Quotations from Chairman Maher;
Katherine Maher has a golden résumé, with stints and affiliations at UNICEF, the Atlantic Council, the World Economic Forum, the State Department, Stanford University, and the Council on Foreign Relations. She was chief executive officer and executive director of the Wikimedia Foundation. And, as of last month, she is CEO of National Public Radio. […]
What you notice first about Maher’s public speech are the buzzwords and phrases: “structural privilege,” “epistemic emergency,” “transit justice,” “non-binary people,” “late-stage capitalism,” “cis white mobility privilege,” “the politics of representation,” “folx.” She supported Black Lives Matter from its earliest days. She compares driving cars with smoking cigarettes. She is very concerned about “toxic masculinity.”
On every topic, Maher adopts the fashionable language of left-wing academic theory and uses it as social currency, even when her efforts veer into self-parody. She never explains, never provides new interpretation—she just repeats the phrases, in search of affirmation and, when the time is right, a promotion.
Maher understands the game: America’s elite institutions reward loyalty to the narrative. Those who repeat the words move up; those who don’t move out.
Let her explain more clearly: “Our reverence for the truth might be a distraction that’s getting in the way of finding common ground and getting things done.”
“She compares driving cars with smoking cigarettes.”
You mean how both are unmitigated goods?
Another moron with a high paying job.
We are doomed.
Both good , but only one is good with alcohol.
They both require regular filter maintenance.
Rain drops… she’s selling rain drops…
I feel a new song coming on…
Patting your resume to say how great my ego has gotten by joining all these non education subjects of substance.
I didn’t see anything on her resume that amounts to producing something – even a glass of lemonade – that actually added to GDP.
Every organization on the list is a money pit.
Drivel for people who have no critical thinking skills.
My gawd the Coming Cull is going to be massive.
She’s the exponent of the new generation of high-level managers.
20 yrs ago these people were still very good at some numbers skill (technical and/or finance/accounting). There was still a bit of decency and facts/reality could not be ignored nor twisted.
Now it’s just snake-oil sales and buzzwords/propaganda. High-Level Management today in big corporations is about being a scumbag and a backstabber while being able to nice-talk BS.
It is a new way, talking shit wrapped in sophistry.
Truth, common sense and other such mundane facts of life are shunned by those that went to school for a long time to study how to wrap shit in sophistry.
It impresses the ruling class. If you see the nonsense from MSNBC, you may get the idea of bullshit that everyone in the room agrees with.
When morning Joe went on the tirade of bullshit a day or two ago, the others in the room looked somewhat stunned, though had to reluctantly agree with the nonsense, otherwise they may never get on the program again and possibly be banished from the circuit.
There is no more to it.
Truth is a distraction. Should be the motto of all leftwing nuts.
She’s a Bidenette, aka Luddite. Perhaps her grandfather was eaten by cannibals.
Kamala Harris 2.0
Another incompetent person getting a promotion.
Anyone that uses that language is incompetent.
I read somewhere that NPR has a ton of money mostly from grants and previous donations so she’s going to ride that horse right into the ground. And it’s going to be a slow-motion car crash. The only way to stop insanity is to cut the purse strings. But it’s too late for places like Harvard and NPR. They have so much (think Spanish 15th century) money. They will eventually rule the junkyard.
“On every topic, Maher adopts the fashionable language of left-wing academic theory and uses it as social currency,….”
.
And she lives in a modest $2,700,000 U.S. home in NYC.
If she keeps talking dirty like that, she might get Trudeau interested in a female.
This womyn was born in 1983 … the same year as my beautiful daughter who has given us two fantastic little grandsons. She must be 41 yo … or thereabouts. This womyn will likely never have children as her ovaries don’t appear very important to her. And I count that as a FANTASTIC thing as people like this should NEVER reproduce.
Now, you can meet her new husband and their “cross cultural” … something, something …

Again, I return to my daughter of the same age (who remains nearly as conservative as myself) and her own “cross-cultural” husband who is 1/2 FN Canadian. And we had our own “cross-cultural” wedding during which we had a smudging ceremony and blanket ceremony to go along with the Christian sacraments. Funny … I’ve never posted articles and photos on social media about it. I’ve never sought out accolades for it. And I’ve never been uneasy or hostile about it … despite my rather *ahem* strident Christendom. It simply represented BOTH their lives … my daughter and her wonderful husband. That’s it. Nothing more.
I really, really, don’t trust people who celebrate … themselves. Fawn over … themselves. As those type of people usually HATE your guts … for not being as “fabulous” and “informed” as themselves. Yes, they’re psychopaths who desperately need Zoom-therapy.
Kenji, she is a CULTURAL MARXIST.
“WOKE” is Marxism using the Oppressed vs Oppressor mentality and applying it to everything.
It empowers the Kens and Karens to not trust their neighbour and rat on them.
These FILTHY LIBERALS want everyone to enjoy the same miserable life that their own self loathing brings them.
On the Bright side, Without Misery, there can be no Joy.
My hope is they change their ways before the Purge starts.
She reminds me of that famous line in the movie 1941, when General Stilwell (Robert Stack) meets pilot Wild Bill Kelsoe (John Belushi). He remarks: “That is the craziest son of a bitch I have ever met. How many more like him are out there?”
And that’s Maher. Thousands of her out there, being churned out by crackpot academia and the globalist machine. Somebody actually hired her.
Yes Kate you nailed it with “Chairman Maher”. She is THE perfect articulation of modern Marxism. Good looking too, so she will easily fill stadiums with cheering masses…………… no wait…..the fat blue haired types will look with disdain upon her glorious white privilege.
Ah, I love the smell of counter revolution in the morning air.
I like butter on my popcorn
Joseph, Good looking??? I suggest you have your vision checked. At best she’s just below average, and that’s being kind!
No, she’s good looking. You’re letting your contempt for her views cloud your assessment.
As bad as NPR may be, CBC is worse.
I’m reminded of the old saying, ” If you can’t dazzle em with brilliance, baffle em with bulls#!t”!
It would seem she’s doing that in spades!
She’s a woman, she’s good looking, she’s a good public speaker, and she mouths all the correct progressive platitudes, even if no one really knows what she’s on about.
That more than qualifies her for the job.
She’s a construct of the Blob, the CIA and intelligence network in the US.
The CIA funds NPR and Wiki and installs robot-like useful idiots to censor us and promote lies.

Now for Christmas I hope the rascal in her family gives her novelty business cards that say, “Construct of the Blob”.
