Among other things annoying about their collective nonsense, the communist Democrats are linguistic agitators. While known for their insufferable victimhood positions in all of their arguments, this latest example highlights just how insane and ridiculous this AOC tribe has become.
Originally, they moved from “silence is violence“, to speech they didn’t like hearing about being called violence. Indeed, anything the leftists do not like, they find some way to equate it with violence against them. At a certain point it all becomes silly, and the frustrated audience tells them to shut up, and stop being stupid.
However, not going to be denied the opportunity to spread the moonbat nonsense, a member of the AOC squad, Ms. Ayanna Pressley, now rises to say that if American taxpayers do not forgive the mountain of student debt (created by attending college to learn how to be a better communist), then taxpayers are being violent against her:
Anger is a very visible response from the leftists whenever their policies are rejected. The modern political left does not view rejection as a rebuke of their ideology, instead they view rejection as a need to push harder.
From the generation of new communists, insanely narcissistic people created by parents who were jaw-droppingly coddling and overindulgent, they need to reeducate their target. They need you to change your thinking and perspectives from incorrect thoughts they don’t agree with to correct thoughts that align with their selfish worldview. To achieve this outcome, the only acceptable path is to push their insanity even harder.
They have learned from their emotional experiences as children that eventually every parent will relent. There is now an entire generation who apply that experience toward their bosses, their colleagues and every interaction in their life. Yes, if you put anyone from this generation into a position of power or influence, what you get is exactly what Pressley and the AOC tribe are doing. Their worldview is based on a cognitive and emotional inability to contemplate their ideology is flawed.
The emotion of their views is the motive for their effort. As a result, they are incapable of changing direction. From the perspective of the modern political left, if they were to change direction, they would be rejecting the foundation of their own personal value. They cannot do that. It’s not them that are wrong -ever- it’s you.
Those who do not adhere to the insane ideological goals of the far left, are viewed as the problem that must be overcome. Their emotional attachment to ideology is why these avowed and ideological followers cannot be redeemed or coerced into reasonable positions with any logical argument. Instead, you must be re-educated to see their worth, to value their ideology… you, the person or group who stands in their way, will always be viewed as the problem.
If you are silent to their proclaimed victim status, you are committing violence against them.
If you state a viewpoint they disagree with, you are committing violence against them.
If you do not give them what they want, or feel they need, you are committing violence against them.
They then sit around with each other in large gatherings and echo chambers discussing the validity of their ridiculous grievances. This is all they do. This is who they are. This is all they know how to be.
Failing to accept the fundamental set of core beliefs within the modern political left, is a flaw on the side of those who engage in the battle for ideas. It doesn’t matter how good your ideas and policies are, even when you deliver results to prove your accuracy, this specific victim-minded opponent will always revert back to attacking the success based on their view of your wrongthink.
Arguing with a political leftist, in the hope they can be convinced to change direction, is futile. They are disassociated on a mental and emotional level from any semblance of a capacity to consider they may be wrong.
This is why you can never let up in the fight against them. Even in victory, the blue-collar working class common sense approach must be relentless. The modern left has to be destroyed on such a scale as their dangerous ideology is reduced to burning embers; however, do not trick yourself into believing it will ever be fully extinguished.
History has taught us that even when the professional political left is seemingly wiped out, enough will remain waiting for another Obama type personality to blow them gently into a state of reignition…. and the cycle will start again.
Democrats, today’s modern communists, believe in what they are doing, and they will never retreat from their doing it. The modern political left is intent on destroying the foundation of this nation. That is their mission, and this fight must be viewed through the urgency of a prism where we accept this is a zero-sum game.
If you are considered the enemy of the modern leftist movement, they will seek your destruction. The only way to fight this adversary is with brutal hand-to-hand combat where you never, ever, concede an inch.
For God’s sake, if you need a reference point, 27% of them are willing to put an untested vaccine into the arms of their children -without hesitation- to protect against an illness that is non-existent. Do you really think it’s possible to rationally debate them?
Instead, meet Obama’s “Yes we can“, or Joe Biden’s “Build Back Better“, with a much stronger and unapologetic “Fuck You, Joe Biden“….
That’s how we defeat the insane communists!
Site looks different Almost like it did in wordpress
I am having the same issue – I also cannot like comments…I am assuming that Sundance and crew are doing updates.
Yes!
Thank you for everything that you and the team do to keep this site up and running! You are greatly appreciated!!
😘
I love the re-establishment of links to both Previous and Next articles at the top!
Everything here is working well on my laptop, iPad and iPhone…!
One teeny suggestion – if possible can you darken the ThumsUp, #Likes, and Reply icons under each comment? They are a tad faint after this formatting revision.

If it’s ‘their lived experiences’, they should pay for it. Paying for everyone’s lived experiences gonna get expensive.
Federal government should not be financing college debt. Let the private banking system and academia handle that. That’s called a free market and it works.
America’s biggest problem is that it doesn’t have enough Insane Asylums.
We used to. Leftist judges closed them down. Now we have congress as the alternative.
Plus, blue state governors’ mansions, and blue cities’ officials’ residences …
WE used to have a lot of insane asylums but then “One flew over the Cuckoo’s Nest” won the Academy Award and they all started to disappear.
I financed my PhD and have done well in private practice, making my monthly sutdent loan payments now for over 15 years. I will eventually this year write them a check and pay it off. It was a business decision on my part and I’ve been responsible for that debt as well as the profits I’ve made. Since Congress controls the interest rate, they could help everyone by dropping that interest down from the 5.56% to current levels.
….and she calls self-gratification what?
I’m submitting a bill for my lived experiences. Going to take a little time to prepare, I’m not young. Maybe I’ll break it down by decade. They’ll need it for their budget.
Now.. Desktop view on a cell.

Everything is old site, kinda nice visit!
Turns out my lived experience does not include funding your bullshit gender idealogoy degree, so get a job at UPS and start paying your bills. Ways to save money? Try not grubhubbing all your meals and adding new tattoos and nose studs every three months.
I do think that there is wiggle room for Repubs to swoop in and yank the indebted-ex-student voter block to the right. America needs fundamental change in a lot of places, and this is one. But cancelling student debt outright is monumentally unfair to all those who paid for their education by the sweat of their—or their parents’—brow.
We need to keep fighting the left’s craziness, for sure. But once in a while, they identify a real problem.
And then propose a course of action that’s off the rails.
I reject their “solution” but see the problem. Administrators have taken advantage of naive young people.
In cases where the debt is unjust, then those who took advantage of the vulnerable should be on the hook. College and university admins.
“In cases where the debt is unjust”
In what cases would the debt be unjust? Didn’t these people agree to pay back the money when they borrowed it?
“But once in a while, they identify a real problem.”
The problem is that the government is involved with student loans.
The way I see it, there are two problems here. The first is as you said; the government being involved.
The second is that administrators took advantage of many incoming students.
For some jobs a degree is useless because real-world training, like apprenticeship, is better. Young people are still told the only option is a degree.
For jobs that do need a degree, they are not told about how the vast majority of degree holders won’t even get into the field, because there are not enough jobs to go around.
Instead, they are promised that their degree will be useful. Not might be useful. Will be.
Yes, the students agreed to pay it back, but only after being deceived.
At some point you have to take responsibility for the decisions YOU make about your college course studies & your degree. This is part of growing up. Right or wrong, you live with those decisions–not your mom, professor or administrator. The sooner you learn this, the better. Just what job does a kid majoring in philosophy think he’s going to get after he gets his degree?
So then, why is college tuition so sky high? Way too many administrators, special projects, and tenured professors is my guess.
I never took out any college debt. Yet you (seem to be) singling me out. Or was that “YOU” was meant in the general sense?
It’s good to take responsibility for one’s decisions. But people don’t decide to get tricked. When staff knows that a degree won’t help someone’s earning potential, but lie and say it will, that’s deception. The people who lied should be held responsible first, before those who fell for the lie.
People who were tricked should take some responsibility, by learning and growing wiser from the experience. And by deciding that, if it’s a choice between them paying or innocent by-standers (taxpayers), then they (the students) be the one’s to pay.
Better yet would be if the colleges paid. They are the one’s who falsely represented their product and took advantage of kids fresh out of high school.
What happened to good old deep research in what you are planning to do when you grow up.
Do you mean researching to see if a degree really is needed? If you might be able to break into the field or not? If it will pay enough to be worth the cost of the degree? That sort of research?
When the federal gov makes education loans (and guarantees them), there is no incentive for universities to get their house in order. Quite the opposite – time to create more administrative positions because the price is passed on to students! Whn Big Daddy throws his wallet at the administration, they crank out 300K salaries for everyone in the DIE Suite! It’s very similar to the housing loan debacle where lending standards were relaxed in order to meet social engineering goals. Bad behavior followed and failure ensued shortly thereafter. In this case, unlimited free money (otherwise known as “education loans”) sets education pricing.
Although “well-meaning”, the feds destroy everything they touch with their standard-free loans-for-everyone. If universities had to back student loans (with endowment money, for example), the schools would adopt a responsible budget overnight.
Agreed
No, we are not paying for your commie education.
But seriously, ever since the government student loans that Obama started, tuition has skyrocketed. What is going to be done about the tuition costs? It’s been inflated for quite a while. People used to be able to work and take classes without going into debt or not that much.
The colleges and universities are making a killing.
I am the enemy and would love to engage in hand to hand combat against this racist bunch of “entitled” losers…they love to intimidate the opposition but we are on to them and will have none of it.
Bring it on…by the way…is Ray Charles your barber?
Typical of the Left. They just want to transfer responsibility for the debt to those who didn’t ask for it, didn’t agree to it, and didn’t benefit from it. Always wanting something someone else paid for.
Another reason we have so many “illegal” immigrants. I know, illegal is not supposed to be a word any more, but when they break the law to try and get all the free stuff that is supposed to be for citizens, I’ll call them illegal….they didn’t follow the rules….and don’t really want to become Americans, they just want what we have but they aren’t willing to work for in their own country. JMO
The refusal of this country to give me 500 troy ounces of gold is violence. Should I burn down Portland businesses until I get my gold? What about riot and threaten to burn down courthouses and police stations? Violence is an appropriate response to violence. Expect more violence from the left for immorality is in their soul. They expect value without any requisite virtue.
What Congressional District does this nutjob come from? Does anyone know anything about the makeup of her constituents? This person reminds me more of an escapee from a mental institution than a US Congressperson.
She represents MA (not me). The communists have such a firm grip on power here that the R’s don’t even bother to run candidates in most races. Their only competition is the Green/Rainbow Party, climate fruitcakes and sodomites joining forces. They elect powerless RINO governors here for “balance” or something
Well put. Couldn’t agree more.
But I laughed so hard I thought my pants would never dry.
Our greatest 20th century President, Calvin Coolidge,”They hired the money.”
Coolidge greater than Reagan? Hmmmm.
Harding, and Coolidge after Harding died, cut the size of the federal government in half in eight years. Coolidge declined to break Washington’s tradition and run for a third term after serving out Harding’s and his own.
Reagan was wonderful.
It was once said of Silent Cal “the country wanted nothing done and he done it”. In the sense of “that government is best which governs least” you are correct
I’m sorry, but I can never take anything a bald woman says seriously, no matter how angry or opinionated. Somebody find Ayanna a wig and I’ll listen!
She still won’t make any sense, even if she had hair…..and a wig won’t make her any less angry and opinionated. She will still hate America….and should never have been allowed citizenship. Anyone who doesn’t like our laws and customs, doesn’t need to be here, let alone be part of the government.
I always thought she might be receiving chemo. Just another useless idiot wind up toy not bright enough to have opinions of her own. She just regurgitates the Marxist talking points with which she is programmed
Dear Dufus Graduate,
Give your degree back and tell the college to give you a refund. If that doesn’t work go jump in a lake.
A few years back while getting our daughter enrolled at Ole Miss, we attended a financial seminar (code for college welfare) at the schools orientation. Eye opening,.. if you receive financial aid you do not have to maintain a 2.0 grade point average. There is something like 5 whacks at the lowest goal post I’ve ever seen. Apparently appealing with the fact you’re too stupid to attend college continues the gravy train to infinity and beyond.
If you receive financial aid you qualify for a maid to clean your dorm or apartment (yes you heard that right), apparently keeping up a 1. + gpa is excruciatingly exhausting.
The most mystifying part of the process for me was how many folks approached with the same question again and again.. why do we have more money than the books, meals, and classes cost? The answer was always a resounding,.. “for living expenses”. Here’s my question, what is the motivation to get off the Government teat if you have maid service, more money than your meals, books and classes cost, and zero incentive to reach such an abysmal goal of a 1.0 gpa?
Education welfare is a thing,.. and it’s only getting worse. I’ve written both my Congressman, why is the Government funding cleaning services and allowing no accountability?
We paid for both our children to go to school, and they both worked for spending money. How is it possible that so many who do not send their kids to expensive schools instead electing community colleges or no sharing of costs should be on the hook for the expense of so many others? SMH,.. Ayanna can whine all she wants, far too many have paid far to high a price in terms of saving and working to allow this to happen.
Guess she got her degree from a Cracker Jacks Box. What a moron.
Took me 10 years of night school to get my degree….debt free. Took my daughter 7 years……….debt free. And we actually have jobs that those degrees are useful in. Can totally be done.
This bald headed witch should be driven out of politics and the State of Massachusetts and back to where she came from.
Hell is overbooked at the moment
If they were honest about their accusations, universities charging so much is the violence, not loaning you money to pay for the abuse.
Taking a $400,000 or more salary as a professor is violence.
Refusing to pay a debt is violence.
Exactly, even state universities are outrageous, I’m not even talking private liberal arts college.
For communist Presselly to toss around the violence term so freely and openly, she must have never been punched in the face or beaten as a younger communist to truly understand the true definition of the word “VIOLENCE”. She really is as stupid as she presents herself to be.
Moonback flying aimlessly!
FJB
Free Stuff is Taxpayer Violence. We can all play the ‘violence’ card.
P,S, Pay your damn bills!
When I finished my last graduate degree I wrote a very thorough thesis as required. The instructor skimmed it and said “Very good, it’s what we expected of you.” The classes were majority minority and the minority “students” didn’t just do sub-standard work, they didn’t do it at all. I imagine a percentage of them were illiterate. But they were awarded the same degree as me. It’s not fair :).My first experience with college was at U. of Maine in 1970. You sat in a lecture hall and took notes. if you didn’t take notes you failed. College ain’t what it used to be. If the pampered brats want to avoid student loan debt they should just forget college. A waste of time and money. Learn a useful trade and contribute something for once in their pointless lives
Everything with these wannabe tyrants is opposite world.
Violence is peaceful, words (and policy) is violence.
I want to subject everyone single one of them to endless loops of sticks and stones may break my bones but words will never hurt me.
I’m confused. Wasn’t “The Cone Heads”…a MOVIE?
The school should be on the hook. When a student you sold a worthless degree defaults on the loan, the school needs to pay it back.
perhaps they should have real violence committed against them, at least then the generations who didn’t get their a55es spanked for doing wrong will finally understand consequences of being wrong
If college debt is violence, its self inflicted violence! This idiotic Congressperson wants to inflict “Violence” on the American people!
Canceling student debt is THEFT, because it sticks me with having to pay for part of your irresponsibility.
What about a class action suit to pay everyone who paid their own college tuition, get a matching amount, if this passes. These jerks who took out loans and didn’t pay them? There’s another trillion from the overstretched coffers!
One of the most valuable life lessons I learned, is obviously not part of the collectivist/conmunist indoctrination;
“You can not change or control anothers behavior; not your spouses, parents, child, boss or coworker.
The ONLY behavior you CAN change or control, is YOUR OWN. Not saying its EASY (addictions to nicotine, alcohol, drugs, overeating,..etc.) only that its POSSIBLE, and changing or controlling OTHERS, is not.”
Collectivist/Conmunists seem to take the opposite view, trying to change and control everyone ELSES, while exhibiting no self control.
The Cloward-Pivin Strategy.
A child has to learn to become a responsible adult and part of that is learning to support themselves as adults including to pay for their own university training. In much of the Western world there are many working opportunities so young people can pay their way – but not if they want to spend much time partying while at university.
By what authority has the federal government inserted itself into education and funding higher education? If not granted by the constitution, it has no authority. Hence, responsibility is granted to the states. The federal government needs to be removed from having any authority in both education and funding it.
“Arguing with a political leftist, in the hope they can be convinced to change direction, is futile.”
As they say, arguing with leftists is like playing chess with a pigeon. No matter how good you are, the pigeon is going to sh*t on the board and strut around like it won anyway.
I absolutely love reading the articles here! They’re always written well, true and knowledgeable. Thank you.
Agree…..100%+
You decided to go for higher learning, your choice, you pay for it. You are not my dependent.
I’m going to disagree with Sundance on just two points.
“From the generation of new communists, insanely narcissistic people created by parents who were jaw-droppingly coddling and overindulgent … Yes, if you put anyone from this generation into a position of power or influence, what you get is exactly what Pressley and the AOC tribe are doing.” [emphasis mine]
Ask just about any Millennial – the ones you’re calling the ‘new communists’ – and what they’ll say is that they felt neglected, abandoned, and unloved by parents who tried to substitute money and gifts for time and attention. A lot of the problems we’re seeing with Antifa et all arises from abandonment issues and public education.
Also, as someone FROM this generation so generally spoken of, I rather resent the implication that I and all my peers would comport ourselves exactly as AOC and her Embarrassment Squad do.
As someone who once took out a loan to go to college, I resent the so called representative saying they loans outstanding should be cancelled. I paid mine back. while making jut $10 an hour, You need to pay yours back as you make a lot more than most people who actually work for a living.
Pressley, your students owe me 1,700,000,000,000.00 with interest. Now, I own your ass and I want my money. Don’t piss me off. Just pay what the F— you owe.
Canceling college debt is robbery of the people that put up the money that was borrowed, whether private citizens or public taxpayers..
Three words.
PAY YOUR BILLS!
The thing I don’t agree with is Biden was the main force to make it impossible to write off for those that go through bankruptcy…
Could Pressley’s vehemence possibly be attributed to her $200K school debt?
” The modern left has to be destroyed on such a scale as their dangerous ideology is reduced to burning embers;…”
Not enough. A good start, but this “destruction” needs to be the equivalent of a stone age camp fire discovered by archeologists on a remote island above the artic circle in Canada.
