Another idiot whining about video games. Doesn’t understand that the purpose of video games is the “circuses” part of bread-and-circuses. Or maybe he does and thinks that his gig will somehow be ruined because some people want to be treated fairly as opposed to being forked over.Marty O’Donnell, composer of the scores for the popular video games series Halo and Destiny and an outspoken opponent of “wokeness” in gaming, is running for Congress in Nevada’s 3rd congressional district for the second time.
O’Donnell, 70, previously ran in the same district last year but finished fourth in the Republican Party primary, having campaigned on a platform of family values and border security. He will be hoping to improve on that at next year’s midterms.
Discussing his second bid for Washington in a guest post on the DEIDetected blog Tuesday, a site dedicated to opposing political correctnessin video games, the musician said he believes politics and entertainment are intimately connected and that DEI initiatives have spoiled too many games, an issue Donald Trump and Pete Hegseth have taken on at the federal level.
“I believe the enthusiasm for the re-release of the original Halo is in large part due to the woke-ification of the gaming industry,” he wrote. “After years of gamers fighting the infiltration of DEI in the industry, we are finally winning.”
O’Donnell continued: “I saw firsthand the beginning of DEI in the industry. Instead of hiring people who played video games, corporations began requiring ‘diversity’ at the expense of game quality.………
“The downfall of DEI in gaming feels very similar to the 2024 elections. At the same time that gamers fought and took back the gaming industry from woke leftists, voters fought and took back our country from woke leftists.”……

............On the latest episode of the '4th and Favre' podcast, Favre similarly criticized the NFL for not choosing a halftime performer who "loves this country." In his eyes, the league should've gone with someone like Jason Aldean or George Strait. It comes after Danica Patrick also slammed the announcement.
"I'd pick someone who - maybe Jason Aldean, or, you know, someone who loves this country and that everyone could relate to," Favre explained "I think Jason Aldean right now is as big a patriot and has a great voice.
"I threw George Strait out, and he may be like, 'I ain't doing that.' I don't know. But the guy has, I don't know how many Number 1s he's had, but good lord. It's enormous. And I don't think he's ever done it, but that would be a pretty cool act to watch."
According to Favre, a strong Super Bowl performance "really grabs" the audience - as was the case when Whitney Houston belted an emotional rendition of 'The Star-Spangled Banner' prior to Super Bowl XXV in January 1991.
"I remember when Whitney Houston sang the national anthem and I was blown away," Favre recalled. "If you didn't have tears in your eyes watching and listening to that, something's wrong with you. I envision a national anthem and a halftime show, they're two different things but, it really grabs you.".............

If you think this is bad you should see what the far left Antifa groups are up to
===============
In the underworld of accelerationist neo-Nazis, where talk of attacks against western governments are commonplace, the spread of illegal weapons manuals and tradecraft on drone warfare are proliferating. Experts say, in some cases, that classes are being taught online with the input of leadership from proscribed terrorist groups with links to Russian intelligence.
Authorities have been warning, on both sides of the Atlantic, about the accessibility of drone technologies and military veterans on the far right with the knowhow to use them, presenting a grave national security threat.
“Offering military-style training materials, including drone tradecraft, to the extreme right indicates that this is for prepping purposes,” said Joshua Fisher-Birch, a terrorism analyst with close to a decade of experience tracking militant movements. “[To] improve the capacity of extremist networks to commit violence, or to encourage acts of violence specifically.”
Fisher-Birch says a well-connected and dangerous network called the Observations Group has emerged with a following among internationalist neo-Nazis and bills itself as a “paramilitary project to prepare people for modern warfare”.
Part of its operations, so far, is promoting militant course materials through its closed chat groups.
On its open Telegram channel, however, the group is already bragging about its online “military course” which it says covers “basic command training, and for those with no military experience, the course will cover the basics of preparing a soldier”, and can be purchased using a cryptocurrency wallet it uses for fundraising.
Observations Group continues: “You will receive the latest information on drones [...] Nato and [war] doctrines, techniques for engaging in war on both sides of the Russian-Ukrainian conflict [...] the integration of modern communications technologies and military concepts of future armies.”……….
Evidence has already emerged that military-trained neo-Nazis in the US, with relevant drone skillsets, have begun advising others within the movement. A writer and alleged former marine has a popular Substack among extremists and claims to be a former member of the now-defunct Atomwaffen Division – another hyper-violent, proscribed terrorist group aligned with the Base and connected to murders in the US.
“I am a drone operator, one of the first in the infantry,” wrote the anonymous writer. “The future is cheap, 3D-printed drones with a [high-explosive] round zip tied to it.”
Webber believes accelerationists on the far right, who view acts of terrorism as a means of setting off a domino effect taking down world governments, are already implementing drones into potential operations.……

The centre-left could lose control of Copenhagen for the first time in the city’s electoral history as residents of the Danish capital go to the polls amid growing disillusionment with the divisive politics of the prime minister, Mette Frederiksen.
Frederiksen’s Social Democrats have ruled the city for more than 100 years - producing every lord mayor that the municipality has had since the current system was introduced in 1938.
But on Tuesday, as Denmark votes in municipal and regional elections, polls suggest the most probable result is a loss for the party’s candidate, a former government minister understood to have been handpicked by the PM.
Among the reasons cited by analysts are fatigue and frustration with Frederiksen’s hardline policies on issues such as integration and immigration, which have partly inspired a new asylum and migration policy unveiled by the British government……..
