Liberals in nuclear meltdown mode after 2026 ‘Color of the Year’ is announced



Liberals across the nation are in full tantrum mode after a shade of white was declared 2026’s top hue.

On December 4, Pantone LLC — which is considered the global authority on color standardization — announced “Cloud Dancer,” described as a “billowy white imbued with serenity,” as its 2026 Color of the Year.

“Similar to a blank canvas, Cloud Dancer signifies our desire for a fresh start. … An airy white hue, PANTONE 11-4201 Cloud Dancer opens up space for creativity, allowing our imagination to drift so that new insights and bold ideas can emerge and take shape,” wrote Pantone Vice President Laurie Pressman.

Pantone Executive Director Leatrice Eiseman echoed the VP’s words: “The cacophony that surrounds us has become overwhelming, making it harder to hear the voices of our inner selves. A conscious statement of simplification, Cloud Dancer enhances our focus, providing release from the distraction of external influences.”

Despite these rationales and Pressman’s statement that skin color “did not factor into” Pantone’s selection, furious liberals are accusing the company of being tone-deaf and racist.

In another social media video, two girls denounced Pantone’s Color of the Year, claiming it gives “Sydney Sweeney has good genes vibes.”

Back in July, Sweeney was lambasted for starring in an American Eagle denim commercial using the double entendre that Sydney Sweeney has good jeans/genes.

“You're not allowed to say if you have blonde hair and blue eyes that you have good genes. … She clearly does have good genes. She's beautiful,” scoffs Allie, “but if you're a white person, you can't say that.”

In another video, Feng Shui expert Katie Rogers literally set her Pantone color swatches on fire:

Another Instagram reel features influencer Charlotte Palermino, who ironically filmed her video in an off-white sweater in front of white-colored walls, whining, “It’s giving conservative.”

“It's literally just a color, okay? It's an inanimate color,” says Allie, “and the subliminal message is far more offensive than any supposed message that Pantone is communicating.”

The message these social media users are hammering is that “it's not okay to be white. … You need to be ashamed of that, that white — having white skin — symbolizes something bad, that we need to reject the color of our skin.”

“In this age of self-confidence and self-love, it's only white people who have to hate themselves or associate their skin color with the collective sins of people who lived elsewhere at a different time? No,” Allie says.

She encourages everyone, but especially Christians, to reject this social justice nonsense. “It's completely unbiblical. That is not just. Justice is impartial. Justice is individual. Justice is direct. You don't carry the sins of someone who kind of looked like you,” she says.

INEVITABLE? Why Caitlin Clark finally bent the knee to the left



Caitlin Clark had become a conservative icon for what seemed to be a refusal to bend the knee to left-wing activism, but as the rule often goes, all good things must come to an end.

In a recent interview with Time magazine, Clark made clear where her allegiance lies when she told the reporter, “I want to say I’ve earned every single thing, but as a white person, there is privilege. A lot of those players in the league that have been really good have been black players.”

“This league kind of has been built on them. The more we appreciate that, highlight that, talk about that, and then continue to have brands and companies invest in those players that have made the league incredible, I think it’s very important,” she concluded.

Steve Deace of the "Steve Deace Show” believes capitulating to the woke mob was always in her cards after joining the WNBA.


“Caitlyn Clark is groveling to a league that she is bigger than, she does not need. She is her own brand. She could go play internationally where a lot of the woke silliness that we have here largely does not exist,” Deace explains.

“She could just barnstorm the country with Caitlyn Clark’s Globetrotters and make every bit as much money, if not more, than what she’s making right now,” he continues. “The reason why I didn’t want her to go to the league is this was always bound to happen. She was never going to hold out, and it was frankly unfair to ask her to because it would be in denial of human nature.”

Deace also believes that because Clark is a woman, she’s “in a uniquely challenging position.”

“Men are relational creatures as well, but women are pre-eminently relational creatures, and asking a woman, just as a general rule, to be an iconoclast, goes against the natural order of things,” he explains.

“I would like to say, therefore, what position she finds herself in is uniquely challenging for her being asked to go up against an entire league, an entire peer group,” he continues. “Caitlin Clark will literally commit lesbian lascivious acts as part of the halftime entertainment and marry a woman within the next year or she might as well name herself Donald Trump.”

“Every time you turn onto Tolerance Boulevard it will always be a one-way street,” he adds.

Meet the educator teaching 'boys to be men' who woke leftists accuse of teaching 'whiteness'



Young men in America are increasingly desperate for positive role models as immoral celebrities and athletes so often take center stage.

King Randall is a young man who realized that needed to change and took action by founding the Life Preparatory School for Boys based in Georgia when he was just 19 years old.

Recently, Randall released a video showing these young men the proper etiquette for eating dinner, which included which utensils to use. Now, he’s being accused by the woke mob of teaching boys how to be white.

“He was accused of teaching the young boys how to be white rather than how to eat properly at dinner,” Jason Whitlock scoffs.

And he doesn’t just teach kids how to eat properly.

“We’ve been teaching kids how to work on cars, work on houses such as changing oil, changing brakes, reading — because that’s a big issue where we live,” Randall tells Whitlock.

“We have some of the lowest test scores and reading scores in our state, and that’s a huge issue for us. So, that’s why I started my own school,” Randall adds.

While many graduates of the school have become impressive success stories, keeping the school open has been an uphill battle for Randall.

“We’ve been battling you know, people as well as our city government trying to keep our school open, but you know, we’re still making it happen,” he explains.

WOKE mob RUINS woman’s life after video goes VIRAL



Sarah Jane Comrie, a New York City woman, is now the latest victim of the online mob.

Comrie is fighting claims that she’s a racist after a video of her refusing to give up her Citi Bike to a group of young black men went viral.

Comrie is pictured crying in the video and screaming “help.”

Activists took to Twitter to slam the woman, including Attorney Ben Crump.

He wrote, “A white woman was caught on camera attempting to STEAL a Citi Bike from a young Black man in NYC. She grossly tried to weaponize her tears to paint this man as a threat. This is EXACTLY the type of behavior that has endangered so many Black men in the past!”

It was later proven through receipts that the woman in question had paid for the Citi Bike, and the young black men were trying to take it from her.

Despite the woman being in the right, she was doxed online — and is six-months pregnant.

Sara Gonzales of "The News & Why It Matters" threw in her two cents.

“Yes, I’m sure that six-month pregnant woman is such a danger to that group of black men. I’m sure she stood a chance should any sort of fight break out,” Gonzales mocked.

Not only was the woman forced to leave her home because strangers were attempting to come after her and her husband, but her employer put her on leave after viewing the video.

She is now suing for defamation.

Eric July joined Gonzales to discuss the matter.

July says people online have been “race-baiting, calling her this and this and that just because she had a conflict with someone that is a different color than her. And this is why the race conversation in this country continues to escalate.”

Stanford law dean apologized to Fifth Circuit judge shouted down by radicals on campus. The woke mob won't let such civility go unpunished.



Good manners and free speech are evidently no longer given any quarter on Stanford University campus.

The dean of Stanford's law school has been targeted for abuse by leftists on campus in response to her decision to apologize to a conservative judge whom censorious students tried to shut up.

What is the background?

An esteemed Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals judge was invited to speak to the Federalist Society at Stanford university last week about the dialogue between the Supreme Court and the Fifth Circuit concerning authoritarian COVID-19 restrictions and gun laws.
TheBlaze previously reported that rather than risk exposure to Judge Kyle Duncan's real-world insights, a mob of students shouted him down.

"You've invited me here and I'm being heckled nonstop," says the Trump-appointed judge in a video captured during the event.

Although there was at least one other adult in the room, Tirien Steinbach — a diversity, equity, and inclusion associate dean — she did little to help the situation.
Similarly allergic to differing worldviews, Steinbach launched into an unhinged six-minute rant denouncing Duncan, regurgitating remarks she had circulated to students prior to the event.

"In my view, this was a setup, [Tirien Steinbach] was working with students on this," Duncan later told Reuters.

Duncan later demanded an apology, noting that the anti-free-speech protesters had treated their peers like "dogs**t."

He later told the Washington Free Beacon, "If enough of these kids get into the legal profession, the rule of law will descend into barbarism."

Mea culpa

Following the incident, Stanford President Marc Tessier-Lavigne and Stanford Law School Dean Jenny Martinez penned an apology to Duncan, noting, "What happened was inconsistent with our policies on free speech, and we are very sorry about the experience you had while visiting our campus."

"We are very clear with our students that, given our commitment to free expression, if there are speakers they disagree with, they are welcome to exercise their right to protest but not to disrupt the proceedings," said the letter. "Staff members who should have enforced university policies failed to do so, and instead intervened in inappropriate ways that are not aligned with the university's commitment to free speech."

The president and dean claimed they were "taking steps to ensure that something like this does not happen again."

Duncan said in a statement obtained by National Review that he appreciated the apology and was "pleased to accept it."

"I particularly appreciate the apology’s important acknowledgment that 'staff members who should have enforced university policies failed to do so, and instead intervened in inappropriate ways that are not aligned with the university’s commitment to free speech,'" wrote Duncan. "Particularly given the depth of the invective directed towards me by the protestors, the administrators’ behavior was completely at odds with the law school’s mission of training future members of the bench and bar."

Extra to suggesting that the members of Stanford's Federalist Society were most deserving of an apology, Duncan wrote, "Given the disturbing nature of what happened, clearly concrete and comprehensive steps are necessary. I look forward to learning what measures Stanford plans to take to restore a culture of intellectual freedom."

Anti-free-speech activists strike again

The apology enraged leftists on campus.

The Washington Free Beacon reported that hundreds of anti-free-speech activists crowded the hallways of the university Monday, protesting Martinez and her apology.

Martinez found that activists had plastered the whiteboard inside the classroom where she teaches constitutional law with placards denouncing Duncan along with copies of her apology.

One flier said, "We, the students in your constitutional law class, are sorry for exercising our 1st Amendment rights."

Another flier, which was mass-produced, advanced the Orwellian claim that "'COUNTER-SPEECH' IS FREE SPEECH."

This claim — that censorship constitutes free speech — was reportedly scrawled across the masks of the anti-speech extremists haunting Martinez's classroom, dressed all in black.

Martinez's faceless critics were joined by the majority of her pupils. Nearly 50 out of the 60 students enrolled in the first-year class got involved in the anti-free-speech protest, reported the Free Beacon.

Those who refused to participate were stigmatized.

"They gave us weird looks if we didn’t wear black," first-year law student Luke Schumacher told the Free Beacon. "It didn’t feel like the inclusive, belonging atmosphere that the DEI office claims to be creating."

Students writing on behalf of the Stanford chapter of the American Constitution Society condemned the apology, telling Marinez that Duncan was not a victim, but had "himself made civil dialogue impossible."

The juvenile chapter of the ACS further implored the administration to "clarify that Judge Duncan's behavior does not meet the standards this university expects of invited speakers," suggesting that he had "walked into the law school filming protestors on his phone, looking more like a YouTuber storming the Capitol, than a federal judge coming to speak."

According to Schumacher, when Martinez left the building, the anti-free-speech activists began to cheer and weep.

Ben Stiller refuses to bend the knee to the woke mob, declares he will make no apologies for 'Tropic Thunder'



Actor Ben Stiller made it clear that he will not bend the knee to the woke outrage mob regarding the controversy surrounding the 2008 movie "Tropic Thunder."

Earlier this week, a Twitter user implored Stiller to stop apologizing for the controversy swirling around blackface-wearing and the mentally challenged farm boy characters in "Tropic Thunder." The fan told Stiller that "liberals" are trying to cancel "Tropic Thunder," but he proclaimed that the movie is "even funnier now with cancel culture the way it is."

Stiller replied on Twitter, "I make no apologies for 'Tropic Thunder.' Don’t know who told you that. It’s always been a controversial movie since when we opened. Proud of it and the work everyone did on it."

In 2018, Stiller admitted that he apologized for his mentally challenged character "Simple Jack," but also said he stood by the premise of the character and "Tropic Thunder." Stiller made the comments while defending Olympic Gold medalist Shaun White, who wore a Simple Jack costume for Halloween.

"Actually 'Tropic Thunder' was boycotted 10 years ago when it came out, and I apologized then," Stiller tweeted. "It was always meant to make fun of actors trying to do anything to win awards. I stand by my apology, the movie, Shaun White, And the great people and work of the Special Olympics."

In 2020, Stiller admitted that "Tropic Thunder" probably couldn't be made in the climate of political correctness.

"Honestly, I don't know if it's the politics as much as just the atmosphere of the political correctness now and everybody being afraid to say something that's offensive," Stiller said.

"But at the time — that's the thing to me that's so complicated about how we approach what's appropriate and what's not in terms of the timeframe that it was made," the Hollywood actor continued. "It doesn't necessarily mean that anything was more appropriate at another time, but you have to look at the context and realize that that's what was happening."

Fellow actor Robert Downey Jr. has also refused to apologize for "Tropic Thunder."

Downey played pretentious Australian method actor Kirk Lazarus, who undergoes "pigmentation alteration" surgery to temporarily darken his skin for his portrayal of Staff Sergeant Lincoln Osiris — who is black.

"I think that it’s never an excuse to do something that’s out of place and out of its time, but to me, it blasted the cap on [the issue]. I think having a moral psychology is job one. Sometimes, you just gotta go, 'Yeah I effed up.' In my defense, 'Tropic Thunder' is about how wrong [blackface] is, so I take exception," Downey said during a 2020 interview on "The Joe Rogan Experience" podcast.

Downey said the controversial acting roles were meant to "hold up to nature the insane self-hypocrisy of artists and what they think they’re allowed to do on occasion."

Speaking of "Tropic Thunder," Downey added, "It was impossible to not have it be an offensive nightmare of a movie."

In 2020, Stiller batted away woke backlash and defended the cameo of Donald Trump in the movie "Zoolander."

When Media Tried To Turn Netflix’s ‘Wednesday’ Into A Racism Controversy, Its Producer Shut Them Down

Anyone who actually watched 'Wednesday' can see that the 'racism' accusations are ridiculous and performative.

Creator of 'Dahmer' series unloads on Netflix for caving to outrage, removing 'LGBTQ' tag: 'I didn't like it'



Ryan Murphy, the Hollywood director who co-created the recent series on serial killer Jeffrey Dahmer, recently condemned Netflix for bowing to woke critics.

What is the background?

In late September, Netflix removed its "LGBTQ" tag from "Dahmer – Monster: The Jeffrey Dahmer Story," the dramatized biographical film of the infamous serial killer.

The streaming platform presumably attached the "LGBTQ" tag to the show because Dahmer was a gay man who primarily preyed upon other gay men, as well as racial minorities and underage boys.

What did Murphy say?

Speaking in an extensive interview with the New York Times, Murphy criticized Netflix for removing the LGBTQ tag from his show.

In fact, Murphy claimed that Netflix officials told him specifically that they removed the tag because of the backlash they had received for attaching it in the first place.

"The rule of my career has been: The more specific you are, the more universal you can become," he told the Times.

"I also don’t think that all gay stories have to be happy stories," he explained. "There was a moment on Netflix where they removed the LGBTQ tag from ‘Dahmer,’ and I didn’t like it and I asked why they did that, and they said because people were upset because it was an upsetting story. I was, like, ‘Well, yeah.’

"But it was a story of a gay man and, more importantly, his gay victims," Murphy said.

Moreover, Murphy said he believes the way that he told Dahmer's story highlighted how white privilege allowed Dahmer to get away with victimizing gay people and racial minorities.

From the Times:

Mr. Murphy said he did the story to shed light on the racism and homophobia that pervaded the case, at the victims’ expense, and because “it was the biggest thing I’ve ever seen that really sort of examines how easy it is to get away with things with the white privilege aspects.”

Anything else?

"Dahmer" is the second-most popular English show ever on Netflix. Only "Stranger Things 4" received more viewers in its initial release.
