    United States US presidential election 2024

    An individual reporter might be learned enough to understand it. That doesn't mean they wont pretend ignorance, in order to use it to brand a Republican as a Puppy Murderer. Nonetheless I am a bit disturbed by this. Why? Because any Republican who hasn't spent the last few decades in a coma...

    Dystopian Europe

    If you held a poll in Poland in 1987, you'd have found overwhelming support for Communism. In 1990 after the Revolution, no matter how hard The New York Times tried to find someone to interview to get "the other side of the story", they were unable to find any Communists willing to nostaligize...

    United States Anti-Semitism in the United States (and elsewhere)

    Brilliant! Let me know if there's a way to donate: Someone at UCLA set up a giant screen across from the protesters with the October 7th attack playing on loop Just outside of the Hamasjugend-Camps showing the footage and blaring the "ambient sound" of the massacres from the loudspeakers.

    Breaking News Francis Scott Key Bridge Collapses

    One thing I've been missing from the news so far or glanced over: Was the ship arriving or leaving? Because if it's the latter, then besides the ships crew there might also be a screwup amongst maintainance workers from Balitimore harbour being at least partially responsible rather than an error...

    Military US Military Is Scared Americans Won't Fight For Globalism

    At least the mob in a hypothetical pure democracy you could count on being generally street smart enough to realise, that mass immigration dilutes the gibs and depresses wages. So whatever else idiotic policies might have implemented in the West, if we'd all gone pure democracy say 50 years ago...

    Culture Corporate Diversity, Equity and Inclusion Chiefs Getting Fired

    No. It means that when they are feeling the squeeze financially, Woke White Feminists won't hesitate to throw Black Women under the next bus to save their own hides.

    Culture Welcome to Dismal Disney.

    That's basically the genderbent version of Carrot Ironfoundersson.

    Business & Finance Entertainment Industry Strikes

    Believe it or not I enthusiastically support the strikes! Not in the sense of me supporting the writers, actors, etc guilds. But in the sense of: 1. Seeing this as an "Enemy Civil War", which will probably not end with them destroying each other, but hurting somewhat. 2. Hopefully resulting in...

    Would you mind summarising it?

    EU Nationwide Riots in France Over Police Shooting

    By whom? Anyone suggesting as much would have to provide a reason for wanting to move them. Meaning they'd have state on record, that there's not just "mostly peaceful protests" going on in Paris and might in 2024. Which would be career suicide.

    EU Nationwide Riots in France Over Police Shooting

    Personally I don't expect the French cops to do anything much. With the rather major caveat, that unless their government changes course they won't do anything much either, when the rioters go off script and target government buildings, puplic sector class neighbourhood homes and families, etc...

    Kosh voice: And So it begins. People are taking matters into their own hands confronting climate activists

    ‘The climate extremists have won’ Most of the article doesn't mention anything I didn't know already or at least didn't surprise me to find out. However there is one new development in the UK. Namely that while the authorities keep on pretending they cannot do anything about climate activists...

    SCOTUS Getting Shade Over Roe v Wade

    I wish Amazon would. Would force them to shut down their branches in Europe.

    What would be the consequences of a US withdrawal from NATO?

    Why would he? A much more realistic position would be for him to declare that the US will not fight to protect any NATO ally, that is not funding it's military to the level required by the NATO treaty. Besides having more political justification to do so, than walking away from NATO entirely...

    So what are you watching?

    Not a movie, but this Korean TV Series adaption is brilliant: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bridal_Mask Takes place in the 1930s during Japanese Colonial rule and the stand ins for the "original" characters are not who you'd first think.

    Laws Regarding Transgender Participation in Sports

    I think Conservatives who pass those laws are making a strategic mistake. Better to let the Woke Civil War between TERFeminists and Trans activists continue, than fight the feminists battles for them.

    "Woke" Franchises

    Sure you can still find movies and TV with high production values that isn't woke, just not Western ones. One the reasons Netflix IPs being a woke-fest hasn't gotten me to cancel my subscription is because Netflix has quite a big selection of Asian movies and TV. Not that there's anything wrong...

This forcing schools to provide value for money or...
