ISIS files “cultural appropriation” complaint against ANTIFA with UN
Link here. The complaint, from ISIS High Command (“somewhere along the Syria-Iraq border”), begins as follows:
As you may know, there is a new category of outrage that “social justice warriors” the world over are fighting to stop: “cultural appropriation.” Loosely defined, this outrage occurs whenever a person, group or organization begins adopting the habits and mannerisms that originate elsewhere…. In this vein, we are writing to file a formal complaint with the UNHRC’s Committee on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights, regarding a matter that we consider most serious: the fact that the recently-organized, global “ANTIFA” movement has:
(1) Culturally appropriated what is clearly ISIS’s trademark black uniforms
(2) Culturally appropriated the terror-tactics we employ while wearing these uniforms
They then provide documented evidence, including photos, and then note, “Now, if you were to see one or the other of these groups marching down your street, would you be able to determine, at a glance, if they are with ISIS, or ANTIFA?”
Their solution?
You might mention to the ANTIFA punks that in quite a few aspects, we are at war with the very same people, organizations and ideas, and, in fact, Western civilization itself. So, if you could arrange a sit-down over tea with us, and them, it might serve all of our interests, and provide a holistic, inclusive resolution to our complaint. Thanks!
Makes perfect sense to me. I mean, really, these guys all seem to have the same goals.
On Christmas Eve 1968 three Americans became the first humans to visit another world. What they did to celebrate was unexpected and profound, and will be remembered throughout all human history. Genesis: the Story of Apollo 8, Robert Zimmerman's classic history of humanity's first journey to another world, tells that story, and it is now available as both an ebook and an audiobook, both with a foreword by Valerie Anders and a new introduction by Robert Zimmerman.
The ebook is available everywhere for $5.99 (before discount) at amazon, or direct from my ebook publisher, ebookit. If you buy it from ebookit you don't support the big tech companies and the author gets a bigger cut much sooner.
The audiobook is also available at all these vendors, and is also free with a 30-day trial membership to Audible.

@Robert
The original article has [Satire] in its title, and is not a news report. Someone who just read your site and din’t read the linked article could think that you were reporting this as actual news.

oh, come on. have a little faith in your critical thinking skills!
Meanwhile, this is not a parody….

On the other hand…. this is parody.

Des: I actually thought about this, and decided that the story was good satire, and good satire does not need to be labeled as such. It is obvious, on its face, that it isn’t actually true, though what it describes captures an aspect of reality perfectly.
And if they are fooled, than it only serves to prove the point of the satire even more so.
Too, too funny. But it might as well be true seeing the extent these people on the left are being forced to push their agenda.
As long as we are going down the crazy road lets have a national law passed that bans anyone from wearing any type pf mask or face covering or any type of protective equipment during any protest. And while we are at it lets ban any black clothing (It makes me feel uncomfortable and it all intimidated me).
As a matter of fact lets pass a law where you can not receive a permit to protest unless the protest is done in the nude, or at least in your underwear. Result? An end to all violent protests.
Yes, I chuckled, but it’s really not funny at all. “It’s not wrong when we do it.”
Ironic: ἀνίστημι => to rise (again), to rise against => resist in peace
But, “the way of peace they do not know.”
Hard to be an optimist these days.
This is how real change happens, its the chaos before the order.
However, it is not certain what that “change” will be in the end. The interests, governmental, corporate and ideological we are seeing and discussing here are powerful and deeply embedded and are for the most part Amoral and have no patriotic alliances as we, the pedestrian American’s have.
(IMO) In the big picture there are massive powers within our own government that have been driving us all towards fulfilling the “Globalization” agenda. These Globalization agendas, not to be confused with Global trade or similar terms, is a drive that in its conclusion demands that America basically hollow’s out its Constitution and surrender its sovereignty to a One World type Global government ala G. Bush seniors (Former CIA director) clearly laid out dream. And if you step back you will observe the fulfillment of that agenda by both party’s DNC and RNC leadership and presidents of both party’s, one in the same for the most part.
Trump appears to resist this agenda by daring to say things like ” I will do things that are in America’s interests”, actually move in that direction. Outrageous!
Laurie, stay calm.
Cotour–
-have to disagree on the [this is how real change happens] thought, way too French Revolution-esque for me!

Wayne, there are very few absolute statements that can be made, “There will be change” is one of them.
You may not like the change, but it will come. That’s why the battle is so important, without it there will not be any counter balancing forces which to direct it in the direction that is preferred.
