Here at Balladeer’s Blog I’ve written plenty over the years about how the increasing derangement, intolerance and fascism of the Democrats drove me to leave that political party and become an Independent Voter. Periodically I shine light on other people who have come to feel the same way. Here are several:
Misha Petrov did a YouTube video that made a lot of news lately as she joined so many of us in recognizing how hate-filled the Democrats have become. The link to the full piece is below but first some excerpts –
“The video centered around how Petrov had considered herself a Democrat like most people her age. She was neck-deep in leftism, especially in her university … She couldn’t get through a math class without it being woke. Soon, Petrov found herself unable to continue identifying with the left and as her video states, she left it. This includes her university which had sunk so far into wokeness that it stopped being a place of learning.” (NOTE FROM BALLADEER: Which is why I often refer to how Democrats have distorted the educational system into a church of irrational thought and political intolerance.)
“Petrov would be pushed further away from the left as her university descended into madness. Men would walk into women’s restrooms under the claim they were trans but would put no effort into looking like a woman at all, and assignments from professors would focus on identity politics and trigger warnings. Soon, Petrov would walk away from the hypocrisy and infantilization she was being forced to embrace.” Continue reading

It may be my fondness for mythology that makes me love to watch particular movies around particular holidays. I say that because many of the well- known myths were recited on ancient holidays when their subject matter was relevant to those festivities. The stories helped accentuate the meaning of the special events and that’s the reason I love holiday-themed movies. 
Independent Voter site Balladeer’s Blog takes another look at recent political cartoons, many of them about career criminal Joe Biden and the Biden Crime Family. 
Up first below is yet another reminder about how illegitimate the Democrats’ absurd January 6th Committee is, with Democrat violence once again sweeping the nation and with Democrats calling for the violent deaths of government figures. 
The notorious 
It’s become impossible to ignore the way that the corrupt establishment and their corporate media outlets fear populism and obsessively try to demonize it. In a way it’s a replay of the late 1800s when the labor movement was striking and demanding better pay and working conditions. The establishment responded with ugly demonization of working class people’s efforts to survive as something more than peasants, just as they have against populists like Donald Trump. 
Here in the 21st Century, in which the old paradigm of Liberalism vs Conservatism is being replaced by Populism vs Neo-Feudalism, we have seen a Populist like de facto Third Party President Donald Trump become the establishment’s new Eugene Debs – a bogeyman to be propagandized against and shrilly demonized along with his supporters. I’m an Independent voter and, like so many other people, I’ve observed how Trump was the greatest president for the working class and the poor in several decades. He was also the first president in decades to keep America out of any new wars and brought us energy independence. 
THANK YOU once again to all of you readers for making Balladeer’s Blog so enjoyable to write. As I always say the unusual and controversial items I sometimes churn out here mean that readers have to be open-minded and very secure in their own beliefs not to just take offense and leave.
PRIME CUT (1972): Gangster movie review 
Independent Voter site Balladeer’s Blog wishes you a happy Juneteenth, commemorating the day Democrats lost their slaves. African-Americans continue fighting for their freedom from the Democrats, who today treat people of color like they still own them and that they MUST vote for Democrats and ONLY Democrats. Democrat Joe Biden, embodying the grotesque hypocrisy of that detestable political party, EULOGIZED A KLANSMAN – DEMOCRAT SENATOR ROBERT BYRD – yet Biden thinks he’s fit to give finger-wagging lectures to the rest of us.
