“You have rights; your beliefs do not.”

If only…

Humanists ought to be concerned about humans regardless of their national origin, ancestry or religion. What can we do to promote individual freedoms and rights? How do we protect people? Accident of one’s birth into some Islamic hell hole or Hindu or fill in the blank should not be the reason…[Read more]

Thanks, Reg 🙂

Have a great week! Too sunny to be be indoors today so the post is a bit shorter that normal.

A person has dignity, legal protection, bodily safety, freedom of conscience, and freedom of expression. A belief has no skin to bruise, no liberty to imprison, no mouth to silence, and no claim to immunity from scrutiny.

You have rights; your beliefs do not.

Enco,

You are spot on that modernity has delivered a lot of upgrades.

On other hand how much better are the masses today compared to yesteryear? I don’t have answers to that question. It is easy to point to the Islamic world as backwards and filled with oppression and persecution. Wars all over the fucking glob. Starvation. Famine. Ignorance. I…[Read more]

Oh, and think of the implications/repercussions of that tech.

Ya wanna assasinate someone. Gonna be easy to locate em. Might help pinpoint targets and avoid innocents i suppose. But with Muslim terrorists we are all kuffar. Great tech for thieves. Steal shit when they are not there. Great tech for rapists.

And then imagine that technology in…[Read more]

Strega,

You’re probably in a bucolic paradise where the immediacy and rapidity of incipient technohell is a little removed. AKA Vermont.

I aint arguing that it can be stopped. Am only crying the blues up and down at a future that might have been avoided by a stronger Luddite movement. Naa no stopping the tide…

Jake, I don’t think it’s particularly scary.

We have been becoming more and more visible via electronic mechanisms over the years, and eventually we will have to learn to live with this. Tin foil hats probably won’t help. So it’s futile to knee jerk against this kind of usage of WiFi, because it’s coming. Writing laws prohibiting things don’t act…[Read more]

This is alarming.

The war with Iran is the next stage of Israel’s post–October 7 strategy. They have dealt with the immediate perpetrators and neighboring proxy fronts . But chopping off their head is not enough. Now they are dealing the Iranian state infrastructure that supports, arms, funds and coordinates much of the wider terror network. ‘Netty’ said that Ham…[Read more]

Oh and i should say the plan was always regime change. There is no long term security until the religious kingdom comers are out of there. Their treaties are useless. There is an islamic doctrine that makes it kosher. Their military capability compromised for time being but their objectives intact.

Trump and especially Netty are well aware. Why…[Read more]

Trump talks out of his ass most of the time. And then they play the game of taking him at his word as though he were a serious human being giving honest assessments. So some military leader is the fall guy.

One has to have a plan in order to know when the objectives are reached.

I did see that some other place. If you take it at face value it is a head-scratcher. I don’t. Not sure what the full plan was. Netty has been warning about theocratic Islam’ designs on kingdom coming for a long time. And he is no dolt.

Well said Enco.

How rare is intelligence? I mean general intelligence. The ideological capture of so many academics, the presidents of universities, the students. The underlying narratives are so weak and transparent.

I grew up wtihout giving respect to a thinker until i thought it was earned. I think that was due to having a father who is…[Read more]

Enco,

I meant broadly speaking a reflection of the electorate and more to the point of the zeitgeist. Reg had a good article on the flowering of Jew hatred and differences between far right and far left in contemporary world. Far left and far right come at it a little differently.

She is a reflection of the electorate.

Zionism is the code word for Filthy Jew and its associations.

I remember the first time i argued with a gal about zionism. I was gobsmacked at her antipathy. None of the rational things i raised seemed to make a dent. A welcoming to progressivism…

Enco,

My Lezbrews reference was to the idea i had to counter the propaganda against Israel with a story about mythical Lezbrews of yore. Nothing to do with sexual orientation of those women.

Iron, iron that, iron giant, irony…

Looky here. A tribute to the Lezbrews.

And they got something for globalize the intifada from the river to the pea.
