Episode 608 – It’s a Start

Social media finally get condemned in a rather odd way.

Our military is falling apart.

And a hero goes to zero.

 

Kamalaisms

Here is an example that Kamala will never be a good President, a President for the people.

So, in other words, if my home and/or business are destroyed, I have to wait behind all the people of color, who had their home/business destroyed, because I’m white. This is so terribly racist, I can’t believe no one sees it. Do you wonder why Conservative media is waiting to slow play the aid that is needed in Florida, which is a mess right now. These people do not care about people. Only their political agendas. Suffering does not make one bit of difference if you are he wrong color, which is to say, white.

The lack of empathy from this woman and all these other people is pure evil.

Here is John Fetterman being mentally deficient which he thinks qualifies him to be a Senator.

Yeah, I don’t know what he is saying either. Neither does the MSNBC host. I’m not even going to try to figure it out.

 

Overreach But Right

In 2017, a girl named Molly Russell killed herself in London, England. This girl suffered from depression and there are signs she was bullied. The coroner ruled that what cause her death was social media. That is what was listed as the cause of death. Not swallowing poison, overdosing on drugs or slitting her wrists.

The inquest determined:

“The inquest has demonstrated very clearly the significant dangers social media platforms such as Instagram, Twitter and Pinterest present in the absence of any effective regulation. This shows that if government and tech platforms take action on the issues raised in the inquest, it will have a positive effect on the mental well-being of young people, which is the key aim of the Molly Rose Foundation.

“For social media, the Wild West era is over.”

The accusations focused on the platforms Instagram and Pinterest. Instagram is owned by Facebook, now called Meta.

Ian Russell, Molly’s father, said:

“Thank you, Molly, for being my daughter. Thank you, We should not be sitting here. This should not happen because it does not need to happen. We told this story in the hope that change would come about.”

Pinterest apologized, admitting that they would promote depression by showing those with depression “depression pins” which could be purchased. They would send the offers via E-mail.

According to Fox News:

Social media and video-sharing platforms contain content showing suicidal ideation, self-harm material and general reflections on depression, according to the U.K.’s National Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children (NSPCC). A teenager may view that kind of content on top of more mainstream material featuring videos and images of their peers, as well as influencers and models, which may prompt young users to make flawed comparisons between themselves and the material they view online.

“The ruling should send shockwaves through Silicon Valley – tech companies must expect to be held to account when they put the safety of children second to commercial decisions. The magnitude of this moment for children everywhere cannot be understated,” NSPCC Executive Director Sir Peter Wanless said in a statement. “Molly’s family will forever pay the price of Meta and Pinterest’s abject failure to protect her from content no child should see, but the Online Safety Bill is a once-in-a-generation opportunity to reverse this imbalance between families and big tech.”

Couple of things with this:

  • Good for the government. They finally figured out what social media companies have admitted to doing for the last 20 years. The configure their algorithms to addict people to their platforms.
  • The platforms do target people and their weaknesses, kind of like predators. We have known this for a while.
  • The governments will talk a lot but will do nothing about it. In fact, the reason I think they are doing this is to control social media companies. To get them to do what they want them to do. That’s cynical but we already knew all this stuff.
  • It is also a real stretch for a medical examiner to determine the cause of death as social media.
  • Finally, let’s not take all the blame off the parents. They allowed her to be on social media, knowing how vile it can be.

The reality is that social media, the Internet and smart phones do not belong in the hands of children. I will bet within the next couple of decades, smart phones and social media will have age limits. Kids need to be protected from the crap that is on the Internet. That includes these cultural icons that push sex, transsexualism, homosexuality and these stupid challenges. I do not think this crap should be banned (free speech is a bitch) but it should be filtered from our kids until they are old enough to make sense of it.

Probably Shouldn’t Have Gotten Rid of All Those Soldiers

This is disturbing news considering the world we are living in.

According to Fox News:

The Army fell about 15,000 soldiers — or 25% — short of its recruitment goal this year, officials confirmed Friday, despite a frantic effort to make up the widely expected gap in a year when all the military services struggled in a tight jobs market to find young people willing and fit to enlist.

While the Army was the only service that didn’t meet its target, all of the others had to dig deep into their pools of delayed entry applicants, which will put them behind as they begin the next recruiting year on Saturday.

The worsening problem stirs debate about whether America’s fighting force should be restructured or reduced in size if the services can’t recruit enough, and could also put added pressure on the National Guard and Reserve to help meet mission requirements.

Another problem the military is having is our embrace of fatphobia. Apparently, the military is having to excuse a lot of would-be soldiers because they are very out of shape. This is especially disturbing news because the military has eased their physical standards. You don’t need to be able to do ten pushups anymore and be able some of the more difficult core exercise for equity. Women can’t handle the physical standards that were in place before.

Wokeness is also killing them. All that Critical Race Theory crap that the military has been pushing the last couple of years is having dire consequences. If you believe in Critical Race Theory, you’ll never join the military because the military is there to defend the Constitution and Anti-Racists want to tear down the systems including the Constitutions.

Conservatives are more likely to join the military, but all these woke policies like CRT and Critical Gender Theory are turning would-be soldiers off. They don’t want to join because Conservatives see this as indoctrination.

What’s more of a turn off is the COVID policies. Don’t forget, after the last two years, the military was kicking soldiers out because they wouldn’t get the China virus jab, including special forces like Navy SEALS. Of course, that did slow down because they were losing too many specialists but it hasn’t stopped.

There are several lawsuits out there by career military suing the Biden administration for getting kicked out of the military over the jab. Suing the government and military is hard and the suits usually do not go through, but these suits have been allowed to go through and these will probably all go to the Supreme Court.

According to Fox News:

The U.S. Army is subjecting unvaccinated soldiers to punishments, including prohibiting off-base travel, halting promotions, and enforcing involuntary terminations from the service, which active-duty service members claim is a strategy to pressure them to abandon their deeply held religious beliefs.

An Army spokesperson confirmed to Fox News Digital that unvaccinated soldiers, including those without an approved religious accommodation exemption, are “subject to certain adverse administrative actions.”

“Soldiers who refuse the order to be vaccinated without an approved or pending exemption request are subject to certain adverse administrative actions, including flags, bars to continued service, and official reprimands (GOMORS),” said the spokesperson.

Would you like to join that military? I can’t see how this is legal and I expect more lawsuits with this crap.

Speaking of Woke

Several members of the Coast Guard made heroic efforts to save people via helicopter after Hurricane Ian passed through Florida. One of those Coast Guards is Technician Second Class Zach Loesch. These guys did such an amazing job that President Biden called them individually.

Here is the transcript to the call to Loesch:

“The President thanked them for saving lives and asked for a report on the work that continues to rescue Floridians. He also asked if they needed any additional support that he can provide to accelerate successful rescues; they indicated they have gotten what they need to execute their vital mission.”

Great! A hero gets a call from the President of the United States. What could be wrong?

Well, apparently, this guy won’t get the COVID jab and his religious objection was denied. He’s set to be discharged in 30 to 60 days.

Gee, and they wonder why their recruitment is down? This guy is flying around in 50 mile an hour winds, rescuing people and putting his own life in danger and our government wants to kick him out because he doesn’t want to take an untested shot. A shot that doesn’t do what it’s suppose to do. Don’t forget, Joe Biden has had around 73 shots and he got COVID twice.

You know, it’s hard enough for any institution to get and keep good people. Someone who is brave and is willing to risk himself for others. To have someone who is good and get rid of him because he will not get a shot is just idiotic.

You Won’t Hear About This

This is something you are not going to hear about because it goes against the LGBTQRSTUV#@~.

According to Breaking911 News:

A federal grand jury has returned an indictment charging Anna Gabrielian, age 36, and her husband, Jamie Lee Henry, age 39, both of Rockville, Maryland, with conspiracy and for the disclosure of individually identifiable health information (“IIHI”), related to their efforts to assist Russia in connection with the conflict in Ukraine. The indictment was returned on September 28, 2022 and unsealed today upon the arrest of the defendants.

Gabrielian is scheduled to have initial appearance at 11:30 a.m. today, in U.S. District Court in Baltimore before U.S. Magistrate Judge Brendan A. Hurson. Henry is also expected to have an initial appearance today, although a time has not yet been set.

Jamie Lee Henry is the first trans officer in the Army. Mind you, the guy is a transvestite so he just likes wearing women’s clothes. He was a major in the army.

So good job giving this guy a position in the military.

First openly trans Army officer charged in plot to give U.S. military medical info to Russia
