The Left’s Addiction To Drama

Charles Maurice de Talleyrand-Périgord, the French foreign minister after the French Revolution, once remarked, “They have forgotten nothing and they’ve learned nothing.” Meaning, the same thing is going to happen again and again.

That’s applicable to today’s angry, almost addicted Left, argues Victor Davis Hanson in this edition of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words.”

“We have suffered now from almost a decade of Russian collusion, laptop disinformation, five criminal and civil suits, 91 indictments, efforts to get [Donald Trump] off the ballot. I could go on and on in a nauseating fashion, but they all have had two results.

“One, the people are now bored and weary with all of these psychodramas and melodramas. And two, they’re starting to see them as substitutes for substantive criticism or substantive discussion …”

Left, Right The Biggest Illusion

Jean Nolan comes right out asserts that most of the world is being played by the left-right paradigm.

Nolan says the concept surprisingly originated during the French Revolution, where in the French Assembly, those who supported the king and traditional order sat on the right. Those who backed revolutionary change sat on the left. Nolan says this seating arrangement gave rise to the terms “left and right.”

Nolan says the labels come down to ideologies, which tend to flip every few decades. “All of this is an artificial construct,” he says. “This is to put people into boxes and make sure they don’t explore outside of these boxes.” He explains further.

The Truth About Smart Cities

I expose the con games & sales pitches that the billionaires use to entice us into building SMART Cities & share inspiration from Taipei where the people are rejecting the SMART grid system. Also, I show you an odd similarity between SMART Cities and the “Hameau” — specially designed, fully functioning villages that were installed on the estates of the elites in France in the run-up to the French Revolution. More from Amazing Polly.

Nutball Scrawls on Painting

A 28-year-old woman associated with the 9/11 Truther movement has defaced Eugene Delacroix’s painting “Liberty Leading the People.” The iconic 1830 work, commemorating the French Revolution, is believed to have served as the inspiration for the Statue of Liberty.

The woman struck while the painting was on loan to the Louvre-Lens Museum, an art museum in northern France that often displays works from the Louvre’s collection. She used a red permanent marker to scrawl a Truther message on the painting. Police apprehended her, but prosecutors have yet to release her identity.

Jail time is too cushy for this vandal. She should be air-dropped into the Sahara, wherever the Jihadi insurgents are now holed up, and forced to fend for herself among her own kind.
