1984 in de Blasio’s New York City

1984 - Big BrotherAnd just how prescient was George Orwell?

“It’s a beautiful thing, the destruction of words.”

“The choice for mankind lies between freedom and happiness and for the great bulk of mankind, happiness is better.”

“Orthodoxy means not thinking–not needing to think. Orthodoxy is unconsciousness.”

“We do not merely destroy our enemies; we change them.”
George Orwell, 1984

New York businesses face hefty penalties for ‘misgendering’ customers

by Branford Richardson

Greeting customers as “Mr.” or “Mrs.” — or even not using the pronoun “ze” or “zir” — could prove costly for New York City businesses under rules drafted by Mayor Bill de Blasio’s bureaucrats.

But wait.

STOP THE PRESSES 2This is where I ask quite bluntly: what the fuck is a ze or a zir?

Here’s the problem with Leftists.  Force.  Conscription.  Pushing.  Leftists are not satisfied with allowing people to make their own decisions or to leave people alone.  They must, instead, tear down in order to build back up a system that only they can see and understand.  You, as a non-Leftist, do not have the mental capacity to understand their concepts and, as the menial Groundling, Prole or Serf that you are, you must be forced to comply.  Dissent cannot be tolerated.  Differing viewpoints cannot exist.  You have not the capability to perceive their higher-level thinking patterns and, because of this, there is no other option save that of duress, mandatory compulsion, intimidation and, ultimately, the law.  Further: there must be pain.  You must be punished for transgressions.

LEFTIST WORD POLICEPunished by the Leftist Word Police.

The Gotham mayor’s Commission on Human Rights says entities that fail to address customers by their preferred gender pronouns and titles are in violation of the law and could be subject to penalties of up to $250,000.

Correct.  The “wrong words” escaping your lips can subject your business, in New York City, courtesy of and endorsed and pushed by Mayor Bill de Blasio, to a quarter million dollar fine.

The maximum civil fine that the commission may impose upon “misgendering” is $125,000. But when the violation is the “result of willful, wanton, or malicious conduct,” the maximum fine can double to $250,000.

And just who determines what is “willful, wanton or malicious”?  A council of non-partisans?  A group of randomly-selected persons?  A committee consisting of an equal amount of liberals and conservatives?  No way.  That would be the very same Leftists who wrote and endorsed the original regulation itself.

Oh but wait — as I customarily say — it gets better.

While businesses are held to a strict standard, the guidance makes clear that the government is exempt from the law in “circumstances where certain federal, state, or local laws require otherwise (e.g., for the purposes of employment eligibility verification with the federal government).”

There you go.  The government itself — the entity placing this onerous harness upon the shoulders of business — is exempt.

“All animals are equal but some animals are more equal than others.”
— George Orwell, “Animal Farm”

This is sheer Leftist insanity.  A truly accurate DSM V would in fact list Leftism as a mental disorder.

Which it is.

Tales from a Communist

Obama In Cuba with Che Guevara BehindAmerica is turning Communist.

And no one recognizes a Communist like another Communist, or one living or having lived under a Communist regime.

Cuban-American Filmmaker Warns America Is Morphing Into Communist Country

by Ginni Thomas

Filmmaker and American citizen Agustin Blazquez never thought his native Cuba would become a communist country, but now he sees the same radical shift happening in America.

Correct.  Because each new advocate of Socialism or Communism believes fervently in his or her heart that he or she can truly make it work, if only they were given their own opportunity.  They could “do it better than the last guy” if only they were provided the chance.   Despite what history tells us, and in consideration of the definition of insanity.  They are like their own personal vision of Reddy Kilowatt.  Reddy Kilowatt

In this exclusive video interview for The Daily Caller News Foundation, he says the left has been clever by using “very non-threatening words,” like liberal, progressive and concerned citizens, for advancing government control of American lives. The truth about Cuban politics is hard to find because of media spin and propaganda dominating American discourse.

For Blazquez, watching American youth embrace avowed socialist Sen. Bernie Sanders for president, strikes him as “absurd.” It is the end result, he says, of the cultural Marxist education and media propaganda that has anesthetized too many Americans who do not defend the values that made America exceptional.

Now, however, it is bad for America to be “exceptional.”  That is judgmental.  America is no better than any other country and is frequently — almost always — worse than any other country.  Just ask a Leftist.

And this, ladies and gentlemen, is part and parcel of precisely why Leftists more and more not only want but command the meanings of words to change.  It is about control, nothing but control.

Not control by the people.  Oh no.

Control by the government.  Leftists wish the government to be the ultimate arbiter in everyone’s life.  Der Regierung.

No one knows how to run your life like a Leftist or the government as far as they are concerned.  Your silly-assed views about “what you want” don’t count.  Proles, groundlings, serfs.  STFU and step aside.  Concede your sins and repent, apostate.

FEDERAL GOVERNMENT PURPOSEEnter Orwell’s 1984, written in 1948.  Numerical transposition?  If you have not yet read it, by all means, drop everything and acquire a copy.  Do that now.  Read it.  The similarities to the UK, Europe and now the US are startling.

Millennials do not embrace privacy.  They do not embrace independence.  They embrace babysitting, hand-holding and Free Cheese.

Listen up:

“He who controls the past controls the future. He who controls the present controls the past.”

“War is peace. Freedom is slavery.  Ignorance is strength.”

“The choice for mankind lies between freedom and happiness and for the great bulk of mankind, happiness is better.”

“For, after all, how do we know that two and two make four? Or that the force of gravity works? Or that the past is unchangeable? If both the past and the external world exist only in the mind, and if the mind itself is controllable – what then?”

Meaning: words are mouth diapers to be changed whenever convenience beckons?  Like babies who shit their drawers?

[Note: BZ’s Axiom is: whoever controls SCOTUS and education controls the US.”]

Watching President Barack Obama travel to Cuba, he says, made him “want to throw up.” This was a “betrayal to victims of communism,” the filmmaker of “Covering Cuba” says. Blazquez adds there are “so many [Nelson] Mandelas” in Cuban prisons, who are tortured, denied medical attention and abused. Yet, prominent black elites from America, including most incredibly to him, the Congressional Black Caucus, are wined and dined by the political elites but are blind to their “betrayal of blacks in Cuba.”

Barack Hussein Obaka was wined and dined by the Castros and was dared by Raul Castro to name anyone held illegally in a Cuban prison.  Did Obaka perform the obvious resultant task and pull out his phone and Google “Cuban political prisoner names” as would any other logical thinking human being with technology at their fingertips these days?

Of course not.  Obaka was too busy concentrating on the sucking of Cuban cock.  For his legacy, you see.  He’d been practicing for years on Cuban cigars, available as they were for our elite political class despite their proscription.

As the “fundamental transformation of America” continues under Obama’s governance, Blazquez warns that elites in America are in a precarious situation. Their privileges, rights and property could evaporate fast with America’s trend towards erosion of liberties. “Wake up, America!” the Cuban-American proclaims.

This of course hearkens me to a perfect Animal Farm quote with regard to the application of government in America:

“All animals are equal, but some animals are more equal than others.”

Listen to this author, America.
