scha·den·freu·de  on Twitter - "'FIREARMS ARE THE #1 CAUSE OF DEATH FOR KIDS IN THE US Not books, African American history, LGBTQIA+ rights, healthcare, CRT, or drag queens.'"
Weird. Their petty grievances being insignificant has never stopped liberals from trying to push their agenda (they usually claim you can care about more than one thing at a time). So this means that they're going to stop pushing divisive books & African American history, the LGBTQIA+ agenda, trying to change healthcare, push CRT, or force drag queens on kids and concentrate only on guns?

Auckland surgeons must now consider ethnicity in prioritising patients for operations - some are not happy - "Auckland surgeons are now required to consider a patient’s ethnicity alongside other factors when deciding who should get an operation first. Several surgeons say they are upset by the policy, which was introduced in Auckland in February and gave priority to Māori and Pacific Island patients - on the grounds that they have historically had unequal access to healthcare... Some surgeons, who spoke on the condition of anonymity, said the new scoring tool was medically indefensible. They said patients should be prioritised on how sick they were, how urgently they needed treatment, and how long they had been waiting for it - not on their ethnicity. One of the surgeons said he was “disgusted” by the new ranking system."
Damn white privilege!

Adults expose themselves to children at Toronto Pride Parade - "The crowd included many children, one of whom was spotted next to a group of grown men dancing in nothing but speedos. One group took things a step further, wearing nothing but shoes as they made their way down Yonge Street in the name of "body positivity." The crowd, which included many children, was also subjected to watching a naked man in a Bugs Bunny mask and fluffy white slippers slowly hopping down the street."
BREAKING: Trudeau Liberals celebrate Toronto Pride as fetishists expose themselves to children - "In addition to the adults exposing themselves to children, a drag queen with oversized fake breasts was recorded on the back of a truck during the parade."
Damn far right!

Full nudity in front of kids is fine during Pride events, Toronto police say - "Similar scenes have been captured in US cities during their respective Pride events... The officer told Primo that being nude in public is against the law. But when Primo said he saw naked people at the Pride parade, the officer replied “it happens every year.” Primo asked, “So it’s okay when it’s at the Pride parade, but not in other situations, obviously?” “Yeah, exactly,” the officer said. Section 173(2) of the Criminal Code of Canada makes it illegal to willfully expose one’s genitals to a person under 16, with violators liable to imprisonment for a term no more than two years. If skeptics think full frontal public nudity is not sexualized, it’s worth remembering Pride events literally celebrate sexuality... Canada’s Liberal Finance Minister Chrystia Freeland attended a Pride event this year, as did New Democrat Party Federal leader Jagmeet Singh. The same parties that condemned protesters for honking their horns, have nothing but praise for marchers who show theirs. Prime Minister Trudeau shockingly missed marching in a Canadian Pride event this year, but made sure to virtue signal with a picture of him standing next to a Pride crosswalk while in Iceland, where he was busy lying to the media about a public inquiry. Conservatives, meanwhile, get shamed for not supporting Pride enough."
Auron MacIntyre on Twitter - "From “how does this effect you personally” to “grown men exposing themselves to children is legal” in 10 years"

MacIntyre: The bottom of the slippery slope - "At a Pride parade in Seattle over the weekend, a group of nude adults rode bicycles in the middle of the street as they waved giddily at a crowd full of children. Twitter accounts like Libs of Tiktok and the Post Millennial broke the story, including video of the shocking event, and the response from progressives was rather telling. The left was outraged, not at the adults who had exposed themselves to children, but at the conservative media outlets that had dared to reveal what actually happened to minors in one of America’s largest cities. Attorney and progressive pundit Ron Filipkowski tweeted out, “As I said when Pride Month began, the Right uses this stuff to win elections and then pass laws and appoint judges to take away your rights.” "Star Trek" actor and outspoken activist George Takei quickly replied, “Even if there were no naked guys on bikes this year, they would find picture or generate them and push the same agenda anyway. There’s no 'fixing' this by calling for self-censoring.” The horrific honesty of this exchange is stunning. It would seem that grown men exposing themselves to children is not the real problem; it is, in fact, a right and a form of self-expression. Takei characterized covering one’s genitals as self-censorship, which can only lead to one question: Why does he see getting naked in front of a crowd full of children as an essential expression of LGBTQ identity? The implication is that this activity is both normal and encouraged at Pride events and was only being curtailed due to concerns about optics now that minors are regularly in attendance. Takei, sure that the right will continue to oppose Pride events no matter what, simply sees no reason for LGBTQ parade participants to censor themselves by wearing clothes in front of children... The cycle of normalization has repeated so often that by now every conservative should be able to identify the phases on sight.
Step one: Claim nothing is happening and paint those who notice as conspiracy theorists.
Step two: Acknowledge that some isolated incidents may be happening, but assert that those who notice are motivated by bigotry.
Step three: Admit that yes it might be happening, but claim that most people do not really oppose it and that focusing on it is the real problem.
Step four: Openly force celebration of the fact that it was always happening by threatening the livelihood of anyone who opposes you...
America was warned repeatedly by the religious right what this path would look like... In 2021 the Washington Post ran an article by Lauren Rowello titled, “Yes, kink belongs at Pride. And I want my kids to see it.” The article was met with outrage, but two years later the position has become thoroughly mainstreamed"

Anger at Keighley mayor's apology for taking part in Pride event - "ANGER has erupted after Keighley's town mayor apologised on social media for taking part in a Pride flag-raising ceremony. Councillor Mohammed Nazam participated in the ceremony, held annually in Keighley's Town Hall Square, on Friday. But he has subsequently posted on a Facebook page called Keighley Pakistanis that he "wholeheartedly" apologises for participating in the event, and describes his decision as a "lapse in judgment". His comments have sparked a furious public reaction, and calls for him to stand down as mayor. Cllr Nazam, who also represents Keighley Central ward on Bradford Council, said in his post: "I wholeheartedly apologise for my participation in the flag-raising ceremony, as it contradicts my personal religious beliefs, as many of you are aware... "While I’m unwavering in my commitment to uphold my deep-rooted religious beliefs as a faithful Muslim, I want to emphasise that I actively support and promote tolerance for individuals of all faiths, creeds and colours, as my faith and the law of the land requires me to do... "My aim has always been to represent the best interests of the people of Keighley Central ward and residents of wider Keighley, and I hope my future actions will demonstrate my commitment to serving our community with fairness and inclusivity.""
Islamophobia!

Multiculturalists confused as Muslim modesty clashes with Pride - "a group of what appeared to be elementary school-aged Arab-Canadian boys were filmed stomping on a pile of miniature rainbow flags at an “anti-gender ideology” protest in Ottawa. The frolicsome tots were egged on by a posse of headscarf-clad women (presumably female relatives). One onlooker appeared to be wearing a niqab. Whilst a time traveller from 2015 would doubtlessly have been baffled by the scene, the other protesters in attendance ate it up, serenading the boys with an approving chant of, “Leave our kids alone!” One, a silver-haired white man wielding a Canadian flag, reached out to shake hands with each of the children. “Right on, guys!” he added with gusto. The scene in Ottawa was a vivid illustration of a growing disconnect between Muslim Canadians and the progressive left over increasingly ubiquitous Pride-related activities catering to minors (which are now commonplace in public school systems across the country)... Muslim groups are, in fact, becoming increasingly visible in the anti-Pride movement. Over the weekend, a protest against “forced LGBTQ indoctrination in schools” promoted by the Facebook group YYC Muslims drew an estimated 200 people to downtown Calgary. The protest’s Muslim organizers were joined by likeminded allies from other faiths in the visibly multiethnic demonstration. (A noticeably paler group of about two dozen pro-LGBT+ counter-protesters assembled nearby). In a recorded message shared to Facebook, organizer Mahmoud Mourra stressed the ecumenical character of the protest: “Thank God we (are) all standing together: Jewish, Muslim, Christian, atheist.” Adding, “I was surprised by the amount of support we are getting (from non-Muslims).” With Islam now growing faster than any other major religion in Canada, the events in Ottawa and Calgary are bound to be repeated in other Canadian cities with sizeable Muslim populations. In fact, Canadians can look just across the Detroit River to Michigan (home to the United States’ largest Arab community) for a sign of things to come... The events playing out in Michigan provide a window into a not-too-distant future for Canada, which is home to nearly five times as many Muslims per capita as the United States. They also speak to irreconcilable differences between the cultural modesty of most Muslim sects and the in-your-face flamboyance of Pride celebrations. Our “United Colours of Benetton” model of multiculturalism gives us no roadmap to neatly resolve this impasse. Contrary to popular belief, Islam is not a uniquely homophobic faith (passages of the Quran dealing with homosexuality are similar to ones found in other Abrahamic texts). One way Islam does differ from other faiths, however, is in the paramount importance it places on haya — or a healthy sense of shame. In fact, the Prophet Muhammad himself is believed to have said, “Every religion has its signature character trait, and the signature character trait of Islam is ḥaya”. Accordingly, the Quran advises both men and women to “lower their gaze and guard their modesty.” And, through the centuries, modesty has remained the North Star of Islam: informing modes of dress, Islamic art and aesthetics, and other hallmarks of the faith. This all-encompassing devotion to modesty is, in my (admittedly biased) view, one of the most beautiful parts of Islam. Islamic modesty is also hopelessly incompatible with Pride Month: a time of year marked by gaudy, rainbow-coloured flags, ornately dressed drag performers, and highly public displays of sexual self-expression. (“Pride” is, after all, the antonym of “shame.”) The centre simply cannot hold when the values Muslim children are inculcated with at public schools are directly antithetical to the teachings of their faith. It’s only logical that Muslim parents now find themselves on the front lines of the pushback against excessive Pride celebrations in schools. The Muslim backlash against Pride Month exposes the fatal flaw in Canadian multiculturalism. Our national ethos of inclusion tells us to be welcoming to newcomers; but what happens when newcomers don’t embrace the same inclusive values themselves?"

'Anti-racist' hypocrisy targets Muslim children for religious beliefs - "In a diverse society like Canada, it is not unusual for students and parents belonging to minority faith groups to request exemptions from participating in lessons and activities that contradict their religious beliefs. Normally, the school hears parental concerns and comes up with a plan to fulfill its duty to accommodate. In most cases, students are provided an alternative lesson that meets curriculum objectives or, if no accommodation can be made, parents are informed before the material is taught so that they can pull their children out of class... Sadly, this June has proven to be an unfortunate exception for many Canadian Muslim families. Alarmed by efforts to not just educate, but to instead promote practices and beliefs that they believe are contrary to their faith, they have requested accommodation and exemptions, which have been promptly rejected based on “no opt-out” directives. As a result, some families decided to keep their children home on the first day of June, the beginning of Pride Month. While some teachers and staff were understanding, it led to a furious response from others. In a shocking display of what can best be described as ignorant or at worst bigoted, an Edmonton teacher berated Muslim students who skipped in-school Pride activities, telling them “You don’t belong (in Canada)” if they didn’t support LGBTQ rights, that they were disrespectful, and that they were ungrateful for having their holidays recognized at school. In a school in the Ottawa area, a teacher distributed a booklet to students in her Grade 5/6 class that was specifically targeted at Muslim youth and which promoted the very practices and beliefs that Muslim families find objectionable. The booklet went as far as discussing sex — even though the Ontario health curriculum only introduces the subject in Grade 7. This “resource,” titled “I’m Muslim and I might not be straight,” is also available on the school board’s website and is the only one on the topic addressed to any faith group. Students at an Ottawa secondary school reported staff guarded doors during a Pride Month assembly to ensure that no one left, while others patrolled hallways and one even checked the parking lot to find students who refused to attend. A parent reported that their child in Grade 3 at another school was told he could not go to recess unless he drew a rainbow. Parents have told me that other students have been threatened with expulsion if they do not participate in Pride Month activities. Sadly, these attacks on Muslim children, with reckless disregard for their mental health and well-being, came the day after the second anniversary of the murders of four members of the Afzaal family in London in a hate-motivated attack. The irony is that many who champion anti-racism and anti-oppression practices appear to have forgotten those practices today. Any faith-based disagreements with LGBTQ+ beliefs and practices by Muslim families are immediately dismissed as being hateful. It is difficult to ignore that this gaslighting of the religious rights of a visible minority group is being perpetuated by individuals and institutions who benefit from white privilege, in support of a group that also benefits from white privilege. The image of mainly white teachers and staff targeting minority children, making them feel less than others due to their traditional beliefs, is reminiscent of past colonial attitudes that are now recognized to have caused great harm. To be clear, the religious objections by Muslim families are not regarding LGBTQ+ people themselves but rather LGBTQ+ beliefs and practices. For example, cross-dressing and changing one’s birth gender is expressly forbidden under mainstream Islamic teachings — not unlike other religions — unless there is physiological evidence to justify such a change. Active participation in activities and celebrations deemed to be morally objectionable, whether it be a celebration of same-sex relationships, pre-marital relationships or a celebration involving pork or alcohol, is prohibited. Muslim families that find such beliefs and practices to be inconsistent with their faith don’t expect others to agree with them, nor do they expect to impose their beliefs on others in a secular society. For instance, a child who has a religious objection to colouring a Ramadan lantern or making Eid cards should be exempted. Their absence would not make Muslim students feel marginalized because the choice to not participate is not an act of discrimination or hate. Similarly, schools should not cancel pizza days for non-Muslim students during Ramadan. Those who are fasting should simply have the option to not eat. Pride has been celebrated in Canada for decades, and there have been no recorded protests against it by Canadian Muslims until now. Many thought that staying quiet out of respect for the choices of others, despite disagreement, would help foster harmony and respect. This approach now appears to have been mistaken because while Muslims stayed quiet, LGBTQ beliefs and practices were promoted to the point of imposition upon others. This experience tells minorities in Canada that they must remain in a perpetual struggle to promote their beliefs and practices because not doing so will lead to the erosion of their rights."
Clearly it's a right wing conspiracy theory that kids in school are forced to participate in Pride

Muslim Protesters Shut Down Michigan School-Board Meeting over LGBTQ Books - "A school-board meeting in Dearborn, Mich. was shut down earlier this week by hundreds of protesters opposing the circulation of LGBTQ books across the city’s public-school system... Many of the protesters carried signs in English and Arabic: “Keep Your Dirty Books in the Closet,” “Stop Grooming Our Kids,” and “Homosexuality Big Sin,” some read. Tensions boiled over when Roxanne McDonald, chair of the school board, limited attendee speaking time to three minutes. The proceedings were then halted due to fears that the growing crowd violated the fire code. Shouts of “Vote them out!” broke out. Dearborn and neighboring Dearborn Heights are overwhelmingly Muslim communities just outside of Detroit. The town elected its first Arab-American mayor in 2021 on the back of the community’s support. Rashida Tlaib’s congressional district, Michigan’s 13th, abuts the area, too. One of the community’s prominent religious leaders, Imam Hassan Al-Qazwini urged followers to attend the school-board meeting during his Friday sermon. “Some of those books are completely inappropriate for our children to read,” Al-Qazwini said. “Some of those books promote pornography. Some of them promote homosexuality. We don’t need this.”... The Dearborn incident is reminiscent of similar British Muslim protests against same-sex education. Weeks of protests wracked Birmingham when local schools sought to teach “LBGT-inclusive content” to young students. At one point, LGBT campaigners and their children were pelted with eggs by protesters, and about half the school’s students were voluntarily withdrawn from classes by parents."

Andy Ngô 🏳️‍🌈 on Twitter - "CAIR, the largest Muslim organization in the US, expressed support for the Muslim anti-gay protesters. Dearborn has a very high Muslim population that is celebrated by left-wing ideologues & Democrats. They’ve been careful to not criticize the Muslims who oppose the LGBTQ books."

MD Dem Says Muslim Families Sided with 'White Supremacists' on LGBTQ+ - "A Maryland Democrat said Muslim families have sided with “white supremacists” for speaking out against LGBTQQIAAP2S+ materials being taught in the classroom. The comment came from Democrat Kristin Mink, a member of the Montgomery County Council for District 5... Mink further argued that Muslim parents have no right to opt their children out of textbooks highlighting LGBTQQIAAP2S+ issues. “That is equity,” said Mink. “That’s not an infringement on, you know, particular religious freedoms, just as we cannot allow folks to opt out of teachings about evolution.”... “Freedom of religion is a fundamental human right that protects the conscience of all people. It allows us to think, express and act upon what we deeply believe. But around the world and in the United States, this freedom is eroding,” said Muslim child Yasmeen Elkoshairi... Armenian immigrants also clashed with LGBTQQIAAP2S+ activists in Glendale, California"

How bad minorities became ‘white’ - "Whiteness, Beltrán says, is the ‘politics of aggression, exclusion and domination’. And multiracial whiteness ‘reflects an understanding of whiteness as a political colour and not simply a racial identity’. It is a ‘discriminatory worldview in which feelings of freedom and belonging are produced through the persecution and dehumanisation of others’. Beltrán is tapping into a now-common view among the woke that all the world’s ills stem from a vague notion of ‘whiteness’. White people are said to be morally compromised by their white privilege, which gives them unspoken advantages and favours. Meanwhile, white people’s reluctance to identify openly with their whiteness is derided as ‘white fragility’. When Beltrán suggests that black and Latino Trump voters have a ‘discriminatory worldview’ it sounds like she is accusing them of garden-variety racism (not that she provides any evidence that non-white Trump voters hold this view). But in woke circles, racism is not just a question of prejudice or bigotry about skin colour. It’s common to hear racism redefined as ‘prejudice plus power’. A certain amount of mental gymnastics has to be performed to place these non-white (alleged) racists alongside whites. And so ‘multiracial whiteness’ is born. Similarly, this is how the New York Times managed to accuse two Indian boys who harassed four African-American girls of ‘enacting American whiteness’. Far lesser crimes than racism – such as simply holding conservative views – also now mark one out as a bad minority. Any deviance from the woke worldview is dismissed as a performance of whiteness or as ‘internalised whiteness’. Even an aspiration to colourblindness – once the hallmark of civil-rights anti-racism – is now denounced as pandering to whiteness. ‘For voters who see the very act of acknowledging one’s racial identity as itself racist’, says Beltrán, ‘the politics of multiracial whiteness reinforces their desired approach to colourblind individualism’. A concept as bizarre and contradictory as multiracial whiteness serves as an excellent reminder that race really is fluid and socially constructed. There has never been and never will be a fixed idea of who is white and who is not... What is so strange about the debate around ‘whiteness’ is that, on the one hand, the woke often gesture to the fact that race is a social rather than biological construct. But on the other hand, they argue that race should be the bedrock of our identities, our worldview and how we organise society. The fight against this nebulous and ever-shifting notion of whiteness ends up fortifying racial thinking. The genuinely progressive thing to do is to rid ourselves of race entirely.""

Labour's Lisa Nandy in fresh woke row after praising report claiming 'UK no longer a great power' - "Labour’s Lisa Nandy is at the centre of a new row over ‘wokery’ after praising a report which suggested replacing Britain’s Armed Forces with a ‘gender-balanced human security’ corps. The Shadow Foreign Secretary faced ridicule after helping to launch a report by the Open Labour group which said the main job of the forces should be to ‘dampen down violence rather than intervene on one side or the other’. Ms Nandy, 41, said she was ‘inspired’ by the pamphlet, which included the argument that that ‘the UK is no longer a great power’ and cited ‘countries like [the] Scandinavians’ as a model for the UK’s role in the world... Ms Nandy is already embroiled in a row over war leader Winston Churchill after she accused Boris Johnson of stoking a ‘culture war’ for criticising vandals who defaced his statue in Parliament Square. Labour’s foreign affairs chief has also declared that Labour was seeking to emulate Biden and his ‘woke’ agenda... Labour MPs in the North privately reminded Ms Nandy, MP for Wigan, that traditional Labour voters needed to hear a stronger signal of the party’s patriotism."

City Councilwoman Tells Cop To Take His 'White Self Back To The White Neighborhood' - "The chief of police credited an officer with using the “highest level of professionalism” in dealing with a city councilwoman who made racially-charged remarks to him when he issued her a parking ticket. The incident occurred when Darlington Police Officer Paul Bryant encountered an illegally parked SUV in the area of Oak Street on June 17, WMBF reported. Officer Bryant later filed a police report about the incident that accused Baccus of verbally harassing him... It wasn’t the first time Officer Bryant had encountered the same illegally-parked vehicle and on the prior occasion, he had only issued a warning. Darlington Police Chief Kelvin Washington said that the SUV belonged to Darlington City Councilwoman Sheila Baccus... “Take your white self back to the white neighborhood,” Baccus told the officer. “You’re probably the kind that would shoot us in the back.”"

Thread by @peligrietzer on Thread Reader App – Thread Reader App - " I truly don't know anything more shocking than the neverending literature on how every tractable 'nurture' effect disappears by early adulthood Like, you'd think that if some nurture thing reliably makes kids do worse in junior high there's gonna be a chain reaction leading on to less good college prospects, then less fancy job and whatnot, but instead the influence just disappears! The only sane interpretation I can think of is that modern Western societies are structured to involve a bunch of resets in between, like, 12 and 21. Adolescence, and then young adulthood, is designed exactly to disrupt feedback effects from parental nurture By the way, the usual caveat applies that by 'nurture' we're looking at parents and not at cultures or cities or neighborhood Still, absolute insane stuff, with hardly a study anywhere to challenge it If 'nurture' straight up didn't work that would be one thing, but 'nurture works till puberty than all downstream effects slowly wash out until they're gone by 23' is a real mystery We know that parental 'nurture' influences juvenile delinquency, for instance, so the fact that even that has no downstream effects by 23 is genuinely weird to me" Kind of seems like holding class and race constant, Western countries do in fact supply basically infinite Bildung-redos and reputation-redos between 12 and 21? Actually I'm not 100% sure how many studies I've read that aren't mostly from a white middle class community, so maybe it's just 'holding a white middle class community constant' If parental nurture effects don't 'wash out' in the same way when you study an e.g. black working class community, that could be a nuclear quant validation of 'only white people get to freely fuck around and find themselves'"
@tedunderwood.bsky.social 🦋 on Twitter - "That sounds a lot like "children mostly interact with parents till puberty, when influence of peers takes over.""

China & Woke Politics: Why Politically Correct Institutions Cave to Beijing | National Review - " More onChina Every Lawyer’s Nightmare Client Do Wuhan Institute of Virology Scientists Often Fall from the Building’s Roof? The Price of Blinken’s China Trip Selective indignation is not new. What’s striking about this latest version is its zones of prevalence. The sectors of the economy most wedded to the view that American society is systemically racist — entertainment, sports, media, tech — are the least concerned with the real and concrete injustices of the antidemocratic and hostile Chinese regime. This is the woke dialectic: dissent in America, acquiescence to China. Just as people became aware of Mulan’s complicity in injustice, the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences promulgated a complicated set of ethnic, racial, and sexual quotas that films must meet in order to become eligible for the best-picture Oscar... the Academy is less interested in contextualizing and challenging the absence of civil and political rights elsewhere. In 2013 it was happy to accept $20 million from one of China’s largest multinationals. The NBA is no different... the same newspapers that devote so much space to advancing America’s racial reckoning (and whose foreign desks often report on the foulness of China’s dictatorship) also accepted millions from the Chinese government to run propaganda. The same company, Alphabet, that earlier this year announced millions in donations to social-justice nonprofits expressed no qualms in 2017 when it opened an AI research center in China. In other words, the same businesses that promote the progressive reconstruction, radical reform, or transformation of the United States are intertwined with the revisionist great power that aims to replace the United States as global hegemon. This synthesis of the woke dialectic lends an additional meaning to the term “allyship.” And it is why champions of individual rights, equality under the law, due process, and pluralism stand athwart both political correctness at home and authoritarianism abroad."
China Violates Disclosure Law to Publish Propaganda in NY Times, WaPo - "China routinely broke federal law by not disclosing how much it spent to publish regime propaganda in the New York Times, the Washington Post, and other newspapers"
