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.

Parents, you’re paying for this

Ever wake up one morning and ask yourself: “I wonder what new and moronic idea some Social Justice Flower will unleash upon the US today?” Wonder no more.

First play the video. Then read the article. You’ll howl out loud with larfter at the ridiculous inanity of both. The sad thing: they’re both true.

Texas State seeks math profs with ‘social justice’ commitment

by Toni Airaksinen

  • Texas State University has two new job openings for Math Education professors, but wants applicants to have a demonstrated commitment to social justice.
  • For one of the professorships, the university would prefer a candidate with not only a commitment to social justice, but “evidence of research” on the subject as well.
  • Campus Reform reached out to the school for additional information, but it still remains unclear how such qualifications are expected to benefit the department.

Texas State University is hoping to hire two Math Education professors with a demonstrated and longstanding commitment to “social justice.”

According to the job postings on Inside Higher Ed, the two new professors must not only share TSU’s commitment to “education equity” and “social justice,” but should preferably also have a demonstrated record of engagement or academic research on the issue.

Right. Because demonstrated academic research on “social justice” has, as demonstrated in the video above, everything to do with mathematics.

Among the preferred qualifications for the Assistant Professor rank is a “demonstrated knowledge and engagement” with issues including “social justice, equity, access, and multilingual learning,” while the Associate and Full Professor ranks prefer “evidence of research and practices” on such topics.

You’ll love the kicker:

While the job application specifies that TSU is a “Hispanic Serving Institution,” it is unclear how exactly a background in social justice is expected to benefit the department, since it currently offers no social justice programming or classes.

“One of those things is not like the other.”

My, how degeneratively-stupid we’ve become as a nation.
