In 1992, I asked William F. Buckley if he didn’t think his plan to tattoo HIV+ individuals on the forearm and the buttocks was reminiscent of Nazi Germany. He doubled down on it. This IS the conservative movement. xitter.cf/bariweiss/status/96678…
I know I should be over it, but the speed at which the organized conservative movement became the ideological home of Marion Le Pen, Seb Gorka, Nigel Farage, Dinesh D'Souza and their ilk remains shocking to me.

Mao Zedong était un dictateur sanguinaire. La propagande chinoise ne changera pas ce fait connu du monde entier.

Free people: NEVER let the rot of leadership cults take hold. They're an ancient and dangerous human addiction. Any time a leader tells you they're great, give them a wedgie. If one of their supporters says you must say their leader is great, mock them mercilessly.
小时候,大概是1968年,记得每到吃饭,就要全家对着主席像认罪,背颂毛主席语录,跳忠字舞唱“东方红”,大海航行靠舵手之类的歌。 我们家住的院子里的三户人家,有一家是学习毛泽东思想小组组长,领导我们三家一起学习、唱红歌啥的反正都得听他们家的。 一天,我饿得想哭,妈妈已经把饭做好了,是玉米棒子加很少的玉米面混在一起的那种吃完了拉不出来屎的饭。但却不能吃。 因为要等着学习小组长喊了才能去他家一起向毛主席认了罪,赞美之后才能吃饭。 好不容易等到喊我们进小组长的家,结果背颂毛主席语录的时候,我眼睛一直在偷看组长饭卓上那条香喷喷的大鲤鱼直流口水。 结果背错了毛主席语录,小组长就瞪着眼睛大声喝斥我和我爸妈。罚我们一家子背3 0遍这段毛主席语录。 我又饿又气,突然大声骂了一句,“操你妈毛主席”。结果当时就被小组长一脚踹飞。 谁知道这一下捅了天大的窟窿,父亲被带去生产队被关了一夜,挨打了一夜。 第二天,父亲胸前被挂着大牌子,上面写着“现形反革命”,父亲手里还拎着个破锣,背着学校那种板凳,走街串巷。 一到有人的地方就停下来站在板凳上一敲锣一边大声的说:我有罪,我没有教育好孩子,我思想反动,我对不起毛主席他老人家,我罪该万死…. 围观的大人小孩子还尾随着父亲一路扔石头,吐口水。 我和妈妈、姐姐、妹妹远远的跟着,一路低声哭泣,天昏地暗。 我的幼小心灵经过这一次打击,被伤得万劫不复….. 注:我本来写了一部纪实文学:书名叫《打记事儿起》,有30万字。 但在逃离中国时被迫将稿子删了。为了能顺利逃出来。现在在难民营条件不允许,等以后我会重写这本具有文学价值和记录人生的书。

The idea that calling Mao a dictator could be in any way seen as controversial is insane and says a lot about how society as a whole has drifted into lunacy.

Imagine that. Harvard is reinventing a great books college. And the students do really want to put down the phones and pick the classics up. “A lot of what we get out of this class is the human experience, and you can’t get that out of AI,” said Peggy Urdan, a government and neuroscience major from Lexington, Mass. “The only way to get anything out of this class is to not use AI.” wsj.com/lifestyle/harvard-cl…

“ICT urges governments to move beyond expressions of concern and press China to release all Tibetans arbitrarily detained for exercising their fundamental rights, account for those who have been disappeared, investigate allegations of torture, and grant independent UN experts meaningful access to Tibet.” – Tencho Gyatso, ICT President The story of Gonpo Tsering and the countless other detained Tibetans is a stark reminder: #religiousfreedom does not exist in CCP-occupied Tibet. We must recognize that while we celebrate International #ReligiousFreedomDay, the CCP continues to challenge and deny the #humanrights and freedoms of the #Tibetan people.

I'm fed up with idiots claiming that men can breastfeed. Men cannot produce enough liquid to sustain a baby, even after taking a cocktail of drugs, so why even try? We know it's purely a sexual fetish with them. They are prepared to exploit an innocent baby for a sexual thrill, while women who breastfeed are very careful about what medications they take.
I'm just in case you're in any doubt, this is the anatomy lesson you missed at medical school.

Now we see a even more zoomed in picture of Sandra's neck. "The abrasions are consistant with fingernail marks. When someone is being stragled you pull at the area." This is heartbreaking.

Honestly, Mbappé had absolutely nothing to apologize for. Mao Zedong was a dictator. That's history, not an insult.

I genuinely don’t understand why there is zero attention regarding what Islamists are doing across the continent of Africa. How many more people need to be slaughtered before people speak up? xitter.cf/Haji_03130/status/2114…

convincing a girl who is in the 10th percentile of height for adult women that her only chance to live a happy or productive life is if she can convince everyone around her that she is a man is so unbelievably cruel

Wild.
“It’s not that liberals are more tolerant than conservatives, or vice versa. Liberal and conservative men are more or less equally tolerant, as are liberal and conservative women. It’s being a man, liberal or conservative, that makes the difference.”

There are three ways to take a country: by army, by purchase, or by lending it money it can’t pay back. China skipped the first. And that’s exactly what it’s doing in South Asia right now.
