Sex in Advertising
For all you connoisseurs of advertising...
I may not be exactly sure what they're selling, but, I'm pretty sure I'm in the market!

Masked Thugs of the Radical Left
I posted this little snippet up on You Tube, because the still shots I took just didn't convey the violent, mindless rage that 'skateboard boy' exhibits here.
On the right hand side of your screen, you see a thug in a white mask 'cold cock' a guy just standing there, apparently minding his own business, knocking him to the ground, then the thug backs away. Shortly after that, in the same area, you see a guy in a hoodie carrying a skateboard, who gets in the face of someone trying to help this guy who was just knocked down, then he moves over and raises his board above his head and starts whaling on people multiple times. Also note the guy in the helmet who comes up along side him. I've seen him before. He was the thug who stole a bottle of water from a disabled vet in a wheelchair and squirted him with it. Nice guys.
IMHO, skateboard boy is carrying the board as a weapon, with plausible deniability. "Who, me, officer? No, I was just riding this here skateboard!" Or like Trayvon Martin's screwdriver. "Burglary tool? No man, I just need it in case I need to fix some stuff, that's all!" Still, I can count the number of people I see out skateboarding in the summertime in their masks and hoodies, and carrying long screwdrivers to school in their backpacks on one hand and have five digits left over.
Antifa is all about deniability. They wear the masks and hoodies and helmets so they can't be recognized and held responsible. They carry skateboards and bicycle locks and soda cans filled with hardened cement, so they don't look explicitly like weapons, but what else would you use an aluminum can filled with cement for?
And who takes the time to do such a thing before attending a political rally? That's called "premeditation".
Antifa are cowards who strike without provocation. They preach the doctrine of "preemptive self defense", declare it's "okay to punch a Nazi" and then categorize anyone who disagrees with them as a "Nazi" or "White supremacist".
In actuality, they are anarchists, bringing chaos and confusion in their wake. This is intention. They are intent on breaking down society, Balkanizing as many groups as possible, bringing about the destruction of our government as we know it, to be replaced with a more socialist or communist ruling class, to rule with an iron fist, of course!
They cover the iron fist with platitudes about being "anti-fascist", but their actions are more in line with fascism than any group they are opposing. In attempting to hijack the mantle of "ant-fascists", even comparing themselves favorably to those brave men who stormed the beaches on D-Day, they convince few outside the far left. Poking a police horse with a stick with nails in it does not make you a hero. Tossing bottles of urine and feces on innocent bystanders does not make you a champion of the people. Beating up grandmothers for holding an American flag does not make you an "anti-fascist", it makes you a cowardly thug.
Even Democrats are starting to back away from these violent radicals. Better late than never.

Game of Thrones -Libertarian Edition
I agree with a lot of what libertarians believe. IMHO some of them skate a little too close to anarchy, but the video is rather clever.

A Tale of Two Presidents
One president was portrayed as a clown, in a less than flattering method, enduring a simulated act of violence.
This was considered "artistic".
The other was portrayed in a not particularly unflattering way, by a rodeo clown in a rubber mask.
This was considered extremely disrespectful and the man was fired.
Guess the president?

The Sons of Liberty
Walt Disney's Johnny Tremain, "The Sons of Liberty" (1957)
Not sure why, but this song popped into my head a couple days ago, even though I haven't heard it in over fifty years. Funny thing about memory...even though the audio was pretty much as I remembered it, after viewing the video several times, I couldn't remember even a single frame of the video. Nothing looked familiar. I noticed the bad lip syncing of what sounded like a studio recording. I saw what looked like a Hollywood set instead of a real town. I noticed the close up of the girl, well lit and soft focused that screamed "love interest". I saw closeups of character actors who would likely play a prominent part in the upcoming show...things I probably wouldn't have noticed when I was seven, but not a single frame of the video was even vaguely familiar. Go figure.

The Next Life Saving Drug May Be Your Own
This ad is predictably warm and fuzzy, yet it speaks to a greater point. I often hear people talk about the incredible markup of the ingredients of a drug and rail against so called price gouging by the pharmaceutical industry, without ever considering the millions of dollars of costs and years of research and testing that go into bringing the simplest of drugs to market.
Full disclosure: I am not invested in this company, nor have I been compensated, other than the fact that I am grateful that some drug companies took a risk of time and money to produce drugs that improve my quality of life and very possibly keep me alive.
