The concept that the power to name a thing is the power to define that thing is thousands of years old, and was once accorded magical powers. We recently got a lesson in this concept ourselves when a reader pointed out that “West Bank,” which we have used conversationally, is the enemy’s name for the Israeli territory of Judea and Samaria. We accordingly propose the use of “Musloid” to define and dehumanize Islamic supremacists, the self-proclaimed enemies of Civilization. This word contains two absolutely vital elements of a Name for the enemy:
(1) The “oid” suffix means “similar to a Muslim” or “Muslim in appearance” but does not encompass all Muslims. This makes it impossible for the enemy to accuse us of demonizing all Muslims, which is not our intention.
(2) The “oid” suffix also dehumanizes the enemy, which is generally desirable for propaganda to be directed to one’s own side and to neutrals on the fence. E.g. a humanoid is similar to a human in appearance but less than human in behavior and intelligence.
The purpose of this word is not to appeal to the highly educated readers of IsraPundit, Atlas Shrugs, the Wall Street Journal, and so on. Its purpose is to appeal to the lowest common denominator, or the least intelligent of those to whom we eventually seek to direct our message.* (Pictures similar to Grant Hamilton’s “The Spanish Brute” are quite good for this purpose.) Our readers will take time to read phrases like “Islamic supremacists,” “Hamas terrorists,” and other specific descriptors. “Musloid,” a single two-syllable word, is a good catch-all for widespread use among those with lesser attention spans.
I went to her website, then to her racist videos and watched one. She lost me when she started talking about Muslims having a lower IQ than other races... It reminded me too much of the racists in the South from the 60s.
I can understand why it would appeal to a few on here, though.

I think she represents well the thinking of trouble, RT and some of our other resident conservatives.
I'm going to go off topic here for a moment because I'm a former Scout.
Conservation Voice and Trouble display the American Flag backwards in their avatar. The union should be on the left (flag's own right). Also, the American flag should NOT have objects placed on, over it, or be used as a covering for a ceiling, nor have any mark, insignia, letter, work, figure, picture or drawing of any nature placed upon or attached to it.
Trouble has a pink AR15 over the flag. Outdoor338's avatar has John Wayne in front the flag that appears to be in a wave like on a pole. So Wayne is not necessarily placed upon or attached to the Stars and Stripes.

In your own mind.
The left is angry because they are now being judged by the content of their character and not by the color of their skin.
