Boston Globe notices the solar eclipse will be best viewed across counties won by Trump

The last time we caught up with Boston and map-based musings – admittedly a somewhat specialized topic – the Boston public schools were endeavoring to fight the scourge of racist map projections. 

That actually adds a dollop of melancholy to the most recent eruption from Beantown, because it appears to the unaided eye that the Globe is using a racist map projection to illustrate its point about the upcoming solar eclipse. The map in the Globe’s story looks like a Lambert Conformal projection, which presumably is not as bad as a Mercator. But it fails to show that Africa is bigger than North America. Apparently they still have work to do, racist-map-projection-wise, there in the crown jewel of the Bay State. 

But the news you can really use is that the Globe’s Matt Rocheleau has taken a hard look at the projected path of the solar eclipse coming up on 21 August, and determined that it’s nearly free of counties won by Hillary Clinton in 2016. 

My personal comments on Globe article:
One can only speculate as to the motives of those Trump-hating reporters at the Boston Globe for taking time away from their Russian collusion quest to dive so deeply into this astronomical event and it's relationship to the 2016 Presidential Election.  Perhaps, just perhaps they are hopeful, that Trump voters are so ignorant they will not take adequate precautions when viewing this rare solar event.  And as a result go blind and be unable to find the polling places in the 2018 and 2020!
However, I would contend those most likely to go blind in the path of this occurrence will be those who have confirmed their stupidity in the not too distant past by voting for Hillary Clinton.    
FOR THOSE SO INCLINED, YOU CAN CALCULATE THE APPROXIMATE  WIDTH OF THE MOON'S SHADOW AS IT SWEEPS ACROSS THE UNITED STATES ON AUGUST 21. HINT:  THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN TWO CONGRUENT TRAPEZOIDS.  OR  YOU CAN JUST GOOGLE IT.

The 'Free Stuff' Trap

Free cheese, like all free stuff, 

can only be found in mouse traps 

or other similar devices invented by politicians 

to fool a unsuspecting and gullible populous.

Black Woman suffering from the scourge of 'While Male Privilege' self identifies as White Man

As far as we know, this is a first.  Seems that a black women, Kenzie Jefferson-Washington has taken full of advantage of the Golden State's progressive laws and has self-identified as a white man.  Kenzie reportedly said, "she was a victim of 'White Privilege' and wasn't going to take it anymore".  During her first job interview where she claimed to be a white male, the owner of the small business where she was seeking employment complimented Mr. Jefferson-Washington on his beautiful  tan.  Kenzie called the black owner 'racist' and stormed out.  A special thanks to Kismet  for the theme of this post!

Company is Forced to Halt Production of Popular Candy After People Claim It’s RACIST

It’s no secret that race is a touchy subject in today’s America; racial division is perhaps at the worst it’s been in years. There is seemingly no end to the things that people can claim to be racist, but one thing that would appear to be safe is candy. Everyone likes candy — but apparently, even candy can be condemned as racist to some people. 

Haribo is a candy supplier that is best known for their gummy bears. But a new candy released for sale in Sweden and Denmark caused a huge outcry, with people complaining that the treat was racist. And the backlash was so fierce, that Haribo was forced to pull the snack from the shelves. 

Called the “Skipper Mix”, the gummies included black licorice gummies in the shape of distorted faces. But people didn’t find the idea so tasty — they instead saw the gummies as “racist”, and demanded that the product be yanked. At first, Haribo defended the candy, saying that they were meant to be reminiscent of a world traveler who would bring artifacts from the places he visited back home. But that didn’t placate anyone. The outcry continued on social media. 

“Multiculturalism, colonial legacy or the slave trade?” Saam Kapadia wrote on Twitter. “[The] Haribo Skipper Mix makes me think about Denmark and my Danish heritage.” This is what the black licorice gummy faces looked like:

“We decided that we could keep the product while removing the parts that certain customers found offensive,” Ola Dagliden, head of Haribo Sweden, said. “It wasn’t something we saw as having negative connotations.” Soon, a picture of the gummies was removed from the Haribo website. And in Sweden, the black licorice faces were removed from the Skipper Mix altogether. 

Do you think the black licorice faces have a racist connotation, or are people being too sensitive?  Thanks to Right Wing News

Time to remove the Tumor from America

It’s time for John McCain to retire. The 80 year-old Arizona senator was diagnosed with a brain tumor. Any normal man would spend his remaining time with his family. Not McCain. He remains determined to do maximum damage to President Trump and the USA. 

McCain is a deep state stooge. He’s an angry poodle on the leash of George Soros. He’s a globalist who is pro-massive immigration, pro-war and pro-trannies in the military. He’s not a war hero no matter how many times that lie is repeated by the fake stream media. Getting shot down and suffering wounds does not make him a hero. “Song Bird” McCain told the North Vietnamese secret info which caused more Americans to die in Vietnam. He wet started his jet on the USS Forrestal as a prank. It started a massive fire that led to the death of 134 sailors. Tomorrow marks the 50th anniversary of that tragedy. McCain had to be helicoptered off the ship because many sailors were calling for his scalp. As a senator, the war-mongering traitor John McCain has enriched himself by wetstarting on America. 

McCain is malignant tumor. He has given America a massive headache for way too long.
