Is This Matt Taibbi's Gold Medal Moment? Exceptionally Brilliant Essay, Addressing The Mortifying Truth About Trudeau And The Refusnik Lockdown-Loving Left
From Feb 10: "Trudeau's Ceausescu Moment"
My sister Bibi brought this to my attention and I meant to share it a few days ago. It really is a “must read.”
On the morning of the 21st of December, 1989, Romanian General Secretary Nicolae Ceaușescu was in a foul mood. The Berlin Wall had fallen, and Mikhail Gorbachev and George H.W. Bush had recently announced the end of the Cold War, making the end of Ceaușescu’s rule inevitable, though he couldn’t see this yet. Worse, his security leaders had just failed to violently put down protests in the city of Timisoara, a fact that enraged his wife Elena.
“You should have fired on them, and had they fallen, you should have taken them and shoved them into a cellar,” she said. “Weren’t you told that?”
Long one of the world’s most vicious dictators, Ceaușescu’s most recent plan for winning over the heartland was forcing half the country’s villagers to destroy their own homes — with pick-axes and hammers, if they couldn’t afford a bulldozer — and packing them into project apartments in new “agro-industrial towns,” for a “better future.” Despite this, and his long history of murder, terror, and spying, Ceaușescu to the end did not grasp that his unpopularity had an organic character. He was convinced ethnically Hungarian “terrorists” were behind the latest trouble.
After reaching the balcony of Bucharest’s Central Committee building to give a speech that December day, he’s genuinely surprised when the crowd turns on him. When he tells them to be quiet, he’s befuddled by their refusal, saying, “What, you can’t hear?” Elena jumps in and yells, “Silence!”, to which Ceaușescu, hilariously, replies, “Shut up!” The crowd listens to neither of them.

Great essay, although it is highly unlikely Blackface will be put against any wall in the classical sense, or even in a literal sense by his 'pet' media, CBC. Like Castro, Chavez, Mugabe and this lot their problems were never of their making, so they pulled out the standard check-list and blamed nefarious external forces (Los Yanquis, the Brits). Blackface, Macron, Arden are all 'Children of The Davos Crowd' and are simply doing the bidding of their handlers; it is clear that they are not their own people; they're someone elses property, which calls into question 'Are we truly living in a democracy?' or "Are the leaders pre-ordained and therefore are elections corrupt?", that kind of thing.
Another former mainstream journalist in exile from their propaganda machine, Matt brings so much truth to light. Trudeau who is clearly a puppet of Mr Globalist will have to face the same scorn as the many dictators before him. Even in this most trying time it feels good to stand on the right side of history next to the likes of MLK, the Kennnedys, and Gandhi. In the end truth always prevails (and certainly with the support of writers with integrity).
