“TOO WHITE” IS A FUNNY WAY TO SPELL “DUMB AND CRAZY”: Extinction Rebellion: The Green Justice Warriors Accused of Being Too White.
THE LEFT IS AMONG THE MOST UNIMAGINATIVE GROUPS OF HUMANS TO HAVE EVER EXISTED. THIS EXPLAINS HOLLYWOOD AND THEIR STUPID REPETITIOUS PLAYBOOK: Sexual harassment charges against Gordon Sondland look like Kavanaugh-esque smear.
AND HATRED OF HUMANITY IS AT THE ROOT OF IT ALL: Hatred of Israel is the Symptom. Hatred of Western Society is the Disease..
THAT’S THE WEIRDEST WAY OF SPELLING “CROOKED” I’VE EVER SEEN. OR MAYBE CONNIVING? THAT WOULD EXPLAIN WHERE THE V CAME FROM, AND MAYBE THEY THOUGHT THE TWO NS WERE AN M AND… Media Hypes Fusion GPS Founders as Victims.
TOTALITARIANISM MAKES YOU STUPID: The “perfect Aryan poster baby” was actually Jewish.

WELL, THAT’S JUST BADTHINK THAT SHOULDN’T BE ALLOWED: President Trump ‘is doing more for African Americans than any other president has ever done,’ said a Jamaican immigrant.

BUT OF COURSE: Strippers allegedly used sex toy on Hunter Biden at NYC’s Hustler Club. “During one particularly wild night, workers suspected Biden — son of former Vice President Joe Biden, the frontrunner in the Democratic primary race to challenge President Donald Trump — was high, and he was warned that drugs weren’t allowed on the premises, sources said. That same night, a worker had to be sent out to purchase a dildo so the gals could use it on Hunter, sources said. It’s unclear if the club didn’t have a similar device on hand or if he insisted on a brand-new one fresh out of the package.”
UPDATE: From the comments: “You can call him Steely Dan.” Plus the suggestion that that’s too obscure a reference for this crowd. But is it, really?
OPEN THREAD: Enjoy.

BANG-UP JOB THERE, BRITISH SECURITY SERVICES: Report: London Attacker was Convicted Terrorist with Jihadist Ties. “The man who carried out the London Bridge terror attack has been identified as 28-year-old Usman Khan, Metropolitan Police confirm. He was jailed in 2012 as part of a plot to bomb the London Stock Exchange and build a terrorist training camp. He was also believed to have supported al-Muhijaroun, a militant jihadist network in the United Kingdom.” The police would have shown more interest if he had retweeted a “transphobic” poem.
But there was bravery on the scene:
More of that toxic masculinity I’m always being warned against, I guess.
OURS NEVER LAST LONG ENOUGH TO SPOIL: The clock is ticking on those Thanksgiving leftovers. Here’s how long before they go bad.
UNEXPECTEDLY: Ronan Farrow says Hillary Clinton cooled on him when he investigated #MeToo crimes. “It’s remarkable how quickly even people with a long relationship with you will turn if you threaten the centers of power or the sources of funding around them,” Farrow says earlier this week.
LUXURY BELIEFS AND LUXURY LIFESTYLES: You can’t afford my radical life.
AND THE ANSWER IS NONE. NONE MORE WOKE: “This Thanksgiving, It’s Time to Take On Your Conservative Relatives. Contrary to popular opinion, the holidays are not a time to ‘navigate’ your uncle’s bigoted MAGA jokes. They’re the time to confront him.” As Rod Dreher responded yesterday to above headline by the Nation’s Elie Mystal:
Wow. Somewhere in America, there are some Mystal family members who are pouring themselves extra wine to fortify themselves in the face of their yappy, rude, woke kinsman. Here’s part of what the Progressive Grinch Who Ruined Thanksgiving had to say:
We stand on the precipice of losing our American character to the forces of authoritarianism and bigotry. For many people, this holiday season will be the last face-to-face encounter with family members before the most consequential election of our lifetimes. And yet, many people are desperate to pass the potatoes without starting any uncomfortable conversations.
The holidays are when your resistance is needed. Some of you have the opportunity to talk to Trump voters and assorted conservatives this weekend. Some of you will have the opportunity to talk to people who live in an echo chamber of Fox News commentary and Russian troll farms. To waste that opportunity because of your own hang-ups and Mommy or Daddy issues is criminal.
Criminal! I guarantee you that anybody who took Mystal’s advice only confirmed their Trumpist or Trump-leaning relatives in their decision to back Orange Man.
And if confronting grandpa doesn’t work, you can use him as a prop to, as the kids say these days, “own the cons on Twitter,” as Daily Show producer Brandon Stefanowitz did yesterday:
This is an interesting balancing act for Stefanowitz. He believes in the apocalyptic vision of Greta Thunberg’s handlers enough to humiliate his grandfather on the Internet, but not enough to quit the massive combined carbon footprint of Viacom, Twitter, and Apple, or whatever he used to photograph grandpa and upload it to the Internet. It’s both a nice in-kind contribution to the Trump 2020 campaign, and a reminder that Grandpa Stefanowitz isn’t the hypocrite in his grandson’s personal psychodrama.
Or as Glenn writes today at Jewish World Review, “All the Democrats had to do was not be crazy, and they couldn’t even do that. They started out after the last election demanding that Donald Trump not be ‘normalized’ as president — and then proceeded to act as abnormally as possible. Weirdly, this strategy seems to be backfiring.”
UPDATE: After a massive ratio on the above tweet, Stefanowitz has protected his account.
