In Topics: Liberty/Libertarianism Orwellian Stupidity Kung Flu Stupidity Totalitarianism
New York's Totalitarian Governor Hochul Minh was one of the worst during the Kung Flu PanicFest. Peak Stupidity featured a first look at this hysterical piece of work in High Priestess of the Branch Covidian Social Justice Climate Cult. Then, we commented on her push for the mandatory jab in Drinking the KOVID Kool-Aid. Suffice it to say, we've not thought very highly of the Governor of New York... come to think of it, probably since the time of Fiorello La Guardia.
The humiliation of mandated donning of useless face masks is something Peak Stupidity covered in many dozen posts tagged with that Kung Flu Stupidity topic key. Check out specifically our 5-part "March Mask Madness" series from '21.
Going back to before the PanicFest, before anyone would imagine the stupidity of '20, we came out against the banning of face mask wearing. Our point was about Liberty, not some ginned-up pandemic PanicFest. It's a matter of anonymity. Being anonymous is so much harder than it was over a century ago, before, say, the IRS, and compared to the days of our Founders, well, they couldn't have imagined...
Keeping our faces hidden while out in pubic is about all we have left, and even then, if one is worried about his identity being figured out after the fact (some happening), he'd better walk differently too. (Our gaits are very unique. I recognized a guy I knew when we were both unknowingly in the same place 500 miles from home one time by the way he was walking... at 5 in the afternoon, coming out of bar.)
Therefore, when Steve Sailer wrote that he was in favor of anti-mask laws (before he was in favor of anti-nonmasking laws for a bit) a year or so before the PanicFest, for reasons of law & order, I disagreed. I mentioned this in a footnote later under the post When the masks come off. Mr. Sailer doesn't really hold so strictly to principles of Liberty and all that, being a more practical man.* Peak Stupidity does.
Guy Fawkes and his crowd wore those masks that the antifa Commies have made famous again. Perhaps both are not very good examples of the point here, but then there were those guy that dressed as Indians and threw tea into Boston Harbor. They craved anonymity, as did the pamphleteers and such during the Revolution. Then, there are the millions of bloggers and commenters on the internet. Here's looking at me, kid. Who? Me, you know, the Moderator, whom you can't even email.
I'm repeating my point of the post 1984 - NOT an instruction manual, people! though, so I'll quit with this. That all said, since the face masking has thankfully subsided greatly, of course I've still got no political beef with those who don them. There may be some older people whose doctors have recommended them due to certain ailments and in public places or something. I don't know - I see at the airport terminals that it's probably only 1 in 100 or so (perhaps a survey would be in order), but just today I saw a not-so-old lady driving in her car, windows all up, with one of these one. It's her business, but on my end, dumb looks are still free.
Now, from the Associated Press, we read that NY governor's subway mask ban proposal sparks debate over right to anonymous protest. The problem they've got up there is indeed a real lack of law & order. That's not due to the laws themselves but the people themselves. It was bad enough with just the Black! thug contingent, but now, as New Yorkers have become Miamians now, dealing with the scum of Latin America and the RODW**, they're desperate for solutions. That is, they want solutions that comport with Totalitarianism, not, say, something that may very well work, an army of Bernie Goetzes.
However, Totalitarians don't care about the people and their problems on the subway. They care about their big benefactors though. Her big benefactors care about:
At at news conference in Albany, the governor said she was moved to act after “a group donning masks took over a subway car, scaring riders and chanting things about Hitler and wiping out Jews” on Monday night.Ahaaa! Hochul Minh had no problem with people masking up to smash storefronts, loot, and burn in those peaceful protests in '20. She had no problem with their NOT masking up either, as they had some sort of waiver, apparently...
It was not clear exactly what incident she was referring to, but it could have been a conflation of different episodes related to pro-Palestinian demonstrations that day in Union Square Park.
No, but this here is SERIOUS! It is surprising to see that the ACLU is on the right side of this, well, almost:
“The Governor’s concerns about masks disguising criminal activity won’t be quelled by banning anonymous peaceful protest. Mask bans were originally developed to squash political protests and, like other laws that criminalize people, they will be selectively enforced — used to arrest, doxx, surveil, and silence peopleFIFT and yup.of color and protestorsthe police disagree with,” Donna Lieberman, executive director of the New York Civil Liberties Union, said in a statement.
The Governor of New York is pretty much on the wrong side of everything. Much of the virtue signals and supplies come from Albany down the Holchul Minh Trail, down the east side of the Hudson, through Westchester Country, to NYC. We need to cut these supply lines. I'm thinking B-52's... the same ones as last time in fact, re-engined and with glass cockpits ... call it Operation Wine-Aunt-Cracker.
* Practical in the short run, that is. Being practical may well mean USSR style practicality coming in the long run.
** That's a foreign policy wonk acronym for Rest Of the Degnerate World.

As these Democrats roll from one MANDATE to another, from COMPULSORY masking to DECREED jabs to whatever else they dream up for the peons. And my, my how the peons seem to eat it all up with virtue signaling compliance no matter where they are (even in their cars and homes). Democrats are training their lemmings well how to march to the cliff...

Yes, but this is different. When the angry (always so angry) enwords were burning and looting and smashing the place up it was for social justice! (A most righteous cause!)
A guy on the subway saying 𝑟𝑎𝑖𝑠𝑒 𝑦𝑜𝑢𝑟 ℎ𝑎𝑛𝑑 𝑖𝑓 𝑦𝑜𝑢𝑟 𝑎 𝑧𝑖𝑜𝑛𝑖𝑠𝑡 (in what appears to be a jovial manner) is the worst sort of anti-semitism. This is the stuff pogroms are made of.
It's Anudda Shoah!
And it makes the chosen feel unsafe. It scares them, and it hurts their feelz. And as all good thinking Americans know, there is nothing more important than jewish feelings.
-------
Quick side note...
Remember when they burned down the Wendy's in Atlanta during the protest over the (unnecessary) police killing of Rayshard Brooks?
Chisom Kingston and Natalie Hanna White each entered negotiated guilty pleas Thursday (November 30, 2023), according to Fulton County court documents. They each pleaded guilty to two counts of arson and one count of conspiracy to commit arson and received identical sentences of five years on probation and $500 fines.
(Fulton county, eh? Maybe Dernald Blomph should have burned down a Chipotle or something?)
(Equal protection under the law, blah blah, blah!)
But to be clear, no Jewish feelings were harmed when Kingston and Hanna torched that Wendy's during that mostly peaceful but slightly fiery night of (social justice!) protest.
----------
Where was I...
Oh yes. It was ok to try to make everyone wear face diapers during the PanicFest Flu Hoax. (This is what good "government" looks like.) But now that some people are wearing face diapers to the anti-genocide rally... Well, the chosenites don't like that, and they are getting scared. Time to outlaw the useless face diapers again. (Another example of good "government".)
All sarc aside, I agree with you, Achmed. Liberty and privacy are important. Laws outlawing face diapers in public are almost as stupid as laws mandating face diaper in public. But stupid is what these creatures do best.
Statists are weird. Unfortunately, they are many.
And they are the most dangerous people on Earth.
(and on that happy note...)

PS: Seeing as I should write a couple of posts speculating about America v Europe on Globalism, that's one point - it's still easier to ban the opposition in Europe. Here, it must be done in a more roundabout fashion, but "vee haf ways!"
Those calls for banning the AfD are something I was going to write about too. Yes, it is pretty ironic that they have the most support in the East.

PS
How long before she bans her political opposition?
Meanwhile, Germany attempts to recreate the DDR by banning the AfD, which oddly enough is strongest in the former DDR Bundeslaender.
The lights are going out all across the Western World, as our “Betters” decide to bare their lizard-alien fangs and return the bulk of humanity to serfdom.
