A lot of MAGA is rooted in evangelical and authoritarian psychology. There's supposed to be a natural order: white at the top, Christian at the top, male at the top, straight at the top.
Government-backed plans to reshape England’s countryside are drawing fresh scrutiny, as officials move to make it more “diverse,” amid a recent history of anti-white policies in the United Kingdom. Authorities overseeing National Landscapes, formerly known as “Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty,” are revising long-standing management strategies after internal reviews concluded that these areas risk appearing out of touch with a “modern Britain.”
The concern, according to the woke planners, is that the countryside is widely viewed as a space dominated by white, middle-class visitors. Planners for the Malvern Hills openly complained that the area is seen as a place where “most white English users value the solitude and contemplative activities which the countryside affords.” However, they claim that “the tendency for ethnic minority people is to prefer social company (family, friends, schools).”The plan further claims: “Many minority peoples have no connection to nature in the UK because their parents and their grandparents did not feel safe enough to take them or had other survival preoccupations.”
The push is not solely a product of the current leftist Labour government, with the groundwork being laid under the formerly governing Conservatives beginning in 2019. At that time, a series of government-commissioned reports warned that the countryside was being perceived as “an exclusive, mainly white, mainly middle-class club” and risked ending up “being irrelevant to the country that actually exists.”
Proposed remedies include targeted outreach to minority communities, revised marketing campaigns, multilingual signage, and policy changes designed to remove what planners describe as cultural or practical obstacles to participation—for instance, imposing restrictions on dog owners, to make Muslims who regard the animals as “unclean” more comfortable.

When you've been at the top of a hierarchy your whole life, equality feels like oppression. Giving others a seat at the table feels like theft.
The only thing that works is making it socially and politically costly to be part of it. Outvoting them. Out-organizing them. And building something better that gives people a different place to belong.
And cluster bombs and Napalm. I wonder what else we could get away with?
If you needed an example of the disconnect between legacy media and the country at large, look no further than “Melania.”
...
The critics HATE it, giving it a lousy score of just 10%, according to Rotten Tomatoes (compare that with the 93% score critics gave the 2020 documentary “Becoming” about former first lady Michelle Obama).
Yet, the Americans heading to the theater to watch “Melania” have a vastly different takeaway. They’ve given it a score of 99%.
This discrepancy has broken the film rating site's 27-year record.
...
Think of the critic-audience divide on this documentary as a microcosm of the chasm between how the legacy media treats President Donald Trump and how much of the country views him.

“Melania” was released widely on Jan. 30 and, in its opening weekend, smashed expectations, earning at least $7 million. That’s the best opening for a documentary in more than a decade.
Jeff Bock, senior media analyst for Exhibitor Relations, told USA TODAY ahead of the film’s release that anything over $1 million would be “a huge number” and would indicate “a lot of folks who don't normally go to the movies went to this.”

I doubt the media will learn anything from “Melania.” But if they were willing to glean something, it should be that marketing to conservatives – and the 77 million Americans who voted for Trump – can pay off.
. More telling, maybe, is the canyon between critics' comments, which were obviously knee-jerkingly Hate-Trump (some admitting not having seen what they denigrated), and comments from ordinary people who actually did see the movie (and might not be willing to lie-for-the-cause).A major Los Angeles teachers union is reportedly choosing to brainwash students into hating federal immigration officers instead of educating them, possibly even directly encouraging illegal behavior.
Defending Education released a report on Tuesday, February 10, exposing United Teachers of Los Angeles (UTLA) planning documents and materials that seemingly lobby for using school resources as part of a campaign to demonize and interfere with Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officers arresting illegal alien criminals. The union argued that the school resources can be a “form of resistance” against ICE when they are used to help “engag[e] students in community self-defense.” The union even wanted to offer “service learning hours” for borderline or outright illegal protest activities.
When UTLA referred to “community self-defense,” what it really meant was defying ICE. By the way, ICE is not raiding schools. If any children are deported, it is almost certainly because their parents are being deported, and illegal alien parents can choose to have their children come with them. The documents do acknowledge the possibility of school staff being arrested, which seems to indicate they have hired illegal aliens. Notably, EdSource states that the Los Angeles Unified School District’s (LAUSD) average for proficiency in math is about 36% and 46% in English
...
Teachers were supposed to lead “discussions with students” and provide “know your rights” training, a deceptively titled set of propaganda points that falsely assert illegal aliens have constitutional rights. UTLA planned to bring in unnamed agencies to discuss how to protect illegal aliens and how to organize to support aliens already arrested.
Defending Education explained:QuoteCaptured images of planning notes seem to advocate for the use of professional development time to “make door hanger immigration kits: w/ pro bono lawyers, affidavits, KYR, etc – distribute,” “engaging students in community self-defense – offer service learning hours,” using school budgets to “buy bullhorns, whistles,” using “security cameras to monitor” for ICE agents, and the use of “phone trees – rapid response/ communication at the school level” such as the “Signal App” to alert to ICE presence.
Well since our side has the most guns and in reality, the most military trained people then I welcome their revolution. Tey will see the definition of FAFO. I mean if it is civilians against civilians in a civil war then the Geneva Convention and the rules of Land Warfare are not likely to apply.
