Enough fawning over the Pope. HE WAS A RABID COMMUNIST TOTALITARIAN ENVIROFASCIST. He was not special.

Leftism — socialism, Communism, fascism disguised as New Age sweetness — is for morally and intellectually gullible people. They believe the media, because the media anchors are pretty, dress nicely and have that little nod when they talk to the cameras. Without the media, leftism would not exist. Democrat voters who absorb the media fallacies swallow the narrative of socialism for all (except rich, connected Democrats). They swallow the narrative that the sky is falling, and that unless all stoves and cars are electric by 2030 (except for the stoves and cars of rich Democrats), we are all going to die. They swallowed the narrative of COVID, “peaceful” protesters and the Biden economic boom (i.e., the start of hyperinflation). They buy it all because they are gullible, naive, and the sort of people who always have a chip on their shoulders about something, and think that leftists (as opposed to people who think, not just feel) are the ones who “get it.” Leftism is stupid and toxic. When they finally go all the way (as they nearly did under puppet Biden), and as they hope to do in the upcoming midterms and the coronation of someone like Gavin or AOC in 2029, it’s not going to be funny or annoying anymore.

According to the news media, the economy is collapsing. For one reason (they claim): Trump tariffs. I don’t see evidence of a collapse. I see a little improvement, since Biden left office, with lower gas prices and maybe a bit of inflation reduction. Yet I also read that every country but China buckled to Trump’s tariff strategy. As a result, we have lower tariffs or no tariffs. Only China held out; and now they are starting to cave. China has no choice. Without the ability to trade with America, China collapses. America can fend for itself without a totalitarian Communist regime that treats its citizens like slaves. Shame on America for ever doing business with Communist China’s regime in the first place. Let China become a free market, and let America become MORE of a free market, without the regulations, taxes and welfare state. THEN free trade will triumph. But only then. Unless you have free countries, THERE IS NO FREE TRADE.
