Anti-Muslim hate and antisemitism

*Anti-Muslim hate and antisemitism are twin crises. We must confront them together.*

As usual, the religion that is really dangerous in the west is the majority religion here — Christianity. Particularly the evangelical variety.

Cuts to intervention programs

*[The saboteur's] cuts to intervention programs could increase violent crime, experts say. Community programs are more effective at reducing violence than simply making arrests, advocates say.*

Meta suing former employee

Meta is suing a former employee, Sarah Wynn-Williams, for publishing a book about her experiences working there.

She was invited to panel at a major book festival, but because the court had threatened to fine her, she dared not speak or make any gestures.

The book is called Careless People. If you want to buy the book, or any book, I urge you not to obtain it from Amazon. By paying cash for it anonymously, you can fight against Orwellian surveillance.

I have found a local bookstore that is willing to let me order books anonymously, paying cash in advance, and I occasionally do that. That enables me to order new books (but not used books) that are not available in a physical book store. Since the store does not know my name, I think its request for cash in advance is entirely reasonable.

Maybe you too can find a bookstore near you that will do this for you.

Why bully directs systematized cruelty

Why does the bully direct his agents to perform so much systematized cruelty on randomly chosen victims? One possible explanation is that imposing an inflexible system manipulates people to believe that the system is justified and correct.

Why UK banned Hasan Piker and Cenk Uygur from speaking

Why did the UK ban Hasan Piker and Cenk Uygur from speaking at Oxford? Arwa Mahdawi's response is, "Because on Gaza, we punish the witness, not the crime."

*Banning leftwing activists from entering Britain: an illiberal move with a long history in [Britain].*

The Oxford Union invited them to speak by videoconference instead.

I hope they don't plan to use Zoom, because Zoom censors remote talks about political topics much as the UK government censors presencial ones.

Deportation prison for families

The deportation thugs were planning to set up a special deportation prison specifically for families.

It might be a little less cruel to children than an ordinary deportation prison, normally used only to jail adults. However, if it tortures the prisoners like most US deportation prisons, it could do irreparable harm in a few weeks.

House passes resolution to end US fighting with Iran

The House of Representatives passed the resolution to end US fighting with Iran. The Senate has not yet voted, but it may pass.

As the article shows, the bullshitter has already demonstrated how he would respond if the resolution does pass: with falsification. His philosophy is, "Grab what you want, then state contemptuous bullshit as an excuse."

If senators don't like to be given bullshit, they will need to start blocking lots of other things the bullshitter wants.

Prisoners denied food and water until they sign documents

Prisoners of the deportation thugs report they are denied food and clean water unless they sign documents they can't even read.

The attempt to force false confessions is a standard practice of cruel governments that despise justice. Many countries have done it. It is the shame of the US to be one of them.

Pretend Intelligence agents mess things up like Mr Magoo

Because Pretend Intelligence "agents" do not really understand what they were told to do, not at the level of ground truth that is, nor the actual effects of their actions, they often mess things up like Mr Magoo.

Impeachment to induce splits in the Republican Party

Ralph Nader argues that an impeachment drive against the corrupter now, before the 2026 election, would be a good way to induce splits in the Republican Party and may be drive him to resign.

His arguments may be valid, but I wonder how much less destructive and cruel Vance would be.
