Satanic Music: Stupid Stuff!

It’s not uncommon for morally decent people to refer to overtly evil phenomena as Satanic, and sometimes that can be a bit overblown.

But Alfonzo Rachel wants to know what else can you call music, media and politics that openly call for the worship of Satan himself? And, what can we do about it? Rachel is joined by Bill Whittle to discuss the issue on The Virtue Signal.

Horrible People

The “Right Angle” crew dissect the plight of an old church building in Manhattan, where the congregation can no longer afford its upkeep, so they agreed to sell it for $30 million, which thy planned to use for feeding the homeless and other worthy charitable aims.

Enter Hollyweird! Actor Mark Ruffalo, comedian Amy Schumer and other rich and powerful celebrities, who once rehearsed in the building, blocked the sale of the property. These multimillionaires could have simply bought the property, but instead went to court and started a crowdfunding campaign so that other people could pay for their cherished space.

Meanwhile, the court deprived the owners of the right to sell and the homeless in New York City go hungrier. Here’s more from Bill Whittle, Stephen Green and Scott Ott.

Trump’s Path Forward

With the reading of seven charges and 37 counts in a federal court, some of which effectively carry life sentences, Donald J. Trump enters uncharted territory.

The “Right Angle” crew of Bill Whittle, Scott Ott and Stephen Green discuss how candidate Trump can run for the Presidency while under the cloud of historic legal scrutiny.

Better Late Than Never

Bill Whittle says the good news over the Memorial Day weekend was some long overdue action by some 160 retired flag officers, who served in the U.S. armed forces.

Whittle says that would-be generals and admirals signed a letter, addressed to Congress, demanding the immediate removal of diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) from the U.S. military. Voicing strong concern in the letter, the officers said, “If not stopped now, they (DEI) will forever change the military’s warrior ethos essential to performing its mission of deterring aggression and failing that, to fight and win our nation’s wars.”

Whittle is joined by colleagues Scott Ott and Stephen Green to dissect the issue in this episode of  “The Right Angle.”

Fighting Back

Lauding Donald J. Trump’s masterful performance in a recent CNN Town Hall Special, Bill Whittle and Alfonzo Rachel ponder whether the ability to fight back against the media is the single-most important quality for any candidate during the 2024 election.

Whittle further surmises if President Ronald Reagan, who was the all-time master of this quality, would be able to pull it off in today’s much more toxic environment. Here’s more in this episode of The Virtue Signal.

 

Is There Really A Culture War?

Former South Carolina governor and Republican Presidential candidate Nikki Haley tweeted an invitation for Disney to bring its 70,000-plus jobs  to South Carolina, where the government is not so “sanctimonious” as Florida.

Bill Whittle thinks she needs to figure out which side of the culture war she’s on, but that begs a bigger question: Is there indeed a concerted full-court offensive against conservative values, or is this just the universal and timeless reaction of stodgy old codgers when confronted with inevitable change? The “Right Angle” crew of Whittle Stephen Green and Scott Ott debate the issue.

Defining Actual Progress

Do you remember a time when progress meant actual progress? Bill Whittle’s recent trip to the U.S. Air Force Museum in Dayton, Ohio, brought some shocking truths to light.

Whittle says the road trip got him to thinking about what can we do to fan the flames of achievement? If it were up to the progressives, he says, progress would be how far and quickly we could march off the cliff of depravity. “But when I was a kid, progress meant going faster, higher, farther–more technological advances instead of refinements,” he says.

In this episode of “The Virtue Signal,” Whittle and Alfonzo Rachel discuss how to escape the nation’s telltale signs that it has bound itself to an ideology  that is determined to stop the general definition of progress.

 

Chicks On Mars!

A  study apparently shows that for extended space journeys, such as a flight to Mars, an all-female crew would cut significantly on consumables and have other mass savings as well.

But what if they left something out of their equations? The “Right Angle” crew of Scott Ott, Bill Whittle and Stephen Green break down the study, and offer their analysis.

We’ve Had Enough!

What can we learn from The Great Bud Light Marketing Massacre? After partnering with transgender icon Dylan Mulvaney, Bud Light’s parent company, Anheuser-Busch, lost $7 billion in market cap.

The intensity of the backlash turned it into the worst marketing disaster since New Coke. Was the Rubicon crossed, or is this just another speed bump on the road to perdition? Bill Whittle and Alfonzo Rachel have come to the conclusion that enough is enough, in this episode of The Virtue Signal.

The Safety Cult

With the dumbing down of the Thunderbirds and Blue Angels aerobatic air shows, and similar steps taken in other areas, Bill Whittle says we have entered a safety cult era that has basically gone too far.

“We now live in a world where are no playgrounds anymore,” he says. “If there are playgrounds, they’re covered with six inches of rubberized cubes and there are no swings, and no merry go-rounds, no monkey bars.” So how much safety in the world is too much? The Right Angle trio of Whittle, Stephen Green and Scott Ott tackle the issue.
