@ShaniceVandenberghe [name pseudonymized] [ontology] [03]: Our inept political & military leaders heat up the #ColdWar while crushing morale in our forces with their #woke ideology. The uneducated young soldier, #AudieMurphy in #WWII, knew nothing of #CRT, #transgenders or #WhiteRage. But he dearly loved his country—and #liberty. [URL redacted]

Addendum The claim that "The uneducated young soldier, AudieMurphy in WWII, knew nothing of CRT, transgenders or WhiteRage" is pure speculation i.e. #ReasoningFallacyBiasCognitiveWishfulThinking / #ReasoningTentativeHypothesisConjecture. Also, presumably, the 'ColdWar' reference here is a reference to criticism of #OrgClassifPPRUSUnitedRussiaVladimirPutin's #2022_InvasionOfUkraine - along the lines of similar tweets referencing #NarrativeWarWWIII

"From the MEDAL OF HONOR CITATION
2d Lt. Murphy commanded Company B, which was attacked by 6 tanks and waves of infantry. Murphy ordered his men to withdraw while he remained forward to give fire directions to the artillery. Murphy climbed on a burning tank destroyer, using its .50 caliber machinegun. Alone and exposed to German fire from 3 sides, he caused their infantry attack to waver. He received a leg wound, but continued until his ammunition was exhausted. Refusing medical attention, he led his company in a counterattack that forced the Germans to withdraw.
"I'm sorry, Audie. I'm sorry!"
AUDIE MURPHY"

Babbitt was a U.S. Air Force veteran from California who was shot dead wearing a Trump campaign flag wrapped around her shoulders while attempting to climb through the broken window of a barricaded door leading to the Speaker's Lobby inside the Capitol. Offering military honors to one of the Capitol rioters is part of President Donald Trump's attempts to rewrite that chapter after the 2020 election as a patriotic stand, given he still denies he lost that election. Babbitt has gained martyr status among Republicans, and the Trump administration agreed to pay just under $5 million to settle a wrongful-death lawsuit that her family filed over her shooting." https://www.pbs.org/newshour/politics/trump-administration-offers-military-funeral-honors-to-capitol-rioter-ashli-babbitt #IRLDeceasedAshliBabbitt [Wikipedia] #OrgUSFedAFMVeteran #2020_CapitolSiege #MetaphorMartyr #ConspiracyTheory_StolenElectionBigLie

Supplementary "Yet the most important thing extremists on either side of the political spectrum have in common is a sense of deep self-pity. In their minds, they are always being 'marginalized,' or dominated or threatened by a seemingly omnipotent establishment. In the U.S., inevitably, race plays a large role in such feelings, though for opposite reasons on the left and right. Left-wing activists are obsessed, not entirely without cause, with 'white supremacy.' On the right, [Tucker] Carlson asks with a straight face: 'Is [Putin] teaching my children to embrace racial discrimination?' Both [Vladimir] Putin and [Donald] Trump like to portray themselves as victims -- or, at least, as leaders who speak for the victims of liberal elites, arrogant internationalists, critical race theorists or people who fail to respect Russian or American 'greatness.' It is this idea of victimhood that people, especially on the far right, identify with. Remember the degree to which Nazi propaganda was soaked in grievance: the treatment of Germany by the allied nations after World War I, the dominance of Jews who supposedly pulled all the strings of power. The first official heroes of the Nazi movement were 'martyrs' who had died in street brawls with leftists. Real victims exist, of course. But when powerful men exploit a fear of impotence to stoke popular anger, it becomes a dangerous force, for it is always bent on vengeance. When there is vengeance, there will always be blood." https://www.washingtonpost.com/business/why-putin-unites-extremists-on-left-and-right/2022/04/02/ffde9248-b25a-11ec-9dbd-0d4609d44c1c_story.html #TheoryMarginalisation #PoliticsStatusQuoTheEstablishment #SlurWhiteSupremacy #OtheringDiscriminationRacism #OrgClassifPPRUSUnitedRussiaVladimirPutin #OrgClassifPPUSRepublicanPartyGOPPOTUSDonaldTrump #NMUSFOXFNCTuckerCarlson #OtheringElitesLiberalCulturalEducated #TheoryPoliticsOfFearAnxietyOfVictimisation #PoliticsFascismNaziPropaganda #NarrativeWarWWI #IdentityJewish #OtheringHateAntisemitismCaricaturePuppetMaster #MetaphorMartyr #TauntLeftist #TheoryCulturalImperialismWesternHedonism

Context #MagazineUSRollingStoneEJDickson [Muckrack] "In 2021, there's a simple formula for becoming a cancel culture martyr, and it's essentially as follows: One, make a tone-deaf remark or faux pas betraying your ignorance of your own privilege; two, lose your job or be publicly reprimanded over said offense; three, get a centrist or right-leaning columnist or public figure with a large platform to take up your cause, persuading their audience to rally behind you as an unwitting sacrifice on the altar of hyper-wokeness. ... In a resignation letter to Smith College President Kathleen McCartney, which was published by writer Bari Weiss on her Substack newsletter, Shaw, who is white, rails against what she views as Smith's 'dehumanizing' climate with respect to race relations, citing mandatory diversity trainings and the encouragement of diverse hiring practices as 'evidence' of such a climate. The first instance she cites is an incident in which a black college student accused a security officer of racial bias after the officer questioned her for eating her lunch in a residential hall, calling her 'out of place.' Although Shaw was not even tangentially involved in this incident, she apparently found it traumatic enough that she cites it in her letter as an example of college initiatives to '[dismantle] the supposed [italics ours] racism that pervades the campus,' which 'only served to support the now prevailing narrative that the incident had been racially motivated and that Smith staff are racist.' The rest of the letter, as published on Weiss' Substack, regurgitates basic anti-cancel culture talking points; in short, it reads like a Facebook post written by your uncle who voted for Obama, then started watching way too much Bill Maher. Shaw paints a portrait of Smith as a Marxist gulag in which free thought is punished (in her case, that free thought being not wanting to complete mandatory diversity trainings), and those who divert from the standard narrative are brutally castigated. ... At first blush, Shaw doesn't seem ill-intentioned so much as an out-of-touch white person struggling to navigate current liberal orthodoxies, which may warrant some degree of sympathy, if not mild amusement (if only for the rap part). But a rebuttal statement from Smith College President Kathleen McCartney indicates that she is actively trying to financially profit from the free speech martyr narrative she is currently peddling. In her letter, Shaw says she turned down a large settlement from the college in exchange for her silence, but McCartney disputes that, writing, 'it was the employee herself who demanded payment of an exceptionally large sum in exchange for dropping a threatened legal claim and agreeing to standard confidentiality provisions.' Fortunately for Shaw, she appears to have gotten her money's worth: A fundraiser to help her with living expenses has raised more than [USD] $214,000, proving that one of the quickest routes to success in the age of social media is to publicly and dramatically claim you've been canceled." https://www.rollingstone.com/culture/culture-news/jodi-shaw-smith-college-bari-weiss-rapping-librarian-1132010/ #CatchcryCancelCulture #MetaphorMartyr #EDUUSSmithCollegeKathleenMcCartney #NewspaperDEBrdshtDieWeltBariWeiss [Wikipedia] #WebsiteTheFreePress #TheoryMarxism #PowerControlUnfreeLabourGULAG #PhenomnUnconsciousBiasTraining
