Oh No!

News that I missed, courtesy of The Babylon Bee:

METROPOLIS — The hero once thought of by many as the defender of truth, justice, and the American way found himself in a public relations nightmare this week, as Superman came under fire after hundreds of images surfaced of him allegedly giving a Nazi salute.

Critics rushed to point out that the Kryptonian-born guardian of Metropolis appears in a growing number of images holding his hand high in the air, a pose strikingly similar to the one once popularized in Nazi Germany in the 1930s. Calls for Superman to be held accountable quickly spread.

“Maybe the symbol on his chest should be ‘SS,'” said Perry White, editor-in-chief of the Daily Planet. “We’ve spent all this time thinking Superman was on the side of freedom and liberty, but looking back over the photos we’ve taken of him over the years, it’s clear to see he’s just a fascist. I mean, Hitler wanted to literally create an Aryan race of “supermen,” right? We’re calling on Superman to issue a full public apology.”

Others were more cautious to jump to the conclusion that Superman was a Nazi. “I’m pretty sure he’s not,” said mild-mannered reporter Clark Kent. “In fact, I’m like 100% sure he’s not. These are just pictures taken at specific times and the still photos make it look like he’s holding his hand up like a Nazi. But he’s not one. Seriously. Not a Nazi. Superman, I mean.”

Go here to read the rest.  Other Nazis:

My wife told me that she was reading social media posts being made by liberal progressives. She said that they simply hate Trump, Musk, et alias, and have stated that they don’t care if electing Democrats means higher food and energy prices, so long as Republicans are not in power. Such people will never stop equating us with Nazis because that is exactly and precisely what they themselves are. Now I am obviously not advocating this, but now you should know why God told Joshua to purge the Promised Land of such people. They cannot be reasoned with or dialogued with (despite the Pope’s constant admonition to dialogue except of course he won’t dialogue with Trump). And being demonicly either oppressed or possessed, they won’t stop till they meet their end (unless by a special grace from God they are exorcised). They identify the raised single arm as a salute which they themselves give to their master the Devil. The idea of agreeing to disagree and accepting different points of view when such people are clearly Satanic must be abandoned. This in the long run does not speak well for our Republic, and we should pray that God intervenes in some special way to change hearts and minds before there is a violence that none of us should ever want. We have won a victory in this battle, but the enemy is not defeated.

The left needs constant personal hatred to maintain their worldview. Watch them talk about Trump or Musk or JK Rowlings or whoever else the enemy of the day is. Not only do they hate them, but they constantly think about them and hate every aspect of their being. So if one of their targets picks up a cup of coffee and drinks it, it can’t simply be a meaningless action. It has to be a coded message that shows how evil that person is, and what’s more it’s essential that all of your friends and relatives are aware of this.

There are certainly people that people on the right dislike. But I’ve very rarely seen the same level of constant obsession from anyone on the right that is the standard on the left. For the most part we dislike what someone does and oppose them when they are doing it, and then that person leaves our mind. It’s like when Ugarte asks Rick in Casablanca whether Rick despises him, and Rick responds “If I gave you any thought I probably would.”

The left cannot understand that line. This is also why the best way to enrage them is to ignore them.
