Motor Culture Bond Girls Galore On Display In "Bond In Motion" Petersen Museum Exhibit 

This month, the long delayed and anticipated 25th edition of the 007 Bond feature length movie series "No Time To Die" was released to be shown in theaters only opened on Friday, October 8th, 2021. The worldwide opening came to a very successful $330,000,000 box office weekend and marked the end of the Daniel Craig era of the 007 Bond saga.

Billboard displays at the AMC16 in Burbank opening day of the feature presentation in the Dolby Sound enhanced Theater #14 of "No Time To Die." It is recommended that one watch both Casino Royal (2006) and Spectre (2015) before taking in "No Time To Die" so that one's mind is fresh with the storylines that feed this 25th edition of Bond, James Bond.

Just one week in advance of this 25th film in the series was released, the Petersen Automotive Museum opened a new exhibit of the 007 Bond movie franchise titled "Bond In Motion" which features more than 30 cars, motorcycles, boats, submarines, helicopters and even scale filming models of aircraft from an array of both classic and contemporary Bond films. This exhibit represents some of the most memorable and indelible 3D vehicle art that, in their own way, delivered "Bond, James Bond" through motor culture creations (some custom, and some just perfect for the time of Bond) as strong as the story lines themselves.

This exhibit is impressive on many levels, from the detail of the exhibit descriptions to the general display throughout the environment itself. One of the initial exhibits upon entering the hall that will command one's attention is the Bond defining 007 gun-enhanced graphic (above) placed in a two-story three-dimensional exhibit in the middle of the signature circular staircase that is a defining structural element of the Mullin Grand Salon.

This 1964 Silver Birch Aston Martin appears as the repeat signature motor culture Bond Girl ever since it first appeared in EON Productions' 1964 film Goldfinger. This heart-warming beauty went on to appear in Thunderball (1965), GoldenEye (1995), Tomorrow Never Dies (1997), Casino Royale (2006), Skyfall (2012), Spectre (2015) and No Time To Die (2021). In addition, the vehicle has appeared in the video-games 007 Racing (2000), Agent Under Fire (2001), From Russia with Love (2005), Blood Stone (2010), James Bond: World of Espionage (2015) and the Best of Bond DLC for Forza Horizon 4 (2018).Image Credit: Edmund Jenks (2021) 

As one might guess, an Aston Martin, especially a DB5, is never too far from one's gaze. The very first vehicle happens to be just that - a perfect DB5 in every way as shown in many of the 007 Bond films as a reoccurring friend - even in the last No Time To Die installment.

But enough about the easy hits ... what about the "Nellie" factor? A vehicle title that shows up twice - one is an up armored. assemble on demand, aircraft and the other is a luxury sports car that doubles as a submarine. 

LITTLE NELLIE

Little Nellie (Wallis WA-116 Series 1) - Featured in You Only Live Twice (1967). A heavily armed gyrocopter that could be transported in several cases and quickly assembled in the field. Little Nellie, was designed and built by Wing Commander Ken Wallis and flown by him in the film, is one of the most celebrated vehicles in the James Bond series. In the film, James Bond uses the autogyro, supplied by Q Branch, to give reconnaissance of the Japanese landscape to find out where SPECTRE’s rockets might be launching from. A cine-camera fixed to Bond's helmet allowed him to photograph every inch. Image Credit Edmund Jenks (2012)

On the exhibit floor, Little Nellie appears as a graphic in the exhibit description that features a model of a Helicopter used in You Only Live Twice (1967) by SPECTRE to protect their missile/rocket launch site.

WET NELLIE

The Lotus Esprit S1 (or Series 1) is a sports car that was built by Lotus in the United Kingdom between 1976 and 1978. The car gained fame through its appearance in the 1977 film, The Spy Who Loved Me, where it was featured in a long chase sequence on the Italian island of Sardinia; ultimately converting into a submarine. Appearing in the film's tie-in novelization and video game, the Esprit also featured in Storm Bringer (1985), 007 Racing (2000) and the Best of Bond DLC for Forza Horizon 4 (2018).

OTHER "NELLIES" - as nominated

Custom vehicles that could have carried the the moniker Nellie given their unusual nature are scattered throughout the Bond In Motion exhibit. These apparatus tools, given their unique function and special appearances, earn a vote to be nominated Nellies simply because of the fun they bring to their film stories as the original Nellies had delivered..

Two candidates for the tag Nellie come from the movie Diamonds Are Forever (1971) for vehicles designed and/or built by two of the most famous customizers of craft in the film industry.

MOON BUGGY NELLIE - Built by Dean Jefferies

BATH-O-SUB NELLIE - Built by Barris Kustom Industries 

This unique marine vehicle plays a pivotal role in Diamonds Are Forever where James Bond gets the upper hand against arch-enemy and head of SPECTRE, Ernst Stavro Blofeld.

The last nominee for adding the name Nellie to a motor culture "Bond Girl" found inside of the Bond In Motion very special exhibit inside of the Mullin Grand Salon is originally called the Q Boat ... or as listed in the Salon as the Q Jet Boat..

PORPOISING NELLIE (Q Boat)

Featured in The World Is Not Enough (1999), PORPOISING NELLIE (Q Boat) was created by Q as a "fishing boat" for his retirement.

This unique craft came with missiles, torpedos, and a GPS tracking system. It could also submerge (porpoise) although the pilot either needed to have his own breathing apparatus or surface quickly before he drowned. However, this feature wasn't exactly finished when James Bond (Pierce Brosnan) took it for the defining opening action sequence which could account for why the pilot was exposed to the water when using that function.

There are many, many honorable mentions amongst these motor culture Bond Girls that could qualify as being dubbed a Nellie, and one may wish to explore the possibilities at the Petersen Automotive Museum soon.

Maybe, a good time might come just after taking in the latest in the 25 movie series, and Daniel Craig's final episode, No Time To Die in theaters only.

"THE MAN SAID SO" Is Democrat Political Party Evolution On Women's Rights Where Women Don't Matter

Facebook Word Plate By Edmund Jenks

"THE MAN SAID SO" Is Democrat Political Party Evolution On Women's Rights Where Women Don't Matter

This is what all of this Woke-ness amounts to for DNA Females in our Democrat Political Party run America. 

If a man says he's a woman, you do not matter - your rights to compete on a level playing field in sports, the workplace given Identity Politics, in being picked for Federal or State Government Office - you do not matter if the man says so.

The PUSH For New "Equal Rights" Legislation

Red Eye Radio - Last night explored this whole issue that has been the Left-Wing agenda pushed too far so as to eliminate the 100+ years of the pursuit of Equal Rights for the Gender/Sex that are known as biological Women.

Red Eye Radio 2/24/21 Part 1 - BEGIN @ 10:00 minutes in:

Look who is marginalized in this whole thing it is Democrats - think about it that is spoken out against us oh yeah and said we can't allow this to continue.

No, stand aside, it's gonna continue and Tiitle 9 is done, that's all.

If you if you are the parent of a daughter, and your daughter wants to play sports, your daughter won't have the same opportunity as before.

I don't know, for the mainstream media probably wouldn't touch it because they know that basically Americans would sit there and say "this is absolutely insane" - but this is what Joe Biden believes this is what the Democrat Leadership ... and remember they did this day one - and notice how whether it was the incoming education secretary or Merrick Garland - none of them will address the actual question - they ignore it because they know they can't win it ... yet they continue to push it.

They can't tell you the truth about what they're doing now.

They won't be blunt and say, "No, we believe boys should play girls sports!" ... What will this mean to girls and Title 9 opportunities? ... "We don't care whether women have opportunities, men believing their women supersedes anything that a woman wants!"

Men always lead, men are the ones that dictate to women, what can they do when men can say we are women and can remove the opportunity for biological women in sports.

What a man thinks, matters - what women think doesn't matter and your daughter just needs to get used to male genitalia! Your daughter needs to get used to male genitalia! That's not what we are saying, that's the Charlotte Observer and it's Editorial Board ... that's couple years ago! [the Charlotte Observer opined] your daughter is a bigot your daughter is evil for not accepting, and wanting, and embracing male genitalia in the Locker Room ... she just needs to get used to it man!

I love this paper's "the world the Left has built" - don't you picture, could you imagine, if that was actually our opinions [on Red Eye Radio] and we promoted it on the show, could you imagine the feedback? Oh my God, if we said that - just reverse it - we're in a Bizarro World, and you and I are on the left, and be the Antimatter world - that we're in the Antimatter world.

Can you imagine of Trump said this at the start - if Trump went through 2016 promoting that but saying it exactly how it would play up?

I believe that men who say they are women have the right over your daughter or a place over them on that thing ... because white men said What Men Say Matters.

Women! When does it matter? ... and your daughters need to get used to male genitalia.

What describes it really - I think really well - is that you must submit if you're a woman to what the man says ... if the man says "I'm a woman" - you have to submit and you have to submit your chance and opportunity, your chance to compete fairly, your feelings don't matter.

What? You have taken actions that are afforded you under Title 9 - will take a back seat to the protections that are afforded the man and you can ask yourself, well ... how did the man get these protections? Because he said because he said so!

So, any answer to "Why is this is going on?"

Because the man said so - and if you're the woman you must submit to the will of the man even if the man says I am a woman and, therefore, I just don't feel like a woman - feeling like a woman makes me a biological woman - and therefore you must submit to what I believe - and if you don't, you're the bigot - and if you don't become comfortable with my genitalia, you are an intolerant, evil bigot!

This is the common sense legislation that is coming out from the Biden Administration - this is what Joe Biden thinks, and if he didn't think it, it wouldn't be happening.

This is they call Joe Biden, a moderate Democrat, this is what today's moderate Democrat believes - if The Man Said So, you, the woman must abide by what the man says, even if it is not based in any science, or any type of rational critical thinking.

If the man says it, you, the woman, must submit your rights - and regardless of how long the battle to achieve those rights [over 100 years].

To understand ... here the news was celebrated by Connecticut Attorney General William Tong, listen to what he said where told Associated Press "transgender girls are girls and every woman and girl deserves protection against discrimination. He lies, they're not girls ... and it doesn't protect against discrimination - in fact this absolutely discriminates against women and their life - its anti-women in it's massage.

[Reference Here >>>]

Honestly, it's not based in any type of science. It's based on the philosophy if the what the man says matters what the woman thinks doesn't matter.

Connecticut Attorney General William Tong didn't include the entire sentence we've been saying, Liberals never finish the sentence - if he had finished the sentence, it would be it because you're asking "How do you know they're girls?" ... because The Man Said So - right, the man gets to dictate the sexuality of a woman!

Wow! That's women's rights - this is what we talked on how insane they are.

This is where they wish to go - the insanity continues on this issue to complete and total insanity - not based in any logic - any type of critical thinking any science - any time the Democrats [and Establishment Republicans] tell you that they are the party of science, you can tell them to go jump into the lake.

ENDS

And so continues the Bizzaro World saga of the Left-Wing, Democrat, Establishment Republican, DEEP STATE of our "Bureaucracy For Life" Federal Governance here during the episode of the 2021 Carter's Second Term known as the Joe Biden 46th Presidency.

We, at MAXINE, say no to The Man Said So solutions to women's rights - there 'ya' go.

Washington D.C. Opens New Museum - NEWSEUM - REPRISED & UPDATED 

Originally Published April 10, 2008 - 8:27am - Edmund Jenks, MAXINE

 The nation’s capitol city, Washington D.C., plays host to a new major museum dedicated to news, news gathering, news print, production and broadcast, news workers and memoriam, and a Newsroom where interviews are broadcast. 

 NEWSEUM – The interactive Museum Of News, is located adjacent to the Smithsonian museums on the National Mall at the intersection of Pennsylvania Avenue and Sixth Street, N.W., Washington, D.C.. 

The official dedication ceremony and opening is scheduled for Friday, April 11, 2008. The Newseum features seven levels of galleries, theaters, retail spaces and visitor services. It offers a unique environment that takes museumgoers behind the scenes to experience how and why news is made.

 

A $25 million grant from the John S. and James L. Knight Foundation to the Newseum — the largest investment from the news community to the newest museum in the nation's capital — will honor the news legacy of the Knight brothers. The grant gives the Knight name to two broadcast studios and a conference center at the Newseum, the largest single project ever devoted to journalism and the free flow of news. Image Credit: NEWSEUM Pressroom 

This morning, NEWSEUM held one of its first broadcasts of a live news conference from a studio inside the museum. 

The joint news conference began with statements from General David Petraeus and Ambassador Ryan Crocker on the status of conditions in Iraq, followed by questions fielded from the audience (presumably museumgoers and actual reporters) as a final appearance after their debriefing reports delivered to the Senate and Congress over the last couple of days.

Newseum Blends High-Tech With Historical 

The Newseum — a 250,000-square-foot museum of news — offers visitors an experience that blends five centuries of news history with up-to-the-second technology and hands-on exhibits. ---- 

"Visitors will come away with a better understanding of news and the important role it plays in all of our lives," said Newseum Executive Director and Senior Vice President Joe Urschel. "The new Newseum is educational, inspirational and a whole lot of fun." ---- 

What They're Saying - A look at media coverage of the Newseum 

“Were he alive today, Sen. Daniel Patrick Moynihan would have appreciated the Newseum, opening April 11 on the last revitalized site along Pennsylvania Avenue Northwest. 

He spearheaded the four-decade-long effort to revive the inaugural parade route with distinguished buildings and open spaces worthy of “America’s Main Street.” The Newseum caps his vision with contemporary architecture far bolder than the last major design completed on the street. … It is sheathed in glass, not masonry, to reveal some of its activity inside and counter the sealed-up monumentality so prevalent in Washington.” 

— Deborah K. Dietsch, The Washington Times “An endless network of corridors and theaters contains a wealth of news materials that are, at least to someone of my generation, a wonderful and moving evocation of the past. … The Newseum is an attic simply packed with fascinating stuff.” 

— Robert Campbell, The Boston Globe “The new incarnation of the Newseum is dazzling, innovative and absorbing, a first-class addition to the capital's cultural institutions.” 

— Howard Kurtz, The Washington Post “From every frenetic corner, the Newseum fairly shouts, ‘News is necessary to a functioning democracy. News is fun, news is cool, news matters.’” 

— Maria Puente, USA Today “Many Washington museums document the nation’s history. ... As it elevates and illuminates the usually gritty, sometimes glamorous work of the press, the Newseum looks set to give its neighbors some competition.” 

— Owen Phillips, Men's Vogue The Newseum is "among the most prominent" museums in the world, "perched on the last buildable site on the presidential inaugural parade route between the Capitol and the White House. And it is one of the most ambitious, both in design and aspiration." 

— Katharine Q. Seelye, The New York Times "At a time when journalists are reeling from scathing rebukes and public skepticism about their profession, the gleaming Newseum is poised to become a welcome reminder of all that's good about the business." 

— Jessica Meyers, American Journalism Review "The importance of the First Amendment is hard to miss at the Newseum: Visitors are greeted with a three-story-high engraving of the amendment's words next to the front entrance. ... The new location has a commanding view of the Capitol." 

— APME Gazette "The Newseum will be particularly exciting because officials expect it will be a place to spot news personalities and newsmakers alike." 

— Elizabeth Brotherton, Roll Call ----

KNIGHT FOUNDATION JOINS NEWSEUM'S FOUNDING PARTNERS WITH A LEAD CONTRIBUTION OF $25 MILLION 

Conference Center, Broadcast Studios to Be Named in Honor of Knight Brothers WASHINGTON — 

A $25 million grant from the John S. and James L. Knight Foundation to the Newseum — the largest investment from the news community to the newest museum in the nation's capital — will honor the news legacy of the Knight brothers.  

Opening April 11 on Pennsylvania Avenue, the new 250,000-square-foot, interactive museum of news will remind generations of Washington visitors of the importance of the First Amendment, free speech and the role of the media in a free society. 

The grant gives the Knight name to two broadcast studios and a conference center at the Newseum, the largest single project ever devoted to journalism and the free flow of news. ---- 

"The Newseum will immediately become one of the most important platforms for discussion of free speech in America," said Alberto Ibargüen, president of Knight Foundation. "We want to be part of that conversation, we want our journalism grantees to be part of that conversation and we want the values the Knight brothers stood for and defended to be integral to that conversation." ---- 

Once opened, the new museum's two Knight broadcast studios, including the Pennsylvania Avenue Studio overlooking the U.S. Capitol, will be the location of top-flight news programs and civic dialogue on the issues of the day. 

"Millions of Americans travel to the National Mall to learn more how to be an American," said Steiger, editor in chief of ProPublica. "It's fitting for the Fourth Estate to take up residence there." Knight Foundation joins a host of supporters from news and journalism contributing to the Newseum, including the Annenberg Foundation, The New York Times, News Corporation, Cox Enterprises, Hearst Corporation, ABC News, NBC News and Time Warner. ----

One Question: 

(spawned after a review of the names of supporters contributing to the NEWSEUM) 

Will the New Media spur of the “fourth estate” get its own Wing and Blogging studio? 

 Anytime soon?

 

NowPublic Awarded

UPDATE - UPDATE - UPDATE 

NEWSEUM closes it's doors for good on February 19, 2021 - and in this age of Social Media censoring, dubious "Fact Checking", and account suspension/cancellation along with outright social portal de-platforming from server farms (as what happened with the 1 Billion dollar social media platform PARLER being pulled off of Amazon Web Services server farm - without notice or cause given tenants of Free Speech) supported by America's Fourth Estate - this is good.

Yes, the Newseum’s First Amendment Tablet Is Coming Down. 

No, It’s Not Because Democracy Has Failed.

The 50-ton, 74-foot-tall marble tablet is going into storage, and maybe someday, a new home.

WRITTEN BY MIMI MONTGOMERY, Washingtonian   | PUBLISHED ON FEBRUARY 18, 2021

Yesterday, photojournalist Megan Smith tweeted out now-viral images of the tablet being disassembled from the building’s facade. Of course, because this is the internet, some folks decided this was an apt metaphor for the state of today’s media, or a reflection of the Biden administration’s approach toward journalists.

----

In reality, the tablet is coming down because…the museum is closed and the building has been sold. You can still check it out, though: The display hasn’t been fully taken apart, says a Freedom Forum representative. Once it is fully disassembled, it will go into storage, says the representative, with hopes to find it a home where it can be permanently displayed.

From Pathogen To Profit - A Review Of Legalizing Biological Health Events

It is important to know just how much societies are being manipulated by strong and powerful forces aligning themselves to cash in on extreme profit aided by Government forces that are into this fear and panic, not for profit, but for Control. Group profit and group slavery are tremendous motivators. Image Credit: Elevate (2020)

From Pathogen To Profit - A Review Of Legalizing Biological Health Events

IBM started digitizing Patent Filings in 1999 and filed around 1,000,000 Patents. What has been discovered from 1999 going forward, fully 33.3% of all Patents were forgeries based on changes in language in original filings of Patents on the same subject matter.

Unless one has unlimited resources to invest in legal actions to protect original Patents, that intellectual property will be stolen by any unscrupulous person, business, or Nation-State.

In 2003, everything began to coalesce around Patents starting with SARS - methods for producing recombinant coronavirus - Patent US 7279327.

Through all manner of National & International law, natural occurring biological agents are not subject to a Patent and not legal, further, biological weapons in the forms of any manipulation from chemical to biological variants are illegal.

Patents an "Gain-Of-Function" research and its political support through taxpayer funding raised the first Red flags on this war on Humanity in the pursuits of extreme profit.

CBS Sunday Morning - What I Learned - 2020 Has Highlighted Illusions Of Control

 

It is rare for any of us to put our beliefs about control to the test. When companies have actually tested whether their advertising works, they often find surprising results, such as eBay’s revelation that the return on its advertising investment might actually be negative. So is it wiser to assume we’re not in control of either our own health or of how customers view us?  That can lead to the opposite error - to be underconfident about what we can control. It is easy to identify tragic missed opportunities that can arise from this belief. Caption Credit: The Berkley Blog - Image Credit: Pinterest (2020)

CBS Sunday Morning - What I Learned - 2020 Has Highlighted Illusions Of Control

Most elevators have some form of a “close door” button. Impatient elevator riders the world over push that button when they want the elevator to get moving. Unbeknownst to them, their button-pushing efforts are useless. The vast majority of building managers and elevator programmers think they know when the doors should close, and have deactivated the button. Pushing the button has no effect, yet people continue to push it. This is just one example of the “illusion of control”: Acting as if we control something that we don’t.

[ht: The Berkley Blog]

Someone needs to tell City, County, State, & Federal leaders that there is no such thing as controlling a virus, no matter where it comes from. The one thing we all know now, in spite of the Mass Media's love of "Panic Porn" is that given any general population of Humanity, the virus from Wuhan China is 99.95+% survivable no matter what others want you to believe.

ENTER life at one's own level of known risk given one's demographic of vulnerability, but do not be tempted to push the elevator "Close Door" button.

We, at MAXINE have this political footnote to impart that is also related to this year of our Lord 2020 - Think Dominion Tabulation Systems and a Republican vote - the vote will be diminished or not be counted.

Democratic Agenda For 2020 & Beyond: Pat Lynch - President NYC Police Benevolent Association

Democratic Agenda For 2020 & Beyond: Pat Lynch - President NYC Police Benevolent Association

Democrats are working toward an intended consequence that amounts to a hijacking of our criminal justice systems that had worked very well at assuring safety for citizens and working families everywhere.

In city after city, the Democrats have passed laws and implemented policies that do not recognize theft, that eliminate cash bail and promises to appear, restrict the powers of policing, and empty our jails. District Attorneys do not prosecute cases at the level they once did to keep criminals in check in an effort to create more put-upon victims so that Democrats have a base of potential voters to groom for their own path to power.

The chaos we have been seeing grow in our communities isn't a side effect, it is the goal. Unchecked illegal immigration, Sanctuary City policies, non-enforcement of vagrancy laws through transference from policing to city staffed social worker agencies (who stay in their air-conditioned offices), COVID-19 mass releasing of guilty known criminals from prisons and jails before their sentences are fully served (when Shelter-At-Home and Masks are required through governmental edict for everyday law abiding citizens), road and street "diets" imposed without a vote from citizens by city bureaucrats which impede and slow the pursuits of happiness and commerce on once major boulevard arteries, all intended to create a less than best practices impaired society Democrat political leaders can run on.

To be clear, Patrick Lynch, President of NYPD’s Police Benevolent Association, stated it best in his presentation during the final day of the Republican National Convention - “Democratic politicians have surrendered our streets and our institutions. I have been a New York City police officer for 36 years…I’ve never seen our streets go this bad so quickly.”

“Unlike the Democrats, who froze in the face of rioting and looting, President Trump matches his words with his actions,” Mr. Lynch said. “He gives law enforcement the support and the tools we need to go out there and put a stop to it - period, end of story.”

We, at MAXINE, wish to get our America and American Culture back where people are safe, have a criminal justice system that works as intended (keeping convicted criminals housed and in check), and operates peacefully under the full rights as guaranteed by God, not decreed by Government, as laid out in our country's founding documents - where people/individuals have more power than Government ... in the end.

As in the final comments made by Patrick Lynch - Joe Biden's, Kamala Harris', and the Democrat Political Party's America Equals "No Safety, No Justice, No Peace!"

The short animated video by the husband-and-wife team of Juan Delcan & Valentina Izaguirre shows a row of matchsticks lined up like dominoes. A first match is ignited, and the flame begins to spread rapidly from one match to the next, spelling certain doom for the entire group—that is until one of the matches comes to life, stepping out of the line and out of range of the fire.

Breaking the chain stopps the blaze, much the way that social distancing will keep more people from catching COVID-19.

“Do your part and stay home,” wrote Juan Delcan on Twitter.

Sharing the piece in a post that has since been liked over 4,000 times and shared over 2,000 times—including by actress Olivia Wilde, who has herself amassed nearly 50,000 likes and over 18,000 Retweets for her post of Safety Match. On Instagram, the 12-second clip has been viewed more than half a million times with upwards of 84,000 likes.

“We knew people were going to watch it, but I don’t think we expected this global response,” said Izaguirre. “We’ve been up since 3 a.m. giving interviews!”

What’s been the most rewarding is the response from young people, she added. “We get messages that say ‘hey, this really helped me understand the situation.'”

The couple, who have been together ten years, met on the set of a commercial. Delcan was the director; Izaguirre, the wardrobe stylist. “We started making art and collaborating basically on day one,” she recalled.

The artists have been making matchstick artworks for about a year, with Izaguirre designing the sets while Declan does the animation in Cinema 4-D.

We, at MAXINE, couldn't be more enthralled or informed through this really ingenious use of modern phone technology, animation, and matchsticks.

LATEST ... Progressive Victim Class/Oppressor Class Cudgel On Everyday Society

Many young men dream of working in oilfields because the money is excellent. Although being employed on an oil rig is difficult and involves lots of manual labor, this career has been around for centuries now. Image Credit: Rig Oilfield Services (2018)

LATEST ... Progressive Victim Class/Oppressor Class Cudgel On Everyday Society

The Left-Wing isn't happy unless, like sharks, they keep swimming on the push provided by another Victim Class/Oppressor Class talking point. Today's entry into the lexicon that hopes to gain traction in social conversation is Petro-Masculinity.

As with other Victim Class/Oppressor Class progressive beat-down points of contention - Toxic-Masculinity | Gender Identity |  Non-Binary | Gay Marriage | Gender Neutral - the progressive agenda of eliminating a cultural identification and role assumption of weak vs strong and etc. never ends and remains as fertile ground for chaos development.
 
Fossil fuels create a warped sense of “masculine identity” and “authoritarianism” among men, asserts feminist professor, Virginia Tech University, Cara Daggett - who issued a study paper titled “Petro-masculinity: Fossil Fuels and Authoritarian Desire” that explain her thoughts on the matter at the intersection of environment and toxic masculinity.

Screen grab - Alicia Massie: #masculinity & work morality in Canadian oilsands. Building on Coles (2009) and Anderson (2008), analysis shows family as the foundation of petro-economy and gender enacted in collective petro-economy identity (e.g. oilfield dad, oil wife).

PULL QUOTE:
“Petro-masculinity, like fossil fuel systems, arguably has global dimensions,” Daggett asserts. “However, like other masculinities, petro-masculinity should be understood as manifesting in multiple, and locally specific, ways. Petro-masculinity approaches masculinity as a socially constructed identity that emerges ‘within a gender order that defines masculinity in opposition to femininity, and in so doing, sustains a power relation between men and women as groups.”
ENDS

WHAT?

Words, so many words without an actual meaning other than to confuse and contort into a cudgel of pretzel-logic upon which to breathe new life into a Progressive style meme - Petro-Masculinity, indeed.

All Democrat leadership and its public relations firm, the Left-Wing Media Complex, are 100% in the camp of Identity Politics and as the comment/observation suggests - have taken the pointing out and exploitation of victims to a new level of oppression as a tool!

Democrats have to decide, and declare if they are "all in" on this tool upon which society is beat up so that Democrats believe they are gaining some power - or work for another way by gaining power through providing good solutions.

We, at MAXINE, wonder - if any of these progressives were in an automobile accident, or had a heart attack, what, exactly, would be responding to their emergency - a gas-powered, petro-masculinity based Ambulance?

Will The 44th Presidency's, Carter's Second Term, FBI Ever Be Trusted Again?

Former FBI official: the Bureau has become corrupted by ideology and ego... and there's growing discontent among the rank and file (VIDEO). Image Credit: Tucker Carlson via FB (2018)

Will The 44th Presidency's, Carter's Second Term, FBI Ever Be Trusted Again?

MAYBE ... never ...

... include the whole of the Department Of Justice (DOJ) now that they just issued their Inspector General (IG) Report and it followed the exact template that then FBI Director presented nearly 2 years ago when he, Comey, went through the laundry list of law-breaking by Hillary Rodham Clinton (HRC) then ending with the conclusion that NO PROSECUTOR would take HRC to trial.

The DOJ IG Report went through nearly 500 pages of descriptions of Political BIAS, over-reaches in power, deviance of FBI procedure, and unequal justice - then ending with the concluding ruling that NO Provable Political BIAS existed in the illegal HRC private email server investigation.

These people distort process in order to pursue their collective progressive political ego and personality. Ego and emotion rules the day as these bureaucracies pile Bias upon Bias in order to undo the fair election of a 45th President that is anybody but Hillary Rodham Clinton.

The FBI was rigging an election for President of the United States on behalf of one political party over the other.

We, at MAXINE, see Bias upon Bias along with Fix upon Fix "being placed in" to insure a Clinton Presidency using a two-tiered justice system where anybody but Hillary Clinton would be arrested for the countless felonies in the mishandling of classified information on her illegal private email server.

If the FBI will ever be trusted again, the rank and file will have to step forward and become the face of  - first, justice - then proper process over ideology and ego.
