The Pathology of Political Progressivism

The following correspondence originally took place on my Facebook wall, after I posted a quote shared by an acquaintance…

Rayn:

“Political Progressivism in the USA is an ideology that currently holds it to be an egregious wrong to refer disparagingly to women but considers it hunky-dory to kill them and their children with drone rockets. The evidence in this regard seems to me to be a matter of record and beyond dispute.”

~Robert Higgs

“But, Obama dropped *humanitarian* bombs on the innocent civilians of Afghanistan, Iraq, Pakistan, Yemen, Libya, Syria and Somalia! Plus, democrats actually welcome any survivors of our ‘aid’ to come and live in America! Unlike those racist Republicans, the left cares about refugees!”

Ryan H.: I enjoyed what you added to the post. Nice work Rayn.

() Responding to unconfirmed allegations circulating on right-wing websites, Hillary Clinton said Tuesday that she does not remember ever joking about targeting the founder of WikiLeaks in a drone strike.

The conservative website True Pundit cited anonymous “State Department sources” in a report on Sunday to claim that Clinton in 2010 suggested to some staff members that the U.S. “drone” Julian Assange of WikiLeaks, whose website had embarrassed the U.S. when it published diplomatic cables, among other documents.

“Can’t we just drone this guy?” the website claimed Clinton had said.

My Commentary: Convenient…

The Nobel Peace Prize is Absolutely Meaningless, and Represents Pure Political Theater

I originally posted the following commentary onto my Facebook wall after receiving an automated “Tell Your Friends” about the upcoming Nobel Prizes from the social network…

Facebook:

"Congratulations Are in Order This year's Nobel Prize winners will be announced this week, honoring those who have dedicated their lives to making the world more open and connected through science, literature and the pursuit of peace."

“Congratulations Are in Order
This year’s Nobel Prize winners will be announced this week, honoring those who have dedicated their lives to making the world more open and connected through science, literature and the pursuit of peace.”

My Commentary: *sigh* Barack Obama, the 2009 Nobel Peace Prize winner, was really just a War Criminal, who proceeded to continue engaging in Wars of aggression, and committing Crimes against humanity for eight solid years. He also became the first Nobel Peace Prize winner to bomb another Nobel Peace Prize winner, too… A regular trend-setter.

So… either “WAR IS PEACE,” and we’ve been living in 1984 for almost a decade…

Or, alternatively… if you still have any morals, principles and a conscience left…

THE NOBEL PEACE PRIZE is ABSOLUTELY MEANINGLESS, and merely represents PURE POLITICAL THEATER!

The following debate originally took place on my Facebook wall, upon my post, “Bombing Civilians For Peace!“…

Rayn: War-Criminal-in-Chief Obama is a regular trend-setter!

"The first Nobel Peace Prize winner to bomb another Nobel Peace Prize Winner"

“The first Nobel Peace Prize winner to bomb another Nobel Peace Prize winner”

Anke M.: Jeez Rayn, what’s wrong with you? You and Genaire have fairly gone of the tracks!
I know neither one of you are stupid, but posting this nonsense really pisses me of!

Rayn: What’s wrong with me!? Sorry, but I’m right on track! War is a racket and murder is wrong! It’s not “collateral damage,” as the professional liar, O-bomb-a, claims. Belief in such a morally-bankrupt concept requires a huge leap of faith in the religion of “government.” However, I’m not a Statist, but rather, a “political atheist,” so I DO NOT “bow to political gods”!

And, far from stupid, I’m actually very knowledgeable about US foreign policy, and world politics. My writing and art records speak for themselves! Meanwhile, a few days ago, America’s president authorized the bombing of a hospital in Afghanistan, killing an estimated 22 civilians, including members of “Doctors Without Borders,” which happened to win the Nobel Peace Prize in 1999.

So, you’re willing to dismiss PURE FACT as “nonsense,” while being pissed off that I posted the truth!? That’s your prerogative, but rest assured that I’m pissed off, too – pissed off that America’s War-Criminal-In-Chief, much like his bloodthirsty predecessor, continues to engage in yet another illegal, immoral War of aggression, while committing Crimes against humanity in his authorization of the maiming and murdering of civilians with drone bombs, as a matter of policy.
