Readers!

 

The time has come for my annual short Thanksgiving/Christmas fund drive for Behind The Black. I must do this every year in order to make sure I have earned enough money to pay my bills.

 

For this two-week campaign, I am offering a special deal to encourage donations. Donations of $200 will get a free autographed copy of the new paperback edition of Genesis: The Story of Apollo 8, while donations of $250 will get a free autographed copy of the new hardback edition. If you desire a copy, make sure you provide me your address with your donation.

 

As I noted in July, the support of my readers through the years has given me the freedom and ability to analyze objectively the ongoing renaissance in space, as well as the cultural changes -- for good or ill -- that are happening across America. Fourteen years ago I wrote that SLS and Orion were a bad ideas, a waste of money, would be years behind schedule, and better replaced by commercial private enterprise. Only now does it appear that Washington might finally recognize this reality.

 

In 2020 when the world panicked over COVID I wrote that the panic was unnecessary, that the virus was apparently simply a variation of the flu, that masks were not simply pointless but if worn incorrectly were a health threat, that the lockdowns were a disaster and did nothing to stop the spread of COVID. Only in the past year have some of our so-called experts in the health field have begun to recognize these facts.

 

Your help allows me to do this kind of intelligent analysis. I take no advertising or sponsors, so my reporting isn't influenced by donations by established space or drug companies. Instead, I rely entirely on donations and subscriptions from my readers, which gives me the freedom to write what I think, unencumbered by outside influences.

 

Please consider supporting my work here at Behind the Black. You can support me either by giving a one-time contribution or a regular subscription. There are four ways of doing so:

 

1. Zelle: This is the only internet method that charges no fees. All you have to do is use the Zelle link at your internet bank and give my name and email address (zimmerman at nasw dot org). What you donate is what I get.

 

2. Patreon: Go to my website there and pick one of five monthly subscription amounts, or by making a one-time donation.
 

3. A Paypal Donation or subscription:

 

4. Donate by check, payable to Robert Zimmerman and mailed to

You can also support me by buying one of my books, as noted in the boxes interspersed throughout the webpage or shown in the menu above.


1-in-5 Democrats and 1-in-3 women Democrats think men can get pregnant

The uncertainty of science? An online survey has found that large numbers of self-described Democrats now believe that it is possible for a man to give birth to babies.

The online survey, conducted by WPA Intelligence from August 22-25, found 22% of Democrats agreed with the statement, “Some men can get pregnant.” The percentage rose when only including women, and a whopping 36% of white, college-educated female Democrats concurred. [emphasis mine]

There is no uncertainty here. Men cannot get pregnant, and to believe it is possible tells us that you are either insane, or utterly disconnected from the real world.

The highlighted words underline the madness that is overtaking our intellectual upper classes. More than one-third of college educated Democrat women believe this. No wonder these same people wear masks, get triple and quadruple COVID jabs, and want any evidence that they are wrong censored with the speakers blackballed. They have become so divorced from reality that to even let a peep of it enter their brains will cause their heads to explode.

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 print edition can be purchased at Amazon. from any other book seller, or direct from my ebook publisher, ebookit. 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

    Almost as bad as republicans who believe whatever Trump says….

  • pzatchok

    Just like global warmers.

    If enough believe it it must be true.

    And Nunya.
    Please point out those who do exactly that.

    One of my favorite memes: Biden’s Assistant Secretary for Health Rachel (born Richard ) Levine with the text “You must accept the science”

    All hail science!!!!

  • Cotour

    Yeah, sure.

    And if you ask them if they agree with abortion up to the moment of birth they will in the same numbers or higher agree.

    Right. (They are full of crap, and they are being intellectually dishonest and toting the party line. Total CRAP!)

    Draw the rational (If possible) line, use this graphic chart to help you. They are all liars.

    Oh, and this meme also featuring “Rachel”

    Now That! Is a good lookin “Woman”.

    But not a good lookin woman. Sorry, there is a difference, and no number of contortions can make it otherwise.

    And I have no animosity against “her” for being differently oriented, none whatsoever. I wish “her” well.

    Just remember: Political Correctness kills everyone who chooses to delude themselves.

    Why? Because it does not reflect real reality. And if you choose to ignore real reality you have condemned yourself to an early death, you will be eaten.

  • Cotour

    Just teach mutual respect and not hatred, racism and retribution.

    But the radical Left among us (D) don’t do that, they promote and teach the exact opposite.

    And that is where the Left, the Democrats among us attempt to maintain their hold on political power, and it is pure Marxist doctrine.

    “1-in-5 Democrats and 1-in-3 women Democrats think men can get pregnant.”

    1-in-5 = 20% male/female
    1-in-3 = 33% female

    2/3rds of that 20% are Democrat males that think they can get pregnant.

    I would imagine that anatomy/biology is no longer taught in schools.

    Nuke the teacher unions.

  • David

    Was it a scientific poll or just an uncontrolled online survey? The Daily Caller article doesn’t say unless I overlooked something.

    Wonder how my fellow Republicans would have faired…

  • Cotour

    David:

    It does not matter what format or controls were involved in this survey, its ALL crap, its all lies by weak minded humans who are a direct threat to themselves and all others.

    Lies, and when questioned for 2 minutes that fact is revealed.

    I know, I have done multiple times in the real world.

  • Cotour

    And here is an example of just how unserious these people are:

    “Meet Joe Biden’s National Monkeypox Response Deputy Coordinator”

    https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/wp-content/uploads/IMG_7459-1.jpg

    Why these what appear to me to be damaged in a multiple of ways people believe that it is essential that they bring their sexuality into their workplace is but one more example of just how self-centered and operating in another reality.

    Your “Progressive” and Politically Correct”? Then you are a danger to yourself and others.

    What you do in your private life is your business and having the need to bring your sexuality into your job environment, especially if you are a teacher who is compelled to do so and involve young children is an illness IMO.

    Grown adults of any orientation looking to children to validate their lifestyle or sexuality and in an attempt to indoctrinate them into accepting it is a form of pedophilia IMO.

    And that is what the parents of America are witness to and they I suspect will be commenting strongly on the issue in the coming midterm elections.

    I think that is certain. (That is unless the level of technology involved in our election systems in key states is compromised, which is a reasonable expectation. By any means necessary means just that. Up to and including murder)

    Remember, they are “the party of science” as opposed to the ignorant, fools who believe in myth and lies

  • Edward

    Col Beausabre,
    You wrote: “Remember, they are ‘the party of science’ as opposed to the ignorant, fools who believe in myth and lies

    But, they are following The Science. Here is an exhaustive list of The Science papers proving once and for all, despite thousands of years of actual experience, that men can not only get pregnant but can give live birth to babies:

  • “Just teach mutual respect . . ”

    Hey, that used to be a thing. If you look at the American and Western political landscape, it is astonishing how quickly in-your-face intolerance has replaced the Progressive finger-waving ‘tolerance’. The past several years have seen an asymptotic increase in Government power grabs. All of the Economy must be under our control. Natural processes (and this is one) tend to follow natural log curves, and, hoo boy, are we on the steep part of this one.

    The wave will crest and break, and another Age of Benightment will follow. Problem is, this time there will be a lot fewer natural resources to dig ourselves out with.

  • Almost as bad as republicans who believe whatever Trump says….

    Well, many Europeans are worse off today for not listening to Trump’s warnings about becoming dependent upon Russia for their energy.

    https://thefederalist.com/2022/07/22/trump-was-right-about-europes-dangerous-dependence-on-russian-energy/

    And we are worse off today, because Joe Biden didn’t listen to Trump on energy and immigration policy, going out of his way to do the opposite of what Trump recommended and implemented because Orange Man Bad.

    SINCE 1973 – THE YEAR JOE BIDEN ENTERED THE SENATE – OPEC HAD THE WORLD ON A CHAIN.

    PRESIDENT TRUMP BROKE THAT CHAIN.

    JOE BIDEN IS PUTTING US BACK ON THAT CHAIN,

  • Cotour

    Blair:

    The Left / Democrat party machine must have division and clearly drawn tribal lines and they accomplish that by teaching racism, retribution and hatred. Hatred is the Lefts legacy.

    Teach mutual respect? An outrage!

    The only answer is that the people rise up and rectify it all as best as they can over time.

    And we wait.

  • David

    Well, after a review of WPA Intelligence site and information on their clients, payments, etc., I think I see why the “poll” only focused on D’s. Their clients appear to be largely R’s. Which is completely fine of course, but that was not noted in the Daily Wire article or here.

    BTW, WPAi site has parts that may not be secure, which is most curious to say the least. Or so my browser kept warning.

    Still don’t know the answer to my questions. Was it a real poll or simply an uncontrolled, unscientific survey of little practical use other than to generate ‘clicks’ and attention? Why only D’s (or respondents who identified as D)? What about R’s or I’s?

    Than again, I’m not a journalist.

  • sippin_bourbon

    They know the truth, but they parrot the Latest Thing, because they have to.

    I believe the term that is appropriate is “useful idiot”.
