Political Plague

[PoliticalChic]

11. The Plague was the reason the Muslims were able to conquer the Eastern Roman Empire.....


"The largest Islamic army ever to invade European territory—which is saying much considering that countless invasions preceded it since the eighth century—came and surrounded Vienna, then the heart of the Holy Roman Empire and longtime nemesis of Islam, on July 15, 1683.

...sources describe this Mustafa as “fanatically anti-Christian.” After capturing a Polish town in 1674 he ordered all the Christian prisoners to be skinned alive and their stuffed hides sent as trophies to Ottoman Sultan Muhammad IV.

Now, over a thousand years later, the same ultimatum of submission to Islam or death had reached the heart of Europe. "On the next day, Mustafa unleashed all hell against the city’s walls; and for two months, the holed-up and vastly outnumbered Viennese suffered plague, dysentery, starvation, and many casualties—including women and children—in the name of jihad."
Eastern Europe’s ‘Subconscious Fear’ of Islam: The Siege of Vienna - Raymond Ibrahim





The biological plague caused the death of the Roman Empire. The same due to the political totalitarian plague hangs over civilization’s empire.

America, all of Western Civilization, is divided by the Leftist plague, and is weakened to the point where it is vulnerable to the hordes of 7th century barbarians, the terrorists.

But....just look at the Democrat's actions since Trump killed the terrorist responsible for 600 American's lives.

They want America to end.

You are the worst of the plagues! Promoting unabashedly republican propaganda.

(sigh....)
If only government school could at least prepare the sheep to posit some idea beyond "I hate you!! I hate you!!!"....then we might just see some interesting posts from these morons....

....I I might have some fun beyond simply rolling my eyes when they post this vapid sort of post.



You dunce....you should consider me the Cinderella Good Witch.....baptizing you with knowledge, and education.





Instead, you inadvertently prove all of my posts by being unable to refute any of it.


Wise up, fool.

I do not try to refute what is obviously false on it's surface. I have knowledge far beyond your abilities. All you post is conservative propaganda and I will not let you get away with it by not calling you out!

"I do not try to refute what is obviously false on it's surface."

Even a tree stump knows you're lying.

No one can even guess why you'd come back to be humiliated again....but I like doing it.


Here are the facts:



1.There is the plague, the black death, that decimated millions due to a tiny little bacterium.

“At first, the bacteria that became the plague lived quietly in the mammalian gut, and known as Yersinia pseudotuberculosis. Small and innocuous, it could survive in a host causing little more than a stomachache.”


2. In his novel, “Mission Critical,” Mark Greaney has the villain prepare to flood the UK with the plague, and she says….

“As you know, with primary infection, the patient’s course becomes irreversible approximately eight hours after infection if not given a large dose of antibiotics….Secondary pneumonic plague results from metastatic spreading by the primary population.

…if we successfully mask our attack so that the primaries remain unaware they’ve been exposed to the bacteria, allowing them to return to their offices…it will delay treatment for those who pick it up secondarily. If we manage this, we can expect roughly forty to sixty percent mortality…”





3. But the biological plague isn’t the only sort that starts small, barely noticeable at first. Western Civilization is under attack yet again, by a plague. A political plague.

“The radicals of the sixties did not remain within the universities…They realized that the apocalypse never materialized. “…they were dropping off into environmentalism and consumerism and fatalism…I watched many of my old comrades apply to graduate school in universities they had failed to burn down, so they could get advanced degrees and spread the ideas that had been discredited in the streets under an academic cover.”
Collier and Horowitz, “Destructive Generation: Second Thoughts About The Sixties,” p. 294-295.


4. Nor is it the only plague that metastasizes….

“[The radicals] did not go away or change their minds; the New Left shattered into a multitude of single-issue groups. We now have, to name a few, radical feminists, black extremists, animal rights groups, radical environmentalists, activist homosexual organizations, multiculturalists, organizations such as People for the American Way, the American Civil Liberties Union, the National Abortion Rights Action League (NARAL), the National Organization for Women (NOW), and Planned Parenthood.”
Robert H. Bork, “Slouching Toward Gomorrah,” p. 53



5. "Teachers unions pushing leftwing environmentalism in the classroom
In a piece titled “Climate Change in the Classroom,” the AFT says we face challenges “from attacks on democracy to a warming planet.” And this has “moved the role of the English teacher to center stage.”

As English teachers, we have the ability and responsibility to excite, inspire, and empower students to recognize this potential and become involved in the issue of our age, climate change and environmental justice.”

The article from the AFT goes on to outline how teachers can bring leftwing environmentalism propaganda into the classroom: “Many states have adopted the Common Core State Standards (CCSS) for English language arts,” which no longer dictate content that teachers must provide. Because there is no specific reading requirements, teachers can decide classroom content and “climate change can provide this kind of content.”

...a series of pieces that attempts to push the left’s version of environmentalism in the classrooms."

2. In his novel, “Mission Critical,” Mark Greaney has the villain prepare to flood the UK with the plague, and she says….

Thanx for the book recommendation -- I love epidemic fiction, and hadn't heard of that one. I put a sample on my Kindle app.

You know what you know and know it's correct --- but it's only true for you, that's the thing that's important. To tell people what's what doesn't work --- because everyone's what's what is unique to the individual. I believe that your manifesto is all true for you; it just isn't likely to be true for anyone else. That's why we call it "opinion."

"You know what you know and know it's correct --- but it's only true for you,"

Nay, nay.....it's true for you, too.....as you verified when I gave you a chance to point out what you found untrue.


But....I am magnanimous....here's another chance:

Anything herein that isn't 100% true, correct and accurate?



6. Which is more deadly, the Black Plague, or the Leftist Political Plague?

“The Black Death is estimated to have killed 30% to 60% of Europe's population. In total, the plague may have reduced the world population from an estimated 475 million to 350–375 million in the 14th century. It took 200 years for the world population to recover to its previous level.”
Black Death - Wikipedia
https://en.wikipedia.org › wiki › Black_Death



And then, there is Marx and Engel’s contribution to the death toll

“100 Years of Communism—and 100 Million Dead
The Bolshevik plague that began in Russia was the greatest catastrophe in human history.

If we add to this list the deaths caused by communist regimes that the Soviet Union created and supported—including those in Eastern Europe, China, Cuba, North Korea, Vietnam and Cambodia—the total number of victims is closer to 100 million. That makes communism the greatest catastrophe in human history.”

Think you know who the ‘winner’ is?

Not yet….





Just to save you time.....I am never wrong.

Well, then.....seems bizarre that you are unable to point to anything I've posted that isn't the case.

Perhaps you should think before you post....then you wouldn't have to retract.

Just as the villain in the novel infects her victims with plague, Liberals/Democrats very much the same......



12. In his novel, “Mission Critical,” Mark Greaney has the villain prepare to flood the UK with the plague, and she says….

“As you know, with primary infection, the patient’s course becomes irreversible approximately eight hours after infection…”

Perhaps not bracketed by only 8 hours…but this is what they teach in elementary school:






“….becomes irreversible approximately eight hours after infection if not given a large dose of antibiotics….”

Here are the ‘antibiotics’ necessary:

Not 100% true --- for you? I don't know; are you in doubt about any of these points?
Lots of times people assert things strongly just to persuade themselves it must be true.

I don't believe you are actually female: this is male arrogance; we don't see so much of this sort of thing in women.

A young woman having an arrogance fit is sort of interesting for a few minutes ---

But a man having an arrogance fit is just same old, same old. Okay, now I'm bored.

13. Environmentalism, a form of the plague, is a re-worded version of the communist ending of private property. What is poignant…and ironic…..environmentalists refer to human beings as viruses….
Environmentalists believe that human beings are a plague, a virus, a cancer.....



Environmentalists have little concern for human beings. The more that 'disappear,' the better they like it.

"David Attenborough - Humans are plague on Earth
Humans are a plague on the Earth that need to be controlled by limiting population growth, according to Sir David Attenborough."
David Attenborough - Humans are plague on Earth - Telegraph
"BBC Legend David Attenborough Labels People a 'Plague'
National TV treasure David Attenborough has turned prophet of doom by calling humanity "a plague." He warned in the latest issue of The Radio Times that mother nature shall unleash catasphrophic disasters unless the human race changed its behaviour to slow down population growth.
"We are a plague on the earth," warned the presenter of BBC documentary series such as Africa.

"It's coming home to roost in the next 50 years or so. It's not just climate change, its sheer space, places to grow food for this enormous horde."Either we limit our population growth or the natural world will do it for us and the natural world is doing it for us right now," said Attenborough."

A warning: Mother Earth Gaia will get you!




None of the totalitarian forms of political plague have the slightest concern for human life: not communism (gulags), not Nazism (concentration camps), not Liberalism (abortion), not Progressivism (eugenics), not socialism (theft), not fascism . The all follow Trotsky: "We must rid ourselves once and for all of the Quaker-Papist babble about the sanctity of human life."

But the biological plague isn’t the only sort that starts small, barely noticeable at first. Western Civilization is under attack yet again, by a plague. A political plague.

Western "civilization" is built on an economic malignancy:

Capitalism Has A Metaphor — It’s A Cancer

"My mother died of cancer five years ago.

"While most of the cells in her body grew and reproduced at a rate that merely kept her alive, there were a few rogue cells that mutated and changed — reprogramming themselves as greedy individuals who cared about nothing except rapid growth and exploitation of the body’s natural reserves.

"As these cancerous cells spread throughout her body, they replaced the healthy functioning of the immune system with their own logic.

"And this led to her eventual death."

Let's check.


1. Modern history presents us with two divergent models of economic arrangement: socialism, and capitalism. One of these appears preoccupied with the common good, and social betterment, the other with profits and production.


2. In its modern beginnings, socialism was optimistic and well intentioned, without the overlay of its contemporary varieties that tend to bemoan prosperity, romanticize poverty, and promote a view that place individual rights are a secondary concern. This is to say that the earliest socialists sought the fullest possible flourishing of humanity, “the common good.”


3. A half-century before Karl Marx published the Communist Manifesto, there was Gracchus Babeuf’s Plebeian Manifesto, which was later renamed the Manifesto of the Equals. Babeuf’s early (1796) work has been described as socialist, anarchist, and communist, and has had an enormous impact. He wrote: “The French Revolution was nothing but a precursor of another revolution, on which will be bigger, more solemn, and which will be the last…We reach for something more sublime and more just: the common good or the community of goods! Nor more individual property in land: the land belongs to no one. We demand, we want, the common enjoyment of the fruits of the land: the fruits belong to all.” Here, then, are the major themes of socialist theory. It takes very little interpolation to find that opponents profit at the expense of the environment, and conditions of inequality in society.


4. For Babeuf, socialism would distribute prosperity across the entire population, as it would “[have] us eat four good meals a day, [dress} us most elegantly, and also [provide] those of us who are fathers of families with charming houses worth a thousand louis each.”


5. Oscar Wilde: “Under socialism…there will be no people living in fetid dens and fetid rags, and bringing up unhealthy, hunger pinched children in the midst of impossible and absolutely repulsive surroundings…Each member of society will share in the general prosperity and happiness of the society…”


6. Marxism rested on the assumption that the condition of the working classes would grow ever worse under capitalism, that there would be but two classes: one small and rich, the other vast and increasingly impoverished, and revolution would be the anodyne that would result in the “common good.”
But by the early 20th century, it was clear that this assumption was completely wrong! Under capitalism, the standard of living of all was improving: prices falling, incomes rising, health and sanitation improving, lengthening of life spans, diets becoming more varied, the new jobs created in industry paid more than most could make in agriculture, housing improved, and middle class industrialists and business owners displaced nobility and gentry as heroes.


7. These economic advances continued throughout the period of the rise of socialist ideology. The poor didn’t get poorer because the rich were getting richer (a familiar socialist refrain even today) as the socialists had predicted. Instead, the underlying reality was that capitalism had created the first societies in history in which living standards were rising in all sectors of society.

Another name for socialism is ....theft.

It is the doctrine of the jealous, the lazy, the corrupt.

Do you live via socialism....with your hand in your neighbor's pocket?



“The results were inescapable: nearly everywhere on the planet men and women lived longer, ate better, enjoyed more leisure, and had access to resources and delights that previously had been reserved for the very rich and powerful, or more commonly, had been utterly unknown.” Joel Mokyr, “A Culture of Growth: Origins of the Modern Economy”

Or are you simply a tiny twerp, and that amplification makes you feel better.


One can only hope that you live in a socialist society and reap the 'benefits' thereof....

Name it.....your socialist paradise.

Or are you simply a fraud, benefiting from our capitalist culture?
