A message to Red Lobster

You can’t hurl a dead cat more than three feet before you happen to hit some business that has decided to cave like craven bastards and bastardettes before the various SJWs flitting about on the internet and on social media.

Another corporation has bitten the dust in my book, and that is Red Lobster. From the WashingtonTimes.com:

Red Lobster says Tucker Carlson’s show ‘no longer in line’ with company values, pulls ads

by Jessica Chasmar

Red Lobster is pulling advertisements from Tucker Carlson’s prime-time Fox News show amid an ongoing boycott against the conservative host for comments he made about illegal immigration and women’s pay.

Red Lobster’s advertising buying guidelines reflect our core values and commitment to supporting programming that represents the highest standards of good taste, fair practice and objectivity,” the seafood chain said in a statement Tuesday.

“We reserve the right to make changes to our purchases when the dialogue is no longer in line with our criteria,” the company said.

Mr. Tucker sparked outrage last month after he claimed illegal immigration made the U.S. “poorer and dirtier.”

One moment. Yes. BZ agrees. Unchecked illegal immigration — as is fully not just desired by demanded by the LDAMM (Leftists, Demorats and the American Media Maggots) — is making the United States poorer and dirtier. First, there aren’t merely 11 million illegals in the nation; there are 22 million. Second, please reference:

Third, in terms of “dirtier,” we have this from the CanadaFreePress.com:

Crisis of Seriously Ill Migrants Slams Border Patrol — TB, Pneumonia, Influenza, Parasites

by Judicial Watch

Weeks after mainstream media outlets reported that illegal immigrants don’t bring disease into the United States, the Border Patrol reveals that it is getting slammed daily with dozens of illegal immigrants carrying “serious illnesses.” This includes tuberculosis, influenza and pneumonia. In fact, a Guatemalan migrant who died in U.S. custody on Christmas Eve had Influenza B, a virus that causes respiratory infections.

Federal agents are referring 50 illegal immigrants a day for urgent medical care, according to figures obtained by Washington D.C.’s conservative newspaper. Authorities say “it’s unlike anything they’ve ever seen before.” Many of the migrants have tuberculosis, parasites or the flu, the feds confirm.

There are also lots of pregnant women about to give birth. The article quotes Customs and Border Protection (CBP) Commissioner Kevin McAleenan saying that most of the illegal immigrants were sick when they arrived at the U.S. border. “Many were ill before they departed their homes,” McAleenan said. “We’re talking about cases of pneumonia, tuberculosis, parasites. These are not things that developed urgently in a matter of days.”

A separate story published by a mainstream newspaper on New Year’s Eve discloses that in the last few weeks of 2018 more than 450 illegal immigrants required medical attention for illnesses. More than half were children. In the piece CBP Commissioner McAleenan refers to the situation as a “crisis.”

Here’s an excerpt from the article: “The ill migrants have been arriving with all kinds of ailments, many with flu or pneumonia that can be particularly pervasive and dangerous this time of year.” It proceeds to reveal that 17 illegal immigrants have been hospitalized and that the Coast Guard has been deployed to help, sending medical teams to Border Patrol sectors getting bombarded with sick migrants. They include Yuma and Tucson, Arizona as well as the Rio Grande Valley.

That sounds like veracity to me.

The corporate nits at RL also said:

More recently, he cast doubt on the claim that higher pay for women is a “victory for feminism.”

“Casting doubt” — i.e., “asking questions” — is now anathema to Leftists. Whoa buddy. No questions allowed. Dogma 24/7/365.

I believe that this is the segment referenced.

So. Did you live after watching and listening? Or did you turn into a festering, quivering pile of lipoma butter? Because Tucker Carlson told the actual truth?

Let there be no mistake. This Red Lobster decision didn’t occur by happenstance, coincidence or indifference. This was a concerted corporate decision by the CEO of Red Lobster. This was an active decision on the part of Red Lobster. They meant to make a statement and then live by it.

But wait; there’s more.

Red Lobster doesn’t operate in a vacuum. Formerly owned by Darden, it is now owned by Golden Gate Capital, an investment firm in California. Shocked, not shocked? GGC now owns Macaroni Grill, California Pizza Kitchen and is associated with Blum Capital.

Who or what is Blum Capital?

Oh, right. Richard Blum. Who happens to be the husband of Diane Feinstein since their marriage in 1980. DiFi is married to an investment banker.

Connecting the dots now, are you?

Thanks to Lonnie Poindexter for pointing out the situation. And because of that I responded to both Lonnie and Red Lobster in this fashion:

“Dear Red Lobster:

As Tucker Carlson no longer comports with your values, so does Red Lobster no longer comport with mine. I am letting my friends know of your decision. 

Since when does a food franchise decide it’s going to alienate 70% of its customer base?

So, I have decided to help you alienate even more customers by passing along your desire that Conservatives not patronize your establishments.

Consider it done.”

After all, information is power.

And you need to know when corporations stand against you.

Red Lobster and Golden Gate Capital and Blum Capital and Leftists stand against you.

When you dine at Red Lobster, your money goes to support Leftists.

It’s that simple.

Never again.

Time to shut down US universities?

Professor Jason Hill: heretic. Just ask any Leftist. Career suicide.

On last Friday’s Tucker Carlson Tonight show, he featured DePaul University Professor of Philosophy Jason Hill who submitted that perhaps it’s time to shut down some universities. Professor Hill wrote this piece published on July 16th at TheHill.com:

A professor’s call to shut down our nation’s universities

by Jason D. Hill, Opinion Contributor

Thirty-three years ago, when I entered college, left-wing ideologies dominated American universities, and especially the humanities and social sciences. But one still could get a fair, balanced education by consulting traditional canonical texts that countered the dogma. Free speech was alive on college campuses. There were hisses and boos, of course, but for the most part, hearing perspectives different from your own was considered essential to your education. Few of us lived in our own curated silos.

Today, after 22 years of being a college professor, and having traveled much of America to lecture, I am sad to say the situation is not the same. The core principles and foundations that keep the United States intact, that provide our citizens with their civic personalities and national identities, are being annihilated. The gravest internal threat to this country is not illegal aliens; it is leftist professors who are waging a war against America and teaching our young people to hate this country.

Our universities risk losing their status as learning sites and becoming national security threats. We need to defund them, disband and rebuild them with conservative principles — that is, values advocating individualism, capitalism, Americanism, free speech, self-reliance and the morality of wealth creation.

Astounding rhetoric from, essentially, a Leftist. Any Professor of Philosophy certainly isn’t a screaming Conservative.

Ordinarily, the best way to counter an intellectual adversary is through a contest of rational faculties. The person with reality on his or her side, with the best relevant facts and strongest arguments, usually wins. But today’s scholars in humanities and social sciences increasingly declare that modern argumentation is a white, Western form of domination and linguistic imperialism that silences racial and ethnic minorities and devalues their “lived experiences.”

One cannot argue with such people. The only alternative is to shut them down.  

From the show:

“Bolshevik-loving welfare scholars.” Jesus, Mary and Joseph, what a beautimous and applicable line from the interview.

Professor Hill concludes with this paragraph:

Withdraw your support and leave them to fund themselves. Let them pit their wares on the free market, where they will be left homeless. The world you desired no longer exists in our universities. It lies elsewhere, in a philosophic system waiting to be discovered or created.

I can’t say I disagree in the slightest. Let universities compete in a capitalist, free-market economy. To the competitive winners go the spoils.

Leftist Demorat Eric Swalwell wears tinfoil

Eric Swalwell, a Demorat Representative from — wait for it — California — insists that Donald Trump was sending messages in video by telling jokes. I’m not making this up.

AYFKM. Really? Watch and listen.

Donald Trump must truly be the ultimate master of hiding in plain sight.

“He’s committing the offer in broad daylight.”

Swalwell: “Trump’s positive statements about Russia and Putin.” Listen, from 2012:

“On all these issues, but particularly missile defense, this, this can be solved, but it’s important for him to give me space,” Obama can be heard telling Medvedev, apparently referring to incoming Russian president — and outgoing prime minister — Vladi­mir Putin.

“Yeah, I understand,” Medvedev replies, according to an account relayed by an ABC News producer, who said she viewed a recording of the discussion made by a Russian camera crew. “I understand your message about space. Space for you . . .”

“This is my last election,” Obama interjects. “After my election, I have more flexibility.”

Medvedev, who last week demanded written proof that Russia is not the intended target of U.S. missile defense efforts, responded agreeably.

“I understand,” he told the U.S. president. “I will transmit this information to Vladimir.”

Oh come on. No Russian collusion whatsoever.

And the American Media Maggots wonder why they are bleeding.
