Actually, it was the opposite. The British put a stop to Indian practices such as Sati (widow burning) and killing of female infants, which was widespread when they arrived.

Help me out here…. When the media reported that Amazon CEO, Jeff Bezos, was having an affair, how come his company wasn’t stolen from him? 🤔

“We are dealing with conditions that are barely suitable to sustain human life.” In Gaza right now, families are facing their fourth winter living in tents, many now damaged beyond repair by flooding. Children are freezing overnight because they do not have a dry place to sleep.

Holy F-ing shit. You simply have to listen to this. THIS is an absolute bombshell! This is EXACTLY the world we live in today. She nailed it. Hannah Arend: They Don't Need You to Believe (1967)

This video is AI-generated fictional dramatization, not a real 1967 recording or direct quote from Hannah Arendt. Its creator describes the script as "inspired by" her book but "a dramatized synthesis in her voice — not a direct quotation" and "fictional, AI-generated." youtube.com/watch?v=WQmpLq…

LATEST: Police have issued a dispersal order across parts of Southend today amid fears of violence between rival football supporters, as thousands visit the city for Christmas celebrations. Essex Police say intelligence suggests potential disorder involving young supporters of Southend United and Aldershot Town, ahead of their 3pm clash at Roots Hall. A group of young Aldershot supporters have reportedly arrived at The Last Post pub in Southend High Street, accompanied by a significant police escort to prevent trouble. The warning comes as Southend hosts its Christmas lights switch-on celebrations, including the High Street festivities, Southend Pier’s new lighting switch-on at 5pm, the main Christmas lights switch-on at 6pm and seafront fireworks at 7.30pm. The dispersal order has been in force since 9am, allowing officers to order people to leave designated areas. Anyone refusing could face arrest. Police say their priority is keeping families, visitors and businesses safe. No disorder has been confirmed, with the measures intended to prevent trouble before it starts.

Your hubby got blow jobs in the “People’s House.” And, in particular, the Oval Office. Ask me how I know?😎 You, in particular, should grasp full well that hosting state events, in tents, on the South Lawn with porta-potties is stupid. In fact, I remember you bitching about it. His “gilded ballroom” is America’s. It’s brilliant. He probably won’t even get to use it. Love ya, Buzz
It says everything about Donald Trump that his gilded ballroom dwarfs the size of the People's House—and it says everything about the American people that they repudiated him loudly and clearly last Tuesday.

To all the women caping for the right of men like this to enter women’s single-sex spaces, please explain why you care more about keeping him happy than you do about the women he’s threatening to punch. Extra points for explaining how your position is ‘real feminism.’
This is why trans identified males should never legally be allowed in women's spaces. They present a real, physical threat to girls & women. They think they have the right to hurt any woman who tells them "no." That makes them dangerous to us. Trans is not an excuse for violence.

I’ll never forgive the media for downplaying the carnage. People still don’t even know.
🚨 NEVER FORGET THE BATACLAN ISLAMIC MASSACRE IN FRANCE – THE HORROR THEY BURIED 10 YEARS AGO TODAY – NOV 13, 2015 130 SLAUGHTERED. 683 MAIMED. “In the name of Allah.” But the media hid the worst. Here’s what French forensic reports & sealed testimonies revealed – details the public was NEVER told: 🔴 VICTIMS CASTRATED – Testicles shoved down throats while still alive. 🔴 EYES GOUGED OUT with fingers & gun barrels – sockets left empty & bleeding. 🔴 PREGNANT WOMEN STABBED IN THE WOMB – one baby ripped out & left on the floor. 🔴 HEADS PARTIALLY DECAPITATED – necks sawed with shrapnel & broken bottles. 🔴 WOMEN RAP*D POST-MORTEM – bodies defiled in pools of blood. 🔴 BATACLAN 2ND FLOOR: Police found bodies stacked like firewood, intestines hanging from chandeliers, limbs twisted in death poses – NOT from bullets. FROM KNIVES & HANDS. These were not quick kills, but a chaotic slaughterhouse where bodies were "stacked like firewood" amid screams. ONE SURVIVOR (SEALED TESTIMONY): They laughed while cutting. Said ‘This is for Syria.’ One filmed it on a GoPro – ISIS wanted trophies. FORENSICS: 68 AUTOPSIES in 72 hours. ZERO KNIVES RECOVERED – but slash wounds on 41 bodies. DNA of 3 ATTACKERS found INSIDE victims’ wounds – they used bare hands. FRANCE BURIED THIS. Why? To protect “cohesion.” To keep importing jihadis. To silence the truth. TODAY – 2025 – FRANCE STILL SUBMITS TO ISLAM. BORDERS REMAIN WIDE OPEN! Meanwhile.... 🚨THE DEAD SCREAM FROM THEIR GRAVES: “REMEMBER WHAT THEY DID.” SHARE THIS. TAG A COWARD POLITICIAN. NEVER LET THEM WHITEWASH JIHAD. REMEMBER THE VICTIMS!

Same Katie Couric that attended Epstein's mansion for a cosy dinner party AFTER he was convicted for being a pedophile.
Washed up journalist Katie Couric asks Rachel Maddow if Stephen Miller is “Satan’s grandbaby.” Friendly reminder that this nasty woman was once employed by ABC, CBS, and NBC.

Then a child should not have access to that phone. If a small child has one, who bought it for them? Who put WiFi access on the phone? Who allowed them to download apps? Who should be checking what their children are looking at and how much screen time they have? The parents!!!
