Are you concerned that someone you know is becoming too prepared?

You know, we shouldn't be too quick to mock facebook here.
It's entirely possible that by clicking 'get support', these nosy busybodies are referred to resources which might help them understand they're being naive idiots...Such as recent news reports about toilet paper shortages.

Oh who am I kidding. Of course it's some kind of pearl-clutching zaniness about how food storage is step one to becoming a goose-stepping hate-criminal because some Silicone Valley dweeb saw a clip of an episode of 'Preppers' on his Ipad. *eyeroll*

Ah I love the smell of missile spam in the morning
And Australia is planning to go full China


If I was the President the following would happen. Australia how you govern your nation is up to you however if such a abuse of human rights passees it will result in us kicking you out of the five eyes agreement and pulling all support for your armed forces and law enforcement. Then again if I was President Big Tech would be screwed

It's enough to make one wonder why they are so worried about China when they seem to going the CCP way at full speed.
Probably have just enough brain cells left to realize that they won't be at the top and will be replaced when the CCP has no more use for the traitors.

Google has moved to deplatform pro-life organizations and eliminate ads that support pro-life treatments, especially the "Abortion Reversal" treatment for women who started taking abortifacients designed to cause a miscarriage, and then regretted the decision and wanted to keep the child. This appears to be in response to a Daily Beast hit piece by their "Gender Reporter" who stated that the treatment wasn't FDA approved (Progesterone's been FDA approved for .




Pro-Abortion doctor Mitchell Creinin ran a study, apparently, to debunk the use of Abortion Reversal. His objections to the existing multi-hundreds of people studies were that nobody was given a placebo (The doctors involved felt it was unethical to give women who wanted to keep their child placebos while telling them it was medication to save their child). For some reason he used a group of only 12 for his whole study and the Anti-Abortion treatment was still twice as effective as the placebo. In point of fact, his results showed that 4 of the 6 women who were on the actual medication continued the regime... and all 4 kept their babies, but that's kinda hidden if you don't know how to read the study since he reports only four successes out of six and you have to dig through another part to notice that two of the six dropped out. I also like how he highlighted the side effects of the Abortion Reversal as nausea and vomiting, AKA the most common early effects of pregnancy.

Ahhh...science.

What a doosh.
This is going to sound harsh.

Treatments meant to prevent a miscarriage (which is what an abortion pill causes) are kinda pointless.

We're really inbred. Roughly 7/10 fertilized eggs have chromosomal abnormalities and don't become newborn infants. That's before one of the enormous number of ticking time bombs lurking in our DNA detonates and causes health problems later.

I'm a bit late finding this one but still rather significant. So a bit of background, this App is the Navalny Tactical Voting App. Like just about everybody who tried to run against Putin, Navalny was suddenly charged with various crimes and thrown into prison before the election. However, Navalny's supporters did not give up and went with a new strategy, producing the Tactical Voting App. I don't entirely understand the details, in part because I don't entirely understand the Russian electoral system, however it appears to be designed to allow users to essentially "vote" ahead of time on candidates, allowing the people in a specific district to see who has what support and change planned future votes around so that rather than several small-time candidates that are all guaranteed to lose, the opposition voters can come to an agreement on one of the various candidates available and boot out the current incumbent. Near as I can tell the plan was to remove Putin's various supporters first, in order to reduce Putin's ability to throw anybody who runs against him in prison and allow an opposition candidate to actually make it to the ballot for once.

Needless to say, Putin wasn't too fond of this and ordered both Apple and Google to remove the App. In a show of solidarity with rigged elections everywhere, they removed it in September even though the law didn't require it before November. Because Navalny supporters also share information on Google Docs, Russia is looking at having those removed too.

Wasn't he also suspended a couple of weeks ago?
No, not that I saw.

He's turned his profile private a couple times, and stepped away from Twitter for a week or two before, but I do not think he's ever been suspended before.
