The Woke Tower of Babel: The Case of Jimmy’s Sprinkles

The curious Biblical story of the Tower of Babel may provide a metaphor for Wokedom’s aberrant use of ideas and words. The woke assault on cultural land marks and institutions is underway.

The Media as seen from 1948

Richard Weavers was an academic from The University of Chicago and in 1948 wrote a book called Ideas have Consequences. A book that should sit alongside Orwell's 1984.

I set an extended quote by Weavers which speaks to our modern media as well:


US Supreme Court will not take up the Appeal from Pennsylvania

Is it over for the rule of law in the USA? Does the Constitutional Republic start ending here?

The procedural laches (timeliness) argument has prevailed rather than the substantive merits argument.

It means the appellants have no remedy. They are boxed in. They could not bring the case beforehand because PA law requires locus standi to be based on harm actually suffered. The harm did not occur until on and after the election.

Our English form of law, which the US inherited, struggled over centuries to free itself from dogmas of the procedural form so as to do substantive justice.

But the constitutional breaches and the fundamental invalidity- e.g. the PA Supreme Court's legislating when only the PA legislature had the plenary power to do so in election matters- remain unresolved. Montesquieu's checks and balances seemingly and prima facie have given way.

The nine wise men and women in Black Robes may have unwittingly undermined the institution of the Court as a Constitutional Supreme Court, which may well under a Biden Presidency be packed and become a tool and dependent wing of the executive government.


CNN's War on free speech: All differing speech is "disinformation"

CNN continue its war on free speech galvanised by a possible Biden White House.

Professor Turley's Blog has this post:

Like many anti-free speech advocates, Darcy simply labels those with opposing views as spreading “disinformation” and demands that they be labelled or barred from social media. In a recent newsletter, Darcy calls for every tweet by Trump to be labelled as disinformation while asking “and why stop there?” Precisely. Once you cross the Rubicon of speech regulation, there is little reason or inclination to stop.


The "Free fall" of the Rule of Law: The American Declension to Fascism

The late literary critic Harold Bloom in an interview said that US Democracy was dying and that the US was falling to being ruled by Plutocrats [big tech and big corporations]; Oligarchs and Theocrats. As friends of democracy and liberty, these three are not. The present election t sees all three at play. MSM in the USA seems to think it is an activist part of the state's functioning apparatus.


"Get rid of the lawyers. No lawyers, no cases, no Trump."

Over the weekend:

1. Biden supporters attacked and harassed Trump supporters in Washington DC;

2. Obama, as reported on Breitbart, announced that Trump was like a Dictator- which is rich coming from a man who weaponised departments of state for political reasons; whose excessive use Executives Orders- the famous "I have a pen and phone" is well-known and whose second term denigrated Americans who did not think like him and brought into play divisive identity politics.

Ben Shapiro today has a clip from Hillary Clinton saying the Trump Presidency has been illegitimate because she had the 2016 election stolen from her. That is a woeful incorrect statement given Mrs Clinton was a lawyer. One popular NZ Blog site- and its writer should know better- has repeated the same ignorant and incorrect opinion.

Trump –Biden Debate- A paradigm shift.

The debate has been described as chaos, unruly, of no value and of frightening a CNN analyst. It was not what a debate should be said Rachel Maddow of MSNBC of dispassionately looking at policy and informing the electorate and I surmise the uncommitted, the non-voters, the swing voters and independents who sit in a 20% twilight zone. Sir Robert Jones also came out against Trump as uncouth, an ignoramus and a liar. < Biden was also short on truth.
