Ewan C. Forbes on X - "You have to wonder what fuels her view of racism if not data. And if statistical fact is the same as hate, and that is to be avoided at all costs, she's decided that reality is worth sidestepping entirely if inconvenient. And this view isn't uncommon."

Wilfred Reilly on X - "Spending decades telling entire population groups - from my own ethnic community to liberal women - that they can never truly be at fault for anything was a giant mistake. By now, millions of citizens BELIEVE it, and this impacts conversations about literally everything from sexless marriage to Black crime."
Wilfred Reilly on X - "The core argument of critical race theory is quite literally that any bad thing Blacks or other minorities do is white people's fault. The core argument of later-wave feminism is quite literally that any bad thing women do is men's fault. I can point you to chapter and verse here, if you want - i.e., Kendi (2020: 12). These are stupid and untenable ideologies."

Terrence K. Williams on X - "Dear Michelle Obama, let me jog your memory since you can’t stop playing the victim card for five minutes. You keep talking about how “hard” it is to be Black in America and how white people are supposedly holding you down. meanwhile: You became the first Black First Lady in American history. You were a well-paid lawyer before that. You received multi-million-dollar book deals. You and your husband walked away with a $60 million Netflix deal despite zero experience in film. You and Barack left the White House richer than you entered. You own multiple multi-million-dollar homes , including oceanfront mansions. Your family’s net worth is over $100 million. All of this happened in the same America you claim is “unfair” and “holding you back.” Instead of fear-mongering and discouraging Black Americans, maybe try showing some gratitude for the country that made you one of the most privileged people on the planet and start inspiring Black people instead of convincing them they’re powerless. Because if America was really as bad as you say, Michelle, you wouldn’t be living the American Dream at the very top of it."
Lavern Spicer 🇺🇸 on X - "Dear Michelle Obama. Let me school your miserable muthafuckin ass since you can’t seem to remember how blessed you are. You are married to the first Black president in American history. You are the first Black First Lady in American history. Because of that, you and Barack left the White House richer than when yall slithered into it. Because of that, your Black ass got a multi-million-dollar book deal. Because of that, you and your FAKE ASS HUSBAND walked away with a $60 million Netflix deal. Because of that, yall own mansions. Because of that, yall own beachfront property. Because of that, yalls kids and grandkids are set for life. Because of ALL OF THAT, your family’s net worth is over $100 million. And yet you got the muthafuckin nerve to still get on stage whining like you picking cotton in 1855 instead of sipping champagne in Martha’s Vineyard. No Black American woman will ever be as privileged as you are bitch. So sit your ungrateful, race-hustling ass down and thank the country you spent 8 years shitting on. America gave you EVERYTHING. The least you could do is shut the fuck up and smile, ho."
NS premier blasts judges over demand that staffers remove poppies - "Nova Scotia Premier Tim Houston is threatening to pass a law enshrining the right to wear a poppy in the workplace after two of the province’s judges started requiring court staffers to ask for their permission to wear poppies in their courtrooms. The issue came to light after the Atlantic version of Frank Magazine reported Judge Ronda van der Hoek, associate chief judge of the Provincial Court, and Nova Scotia Supreme Court Justice Jean Dewolfe (of the family division), who both work out of the Kentville Justice Centre in the Annapolis Valley, did not want court staff wearing poppies in their courtrooms... “This order was issued under the guise that the poppy is somehow a ‘political statement.’ This is disgusting. The poppy is not a political statement. It is a symbol of remembrance and respect for the fallen and those who served and continue to serve our country.”... Poppies have been worn in Canada since 1921, said the Nova Scotia premier... Former federal justice minister and former Crown attorney Peter MacKay also commented on the matter. “Say it isn’t so,” MacKay posted on X. “Hearing that 2 NS Judges have ordered court staff, some of whom are Vets to remove poppies in the courtroom. What an outrage. A previous ‘ban’ on CAF/Vets wearing uniforms in schools when (meeting) students was broadly repudiated.” MacKay was referencing the Nova Scotia elementary school that asked service members and veterans not to wear their uniforms last year to a Remembrance Day ceremony. The school soon did an about-face on the request after facing flak from the province’s premier. In a November 2024 newsletter distributed to parents, Sackville Heights Elementary School invited service members to come to the ceremony, but asked them to leave their military uniforms at home. “To maintain a welcoming environment for all, we kindly request that service members wear civilian clothing,” the newsletter said."
Patriotism and loving your country is only for fascists, after all
Senate passes bill to remove mention of 'barbaric cultural practices' from Harper-era law - "The Senate has approved a bill that would remove mention of “barbaric cultural practices” from a law that outlaws forced marriage. Liberal Sen. Mobina Jaffer introduced the bill in December 2015, shortly after the Liberals won the federal election and less than six months after the previous Conservative government passed the so-called “Zero Tolerance for Barbaric Cultural Practices Act” into law. In a speech introducing her bill — which does nothing more than remove the title of that law — Jaffer said the use of the term “barbaric” is “insulting to cultures in Canada.”... This isn’t the first time a politician has taken issue with such language. When he was a backbench MP in 2011, now-prime minister Justin Trudeau made headlines for challenging the Conservative government’s use of the term in Canada’s citizenship guide, arguing the use of the term “barbaric” to describe “cultural practices” was not neutral enough."
From 2017. I guess since all cultures are equal (except for Western culture), we need to blame the West for everything

"I have always disagreed with this characterization. The difference is documentation. Europe wrote down how they built stuff and it was all pretty plausible. We know its documentation problem because structures like stone henge also get the alien treatment and until recently Roman cement"
Damn racism against the Celts who built Stonehenge! We know that the British Isles were Black before they were British so this is proof of anti-Black racism.

Here’s a black girl at my college wishing the “worse for me” because I said I’m tired of black people mugging my classmates."
Meme - Daniel Schmidt: "At my college, the University of Chicago, it's inevitable that black people will mug students at gunpoint this school year-because it happens every year. Last year more than a dozen students were mugged. One student had a gun pointed at her head while walking on campus at 3.00 PM. You may have seen the video below back in April. I'm starting my senior year in a few days. When I began college I tried to ignore all of this... I just wanted to be a finance bro... But then an Asian student was killed by a black person one month into my freshman year and it dawned on me: Is the modern American Dream just trying to live far away from black people? That's why investment bankers work 18-hour days? That's the end game?"
"so are you gonna let him graduate??? @uchicago"
"This guy needs to realize that his problems in life and in America are not because of black people, especially the Black Residents of SouthSide and the Black Students at UChicago. He needs to realize that him trying to weaponize his whiteness won't ever erase the fact that he is not in the 1%. He has been a nuisance and disgrace since his admission into @uchicago and the university needs to finally do something about his blatant hate speech because while this statement hasn't incited disturbances on campus yet, his racist rhetoric and hatred towards the black community has the potential to. He represents the obstacles black people have to go through to truly have their modern American dream. He represents white America's identity politics and how it always places a target on black peoples head. He reminds me of the parents of my classmates growing up that dubbed me and my sister "the good black kids" or the family members that make comments about black on black crime during BLM protests. His continual racist rhetoric resents the American dream that was never meant for me. That will never be meant for my descendants. That was never meant for any black person in America. I truly wish him the worse and I hope he realizes he will never have the American Dream because he is truly a disgrace to what it means to be American. Reminder: To all the white students that see these comments and decide not to do or say any thing, remember you are not an ally and you are not anti racest. You are another part of the white moderate that oppress black voices throughout the past, future, and present of our country. I truly wish the worse for him and his racist ideologies and anyone who defends him."

'Anti-racist' doctors would put social justice over medical expertise - "A working group under the auspices of the Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons of Canada believes training future doctors should concentrate more on social justice and anti-racism than “medical expertise.” The idea was proposed by an anti-racism expert working group as a potential addition to CanMEDS, the framework for physician training slated for renewal in 2025. If implemented, it would elevate what is increasingly a destructive, divisive Marxist ideology over the Enlightenment ideals of science and reason. As Dr. David Jacobs, president of the Ontario Association of Radiologists, tweeted so succinctly of the idea, “This is bonkers.” CanMEDS is implemented throughout Canada by a consortium that includes the Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons of Canada, the College of Family Physicians of Canada, the Canadian Medical Association, the Medical Council of Canada and the Quebec College of Physicians, among others. In its report, the anti-racism working group says it believes the 2025 framework for training future physicians “affords us the opportunity to think critically and propose a vision for the practice of medicine which is rooted in social justice, anti-racism, anti-oppression and cultural safety, promoting a broader cultural shift which is necessary for the profession.” The medical profession and health system commit “structural violence” against marginalized people, according to the anti-racism working group’s report. Its authors proposed a disturbing social justice solution within the health system. “A new model of CanMEDS would seek to centre values such as anti-oppression, anti-racism and social justice, rather than medical expertise,” it said. One section of the report, titled “De-centering medical expertise,” called for a shift away from medical expertise to values such as anti-racism, anti-oppression, shared humanity and the ever more ubiquitous concept of decolonization. The new system envisioned by the working group “would prioritize bidirectional relationships with patients, providers, communities, the land, the health system and society at large rather than the individual physician as a gatekeeper of professionalized knowledge. With this new model, we can reflect a stance of humility over hubris.” How does one prioritize a bidirectional relationship with the land? Regardless, the “humility over hubris” line signals the virtue of the caring and compassionate working group over all those haughty, prideful colleagues. The report also included a section calling for recognition that the present had been impacted by historical power structures such as “white supremacy, heteropatriarchy and capitalism.”... Jacobs said DEI was a divisive ideology that painted people as either victims or oppressors in order to rebalance power which focuses on “social justice and equity of outcomes as opposed to empathy and excellence of outcomes.” Before DEI, the goal in training doctors was to be kind and competent, but with DEI, doctors are also being “tested for ‘purity of thought.’” The DEI movement has now infected most of Canada’s universities, government institutions and schools. Should anyone stand up to this “progressive” movement the results can be devastating. During one DEI training session in 2021, Toronto school principal Richard Bilkszto spoke out against an instructor’s claims that Canada was more racist than the United States. He experienced bullying and required medical leave as a result. Earlier this year, Bilkszto took his own life. The danger of a small group of activists controlling what people should or shouldn’t think is not lost on Jacobs. “Beyond the obvious worrisome impact on patients, there is also an impact on physicians’ freedom of expression and thought,” he said in his statement. “(DEI) is governed and policed by a small unelected and unaccountable group that is using the authority of universities and medical governing bodies to establish what is acceptable and what is unacceptable thought.” Medicine should return to embracing respect and partnership with patients, Jacobs said, and “strongly reject those who would try to weave their political and social agenda into the doctor-patient relationship.” The halls of academia appear to have long fallen to the charlatans of DEI, but if the medical establishment has also succumbed then we are all in for a taste of bad medicine."
Alladdin on X - "🚨So when this filth @mehdirhasan , He received his U.S. citizenship at the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia in 2020. U.S. citizenship courts began allowing Muslims to waive part of the oath because it conflicts with their beliefs. He requested to waive a portion of the oath, specifically: "and laws of the United States of America against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; that I will bear arms on behalf of the United States when required by the law; that I will perform noncombatant service in the Armed Forces of the United States when required by the law; that I will perform work of national importance under civilian direction when required by the law." Below is the full oath that you have to take. "I hereby declare, on oath, that I absolutely and entirely renounce and abjure all allegiance and fidelity to any foreign prince, potentate, state, or sovereignty, of whom or which I have heretofore been a subject or citizen; that I will support and defend the Constitution and laws of the United States of America against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; that I will bear arms on behalf of the United States when required by the law; that I will perform noncombatant service in the Armed Forces of the United States when required by the law; that I will perform work of national importance under civilian direction when required by the law; and that I take this obligation freely, without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion; so help me God."

Truly astonishing that someone would willfully immigrate to a bad place so they can complain and attack the local populace. This guy is an invader. A colonizer, even. It’s a disgrace that he was ever granted US citizenship. Like dude, why are you even here? Forget the Middle East, you have Islamic prayer calls, free healthcare, and migrants raping kids in the UK already. Should be your paradise. Go home, idiot."

The tyranny of the crybully - spiked - "The politics of victimhood has been with us for some time now. And like wokery, rather than showing signs of dying out, it looks like it’s here to stay. Indeed, when it comes to a stance that combines self-pity, mawkishness, grievance and a thirst for vengeance, victimhood politics appears in ruder health than ever... at Glastonbury festival this summer, where the meaning of the Palestinian flag became palpable: it now serves to demonstrate that you support victims against oppressors, the weak against the strong, good against evil. That’s why the assembled multitudes saw nothing wrong with chanting Jew-killing slogans, such as ‘Death, death to the IDF’. They were on the side of the angels against the perpetrators of ‘genocide’. The Palestinian flag is now the global symbol of the victim. Victimhood is much sought-after for good reasons. Nothing can gainsay the righteous fury of the victim who suffers – the victim who has right on his side and whose every response and deed can therefore be permitted. The victim feels wronged by an unjust and cruel world and we must feel his pain. Those who question the motives of the victim can be angrily dismissed as cruel, heartless or accomplices of the oppressors themselves. Nothing can satiate the thirst for vengeance the victim gleefully seeks. Armed with self-righteousness, the victim can behave as he pleases, harassing and threatening others while protesting it is he who is under attack. The victimhood activist today is personified in the figure of the crybully – a term coined by Julie Burchill. It’s a seductive mindset and unbeatable formula, which is why we’ve seen it in all its gruesomeness in recent years. The dubious #MeToo movement of the past decade was allowed to gain traction because no one dared oppose or doubt the claimants seeking recompense against their transgressors. The belligerent self-righteousness of the Black Lives Matter movement was of a similar ilk and was indulged for the same reasons. Radical trans activists, as Graham Linehan knows only too well, made great political advances by portraying themselves as persecuted martyrs who just wanted to ‘be nice’ and stop kids from killing themselves. And it’s going on right now in Britain in its most egregious and cunning form, with attempts to define and encode ‘Islamophobia’, a term that seeks to shield any criticism of Islam or Muslims by ringfencing each under the category ‘persecuted and oppressed’... None of this is particularly new. Much of the philosophy of Friedrich Nietzsche centred on the self-righteousness of the persecuted and the psychology of resentment. Writing in 1888 of the desire for ‘justice’ (that is, vengeance) then preached by many Christians and socialists, he concluded: ‘What is common to both, and unworthy in both, is that someone has to be to blame for the fact that one suffers – in short, that the sufferer prescribes for himself the honey of revenge as a medicine for his suffering… this thirst for revenge as a thirst for pleasure.’
Are lawyers free to speak their minds? - spiked - "British barrister Jon Holbrook was investigated last year by the Bar Standards Board (BSB) over a series of social-media posts. It decided that one of the 18 tweets in question – 17 were thrown out – constituted a breach of professional conduct. Having already been thrown out of his chambers, he was sanctioned by the BSB and fined £500. So what exactly did Holbrook tweet that was deemed so offensive? In October 2020, he responded to a journalist calling for French satirical magazine Charlie Hebdo to be shut down – this was on the day after French teacher Samuel Paty had been beheaded by an Islamist in the suburbs of Paris for showing a cartoon of Muhammad during a lesson on free speech. ‘Free speech is dying and Islamists and other Muslims are playing a central role’, Holbrook wrote. ‘Who will lead the struggle to reinstate free speech as the foundation of all other freedoms?’ This was seemingly too much for the Bar Standards Board. It ruled that Holbrook’s tweet would ‘not only cause offence but could promote hostility to Muslims as a group’, and that an ‘ordinary reasonable reader’ would ‘understand the tweet to mean that the Muslim community was to blame for curtailing free speech’... The Bar Tribunals and Adjudication Service (BTAS) ruled in Holbrook’s favour and ordered his fine to be refunded. This is very good news... In a democratic and free society, people must be able to express their opinions without facing punitive actions from employers or regulators who disagree with them. The freedom to speak freely without fear of losing one’s job is a fundamental right. At the Free Speech Union, where I am deputy research director, we see countless cases where people have been punished by employers or regulators simply for having different views. This shows the extent to which our right to free expression is being eroded on a daily basis."
