Pat Flood (@rebarcock) passed away 9/21/25. Pat played a huge role in encouraging the devolopmemt of this site and donated the very first dollar to get it started. Check the thread at the top of the board for the obituary and please feel free to pay your respects there. I am going to get all the content from that thread over to his family so they can see how many people really cared for Pat outside of what they ever knew. Pat loved to tell stories and always wanted everyone else to tell stories. I think a great way we can honor Pat is to tell a story in his thread (also pinned at the top of the board).

It is with a heavy heart that I share a grim and dark assessment, which I have been hinting at for a significant amount of time, but have struggled to articulate, and even hesitated to talk about publicly: a terrifyingly large constituency within the Muslim, Arab, and Palestinian-American communities have become far too extreme and radical regarding the issues of Palestine, Gaza, and hatred of the United States and all things Western. Worse, support for and endorsement of Hamas have become mainstream views and can no longer be considered “fringe,” especially within the “pro-Palestine” movement.
Many Muslim and Arab-Americans and their advocacy groups have chosen to become single-issue voters and activists, making Palestine the only rallying cry to mobilize their voters, when numerous other issues and challenges face these two communities. Overt support for Islamism, as CAIR and Linda Sarsour make it clear here in this video, and the aggressive Islamization of the West, is being supercharged on the back of the suffering of the people of Gaza.
I had hoped that support for Hamas among American and European-based Arabs and Muslims would begin to scale back when the war ended, creating some space and margin for introspection, self-critique, and most importantly, recognition that Hamas and violent Jihadi terrorists are not “resistance” or “martyrs” but the fuel for the annihilation of the Palestinian people. Instead, there is a stubborn unwillingness to offer even the slightest of critique to Hamas and the whole “resistance” narrative, even as Gazans suffer horribly as the group re-establishes its grip on power and control, and the extent of Hamas’s criminality becomes apparent. Worse, many of these “pro-Palestine” personalities are moving on from Gaza entirely, drunk on the recent Mamdani victory, which they view as an extension of their activism and campaigning over the past two years.
It worries me immensely that in the near future, many of the young people involved in what has become the “pro-Palestine” cult in America and Europe will graduate to more violent stages of “activism,” all while worsening the isolation of Arab and Muslim diaspora communities from integrating into their countries of residence and new homelands. I also worry that the Democratic Party will be far too accommodating and tolerant of what are inherently intolerable beliefs, ideas, and actions, all in pursuit of voters who are mobilized by an extreme manifestation of identity politics that has been corrupted with radical academic theories, reckless rhetoric, and slogans.
There is still time to adjust course and reject these trends. However, as long as a confluence of irresponsible Muslim and Arab-American advocacy organizations remains hijacked by extremists and pursues radical audiences for fundraising purposes instead of communal growth, safety, and transformation, there is little hope of change.
Arab and Muslim-Americans are part of this great nation of ours, and many contribute immensely to our country’s success, defense, and prosperity. It is a strategic mistake to tie their fate and future to foreign conflicts, no matter how dear to them, as they adopt extremist and vile slogans and narratives, which worsen divisions and increase cross-community tension and isolation.

CANADA: THE TEST SITE FOR A GLOBAL CONTROL GRID The three-minute trailer that everyone needs to see.
The truth about UN Agenda 2030 is no longer hidden — and Canada is the proving ground.
This isn’t theory. It’s the blueprint for global technocracy in motion.“
The lust to control other human beings is as old as time.”
From the collapse of liberal democracy to the rise of centralized rule by unelected officials, the agenda is simple: Control every resource. Control every citizen. Control every choice.
Their plan: Replace money with programmable digital credits
Transform energy and dictate how you use it
Seize farmland and replace real food with “pharma food”
Re-engineer economies through “net zero” and “sustainability”Their justification: the “climate crisis.”
But the film exposes how data manipulation and fear are being used to manufacture consent for a global control system
Experts warn: “Once the digital ID is in place — it’s game over for humanity.”
And at the center of it all? Mark Carney — a man who preaches global governance, controls financial levers, and waits for his majority government to finish the job.
They call it sustainability.
But it’s really submission — economic, agricultural, digital, and human.
Canada is the model. The question is: will the rest of the world wake up before the model goes global?

My son was President of a campus conservative organization when he was an undergrad in a blue state/city. He’s in law school there now and encouraged them to have more events and reengage after pulling back the past several months. After their first event this past Friday one of his friends who is from the area has been doxed and threatened online, her mother and other family members were also threatened. My son and others who attended have also received threats.
Campus police and the local police have been notified but haven’t done anything and I suspect they won’t. I told him to get out of that shithole and transfer to a more conservative school. He said if I don’t try and engage people and change their views who will. These kids have some balls, I hope that they stay safe, I don’t think you’re able to change minds of the brainwashed. Unfortunately this is happening all over the country and most schools have little interest in supporting and protecting conservative ideas and speech.
