DC Comics is finding itself under increasing pressure from the POX thanks to its SJWs:

Justice League star Ray Fisher launched a fresh volley of tweets against Warner Bros. and DC Films on Saturday following news of a new Superman project with a high-profile Black writer.

Fisher, 33, reiterated his claims that DC Films President Walter Hamada had tried to ‘destroy’ his ‘credibility,’ before implying that the new Superman movie was a ploy to distract fans from his allegations against Justice League’s replacement director Joss Whedon.

‘Do ya’ll remember that time Walter Hamada and @wbpictures tried to destroy a Black man’s credibility, and publicly delegitimize a very serious investigation, with lies in the press?’ the actor began his furious tweet.

‘But hey, Black Superman…,’ he added, suggesting fans’ attention would be diverted by the new project.

On Friday, it was announced that the acclaimed essayist and novelist Ta-Nehisi Coates would be writing a new Superman film, which is rumored to feature a Black Superman.

Coates has been acclaimed for his journalism at The Atlantic, which often focused on the impact of racism on Black Americans, but in recent years he has expanded from non-fiction to writing comic books and publishing his debut novel.

Then when Ta-Nehisi’s script is rejected, or is as more likely, is completely rewritten by the usual suspects, the high-profile Black writer will denounce the racism inherent in the project, and if the film ever gets filmed, it will bomb, which failure will also be denounced as racism.

Given how SJWs have destroyed both Marvel and DC’s comics business, and the Star Wars film franchise, don’t assume they will be unable to take down first DC’s, then Marvel’s film franchises too. And in the case of the latter, Disney overpaying for ten years of a converged and declining NFL is going to hasten the process.

Remember when I warned you that the battle for Western civilization was also, among other things, the choice between indoor plumbing and living in filth? That wasn’t rhetoric:

For decades, residents of Centreville, a nearly all-Black town of 5,000 in southern Illinois, just a 12-minute drive from downtown East St Louis, have been dealing with persistent flooding and sewage overflows. The smell of it is in the air all over town after a rain, and bits of soggy toilet paper and slicks of human waste cling to the grass in neighborhoods where children used to play on warm days, locals said. Kids don’t play outside any more. Gardens don’t grow.

Like Smith, other locals say their water tastes odd and refuse to drink from their taps, relying on donated shipments of bottled water. They worry about the long-term health effects of living under such conditions, and they say that for years elected officials and local utility companies inadequately addressed their cries for help.

Residents and environmental justice advocates also believe that these issues persist because the town is one of the poorest in America, with a median household income of less than $15,000 a year and almost half of residents living below the poverty line. They contend that authorities at the local and state level might have addressed wastewater problems long ago if the area was wealthier and more influential.

Though Centreville was once a larger town, it has lost more than half its population and nearly all its white inhabitants since 1970. Surrounding towns saw a similar shift, as local manufacturing jobs disappeared. The people of color who remain in Centreville are stuck with ageing infrastructure meant for a denser population – and the local government now has a much smaller tax base to draw from for upgrades.

The conditions that Centreville’s residents live with are “shocking”, said Catherine Flowers, an environmental justice campaigner who co-authored a 2019 study on raw sewage issues in low-income communities across the US. Flowers hails from central Alabama, where many households lack proper plumbing and rivers of wastewater flow through back yards. “The Centreville problem ranks as one of the worst I have seen,” she said. In Centreville, she noted, the “sewage is in plain sight”.

Non-Western civilizations simply don’t object to filth in the same way white Christian populations do. It’s a combination of factors, and the reasons differ from one to the next, but the fact is that once you remove the three pillars of the West from a society, one inevitable consequence is dwelling in filth, not just moral, but literal.

One resident says: “‘If white people were still here, this wouldn’t happen.” That’s true. Because the white people wouldn’t put up with it, the white people would fix it. There are 5,000 people living there and absolutely none of them are willing and able to do anything about it.

That’s the inevitable fate of the post-Christian, post-white former West.

It’s going to be informative to see how many of those Hollywood actresses and “I have a black son” cuckservatives don’t live to see retirement courtesy of their adoptive virtue-signaling showpieces.

A judge in Madison, Wisconsin, has set $1 million bail for two teenagers charged with the execution-style murders of a respected doctor and an education coach.

During the early morning hours of March 31, two joggers came upon the bodies of Dr. Beth Potter and her husband, Robin Carre, lying off the roadway in the University of Wisconsin Arboretum and covered in blood, police said. A witness told the University of Wisconsin-Madison Police Department that they had heard a series of gunshots after 11 p.m. the night before.

Carre, 57, was pronounced dead at the scene as Potter, 52, was taken to a nearby hospital where she later died. Both were shot in the head and were left for dead in their house clothes with no shoes, according to the criminal complaint.

Investigators conducted several interviews that led them to arrest and charge Khari Sanford, the boyfriend of the couple’s adopted daughter, and Sanford’s friend Ali’Jah Larrue with two counts of first-degree murder.

I don’t ever recall hearing about an adopted Korean girl murdering her adoptive parents and I knew several of them growing up in the 70s and 80s. Apparently this newer adoption craze is a little more dangerous.

UPDATE: It gets better. These virtue-signaling lunatics actually invited their murderer to live with them and their “daughter” just weeks before he killed them.

Court papers show that Potter recently kicked Mimi and Sanford out of their $600,000 home just blocks from the university campus because the teens refused to follow her rules for social distancing during the health crisis. They had taken Sanford in to live with them a few weeks earlier. He had previously been in foster care.

Stellar parenting. It would require a heart of stone not to laugh at these dead morons. But at least they will have the satisfaction of knowing that no one will ever be able to call them racist. I’m sure that gave them real comfort when they were being dragged barefoot from their home at gunpoint prior to being shot in the head.

 According to Fake President-Elect Joe Biden, anyhow:

This country is doomed. It’s doomed, not just because of African-Americans, but because by 2040, this country is going to be minority white-European. You hear me? And you guys are going to have to start working more with Hispanics. Who make up a larger portion of population than y’all do!

That sound you just heard was every globalist financier and Big Tech CEO trying to call Scalia’s pillow guy. As I’ve said previously, both Kamala Harris and Ezra Cohen-Watkin have a better chance of being the next president than Joe Biden. At this point, Rachel Fulton Brown has a better chance.

What is Minneapolis?

Minneapolis has suffered a surge in crime that has coincided with a severe shortage of police officers. Undeterred, City Council members want to make further cuts to law enforcement.

Police have registered a 537-percent increase in violent carjackings in the city compared with last November, the local Star Tribune reported. More than 125 such crimes have been recorded over the past two months, with three separate carjackings reported within a one-hour period on Saturday morning. One of the victims, an elderly woman, was struck on the head by her assailants. 

“The numbers are staggering,” a Minneapolis police spokesperson told the paper. “It defies all civility and any shred of common human decency.”

Authorities have blamed the crime wave on “small groups of marauding teens,” but acknowledged that adults have also been arrested in connection to the string of carjackings. The surge in this type of attack has prompted the city’s police force to create a new coding system to help keep track of the criminal acts. The spree of carjackings isn’t the only public safety crisis facing the city: An analysis by the Star Tribune in September found that violent crimes – including homicide, rape, robbery and aggravated assaults – were up 17 percent from the previous five-year average for this period….

Despite the crime surge and personnel shortage, a trio of City Council members, including Council President Lisa Bender, have submitted a proposal that would cut the Minneapolis police budget by nearly $8 million. 

If you think diversity is bad in your community now, just wait until it is in a position to take over and start running things. It really shouldn’t surprise anyone that rule by third worlders, even if only by SJW proxy, looks suspiciously like the Third World.

UPDATE: an email from a Minneapolis resident.

One of my employees got carjacked last night at gunpoint when pulling into her parking garage down by Loring Park in Minneapolis. Stole her Mercedes, company laptop, and one client file. She’s ok, extremely shaken up. Minneapolis is totally out of control. Happening every day now, sometimes three per day. They tracked car on Mercedes app from her phone, police chased them twice, found them walking. One had car key fob in their pocket; police told her they could not prosecute based on this. Said if she wanted to pursue fingerprinting of her car, it would take weeks, and they’d need to keep it for that duration, due to being backed up in police department. Physically, she’s ok, mentally, she’s a wreck. Fuckers are going to walk.

It’s much worse than it even seems.  When I go downtown for meetings, it has to be before noon and still it’s an eerie & dangerous place.  

Jason Whitlock knows what will happen to his people if they turn away from God:

The stewards of the zeitgeist — i.e. the spirit, mood, characteristics of a particular time in history — have persuaded black people to pursue blackness above all else, above faith, intelligence and freedom. 

I object. Passionately. 

This blinding, irrational pursuit is leading to the destruction of black people and the destabilization of our country.

I object because I love black people, I love America and I love God.

I do not love the stewards of the zeitgeist, and they do not love me or any other black person who would dare object to their racist manipulation of black consciousness and black culture. 

The root of my disdain is biblical. Sixty years ago, the hallmark of black culture was religious faith. It carried us through slavery, Jim Crow segregation, lynching and was the power source of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.’s Civil Rights Movement. 

In 1965, political sociologist Daniel Patrick Moynihan authored what would come to be known as the Moynihan Report, a study of The Negro Family: The Case for National Action. Written to influence President Lyndon Johnson’s policies regarding America’s black-white racial dilemma, the 16,000-word Moynihan Report spelled out the devastating impact of 350 years of racial oppression on the black family. It predicted that the growing matriarchy defining black culture would undermine the progress of black people in a Western society built for patriarchal families.

Today, the Moynihan Report reads like a biblical prophecy. Fifty-five years ago, Moynihan argued black people’s survival in America was a modern miracle.

“A lesser people might simply have died out, as indeed others have,” Moynihan wrote. 

We didn’t die out because of our religious faith, the world’s primary source of hope. Faith in a higher power made our spirit unbreakable.

The Moynihan Report was written to make the case that America should take extraordinary measures to invest in the black nuclear family. It was written as a rebuttal of President Johnson’s Great Society initiative. The Johnson administration disavowed the Moynihan Report and its author. The mainstream media spent the next several years framing Moynihan as a racist. 

I’m not a civic nationalist or an equalitarian. Unlike the President, I care no more about “lowest black unemployment ever” than I do about “highest Sri Lankan per capita income ever” or “highest Tibetan marriage rate ever” and I very much disapprove of the way in which white society is taxed to subsidize societies that cannot support themselves economically. I expect the whole 400-year endeavor to end very badly for everyone involved.

That being said, I admire Mr. Whitlock, who is one of the bravest men writing today. What he is doing by standing up unflinchingly for his faith and for his people despite the massive weight of near-uniform elite opinion against his views is an excellent example for every Christian man, no matter what your nation might be. And he is correct in pointing out that extraordinary measures to defend, restore, and even impose the black nuclear family are more necessary now than they were 55 years ago.

In fact, they are now necessary for the white nuclear family too if the West is going to survive as a civilization.

I was always amused by the white liberals and conservatives who believed that the Zero History crowd was going to stop with the historical figures that those whites themselves believed to be a little problematic, like Christopher Columbus, Stonewall Jackson, or Robert E. Lee. Of course the eliminati were never going to stop.

Police cleared the streets of central Portland after rioters pulled down the statues of two US presidents and carried out other acts of vandalism in the city, as part of an “Indigenous Peoples Day of Rage” protest. Demonstrators targeted statues of Theodore Roosevelt and Abraham Lincoln as they marched through downtown Portland on Sunday night. Footage shows a crowd cheering as the statue of Roosevelt mounted on a horse is pulled down. The statue was then covered in orange paint and “stolen land” and “murderer” were painted on the base of the sculpture. Roosevelt has been accused of supporting policies that pushed Native Americans off their ancestral lands.

Of course, now that the Zero History savages are going for the likes of Abraham Lincoln, Woodrow Wilson, and even Thomas Jefferson, white liberals still can’t accept that they were totally wrong from the start or even lift a finger to resist the intellectual sacking of American history. 

 Anti-racism is expensive, because once you start paying the Danegeld you will never be rid of the Dane:

Bands of shoplifters are terrorizing Soho’s high-end boutiques, lifting hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of designer merchandise, and in some cases, threatening security guards to keep quiet — or be labeled racist, The Post has learned.

The disturbing pattern began in late May during the riots that rocked the city in the wake of the George Floyd police custody death. High-end Celine was looted of $1.5 million in merchandise then, and the blatant thievery continues “every week” in ritzy stores such as Prada, Moncler, Dior and Balenciaga, one plugged-in local said.

“This is happening every week. Walk around Soho on Wooster Street and Greene Street, Mercer Street. … You have huge bouncers out there trying to deter hit-and-run activity,” the source, a restaurateur, said.

But in some cases, the thieves are given carte blanche to steal.

“If they [store personnel] stop them and say anything in the store before they’ve left the building then it often gets turned into a racial accusation,” the source said. “The brands … tell their employees to walk away,” the insider added. “They don’t want to be the next Instagram video claiming they are a racist brand.”

These brands will go out of business, but at least no one will be able to call them racist. Although, of course, they will be called racists anyhow. 

But who cares if white liberals are robbed and raped and ruined by their precious disadvantaged POX? They are metaphorically, if not literally, asking for it.

One can’t exactly call it “friendly” fire, but it is amusing to watch the SJWs in science fiction and fantasy shooting at each other. The Pink SF-SJW faction is backpedaling furiously after being accused of violence and racism for failing to provide free memberships to the Pox. Or rather, to provide them soon enough:

We have sponsored 46 people of color to participate in the convention at no cost (so far – more to come I hope), and have worked very hard to ensure that every panel is comprised of people from a variety of ethnic backgrounds, cultures, and perspectives. The panelist list hasn’t been published yet, but when it is I hope the list demonstrates our commitment to equity and diversity.

But their desperate retreat has been deemed too little, too late by the Black SF-SJW faction.

Please, no one jump in to save WFC at the last minute by fixing programming. If you want to protest these panels, tell them you won’t be on *any of them*. Why? They were offered help in June & didn’t take it. Bottom Line: @WFC2020 & ALL World Fantasy Conventions are not safe places for BIPOC & other marginalized folks. In some ways, it is an actively harmful, hurtful, & oppressive to these groups. I Do Not suggest you attend. If you’re BIPOC I suggest giving back that free membership.

And now Pinks are defecting in increasing numbers, lest they find themselves in the Black crosshairs.

• I’ve withdrawn from programming and membership at @WFC2020. Increasingly uneasy about the way they’ve gone about fixing the program and the lack of board-level structural response. 
• After reading through the information @tinytempest provided, I have withdrawn from World Fantasy Con as attendee/volunteer/program participant. Thank you, Tempest, for the abundance of work you do trying to make our community more inclusive.
• Very sorry to say this, but I’m going to have to withdraw from World Fantasy Convention 2020. Despite a lot of effort on many people’s part, the recent fiasco with panel descriptions demonstrates that the convention simply doesn’t understand how to operate in a diverse world without stepping on marginalized people
• The Writing Excuses podcast hosted by authors Dan Wells, Brandon Sanderson, Mary Robinette Kowal, and author and web cartoonist Howard Tayler will not provide content for use by the virtual convention.
• Just told what panel I’m on and I’m bowing out. Just the Caribbean panel description was enuf to make it depressing. In addition to everything else it boils down to: why can’t cons be professional? Operate on a sharp, knowledgeable level? I understand the weariness.

It’s hilarious! Especially when you realize that neither you nor anyone else you know who reads science fiction has ever read a single work by any of these zeroes, with the possible exception of Brandon Sanderson.

 In which we are reliably informed that not providing free goods and services to black people, goods and services for which other people are expected to pay, is nothing less than VIOLENCE. No, seriously.

This thing where *everyone* has to pay is not about making sure that everyone is equal. It’s about gatekeeping. … They make professional editors pay because they know professional editors have the money to do so. If you don’t have the money to go to this very expensive con, you are not in the club. I very much realize that this is not a fan con, because this con has always done its level best to keep fans OUT. And when fans do come, they’re treated like they crashed an exclusive party and are not made to feel welcome.

But beyond that, there is no reason why one should have to PAY to be on the committee. You said yourself that this has been a barrier to you getting BIPOC to work with you on this. That is the point. The WFC board won’t say that outright, but that’s the point. Any time you can’t volunteer at all unless you make a financial investment they are doing so in order to gatekeep.

There is no reason why WFC should not be allowed to have concom members and volunteers who just volunteer. … The first battle needs to be allowing people to volunteer to help without being forced to pay to become members.

I pointed Ginny to this thread about WorldCon in which the author says:

Pay to be a part of this space, where you are not welcome, where our imagination spanning FTL travel, fae, and vampires, cannot imagine of your joyful existence as equals, and then try, try to persuade us that you are worthy of respect.

That’s violence.

I concluded this email by saying:

“What WFC is doing is violence. To members of this community who cannot pay, to members of the community who might be willing to help.

I, for one, am glad to know that I am not a part of a community known for its racist violence. Notice that no matter how much you bend over, how much you dutifully obey, no matter how many hoops you very carefully manage to jump through, it will never be enough.

Your mere existence is violence.
