoral, is justified if it helps you achieve political power.

Your Sunday Soothingness

Just for you, a bit of warm groovy Sunday Soothingness. Another choice morsel drawn from your Beloved Blog Editrix's personal digs, I give you a track from Brian Auger's Oblivion Express titled 'Compared To What' from his 1973 album 'Closer to It!'.  It's one of my favorite records from this genre and has special significance to me, but I will not confess now or ever that it's because it happened to be permeating the atmosphere in beautiful 2 channel stereo the first time I ever got high.  

Enjoy Your Sunday Evening.

Your Official SOTU Drinking Game Card for Tonight's Presidential Manure Spread

Yes patriots, it's that time again. The stage is set for the nation's roundly disapproved of and incompetent leader to address congress and the nation in the unnecessary made-for-TV annual manure spread known to us all as the State Of The Union message. 

And as we have come to expect from *46, one can again look forward to more lying than a teenage boy with his pants around his ankles trying to explain to a Deputy why the Sheriff's daughter is in the back seat of his car naked from the waist up.

And like most of *46's speeches, I would expect an Adderall fueled mind-numbing exercise in babbling, self-praise and lofty unworkable leftist ideals, and a economic picture embellished with a rosy glow of unreal accomplishments.  

But I doubt the speech will be as entertained as in past years. With the luster and entertainment value of the event having fallen off without the distraction from the droning speech of watching Nan Pelosi fidget around in the Speaker's chair, going from grinning like a mental patient for no apparent reason, to getting that pained look on her face like she's passing a kidney stone and wishing she could get up and have a double shot of gin and a Marlboro.

But we will still have that famous camera shot to look forward to of of the entire house chamber as the network media political analysts speak of the historic setting while Joe, grinning like a baby loading his diaper, scans the room for an ice cream machine and any prepubescent girls in attendance.  

But fear not. SOTU Bullshit Bingo enthusiast are sure to be pleased by this Official STATE OF THE UNION DRINKING GAME CARD (a retread from 2022 but still relevant) compliments of our good friend  Curmudgeon @PoliticalClownP.

What Does This Guy Eat Every Morning That Makes Him So Angry and Delusional?

As Meat Puppet Mika looks on adoringly, Squinty Joe, known for his scripted rants he stays up nights writing because we all know he's not sharp enough to 'Off the Cuff It', has become a Biden confidante, frequent phone buddy and the regime's morning kickoff for the network's daily cavalcade of hate and propaganda. During his spiel today, Squinty Joe bragged that he has spent "hours" chatting with Biden, and came away so impressed. And if you're not impressed too, he said F-You.

Scientists Suggest Prehistoric Women Were Better At Hunting Than Men

Scientists are now suggesting that prehistoric women were superior hunters to men, but not due to physical prowess or strategic skills. According to the researchers, it all comes down to one simple factor: their incessant talking.

"We've long speculated about the hunting dynamics and gender roles of our ancient ancestors," explained Dr. Burt Hudson, lead researcher on the study. "But our findings indicate that prehistoric women were so adept at endless small-talk that animals, overwhelmed by the constant chatter, simply dropped dead out of sheer exhaustion." -  Continue Reading

Today in Leftist Totalitarian Democracy

Democracy Dies in Darkness. With a Pillow. Over the Face. The one upside to all of the projection that the Dems do these days is that we know what their plans are. That's especially true when it comes to all of their caterwauling about DJT and anybody who votes for him being a "threat to Democracy." It's one of the main talking points of the stump speech that DOCTOR Mama Jill Biden is giving, as part of the updated Basement Strategy.

The thoroughly unhinged Attorney General of the United States has been working out the daddy issues he has with Trump by using the Dems' mentally unbalanced J6 fetish as an excuse to go after Trump supporters almost since the moment he was sworn in.

"At 7:00 local time Friday morning, Blaze reporter Steve Baker turned himself in to the Dallas field office of the Federal Bureau of Investigation for arraignment. He then faced a federal magistrate. According to the Blaze, Baker received instructions to come to the office wearing shorts and flip-flops to make it easier for agents to place him in an orange jumpsuit, cuffs, and leg shackles. What did Baker do to find himself under arrest? Ostensibly, he went into the Capitol building on January 6. 

He was there not as a rioter but as a member of the press. Around 60 other journalists were there with him because, as a reporter, you go where the story is, and the story was inside the Capitol. Baker did not destroy anything, and he did not steal anything. He did not chant, sing, or make a speech. He did what reporters are supposed to do. He recorded the facts, and there is video evidence to back this up."

The other reporters from various news outlets haven't been charged. Democrats always think that Republicans will sink to their level if given the opportunity. They don't grasp that everyone else in the world isn't a scumbag. Trump may have some rough edges, but he's not going full Soviet on them like Biden and Garland have with him.

NO WAIT! There's More.......

Shut Up About Censorship While We Censor You! Ricky Maddow, brutal kingpin and top cable news lesbian, had Barbara McQuade, University of Michigan Law professor by day and MSNBC legal analyst by night, on for a censorship-cheerleading fiesta, which went exactly how one might expect such a show to go in the era of untreated TDS and Russiagate mania/Red Scare 2.0 that makes McCarthy look like a Russophile himself.

 Here's what McQuade had to say regarding the alleged threat of “disinformation” to Democracy™ in a segment titled “How Disinformation Erodes Respect For the Rule of Law” (the fact that she uttered this tripe on one of the largest purveyors of misinformation in the world notwithstanding): 

"Rachel, I think we’re more susceptible to [disinformation] than other countries, and that’s because some of our greatest strengths can also be our Achilles Heel. So, for example, our deep commitment to free speech in our First Amendment. It is a cherished right. It’s an important right in democracy, and nobody wants to get rid of it, but it makes us vulnerable to claims [that] anything we want to do related to speech is censorship… I think any time someone tries to do anything that might limit free speech, people claim censorship."

Amazing. 

 The cognitive dissonance is strong in this one, which is to be expected on a network where cognitive dissonance is a job requirement. To paraphrase: “we respect free speech, but only insofar as it’s speech we don’t want to censor. We’re heavily in favor of censorship, but whenever domestic terrorists accurately accuse us of censorship they’re doing ‘disinformation,’ which is a danger to Democracy™ because censorship is critical to maintaining the protections enshrined in the Constitution against censorship.”

A Good Monday Morning
