Glennon raised the stakes of the moment in broader civilizational terms: “This election in Illinois is not about the usual pedestrian issues… it’s about nothing less than whether Western civilization survives in our democratic republic of America because [the left], just on the open border alone, will destroy the country, and now they’re bringing in the jihadists, frankly, into the party.” Audio and summary linked here.Audio and summary linked here.
New Trier High School made national headlines nine years ago as a “canary in a coal mine” for political indoctrination in public schools. The canaries lived.
Among the consequences of economic growth that badly lags national averages are billions of lost revenue every year. Yet denial reigns in Illinois, fueling the vicious cycle of demand for higher taxes.
A room full of willing slaves.
Look closely at the picture. These are the freaks that will joyfully put the bullet in your head at the gulag. Communism always fails because it goes against human nature and it takes force, brutally cruel and deadly force, to implement their policies on an unwilling population. Communism has been around for only a hundred years but has killed more people than any other ideological movement in human history. You can tell how fervent they are by their enthusiastic commitment to abortion, the murdering of an innocent unborn human in the womb. Communism is a sick death cult. I never… Read more »
They’re not freaks, just ugly. I mean, look at that crowd. It’s not an attractive group. And soft. Has anyone in that group ever lifted a dumbbell? I can think of one word to describe them: unhealthy.
And I say this as a person who could give two damns about appearances. But no wonder they’re always angry. If you had to wander through life looking like you were going to an audition for the Stay-Puft Marshmallow Man or a corpse on Law and Order, you’d be mad too.

I couldn’t tell because they all had face diapers on.

Don’t be deceived by the cover photo: the few people of color in the front row are standing in front of a sea of white people behind them. This is a common theme for DSA media: find the few Black or Hispanic people at the event and put them in all the photographs to appear diverse. The reality is socialism attracts mostly angry white people who, I’d wager, are mostly employed in the same public sector they wish to overthrow.
Yep, and to think you’ll be supported by these super productive people in your old age….
No I won’t. I made, saved, and invested my money so I wouldn’t be a welfare roach in retirement.
Haymarket Books is owned by Julie Fain, wife of Jesse Sharkey and daughter of Richard Fain, former CEO of the Royal Caribbean Group. In other words, an heiress living off her father’s wealth, which allows her to run a bookstore of questionable profitability while living a well-to-do lifestyle.
Communists pushing an unobtainable utopia unto liberal, social justice ears.
The Leaders here are laughing at how gullible people can be, while they fill their pockets with your cash. Communists/socialists are the robbers, not only of your hard earned money, but your mind and country.
Manky much ?
Hmm, isn’t the Hyatt owned a pol? You’ll know them by their fruits.
