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

Pushback: Woman sues Antifa member for falsely saying she had criminal record

Today's modern witch hunt
A witch hunt: What Antifa considers reasonable political discourse.

Fight back twice as hard: Because Robin Patch attended a protest where she reported accurately the violence of Antifa, Antifa member Chad Loder responded by falsely slandering Patch on Twitter, falsely claiming she had a criminal record for “burglary + vandalism.”

Patch is now suing Loder in small claims court for $5,000.

In Patch’s lawsuit, she explicitly denies Loder’s claims that she is a criminal convict and has been on probation. “This is 100% false,” Patch wrote in the small claims complaint. “I have never had any criminal convictions, nor have I ever been on probation.” Patch wrote in the complaint that Loder blocked her on Twitter so that she could not directly respond to his posts.

“Mr. Loder made two consecutive tweets about me on July 8, 2021, which included personal information such as my (former) place of employment, home city, Instagram posts, LinkedIn profile and results from an outdated background check.”

According to her complaint, Loder’s slanders on Twitter caused her to lose a job.

The evidence clearly shows who is the real criminal here.

The Post Millennial has reviewed court documents on Patch and can independently confirm that she was never convicted of burglary or vandalism, or placed on probation. A 2019 domestic dispute case in Los Angeles involving Patch was dismissed. She otherwise has no criminal history in California.

Chad Loder calling for murder on Twitter
Click for thread.

Loder’s record of lies and violence however is long and ugly. He routinely doxxes his adversaries, has been accused of predatory behavior against women, has repeatedly expressed racist and antisemitic views, and has even called for the murder of his political opponents. The screen capture to the right illustrates a typical Loder call for violence and murder.

Loder’s tweets also tell us a great deal about Twitter, which banned the President of the United States for posting “mean tweets,” but finds nothing wrong with leftist Loder bluntly and repeatedly calling for violence and murder.

Whether Patch can win in court is questionable. Loder has avoided getting served for months, evading processors at least six times. The court date was delayed from April 14th to June 28th because of this. She is proceeding anyway, but even if she wins, it will likely be difficult to obtain satisfaction, as Loder will certainly act to hide his assets, and Patch can also expect little cooperation from California officials, who routinely let Antifa members get away with rioting and mayhem.

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

    Joe Biden is begging for money for all his industrial complex friends for a big payday, I know where he can get some…

    It’s crazy what some people just leave laying around…

    The radical Progressive of his day, 3370 years ago that is: https://www.ancient-egypt-online.com/akhenaten.html

    I happened to watch a historical program yesterday that depicted the Egyptian Pharo, Akhenaten “The Heretic Pharo” and I could not help but make the comparison between him and his radical at the time rejection of the status quo which made the Egyptian empire extremely wealthy, powerful and productive, and our radical “Progressives” in America today.

    Everything had to be destroyed and recast (“Fundamentally changed”) in his more better model and more sophisticated model. And in the end he essentially bankrupted the empire.

    And similar things like it has happened time after time throughout history.

    What is the only salvation that may allow us to go through this cycle and survive more or less intact? The Constitution, which is unique in history.

    But there are no guarantees.

    Whats old is new.

  • Cotour, the U.S. Constitution will have no effect since it is ignored or outright violated (i.e. “Disinformation Governance Board”). These people that have infiltrated our governments from local to national have no respect for the rule of law; they only want the rule of man to gain power over others.

  • Cotour

    Lots of parallels here:

    “During the Amarna times, plague spread through Egypt that brought famine and disease. It killed thousands and was the first ever recorded instance of an influenza epidemic.”

    Akhenaten was one of the first “Progressives” and the influenza epidemic, the precursor to Covid, that we are also so very now aware of also began in his time?

    Whats old really is new.

    BILLB:

    The Constitution is still in full force, although you may not fully recognize it because of how it has been stretched, perverted and corrupted in order to serve a particular political party’s interests.

    It, the Constitution, however, has been structured to withstand this kind of distortion and perversion and it, the Constitution, is the one thing that makes America unique in the world related to governance and the attempt to over time counterbalance the nature of man related to the abuse of power.

    There are no guarantees however and all potentials exist.

    As long as the people still serve their purpose in the Founders scheme to structure governance and those in politics must go to them for their political empowerment then there is still reason to be hopeful.

    When that condition is totally usurped then all will be lost, until then if and when that takes place the Constitution is working as designed. All more or less will be revealed to the public so they can comment and choose who and what leads the country.

    This “Disinformation Governance Board” or whatever they want to call it only further reveals the Democrat party machines desperation to pervert and control, and the people, most of them anyway see it for what it is.

    Sorry to disagree with you.

    I know it sounds counterintuitive to a rational person but what I described is what is ongoing.

    I’ll venture a modest (and low risk guess) that many of these Antifa movers & shakers are trust fund babies. Hide their assets? Already hidden.
