Still new to the Internets, former Kansas City Star columnist Yael Abouhalkah forgets Godwin's law and invokes a Nazi reference in his latest political screed as he struggles to build readership given the glut of partisan ranting line. Take a look: Kansas, the clown state: From slavery to Hitler

Why does he insist every one move to KCMO's -Killa City Urban Core?
ReplyDeleteLMAO
In Kansas we hate Yael
ReplyDeleteYael move to Kansas.
ReplyDeleteI insist that everybody move to Kansas. Take back the dynamics and correct the wrong. Kansas is far more progressive than this liberal shit hole we call Kansas City.
ReplyDeleteKansas a square ass state.
ReplyDeleteP.s. From a former Kansas resident.
it is true that kansas has a good-government, do-the-right-thing ethos that's deeply embedded.
ReplyDeletethat's why hyperbolic railing against kansas shows a failure to understand complexity.
A wise commentator once posed this question: If America divided itself into a Red and Blue nation...which side would be the first trying to escape the conservative or liberal utopia they had created? I think the contrast between Jackson and Johnson Counties provides a pretty clear answer.
ReplyDeleteYello, er, uh, dangit--Yael, apparently doesn't hate tossing tax monies to Kansas. I saw him last week in the checkout at HyVee's Mission store.
ReplyDeleteI think that most people don't have any idea of the wonderful history of Kansas, which was settled by devout abolitionists determined that Kansas would enter the Union as a Free State. People who were well established in the East moved to the frontier to make sure to populate Kansas with free state supporters, and there were dozens of skirmishes and raids with pro-slavery advocates from Missouri. Hundreds of these brave people lost their property and even their lives trying to oppose slavery. This history was certainly suppressed for about 100 years, and we learned very little of it in school. Now enough time has passed that we discuss it more often, and I think the history of our local border wars is fascinating. I admire those "Free Staters" very much.
ReplyDelete^^^ Smart comment!
ReplyDeleteTony is there something going on between Yael and you that we don't know about?
ReplyDelete"Still new to the internet"
ReplyDeleteHis columns were online before you even started his racist shithole.
And they sucked then, and they suck now. He's actually managed to be less relevant than the newspaper that fired him. That's an accomplishment!
DeleteYael has become a tedious joke. That's why The Star fired him. His writing is predictable and boring. Worse yet, he's uninformed. He wouldn't know how to get to Topeka if he had to, understands very little about who the players are or the subtle distinctions between the various factions.
