Their Inner Loveliness
Some elaboration on a couple of items from Friday’s Ephemera – in which Antifa’s Transgender Enforcement Wing bare their sweet little souls.
The following scenes were filmed by Katie Daviscourt at a University of Washington event on safeguarding women’s sports against mentally ill men:
“It would be so beautiful to see your bodies hanging from the tree”
Trantifa/Antifa members threatened an elderly couple leaving a @Riley_Gaines_ event at the @UW campus. Police had to escort them as the militants followed. Video by @KatieDaviscourt: pic.twitter.com/ZapSmwQo8y

From the same:
“I hope you die behind the wheel you stupid transphobic bitch!”
“You look too much like a trans woman to be transphobic”

For daring to film such things, Ms Daviscourt received similar treatment.
In the comments, Min asked, not unreasonably:
One might think that gangs of masked misfits following elderly and disabled people to their cars, then obstructing their attempts to leave, while generally menacing them and muttering vivid threats, might constitute a breach of the peace, to say the least. Causing fear and alarm is the obvious intention.
And remember, the targets in the videos above – the unimposing, the elderly, the disabled – are chosen deliberately and with glee. Because that’s who they are, these mighty warriors of the Cluster B Tendency. Malevolence is their aphrodisiac, their euphoria. It’s how they feel important. It’s how they process the buzzing noise inside their own heads.
And then there’s the whole throwing faeces thing.
Oh, and note the “I’m not touching anyone – don’t touch me!” line from the big Antifa goon, the one enthusiastically menacing an elderly woman who struggles to walk.
We’ve been here before, of course. And we’ve seen what it means.
Update, via the comments:
EmC quotes this,
And adds,
The threat of catastrophic injury would, I suspect, be the only language such creatures are likely to heed. It’s certainly hard to imagine them being swayed by appeals to logic, reciprocation, or basic decency. I see no evidence of a better nature to which one might appeal. I mean, once you’ve chosen to spend your afternoon menacing the elderly and disabled precisely because they’re unlikely to give you the vigorous kicking you deserve, you’re pretty much beyond any negotiation or genteel outreach project.
And should any readers have assumed the choice of targets seen above must be some one-off aberration, by all means think again:
It must be strange to inhabit a social circle in which gratuitously harassing the elderly and disabled, and putting them in fear for their safety, is regarded as a credential and proof of righteousness. To believe that such behaviour makes you look good and will earn you in-group status.
It’s a pretty good measure of just how perverse, and morally demented, the Antifa mindset is.
T’aint politics. It’s pathology.

Always masked, too…

They’re essentially twisted clumps of malice, vile little egos, nothing more. But even vile little egos can sometimes be deterred by the prospect of some suitably emphatic physical humiliation.

At the recommendation of a friend, I started to watch the series One, which has the same vibe in the lines of Dexter. Do you remember Edward Woodward in his character of The Equalizer? Shows like this are liked because bad guys and bullies finally get theirs, y’know?
So where is the tipping point? At what point do the “I don’t want to sink to their level” crowd finally say, “right, that’s enough” and realize that these people are incapable of responding to anything but a punch in the face? Sure, they may some day get their comeuppance if they live long enough and age with the realization that they are becoming frailer and so more prey than predator, but that can take a long time.
Maybe I’ll seek to greenlight a new series, where a senior citizen seemingly places themselves in harm’s way to attract this kind – with a surprise ending.

No. Horror film.
This. This. This.
You’re not just killing a thug; you’re also saving all his future victims.
I’m not sure but I’ve noticed otherwise sober adults I follow on X slowly coming to the realisation that this is a civilisation-level struggle and either we win, or they do. There will be no happy-clappy let’s-all-get-along future with both sides living in peace. That this is entirely down to the regressive left and their stoking of hatred in otherwise peaceful people is completely lost on them.
It’s been done on the big screen in the Michael Caine film Harry Brown, more an English Death Wish than an Equalizer though.
Speaking of which….
@dicentra: I remember a house cat who, when it decided it had had enough petting, would very gently bite your finger.
The people who put him in a women’s ward should be held criminally responsible.
Aaaand… another Guardian writer turns out to be a bare-faced liar. Is it a requirement for the job?
What tickled me at the time was Mr Wilson’s unwarranted snobbery about “who qualifies” as a journalist, implying his own existence on some higher plane, while simultaneously indulging in fabulist dishonesty, ignoring all contrary evidence, and struggling with things like logic and causality.
It was so totally Guardian.
Not entirely unrelated.
@dicentra: I have a cat who, when she decides she’s had enough petting, reminds me that five out of six ends are pointy.
Got to justify that pay packet.
These behaviors are taught and the problem is much broader than we want to believe.
For example, the school curriculum for entire state of Oregon REQUIRES teachers to teach kids to exhibit Cluster B behaviors and prevents teachers from punishing certain other behaviors that discourage Cluster B behaviors.
If you look at so-called “anti-bullying” curricula anywhere in Oregon’s public schools, it is EXPLICITLY and SINGULARLY interested in promoting (by protecting from normal social pressures) behavior that is expressly dysgenic: anti-family, anti-heterosexual, anti-Christian, etc.
CA’s “ethnic studies” curriculum is similarly dysgenic: pro-Balkanization, anti-Enlightenment, pro “queer” (in the political sense), anti-assimilationist, expressly anti-capitalist. It goes so far as to REQUIRE that students view “capitalism” as inherently tacist because it “promotes the death of indigenous minority communities.”
In other words, the people running American public schools are creating mandatory curriculum whereby even teachers who are not “revolutionaries” (or who are opposed to “revolutionary ideas”) are *required by law* to teach their students to hate their country and that violence against dissenting opinions is not only allowed, but required.
Puts me in mind of that lovely phrase ‘fit for purpose’.
They’re not.

Huge red flag.
One of the comments there “Gender needs to be burned to the ground.” I literally have no idea wtf that means. Does it mean anything?
Looking at their* profile (which features a “TERF Barbie” and a sign, “Protect women’s sports”), and various other items supporting the reality of biological sex and mocking the ersatz versions thereof, I’m going to suppose that it means “the notion of ‘gender’ as something different than biological sex – which is the whole basis of the trans delusion – needs to be burned to the ground.”
‘* Using an epicene form for lack of anything better, since at least at a cursory glance I can’t tell whether the poster is a man or a woman.
We had a house cat who, when she had decided she’d had enough petting, would whirl around and shred your hand.
We put her down after she attacked a visiting toddler. The kid was just walking across the floor, not even looking at her, and she jumped out and shredded him.
I’m willing to be it’s pro-queer in the social and sexual senses as well.

Noticed that, did you?
‘Bullying’ used to mean (and still should) the use of or credible threat of the use of physical force by children against other children. The modern anti-bullying movement was created and pushed by gay activists to get verbal anti-gay slurs classed as “bullying” so they could leverage the zero-tolerance polices towards physical bullying already in place. The women who overwhelmingly run education in the West then latched on to it as a way of codifying Mean Girls-style social competition into formal regulation. And here we are.
Oh, that’s what it took? The few times I’ve had a cat or had to share one, I responded to any violence from the pest by smacking it upside the head, hard. They learn.
Why people accept behaviour from cats they would instantly put a dog of any size down for I’ll never understand.
That’s a lie. I totally understand why.
Because unless you live in a small town where the local sheriff is elected, the police are not on your side, and never have been. This is a difficult thing for conservatives to accept, especially law-and-order conservatives, because it requires them to upend their entire worldview. The police do what they’re told by the people who sign their paychecks, just like everyone else with a family to feed. Their oaths mean as much as that “corporate values” statement you had to sign last quarter.
