Justice under the Matriarchy

As a nation, we ain't livin' long like this...
It wasn't Peak Stupidity's intention to even mention the Lindsey Clancy child-killer Mom infotainment. I'm pretty sure you all could get the latest on the story elsewhere. It's a sick story. Many such cases. What I'm catching up on is what seems to be a combination of the question of sanity of the defendant and the murder trial at one time. Isn't there normally a hearing to determine if a defendant is sane enough to stand trial?
We don't pretend to be Legal Eagles here, so what I've gathered is that the deliberations that have resulted in a 2nd mistrial up in Massachusetts are on the verdict itself, with either an outcome of guilty or innocent by reason of insanity. Is that it? There's inherent stupidity there anyway, as sane or insane, if you're found guilty I see no reason the verdict should be any different. In case you've followed the case even less than I have, Mrs. Clark confessed to having strangled her 3 kids, methodically too.
That there are being bat-shit crazy people like this woman on trial is one thing, but that juries too are full of clueless emotional women is another. There were 9 women out of the 12, all who wanted to see this child murderer be set free, cause, feeeelings, both theirs and that of the woman who killed all of a man's (yes, he's a victim too) family other than her crazy self.
I'm glad to hear there was one actual man on the jury, doing a man's job. He stood firm rather than fit in with the 11 jurors who would not provide justice. The rest of the jurors are angry at him. So be it. One of them said he "had the hardest time getting off the fact that Lindsay viciously killed her children." No, he couldn't get "off" that. He shouldn't. Lately, the story is of one of the jurors (aren't they supposed to keep their mouths closed?) ... of the women jurors (oh, yeah) has said that she was ready to find Lindsey Clancy guilty, but then wanted to fit in with the rest. Additionally, she figured that the defendant wouldn't get such good help with her "problem" in jail.
Ha, I could say the same for the worst of the murdering, torturing and raping, MS-13 gang members. They commit some horrific crimes, but the problem is, if you put them in prison for that, it won't help them any. We don't want to help them. We don't want to help Lindsey Clancy. The time for that passed when she murdered her 3 children in cold blood.
That was just a rant and nothing you can't find elsewhere or in your own mind. My point today about this story is this: It's nothing too new to me, but for some of the billions (probably) of people who've followed this story, they've got to start wondering if women should be allowed on juries. It wasn't the case in the past that they were. Though they had served on them before, it wasn't until 1941 that Vermont officially made it policy that they could. In 1975, the Supreme Court ruled in Taylor v. Louisiana that women couldn't be treated differently in the jury selection process.
The right to vote is one thing. This right, guaranteed to women in the US since the odious Amendment XIX* was ratified 126 years back, had long-term consequences. With women on juries, however, the consequences are acute. If you find yourself depending on women on a jury deciding your guilt or innocence based on emotion, it will be a terrible feeling. I don't kid that your fate may very well depend on the phase of the moon. We can't have this. That's not justice. The Matriarchy can't serve justice.
The crowd of women online and in person supporting Lindsey Clancy, 3-time child murderer is another problem.
Besides keeping women off juries, what else did they do in the past to keep this problem at bay? Does Massachusetts really need to resort to this again?
As a parting thought, it seems like I haven't heard that "But think of the children!" cry so much anymore. Definitely those 9 women jurors in Massachusetts don't think that way.

GenGap 2.0 or MyGenerationGap?
Posted On: Tuesday - September 8th 2026 6:52PM MST
In Topics: Artificial Stupidity Muh Generation
The first problem with being a blogger from one of the older generations is you often don't remember you've already wrote about this generational stuff ... or anything else. Upon perusing a recent Steve Sailer substack post (just up to the paywall) on the naming of generations, I saw his great line stating that "Generational Theory is Astrology for MBAs." I really like that, and I know I'd read it before. A search got me to an older Unz Review Steve Sailer post / Takimag article Generational Gobbledygook: Astrology for MBAs. Ahaaa, there.
I also see that - this was only 3 1/2 years back, mind you - in the comments under UR post, I'd written a whole lot*, because I am familiar with William Strauss & Neil Howe's set of books on this Generational Theory. I hadn't written the background + review posts yet, but I stated that I'd use what I wrote in those comments whenever I did.
I did, obviously, but at that point I neither referenced Mr. Sailer's article with that great line nor all my comments in review of the books! What a tangled post we render, when we don't practice to remember..
From that recent post by Mr. Sailer, it's this graph that got me started here.
ngrams - lots of people like them, including Mr. Sailer. Here's where I disagree with him:
There’s a huge amount of talk about generations lately, although it’s not obvious that there is much of a generation gap in reality. The Generation Gap rose and fell from about 1964 to 1976:That was his paragraph above the ngram graphic. The problem with searching for certain phrases is that another new-generational phrase may take its place. Nobody says "generation gap" (Peak Stupidity excluded for these posts) anymore, because that was a phrase used by Boomers and the parents across the gap. How about if one ngramed "OK, Boomer" or "Damn worthless Millennials". I'm guessing you'd see some more recent peaks. Then too, most of the discussion about it would not be in books but in text messages and x's.
Let me quickly summarize 3 posts on the Boomer v Millennial generation gap I'd almost forgotten too from 4 1/2 years back, titled Millennials v Boomers.
Part 1 was about political differences. There's lots of writing in there about Presidential elections and the votes cast by the Boomers. Looking at some numbers, I saw that the strong political divisions have been not ever been really lopsided among Boomers, so I don't agree with the impugning of that generation based on politics. It's not like you end up with one entire generation of Communists and another of Libertarians. Each generation has its own different struggle that divides it.
Part 2 was labeled Digital vs Analog thinking. There's a big difference that leads to the main point here.
Part 3 was labeled Muh-muh-my g-g-generation g-g-gap. In this post, the widely differing economic and demographic conditions that Boomers lived under vs. the Millennials was described. There's a big gap in the understanding of each other.
Nowadays, I believe an even bigger generation gap is being formed. Digital vs Analog thinking - say, the competence with physical tools vs competence with digital electronic tools, aka, software was the start of it. However, the use of the smartphones has been a major change in the operation of society. It's a fundamental thing. My generation got our information about the world from other people, usually direct and in person. The young generations get information about the world from collective knowledge, often "curated" by people we'd rather not have do that.
The iPhones had been widely introduced by the end of '09, per my search. Someone born since '06 would not remember a time when he didn't see others carry around smartphones and use them incessantly. That puts 20 y/o's at the beginning of this new generation. Without good parenting, as in the control of "screen time", the use of the devices by these children themselves would mean that they had some
This difference in the very method of thinking between my generation and the younger ones hit home on long night last summer, as I wrote up in Uber Stupidity. The gist of it is that young people trust what comes over the internet and is displayed on an app versus a live individual person telling them something directly. "Never trust an app under 30 (Megabytes)." may be the new "Don't trust anyone over 30", as said by the young Boomers 60 years ago. (Thinking in Megabytes and other numbers may be pretty sus too, come to think of it.) Maybe it'll just be "Don't trust any one person."
Calling this a "Generation Gap" would be like calling one of the lower-profile cross-over vehicles a station wagon. OK, Boomer, that's just insulting. Let them come up with their own new term for the same thing. Even "GenGap 2.0" or "MyGenerationGap" sound too old and Microsofty.
How can we bridge this... whatever we want to call it? We haven't even mentioned AI yet.

Meatball Ron and the hecklers - Take 2
Posted On: Friday - September 4th 2026 4:00PM MST
In Topics: Elections '16 - '26 Humor Media Stupidity President DeSantis
I like Florida Governer Meatball Ron, both the name and the guy. I don't know if 3rd-time-around candidate Donald Trump used that nickname for him - he LUVS nicknames - as a slur or to be affectionate. See, he first tried out "Ron DeSanctimonius", which didn't make any sense. It's good wordplay, sure, but the guy isn't sanctimonious, so nahhh, that didn't stick.
He settled on "Meatball Ron". Peak Stupidity's reason for using this nickname is simply that we have to think about spelling each time we write (see?!*) "DeSantis", but not when we write "Meatball" and "Ron".
From our fairly-unused topic key President DeSantis, the reader can tell we had high hopes for the guy. I think it was only due to the Regime waged hard-core tyrannical Lawfare on Trump for a couple of years that Ron was left way behind in that election.
Also under that topic key, the reader will find a 10 round Trump v DeSantis series, spread out just a bit, mostly from Fall of '22 through late Spring of '23. (Then, the lawfare superqualified one of the condenders.) Round 10, all the way into '24 was titled Vetoing the Hecklers. In it, we compared videos of each of these guys calling out hecklers at their events. Trump won this one with a big knock-out. Amazingly, both short videos are still up, so you may want to watch these first.
I'll say it again here, Trump and his "Go home to Mommy... yeah, go back home to Mommy... Bye!" was pretty juvenile, BUT he came out with that right away and it's just silly enough to have me (and everyone else) laughing... I mean every time I hear it, years later I just crack up. I'm smiling as I write this.
Ron DeSantis eventually came up with a decent come-back, but it took 15 seconds! You can't DO that! It's a campaign. This was but a stage and you were merely players. You must play the part right.
OK, well, perhaps Meatball Ron has been perusing Peak Stupidity and taking our criticism constructively, as I just ran into another example of his handling hecklers from the other day. He has gotten.... errr, he's working on this. The casting director has not put out any ads for a new leading man at least. We're in The Biz, so Meatball Ron can consider this post payment-in-kind.
Bear in mind, what's described here is all important for campaigning. Meatball Ron has more intelligence in his pinky fingers than Trump has in total, but you can't lead with all that if you don't get elected. That's what this is about. Trump is very good at putting the act on, everyone would surely admit. Roll tape!
Unfortunately, I cannot get the video I've seen on X, so I'll paste in this one, made by a guy who's no Meatball Ron supporter at all. Don't mind the title. The guy hates him in fact, but he's got almost all of the portion of video I wanted to show. To set the scene here, the good Governor was in the middle of making a great comparison of Florida to New York State. Our host wiped all of that, but, take it at 0:41... lights, camera, action!
No, no, you're butchering it... CUT! Look, Ron, first of all you're acting angry. That's not what this scene calls for. You have to show humorous disdain. Our screenwriter gave you a good first line to work with: "Soros isn't paying you enough, because you're not very good at this!"
Of course, were I the director, I'd tweek that just a bit. The main problem is you kept going on, way too long. (I know, kinda like some of these posts, haha.) Say the line, and be done with it. After all that, you finally smiled (0:58), but, no, that was only because you felt good for at least remembering and quickly saying a line this time around. That was a real smile but one inappropriate for right there. You needed a smirk, sigh...
Is there any way we can get back in touch with Leonardo DiCaprio? This is just ... OK, sorry, uncalled for... I liked that "Not my first rodeo" bit, if that makes your feel better. We'll keep that.
One more time, let's do this thing. [Ron DeSantis on the campaign trail insulting the Commie hecklers, Take 3] lights, camera... aaaannnd, action!

Is or isn't this Ironic?
Posted On: Thursday - September 3rd 2026 7:43PM MST
In Topics: Music Humor
One of mid-1990s Canadian rock star Alanis Morissette's most well-known songs was Isn't that Ironic?, from her album Jagged Little Pill. Thing was, and still is, the ironic part about that song is that its lyrics didn't really describe anything ironic. The only non-tautological definition I have for the adjective form goes:
Poignantly contrary to what was expected or intended.I suppose I could call it a poignant song, but then I'd have to look up "poignant", and heck with that - I could be here all day! The events sung about in that song aren't unexpected...
... but what IS ironic is that the artist that gave us Jagged Little Pill, Alanis Morissette Sues Former Tour Manager for Fraud and Extortion, Accuses Him of Blackmail by Threatening to Report Her for Drug Trafficking. Drugs are bad, mmmkay? Trafficking them? Well let me ask Michael Scott about that...
“On Tuesday, the singer filed a complaint alleging her ‘disgruntled’ ex-employee Keren Urinov threatened to report her for drug trafficking, according to court docs.”I don't know how I was supposed to know this, but Keren Urinov is a chick too - Gateway Pundit headlines are plain wrong, pretty regularly.
Urinov reportedly filed her own suit against Morissette 13 days before. At this point, it is unclear what allegations she is making against the singer.
“Morissette claimed Urinov attempted to extort the Grammy winner into ‘employ[ing] her as a tour director for fifteen years and pay[ing] her massive compensation’, per the filing.”I'm guessing this is not just about the drugs. About the drugs, though:
“She alleged that in June 2025, Urinov’s bag was seized at the airport while flying to Spain for a concert for allegedly containing marijuana and xylazine, a non-opioid animal tranquilizer.OK, whatever, but how about this, is this part ironic?
[…] However, Morissette claimed Urinov and her attorney then ‘sent a series of increasingly extortionate letters’ and threatened to ‘file a patently frivolous lawsuit against Morissette in the United Kingdom for unspecified claims if Morissette refused to tell British law enforcement that the alleged drugs were hers’.”
Morisette wants a jury trial and compensation of over $75,000.Seventy-five THOUSAND dollars! [Oww, my pinkie!] Though I think of her as a "one album wonder"* Jagged Little Pill was such a big hit for Alanis Morissette - #1 on the Billboard magazine album charts, that she HAD to have made A LOT of money off it. She still ought to be, in fact, from royalties... probably from the Muzak versions too.
Even with steady high inflation, $75,000 is not peanuts for most of us yet, but for someone who's had a Billboard #1 hit music album in the '90s, that's basically chump-change level. (Maybe that's to compensate her for the lost drugs?) Nah, hell, that's not irony either, it's just stupid.
As for the song, it's got a decent melody, and Miss Morissette sings well, but Isn't it Ironic that the lyrics, the least important part, have me picking another of her songs today? You can see those for Isn't that Ironic? in that link, and you can see that most is not ironic but just shows a lack of common sense. Here:
- Don't play the lottery. It's for suckers - you're not gonna win.
- Too bad about your wine.
- You probably should have been executed long ago anyway.
- Have a back-up inside venue for your wedding. It does tend to rain sometimes.
- Wut?
- Think for yourself
- Airline travel is safer, miles-to-miles
- Give yourself an extra 5 minutes for traffic.
- Smoking is bad, mmkayyy?
- One word for you, "Plasticware".
- Don't be a slut.
It's kinda too late for most of this advice for Alanis Morissette. Peak Stupidity will therefore feature another hit from that big mid-1990s album, Hand in my Pocket.
I never saw this video before. The mid-'90s were an odd time for music videos. Music videos on TV weren't a big deal anymore - MTV had turned into NTV (you can guess about the "N") and VH-1 wasn't a big deal among all the cable TV channels. Yet, due to internet connections consisting of dial-up modems providing a couple of thousand bits per second, one couldn't watch any video on the internet, especially in real-time, unless he was, I dunno, a member of the intelligence community.
For me, the songs in Jagged Little Pill seemed to have a good sound back 3 decades ago, but now, she sounds just annoying. I don't like Alanis Morissette anymore. I particularly remember from back then that, among other lyrics that I wouldn't expect to make sense, she uses the word "chickenshit" wrong. She means "chicken" for cowardly, as "chickenshit" has been a word meaning relatively very small or unimportant, such as a lawsuit asking for $75,000 from a musician who'd had a #1 album.
* There are the many "one hit wonders", but this one album had 4 or 5 hit songs on it. There was that one big album, but I could not remember song from any of her others.

There's yet another Moslem Communist - what a concept - running for office, this time Federal, 1 out of the 100 Senators and likely to be one too. Peak Stupidity hasn't posted anything about this Abdul El-Sayed character due to ... sickening. Like his fellow radical Commie in NY City, this guy looks normal and talks normally, as far as Islam goes anyway. (I imagine he dons the full garb when campaigning in his people's districts.)
The funny video below, no intentional comedy show, AFAIK, does not put El-Sayed in the bad light, except just by his being there. Being a "Michigan man" himself, at least a Senatorial candidate BASED IN Michigan, Sayed has got to stay on the good side of the United Auto Workers Union. So, it's not really his fault that he had to put up with the micro-witted black woman at the podium.
You'll see why the memester who we got the clip from, just a quick first pick, named it "Please, blink twice if you are being held hostage..."
That was yesterday. In fairness, I'll link to the Gateway Pundit article on which I first enjoyed(?) this - Social Media ROASTS Far-Left Abdul El-Sayed Over Painfully Awkward Endorsement Video That Looks Like a “Hostage Tape” — Woman Struggles Through Talking Points as El-Sayed Nudges Her Along
No, the UAW is not sending their best spokespeople, and, yes, this was painfully awkward. I don't like the Communists, and I don't like the Moslems here en masse (nothing personal otherwise wrt the latter individuals), but I don't think this Abdul El-Sayed is stupid. This was so awkward for him, but, hey, she's on his side, right, what with the auto union proletariate members set to rise up against the bourgeoisie and all. Go Communism! As he wears his other hat, or dish towel as the case may be, this dullard is also against the White man, so good. Go anti-White anti-Christian Islam!.
I saw El-Sayed's empty right hand a couple of times, but one can't help but wonder if he did stick a revolver - the Commies are nothing if not nostalgic - into her back at some point. It was getting embarrassing. You gotta do something! Holy cow, this D.I.E. spokesperson LaShay Garrett* was skipping through a bunch of pages that are supposed to be notes or something, just to find the couple of lines she was supposed to spout. (What's wrong with "Line, please!"?) I'd first thought she's extremely slow-witted, but I think she is not someone who's comfortable talking in front of people... but D.I.E... and, she can't memorize a few lines.
One Eric Dougherty of Right Line News is quoted thusly:
“Abdul El Sayed has this woman out vouching for him but it looks like a hostage video. Abdul keeps nudging in, pushing her to keep going. She does not look like she wants ANYTHING TO DO with this Jihadist! Straight-up struggling to read the campaign-fed talking points. Yikes…”Maybe he's right. Is this spokeswoman not just uncomfortable and not so bright, but instead under severe duress? The lady to her right and behind is one Michigan State Senator** Mallory McMorrow. She seemed pretty perturbed too at the slow pace of the UAW statement of support for El-Sayed. I'm wondering if perhaps this LaShay Garrett is not as fat as she looks either but is just wrapped with a belt of explosive charges with Senator McMorrow's hand on the detonator switch.
Whatever it takes to win - gotta break a few eggs... BIG Humpty-Dumpty fans those Communists are...
PS: I just noticed The Simpsons Mr. Smithers at the end. Nice touch!

The 40 Trillion
Posted On: Monday - August 31st 2026 6:08PM MST
In Topics: Music Global Financial Stupidity Economics US Feral Government
Peak Stupidity has written about The Eleven many a time. That has been The Number of illegal aliens in the US this century. It's not even a round number, and it has more precision than it should based on known accuracy, but my real problem with it is it's been ridiculously low, based on simple influx - outflux over this whole quarter century. My guess is the number is 40 - 50 million, not quite the 100 million that "Commander" Greg Bovino has it pegged at, but at least he DOES have a nice round number!
The 40 Trillion is not a count of people but of US dollars owed by the Feral Gov't to its lenders, the Treasury Bond holders.* It's a pretty good round number, one I'd expected we'd hit in early October. Why early October, you may ask? We did a simple estimate a couple of months ago based on the numbers on the the US Debt Clock site.
Peak Stupidity has linked to that site before. The value of the US National debt is much easier to come up with than that prior (even more!) important number. We will not get into why this debt is "unexpectedly" becoming a real problem for America's finances, as we've been through this ad near infinitum.
That US Debt Clock site has all the US (and State/Local) revenue/expenditures/deficit/debt numbers we could possibly ask for**, precise to the nearest dollar, were your mind able to distinguish one microsecond from the next. The accuracy is probably good, as one of the jobs, the least it could do, of the Feral Gov't is to tell us how much money is being wasted and how quickly. It's not the numbers with 10-14 significant digits that makes the site useful but that the numbers turn over in some sort of real time so that the scale of the changes is evident to anyone.
What I did was use a stopwatch to time the debt number to the precise nearest million over 10 minutes. The less than half a second errors in the mashing of start/stop compared to 10 minutes meant I had a fairly precise number to extrapolate with. It told me I should set a mental note to get back on in early October and them maybe get a chance to take a screenshot with $40 and lots of zeroes, maybe to the nearest 10 million, chump change in the scheme of things here.
Ooops, I started reading about the 40 Trillion over a week ago. It was like missing a Lunar Eclipse! Luckily I was not in the shape Christopher Columbus' crew would have been in, stranded on his 4th voyage (see that post) had he no Astronomical Ephemeris book onboard.
My assumption was that USDebtClock used some large-time-scale numbers, the big spending bills, the average monthly tax receipts, etc, such that my estimate would get me close enough to a time when I'd start viewing the site much more regularly and then home in to capture a screenshot within seconds of the Big Four Oh. I guess they got a few big receipts in, or last month businesses got fed up and started cheating on their taxes harder.
I don't know. I was WAY off, so I missed it. Dang! I compared this to missing a Lunar Eclipse because they aren't rare at all like solar eclipses are. Nah, I just looked. I'm no professional Astronomer (though I used to dabble in it) but I calculated that sometime late this evening, barring too much cloud cover, we could see the debt owed flip to $40.1 Trillion. $50 Trillion, a REALLY nice round number, is just around the corner. I'll go find my eclipse glasses and possibly buy a case of Corona... I mean, no, this won't likely coincide with a Solar Eclipse, but who knows if a nuke will get set off, what with the political turmoil that that comes with the world's loss of confidence in that almighty US Dollar.
It's probably again time for Coldplay, come to think of it. Clocks is a great song!
I like the bit where singer Chris Martin starts a new sentence at the end of each musical line. Considered in the Alternative Rock and Psychedelic Rock genres, this 24 y/o song is from Coldplay's 2nd album A Rush of Blood to the Head..
Coldplay was:
Chris Martin – lead vocals, piano, keyboards, guitars.
Jonny Buckland – guitars, keyboards, backing vocals.
Guy Berryman – bass guitar, keyboards, backing vocals.
Will Champion – drums, percussion, piano, backing vocals.
* I know it's quite a bit more complicated than that, but I don't care about the financial shenanigans. That's debt.
** There are just over 100 different values in US dollars rolling by on the front page alone, and there's also a menu at the bottom that can steer you to more "clocks". How much time have you got?

Being John Cleese
Posted On: Thursday - August 27th 2026 9:45PM MST
In Topics: TV, aka Gov't Media Humor Political Correctness Movies ctrl-left Bread and Circuses
This "Being [whomever] deal seems to have originated with the 1999 movie Being John Malkovich. John Malkovich was an actor at the time, maybe still is, and I remembered him from some movies before that one. Oddly enough, I just looked, and I see that John Malkovich did not star in Being John Malkovich. WTH, it was John Cusack, along with... ooohhh, Cameron Diaz! I remember her from some movie in a white bikini, but as for being John Malkovich, who cares? Being an actor? You remember your lines, that's all - it's not rocket surgery. I can't even remember if I've seen Being John Malkovich - it couldn't have been that darn exciting to be him, I guess.. [Updated:] Per The Alarmist, with a scene "linked"-to in the comments, it was a good move. No, I haven't seen it, so disregard all that above.
Alright, but John Cleese, shown above, IS memorable. His olde English Monty Python's Flying Circus, aka, Monty Python, troupe (olde English for "group"?) made some of the funniest skits I've ever seen. From over half a century ago, 57 years in fact, to ~40 years ago, that humor can still be found all over youtube and on Peak Stupidity. That so many people I know enjoy it is pretty impressive considering the American v English cultural differences. The British The Office show was one I got on my Cantonese ripped/burned DVDs for the first season, and even though Ricky Gervais is a funny guy, no, it was not nearly as funny to me as the Steve Carell American show (the rest of the DVDs I bought for $2 total - the girl couldn't tell).
And to think, if anyone in the 6 member troupe was the straight man, it was usually John Cleese. Yet, he was STILL funny.
Pretty prescient, that one, or accidentally prescient, I should put it, as it's not like these comedians thought anyone would ever speak that way seriously, much less 40 years later! That scene must have been seen more than ever in the last 10 years in amazement on youtube.
The Monty Python troupe consisted of 6 funny guys, Graham Chapman, John Cleese, the eventual subject of this post, Terry Gilliam, Eric Idle, Terry Jones and Michael Palin. They'd often play the women's parts too, but occasionally there'd be real women - we can usually tell... very easily! One Sue Jones-Davies played the woman Judith in the above scene... the woman besides Loretta that is. (Eric Idle. Watch as he is about to crack up near the end.)
Monty Python made 3 movies, only 2 of which I know of well. First was Monty Python and the Holy Grail in 1975. I remember going to see their 2nd and most controversial one, The Life of Brian from 1979. However, as much as the great skits can be seen to humorously illustrate points here (Peak Stupidity) and there, I believe I've seen the first one pretty much full through and the second similarly long after the first time. I suppose their movies are just a bunch of skits put together.*
About that controversy, The Life of Brian was a spoof on the Life of Christ, obviously. During the time of its release, that was not quite the laughing matter it is now. I can remember the controversy, yet free speech law reigned in the end. In the meantime, no movie studios were bombed or directors assassinated, as if had been, say, I dunno, The Life of Mohammad.
Yes, Monty Python made fun of everybody, no holds barred, except, yeah, could one talk about The Moslems? There really weren't many in the English speaking word in that era, such as their home, so I can't see holding that against them.
Something you couldn't do today is make fun of stutterers. It'd be a mean thing to do in person of course, but... crimey, I mean, I think Michael Palin here is so funny he might even cure a few people with the problem. This was as late as 1988.
That scene is from the movie A Fish Called Wanda. It's not a Monty Python movie, per se, but 2 of the 4 of the main characters are from the group, Michael Palin and John Cleese (both in this scene). I really, really tried to find my favorite scene, in which Michael Palin tried to tell someone, "It's in the b-b-b-b... It's in the b-b-b... it's in the ... b ... lavatory!"
What Monty Python did though, per a friend of mine, is continually ridicule the Conservative Establishment of their beloved England.** Now, this friend is really into watching old movies and TV shows and picking out the agendas within, and then explaining this to me. Was it all in fun, or was there an agenda being implemented as these funny guys made fun of everything English? (Or, do you just make fun of it particularly because that's what you know best?) Was making fun of an important mythical history, the roots of olde England, a bad thing too?
That's one of my very favorites (it's from The Holy Grail) - Eric Idle is hilarious. I'd say he's making fun of the left quite a bit in this one, to great effect.
I write of being John Cleese in this post because he's one of these 6 funny guys who has been making political statements. Normally, I wouldn't want to hear anything some actor's got to say, but Mr. Cleese's comments against wokeness and the Moslem invasion of Britain or different from what you normally get from them. To be fair, shouldn't it be not worth listening to either way?
You can read his comments anywhere, but here's just one article, from ZeroHedge: John Cleese: "Some Cultures Are Better Than Others". The bolding is by ZH (actually Modernity News) writer Steve Watson, or the editor:
"I am not a racist. I am a culturalist," he stated in a post that now has over ten million views, adding "I believe that some cultures are better than others. I prefer cultures that do not advocate stoning, pederasty, wife beating, female genital mutilation, and beheading opponents. Call me old-fashioned..."I'm too tired to argue about the "I'm not racist" bit. It's great that he supports Restore Party's Rupert Lowe.
Cleese had earlier made plain his preference for Lowe over the rest of the political class, stating he trusts the Great Yarmouth MP "more than any of the other leaders." The Metro reported the comments as Cleese pushed back against the predictable pile-on.
Mr. Cleese is quite the Conservative. At least, NOW he is. He has seen over this century the terrible changes in his home, and he doesn't like it. At least he speaks out. Fine, but my friend has told me numerous times that John Cleese himself was a part of the reason Great Britain has gotten to this point. Oh, maybe it was not a BIG part, but it was a tearing down of the Conservative Establishment that Monty Python did with their skits, shows, and movies. (He brings up their third movie The Meaning of Life as their most "damaging".)
It was just a funny TV show and just 3 funny movies! What difference could that make for the future of Great Britain? Well, media does play a part in changes to a society. Some cultures are better than others, Mr. Cleese accurately says. Being John Cleese, could he reflect a bit on his life and see that maybe his hilarious comedy group played a small part in changing the culture of his home for the worse? That is, even if it wasn't intentional?
The spread of Islam isn't the only cultural change that one might have noticed while being John Cleese. However, that major existential issue is what John Cleese is most concerned about now. Therefore, an interesting thought experiment is to consider whether he and his troupe of comedians would have made some very funny skits regarding Islam during their prime years, had it been anything anyone cared about. Their skits on their Flying Circus TV show were about British life, seeing as that's where they lived as did lots of their viewers, and almost no Moslems did.
I wouldn't have expected a movie about Islam from them, to rival The Life of Brian, as I mentioned above, but is that because nobody cared or because those certain people cared too much, even back then? Nowadays, the 6 Monty Python actor/comedians are very old, and I don't think they'd come off as so funny anyway, but England's too far gone to allow them to as much as make a funny skit. Comedians would probably die, or they'd be arrested before they filmed the first cut. So, Mr. Cleese has been able to speak out at least, but that's about it. Maybe they should have made that movie... MOAR royalties.
I'm just passing this along. Maybe Monty Python's effect on society was truly all just fun and of no consequence. I have a dozen funny scenes I wanted to feature here, but this is just a very short bit from A Fish Called Wanda. John Cleese is the upstanding Barrister, and the other guy in the cell is one of the crooks (working with Michael Palin, Kevin Kline - hilarious in this movie - and Jamie Lee Curtis.)
Maybe that's only funny if you've seen more of the movie...
* Then too, all movies are just a bunch of scenes put together, something that I don't really think about when watching. "Wait, they filmed this part AFTER that part? That seems ... not right ..."
** Wait, Conservative? Sure, economically, the place had been Socialist for a couple of decades already. It was the 1960s and 70's (and a bit of the '80s) too, so you know... However, just as in America, hippies and protesters notwithstanding, the people and the Establishment were still pretty Conservative.

Last South Carolina US Senator Debate - Kang v Kodos
Posted On: Tuesday - August 25th 2026 10:44AM MST
In Topics: Elections '16 - '26 Immigration Stupidity
South Carolinians will vote today to finish this thing. It's very likely that the winner of this special Primary election will beat Democrat "Dr. Annie" and become one of 100 Senators, but who knows, if this ends up with a woman v woman election in November.
I watched the hour debate embedded here disgustedly last week. I'd had about enough at 48 minutes in when Ralph Norman responded to immigration invasion questions with the usual, BUT LEEEGULLY! Both of these two re-re-re-iterated that they are "with Trump", but they may be thinking of Trump-45, with his "big beautiful wall with a big beautiful wall in it". Trump HAS wised up, probably with lots of help from Steven Miller and others.
I had to finish though, just now. I'm glad, at least, that one of the 3 interrogators came up with a
The big story on this debate last week was Darline*'s having told the audience in response to a question about China/Taiwan that foreign policy is just not her thing so much. I actually appreciated this honesty, as I listened to 20 minutes or whatever of standard NeoCon boilerplate BS from both of them. No, my problem was her having stated that South Carolina has 50 million residents! I thought I'd heard that wrong, until I saw it written elsewhere.** That's off by a whole order of magnitude.
This is no good. Perhaps this Norman guy is bad with numbers too, but if you can't get numbers, the whole immigration question, for one thing, is not something you'll ever be able to understand.
Here you go. I'll have more to say below it.
Speaking of numbers, as things got acrimonious over the last 10 minutes, Darline told the audience how Congressman Norman had been paid $1.7 million by the US taxpayers over 10 years. Well, I have access to a postcard, paid for, now that I know, by the Democrats that Mr. Norman says have supported Darline Graham.*** (I really don't know why they care either way on this one, but it's not a good sign of things that would come with her in office.) Here's the exact wording:
RICHER IN OFFICEOK, well that’s different from your getting SC taxpayer-funded paychecks for only… 18 years. Much different than 22, plus you don’t have a wallet. You have a purse. Ralph Norman’s latest Congressional salary was $174,000. Not bad. Miss Graham was a lowly poor Deep South State government employee only making … $138,000. I quote:
While in office, Ralph Norman has added millions to his personal wealth. South Carolinians deserve a Senator who works the make their lives better – not his own.
CAREER POLITICIAN
Ralph Norman has run for office 14 times over 22 years. Two decades collecting taxpayer-funded checks benefitting his wallet.
MISSED THE JOB
From April to June 2026, Ralph Norman missed nearly one-third of the 125 roll call votes … but still took his taxpayer-funded paycheck!
Darline Graham in 2025 was employed at South Carolina Commission for the Blind and had an annual salary of $138,000, according to public records. This salary was 88 percent higher than the average and 98 percent higher than the median salary in South Carolina Commission for the Blind.I guess the people in the Commission for the Blind payroll department overlooked this. (Sorry!)
I don't know her whole salary schedule over the last decade, but Darline did pretty darned well from the taxpayers' money too. Then, regarding absenteeism (would that every one of them called in sick for a few years!), one wonders how many sick days Miss Graham will have taken during her campaign? Do Congressmen get sick days too?
One point that Congressman Norman made that was pretty clever was to bring up SCrOTUS Justesse Amy Barrett as he touted his support for Judge Kavenaugh. He said words to the effect that Barrett didn't turn out so good. Hmmm, was he hinting that women are simply entitled to change their minds? I think he was, and that was a clever.
Without Mark Lynch,who'd only got a 2nd shot at this due to Linsey Grahamnesty's death, this is another Kang v Kodos election. I'd still like to see the best man win, haha. More importantly, I'd like to see Trump not get his way with his stupidity in backing Darline Graham. We'll find out this evening.
PS: One minor detail I just recalled is: Darline Graham was about to utter "illegal alien", but she must have been told that is NOT OK, as she adjusted it to "immigrant" in mid-word. Perhaps Ralph Norman would have done the same.
* Yes, she used to be Darlene, but, no trannie, Adam Smith and I have both commented that the story is her older brother Lindsey had taught her to spell it differently. Why?
** Speaking of honesty, I honestly don't feel like going back to where this was after a week to give a timestamp. Knock yourself out watching this thing...
*** This was a point he made. Darline did not deny it but claimed to not know anything about the ads. Haha, yeah, sure.

Feline Substance Abuse is No Laughing Matter
Posted On: Monday - August 24th 2026 7:19PM MST
In Topics: Music The Dead Humor
This post is about catnip. It's not like the average American Domestic Shorthair doesn't already have a myriad social problems without it. The younger generation are prone to freaking out at the slightest movement, will climb trees for the sheer hell of it, and run laps on the hardwood floors, drifting on the corners. This usually ends when they turn 9 months to a year old, but still... Also, cats nowadays will eat anything, mac & cheese, broccoli, bell peppers, you name it.
We also have wondered if these feline companions are not actually Spyware for The State.
We're still not sure about that, but anyway, catnip, from the mint family, has the chemical nepetalactone as an ingredient, a compound that repels insects. Upon reading the wiki page on nepetalactones, I see that I should have paid more attention in Organic Chemistry... I mean had I taken it. (It wasn't required for me, and taking "Organic" as an elective seems downright suicidal.) Somewhere in there is the explanation of how catnip is an olfactory drug for cats.
I have not pushed the feline version of "the wacky weed" on a cat since I was a kid. Last time I found a bag of it, someone, a human being this time, thought it WAS the wacky week and brought it home without asking.
That was then. Things have changed since we've had a change in mailmen. The new regular mailman told me that our cat, call him Mr. Meow for Ops Sec, would freak out when he'd walk up to the mailbox. So, the mailman started giving him some treats and also catnip.
It took me a few weeks to put 2 + 2 together and realize why our cat would hang out in the hottest weather on the porch. It wasn't just the treats, as he gets them from us too. He was waiting for
We considered an intervention. The problem is, we couldn't really gather any feline friends or others together that Mr. Meow had interacted with because he has no feline friends, and he'd eaten the other animals he'd interacted with.
Interventions don't work with cats, just as they don't work with Mafia families:
We considered forcibly subjecting Mr. Meow to one of those 12-Step Programs - maybe the car ride alone would have scared him straight.
"Hello, my name is Mr. Meow, and I am a catnip addict."
"Meowwww! Name's Francis Soyer, but every cat calls me Psycho. Anyone pees on my corner of the jeep bumper, and I'll kill ya'!"
There's been good news though. There's a new mailman. I wasn't sure if he was just substituting, so I asked him to ask the catnip dealer to cease & desist, but it turns out he's got the route permanently now. He claims he don't know nuthin' 'bout no catnip dealing. Good. It took Mr. Meow about a week to figure out that waiting like a sick addicted druggie on the porch was futile. The candy man would no longer be forthcoming. Withdrawal has gone pretty well, as far as I can tell...
... strangely, he seems to have picked up a liking to old Steppenwolf tunes.
I would have NEVER guessed that this old song, famous from the 1969 movie Easy Rider, was written 6 years prior by Hoyt Axton, of all people. (He seems so easy-going and country.) Hoyt Axton sang another song involving a drug dealer. Della and the Dealer is a much brighter song, and it puts cats in a favorable light.
There are better Steppenwolf songs. John Kay seemed he was not having a good time during the 1960s. These next group of guys, drugs and all, seemed to have handled the '60s much better. (This song popped up when I searched for The Pusher.)
This fast version of The Grateful Dead's They Love Each Other is from into the '70s a bit. The youtube info. says that in that June 9th of '73, the Dead played first for 1 hour and 40 minutes, took a break and then played a 2 hour set, and then did an hour encore there at RFK Stadium in Washington, FS. That's 4 hours and 4 minutes! What a hardworking band. Sorry about the lack of video on this one. Jerry starts his solo at 01:53.
The Dead didn't write so many songs ABOUT drugs, but they wrote and played some of the songs WITH the drugs. One that I recall, though, is The Candy Man. It has an OK tune, but it's too slow and dark - not in my top 200 Dead songs.

In Topics: Immigration Stupidity History
Peak Stupidity commenter Alarmist has his "boots on the ground" in Europe off and on, so he's commented more than most about the invasion of the continent. (I realize that "the continent", as in "continental breakfast", doesn't include the UK, but sorry, it IS on the continent of Europe geographically.) The Alarmist has commented that the "small boats" that have been invading England, along with everywhere else, should be fired at the stop this immigration invasion, such as has been recently seen in the Spanish town of Cuela. (That invasion is NOT on the continent of Europe, for the record.)
We've used the term "invasion" for mass immigration for years (as has the famous VDare site). In the case of legal immigration, it's not the correct literal term, I suppose. In the case of the illegal Mexicans, Guatemalans, etc. that used to come in a steady trickle that still added up, that's another level up, but unarmed men and often families coming this way was not a literal invasion. The term works though, once you tell people you're talking a half million or a million a year. Then during Dark Brandon's and Allie-hondro Mayorkas' treachery, the influx from strangers around the world could be called, yeah, an invasion, an invited invasion, but an invasion, I'd say.
What do you call this?! Spanish Beach Stormed As Ceuta Chaos Spreads. This invasion is of the Spanish mainland*.
Footage from Cala del Barco near the exclusive La Manga Club in Cartagena captured the moment a large vessel packed with predominantly North African males in their late teens and twenties powered close to shore in broad daylight.The police, mind you. These guys came in boats with 4 big outboards (a ZH commenter mentioned Yamaha LF200XB's, but I'm not sure). The boats dropped them off and went back out. For some reason, the Brits keep dubbing these "small boats". I'd call them landing craft. They are what you use in an amphibious assault.
The men jumped into the water, waded or swam the final metres, and charged inland past stunned sunbathers.
Families packed towels and umbrellas and fled.
One woman was overheard saying "It's a f*****g patera" before urging companions to collect their things and call the police.
In normal times, throughout human history, the very purpose of having governments was for defense of the realm using armies and navies. Has this whole concept been forgotten by the West since World War II or at least the end of the Cold War? (I guess that's what Francis Fukuyama meant by the end of history.)
The foreigners that have been flooding into Europe have come by land or in the landing craft, but there have been no armies firing at them across borders and no navies or shore batteries firing on their boats. This kind of behavior would have been incomprehensible at the Fulda Gap in Germany during the Cold War. In June 1944, 160,000 allied troops landed in ONE DAY on the beaches of Normandy in France, and we know how the Germans fired at them.
On April 2nd of 1982, 550 Argentine troops invaded the British Falkland Islands off the Argentine coast in
Well, nowadays, these Africans and whomever aren't armed with rifles and aren't (nearly!) as organized as were the men in Operation Overlord. It shouldn't be hard to shoot enough of them to persuade more invasion craft and end it. It isn't. ZeroHedge commenters:
Twicesilent: I'm just an ignorant American but does Spain have a navy to defend it's shores?Heh, but it's not the lack of equipment or the manpower though. It's the lack of will. People of the West must get back the will to defend their lands from invasion. That will involve firing at invaders. That thought used to be obvious. One more ZH comment:
Fudge Punch: Pretty much dry docked since 1588.
Honey Badger: The question is, "Does Spain/Europe/EU have the will to defend its/their shores?"Yeah, the comments on ZeroHedge can be a hoot.
Islam conquered Spain beginning in 711 AD... (The last time). Few knew what it looked like because there were only 2 networks back then. Today, we can marvel, in real time, on 100s of channels, what cultural invasion looks like.
I wonder how the apathy and cowardice of today would be viewed by the 'knowledgeable' populace of 711 AD Europe.
I had a fun post in mind for today. This is obviously not that post. I was really busy, so that'll have to come Monday. Thanks for reading and writing in, Peakers. Happy Sunday.
* I had to look it up, but this is not the "Spanish Main" from history but mostly my recollection of an Al Stewart song. The Spanish Main is of the American continents.

Hysteria yesterday, hysteria today, hysteria forever!
Posted On: Friday - August 21st 2026 10:48AM MST
In Topics: Immigration Stupidity Feminism Female Stupidity
"It can't be! It can't be!", she cries in Spanish.
Peak Stupidity has been trying to keep away from all the news stories, or "current events", what we called them as youngsters. Commenting on stories that our readers surely already know about takes time away from our remarking on more general stupidity and the spread thereof. However, since Immigration Stupidity is by far our greatest concern, we feel obligated to briefly discuss the invasion of the Spanish city in Africa, Ceuta. As has been the case lately at least, the Female stupidity aspect of this simply MUST be addressed.
First, I have found it hard to figure out the pronunciation of the place! Spanish is not a hard language to pick syllables out of, but everyone involved says it so quickly! The web has blurbs telling me to listen to 10 pronunciations - NO, I can't get it by listening - that's the problem. OK, finally, it's "say-ooh-tuh".
How do these invasions start? When did formerly sane countries decide that one could not defend themselves from invasion?
That might be another post, but that the invasion of Ceuta happened at all, and the much larger invasion of England across the channel by the "small boats" (just call them "landing craft" - that might clear peoples' minds) is due to these "migrants" having known beforehand that they wouldn't be shot climbing a fence or stepping onto the beach. Taking care of that is men's work, but it won't happen when women are running the show, in any capacity.
This week, we've discussed the subsequent taking over of whole communities by the invaders or, often, invitees this week (particularly wrt Moslems, but in America, it's not confined to that particular crowd - there are various and sundry of these crowds). How does that get started?
As we described, one wouldn't get very far telling the whole truth in one of those town council meetings early on. Make one statement about how we don't want to change the country and we don't want any of these people here whatsoever, and you'll be shouted down by hysterical women, with the words bigot, racist, and creep being used to make sure you know to STF down or get out! Hysteria would ensue.
Well, it's little later on in the game, and the women are hysterical again.
In case you're wondering, the Moslem guy there's trying do a William Shatner T.J. Hooker move. He's butchering it.
Oh, It CAN be! It CAN be! What would you possibly expect to happen if your land doesn't repel invaders because, muh deep compassion?
I can't say I blame them for being hysterical NOW. However, had women in general calmed down over the previous years and instead let the men take care of business and defend them and their homes from invasion, they WOULD be able to walk in the streets of Ceuta safely. ("How many of that can sit and judge me, ever walked the streets of Ceuta?")
If you watch more of the short video above, past where I featured the hysteria, you'll see women that STILL hadn't learned, at least a couple of weeks ago. Lest the reader think I'm blaming all of the Population Replacement Programme on the women, I blame men too... for listening to these women.
Peak Stupidity has been known to attempt, occasionally successfully, to link appropriate music to our post content. Hopefully the reader hasn't been worried the entire time reading this post that he would see Def Leppard's Hysteria embedded here. Nope. Not agonna to it. I like some of the music of that '80s - '90s "Hair Band" genre, that one's just not a. great tune, IMO. (Some REO Speedwagon, OTOH, that's another story.)
I had the lyric line above, so why not some Dwight Yoakam today, with little bits of that Bakersfield Sound, with Buck Owens?
Hey, you don't know me, but you don't like me.
You say you care less how I feel.
But how many of you that sit and judge me
ever walked the streets of ... Cueta?
The Bakerfield Sound. That was olde America and still olde California, after just a small olde timey invasion of the Central Valley by, you gotta admit, a somewhat better crowd.
PS: Yeah, that's another Modernity News Paul Joseph Watson report in here. I still don't like the quick edits, but he does a nice job with his heavy coverage of the PPR all over the Western World. The guy who wrote the "Tyler Durden" approved ZeroHedge post linked to a the top must be his brother - it says Steve Watson.

Are our LEOs getting LARGER?
Posted On: Thursday - August 20th 2026 9:26AM MST
In Topics: Humor US Police State
They're not MY LEOs, though, as I've been against* the expansion of the U.S. Police State since the Waco Texas Massacre in 1993. Also, seeing as how I'm a water sign, I don't particularly get along with Leo's to begin with.
As for our post title, Betteridge's law of headlines** says that the answer should be "no". That's true here too. Guilty as charged. "Our" LEOs are not getting larger - they've BEEN larger.
Yeah, Leon too. Cops have not been an exception to the average big weight gain over the last half century of Americans and people all over the world. They COULD recruit the more in-shape guys, but... nah. It's not just that. Since these outfits have been greatly militarized over arguably the last 3 decades, the officers, including these US Marshalls, have so much PPR (Personal Protective Equiment - remember that from such Panics at the Kung Flu PanicFest?) and also POE, it must add another 20 lb.
When you have 8 of the 11 super-sized cops together, for some reason all needed to make an arrest of one alleged pervert perp, you're talking nearly a ton of mass concentrated on 100 square feet ... on an old residential 2nd floor deck, that might have some rot in the structure... and not particularly well-connected to the house, you get Terrifying Moment Deck COLLAPSES Beneath U.S. Marshals During Missouri Raid on Convicted Sex Offender — Nine Officers Plunge to Ground. This happened in Huntsville, Missouri (Randolph County, in the north-central part of the State).
All that for:
The officers were participating in Operation Adam’s Watch, a nationwide U.S. Marshals initiative targeting fugitive sex offenders and offenders who failed to register their addresses.Yeah, but for one guy who failed to fill out a form on the web portal? That's a lot of concentrated manpower for that small bit of trouble, considering also that:
Munoz was reportedly not inside the apartment when officers arrived.Are stake-outs no longer a thing, or at least a check on the vehicles present?
Note the average weight difference from this time, 46 years ago. (Yeah, I know they're stunt men. Even the stunt men now are probably heavier.)
The harrowing Missouri footage is another reminder of the dangers law enforcement officers face while hunting dangerous fugitives and convicted predators.Or, one could tread more carefully, and a couple of guys could have been sent out instead of 11.
* Peak Stupidity has written quite a lot in support of ICE lately. That may seem a contradiction, but that's only if you see them the way the ctrl-left wants us to. Will ICE get out of hand and be the Police State? I don't know, but right now, things have only gotten violent when they are prevented by Sancitmony Cities from doing their actual non-violent jobs, as in the past - Immigration and Customs Enforcemnt.
** Ian Betteridge, of the journal Tech Crunch, in '09 at least, explained it like this:
This [previous Tech Crunch] story is a great demonstration of my maxim that any headline which ends in a question mark can be answered by the word "no". The reason why journalists use that style of headline is that they know the story is probably bullshit, and don't actually have the sources and facts to back it up, but still want to run it.

The Whole Truth wins one
Posted On: Wednesday - August 19th 2026 6:53PM MST
In Topics: Immigration Stupidity Bible/Religion
Continued from our previous post The Whole Truth.
We've got two stories here, both taken from The Gateway Pundit. Peak Stupidity has long been frustrated by the hype and National Enquireresqe topics on that site, but proprietor Jim Hoft does do a great job reporting both personal and policy stories on the immigration invasion. I'd recalled wrong yesterday that there were two wins here, but it's one win and one uncertain decision as of today.
That looks like a good amount of acreage with the large structure (73,000 ft2), very dear, to put it in British, in a place like Nassau County (Long Island), New York. Yet a Moslem group paid only $5 million for the whole deal, a place that was a Catholic school since a century ago and then since 1972 a home for Catholic priests. The Moslems have plans to make it a 120-odd kid boarding school with a mosque. GP reports Long Island Residents Outraged Over Plans to Turn a Former Catholic Seminary Into a Muslim School for Boys With a Mosque. Yes, they're outraged because ...
Muh ZONING!!! The residents of Saxon St. in the town of Islip say this proposal violates zoning restrictions. It probably does, and one guy in the video news report below even notes that the town didn't want an old folks home there too, for the same reason... a Moslem old folks home... (ha, I kid on the last part.) I take it the Catholic priests weren't so numerous and didn't drive so much, and the school of 54 years ago and prior.
Who would I be to argue this with the residents? This excuse must be all they've got. I hasten to add in this post, that it's not always just cowardice about being honest but perhaps, knowing the diverse and/or left-wing officials they are dealing with, honesty would not result in the best policy. I don't know. I don't like the way the residents attempt to fight. A few let the cat somewhat out of the bag.
You may note the accent of the foreigner who's planning this school and mosque, one Erol Akyurek, and his plans to take over the area with a different culture. He makes it all very clear at 0:43 in: "They don't need to fraid of [sic]* nothin'. People come here like to poor pray(?) This is for our future generations, for... good for our kids." Who are these "our", Kemo-yurek?
Oh,, the White people are fighting back hard. "Many even have signs on their lawn." Now, that there's hard-core resistance!
This is just another example of what we discussed yesterday. When the zoning problem gets fixed, the Islamic school and mosque will get started. Also, because that defense is so obviously weak, the Moslem residents of Islip, like your Erol Akyurek there, can see this and will act accordingly. They will take the neighborhood over, Islippers. He was not mincing words, and he didn't even play along with the zoning game.
The old lady said "We don't want 120 High School kids living here..." Now, if she'd said "We don't want 120 Moslems living here...", that'd be different, but she wasn't gonna say that. The one younger lady did say "I think this would be atrocious for the community." That's getting to the whole truth.
(This is just a screenshot, not the video.)
That deal has not been settled as of today.
OTOH, there is happy news from Lancaster, S. Carolina, a small city to the southeast of Charlotte, NC. South Carolina County Unanimously Rejects Mosque Permit After Residents Protest: ‘Islam Is Not a Religion — It’s a Takeover’. Yeah!! Now that's the whole truth and nothing but the truth. Bravo, Lancaster residents!
It's been a stealth operation with one Arafath Mohammad’s Waxlan having bought a house in a normal neighborhood, but then it turned out he planned to demolish the house and build the 3,000 ft2 Mosque there. I hope to find the video from that tweet near the bottom of the GP page - it has both sides of the story, but the speakers from both sides have convinced me that, NO! JUST! NO!
(Same thing - just a screenshot. Sorry.)
Here's the money quote, the rest of that tweet:
One resident went viral after she declared, “This is not about a place of worship; this is not about religion; Islam is not a religion, it’s a takeover.”Who is this most excellent "one resident" in that tweet video?! Weirdly, what I like the most is that she pronounced Moslem, yes, the old Peak Stupidity way, "mah-zlim" as opposed to "moo-slim". I can only hope "one resident" from Lancaster is a reader here. She damn well should be. The man who followed did a good job, and for some reason, the council member running the show didn't get on his butt, as he had with the woman, and steer his anti-Mosque statement thusly:
She went on to read a passage from the Quran, which states, “Make war on the infidels living in your neighborhood.”
“I just want to say this is not about a place of worship. This is not about religion. Islam is not a religion; it’s a takeover. And if you’ve done any studies, if you listen to any of the news media, you will find out that that is true,” she added.
Council Chair Brian Carnes repeatedly tried to steer testimony back to land-use and infrastructure issues such as traffic and compatibility with the residential neighborhood, reminding speakers that the proceeding was quasi-judicial and could not consider religious beliefs directly.Well, if you know what's good for you and YOUR family, Brian Carnes, you might want to consider religious beliefs directly. No, no more excuses. If he's to be fair to his American townsfolk, when he runs these hearings, Lancaster Council Chair Brian Carnes ought to encourage residents to speak the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth... along with a little excess ranting - that's always a plus.
You know we don't end up in this high a note most of the time, so we'll bring up one small point because we must. One thing that may have helped out these residents of Lancaster, South Carolina is "Muh Indian Land". That can be an ace in the hole, what with the old graveyards that Indian ghosts may dance out of on summer nights, but it wasn't one the residents at the hearing pulled out - they just pulled the wild whole truth card.
We need to see more of this. Take note, Americans. This is #WINNING, finally.

The Whole Truth
Posted On: Tuesday - August 18th 2026 7:29PM MST
In Topics: Immigration Stupidity Female Stupidity
From the title, the reader may thing this post is about legal/court matters, but it's not. This post is about people around the world who are trying to resist the Population Replacement Program being being afraid to tell the whole truth. (I'm not sure this one requires the "nothing but the truth" part.) We'll explain the what - the whole rather than the partial truth, the how, and the why.
That's not Chicago, neither the band nor the city. It's Dearbornistan, Michigan, still the headquarters of Ford Motor Company, but now one of the centers of Islam in America. Moslems comprise about 45 thousand of the 110,000 residents.
Oh, wait, but the 5 times daily ululating Moslem calls to prayer are not disturbing to the Christians or anyone else in Dearbornistan. Snopes fact-checked this!
When mass immigration stupidity - legal or illegal - was confined to a few special places, the Chinatowns of NYC and San Francisco, the Cuban area of Miami, a large portion of southern California, Dearbornistan as mentioned, well, one could just not live in these foreign countries within ours. It was annoying but easy to handle. It's not like that now. Strange foreigners are being purposely imported en masse to formerly White, at least American towns and cities all over. Just one example that was made famous by Donald Trump and some cats and dogs was Springfield, Ohio - see Targeted Cultural Destruction and a deep dive into Tragic Dirt. The mass destruction via Somalians, Haitians, and other Africans is pretty recent.
Some of these "folks" have lived in America awhile and are spreading around. (Of course, until Trump's efforts, they've been importing their kinfolk too on all manner of visas like all the rest.) Large communities of Moslems are no longer confined to a few areas.
It might come as a surprise for Americans to learn of a Mosque or Islamic school being planned nearby in their small town, or maybe not. We reported on the story of a town in Alabama, a suburb, really, of Birmingham, in our post Better Hooverville than Hooverstan. That one had a happy ending.... BUT... it wasn't pleasing to me.
The problem was that the whole truth was not told by the population petitioning for the denial of the permit for this school. It was the traffic! See, there'd be too much traffic if the Moslem school was built there! (Put it somewhere else.)
Nah. In the post I embedded a map and talked about the traffic. The traffic wasn't going to be a problem. Even it were going to be, that's NOT why the school shouldn't be built. I broached this topic in that post, while I also mentioned a couple of old posts having nothing to do with immigration but with black dysfunction instead - It's a Beautiful Day in the Leafy Neighborhood. and It's another beautiful day in the leafy neighborhood ...
Regarding any such mass influxes of foreigners, traffic, the noise, maybe housing prices from an influx of more of these people, or, they have not been vetted, all that may be some truth. It's not the whole truth.
The whole truth is: We don't want these Moslems in our American towns! Why don't we as Americans bring up the whole truth at the meetings?
Let's head overseas in our minds to those protests against mass immigration and cultural destruction in the UK/Ireland. Peak Stupidity was heartened to see the many videos, but we still had this to say: Irish Rioters - Cheerful videos but, please, "It's NOT the vetting, stupid.". I would think once you'd gotten your courage up and made the effort to get out into the streets, yelling through a bullhorn, chanting, holding up the nearly-banned old flags, and maybe setting a couple of small fires, you'd be emboldened to tell the whole truth. I didn't see enough of that.
Most of the complaints were:
1) Not enough vetting!
2) They're using up the welfare money meant for us.
3) There's two-tier justice.
These are all pieces of truth but not the whole truth. The problem with bringing up the traffic congestion in Hoover, Alabama or these 3 legitimate concerns in the UK is two-fold:
A) What if these problems get fixed? "OK, we've got the new Islamo-bypass road planned, with an exit right to the school. The school is now approved. Thank you for your attention to this matter."
For the UK: (1) "We've got men working in shifts vetting Somalians and Haitians starting from the elementary schooling in the old country." (2) "Taxes will be raised so you all can get the same welfare money as our newcomer migrants." (3) We'll go ahead and prohibit complaints about the two-tiered justice. Splendid!" I jest a bit here, but the point is that they'll find a way to mollify those who bring up only parts of the truth so that they won't get called nasty words.
B) This shows weakness. You will lose in the long run this way. Even if the traffic doesn't get fixed, once there are 2 Moslems, 1 cucked White man afraid of the 2 Moslems, and 3 women on the 11-member city council, that'll be all she wrote. Use of unnecessary violence in the implementation of Sharia Law... has been approved!*
I asked above why we don't bring that up at the meetings**? I got into this way, way back, in Nice Church ladies destroy Lewiston, Maine, explaining how this sort of thing starts small:
The poor bastards who’ve got to live with the huge change to their quality of life and culture for now on (with always a downward trend), know right away it's gonna be a bad thing, and may go to those initial town hall meetings "conversations":I will update this with my newest thoughts on how the respectable compassionate ladies will act at these things.
“We’re just bringing in downtrodden families, plus maybe a couple of poor teenagers, from Somalia. I hope there are no racist xenophobes here. If so, it’s only 15 asylum-seekers to our town of 30 thousand – how can you be so mean and nasty to object?!” Well, nobody objects. Nobody in town wants to have everyone else there look at him like that nasty foul-mouthed bad guy that isn’t compassionate enough to provide a “room at the inn”.*
At the next asylum-seeker meeting for another 20 asylum-seekers, its just the same, except you won’t even find 1/2 the people there from town to show up to object, as they can imagine how embarrassing it would be. This goes on for years, and people have kids. People find it easier to move to a different town than to say anything. You’d think that’d be silly… but no, it's pretty much all that's left to do.
"I just don't want Moslems to be here, period. It's gonna change our whole way of life. If we'd wanted to live in Pakistan, we'd have moved to Pakistan." (That's the way I'd put it, anyway.)
"GASP. Well, I've never heard such racist evil hate out of anyone! Sir, honestly, you're pretty creepy, and it's making me feel uncomfortable."
So, you creep on out the room, as they don't want to hear it, and they won't understand the problem until they have masses of migrants raping their daughters and jumping into their bedrooms at night. During the meetings, that woman could only imagine so far as that creepy racist guy who told the whole truth, making her very uncomfortable, not this sort of thing:
(I know, they talk fast, and they hold their phones wrong.)
She's a little more than uncomfortable... I'd call it terrified and justifiably hysterical. Hmmmm, one wonders what this young lady would have had to say about one of those creepy guys bringing up racist remarks back at the community meetings for Moroccan migrant schools or something. But, that was then. The women are demanding action, NOW.
Back to the homeland and these frequent community battles over Mosques or Moslem schools, as far as things have advanced, I think these same women today might know to kinda shut up now and let people say whatever they've got for an excuse to block the efforts. They really don't want their daughters to end up wearing burkas. What if I go up there during my 2 minutes, say nothing about traffic congestion, but instead say: I don't like these people. I don't want the school here, I don't want them in my home town, and I want them out of the damn country!? Would I still get called a racist creepy guy, or would the women and cucked men stand down? The whole truth must come out, or we're not living long like this.
Ha, I realized how much of this I have explained in those previous posts about half way in, but the main point of writing this was to get to some recent good news on the matter - that'll have to come tomorrow.
* Obscure but memorable Blues Brothers reference.
** I exclude myself, as I did bring up the possible black problem in that zoom meeting described in the posts on the leafy neighborhood. I haven't had the opportunity to do this regarding plans for an immigrant invasion in my town, and I hope I never have to. If so, I'll be there at the meeting - with the truth. I don't need to fit in with the neighborhood ladies who are lucky to be only concerned with "MOAR 4-way stop signs!"

I suppose this will end as Female stupidity week combined with China week. This combines the latter not really with the former, but the subject is a Chinese woman at least.
Peak Stupidity has written a whole bunch about China. We don't pretend to be experts, but your chief blogger has been to the Middle Kingdom either 11 or an even dozen times, and I feel myself somewhat more qualified to comment on the place than some rando website operator who watches youtube videos of young White girls discussing the place.
I've written about social problems there in a couple of posts 1 1/2 years ago: Back to China: All that glitter. and Back to China: That glitter? It ain't all gold. I said I wouldn't get into economics then, but now, I can tell you there's a big unemployment problem in China. That comes both from my reading and (more importantly) from personal contacts within the place. Here's one.
This middle-aged single Mom with one grown up kid has been employed in numerous jobs in/around the same big city. Hell, they're ALL big cities. For the last decade or more she's been an HR lady at various companies. Yeah, she's one of THOSE people, but I hasten to add that this is not the age of the attached Communist cadres, as during Mao's time or 21st century America. I imagine she did the actual necessary work regarding pay and such.
Speaking of pay, well, she's unemployed again now because the last company she worked went totally bankrupt. Yet, they owed her 20,000 yuan - about $3,000 in back pay. This company had produced liquor though, and there was still plenty of inventory left. So, to be fair, they paid her back wages in hard liquor. Her apartment is full of liquor bottles. I don't think she even drinks! Maybe she will start.
Now, this is amusing and demonstrates one of the things I like about China. These company people didn't feel the need to go all cover-your-ass legal-eagle. Giving their former employee her back pay in the form of liquor shows some caring and some thinking outside the
Our Chinese friends have their social problems too, but they don't play the White man's blues to make it better. We've featured this song way back once already. It's time for George Thorogood (and his Delaware Destroyers) to tell us about his own unemployment woes and explain his solution.
Have a happy Sunday, Peakers. Thanks for reading, writing, or at least listening.

Money exchanger for the Chinese UnBanked
Posted On: Friday - August 14th 2026 7:41PM MST
In Topics: Immigration Stupidity China Legal Stupidity
I don't know if you can call Peak Stupidity's writings on the details of Chinese illegal immigration a scoop. That's an old newsman's term. In the modern world, it's often hard to find out who really comes up with a story first. This is the closest thing to a scoop that we've written about.. We know the people with the inside information.
Our interest in the Chinese illegal alien racket started at least by Summer of '17, the year we wrote "(let me tell ya') It's More Fun, Bein' An Illegal Alien.". (43 y/o Genesis song referenced.) We started with some back-o-the-envelope speculation there:
The number of illegal Chinese residents may be much more of a surprise to Americans. If you don't live in a medium or large size city (IN the city that is, not the 'burbs") you may not know, as Chinese people LUV the city, as described here. You won't find out easily without being with someone who knows the language, but much of the help at the myriad of Chinese restaurants in medium and even smaller towns are illegal Chinese people. Add in the massive amounts of people in the Chinatowns of NYC and the west coast cities, and just simple estimates can get one over 2,000,000. I will admit that is just a 1/2 order-of-magnitude guess - let's say 1 - 3 million. No, most do not cross over from Mexico, Canada, or ride in shipping containers. Most come via some type of visa, but overstay forever. The US does not have any good system being used to track exits, as THEY DON'T WANT TO DO IT, or the elites DON'T WANT THEM TO!
Then, we had personal accounts in our '18 post The China to King Buffet pipeline.
This brings up places like the King Buffet, China Wok, Canton Garden, Red Dragon, Red Lotus, Red Guard Cafe (hold on, wait!), etc. The Peak Stupidity blog does not do "scoops" per se, as we don't have Woodward and Bernstein on the staff [we fired those 2 Commies years ago - Editor].As I wrote, it makes no sense to think that some goings-on that are not particularly locally specific don't happen everywhere else. We don't live right on the US border or in some special illegal alien drop-off point. One CAN extrapolate, and we did.
This is as close as we can get, as we have two sources, one Chinese and one American, that have made it clear that just about all the waiters and waitresses at the Chinese buffets in our area are illegal aliens. There is no reason that wouldn't be the case all over this country, as we are not special here.
Staff at these restaurants have talked in Chinese to my source, and though not discussing the whole process by which they arrived in this area, made it clear enough just from the chat. The American source is in the know, due to a friendship with the owner of one of the biggest of these places, with my estimate being 30 or so wait staff. The owner has described how these employees are arranged to come a couple of days bus ride from Newark, New Jersey. He described the plain white charter-type buses, and how these people are shuffled around over great distances to other "gigs" before ... what next? ...but it's borne out by personal stories from both illegal aliens and the restaurant owners.
In a follow-up, after time spent at a NYC Ramen noodle restaurant (it's a little better than the 17¢ packages I'd get during college), I had learned and read about some even more specific information on where so many of these Chinese illegal aliens come from. It also backed up my previous posts. I knew it! The Fuzhounese, the Chinese buffets, and the America Changle Association.
Here's another update with a different aspect of this story, the MONEY. The Chinese guy in this story is someone I've only talked to 3 or 4 times. Let's call him Mr. He. A good friend knows him better. He and his family of 5 came from China, where he was a lawyer, to California a few years back and then moved to our State. How exactly He makes the money to support the family while the whole family is just going to school is something we've wondered about.
Last time I talked to him He mentioned something about the Chinese restaurants, and I brought up the illegal alien labor. Mr. He, of course, knows all about it, but, in addition, He told me he helps these waiters/waitresses, cooks and busboys convert their US dollars to Chinese Yuan for sending back to China.
Because
The question I had for He is how does he not pay a big currency exchange fee? Does he pay a very low fee due to changing lots of money? He explained this, and it was only partially his Chinese accent that made it hard for me to get it. I might never know. I suppose he's got this business due to these Chinese illegals being "unbanked"*, as the bleeding hearts worry about. Yet, they could "wire" their own money to China with a fee, so the lack of an exchange fee is part of this deal somehow.
The Chinese people are a much more organized lot than the Hispanics, and that holds for coming to America illegally and living here illegally too. Remember the white charter buses out of Newark, New Jersey. They've got a system. Mr. He is part of it. He, BTW, is just one of the millions of Chinese people here on non-immigrant visas who will stay here for good one way or another.** Whether it's an unending serious of student and/or work visas (for what, we still don't know) or just staying and serving the unbanked, I'd put a lot of money on this... in dollars or yuan.
Therefore, if Trump & Co. ever exact large remittance fees on money "wired" to Latin America and overseas - mostly by illegal aliens - the Hispanics may put up with it. "Aye, Carumba!" The Chinese will find a way to get around it. The Indians will probably hack the system and screw it all up for everybody.
PS: About those currency exchange fees. Before we went to Chile some years ago, I asked a teller at my bank what the charges were for exchanging dollars for Chilean Pesos. "12 dollars", she told me. Excellent, well I figured we'd get a bunch of cash for the trip.
Another day though, as I checked to make sure which day's spot price we'd use or something she told me "Oh, the spot price plus 7%." Uhhh, lady, then it doesn't cost twelve bucks. Is not that 7% a part of the cost? Nah, forget it!
* Being unbanked is not always a bad thing. We call it part of being "off the grid".
** He really enjoys taking selfies of him and his visiting family with my friend's guns, lots of guns. I suppose that is good publicity for us, at least.

Heidi Beirich: Piercing the Corporate Whale
Posted On: Thursday - August 13th 2026 10:21AM MST
In Topics: Humor Trump US Feral Government ctrl-left Legal Stupidity
Yea!! Finally, we see ONE arrest of the enemy. After a year and a half of a justifiably vindictive Trump-47, we've got ONE, a big White one.
We said good riddance to Pam Blondie 4 months back, and Todd Blanch has been Acting Attorney General until this week when he was confirmed. I would think he would have ACTED, Attorney General-wise, to make more arrests by now, but this is a start.
The story, from the NY Post, that has Peak Stupidity excited is Ex-Southern Poverty Law Center CFO charged in brazen scheme to secretly pay $1.2M to white supremacist groups. This probably only happened at all due to one of our ctrl-left enemies having slept through an alarm and failed to hire a California judge in time to stop it. Heidi Beirich was arrested and appeared in court.
“There is a new indictment that includes the former CFO of SPLC,” Attorney General Todd Blanche confirmed at an unrelated news conference at DOJ headquarters, adding that there had been “an arrest made,” though Beirich’s attorney said she appeared voluntarily in court.Now, this is somewhat akin to violent Prohibition-era gangster Al Copone being hauled in for not paying his income taxes. That's not really what the public was worried about, but it was an excuse that put him away. In this case, the $PLC has been dubbing any pro-White, or at least not anti-, organization a "hate group" but found to be funding people within these "hate groups" with their donor's money... to gin up more hate I guess. It wasn't personal but strickly business.
Well, it was a LITTLE personal, actually. Informant "F-9", who broke into the West Virginia based National Alliance to steal boxes of documents* for Miss Beirich to use in her Hatewatch blog, was paid $1.2 milion of $PLC donor money over the years, and guess what? He was doin' her! F-9 was doing Hiedi Beirich - I'm guessing that's what the $1.2 million was for - the spying was gratis.
Some of that funding went toward costs for the wood and fuel required for cross-burnings, publishing racist pamphlets or extremist literature and other work to maintain the SPLC’s network of “field sources.”Wood and fuel expenses, haha! Seriously, you should be able to write off wood and fuel expenses.
In fairness to the other side, here's a comment from the National Alliance:
“I knew it was that fat, ugly hog Heidi Beirich,” National Alliance chairman William White Williams, 78, previously told The Post from his home in east Tennessee, confirming the indictment’s descriptions.William White Williams is the perfect name for a pro-White man in east Tennessee. What is really funny is this part:"... confirming the indictment's descriptions". Heh! That was a clever insertion, Post writer Josh Christenson. Hey, hey, let's be nice. Don't be hateful.
The blog now yields to the defense:
“Dr. Beirich is innocent, and this case is without merit,” her attorney, Proctor, said in a statement. “We believe the charges against her and the SPLC are politically motivated, and Dr. Beirich has been targeted in this case because of the important work she has done to combat hate groups and extremists.”This woman's whole life is politically motivated.. and hatefully so.
[Sir! Sit down, Sir! You're out of order!]
Beirich, who joined the SPLC in 1999, is the first employee of the Alabama-based nonprofit to have been named as a participant in the wire fraud, bank fraud and money laundering conspiracy.Yeah, it's as with Al Capone. The real crime perpetrated by her outfit, destruction of American society, has not been addressed. It IS true that the Trump administration has changed US Gov't policy such that agencies are no longer to treat the $PLC, ADL, and others as the go-to sources for guidance on whom we all should hate on.
[I'm out of order? You're out of order! This whole country's out of order!]
That was a small win. This is bigger one. I wouldn't bet a dollar on Heidi Beirich ever spending a day in jail, but this arrest and indictment is a start. Hopefully, Tood Blanche is, to quote another old move with legal scenes, "just getting started."
PS: This post's title comes from the President of a club that once had me as a member. He was German. He discussed some rules changes made in the by-laws so that, in case of an accident, nobody would be able to "pierce the corporate whale". There were laughs all around, and this phrase is in use to this day.
* Who do you know that still has "documents" in this paperless world of ours? He should have just broke through the portal - it'd have saved on travel costs.

South Carolina GOP post-Grahmnesty US Senate Primary Results
Posted On: Wednesday - August 12th 2026 5:38PM MST
In Topics: Elections '16 - '26
See also our previous posts Primary v General Elections - - Trump meddling in South Carolina's Business - - Mark Lynch for (R-SC) US Senator - - Being Lindsey Grahmnesty: S. Carolina US Senate Candidates - Mark Lynch Rocks!.
That was that for South Carolina businessman and primary candidate Mark Lynch. That's the bad news. He's out, along with 3 other serious candidates - no others got even 1% of the ~ 335,000 votes cast in yesterday's SC Special GOP Primary election.
335,000 out of a State with a population of 5.6 million, or 6% might seem a poor turnout. The idea is for this to have been an election by the GOP voters, so of a smaller set. However, most people don't understand how important this one is - there are only 100 Senators, and the winner here is very likely to be one of them, and it's yet another Tuesday to go find the polling place. We'll note how many come out in 2 more weeks and compare.
Could a good number of D's have come out? Only a signed attestation that one was not a Democrat who'd voted in the Primary already was holding anyone back, and people will lie. What would be the point though? How would one sabotage this, by voting for Darline or against Darline. Who would one vote for to be against her or to screw the results?
Peak Stupidity first endorsed Mark Lynch due to his having come in 2nd behind Lindsey Grahmnesty (we can't help it) the first time around. I guess that means nothing, the more I thought about it. Other possible candidates would have refrained from wasting their donors' money against a near sure thing. They've got thousands of signs to pay for every 2 years. Two in the results above (and that debate) are active US Congressmen and one (Mark Sanford) is a former Rep. Mark Lynch, OTOH, has never been in office. Same with Darline, come to think of it, but... Trump.
These results are a disappointment for me, as last week (see our post), we saw from a small debate that Mr. Lynch was by far the only non-talking-points spouting standard politician. Alas, that's not what the people wanted. More likely too, they didn't watch any of that but just picked the guy they'd heard of most.
The good news is that there will be a run-off. Darline Graham got a fairly close plurality but not a majority. I like the system South Carolina has with the run-offs for any results with no candidate getting a majority of votes.
The bad news again is that the runner-up who will face her in 2 weeks is the worst of the other four. Earlier today, I spent 20 minutes checking out US SC-5th District Congressman Ralph Norman's voting record. It's haphazard and meaningless. He stands for nothing, as far as I see. He resembles, well, I might as well paste n a list of 75 other Senators that he resembles.
We don't care so much now. I still hope Ralph Norman beats Darline Graham in 2 weeks (minus a day), even if it's just for the result that Trump doesn't get what he wants. What he wants is stupid for South Carolina. Still the little bit left of good news is that, if 2/3 of the voters voted against Darline, wouldn't it be close to that with the one guy against her? That'd be an interesting question to ponder, but maybe I should ponder it 2 weeks from now.)
PS: I wonder how many sick days from her SC government jobs Darline Graham has used up so far in the campaign.
PPS: Spellcheck doesn't like "Darline". I saw your comment, Mr. Smith, and I also wrote before (somewhere, maybe not here) that Lindsey taught her to spell her name that way after it had been "Darlene". Who knows why?

Sex in Sports: The Men's WNBA
Posted On: Tuesday - August 11th 2026 6:18PM MST
In Topics: Genderbenders Feminism Female Stupidity Bread and Circuses
Continued from The Women's NBA. I changed the two titles slightly so this one wouldn't be ghey.
The political interest in the WNBA has to do with the Genderbender "Trannie" nonsense. Player Sophie Cunningham, the hot one*, is against there being ex-men in women's sports, or at least the Womens National Basketball Association in which she plays.
That question, as if it ever should have needed to be asked, has been a big one in national politics. At the local level, Peak Stupidity mentioned a humorous story of ex-man participation in Minnesota sports by 6 ft. tall formerly Charlie Dean (I'd have guessed Marion) Rothenberger. He pitched a 6-0 shutout to help his team win the girl's softball championship - you go, ex-man! Peak Stupidity had two points to make in our post on the story, A big softball in the fight against stupidity.
1) The "softball" is that, though this was not an intentional trolling job, Mr. Rothenberger pissed off enough softball girls, parents, and fans, with his great pitching, that it likely set back the movement against your Tampon Timmahs and such.
2) There's no reason for the Federal Gov't or even ANY government to be involved in this stupidity. From our post:
Can Americans ever realize that not every single facet of life must be decided by government? It's bad enough so many things are. Unlike vaccines (at times), girls softball is not mandatory. You don't have to let, or even make, your girls play in this league and put up with this genderbender stupidity. These girls in the Minnesota High School league aren't making a living at it.The current Genderbender story involves WNBA basketball. Sophie Cunningham put the common-sense thoughts that men are better than women in sports AND men can't just up and become women to words. Ooooh, big fow paw there, Sophie. Nobody in the league wanted to hear that out loud.
Sickening. [From the story linked-to]
Well, yeah it is, but what's really sickening is that you people feel so helpless about this and won't DO ANYTHING. Don't complain about the judges and legislators. Don't go asking for Trump for help. (He has helped, though it's not really his business, and he'll probably TACO out of this one too.)
This is really easy, like hitting a slow-pitch softball sailing right over the plate. Quit en masse. Play your games at another ballpark in town. Take your balls and go home. (Pun not intended and hopefully not applicable!)
See there are two groups of Commies and weirdos that are crashing here in the intersection of Feminism and Genderbending, respectively. "Intersectionality" is the term used a lot to describe this clash of stupidities. In this case it's an intersection with no
The Feminists are insistent that women can do anything men can do and BETTER. So, rules not withstanding, it shouldn't be a problem for the women if some WNBA team wants to draft and play a couple of men. I mean, if their stupid asses want to lose like that, let 'em. The Genderbenders are insistent that these ex-men are just that, no longer men. If they are woman, they should be just as good or better than men. You'd want them on your own team, and the rules obviously allow women on the court.
The truth is, of course... not... at all like this. The girls on the court, the coaches, the fans, EVERYBODY, knows it's silly BS. But, this is both of these groups' stories, and they're stickin to 'em. At least one coach, Stephanie White of the Indiana Fevers***, is stickin' to it, under pressure of trolls, that is, a few former decent basketball playing men. She's between a rock and hardplace, declare "bullshit" or keep on bluffing until The Fevers loses a game in a 100-0 shutout. Home court fans don't take too kindly to shutouts in basketball.
What can Ms White say? Well, this:
“I don’t ever believe that exclusion is an answer,” White said, deviating from Cunningham’s stance. “I just don’t. I do think, you know, when we think about various levels of sport, various governing bodies of sport and things that go into that, like I said, I’m not— I’m not educated enough at the different levels. I know growing up I played with the boys all the time. There weren’t girl sports.Oh, I bet you did. "Not educated enough." and "Exclusion is not the answer." That's not a decision. Will she let ex-men play on the team or not?
This guy, one Royce White, played basketball at one point - I really don't know or care to keep up. He's decided to try out of the WNBA. I enjoyed this video of him below. Not only is it a great trolling job, calling the bluff of Stephanie White, but he tossed out some great MAGA comments at the end.
I came upon Royce White's video on The Gateway Pundit with Former NBA Player Royce White Throws on a Wig and Embraces His “Feminine Era” Ahead of 2027 WNBA Draft Bid. Uhhh, "auru", maybe, Jim Hoft? I'm not sure about that from the guy's quote.
Oh, he's a GOP US Senate candidate for Minnesota. I'm sure he'll go far with that... better keep this day job.
The 6-foot-8, 35-year-old is now testing out a blonde wig and declaring he’s entered his “feminine era” as he prepares for the 2027 WNBA Draft.There's the day job that might pay handsomely. It's probably all for the fame, campaign, and the money, but either way, nice job, Mr. White. (Hey, there were 2 "Whites" in this whole silly story but no White men involved. Ain't that America?)
“As I stated a few days ago, I am declaring for the 2027 WNBA Draft,” said former NBA player and current Republican Senate candidate in Minnesota, Royce White.
“I identify as a sometimes identifying transgender woman! My wig is in the mail,” he said.
Royce White said he will pursue legal action if the WNBA denies his bid.

** I didn't note it, but all 5 of the South Carolina Grahamnesty-replacement candidates mentioned they were against ex-men participation. Those election results are coming out tonight, BTW. I'll check it out.

Sex in Sports: The Women's NBA

No, but, wait... I don't associate the WNBA with anything sexy. I have neither seen a WNBA game nor seen even more than a 20 second clip of this small sector of the Sportsball "industry" that is a big part of America's Bread & Circuses. I would have no knowledge of anyone who plays in the WNBA, coaches in the WNBA, serves GatorAid™ in the WNBA, or writes about the WNBA, were it not for headlines on my go-to websites over the last couple of years.
I mean, men's basketball is Black! enough to be my least favorite sportsball choice were I to watch any of it. Whether or not to watch big aggressive black women play basketball was an easy call.
However, Americans generally like their sportsball - sometimes it's the subject for about the only small talk one can make, what with the weather being too political now. (See our old post Is sportsball rivalry splitting homes and relationships?* along with Part 1 and Part 2 of What's the matter with Sportsball?)
If you're gonna watch sports, it's natural to want to watch the very best of the players. That's what play-offs, "March Madness", the Superbowl, and so on, are all about. Who would want to watch the women? Their parents would
The news headlines about this Caitlin and now this Sophie have, at least temporarily, spurred some interest by Americans, even me, in the WNBA. It's political interest, though, not interest in the team standings or whose had the most rebounds, or who's dating whom.
Caitlin Clarke is apparently one of the very best players in the league, but the generally black teams, even her own, don't take kindly to some White non-lesbian horning in on their sports niche(s). They don't like the attention she's been getting as a White girl especially, even if it does bring in 10 x the attention and money into the league. (It's that crabs in a bucket thing.) So, they poke her in the eyes, clothesline her, "accidentally" knock her down hard.
It's bad enough for them that the White girl's getting all this attention, but worse, she's not even a lesbian... or it's bad enough for them that a straight girl's getting all this attention, but worse, she's White! Which way is the big problem for the WNBA players has been argued. One Ann Barnhardt, a serious Catholic blogger of some note**, seems pretty sure it's the former - priDEMONth: Let’s cut the crap – WNBA star Caitlin Clark isn’t being regularly assaulted on the court because she’s white; she’s being physically assaulted because she’s HETEROSEXUAL. I took Miss Barnhardt's word for this until I kept seeing headlines all over about "Caitlin's new partner". Are we talking a different Caitlin, the news gal or that guy Bruce, cause the Caitlins are proliferating? (How about we get back to Sallies, Sandras, and Susies? Now that'd be retro!)
What #7 is REALLY concerned about is hair. Hers is fake. Sophie's is real.
Whatever, but now there's a new and cuter White and straight WNBA player in the headlines, one Sophie Cunningham. Yes, she looks pretty nice. What brought her into the headlines was her reactionary stance about the admission of ex-men (h/t, Steve Sailer) into the National Women's Basketball League. We'll get to that particular political gentlewomen's disagreement in the next post, as we'll just note here that this is another White girl gathering attention away from all other players that nobody cares about. (Yes, right, we said it already, the parents and girlfriends.)
The stories of Caitlin and Sophie will die down - Caitlin may get "fatigued" and start a family, and Sophie's choice will likely prevail regarding the ex-men. Then, it'll be business as usual - nobody cares. It's simple why this is the case. Most women are not big sports fans like the guys are. Then, the guys want to watch the BEST players of a sport... EXCEPT, if the women are hot. It's just the game, but tall, muscular, aggressive women, as required by competitive basketball, are not hot.
A lot of men watch women's beach volleyball, at least, so the feminists and women sportball players ought to support this kind of thing...
... and women's pole vaulting. I mean, all jokes aside about women pole vaulters, the men are best at it, as with almost all sports. Why do we watch? Why do the youtube videos of rando young women sprinters and gymnasts get so many views?
(That was THE best "I don't know" ever in 12" diagonal screen B&W cinematic history! The rest of the clip is pretty good too - goes waaaaay back though.)
We don't even care who of these girls wins these 100 yard dashes or what country they hail from. (I am kinda partial to France right now...)
How can a woman get attention in those long baggy shorts and tank tops, when young women sprinters must wear what are basically bikinis nowadays. (Apparently, you can go a LOT faster.) I had a difficult time getting images of "women sprinters in the blocks from behind."
It's to the point where I read*** that youtube is censoring these very popular videos that I used to shamefully view on occasion. I mean, it would keep feeding me new ones, so ... Now, why in the world would youtube want to give up money and ban these? See the Family Ties answer above, or else, I guess Feminism beats profits.
I was able to find the following anyway. This one is a learning video, Female Sprinters Physique explained. Just mute it. We don't need an explanation.
"Sprinting is a great little sport there, if you're looking for a slim body for sure." It's in Australian, but I was able to translate.
If any of you Peak Stupidity readers are offended by this video please chime in. Do please copy a link to your favorite WNBA plays. We'll get to it.... next century.
* Interestingly, the image on top of that nearly 9 y/o post uses the meme of "I don't always drink..." etc. I hadn't known it (the commercials, I guess) were that old.
** Late Lindsey Grahamnesty detractors and American Islam non-acolytes may enjoy the video in Peak Stupidity's old post #123.
*** I've got no link and might not have an easy time searching, but I did read something about this either on youtube itself or elsewhere.
