Our own Boko Haram, who call themselves Moms for Liberty

Most people are familiar with Boko Haram, the Islamist terrorist organization that began in Nigeria. What they probably don't know is what the name means. Contrary to some media reports, Boko is the Hausa word for the Western system of secular education brought to Nigeria by the British, and means more generally sham, fraud, or deceit.

When the British colonial government imposed secular schools in northern Nigeria at the beginning of the 20th century, Boko was applied in a pejorative sense to this new system.

Haram of course just means forbidden.

We shouldn't be smug. Our own local fundamentalists also think Western secular education is haram. Take for example, the locally-founded coven of screaming wingnut harpies quaintly named Moms for Liberty. These, ahem, ladies, who are mostly free of the education they so deplore, have gone after all mannner of social studies textbooks. And now they've also decided to clean up biology, which as we all know is a cesspool of deviant sex and Darwinism.

Especially quaint is their War on Seahorses. Yes, seahorses, genus Hippocampus, those cute little fish that swim upright and live entangled in weed. A more harmless beastie does not exist on Kali's green earth, one would think. But no. God, no. Seahorses are eeevil. Why? Because when she lays her eggs, Ms. Seahorse (sea-mare?) deposits them in a brood pouch on the front-facing side of Mr Seahorse's tail.

I bet he loves it when you call him sea-stallion. But what kind of stallion lets a gal do that to him? A gay stallion, that' what!

The eggs embed themselves, and he carries them for one to six weeks, dependsing on exact species, before tiny baby seahorses emerge.

This can't be right! This isn't God's Plan. Male and female created he them, and ii's the gals that are supposed to do the begetting of brats thang. These must be Satan's fishies! But fear not, Boko Haram, I mean Moms for Liberty, are on the case!. They complained the book Sea Horse: The Shyest Fish In The Sea is contaminating the innocent minds of our previous children. It contains...

mating seahorses with pictures of postions [sic] and discussion of the male carrying the eggs.

Alas, though, Hippocampophile sex-perverts will vbe disappointed if they rush to buy this piscian pornography. There are no racy photos of seahorsey canoodling. But, faithful to my polymorphously perverted nature, I provide, above, a picture of two of the creepy little demonfishes in flagrante delicto, which is Latin for aquarium. (Hey, I thought aquarium was Latin for aquatium).

Asked for her opinion, someone who looked quite like Brevard School Board candidate Megan Wright commented thusly...

That's disgusting. Look at his swollen belly! He's flaunting it! He has no shame! I don't know why he's so happy. She won't call him in the morning. They never do. And he looks so smug, probably because he's dreaming of playing on women's sports teams and using their bathrooms. Come to think of it, they're probably both gay!

In all fairness, I must correct her. Seahorses mate for life. Or so say the pervert lib'rul scientists who probably don't know what gender they themselves are either. Hurr hurr hurr.

Moms for Liberty, folks. Part of what makes America exceptional. Exceptionally stupid.

Benny Johnson and Turning Point USA at UNL: stealing people's stuff to own the libs

Image
The newly 'recognized' Turning Point USA UNL chapter have immediately put paid to speculation they might be any different than the other chapters of the alt-right campus freak show, by recruiting the unsavory Benny Johnson as their first speaker. Benjamin Arthur Johnson graduated from the University of Iowa in 2009. Although it's been variously reported he also has a degree in Organic Chemistry, U. Iowa seems to think he only graduated in Psychology . Since he was an honors student, I hoped to find the thesis he is supposed to have written; running that through a plagiarism checker might be a laugh riot. Unfortunately, it seems not to be in their digital repository. Johnson commenced his career with a listicle-laced gala performance of promiscuous plagiarism at Buzzfeed, which led to his firing. He stole from no fewer than 41 articles. Then, after a brief break to let the scandal die down, he got a job at IJR Review . The man has no shame; a hate click, he claims,...

Dan Whitney, aka Larry the Cable Guy, a short biography

Image
I have known of Dan Whitney, Larry the Cable Guy , longer than most people have. In the car on the way into work at the University of Nebraska at Lincoln, we used to listen to one of the usual mostly-talk rock radio shows. Larry would quite regularly call in. His accent fascinated me. Probably because I’ve lived in so many places, I like to try to place accents. Larry the Cable Git's accent was vaguely southern, or was meant to be southern, but I couldn’t place it anywhere in particular in the South. In any case, he’d distorted it so much you could make out only half of what he was saying.  What he was saying was mumbled, consciously transgressive hate.  Later on, I discovered he was was born and grew up in Pawnee City Nebraska, until his preacher daddy hauled him down to Florida. It’s a long story… (1) Daddy issues Daniel Lawrence Whitney, better known by his stage name and character Larry the Cable Guy, was born on February 17, 1963 in Pawnee City, Nebraska, to the Reverend ...

The Fortenberry slaves: a prelude

Image
Toiling in the mid-morning sun, in a hot, muddy cotton field in Copiah County, in the south of Mississippi, three young African American men, brothers, aged 18, 20 and 22, hoed the rows. It was late June, 1860, and so the men were slaves. The ground was wet from yesterday’s rain, the air heavy, and the men were anxious to finish their work before the clouds gathering on the western horizon flooded the fields with another summer cloudburst. Inside the plantation house, unbeknownst to them, they were being enumerated . James R Fortenberry, the slave-holder, a man of about 35, was listing their important personal details to Elijah Peyton, Assistant Marshall. These details were three; age, gender, and race. The race was officially ‘mulatto’; at that time, and in that place, mulattos were usually the sons or daughters of a black woman raped by a white slave-holder. They had no names, as far as the United States Government was concerned. Instead they would be listed, in Peyton’s elegant,...
