Guys we (myself very much included) forgot something very important yesterday (Wednesday). Yesterday was the 6th of June. The 74th anniversary of D-Day. And – to all appearances – all of us forgot it.
The survivors are almost all gone now. We, the children and grandchildren of those men who fought that day – many not even getting out of the landing craft alive – are all they have to keep alive the memory of their sacrifice. The Europeans have totally forgotten that day. Soon that longest day WILL be forgotten. When that day comes the truth of Heinlein’s sage words will be proven –
“A generation which ignores history has no past – and no future.”
Not quite forgottrn,, I celebrated my (deceased) dad’s 100th b day with a shot of double aged Jim Beam black. My grandson was shocked at how old my dad would have been.
Didn’t forget it my FB has all the D-Day stuff I could share and I sat down and went through and re-read the Wiki entry for it. sadly I don’t have a lot of good books about it on hand.
Regressive so-called “Progressives” don’t want to forget the past. They’re determined to selectively scrub certain unpleasant reminders of the inevitable failure of collectivism but everything else gets passed through the Intersectional/Marxist filter so it can be spun into manufactured “proof” of their irrational theories.
Let us remember that the “Progressives” achieved one of the greatest mass brain washings in history.
Post WWII they managed to re-cast the Nazis as Far Right instead of the National Socialists they obviously, brazenly, and bragged they were.
And they _still_ dominate the Media.

Given that an invading force intending to be a conquering force has again invaded France and Europe, I was letting this one go by without mentioning it until the next day. The Europeans can still save themselves. But will they? That the enemy that drove them from Algiers is now firmly invaded into France, and even enthusiastically supported by a French President is a marvel of evil. His enthusiastically promoted view of France’s people and culture’s future is as barren as his wife’s womb.
On the next one there may be much more made of it. We will have a president there who will not stage a photo op of walking on Normandy Beach and finding rocks (out of place on the sand beach) that he stoops to arrange in a pattern.
I hope that our real US President will help shine the light on the sacrifices so honorably and bravely made by so many so that Europe could be Europe. I believe that our real US President will let the dead and survivors speak for the good that was done through the sacrifices that were made and the costs paid. There are future costs that must be paid for the bad decisions once again made by the self appointed rulers of Europe and the world.
Don’t waste what was done for you and the world, Europe.
Try not to let steam come out of your ears after reading this drivel.
We have truly as a country jumped the SJW shark into real fucking insanity.
How the fuck a snowflake little twit like this can twist the sacrifice made by thousands of brave men into a screed about the #MeToo bullshit just….pisses….me off.
Oh and BTW, what this ahistorical little shit doesn’t realize is that men accused of collaboration were fucking SHOT.
Holy shit the French had a basic purge after the war and executed thousands of Vichy men for collaboration.
Holy shit I need a whisky.
Sorry for the rant. I just can’t stand it anymore.
Sad to say _I_ believe it.
As someone once (or probably many times) said, “If it weren’t for Double Standards the Left would have no Standards at all.”
Now how about the Soviet Army raping itsway across Poland Eastern Europe and the absolutely being a scourge in raping every woman they could find in Germany as they conquered it. Let’s not forget the Soviet Army being halted about ten kilometers from the city of Warsaw while the Soviets needed 63(?) days to wipe out the Polish Warsaw Uprising that would have established the old Polish government rather than the Communist puppet government that Stalin wanted in place. Hitler ordered the city of Warsaw razed to the ground, and it almost was. The Axis Hungarians who had refused to attack the Polish were tasked with sealing off half of the city’s perimeter. the Hungarians provided all of their unregistered weapons and ammunition to their Polish friends. Many Hungarians joined the Poles. Poles were given Hungarian uniforms to transport civilians in horse carts out of the city and on to safer areas. The Hungarians opened the city to those who wished to leave and to reinforcements entering as well as to food and supplies. The Hungarians set up hospitals for the Polish wounded, civilian and military. The SS expected victory in 6 days. It took 63. The Soviets waited. The Hungarians asked the allies if they would be recognized as soldiers entitled to Geneva War Convention rights if they switched sides and joined and aided the Polish. The Allies refused to recognize a Hungarian switching of sides.
Then Romania switched sides and attacked Hungary gaining disputed territory. The Hungarians started leaving to defend Hungary around the end of the battle.
Now a raping army of Islam is brought into Europe to do evil and to rape more European women. Where is the outrage from people like this writer?
I have seen good movies and read stories on the subject of those women. That it was an injustice has never been denied by considerate people. That the writer just wishes to virtue display and get her outrage shown in the me too times seems apparent to me. Where is her voice on the #db120 movement. The original posts on much social media were taken down as hate speech actually because they were stating the truth.
The truth is not welcome by many unless it can be twisted to someone’s narrative or agenda, and become something different than the truth.
These people are insanely evil is a good argument.
Now some here are calling for a cleansing in the water from the pool of boobies and honestly good loving women. A good thought.
But I wouldn’t expect a nitwit who works for time to know shit about history.
I just read a great book on the French Resistance and whatever else you say about the French..when push comes to shove they know how to do payback….maybe they need some of that now for the Vichyites who are letting the Muslim hoard invade the country just like the Nazis did.
Shoot a few globalist collaborators…
Might be good.
Just like boobs at a swimming hole.
SIGH, sorry I ranted a bit…used colorful sailor language…I just couldn’t believe that nonsense actually got published….
But then again, maybe I shouldn’t be surprised anymore…the left doesn’t even care to hide their hatred for America anymore.

Yes. Many in the left, Islam, and others have pulled down the false flags and raised their true banners. They have become visible.
The French have a big problem. Marseilles is at least 40% Muslim. And more than just that…..
The French can fight. What will push them to it.
Where is a Charles Martel. Instead, now there is a Macron macaroon. The ladies find him tasty, just like they found the Trudeau’s tasty. Many vote from that perspective. They vote for a man they would have as a lover. Their tastes. Who can account for tastes?

Yup, right there with you, bad thing is, even if he kicked the bucket of natural causes tomorrow, his Son is right there ready to step into Daddy’s shoes and carry on his Father’s plans.

Indeed, that seems more truth than not.
Careful Chris, or you will turn Jeeves into the DBD equivalent of Snoopy in Peanuts.
And if you ever make DBD cartoons for television, Jeeves “voice” really will become all that.
I “hear” Jeeves’ voice as Kitt from Knight Rider.
HAH!!! Great minds think alike……do did I. 😀 😀
Whoever it is that does C3PO in the movies would be good as well.
I hear Marvin the paranoid android from the original Hitchhiker’s Radio Series.
That’s LOL funny! Thanks for the humor just before bed.

A baby bump perhaps?
Naw Jeez, there’d be preggo chicks all over the strip!

Jeeves made the comment that the test program was not yet loaded. That was the best joke yet.
Ok fellow DBDers and art lovers.

George Soros Keynote speech at ECFR’s Annual Council Meeting in Paris 29 May. 2018.
ECFR – European Council on Foreign relations.
I am so an Anti-Soros.
Yup, right there with you, bad thing is, even if he kicked the bucket of natural causes tomorrow, his Son is right there ready to step into Daddy’s shoes and carry on his Father’s plans.
My G-d, that man procreated!!?! We are definitely in for more trouble.
I was delighted to read of Hungary sending Soros and his assorted “NGOs” packing.
Since many NGOs depend on government funding, all of our nations should similarly deal with these amoral leaches.
