Business is Increasingly Rejecting the Pronoun Cult

I don’t know about you, but I am celebrating today’s news from CNBC stating, “Resumes including 'they/them' pronouns are more likely to be overlooked”. Frankly, it is unsurprising that companies are less than willing to hire purple-haired, narcissistic, weirdos to be the face of their organizations.

Here's How to Crush the Proletariat

August 4, 2023

The quote, "The way to crush the bourgeoisie is to grind them between the millstones of taxation and inflation" encapsulates Vladimir Lenin’s revolutionary ideology and strategy to dismantle the so-called “capitalist class”. Lenin believed that the bourgeoisie, the cake eaters, exploited and oppressed the working class. Marxists believe there are only two classes and that nobody really moves up or down without massive, violent, revolutions. However, in the West people can get rich through hard work and they do it all the time. We also have the ability to run for office.

The Violent "Inclusivity" of Socialism and Equity

The Violent "Inclusivity" of Socialism and Equity

Socialism is the most violent cult the world has ever seen. Nobody, and I truly mean nobody, can come anywhere near the death toll of socialists in the 20th century. One hundred million is an underestimate that often does not include Africa, where most countries attempted socialism, resulting in the mass starvation and murder of tens of millions more. The supporters of this ideology continue to push a narrative that everyone can be part of the same group, and that everyone can achieve the same levels of equity, but this is never the case.
