Sorry. Not sorry.

Serious question since I don't follow the news; how many people have the Proud Boys killed so far in their protesting, rioting and lawlessness? I'd assume dozens since they are presumably all armed.

Not killed, how about shot, accidentally or otherwise?

I'm just curious because 19 people have been killed in the mostly peaceful "Floyd" protests. I use quotes because it was organized political parties that used people's feelings about the Floyd death to further their ulterior motive of moving towards Communism. Brilliant strategy I must admit.

Since guns kill people, and not people, I just assumed there would be a lot more than that from the PB since there are a lot of guns there looking to kill.

George [2 first names] Floyd, Breona Taylor and others were casualties of the War on Drugs. Pantifa calling themselves anti-fash is the brilliant move, at least according to S. Adams.

Not White. Not Superemist:

The Proud Boys are a men’s organization founded in 2016 by Vice Media co-founder Gavin McInnes. McInnes has described the Proud Boys as a pro-Western fraternal organization for men who refuse to apologize for creating the modern world; aka Western Chauvinists.

Proud Boys‘ values center on the following tenets:

Minimal Government
Maximum Freedom
Anti-Political Correctness
Anti-Drug War
Closed Borders
Anti-Racial Guilt
Anti-Racism
Pro-Free Speech (1st Amendment)
Pro-Gun Rights (2nd Amendment)
Glorifying the Entrepreneur
Venerating the Housewife
Reinstating a Spirit of Western Chauvinism

Their use of the word Chauvinism enables confusion to be sown. If [those other guys] called themselves female chauvinists it would be more clear.

Their original motto: 'F*** around and find out'. Their new motto 'Stand back. Stand by'. 'Stand down' didn't make the cut, it was a[n intentionally high-pitched] dog-whistle to the Left.

Seriously...

You need to start paying attention.

There’s big trouble on the horizon.

I'm in strong agreement with most of those points, perhaps less so about glorifying the entrepreneur. Why do I need to glorify Zuckerberg? Besides, not everyone can be (or desires to be) an entrepreneur.

I wouldn't join the group though simply because I've got better things to do than irritate people who are looking to be irritated. Mission accomplished, I don't have to do anything for people wanting to be offended to be offended.

So (counter)protesting in this way is pointless. Now if they are securing property and life to fill in a void left by the police, then that's a whole other noble cause.

BLM is another brilliant marketing strategy too, because it exploits the fact that people can't/won't draw a distinction between me saying I recognize that black lives matter as much as any life, and that I am opposed to the Communist, anti-family agenda of Black Lives Matter Inc.

When I start a movement, I'm going to title it "Don't Kill Puppies" (DKP). If you disagree with my agenda, I'll just say you're a horrible puppy killer. I'll take advantage of the good nature of people to promote my agenda by offering signs they can put in their windows proclaiming "Don't Kill Puppies". Charitable donations to my organization will further my own agenda, but I'll promise to kill no puppies in the process.

The biggest trouble that ever finds me is of my own doing.

If insanity wants a challenge, it can come look me up. I'm happy to dox myself. What we call doxing nowadays is what the phone book is/was.

I'm a lot happier to not follow the ever changing, rarely important political talking points of the day. They are all garbage; distractions from actual problems that can actually be addressed with reasoned action.

I listen to thinkers via podcasts, so I'm not clueless about ideologies that are en vogue, but I do make a point to know as little about news headlines as possible, because again, they don't matter in the least to me. Floyd ODing in police custody has no bearing on my life whatsoever, and says nothing of a larger issue because it's an anecdote.

World news on the other hand is more important. Where and who is promoting peace and liberty, and where and who is breeding chaos.

Else the beginning of a Golden Age. Interesting times.

You don't. If you follow the DARPA>Lifelog>Facebook trajectory, there's not a lot of entrepreneurship involved. OTOH, Jobs and Musk.

It's like salt in your diet, you can get enough by 'osmosis'.

Rather than the MSMBS, try the open-source intelligence from the spooks. They telegraph some events a year in advance*. Of course some of it is disinformation to cause the opposition to expend ammunition, use discernment.

*Example: 'Songbird' McCain being put down on Dog Day.

Zuckerberg was just the first to mind. The others don't need my congratulations either, as they have congratulated themselves plenty. I'm an admirer of many of the things Musk has accomplished, but I don't need to glorify him.

Besides all that, the way you glorify an entrepreneur is to buy their stuff.

Salt osmosis is a good analogy. That's right up there with an Adam Corolla level analogy.

Adam Corolla level analogy.

I'll take it.

Not just anybody can be an enterper- entruper- inventive businessman. But they move the chess pieces forward.

Speaking of diet, I'm not a Person of Color, I am a Being of Light. I consume sunlight and turn it into Vitamin D.
