EU waste on pro-Islam projects: €1.6 million to study the hair of Muslim women : r/europe_sub - "The allegation comes from Silvia Sardone, deputy secretary of the League party: “I discovered that Brussels is throwing away almost two million euros of taxpayers’ money.” A flood of pro-Islam European funding? We are talking about €1.6 million allocated to a research project on the hair of Muslim women. The allegation comes from Silvia Sardone, deputy secretary of the League party: “I discovered that Brussels is throwing away almost two million euros of taxpayers’ money to study ‘hair, identity, beauty and personal identity in the Muslim context: emotional landscapes and evolving femininity beyond the veil’.” The project is reportedly being carried out by Ghent University in Belgium and analyzes how the hair of Muslim women influences everyday life. “This is yet another demonstration of the vast gap between the priorities of European citizens and the ideological obsessions of the European Commission.” But there is more: according to Sardone’s claims, over €3 million would also be allocated to projects with titles such as “Sustainable alliances against anti-Muslim hatred,” “A model towards a non-discriminatory culture,” and “Reporting and documenting anti-Muslim racism.” She adds that “in Italy, a project has even been funded to ‘address the underestimation of hate speech against Muslim women.’ In practice, public money is being given to associations and academic institutions to tell us what we can or cannot say about Islamism and immigration, turning any legitimate criticism into ‘hate’ and putting freedom of expression under accusation. Moreover, nothing is being done about anti-Christian hatred, which is growing worldwide. It is time to say stop to this pro-Islam ideological madness funded with taxpayers’ money. I have been denouncing these wastes for some time: in the past I reported the €10 million allocated to university projects on the so-called ‘European Quran’ and the €17 million for initiatives linked to Islam, sharia, and Islamic culture and traditions.” “Enough with this cultural subservience. The priorities must be support for families, citizens’ security, and the competitiveness of businesses—not projects on hair ‘beyond the veil’ and campaigns to silence those who defend European identity.”"
Steve Sailer: Still noticing after all these years - "Sailer was more than a provocateur; he was a serious thinker. Wrestling with his writings made us more knowledgeable and more aware of important subterranean ideas. (As Sailer has noted, many of these ideas are mainstream in academia if you translate the deceptive nomenclature of journal articles into ordinary language.) Sailer’s influence on me was more profound even than it was on my fellow dissidents because I was so impressed with his candor that I decided to write about race publicly. At first—and I owe Steve an apology for my cowardice—I kept my distance and never cited him. Writing about race was one thing, citing Steve Sailer was another. As Steve himself has written, “…people who don’t know me tend to hate me.” (Conversely, people who know Steve, like him.) I wanted to write honestly about race, but I also wanted to keep my job in academia; and I worried that Sailer was so blunt and alienating that citing him was a guilt-by-association gift to enemies of honesty and open inquiry. As it turned out, I was not wrong. One of the sins I was accused of before getting fired was liking a tweet by Steve Sailer. I explained that I thought that the tweet was interesting and that I believed in the importance of dialogue and debate. Maybe I could encourage debate in a different way my boss responded... I strive for intellectual transparency and honesty. If somebody asks my opinion about something, I will forward it, with appropriate caveats about human fallibility. And in that, Steve Sailer’s influence was enormous, along with Arthur Jensen and Charles Murray...
Noticing that journalists are verbally tilted and think words are like magic: “IQ is off-limits today because people who are verbally facile, such as journalists and academics, tend to assume that reality is largely constructed from words. Thus, if we would all just stop writing about unpleasant facts, they would disappear.”
Noticing that public intellectuals won’t grapple with important topics: “Indeed, trying to figure out how nature and nurture intertwine in modern America is one of the great challenges of the examined life. Public intellectuals should try it. It’s fun.”
Noticing that white intellectuals are hypocritical about IQ: “The typical white intellectual considers himself superior to ordinary white folks for two contradictory reasons. First, he constantly proclaims his belief in human equality, but they don’t. Second, he has a high IQ, but they don’t.”
Noticing that neoconservative ideas about citizenship are not entirely sensible: “If believing in neoconservative theories should make anyone in the world eligible for immigration, what should disbelieving them make thought criminals like you and me? Candidates for deportation? For the guillotine?”
Noticing that blacks fear blacks too: “In other words, the two black men racially profiled each other as dangerous criminals and then violently attacked each other. Why did the two blacks profile each other? Oh, sorry, I forgot: because white people. Wait, my mistake: because people who believe they are white. Occam’s razor suggests that the reason blacks tend to fear violence from one another is because they tend to be violent.”
But the thing that really struck me after reading Noticing is that Sailer cares more about the plight of black Americans than many of the white progressives who denounce him. While they ostentatiously display their commitment to racial justice by chastising anybody who talks honestly about the causes of racial disparities in the West, he writes incisively about the problems that plague black America. At times, his candor can seem harsh: “American blacks had a hard enough time competing with American whites. Putting them up against ever more of the cleverest and most ambitious of four billion Asians is increasingly a wipe-out.” Or “For instance, the fact that African-Americans seem to have a particular tendency toward criminal violence, for whatever combinations of reasons of nature and nurture, suggests that they need law enforcement more, not less, than do the rest of us.”... Sailer is not gratuitously rude. Rather, he is brutally honest. Unsurprisingly, I agree with him, “…the truth is better for us than ignorance, lies, or wishful thinking.” Exactly. Because well-meaning lies are still lies just as sweetened poison is still poison. And as the post-Floyd homicide spike illustrated, lies about black Americans can lead to dead Americans. If policy makers listened more to Sailer and less to preening white liberals, thousands of black men and women who were killed from 2014-2024 might still be alive today: “As I may have mentioned once or twice over the past year, the media-declared ‘racial reckoning’ following the death of George Floyd on May 25, 2020, has been getting a lot of blacks murdered by other blacks. But I am not being ironic in saying that I am now stunned to find out that motor vehicle fatalities among blacks similarly soared 36% in June-December 2020 versus the same period in 2019, compared with a 9% increase in the rest of the population.” “Well, we’ve since tried telling blacks that they are morally better than whites. How’s that working out for all concerned.”
What is more, Sailer shows real regard for his fellow Americans (of all races), promoting a view that he calls citizenism, which “affirms that true patriots and idealists are willing to make sacrifices for the overall good of their fellow American citizens rather than for the advantage of either six billion foreigners or of the special interests within our own country.”"

Thread by @arctotherium42 on Thread Reader App – Thread Reader App - "Thread with excerpts from the 1976 essay "On Meritocracy and Equality." I want to clear up some misconceptions around the idea of "meritocracy." The word was initially coined as a *pejorative* in 1958 to describe presently-existing Anglo-American society.
What characterized WWII and postwar Anglo-American society that made the word "meritocracy" appropriate? That talent (as measured by heavily genetic IQ) and technical skill, rather than hereditary privilege or some other mechanism, led to status and wealth. But by 1976, this had already been successfully attacked and overthrown by the New Left/Civil Rights state, which replaced talent with hereditary privilege (race, sex) as the ideal arbiter of status. This is fairly close to what had been predicted by the essay that coined the term meritocracy, which foresaw "Populists" rebelling against the principle of merit in favor of equality and helping "each person develop his own diverse capacities" (think multiple intelligences). This successful 1960s attack on meritocracy in the form of affirmative action/Civil Rights *overthrew* the liberal individualist position that someone's place should not be based on their group attributes.
In the 18th century, many institutions, such as the army and the Church and land ownership, required hereditary privilege to access. This principle was replaced with the principle of achievement in the 19th/20th. *And then achievement was replaced again in the 1960s*.
Various New Left attacks on meritocracy:
1) More status because you are better because of genetic gifts is unfair (Rawlsian)
2) Pure meritocracy is impossible
3) Social mobility is basically luck
4) Meritocracy makes society overly competitive
5) Meritocracy creates inequality
The author, Daniel Bell, traces this destruction of democracy to the failure of the mainstream Civil Rights movement, premised on the idea that equality of opportunity would lead to equality of results, a decade earlier with the 1966 Coleman Report. New Lefties re-invented John Calhoun's doctrine of the "concurrent majority," saying blacks shouldn't be counted equally to whites because as a minority they could never get what they wanted that way, and needed special privileges. This is the logic behind the VRA. According to John Rawls, natural advantages (like being smarter or better looking) are as arbitrary as social ones (like being nobility), and the *only* justification for rewarding talent is if doing so helps the non-talented even more.
This represents the end of liberalism. The liberal ideal was to set no prescriptive ends, simply a set of procedural rules, and to let things work out as they may. The New Left overthrew and destroyed this in favor of redress for "disadvantaged groups" as the basis of society. This should be seen, in my view, as a sort of "de-modernization" process. Rather than individuals equal under the law, we've returned to an ancien-regime like system of group representation, rights, and privileges, millets or estates or "communities" rather than citizens.
Why write this thread? You often see attacks on "meritocracy" or "individualism" as too prevalent in 21st century America. This is like criticisms of "white supremacy" or "patriarchy" - all were overthrown 60 years ago by the New Left and attacking them today is playing pretend. NLSY data backs this up. For example, the correlation between income percentile and IQ dropped between NLSY79 cohort (born 1957-64) and the NLSY97 cohort (born 1980-1984), and this is after the destruction of meritocracy/liberalism began.
It drives me mad to see people playacting as though we are still in the 1950s. Here is a link to the 1976 essay I excerpted all of this from; I recommend reading the whole thing (only 40 pages). nationalaffairs.com/storage/app/up…"
arctotherium on X - "1960s New Leftists successfully de-modernized the West, breaking centuries-long trends towards citizens equal under the law in favor of group privileges, and they managed to do all this while inverting the meaning of the word "liberal," which used to mean the opposite."
(PDF) Blue Hair and the Blues: Dying Your Hair Unnatural Colours is Associated with Depression - "A number of lines of evidence, such as studies of religious converts and members of conspicuous subcultures, have found a relationship between holding and expressing a strong counter-cultural identity and mental instability. Here we test whether dying your hair an unnatural colour - something which conspicuously expresses non-conformity - is related to mental instability, using a large dataset of online daters (OKCupid dataset, about n=14k used in this study). We find the expected pattern, which was moderate in size (p = -033 to -0.23, depending on controls). This pattern persisted even when controls for age, race, sex, sexual orientation, body type, intelligence, polyamory, vegetarianism, and political beliefs were included."
Left wingers still claim that it's meant to warn predators and doesn't mean the individual is toxic
Janet Elaine Parks | Facebook - "🇺🇸 THE LEFT DIDN’T JUST CHANGE …IT ABANDONED WHAT LIBERALISM USED TO STAND FOR… Let’s talk about history …and contrast.. Modern progressives like to pretend conservatism “radicalized.” But the uncomfortable truth is this: 👉 The Left walked away from its own principles… And the receipts are everywhere…
WHAT LIBERALISM USED TO DEFEND..
🗣️ Free Speech — Even When It Was Offensive For decades, classical liberals believed free speech only mattered when it protected speech you disliked… The American Civil Liberties Union famously defended the right of Nazis to march in Skokie, Illinois (1977)… Not because they agreed… but because they understood that speech rights don’t survive once they become conditional…
Today, many on the Left openly support:
• deplatforming
• speech policing
• censorship in the name of “harm reduction”
Even to the point of assassinating 31 year old man for speech they hated…
That is not liberalism…. That is control…
Due Process & Civil Liberties..
From the 1960s through the early 2000s, liberals:
• opposed unchecked federal power
• warned against surveillance states
• defended presumption of innocence
After 9/11, the Left vocally opposed the Patriot Act…arguing that security without liberty is tyranny… Today? The same movement excuses:
• warrantless surveillance
• emergency powers
• selective enforcement
• guilt by association
Due process is now optional …depending on who’s accused…
Skepticism of Government Power..
Even Barack Obama, while campaigning in 2008, criticized:
• executive overreach
• mass surveillance
• erosion of constitutional limits
Yet once in office, many of those programs expanded …and the modern Left largely stopped objecting… Government power stopped being “dangerous” and started being “necessary.”
WHAT THE MODERN LEFT DEFENDS NOW..
Censorship Over Debate.. Disagreement is no longer something to argue against… it’s something to silence… Dissenting views are framed as:
• misinformation and uneducated
• extremism
• violence
• threats to “democracy” a comment we hear time and time again from the left..
This is a direct rejection of liberal pluralism…
Selective Bodily Autonomy..
“My body, my choice” until it conflicts with government mandates… During the Pandemic :
• medical decisions were coerced
• livelihoods were threatened
• exemptions were dismissed
Autonomy became political …not principled…
Law Enforcement …Only When Convenient..
The Left once warned about federal overreach…
Now we see:
• demonization of ICE..
• open hostility toward law enforcement enforcing existing laws..
• growing riots and violence coming from people who don’t agree with ICE..
Yet the same voices demand aggressive enforcement when it aligns ideologically…
That isn’t justice….That’s selective morality.
Erosion of Parental Rights..
Classical liberalism defended:
• family autonomy
• parental authority
• limits on state intrusion
Today, parents who object to curricula, medical decisions, or ideology are labeled:
• extremists
• threats
• harmful
The state now knows better…apparently…
THE CORE SHIFT PEOPLE KEEP IGNORING..
Liberalism once assumed: Good people can disagree …and must be allowed to.
The modern Left assumes: Disagreement is dangerous and must be eliminated…
That is not progress….That is radicalization. Conservatives didn’t abandon liberal values… The Left did… and we see evidence of this everyday.
Free speech became conditional. Due process became selective. Government restraint became obsolete. Individual liberty became negotiable. Fascism labels from the very people demonstrating actual fascism… And when a movement abandons its own foundations in the name of “progress,” it doesn’t evolve… It becomes authoritarian.
You don’t have to agree with conservatives. But pretending today’s Left resembles the liberalism of the past is historically dishonest…
Faith. Family. Freedom."
Protests harm Sankofa Square’s ad sales and events business - "Corporate events at Sankofa Square plummeted by nearly 70 per cent last year as U.S. President Donald Trump's tariff regime and frequent protests combined to drain revenue from Toronto's premier public space. The downtown square hosted just 22 commercial events in 2025, down from 71 the previous year, according to city documents released as part of the 2026 budget process. The sharp decline has dealt a financial blow. The city’s revenue from event permits at Sankofa Square fell to $87,000 last year, down from $275,000 in 2024... The square has become a focal point for civic activism, hosting 40 protests and rallies in 2025, according to the city. The demonstrations "have impacted both commercial and community event clients," budget documents state. "A number of commercial clients packed up early and have indicated their reluctance to return with future activations." The combination of protests along with general safety concerns prompted officials to hire a manager of community safety who is tasked with working "alongside the staff team, suppliers and area partners to create a space that is welcoming, safe and builds trust in the public mind.""
Maybe the counter-productive renaming was a factor too
Abandoned by event planners, Sankofa Square bleeding money | Toronto Sun - "shortly after city council approved the name change in late 2023, the square’s management admitted to the Sun that the money set aside for the rebrand could’ve instead been spent on capital improvements to make the space safer. Julian Sleath, then the square’s general manager, told the Sun that $300,000 in Section 37 money, set aside for the public space, could’ve been spent on “security by environmental design” — presumably a one-time expense... More than 70% of respondents to a 2024 poll said they disapprove of the renaming. Even more striking is that Sankofa Square’s own research suggests the people who would put on events aren’t on board with the change either. Buried deep in a report released by Sankofa Square management in January 2025 are survey results that suggest few event producers agree the rebrand would “support and align with” their next event. Of the 39 event specialists polled, six said they were unsatisfied or very unsatisfied with the “current direction of the square,” while nine said they were neither satisfied nor unsatisfied. Six said they were very satisfied and 11 said they were somewhat satisfied. Seven did not answer the question."

The thing about the Christian-right is that they were child-focused, so their "influence" is only present in our minds is because it affected us as kids. For adults, the satanic panic was great. Because it caused such a fuss, there was a boom of pro-freedom properties, jokes, and fun. This was the golden age - the other half of the satanic panic. I actually welcome the Christian-right's return. I would rather someone tell their kids they can't play with a toy than some disturbed individual rewrite the lore I grew up on."
Plus, almost all the time, they just wanted their kids staying away from what they considered sinful - they didn't care if everyone else consumed those properties. So claiming the right invented cancel culture is wrong

Pam Grier Shares 'Hanging From Tree' Lynching Claim on The View - "Actress Pam Grier, who famously recalled in her 2010 memoir — "Foxy: My Life in Three Acts" — the time when her doctor asked if Richard Pryor had been dipping his penis in cocaine and then having sex with her, revealed today on ‘The View’ that she witnessed a lynched body hanging from a tree in Columbus, Ohio as a child... The lynching story just magically ends up on live television months after revealing she's in a "cosmic relationship" and she's "horny as f--k." But, there she was today on live TV telling us all about that lynching story she's been holding onto since she was a child. "My mom would go, 'don't look, don't look, don't look,' and she would pull us away because there's someone hanging from a tree," Grier told Whoopi, Sunny and the others. "And they have a memorial for it now where you can see where people were and left. And it triggers me today to see that a voice can be silenced and if a white family supported a black, they're going to get burned down or killed or lynched as well." OutKick reached out to the NAACP to get a reaction to Grier's claim and for any supporting evidence to support the claim. According to the Equal Justice Initiative, there has not been a single lynching documented in the history of Columbus, Ohio. Furthermore, America's Black Holocaust Museum lists the last documented lynching in Ohio as taking place in 1911. What road was Pam Grier on with her family when she saw the person hanging from a tree? Why hasn't she told this story before? And what is this memorial she's talking about? According to OutKick research, we're unable to find any record of a lynching in Columbus, Ohio in the early 1950s. Remember, Pam was born May 26, 1949... Did Sunny Hostin or Whoopi ask her why she never told that story? Of course not... in the book where Pam fails to tell us the lynching story, she tells the story about how she gave Richard Pryor oral sex and that's how cocaine ended up in her system. Via semen."
