ZARDOZ SUNDAY NIGHT LINKS.

ZARDOZ SPEAKS TO YOU, HIS CHOSEN ONES. SO, ON THE SUGGESTION OF COMMENTER BRUTALS, ZARDOZ INQUIRED ABOUT THE PLANT MATERIAL HE HAS BEEN DELIVERING. A RECIPIENT OF ONE OF HIS DELIVERIES BURNED SOME OF THE MATERIAL UNDERNEATH ZARDOZ’S NOSE. ZARDOZ LATER BECAME QUITE RELAXED. PUTTING TWO AND TWO TOGETHER, ZARDOZ NOW UNDERSTANDS THE USE OF THIS PLANT.

SAY, CHOSEN ONES, YOU WOULDN’T HAPPEN TO HAVE ANY OF THE PLANT MATTER TO BURN UNDER ZARDOZ’S NOSE, WOULD YOU? IF NOT, IT IS COOL. ZARDOZ UNDERSTANDS. IT IS JUST…WELL, HERE ARE LINKS FOR MY CHOSEN ONES.

  • IF ZARDOZ COULD ROLL HIS EYES, HE WOULD DO SO.
  • AND WOULD ALSO DO SO FOR THIS.
  • OH, AND THIS TOO.
  • FINALLY, THIS ONE DESERVES AN EYE ROLL TOO.

WHAT IS IT WITH YOU BRUTALS THIS WEEK? ZARDOZ REALLY DOES NEED SOME MORE OF THAT PLANT MATTER.

    Just make sure the plant matter isn’t laced with stuff.

    Police in Springfield say a man was struck by a train as he apparently was taking a selfie.

    Mussolini didn’t have to put with this shit.

        1. The “I am looking for a lost puppy” time was BS.

  4. straffinrun

    “No Trump, no KKK, no fascist USA!”

    That rhyme scheme sucks.

    1. Rhywun

      I love the scare quotes around “Free Speech Rally”. But “anti-fascist” sails through without comment.

      1. Stinky Wizzleteats

        Only Nazis believe in free speech.

      2. John Titor

        But “anti-fascist” sails through without comment.

        I was actually thinking about that today when I remembered that the technical East German name for the Berlin Wall was ‘the Anti-Fascist Protective Wall’.

        1. DEG

          In this video, the film makers interview a former prisoner of Hohenschönhausen who heard his teachers talking about the wall as an “Anti-facsist protection device”, but who always wondered why people fled the East for the West.

          1. Floridaman

            They wanted to see if the Fascist party was as much of a sausage fest as the communist one.

  5. Gustave Lytton

    ZARDOZ is going to have to go back to grain collection when the munchies set in.

    1. SimonD

      do Doritos count as corn?

      Now I don’t mean to make you frown
      No, I just want you to slow down
      Have you never been brutal?
      Have you never tried?

    3. ZARDOZ

      SO THAT IS A SIDE EFFECT OF THE PLANT….ZARDOZ WAS STRONGLY TEMPTED TO CALL HIS OLD PIZZA DELIVERY PLACE.

      1. R C Dean

        I gotta say, I’m loving the ZARDOZ persona/storyline.

  6. DEG

    I’m looking through the pictures of the Boston protest. I don’t see any of the pro-Trump protesters covering their faces. I note one of the anti-Trump protesters threatening the photographer. I also notice the only people in the photographs committing property damage and theft are anti-Trump protesters.

  7. straffinrun

    Speaking of shitty rhyme schemes…

    “Despite this, Lucie said she was proud of her performance of ballad Never Give Up On You EU.”

    Tempers flare at ‘Free Speech Rally’ as alt-right, socialist groups clash

    It would be nice if someone actually made a speech at one of these rallies.

    Instead, it seems like some form of LARP-meets-bloodsport.

    The photo that went with that article was hilarious. I needed to Meme-ify it.

    I would love to hear other suggestions for image-caption/text

    1. straffinrun

      Think you nailed it.

      1. Gilmore

        As police officers worked to keep the two groups apart, demonstrators using megaphones spent more than four hours shouting insults across the barrier and one self-described anarchist set a small American flag on fire. At one point a girl who said she was a Quincy High School student threw a rock at the pro-Trump side.

        Tensions reached a boiling point about 1:45 p.m., when 28-year-old Salvatore Guytano Cippola, of Oceanside, N.Y., crossed a police barrier in an attempt to hand one of the counter-protesters a Pepsi — a move that appeared to be an attempt to mock a recent commercial that featured Kendall Jenner handing a cop a soda.

        Cippola was at least the fourth demonstrator to try to pull off the joke.

        Somewhere, ISIS dudes are reading the paper and going, “HOW THE FUCK DO THESE PEOPLE RUN THE WORLD?? MAKES NO SENSE”

    2. DenverJ

      “Abortion for some, no abortion for others, and tiny American flags for all!”

      1. Stinky Wizzleteats

        “Hurry up dude, I’m fucking freezing.”

    Scientists have identified the 50-foot creature that washed up on an Indonesian beach

    George Leonard, the chief scientist at the Ocean Conservancy, told HuffPost that the rotting carcass was probably a baleen whale, judging by parts of a protruding skeleton and what appear to be baleen plates used to filter out food.

    re: the Eurovision link

    I always think of Eurovision whenever someone starts praising Europe’s more-advanced cultural sensibilities.

    1. quincy

      As Iowahawk put it:

      The reaction Americans have to Eurovision is the same reaction the French have to Velveeta

      1. Aerozppln

        Which is the same reaction Fabio has to I Can’t Believe its Not Butter…

  15. Chafed

    I had to escape my Mother’s Day get together. After extolling Elizabeth Warren my mother in law presented “she persisted” mugs to my wife and mother as gifts. I just… can’t.

    1. I foresee a dishwashing accident for a certain mug in the near future…

      1. juris imprudent

        Wouldn’t you know, I walked down range with that cup as I sipped my coffee and left it on the target stand. Damnedest thing.

        1. Chafed

          Both are excellent suggestions. Glibertarians to the rescue!

        2. R C Dean

          Take a .30 caliber ( or a .45). It will be a special occasion, so bring yor best.

      Well what were you doing hanging out in the kitchen all day anyway?

      1. Chafed

        I was manning the barbecue but at some point the food was done cooking. After that it was prog central. It was all I could do to bite my tongue.

      Chelsea/Warren 2020!

      1. Aerozppln

        I would love that.

        Chelsea would crash and burn so hard in a debate. Even Ivanka would steamroll her.

    4. AlmightyJB

      “After extolling Elizabeth Warren”

      So then did she turn around and take the mugs right back.

    A primer on how to defeat enemy tanks in the event you are overrun.

    It should be called: Well, You’re Truly Fucked Now! Here Are Some Things That Might Help, But Probably Won’t.

    The upper echelons that had this made knew the infantry in that situation was lost but if the could induce enough people to at least try something then maybe there would be slight fewer tanks on the break-through.

    1. Aerozppln

      They’re tough but not bright.

      John taught us ways to dust them…

    2. I was ready with my Eagle Fireball to go up against the T-72!

      Thank God for FM 21-75

      1. __Warren__

        Eagle Fireball sounds like a special edition Trans Am.

    3. Gilmore

      I am reminded of the scene in Red vs. Blue where the troops insist its pointless waiting for the message from Headquarters because all they’re ever told is some version of =

      “Try Harder, Win, and Don’t Die”

      I am also reminded of this training film.

      1. Caput Lupinum

        Try Harder, Win, and Don’t Die

        Stop exploding you cowards!

    4. __Warren__

      I like how they left out that Jerry usually used arty to prep the area first. So you’re likely to have your head down as the tanks move to contact. So so much for popping up to annoy the crews with small-arms fire. And German infantry followed very closely so forget about having much of a chance to hit the back of the tanks with your rifle-grenades or Molotovs.

      And I like how there’s this promise that all these other assets will be available on your frontage.

        I kept scanning through the video to see if beery-working-class Staff Sargent was going to switch to whiskey and start telling racist jokes.

    Could it be…is this a legitimate Trump-related Racist Incident?

    “You’re seeing anti-Semitism in these crazy tweets I’m getting and you’re seeing a display of torches at night, which is reminiscent of the KKK,” Signer, who is Jewish, said in a phone interview. “They’re sort of a last gasp of the bigotry that this country has systematically overcome.”

    Look here, (((Mr. Mayor))), we don’t overcome racism and bigotry here; we have to always be fighting it! Jeez man, do you even Democrat?

    Signer issued a statement on Saturday criticizing the torch-carrying marchers as either “profoundly ignorant” or aiming to instill fear.

    NO! Not the Strongly Worded Letter! Dear God!

    “I smell Jew,” posted an anonymous Twitter user with the handle “Great Patriot Trump.” “If so, you are going back to Israel. But you will not stay in power here. Not for long.”

    Goddamn libertarians.

    1. Aerozppln

      If someone called me a Jew I would take it as a compliment.

    2. Rhywun

      The Charlottesville Daily Progress reported that chanters also cried: “Russia is our friend,” and “Blood and soil.”

      LOL I think they’re just trolling the country at this point.

    4. Suthenboy

      Every time I ask for examples of the dreaded alt-right I hear one name; Spencer. One dude with a few hundred mentally/emotionally crippled guys does not a movement make.

      It is difficult for me to take these people seriously or consider them adults when they give me Brad Pitt’s haircut as evidence of a secret nazi movement that is everywhere (Pitt was playing his role in the movie ‘Fury’). I swear to god it’s just like a bunch of teenagers on a campout working each other into hysterical fear of the monsters lurking in every shadow.

      I shouldn’t write things like this. I should encourage them as much as possible.

      I do find it disturbing that they are trying to associate free speech with fascism. All of the other strategies for attacking individual rights have failed so I guess they will try this one. It will fail also.

      1. Stinky Wizzleteats

        I’ve heard Spencer have discussions on various podcasts and the like and he’s fairly well spoken and is willing to sit down with those he disagrees with-Dave Smith, a New York Jew and a libertarian comedian, for example. I don’t agree with the guy but he’s much more tolerable to me than the left wing psychos who are beating people and burning shit down.

        1. __Warren__

          Well by being calm and reasonable is how the NAZIs pull you in!

          1. Pat

            In my youth when I was involved in a church I went to an inter-denominational Bible retreat. One of the speakers warned everyone how dangerous it was to try and engage door to door Jehovah’s Witnesses and Mormons in debate, because they would use the devil’s forked tongue to trick you into compromising your faith and lure you to hell. Best to flee from them and never engage in a discussion that might make you question what you believe.

            Later on during a discussion period with just our church group members I said basically “If your faith can’t withstand the scrutiny of a door to door Mormon missionary maybe it’s not worth preserving.” That sort of sentiment was tolerated in our church, and having had no experience with other churches, I had no idea how insular and insecure they were about it.

            The left has gotten pretty much that same way.

          2. Suthenboy

            I think that is a pretty good parallel.

      2. Pat

        One dude with a few hundred mentally/emotionally crippled guys does not a movement make.

        Got that Zardoz?

      3. Rhywun

        ’s just like a bunch of teenagers on a campout working each other into hysterical fear

        It’s also a lot of kids having fun with play-acting at “resistance”.

        1. Stinky Wizzleteats

          It’s looking like this is going to continue on until there’s a truly blood soaked incident which there eventually will be. God knows what happens after that.

        2. Suthenboy

          Yes I know. I noticed when Moldy Locks got knocked on her ass she got up with a ‘wtf just happened’ look on her face. Turns out that reality didn’t play out like the fantasy in her head. It wont take very much no-shit real violence to make most of this bullshit evaporate. I hope it doesnt come to that.

      4. The Elite Elite

        I shouldn’t write things like this. I should encourage them as much as possible.

        Don’t worry. None of those clowns will ever read anything from this site.

      5. Viking1865

        I used to read Spencer’s blog (assuming it was the same Spencer) when it was just about radical Islam. He was obviously very anti-Muslim, but it was always a lot more based on non-racial evidence. But this was in like 2004 or 2005.

        Is he like full on “gas the kikes!!! 14 words!!! 88!!!!” Neo Nazi, or is he more like the John Derbyshire “Culture matters, but there’s a huge genetic component to intelligence and social success, and the data doesn’t lie”

        1. Juvenile Bluster

          Closer to the former than to the latter. Though I’m not sure how much of that is Milo-style trolling.

        2. Pat

          I think you’re thinking of Robert Spencer. The villainous uber-Nazi is Richard Spencer.

          1. Pat

            (Robert Spencer runs Jihad Watch, Richard Spencer runs Radix)

          2. Viking1865

            That is indeed who I am thinking of.

            From the Wikipedia page.

            In 2001, Spencer received a B.A. with High Distinction in English Literature and Music from the University of Virginia and, in 2003, an M.A. in the Humanities from the University of Chicago. He spent the summer of 2005 and 2006 at the Vienna International Summer University.[15] From 2005 to 2007, he was a doctoral student at Duke University studying modern European intellectual history, where he was a member of the Duke Conservative Union.[13] His website says he left Duke “to pursue a life of thought-crime.”

            Bolded part made me chuckle.

        As mentioned in the AM links =

        the Atlantic did a piece on Neo-Mondo-Uber-Nazi Spencer, and Reason magazine is mentioned in the first sentence

        1. Pat

          Lol

          “Spencer was so stupid. I mean like really stupid. Did I mention how stupid he was? Everything he did was stupid. He never achieved anything. I always pitied the poor little fellow, him being so stupid. I almost felt a tinge of guilt when I excelled in every possible way, but especially as a towering intellectual, because of how distinct it made me from poor stupid fellows like Spencer, who as I mentioned was very stupid.”

          Jesus fuck.

      7. Akira

        What I find humorous is that Richard Spencer would still be some largely unknown shitheel blogger if the lefty media were not blowing up his name as evidence of the great fascist threat to America. They made him famous.

    American tourists don’t want to travel to Cuba

    Cuba has a long way to go before it’s suitable for many high-maintenance American tourists. “This will come with certain expectations: Americans expect that cell phones will work, credit cards will work, and that access to internet won’t be limited,” she said. “These expectations, along with the monetary support American travelers provide for Cuban entrepreneurs in the tourism sector, will help foster the kind of change that will not only further increase American interest in traveling to our island neighbor, but also benefit the Cuban people.”

      I can’t think of anything worse than capitalism destroying poverty

    2. AlmightyJB

      Don’t look to Hollywood actors to go help them out.

    3. Stinky Wizzleteats

      They’re trying to attract the wrong clientèle. I assume their prostitutes are in good working order.

      1. Suthenboy

        About half of them are eat up with the cooties, so…not really.

    4. Suthenboy

      Castro deliberately ridded the island of capitalism and instituted iron fisted communist totalitarianism. He became all powerful and ungodly rich. Why exactly, does anyone think the current totalitarian shitbird is going to allow capitalism back onto the island? So that the cuban people can get out from under his heel?

      I really dont follow the thinking here.

      1. Caput Lupinum

        Eventually you run out of other people’s money. At that point, you need new people to fleece. Enter the idiot tourists.

        1. Suthenboy

          Yeah, I guess the Ruskies aren’t floating them anymore and Venezuela has run out of oil so…

          It doesnt seem that the kinds of idiots that would tour the socialist paradise of Cuba would have enough money to replace all that but I guess beggars cant be choosers.

          1. Caput Lupinum

            If they were smart about money, they wouldn’t be communists to begin with.

          2. Gustave Lytton

            I wouldn’t mind going there but it’s not high on my list. Like after flying Air Koryo.

          3. thrakkorzog

            Well, the place is well known for it’s sex tourism, since prostitutes can get paid in hard currency without the government taking a cut. But if you study to be a doctor in Cuba, you can expect to be shipped off to Venezuela to support the glorious people’s revolution. With the Cuban government taking the vast majority of the cost of your service.

            You have to admire the communists in some ways, they somehow managed to make being a prostitute a better career prospect than being a doctor.

      2. Pan Zagloba

        Why exactly, does anyone think the current totalitarian shitbird is going to allow capitalism back onto the island? So that the cuban people can get out from under his heel?

        Vietnamese and Chinese shitbirds did it and they are still in power. Put some asshole with half a brain, born less than 60 years ago, in charge, and they can improve Cuban economy by huge amount, simply because it’s so shitty.

        Yep. He managed not to apologize for that either. Just deleted the tweet and went on.

        1. The Elite Elite

          I used to feel a little sorry for him when he was getting trashed by regressives for his story arc of Black Widow in Avengers 2. Hearing this about him, I suddenly don’t feel sorry for him anymore.
