  The article is better than the title... Katherine Maher is Worse Than a Leftist BY  ANDREW LOWENTHAL Katherine Maher, NPR’s new CEO, has been in the spotlight for more than a week now as the straight-out-of-casting avatar of peak woke and peak institutional attainment. But Katherine Maher is not a liberal or a leftist. Though she apes identitarian thought bubbles you won’t find her on a picket line, or splitting any of her previous  800k annual Wikipedia salary  with the downtrodden. I don’t remember it being a trait of the Left to work at the World Bank, the National Democratic Institute, and HSBC, intern at the Council of Foreign Relations, be a WEF young leader, or a fellow at the Atlantic Council, a NATO-affiliated think tank. Maher is what I call a Cosmopolitan Authoritarian – a cultural libertine that institutional power has anointed into the charmed circle. I crossed Maher’s path several times on the digital rights conference circuit but met her only once  when I made the mist

  ISRAEL Owns our Military and Congress via NGO’s FDD & JINSA A commenter on my blog was questioning my antisemitism and in support of Israel sent me a link to an article from the Gatestone Institute wherein they claimed Qatar was funding US Universities.  Therefore, the barbarian Muslims were Bad and Israel Good. The point was to prove to me that Muslims are interfering in our colleges which should be a violation.  The President of Gatestone, Nina Rosenwald, is Jewish and a self-described, ‘ardent Zionist’.  She was on the Board of Directors for AIPAC and the Jewish Institute for National Security in America (JINSA).

JINSA was founded in 1976, 3 years after the Yom Kippur War in Israel.  Its original stated purpose was to make sure that America could produce adequate military supplies for Israel.   In the 1980’s JINSA widened its focus to “general U.S. defense and foreign policy, with missions and meetings with national leaders and officials in

  But It's A Benign Dictatorship The Trial of Robocop RADIO FAR SIDE One of my favorite films of all time is  Paul Verhoeven’s  Robocop . It is probably the second greatest dramatization of Fascism ever put to celluloid, surpassed only by the unbounded genius of Orson Wells and  Franz Kafka  teamed up on  The Trial . The latter is more cerebral and depressing, following the tribulations of a man consumed by a cold and lifeless system (hint: humanity loses), while the former is a prophetic satirical romp through modern globalist society (hint: transhumanity wins). If you have any doubts whether you live in a Fascist utopia or a Socialist one, watch  Robocop  and compare it to your immediate environment. Most likely, you live in a Fascist utopia, with a thin veneer of Socialism to make it appear to have a heart and soul. Thanks to nearly a century of unrelenting propaganda, most people think Fascism was defeated in 1945, making the world safe for Socialism.  Au contraire, mon ami.  I
