Michael Moore Admits: The Left Will Attempt a Coup – LewRockwell

Posted by M. C. on November 17, 2020

More specifically, they will seek to eliminate “that” which gives non-leftists – those who hold traditional, liberal, democratic and American values – a fair chance at electoral or legislative success. We urge you to pay careful attention to Moore’s language: the Left’s goal is not to try to implement their agenda through our system as it stands now. Their goal is to “eliminate” anything that may stand in their way.

“We are all eager to join with you to repair the damage done to our country — and to eliminate that about our society and our politics which gave us Donald Trump in the first place” wrote the filmmaker Michael Moore in his open letter to Joe Biden the other day.

This statement by the Oscar-winning director should put everyone on alert, because it contains a chilling revelation of the hard left’s ultimate objective. Change the name “Donald Trump” for the term “conservative” or the phrase “everyone who is not a leftist” and you get an idea. Confident they have gotten a hold on the presidency, the hard left will now attempt to fundamentally alter our system in a way that would make it impossible for anyone to challenge their hold on power.

More specifically, they will seek to eliminate “that” which gives non-leftists – those who hold traditional, liberal, democratic and American values – a fair chance at electoral or legislative success. We urge you to pay careful attention to Moore’s language: the Left’s goal is not to try to implement their agenda through our system as it stands now. Their goal is to “eliminate” anything that may stand in their way. They do not mean to play by the rules of the game. They wish to change the parameters in a manner that would give them a permanent advantage.

Read what else Moore had to say in his missive to Joe Biden:

“I was so moved by your victory speech Saturday night when you told the immigrants and the children of immigrants that the Dreamers no longer had to live in fear. That Muslims were once again welcomed into our country. That the world could breathe a sigh of relief because we were going to let the planet Earth itself breathe and have some relief. And you told the teachers of America that starting January 20th, ‘one of your own will be living in the White House.’ That just felt instantly good.”

You can sense from the tone of Moore’s letter how confident and elated the hard left feels about its prospects. Some of the measures they will try to force in their effort to permanently ensconce themselves in power include:

  • Allowing unrestrained immigration from Latin America
  • Mass importation of Muslims into the United States
  • Elimination of the Electoral College
  • Making widespread postal voting a permanent feature of America’s electoral process
  • Packing the Supreme Court
  • Awarding Washington DC representation in US Congress
  • Ending the senate filibuster
  • Using teachers’ unions to further speed up and deepen indoctrination of students in public schools
  • Imposition of extreme environmentalist agenda such as the New Green Deal
  • Blacklisting and punishing those who oppose their policies or support non-leftist candidates for office
  • Destruction of the middle-class under the guise of COVID and other purported health emergencies
  • Institution of widespread political correctness through the codification of hate speech laws
  • Acceleration of the LGBT agenda in public schools and institutions
  • Indoctrination of government employees, contractors and recipients of federal funding through critical race theory and other Marxist-derived systems of thought

Even if they accomplish only seventy percent of their agenda, the Left’s hold on power will become for all practical purposes unshakeable. Thus, what they are trying to effect is nothing short of a coup, which would guarantee one Party a permanent grasp on government.

The election we just had was not yet the full coup. It was only its first stage. It is possible to have the occasional stolen election and still preserve democracy. Election theft has happened in the United States before. In the 1960 contest between Kennedy and Nixon, for example, the former was given the edge by stuffed ballot boxes from Chicago which, back then, was run by the notoriously unscrupulous mayor Richard Daley. Kennedy himself admitted so much in private. According to a piece in the American Spectator,

“[T]he day after the election, Kennedy told his friend and future Washington Post editor Ben Bradlee that Daley had told him that he had won Illinois by fraud…”

Despite the fraud the system was essentially preserved, because Kennedy was no far left extremist bent on radically altering the parameters of America’s electoral or societal landscape.

The coup that is in the works now will have succeeded when the Left alters the system to the point when it becomes impossible to dislodge them through fair elections. As of now, they have “only” stolen an election as the first step. If Biden manages to ascend to power, they will attempt to execute their coup d’état in full.

If they succeed, they will try their best to preserve the appearance of democracy in America. After all, every totalitarian system has regular and “transparent” elections. In all such contests, the citizens of the afflicted country “show” their love for the Party by giving it close to one 100 percent of their vote. Only the subversives and enemies of the People display ingratitude by voting contrary to what is good for them. But then their careers (as well as their existence) are usually short-lived.

Michael Moore’s open letter also reveals just how distorted leftists’ view of reality is. In his cloying dispatch to Biden, he thanked him for “being a good man.” To most people it has been long obvious that Joe Biden is a corrupt establishment politician who has been gaming the system for his personal benefit. The contents of his son’s infamous laptop revealed just how deeply corrupt he and his family are. Here are just some of their exploits that have come to light:

“Hunter was getting roughly $1 million per year from Burisma. Treasury Department alerts reveal that Russian oligarch Elena Baturina wired $3.5 million to Biden’s interests. New text messages reveal that China Energy Company Ltd (CEFC) apparently paid $5 million to the Biden family. Another email indicates Hunter demanded a $10 million-per-year “fee” from one of his Chinese business partners.”

Using his public position to enrich himself and his kin to the tune of millions of dollars, Joe Biden knows how to take care of business. Even the purportedly saintly Mrs. Biden was involved in the illicit enterprise. Holding positions in their fake companies, she helped funnel money that Joe and Hunter generated through their dirty dealings to members of their family including Joe’s brother James (read here). Astoundingly, despite Joe Biden’s extensive corruption and abuse of public trust – some of which likely merits criminal convictions – Michael Moore publicly praises him as “a good man.” With this being said, Michael Moore is a greater danger to the future and well-being of this country than the former vice president. Driven by a revolutionary impulse, Moore is an uncompromising ideologue with a twisted moral sense. As is the case with most fierce leftists, his values are completely inverted. To him what is corrupt is good, what is good is bad and what is sacred is despicable. Just watching Moore move and speak gives one a feeling of unease. Clearly troubled but energetic and creative, people like him can wreak a great deal of damage.

Let us, then, not forget his portentous words. Let them sink in and ponder their true meaning, for the talented Mr. Moore expressed the Left’s plans and heartfelt desire more eloquently than anyone ever could:

“We are all eager to join with you to repair the damage done to our country — and to eliminate that about our society and our politics which gave us Donald Trump [non-leftists] in the first place.”

Thus speak totalitarians.

Delingpole : Michael Moore Is Now the Green New Deal’s Worst Enemy

Posted by M. C. on April 23, 2020

Michael Moore see red about green.

Green energy is so bad even Moore has to admit it.

“How can men destroy what’s left of nature to enrich themselves?” Gibbs asks of the crony-capitalist renewables industry which has made a fortune for rent-seekers like Al Gore. He answers: “That’s why they’re billionaires and you’re not.”

https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2020/04/23/delingpole-michael-moore-is-now-the-green-new-deals-worst-enemy/

Left-wing documentary filmmaker Michael Moore is promoting a new documentary he executive produced about the environment — Planet of the Humans — and many of his usual supporters are going nuts.

What can the veteran left-wing activist possibly have done to earn such disapproval?

Simple. Moore has backed the most powerful, brutally honest and important documentary of his career. It’s also by far his bravest because it not only confronts the modern left’s greatest shibboleth — “clean” energy — but it does indeed offer a great deal of succour to Moore’s avowed enemy President Donald Trump.

It might even help Trump clinch the next presidential election for it undermines the entire basis of the Green New Deal being pushed in one form or another by his opponents. Renewable energy, the documentary makes abundantly clear, is not the solution to the problem — but an even bigger problem than the one it is supposedly solving.

The documentary was directed by Jeff Gibbs, who, like Moore, is very much a man of the left. Gibbs was a producer and composer on Moore’s Fahrenheit 9/11 and Bowling for Columbine. In his youth, he was the kind of committed, long-haired eco activist who sabotages diggers by putting sugar in their gas tanks.

And it’s this left-wing, activist background of Gibbs and Moore which makes the movie’s message so much more compelling.

Renewable energy, it tells us, is not clean energy but dirty energy because it does tremendous damage to the environment. The people who make money out of it are the worst kind of crony-capitalists. Anyone who claims to believe otherwise is either an idiotic dupe or a wicked liar.

Though I’ve written about this myself in countless Breitbart columns, I’m a conservative writer largely preaching to the choir. Coming from two ardent leftists, on the other hand, and aimed at least in part at a leftist audience, the message of Planet of the Humans is dynamite.

“I’m in a strange position,” the soft-spoken Gibbs tells us at the beginning of the movie. “I’m against our addiction to fossil fuels and have long been a fan of green energy. But everywhere I encountered green energy, it wasn’t what it seemed.”

And so we watch the scales begin to fall from Gibbs’s eyes.

We visit a zoo — powered, according to a local news story, by “renewable” elephant dung — which turns out on inspection not even to produce enough elephant dung power to heat the elephant barn.

We visit a “solar powered” music festival where we discover that behind the scenes it is largely powered by diesel generators.

We visit an ethanol plant — whose wood has to be harvested using fossil-fuel powered equipment and depends for its operational effectiveness on coal.

We visit a lovely old wood beloved by hikers and nature lovers in rural Vermont being trashed to build a wind farm.

We see 500-year old yuccas in the Mojave desert being torn up and shredded by diggers to make way for a “clean” energy solar plant.

“It was enough to make my head explode,” Gibbs confesses at one point. “Green energy is not going to save us.”

No indeed. But it’s going to make a few ugly and cynical crony capitalists very, very rich.

Gibbs follows the money trail and discovers — quelle surprise! — that the people and organizations most assiduously stoking the war on fossil fuels and most aggressively promoting “renewables” as an alternative are invariably the ones who stand to benefit most financially.

Among the Hall of Shame: Canadian activist Bill McKibben; Al Gore; Van Jones; Robert F Kennedy Jr; Jeremy Grantham; Michael Bloomberg; Richard Branson.

These are revealed to have an unhealthily cozy relationship with green NGOs like the Sierra Club and The Nature Conservancy, which mouth the usual environmental pieties while yet quietly promoting energy which is every bit as environmentally destructive as fossil fuels.

The worst of these, the documentary suggests, are biofuels and biomass. We visit one biomass plant on the shores of Lake Superior — awarded a $11.5 million government grant because it qualifies as “renewable” energy — which encourages its green wood chips to burn with the help of tire fragments and creosote (causing the snow to turn black).

Time and again — because Gibbs hangs out among his own kind: liberal-leaning environmental activists; lefty academics; etc — we witness the shock in these people’s eyes. They consider themselves to be green; they want desperately to save the planet; yet here are these monstrosities being erected across the U.S. in the name of the environment which wipe out native forests, pollute the air, and ravage the landscape with wind towers and solar panels which are left to rot once their useful life (less than 20 years, often) is over.

This is maybe the most important thing of all about this very important movie: it will drive a wedge into the heart of the green movement and force its adherents to take sides.

Will they choose to go with the evidence: which clearly shows that renewable energy is damaging to the landscape and to wildlife and does NOT reduce the use of fossil fuels (which must be kept as back up for when the wind doesn’t blow and the sun doesn’t shine)?

Or will they continue to promote the fake news narrative that renewables are an eco-friendly alternative to fossil fuels?

Renewable energy may well be the biggest scam in the gross, corrupt and, mendacious history of crony capitalism. It’s a scam so far-reaching that even the U.S. Navy has been persuaded to power its fleet in part with renewables.

It’s a scam so brazen that an environmental fund — Green Century Funds — promoted by Bill McKibben’s 350.org turns out on examination to have less than 1 percent of its holdings in the solar and wind industry; the other 99 percent comprises oil and gas infrastructure (including tar sands); biofuels; logging companies, and banks.

It’s a scam so hypocritical that last year’s Earth Day festival was sponsored by companies including car manufacturer Toyota and Caterpillar.

“How can men destroy what’s left of nature to enrich themselves?” Gibbs asks of the crony-capitalist renewables industry which has made a fortune for rent-seekers like Al Gore. He answers: “That’s why they’re billionaires and you’re not.”

Though I can’t say I share many of Michael Moore’s and Jeff Gibbs’s political assumptions — certainly not the Malthusian belief underpinning the movie that overpopulation is killing our planet — I’m full of gratitude and admiration that they should have made this bold, brave documentary.

What has always motivated me above all in my climate scepticism is my utter horror at what is being done to the planet in the name of saving it. Renewable energy is – and always has been – a monstrous, dirty, ugly scam, orchestrated by a cynical few at the expense of the many. It’s a horror against which we should all unite, left and right.

Now if only Michael Moore would stand up on a stage and say that, maybe at President Trump’s next campaign rally…

Michael Moore: We Have to ‘Put Our Bodies on the Line’ to Stop Trump

Posted by M. C. on June 29, 2018

Michael Moore and “body” in the same sentence is scary.

Just the man I look to to shape my world view. Apparently Stephen Colbert’s also. Next thing you know Colbert will be wearing his baseball cap indoors.

Michael Moore can’t wait for whites to die out – Aussie Conservative Blog

Posted by M. C. on September 5, 2017

Hypocrisy much?
It wouldn’t surprise me to hear Moore gets Soros funding.

https://aussieconservative.blog/2017/09/05/michael-moore-cant-wait-for-whites-to-die-out/

Michael Moore is celebrating the fact that white men are “dying out” because he thinks America’s demographic shift will make it easier for Democrats to win future presidential elections.
Despite supporting Bernie Sanders during the election campaign and criticizing Hillary Clinton for being a warmonger and a Goldman Sachs-owned career politician, Moore suddenly endorsed Hillary and has been a major driving force behind anti-Trump hysteria ever since.
