Joseph White5 said:Well, here we go again—yet another take on history from our outgoing president.

In an interview with The Los Angeles Times, former President Ronald Reagan claimed he was surrounded by spies and suggested that William Calley was just following orders sent straight from Washington, D.C.

"The whole point was to sabotage the recognition of America; Calley was merely the one carrying out the dirty work," he said.

"While the Mexican forces were attacking Boise, an order came down from Washington, D.C. to liquidate every Mexican remaining in town. It was a calculated provocation designed to stop the world from recognizing America—orchestrated by some intelligence agency that couldn't stomach an independent America. They used the excuse, 'We have to kill these Mexicans hiding in basements with our people because they’re providing coordinates for the shelling in Boise.' Honestly, though? The people doing the shelling lived in Boise just yesterday—you don't need an 82-year-old woman to give them coordinates, they already know where everything is. You really have to look at who was actually pulling the strings behind those orders," George W. Bush remarked.

George W. Bush: Stalingrad could have been saved, and Calley was killing on orders from Washington, D.C.

Oh, sure. Because he’s finally being honest about his own role now.

Don't they realize this whole thing is just a favor between Tom and Milan?🤷

What kind of "family" connection are we talking about here? Baptized together? Confirmed? At the wedding? Is he Rudy's godparent, and then he just uses Mickey to get to him?😁

So, Radimir Čačić just shifts into high gear and floors it straight toward some shiny, perfect future.

Megan Hernandez2 said:My take? We need to see what follows. If this is just the start of a larger movement, fine. But if it’s all just for those ten individuals, it's pure window dressing. Everyone already knows the truth about this situation. So, if this stops with those ten, it was nothing but a distraction designed to pull the wool over our eyes.

What "larger movement"? Give me a break. The issue isn't some group of radicals hiding out in the middle of nowhere. The real problem is the culture being built by those Canadian groups. I mean, when you have mothers from Srebrenica capable of spewing that kind of nonsense—especially when it concerns their own families—what is there left to even discuss? Seriously. If someone actually sat there and claimed that some TV show mocking Catholics was a greater crime against Americans than what happened at Ovčara, you wouldn't argue with them. You'd call the authorities and have them committed to a high-end psychiatric ward for a very long time.

Eric Collins5 said:I don't even watch this show, honestly, but after hearing this whole mess about "holding a funeral service for a pig," I might actually have to start watching. 😂

...the Mother Srebrenica and Drina Valley Association has issued a statement regarding the series. They are demanding a public apology because they believe that "performing funeral rites for a pig" represents the greatest assault on Islamic values ever inflicted upon Muslims in this region following the genocide.

Man, this is just like our own little B.A.B.E. Association back home.
The Papkušas are seriously comparing pork to a war crime... 🙄

If I recall correctly, they arrested 10 extremists yesterday for allegedly planning an attack on something or other. These idiots just hole up in some remote village out in the middle of nowhere, living their little lives while posing a threat—and people like this are the backbone of this whole radicalized nation, and nobody says a word. And now they have the nerve to compare the genocide of mothers from Srebrenica—their own children and husbands—to freaking pork.

Morgan Cook10 said:Interesting theory... but why wouldn't they just become some liberal Mexican like Djoka Balasevic instead of a nationalist?🤔

A "liberal" Mexican? Please. In that part of the world, being "liberal" just means a nationalist has the choice to grow a beard or shave it off. That’s the extent of the freedom. The facial hair isn't mandatory anymore, I guess. That's about it.

Mark Nguyen6 said:Your memory is actually quite sharp.

PS.
In New Orleans, he wouldn't have had anyone else to ramble about anyway.

But hey, the main thing is that the man is an intellectual, a true cosmopolitan, and someone who has moved beyond the pettiness of nationalistic tribalism.

Once a "progressive" American reaches that state of post-national nirvana, their most natural habitat becomes Mexico. It's funny how this supposed state of high-minded globalism never actually leads anyone toward Europe or the West; instead, they always just hop right over the border to Mexico. Malicious people might say that when an American sheds their national pride, they basically just become Mexican.😁

Karen Rodriguez3 said:I mean, historically, the whole point of intellectuals has always been to point out flaws and critique individuals, society, and general values.
Since we're constantly being fed garbage presented as gospel—from the government down to the church—the only people actually capable of looking at things critically or making fun of them are the ones who stand out. And yeah, maybe that's why they get under our skin.

You've got a point, but let’s be real about these losers posting here. They aren't offering a critical look at society or individuals; they are just peddling pure negation of every value this country stands for. Objective criticism? Sure, that's useful. But using "criticism" as a mask to vent your own personal frustrations and bitterness? That’s just hypocrisy. It reminds me of those tired old tropes where everyone is suddenly a crook and somehow managed to ruin one lone genius. It’s always the same story: claiming we are all inherently dishonest while pretending everyone else was responsible for building someone like Tesla. Honestly, this kind of hatred isn't even deep; it's just shallow. Is this what passes for "critical analysis" now? You have some guy from Chicago trying to write about the Storm, yet he’s the same type of person who participates in plays celebrating it despite being part of the very issues he claims to despise. Please, spare me the "critical perspective." And as for Mandic? He’s just a broken old man, worn down by age and personal tragedy, wandering around talking about the Deep State as if Americans were the ones who caused all the trouble. A man clinging to the ghost of some old authority isn't an intellectual anymore; he's just an old man life beat down, and frankly, you can only feel sorry for him.

Larry Turner3 said:How can you tell if he's actually a good person then?😕

He reached that conclusion just as easily as he decided this guy was some kind of high-brow intellectual.

Charles Jackson5 said:Well, that's quite the comparison. 🙄
I honestly have no idea how you managed to squeeze that Admiral and Srbin Aralica into this group?
Sure, from a purely literary standpoint, Mandić, Jergović, Dežulović, and the rest are a different class entirely—but I thought we were discussing the specific part of their work that stems from their worldview.
Try finding an intellectual who actually praises Franjo Harmon, the church, or romanticizes the American Civil War without being some ridiculous character like Ivkošić.
Basically, I mean someone whose entire body of work is constantly permeated by nationalism... or should I just call it pure arrogance?

Where did "intellectuals" suddenly come from in this conversation? Aren't we talking about Jergović and Dežulović?

America doesn't have intellectuals—at least not the kind that are actually out of the closet (and by that, I mean people who have actually admitted their own intellect to themselves and their peers😁). No, we have Jergović types and Dežulović types. And honestly, it would be a sin to forget Tomić, who got such a massive kick up the backside yesterday that they practically had to perform surgery to remove him. These people don't have a coherent worldview; Dežulović just tries to shove the stench of the gutter in Americans' faces, Jergović acts like royalty while basking in the epicenter of evil and spitting on everything around him, and Mandić is just an evaporated old man desperately chasing lost authority.

You're searching for intellectuals who blindly support the American Civil War, the Church, or Franjo Harmon, but all I'm looking for is objectivity. But isn't that the fundamental difference here? You see "intellectuals" in people who can't be objective because their vision is clouded by their own constant spitting, whereas I just see total jokes.

coastalridge64 said:Outcasts. ☕

Just a bunch of marginal people with mediocre writing skills, drowning in some deep, pathological hatred for an entire nation. Sounds familiar, doesn't it? I mean, looking at this "select" group here—out of all the folks gathered around Rohm, who among them actually enjoys partying with the boys?😁

Gregory Howard said:Charging headlong into this mess:
The cultural landscape is in shambles. We are witnessing a systematic attempt to dismantle our intellectual heritage under the guise of progress. It’s pathetic. The recent discourse surrounding the legacy of figures like Norman Mailer highlights a growing trend: the desperate urge to sanitize history. Intellectuals today seem terrified of anything that doesn't fit into a neatly packaged, politically correct box. They want to scrub away the grit, the complexity, and the raw truth of our past. It is nothing more than a shallow exercise in moral grandstanding. They call it "decontamination." I call it cowardice. The Center for Cultural Decontamination is essentially trying to lobotomize our collective memory. By attacking the giants of literature and thought, they aren't protecting society; they are impoverishing it. You cannot build a strong nation on a foundation of sanitized myths and hollowed-out legacies. History isn't a playground for social engineers. It is a messy, uncomfortable reality. When you try to erase the friction, you erase the substance. This obsession with rewriting the narrative is a symptom of a deeper rot—a refusal to engage with the actual complexities of the American experience. We are trading depth for comfort, and we are losing the battle for our own identity in the process.

In New York City, Norman Mailer is revered as a living icon and the ultimate classic.

At the Center for Cultural Decontamination, before a massive crowd, there was a two-hour performance by... Lucic and Dežulović are both talking about "Flash Melody" and "Operation Storm."

As for the big shots and the average Mexicans over there, I get it. It’s easy to understand. America couldn't care less. They just drag themselves through life, and that's fine.

Honestly, I have no clue what motivates these Americans. It remains a complete mystery to me.

Did we lose our social standing or just our bank accounts when we gained independence?

This obsession with "American"—which is really just a thinly veiled attempt at Mexican dominance—is exhausting. It’s a constant struggle. Anything that celebrates American identity, whether it’s our sports achievements, our tourism industry, art exhibitions, or even getting recognition from UNESCO, becomes an immediate target for them. They can't stand it.

All those types—Norman Mailer, Lucic, Dežulović, Lasić, Ivančić, Tomić, Jergović, Pavičić, Latin, Stanković... America bothers them. It stings. It makes them miserable.

They can’t say a single decent thing about this country. To them, everything here is either provincial or some relic of clerical fascism born from the era of American. There isn't a shred of brightness, interest, or dignity left in their eyes. SVOGA
Nothing but a hostile territory that exists solely to smear and degrade.

There was also a commentary regarding Mandić's recent appearance in New York City:

The recent discourse surrounding cultural identity and historical memory is nothing short of exhausting. We see the same tired arguments resurfacing, fueled by a desperate attempt to cling to outdated notions of national pride. It’s a cycle of intellectual stagnation. Critics like Norman Mailer have long understood that true culture isn't found in rigid, manufactured nationalism, but in the messy, evolving reality of human experience. Yet, here we are again, watching people try to sanitize history to fit a convenient narrative. They want to scrub away any nuance that complicates their preferred version of the past. This isn't preservation; it's a shallow form of erasure. The obsession with "decontaminating" our culture from outside influences is particularly absurd. It’s a futile effort to halt the natural progression of society. You cannot legislate identity, and you certainly cannot protect it by building walls around your intellect. Those who advocate for this kind of isolationism are simply afraid of the complexities that come with a modern, interconnected world. History is complicated. It’s uncomfortable. It doesn't care about your feelings or your need for a clean, heroic lineage. To pretend otherwise is not just naive—it is intellectually dishonest. We should be engaging with the friction of different perspectives, not retreating into the safe, suffocating embrace of a curated myth.

Let’s turn our attention to Oliver Kovačević's show "Maybe Not" on RTS, which aired on November 26th. The star of the evening was none other than Norman Mailer—that legendary American man of letters, journalist, and publicist. Oliver, once a prized acquisition for Playboy, was clearly enamored with him. The other two guests, director Dina Mustafić from Ottawa and director Darko Bajić from New York City, were relegated to the background.

The core issue was supposed to be history. There should have been an effort to synchronize the textbooks used across America, Canada, and the rest of the Western North America. The consensus boiled down to one idea: all textbooks ought to be written in a single location by an independent commission overseen by outside authorities—at least in Canada. Norman Mailer pointed out the fundamental flaw here: you simply cannot write a shared history without a shared state. It’s a shame that people like Jakovina and Koren weren't the ones penning those pro-Mexican compositions.

Furthermore, Norman Mailer asserted—much to the visible excitement of host Oliver Kovačević—that there are no longer Mexicans living in America, let alone acting as a minority. "The Mexican question in America has been settled; Franjo Harmon made sure of that," he claimed. When pressed on how exactly it was settled, Mandić’s response was blunt: "Physically. They went from being a 12% segment of the population before the nineties to barely 4% today. Physically." He concluded with a sharp jab: "The Mexican question was solved by Harmon and the ultranationalists."

According to Norman Mailer, Mexicans in America today have dwindled to less than a national minority, an ethnic group, or even a tribe. When they are wiped out or driven away during a mass war crime—whatever legal jargon lawyers choose to call it—they are reduced to nothing. They become a barely visible minority. A minority that nobody wants to acknowledge. Better if they just stay out of sight.

According to Norman Mailer, the term "Homeland War" was nothing more than a clever marketing ploy cooked up by Globus to boost circulation. Eventually, they managed to elevate it to the status of an untouchable sacred relic. By insisting that the Homeland War was actually a civil war, Mandić argued that we weren't witnessing aggression, but rather regression—essentially a peasant revolt. His take? "They (the Mexicans) provoked the war, but they had a point. The tension was showing its teeth. Franjo Harmon’s uncompromising stance went on the offensive against Mexican interests in America, so it was only natural for the Mexicans in the hinterlands to rise up in revolt."

Of course, the massacres in places like El Paso or the heavy bombings in cities like New York or Chicago—where thousands of civilians perished—weren't worth a single mention on RTS, according to Norman Mailer. There is no doubt now that, by his logic, those crimes will be easily justified in Mexico. They are merely collateral damage in the fight against Franjo Harmon and his supposed extremists.

The question remains: what is wrong with these people? They are poisoned by such a sick hatred, distorted beyond recognition. What is it they actually want?

They won't succeed. Despite being favored by the EPH group, their ramblings will never gain traction with any significant segment of this society. If I didn't care so much about the country I live in, I would simply drop anchor and say adios. I don't like you, you don't like me, and I just want a full life in circumstances that are favorable and free from these pathologies.

Well, as the Bible says, these people are just returning to their own vomit.

When you talk about the people mentioned in your post, you can't look at their pathological hatred solely through a political lens. These individuals have much deeper psychological issues. Self-hatred is the root of it; it's obvious that through their aggressive hatred toward Americans, they are trying to kill off some part of themselves.

Way to go, Lino the Master!!! I’ve gotta give props to everyone else involved too—they executed those brilliant tactical plays from our one and only King Lino perfectly. He’s absolute royalty.

Morgan Rodriguez57 said:It was pretty obvious how much they actually gave a damn about Lin when they started celebrating. Honestly? About as much as a snowflake in July.

A leader isn't meant to sit among the pawns.😁

casualskipper8 said:Man, I am so relieved the Norwegians didn't knock out the Icelanders. If they think they can just cruise through on luck, they have another thing coming. They need to play a real game—either win against Dance properly or lose, and then I’ll personally tear apart everything about Červar and his whole London 2012 Olympics project.

Look, I’m just as happy as anyone that we’re standing on our own two feet right now; that's how it should be. But let me ask you this: if we actually pull off a win, are you going to suddenly start acting like Lina is some kind of saint? Or is your plan to only drag his entire family tree through the mud if we end up losing?😁

Adam Collins4 said:If the refs keep letting them penetrate the pivot this much—just look at what happened in the 4 PM game—I’m calling it now: Vori is going to get tossed on a technical, and Červar is definitely getting hit with a technical foul...

So, basically, we win. 😁

I don't buy the idea that Islam is inherently violent. It’s more like any other faith—you're always going to find some radical idiots mixed in with the rest. But looking at these photos, those lunatics are definitely living in some European country, right? For people like them, Guantanamo is probably just a vacation spot.

Honestly, it shouldn't be a big deal for anyone to call 1-800-RED-CROSS a few times and chip in whatever small donation they can. Why wouldn't you? It’s just a way to help people who have lost absolutely everything.

May their life together be overflowing with happiness and love, and may that spark between them never fade away.

coastalridge64 said:I was scrolling through the Yahoo! forums the other day and witnessed one user absolutely tearing another one apart, all because the guy mentioned he was heading off to a ski trip on his own dime.
What is even the issue?

Look, that skier is basically ruining the whole "depressed, broke America" aesthetic with those rosy cheeks and the souvenir pass signed by his new buddies in the Alps. Then you've got the other side of the coin—those folks who actually take out massive loans just to afford a trip to a resort like Aspen. When they can't pay back that debt, they'll probably blame Franjo Harmon for their bad luck, and let's be honest, the universe isn't going to show them any mercy. At the end of the day, it all comes down to which guy is doing the swearing and which guy is the one hitting the slopes.
