Wales epitomizes the government application of global warmism by using diesel generators to charge its new fleet of electric garbage trucks:

Cardiff Council started transitioning to electric vehicles for its waste collection in 2021 as part of its efforts to hit net zero by 2030.

But it was forced to admit that it was charging the vehicles using diesel generators after a local resident spotted the backup power.

Green energy boondoggles are great for chopping up or incinerating birds (and for laundering taxpayer money), but are of very limited usefulness for actually producing energy. Yet the extravagantly expensive, risibly asinine posturing continues.

No worries; the Biden Regime has settled on a solution for the need to fall back on generators when green energy inevitably fails: make them illegal.

Until fairly recently, kids learned to use rifles in high school. But as leftists consolidate control, even archery will be banned:

[T]he Department of Education determined that, under the Bipartisan Safer Communities Act (BSCA) passed last year, school hunting and archery classes are precluded from receiving federal funding.

Once they get people reliant on the federal teat, that which is not funded is effectively banned. This funding comes from our own money. Astonishingly, there are people who find this arrangement acceptable.

In June 2022, the BSCA was passed with large majorities in the House and Senate before President Biden signed it into law. The push to pass the bill — which broadly seeks to promote “safer, more inclusive and positive” school environments, according to the Education Department — came after mass shootings at a grocery market in Buffalo, New York, and a school in Uvalde, Texas.

No more mass murders employing bows and arrows. Big Government has made settlers safe from Indian raids at last.

Uvalde appallingly underscored the failure of authorities to protect the innocent. Yet it is exploited to render us still more defenseless — to the cartoonish extreme of coming after archery.

Next the Debt Star will defund wrestling programs, lest students learn to defend themselves with headlocks. Look what happened to the sainted Jordan Neely, they can argue.

Now that the Long March Through the Institutions has claimed higher education, religious studies would more accurately be called “blasphemy studies”:

The University of Chicago’s 2023-2024 course catalog includes a religious studies course on “Queering God,” applying LGBTQ+ ideology to different religions and examining the ways gender is being reimagined in theology.

“Is God queer?” asks the course description. “We will analyze the ways that contemporary artists, activists, and scholars are using theology to reimagine gender and experiment with new relational forms.”

Imagine being forced to pay off other people’s student loans in defiance of a Supreme Court ruling so that can moonbats can reimagine gender rather than work.

Speaking of theology, we are reminded again why the LGBT movement chose the rainbow as its symbol. It was already the symbol of God’s promise never again to destroy the world with a flood to punish our sins. The main point of LGBTism is to taunt God.

That’s why liberals ram it down our throats, even in theology courses — or rather, especially in theology courses. Something else moonbattery has appropriated from Christianity is the commandment, “Thou shalt have no other gods before me.”

Remember when transvestite Fallon Fox gave a woman a concussion and broke her eye socket while competing as a member of the opposite sex in mixed martial arts? Pushback was insufficient, so now we read about Canadian rugby player Ash Davis:

Via Reduxx:

The identity of the man involved in the incident has now been confirmed as Ash Davis, who previously played in the men’s division of the club and had been awarded the “hardest hitter” designation during the Senior Awards Banquet just last year.

According to a source within the rugby club, there has been “much opposition” to Davis’ participation in the women’s category, but club members are concerned about speaking up out of “fear of being labeled transphobic.”

Mr Davis evidently still takes the field against women.

Good thing this isn’t the olden days. Davis would have to deal with the women’s husbands. They might not be as easy to injure.

At least in the UK there has been resistance:

Trans women are not women. Failure to defend this obvious fact in the face of LGBT bullying is getting women hurt.

The latest oppressed identity group to join the Cultural Marxist coalition is the morbidly obese. They are even holding a convention this Halloween to celebrate their hurtful marginalization. You can tell they are put-upon because they shop like Black Lives Matter looters — just a little more slowly:

Via Daily Mail:

The brazen heist unfolded [last] Saturday at the discount retailer’s North Freeway Boulevard location in Sacramento, where the three women were caught on camera trudging away with shopping carts loaded with stolen goods.

‘D**n look at these people stealing! Say hi to the camera!’ the bystander filming the incident can be heard saying, as alarms blared and the shoplifters piled mounds of clothing and shoes into the trunk of a red Dodge Charger.

Under moonbat rule, shoplifting is all but legal in California. Property is theft, according to the prevailing ideology. However, in this case authorities might investigate:

[I]n addition to audaciously looting the Burlington store, the three shoplifters had parked in a handicap spot without displaying a placard.

Major chains have been forced to close stores due to out of control shoplifting. No worries; California lawmakers are addressing the issue:

Although California has been one of the epicenters of organized retail crime, state lawmakers there are considering legislation that would ban store employees from confronting thieves.

Senate Bill 553 was passed by the state Senate last month and is currently in committee in the state Assembly.

No problem Democrats create is so awful that they can’t pass legislation making it even worse.

Nothing was more wholesome and all-American than the Boy Scouts of America. So moonbats infiltrated and corrupted the organization. Because children are involved, the emphasis has been on perverted sex, in keeping with liberal proclivities.

Gushes the Washington Post:

Amid the hundreds of tents erected for the Boy Scouts of America’s National Jamboree, one especially stands out — decorated with a canopy of LGBTQ Pride flags and a string of multicolored lights, its tables covered with bowls of rainbow bracelets, pronoun stickers and diversity patches.

“This is my entire world,” said 18-year-old River Capell, a scout volunteer from Northern Virginia who describes themselves as nonbinary and pansexual.

River says the embrace of politicized sexual depravity by the BSA has been “incredibly welcoming and positive.”

Now that only a liberal would be willing to send their son out into the woods with these creeps, the BSA can be added to the list of institutions that have fallen to progressives.

The triumphant obituary was written by “queer journalist” Mike De Socio, who essentially admits that his fellow homosexuals have destroyed the BSA:

The organization lost nearly half of its membership between 2019 and 2020. This national event represents one of its first steps out of a generational nadir brought about by the pandemic, a sexual abuse scandal and an ensuing bankruptcy.

The BSA had barely resolved its struggle over membership policies — fully admitting gay men in 2015 and trans boys in 2017, and then cisgender girls in 2018 — before facing an avalanche of sexual abuse claims.

The BSA was crushed by a $2.46 billion settlement. Submitting to LGBT bullies comes at a price.

All’s well that ends well. As every Democrat knows, you have to destroy before you can replace:

Scouts within the ranks [i.e., leftist adults who had infiltrated the organization in order to subvert it] seized the moment to press for a focus on diversity, equity and inclusion. A collective dubbed “Scouts for Black Lives” successfully pushed the organization to commit to a slate of projects, including a new diversity merit badge required for Eagle Scout rank.

No word on whether you can still achieve Eagle Scout status without an anal sex merit badge.

The BSA has been repurposed. It now serves to indoctrinate children with woke ideology and groom them on behalf of the Alphabet People. You may as well turn your son over to NAMBLA.

As moonbats openly taunt, they are coming for your children. They will do this not only through their control of the entertainment and education establishments, but through direct government force.

The Land of Fruits and Nuts is once again at the vanguard, with two bills that have already passed the State Assembly:

The text of AB 957 states that it “would include a parent’s affirmation of the child’s gender identity or gender expression as part of the health, safety, and welfare of the child.”

As the California Globe reported, the bill could cause a parent to “lose custody for not ‘affirming’ or agreeing to a child’s claims about gender identity.” This would apply in custody disputes in which one parent wants to “affirm” the child’s confusion about gender, and the other does not.

As if that weren’t enough,

A related bill, AB 665, passed in the State Assembly on April 10 and has also made its way into the Senate chambers. If signed into law, it would allow a minor as young as 12 to be emancipated from his or her parents and transferred into state custody without a court order.

Former San Diego City Councilman and two-time Congressional candidate Carl DeMaio, R-CA, is leading the charge to oppose AB 665. He said the bill “effectively takes children away from their parents if they aren’t ‘woke’ enough.” DeMaio added: “The worst part is that the bill permits even counselors and interns to make and facilitate decisions to allow the state to take these kids away from their parents.”

Both bills will soon be law:

If one or both pieces of legislation were to pass the State Senate, where Democrats hold an 80% majority, the bills would head to the desk of Gov. Gavin Newsom, D-CA.

Newsom can be expected to eagerly showcase his allegiance to the LGBT agenda at the expense of parents — again.

As Republican State Senator Scott Wilk advises, parents need to flee California. After that, they need to protect their new home from the metastasizing cancer that has claimed the Left Coast.

Last night at Truman Civil Rights Symposium, the Commander in Chief crowed triumphantly that what’s left of the USA has “the most diverse fighting fice … in the history of the world”:

Biden misspoke of course. He meant to say “fighting farce.” Not that the transsexuals who have been prioritized are expected to fight — they are too privileged for that.

The US military is no farce yet. But with the likes of Biden at the top, implementing their agenda through Pentagon brass comprised of moonbats, it will be soon.

We are spending ourselves into oblivion to mar the landscape and kill off eagles with inefficient wind turbines, which serve mainly as looming symbols of leftist hegemony (and of course, to launder taxpayer money). But the real cost will come when we finally tear the hideous things down.

In Australia, landowners may be saddled with this gargantuan expense:

Andrew Dyer, the country’s energy infrastructure commissioner says he has seen several “questionable agreements” between renewable companies and landholders that could leave the latter saddled with millions of dollars in decommissioning bills.

“Under the law, it will default to the landlord,” Mr. Dyer told a Senate Estimates hearing on May 23.

According to Dyer,

“It costs more money to pull a turbine down than it does to put it up… The costs of pulling down a turbine may exceed the revenue you get for 25 years.”

Twenty-five years is the expected lifespan of a wind turbine, although it is unlikely that people will still tolerate their presence a quarter century from now. It won’t take people that long to face the choice between rejection of moonbattery and societal collapse.

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is a Democrat and a flaming moonbat on topics like environmentalism. However, he deviates from liberal orthodoxy regarding Covid, censorship, Ukraine, and guns. More importantly, he could stand between Joe Biden and reelection. Consequently, he is expendable — highly expendable:

This could be a touchy subject for RFK Jr, considering that both his father and his uncle were assassinated.

Recruitment of potential assassins is already underway. RFK Jr has been demonized by the liberal media to the point that he is more popular among Republicans than Democrats.

Donald Trump shouldn’t complain; all they are doing to him is trying to throw him in prison. No wonder more Democrats don’t step forward to challenge the conspicuously unfit Biden.

Michigan under moonbat rule exemplifies anarchotyranny. It will soon be a felony to say anything an LGBT person takes exception to. However, murder is all but legal — and not only regarding inconvenient babies. A woman just received a 1-year wrist slap for a particularly horrific patricide:

A teenager who fatally doused her sleeping father with a chemical drain cleaner which left him gravely ill until he succumbed to his injuries six months later, has walked free from court after only getting a one year sentence with credit for time served.

That means they let her go free.

Megan Imirowicz, 19, could have faced a life sentence over the death of her 64-year-old father, Konrad, with whom she was angry because he was too drunk to take her to a hair appointment.

He did not die quickly or pleasantly:

While in hospital, Konrad [Imirowicz] had his legs amputated, endured multiple infections, a tracheotomy, skin grafts and kidney dialysis, reports The Oakland Press.

Take that, patriarchy!

No doubt Megan is the real victim. Having to shoulder responsibility for getting to hair appointments on her own must have been traumatic for her. But she feels much better now:

‘I’m really happy I get to go home with [what’s left of] my family,’ she said to Law & Crime Network on Tuesday, adding: ‘I’m excited.’

Maybe she’ll celebrate with a trip to Disneyland.

Despite having been found guilty, she does not accept responsibility for the murder. Accepting responsibility is not a feature of anarchotyrannical societies.
