To celebration May Day and communism, leftists riot in Portland

Coming soon to a neighborhood near you! As part of their May Day celebration of communism, demonstrators in Portland decided to riot, burning buildings, throwing rocks, and attacking police.

It is amazing to me the increasing similarity between the techniques and goals of radical Islam and modern leftists. Both hate. Both use violence. Both oppose any dissent. You would think they were allies, though we all know that they would also kill each other if given the chance.

Genesis cover

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.
 

"Not simply about one mission, [Genesis] is also the history of America's quest for the moon... Zimmerman has done a masterful job of tying disparate events together into a solid account of one of America's greatest human triumphs."--San Antonio Express-News

    In Sweden, and surely throughout Europe and the world, many “demonstrators” carry North Korea’s flag when they march along with the governing party, the most popular in the country. Shouts like: “Murder all Americans! Death to USA! Death to Israel” are echoing the capital city all day long. Your enemy is EVERYWHERE outside your borders. Everyone hates Americans. At least the overwhelming majority in all so called free democratic nations. Slavery under communism (which has become islamism) is the by far prefered political alternative in public opinion.

    Both communism and Caliphate Revivalism are extremes of 2 separate waves of the same phenomenon, reaction against industrial society’s necessary freedoms of action to build and maintain the worldwide networks that industrial society consists of. The communists hate market freedoms of action, while the Caliphate Revivalists hate intellectual freedoms of action, but both are willing to suppress *all* industrial freedoms to suppress their particular bete noir.
