MUSLIMS WILL BE ABLE TO KILL GAYS IN THE WEST SOON. THEY HAVE HIGHER RANKING ON INTERSECTIONALITY CHARTS. Leftist utopia? UK city brouhaha erupts when Muslim parents protest schools’ LGBT-friendly curriculum (Video screenshot)This is where social engineering gets you. bizpacreview.com The left’s beloved “ intersectionality” doesn’t always work out as expected, especially when different groups within so-called “intersectional” communities don’t see eye-to-eye on issues. For instance, what would happen if the wishes of one “intersectional” group differed with those of another “intersectional” group? No need to wonder, folks, because this exact scenario has been playing out in Birmingham, the second-most populous city in the United Kingdom. “Primary school parents have been protesting over their children being taught about LGBT rights and homophobia,” the BBC reported late last month. “Some parents at Parkfield Community School in Birmingham claim the teachings contradict the Islamic faith.” Uh oh … Below is some eye-opening footage from one of the protests: “Sorry at this age it’s totally wrong. Children at this age don’t even know if they are coming or going, let alone knowing what sexual orientation they will become,” one mother said to the BBC. “It’s good to teach children about respect and values but the sexual orientation aspect is against our principles,” two other parents, Asma and Mohammed Jdaitawi, added. These statements sound perfectly sound. But now just imagine hearing the white Christian parents of a white Christian child saying the same thing to the media. Every single mainstream media outlet across the world would blast the parents as bigots and homophobes. Yet in the case of the Muslim parents in Birmingham, there’s been no such reaction. Why? Because Muslims are fairly high on the “intersectional” hierarchy, as noted by social media: Muslims are higher on the intersectional scale, gays and women will just have to resign themselves to that fact. — David Ross (@djross95) February 7, 2019 Checking my intersectionality ranking chart... Ya know, just to see who is right. — Robert Craft (@robertjcraft) February 7, 2019 Muslims are higher on the intersectional scale, gays and women will just have to resign themselves to that fact. — David Ross (@djross95) February 7, 2019 Checking my intersectionality ranking chart… Ya know, just to see who is right. — Robert Craft (@robertjcraft) February 7, 2019 But what is “intersectionality?” It’s a racist left-wing ideology that attempts to classify people into a hierarchy based on their race, their religion, their gender, their sexuality, etc. According to this twisted ideology, white people are at the bottom of the hierarchy because they allegedly were always the “oppressors” in history. As such, their viewpoints and demands don’t matter. This is why the radical left sees nothing wrong with forcing whites to move to the back of a room, holding no-whites-allowed events or demanding whites shut up and be quiet. It’s also why the left always rushes to demonize whites and white Christians as bigots, homophobes, racists, white supremacists, Nazis, etc., whenever they voice opinions and/or political positions that belie the ideological stance of the Democrat Party. But what happens when people who hold higher positions on the “intersectional” hierarchy — minorities, gays, women, Muslims, etc. — go head to head versus teaming up against whites? It’s an “intersectional paradox,” according to Christina Hoff Sommers: The latter user nailed it. Either the left will decide to label one “intersectional” group superior to another, or the groups that disagree will begin fighting among themselves. In the case of the Muslim parents, the left appears to have decided that their religious concerns are more important than the gay community’s desire to teach kids about LGBT rights/homophobia. But that doesn’t always happen. Note for instance the battle between feminists and “transgender women.” Some feminists claim that men who pretend to be women are hurting women’s rights, and they’re not wrong. Consider for instance the case of men in dresses being allowed to use women’s restrooms. Just to be clear, so-called “transgender women” are winning that battle because they apparently outrank women. In the case of the Muslim parents, however, it appears they outrank the gay community.

ANOTHER AOC LEVEL BRAINED DEMOCRAT... WILL SHE SWITCH PARTIES WHEN SHE HEARS WHAT AOC AND KAMALA WANT HER TAXES TO BE. Rapper Cardi B Rails Against IRS, High Taxes “On top of that, being an artist, looking good for y’all, doing all this extra s* to please y’all, that s* costs money,” she said. By NTK Staff\|02.07.2019 @3:38pmRapper Cardi B posted a video on social media this week criticizing the amount of money the government takes from each of her paychecks in a rant just in time for tax season. The New York rapper begins her video by complaining about individuals, particularly online commenters, who criticize how she spends her money. “You know what I hate? I hate when celebrities do something very extravagant, buy something very luxurious, those people in the comments are like, ‘You could have donated that, or we’re going backwards, you could have done this and that with your money,’” she said. “And it’s like, who are you to tell people what to do with their hard-working ass money?” Cardi B continued. “First of all, do you know that artists, celebrities, the IRS, out of every check that you make, they automatically take 45 percent of your check? That means in order to spend $500,000, you got to make at least a million.” According to the Tax Foundation, the highest federal tax bracket is 37 percent. Cardi B was born and raised in the Bronx, New York, and if that remains her primary residence, she could easily be tacking on another 8.8 percent from the state and 3.6 percent from the city. “Artists like me and a lot of rappers that I know, they literally take care of their whole family,” she said. “And that’s not tax [deductible] because the IRS don’t consider that a business.” Cardi B also elaborated on her spending habits, which she said are sometimes as much as $300,000 each month. “On top of that, being an artist, looking good for y’all, doing all this extra shit to please y’all, that shit costs money,” she said. “Like me for example, my bills, it’s like I’ll say about $300,000 [or] $250,000 every single month.” This is not the first time Cardi B has opened up about her issues with the U.S. tax system. In March 2018, she posted a similar rant on Instagram: ntknetwork.com
