Formerly great Britain has succumbed to moonbattery to such an extreme that you can be arrested for silently praying in public. At least you can still pray at home — if not for long:

Scotland has enacted new abortion legislation that could criminalize praying at home within designated zones. The Abortion Services Act (Scotland) 2024 could result in prosecution for activities conducted in their own homes if these actions cause “harassment, alarm, or distress” to staff and patients at abortion clinics.

Even suspecting that someone might be praying for the innocent lives they snuff out distresses the belligerently sensitive fiends who run abortion clinics.

Residents in Edinburgh received letters warning them about the new law, The Telegraph reported, noting that the legislation establishes 200-meter “safe access zones” around all abortion clinics in the country.

Before long, all of Airstrip One will be a “safe access zone” — i.e., subject to the last extremes of leftist tyranny.

Those who risk being seen through the window praying have been warned that serious offenses carry an unlimited fine.

It is fitting that progressives are criminalizing Christianity in the name of abortion, which serves them as a satanic sacrament (see here, here, and here).

In other British legislative news, Two-Tier Keir Starmer’s party is pushing a law that “would force business owners, such as publicans, to employ Stasi-style speech police to comply with the government diktats” so that no one can say anything politically incorrect in pubs.

The disgraceful fate of the UK will befall the USA if Democrats are not pried from power soon.

On a tip from Bluto.

Given that the Democratic Party represents a degenerate authoritarian elite that is antithetical to the American people, how could it run as conspicuously awful a candidate as Kamala Harris and conceivably win? Democrats own the media is one reason. They own big tech is another.

Media Research Center reports:

On Oct. 8, MRC researchers once again used AllSides “right” and “left” bias classifications and found that Google search results for “kamala harris presidential race 2024” and “donald trump presidential race 2024” were stuffed with leftist, legacy media sources. The results featured outlets like CNN and The New York Times as well as publications of leftist billionaires like Jeff Bezos’s The Washington Post and Marc Benioff’s Time. When searching for the aforementioned Harris search prompt, researchers did not find any U.S.-based media outlets that AllSides rates as “lean-right” or “right” until Fox News appeared as the first result on page 11 of Google search results. Likewise, Google buried the first U.S.-based “lean right” or “right” result for the aforementioned Trump prompt as the sixth result on the 23rd page, as Google featured a Fox News video in this spot.

Although one “lean right” video appeared in the search results for the Trump prompt, Google outrageously did not display a single “right” or “lean right” news article from a U.S.-based source anywhere in the tech giant’s search results, which ran out after 26 pages.

Google has engaged in election interference since at least 2008. Another recent example:

Google buried Trump’s campaign website so far down that it did not appear on the first page of results during the Republican National Convention and ahead of the July presidential debate between Trump and Biden.

No doubt Google has other means of manipulating opinion that are less ham-fisted.

An increasing number of Americans get their news via search engines, a market Google has cornered.

To run against the Democratic Party is to run against Google, which lays a heavy thumb on the scale.

On Columbus Day yesterday, countermoonbats honored one of the greatest men who ever lived for spreading European culture to the New World, where it displaced Stone Age barbarism. Democrats mark the day by expressing the hatred of civilization that is the cornerstone of their ideology:

On Monday, past comments made by Democratic presidential candidate Kamala Harris about Columbus Day recirculated the internet. Vice President Harris slammed the traditional annual honoring of Columbus for not telling the “whole story” and referred to America’s history as “shameful” in a 2021 statement. She also referred to the holiday by the controversial name “Indigenous People’s Day.”

Looks like she had a teleprompter; Cackala avoided word salads while explaining how our heritage is shameful:

Leftists give Columbus zero credit for radically improving the standard of living of the brutal savages who came to this hemisphere before Europeans. In their Manichean ideology, Columbus and “indigenous people” are polar opposites. They call Columbus Day “Indigenous People’s Day” for the same reason they might start calling Christmas “Satan Day.”

Looks like Commiela wants to make the name change official at the federal level:

Running mate Tim Walz is on board with canceling Columbus:

What part of “We hate America to its core and intend to destroy it” do people not understand?

Under liberal domination, prioritizing DEI over merit isn’t just encouraged; it is mandatory. Those who fail to comply will be punished:

Mike Shaw, who until recently served as the Oregon Department of Forestry’s second-in-command, was put on blast by Megan Donecker, the department’s former DEI strategy officer, for looking “beyond gender and identity in hiring, seeking only candidates most qualified for the job,” OregonLive reported.

Shaw was placed on administrative leave.

Shaw first drew Donecker’s ire when he dared suggest the agency — which has over 1,400 employees and a biennial budget over $577 million — take a measured approach to DEI initiatives, likening plunging into them headlong to driving too fast on “an icy road.”

He should have elaborated that the icy road goes over a bridge that is out — as will be demonstrated if DEI candidate Kamala Harris prevails in November.

Our society is largely governed by moonbat bureaucrats like this:

Megan Donecker, who describes herself as “an accomplice to marginalized communities,” now works as a DEI consultant. That’s where the big bucks are in her line of work.

Everyone knows that liberal establishment apparatchiks like ABC’s Martha Raddatz are preposterous clowns — except the supercilious propagandists themselves. What they need is an articulate countermoonbat to explain it to their faces:

As ABC News would prefer we not know, gang members pouring into the country illegally from Venezuela with the blessing of the Biden/Harris administration have been taking over the Denver suburb Aurora. You can believe professional liar Martha Raddatz, or you can believe City Councilmember Danielle Jurinsky:

To answer the question by Jones above about why liberal information oligarchs keep providing Vance with opportunities to mop the floor with them, maybe they can’t make it compute that this hillbilly is smarter than they are.

If FEMA is worse than useless during hurricanes, it isn’t because the moonbat bureaucrats in charge bestowed all the money upon illegal aliens. Some of the money went to promoting transgenderism and DEI:

In the last 2 years, FEMA spent nearly $2 million on a sole source contract with Montage Marketing Group to promote extremist LGBTQ and DEI agendas. …

Montage was hired to implement FEMA’s “Inclusive Diversity Council” and work with FEMA’s “employee resource groups” (ERGs) that focus on leftist social agendas, including an LGBT advocacy group simply called “Pride.” Montage was tasked with promoting the “Transgender Day of Remembrance” through graphic design and video production.

Promoting degeneracy and sexual depravity may not be as important as displacing the American population with unlawful invaders from the Third World, but it takes priority over helping rural white people whose homes have washed away.

The federal level of incompetence could not be achieved without the help of DEI:

Another FEMA top priority is making sure they don’t have too many white people working in the agency, stating that diversity, equity, and inclusion is not optional. The FEMA director told Congress in 2023 the agency was adapting its recruiting efforts to hire “minorities.”

More social engineering:

FEMA further dictates to their employees that bathroom use must be based on a person’s self-identified sex, not biological sex, and employees must not misgender or fail to use a person’s preferred pronouns.

Reality itself takes a back seat to moonbat ideology, so victims of Helene and Milton shouldn’t take their abandonment personally.

Even if sanity prevails in November, Cackala’s legacy is secure. Already she has left us with a treasure trove of inspirational quotes that will keep us laughing for years. The latest:

Imagine if you will a country where people like this are in charge:

A Democrat candidate for the North Carolina House was arrested and charged after being seen removing campaign signs for former President Donald Trump.

Lowell Simon, who serves as the head of the Democrat Party in Moore County, admitted he had “removed” the Trump signs on Thursday evening, and acknowledged that he “shouldn’t have done that,” according to WRAL News.

“My worse angels got the better of me and I removed the signs,” Simon admitted in a statement.

Angels? With Democrats, the reference should be to demons.

As a recent Rasmussen survey indicates, our moonbat ruling class opposes free speech. They castigate facts and opinions that do not align with their ideology as “misinformation.” Prominent Democrat Hillary Clinton has explicitly called for misinformation a.k.a. dissent to be criminalized. Does Tim Walz agree? Let’s ask him:

Given that liberals regard disagreement as “violence,” his reference to “speech that’s aimed at creating violence” is not reassuring. But even if disinformation, hate speech, et cetera are suppressed, children will continue to be exposed to homosexual pornography in public schools, which is what he means when he says he opposes book banning.

Republicans and Democrats represent two groups that are increasingly antithetical: regular Americans and a degenerate, authoritarian ruling class. A recent Rasmussen survey highlights the widening divide.

Via Daily Signal:

According to the report, “members of the Elite 1% have very favorable opinions of university professors, lawyers, union leaders, journalists, and members of Congress.”

This tends not to be true of the “Main Street Americans” against whom the survey contrasts elitists.

The most conspicuous characteristic of our moonbat ruling class is degeneracy. This is showcased by aggressive Democrat support for the LGBT agenda. In addition to a higher percentage of elitists believing men should be allowed to participate in women’s sports,

The elites are also far more likely to announce their pronouns when introducing themselves.

Passing from the ludicrous to the alarming, elitists oppose free speech:

Voters, by a 59% to 34% margin, believe that letting the government decide what counts as misinformation is more dangerous than the disinformation itself. Among the Elite 1%, the numbers are reversed: by a 57% to 39% margin, they see letting the government decide as the lesser problem.

Elitists don’t like the Second Amendment any better than the First:

The research found that 77% of the elites polled want to ban the private ownership of firearms.

There will be civil war if these people consolidate power much further. Either that or America just dies.

Next month’s election will be key. The elitists could win for two reasons: (1) they control the media and (2) they control the system and are willing to cheat:

“If their campaign team thought they could get away with cheating to win, 7% of voters would want their team to cheat,” the polling found. “Among the Elite 1%, the support for cheating rose to 35%. And, among the Politically Active Elites, 69% would want their team to cheat, rather than accept voters’ decisions.”

Shockingly yet unsurprisingly,

The report found that “two-thirds (65%) of the Elite 1%—and 82% of Politically Active Elites—think most voters agree with them on important issues. As has been documented throughout this report, that is far from an accurate assessment.”

All normal people embrace degenerate left-wing authoritarianism. Those who don’t are “extremists” whose opinions don’t count. Ask any elitist moonbat.

Brace yourself for a major collision ahead.

The lack of self-awareness resulting from living in a bubble of wokeness makes moonbats masters of self-parody. Snowflakes are even triggered by snowflake candles that remind them of the KKK. As usual, big business caters to their neurosis:

Retailer Bath & Body Works apologized for a candle promoted on its social media accounts displaying a snowflake, which some said appeared quite similar to a Ku Klux Klan hood.

That’s how desperate liberals have gotten in their search for white supremacists to clutch their pearls over.

The company, which is known for its fragranced candles and personal hygiene products, pulled the candle from its website and apologized in a statement to TMZ.

The moonbat mob demanded heads roll:

Trying to get people fired is what Democrats do now instead of lynch blacks like they did when they comprised the KKK.
