The Next Step In Sex Taboo Normalization.

HuffPo Normalizes Bestiality, Talks 'Acceptance' With Man Who Had Sex With Dolphin

Buckle up, bigots! The social justice Left has a new crusade: dolphin sex acceptance.

On Friday, HuffPost's Ashley Feinberg took a stab at normalizing bestiality, posting a glowing interview with a man who considers himself a "heterosexual" who crosses "species lines" and infamously had sex with a dolphin.

That's right. He screwed a dolphin.

Malcolm Brenner was the feature of a documentary called "Dolphin Lover," wherein Brenner was "courted" by a dolphin named Dolly he eventually has sex with.

“She would rub her genital slit against me,” he says in the doc. “And if I tried to push her away, she would get very angry with me. One time, when she wanted to masturbate on my foot and I wouldn’t let her, she threw herself on top of me and pushed me down to the 12-foot bottom of the pool.”

Brenner has previously compared the taboo surrounding sex with an animal to interracial sex: "I’m hoping that in a more enlightened future, zoophilia will be no more regarded as controversial or harmful than interracial sex is today," he said in "Dolphin Lover."

Feinberg had Brenner watch the award-winning film "The Shape of Water," which features a woman falling in love with and having relations with a fish-man, and asked him his thoughts.

Overall, the dolphin lover was unimpressed and thought the romance "developed much too quickly."

"It was a very stereotypical romance," he explained. "I thought it went more back to 'Splash' with Daryl Hannah and Tom Hanks, like a female version of 'Splash.'"

The bizarre interview goes on to frame bestiality as taboo or immoral because of society's dim view and closed-mindedness. In two separate questions, Feinberg searches for steps toward normalization of bestiality.

Feinberg's questions are in bold text:

Does it bother you at all that people only seem to find this acceptable when it’s fantasy or an allegory? And do you think there will be a day when that changes?

Of course it bothers me. I don’t like people threatening to go Lorena Bobbitt on me because I made love with a dolphin.

Will it change? Who knows? I would like to think that society will become less religious, because the prohibitions in Leviticus are the only conceivable basis for any laws against bestiality. I can’t see that my boffing my dog has any effect on society, good or ill, as long as I’m not hurting her or abusing her. Laws against animal cruelty ought to be sufficient without criminalizing the act of interspecies sex, which organizations like PETA are trying to do.

Do you see this movie as a step toward acceptance at all?

I don’t see it as a step toward acceptance. It’s so obviously a fantasy that most people won’t carry the goodwill over to zoophiles like me. Ask me again when I’ve signed a film contract for Wet Goddess. But I want to be clear about one thing: I didn’t write Wet Goddess for zoophiles. I wrote it for dolphins.

This is the next frontier for the social justice Left, ladies, gentleman, and dolphins.

Stunning. Brave. I want to vomit.

Black Unemployment Lowest Since George W. Bush's Administration

“Racist” Trump Presides Over Lowest Black Unemployment Rate in History

Trump Presides Over Lowest Black Unemployment

BY V SAXENA
JANUARY 6, 2018 AT 8:20AM

Unemployment in the black community dropped to a record low of 6.8 percent in December, the lowest black unemployment rate ever recorded since the Bureau of Labor Statistics began tracking this statistic in 1972.

“In the 45 years the data has been tracked, the unemployment rate for black or African-American workers aged 16 years and older has never fallen below 7 percent,” notes CNBC.

Well done, President Donald Trump, though to be clear, the downward trajectory in black unemployment began around 2011, during the administration of then-President Barack Obama.

The following chart from the BLS demonstrates what I mean:

Here’s my question, though: Didn’t Democrats and their liberal media peers warn us in 2015 and 2016 that Trump is a bigoted racist who dislikes minorities and would hurt the black community?

In fact, I recall a piece from The Huffington Post published last year that offered “12 reasons Donald Trump would not be great for” black people.

In another piece from Time magazine, controversial talk show host Tavis Smiley seriously pondered whether Trump’s plan to “Make America Great Again” involved re-enslaving blacks.

Likewise, last year fake conservative Jennifer Rubin outlined the many things “African-Americans have to lose if Trump is elected.”

“Trump doesn’t say, for example, if he’d be willing to spend more on worker training, education and other targeted programs that might address youth unemployment; he does, however, favor a tax plan that hugely benefits the rich,” she wrote for The Washington Post.

Yet here we are in 2018, and not only do blacks remain as free as a bird, but they’re now benefiting from intelligent regulatory policies enacted or cut by Trump that have, in fact, created more jobs and boosted wagesfor everyone, be they black, white, Hispanic, you name it.

Moreover, when Rubin wrote her piece for the Post, unemployment among black youths between 16 to 19 years of age hovered around 25.4 percent, according to the Federal Reserve Economic Data database maintained by the Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis.

As of December, that rate had dropped to 22.9 percent, which was slightly more than the low of 19.8 achieved a couple months earlier. Nice try, though, Rubin.

Look, can we be real for just a moment, versus melodramatic and hyperbolic like liberals?

First, these great black unemployment numbers aren’t attributable to only Trump. The Obama administration admittedly got the ball rolling years ago.

Second, and more importantly, despite claims by leftists that Trump’s presidency would damage the black community, it’s actually helped to push black unemployment even lower than before, to the point that black unemployment just reached a record low last month.

Why is this happening? Because when Trump promised on the campaign trail to “Make America Great Again” for everybody, regardless of their race, religious or sexuality, he clearly meant it — and that’s something no liberal moron or pretend conservative airhead can deny anymore.

H/T Breitbart

Please share this story on Facebook and Twitter and let us know what you think about President Donald Trump’s policies helping to push the black unemployment rate to a record low.

What do you think about how stunningly wrong all the naysayers like Jennifer Rubin were?

Is Execution Of Trump And Others Appropriate?

BREAKING: Major News Company Calls For Trump’s Execution In Deleted Op-Ed

June 21, 2017 Mark Fields

Huffington Post contributor Jason Fuller recently authored an op-ed that received some intense backlash from its early readers. It appears that Fuller went too far, even for the liberal news site.

In a piece that has since been removed, though a saved version can be viewed, Fuller writes that President Trump “must be prosecuted for treason — and if convicted in a court of law — executed.” He then calls for “everyone assisting in his agenda” to receive the same fate.

It’s stunning that the article was even written, let alone published. But the Huffington Post has a history of making poor editorial judgements, so it should come as little surprise. You would think that a piece giddily promoting the “ultimate punishment” for political opponents would’ve put it on a one-way trajectory to the garbage, but instead of promoting responsible journalism, it appears that HuffPo wanted to get clicks instead. And the piece only got worse the further one read.

To that point, Trump wasn’t the only Republican Fuller believes should be executed. He also specifically named “Steve Bannon, Kellyanne Conway, Mitch McConnell, Paul Ryan, and Vice President Pence”. Falling back on his dubious notion of having the moral high ground, he appeared to be delighted with the thought of dead conservatives — embracing as much depraved and and cruel imagery as one could muster in such a short column.

Fuller further stated: “There is very little doubt left that Trump and his team colluded with members of the Russian government to try and rig the election in his favor, even if the Russians did not outright hack the voting process itself; while we may not yet have 100% incontrovertible proof of their collusion, the administration’s attempts to hide previous contacts with the Russians, their willingness to blatantly lie about their communications, and the contents of Trump’s meetings with former FBI director Comey are all incriminating on their own.”

This shocking claim comes on the heels of James Comey’s sworn testimony that he personally offered “assurance” to Trump that he wasn’t under investigation, and just days before the well-publicized shooting of Representative Steve Scalise (R-LA) and others on a Virginia baseball field. In light of these recent events, extremist language is on the radar of authorities as they attempt to dissuade political terrorism.

The horrific shooting was the likely reason Fuller’s article was pulled from HuffPo, as it was yanked almost immediately after. And if you visit it now, you will only receive a statement that the work is no longer available. What you will still find there, however, is a public profile in which he prides himself on “Working to bring about the best in America, both on-line and off.” He also ironically portrays himself as a man waging a war against bullying and extremism.

Though his original article was pulled, you can read Fuller’s full response to the controversy on Medium, where he doubles-down on his previous statements. Not surprisingly, he has faced a second backlash as a result — and rightly so. This kind of violent rhetoric should always be denounced.

Once Again The Leftists And Their Friends In The Media Lie

FAKE NEWS: No, The Republican Health Care Bill Didn’t Just Make Rape A Pre-Existing Condition

“In Trump’s America, Rape Is a Preexisting Condition.”

“Under The New Health Care Bill, Rape Could Be A Pre-Existing
Condition.”

“Trump’s Health Care Bill Allows Rape To Be A Pre-Existing
Condition.”

“Rape And Domestic Violence Could Be Pre-Existing Conditions.”

These are all real headlines from mainstream media outlets: New York
Magazine, Huffington Post, The Independent (UK), CNN.

They’re also nonsense.

Under the American Health Care Act, states have the ability to opt-out of
federal regulations requiring insurance companies to cover pre-existing
conditions. Naturally, the left immediately conjured up images of people
injured in the most horrifying possible way – rape – and then suggested
that the bill would suddenly leave rape victims adrift. Here’s
New York Magazine: “Under Obamacare, preexisting conditions were
guaranteed to receive coverage – among them, sexual assault. The
American Health Care Act is going to change that…In addition to rape,
postpartum depression, cesarean sections, and surviving domestic violence
are all considered preexisting conditions.”

So, let’s parse this. According to the leftist media, if you suffer an injury in
a terrible situation, the situation itself is now a pre-existing condition. In other
words, these headlines could just have easily read, “In Trump’s America, Car
Crashes Are Pre-Existing Conditions,” or “Under The New Health Care Bill,
Soccer Accidents Could Be A Pre-Existing Condition.” The bill itself
says that pre-existing conditions are pre-existing conditions. Nowhere
does it give a list of pre-existing conditions including “rape” or “sexual
assault,” because these are activities leading to injury, not actual injuries.

The leftist case here is idiotic. Events are not “pre-existing conditions.” Injuries
that occur as a result of events, if they occur before you attempt to buy
insurance, are definitionally pre-existing conditions. Duh.

But the debate has now been so skewed that we think the government can
magically have health insurance cover rape – which doesn’t even make
sense. If no injury occurred requiring medical attention due to a rape, what
would the insurance company do to cover it? Pray? Hunt down rapists?

Yet the people who believe that government can protect you from all ills,
and apparently send insurance adjusters into the streets Charles
Bronson-style to prevent rape, are out in force today:

This argument is the equivalent of saying that Obamacare sought to hurt
rape victims by throwing people off their individual insurance plans. Obamacare
may well have thrown people off their individual insurance plans, but it
wasn’t because they were rape victims.

Come on, people.
