    Big Al, I agree with you that people of notoriety, who feel it is hip or cool to be vulgar, profane, and mean spirited are to a degree responsible for the demise in our culture because people in our society who desire to copy the famous in Hollywood and elsewhere, mindlessly duplicate that which is demeaning in the culture.

    Language, cruelty, dress, attitudes, and behaviors are symptoms of a moral slide. We are sliding down to Gomorrah rather then ascending up to nobility and righteousness. It is a sad commentary on our day.

      Well said, Pardu.

      Could any of this happen without the mass media (hollywood, music, video games, porn)?

      Does anyone dispute who controls the mass media?

      If you grant that the mass media is a key problem, then we have a dilemma: how do we resolve the problem when the perpetrators turn the first amendment to their agenda? I’m pretty sure the first amendment did not anticipate domination of the press and popular culture by a hostile alien elite.

        In a history and poli-sci class in college decades ago, someone raised a question about the influence of Soviet propaganda on a certain event. The professor’s answer was short and to the point: “The intellectual capacity of the press in this country is such that they can be influenced by propagandists.”

      May 03, 2018 03:41 PM

      I com[letely agreee Pardu. Notice her dress. Really sophisticated isn’t it?

        May 04, 2018 04:46 AM

        I think that’s a standard publicity shot for her standup routine. In what clips I saw from the WHCD, she appeared to be wearing a dress.

    I agree the comedy at the corespondents dinner was not funny . Next year i hope the just have a humorist , not a so called comedian . That said i hope mike pence is already making plans for a sane and rational transition. At least he doest tweet and talk all the time. love to you all S

      Do you know much is from heroin vs how much from synthetic opioids Johnk?

        May 03, 2018 03:24 PM

        Heroin alone is 1 every 23 minutes.
        Years ago on National Public Radio, I heard that one out of every four Iranian men are addicted to Heroin.
        I’m sure if we can just get some decent comedians, everything will be just fine.

      https://www.nationalreview.com/corner/jerusalem-capital-israel-middle-eastern-christians-united-states-foreign-policy-trump-administration/

      “Christian leaders in the Middle East oppose U.S. recognition of Jerusalem as Israel’s capital.”

      “in Iraq, where they backed Saddam Hussein because they found some protection under his relatively secular regime, and then we saw it in Syria, where they back Assad for parallel reasons.”

      “Last summer an Eastern Orthodox priest with roots in Lebanon and the Palestinian territories and with connections to Damascus explained to me his view of the proxy war, as he saw it, in Syria. On one side were Saudi Arabia, the United States, and Israel. On the other side, Iran, Hezbollah, and Russia. The second side happened to be good for the Christians, although they were not its focus, just as for the most part they were collateral damage, not the target, for the forces arrayed against Assad.”

      May 03, 2018 03:00 PM

      GH, I personally have some serious questions about what is going on in the entire Middle East. A number of my close friends feel similar to Bob M. One said just today in answering my question about Israel. He said that: “Israel is just a proxy for the U.S.”

      I have to say that this interview was very interesting and certainly thought provoking. I would say that I am not an expert on the Middle East. A lot of folks who I know are however Middle Eastern experts. On taught Middle Eastern History at Stanford the university from where he got his PhD. He says to me that the “Arabs” are truly not the bad guys.

        GH
        May 04, 2018 04:28 AM

        It seems we are on the verge of an erasure of Christians from the Middle East as a result of terrorism and the Zio/Anglo/American wars–the culmination of the Donmeh Jew-led Armenian genocide of a century ago.

        A good case may be made that the terrorism is primarily Zio/Anglo/American at root, as well.

        I’m sure American Christians would be aghast if they understood the role they are playing in the destruction of Christianity. But it is very hard to get them to understand it, as JohnK’s quote just below expresses perfectly.

    May 03, 2018 03:05 PM

    “Even the most intelligent people can very seldom discern even the simplest and most obvious truth if it be such as to oblige them to admit the falsity of conclusions they have formed,perhaps with much difficulty-conclusions of which they are proud,which they have taught to others,and on which they have built their lives.”- Tolstoy –

    So the woman was vulgar, anyone see Maclain and Maclain about 25 years ago?
    I called it “toilet humour”, I dont see how comedy could be any worse.
    Maybe the shows that show people hurting themselves, especially kids, but as comedy shows, nothing could get worse than Maclain and Maclain.

    The only person I know of that really was not offensive to anyone was red skelton.

    “Every conclusion arrived at as a result of study of the fragments of information available in respect to money and its creators in the world of the Ancient Civilizations, indicates the existence of a far reaching conspiracy in respect to monetary issuance influencing the progression of man’s history in the earliest times of which written record exists. It is also outstandingly clear that it was parent to that acknowledged and most obvious conspiracy such as exists today. Hence was able to develop that conspiracy against mankind most exemplified by a continuous propaganda of hate against all authority: in pre-antiquity and antiquity against the many city gods, and in relatively modern times against the kings that rose out of the ruins of that which had been Rome. As those controlling totally the economic life of a state through monetary creation and emission, must have felt that kings and gods were more of a nuisance than anything else, the instigators of this conspiracy in whatever place and era, obviously were those who first did the business of bankers; the controllers of values, and consequently the economic life of the states wherever the precious metal standard was used.”

        Al, it would be very interesting for you to interview Richie Allen and Greg Hunter on the topics of fake news and the ‘alternate media’. They both worked in mainstream media, as I understand, and both now produce their own programs.

        It seems a near certainty that attacks on freedom of speech, online censorship, viability of alternate media online, etc. will continue in a sustained uptrend. How can the alternative media defend against attacks, up to and including an ‘internet kill switch’? A low-bandwidth, decentralized internet via radio transmitters is possible, I believe.

        Internet security expert Paul Rosenberg would also be very interesting.

      I want to echo JohnK about paying for news.

      Mainstream media is funded by massive advertising dollars. The product being sold isn’t the news to the viewer, it’s the viewer to the advertisers.

      Subscription media may truly serve its readership.

      Supporting a few of one’s favorite free alternate media who work on a shoestring is also a worthy use of funds.
