“There’s only one rule that I know of, babies- God damn it, you’ve got to be kind.” - Kurt Vonnegut “Man shows inhumanity to Man. It’s axiomatic of our existence. It’s the story of our past, it’s the story of our present, and it will very likely be the story of our future. Indeed, it’s a story that’s reinforced every day, whether we’re watching the evening news or the latest entry in the “Saw” series.

Twitter loves the Chinese tyrants whose lies created the pandemic but they hate Trump
Contrary to the unfactchecked posts by senior Chinese government leadership we all know that the mass murdering Chinese government lied about the nature of the China virus which led to the current pandemic. China new in December that the virus spread from person to person and yet the only steps that the fascist regime took was to intimidate and threaten the doctors who were telling the truth. If China had acted just 3 weeks sooner the number of cases in China could have been as much as 95% lower. If China had done that there probably wouldn't have been a pandemic.

Planned Parenthood has admitted under oath to selling baby parts
In sworn videoed testimony Planned Parenthood officials admitted that they were paid $55 per usable organ. That's important because it contradicts the PP claim that they were only reimbursed for transportation and harvesting costs. If that were the case then they would be paid whether or not the organs were "usable". The fact that they were only paid when their product, organs from aborted babies, met certain quality standards means that they were being paid for a product. The video testimony also shows that PP switched which company it sold baby body parts to because the new compa... more »

IMITATIONS OF DISCOURSE: Did Joe Biden commit a gaffe?
*THURSDAY, MAY 28, 2020Are more such vile comments to come?:* In this morning's New York Times, a letter writer in Los Angeles discusses Joe Biden's alleged gaffe. The New York Times published his letter. The writer is a recent graduate of the law school at the University of the Pacific. We're sure that he's a good, decent person—but his letter helps us contemplate the logic of modern gaffe culture: LETTER TO THE NEW YORK TIMES (5/28/20): How does The New York Times decide which offensive comments made by presidential candidates are worth writing full articles about? *Joe Biden’s... more »

Where does love go to die?
Question for you. Where does love go to die? Does it just end up in a graveyard of documents, with bank records, divorce papers and junior high yearbooks? Our son who died at 51 on April 21 had most of his life and memories packed into 8 cardboard "banker's boxes," which I've been going through. All neatly labeled. Lose papers in file folders. They were in a closet with his grandpa's fishing vest and pipe rack, and Christmas decorations which he didn't use in 2019 because he was mad at God. His friend Keith helped me bring them to our house and I've been sorting and pitching. La... more »

The Volleys Of An Information War Against China

No, Small Employers Are Not Exempt from CARES Act Leave
I'm hearing about lots of employers with fewer than 50 employees claiming that it is their choice whether to grant CARES Act emergency sick leave or FMLA. That is simply incorrect. Employers with fewer than 500 employees have to comply with the CARES Act leave requirements. However, there are some exemptions allowed to employers with fewer than 50 employees that aren't given to larger employers. Per the Department of Labor, in order to deny CARES Act sick leave or FMLA, the employer must be able to prove: (1) Such leave would cause the small employer's expenses and financial obliga... more »

Look before you leap
Just over an hour ago I spotted a tweet from someone citing a *Telegraph* headline saying that Durham Police have ruled that Dominic Cummings DID breach lockdown rules. It looked damning, the final nail in Mr Cummings's coffin. Naturally, being almost as obsessive as a *Newsnight* reporter with a bee in his bonnet, I checked Lewis Goodall's Twitter feed to see how soon he'd bite. He bit very soon. He was onto in a flash. At just after 1pm he put out at least two tweets asserting that he and Emily Maitlis had been proved right, linking in his second tweet to his own Tuesday repor... more »
Twitter's censors have finally made Trump angry
Many of us were often shocked by the censorship that the Silicon Valley companies seem to enforce globally. Donald Trump has sort of agreed with us but it seemed obvious that he wouldn't ever act. Well, I think that it is no longer so obvious. What was needed was some harm done to Trump's ego; he needed to be personally absorbed into this fight. Well, two days ago, Twitter introduced a new policy: it decided to label politically inconvenient messages by disparaging labels. And it has quickly tried this new policy against the most popular victim of this harassment, the U.S. president... more »

MacIntyre’s Rightwing Postmodernism
Postmodernism is generally leftwing, but, in his 1981 book *After Virtue*, Alasdair MacIntyre articulates a rightwing form of postmodernism in which there is an emphasis on the importance of traditions. MacIntyre’s traditions perform a role similar to the “scientific paradigms,” which Thomas Kuhn has described—the traditions include the idea of a worldview or conceptual scheme, and also a history through time, as it’s understood by a community with its distinctive way of life and social norms. The traditions are not only capable of being rational but serve as the context in which ra... more »

We Should Be Grateful
Stephen Harper, Andrew Cohen writes, hasn't changed. Even though he has been out of office for four-and-a-half years, but he can still draw a crowd of conservatives and a chorus of critics. And nurse a hell of a grudge. No one says former Canadian prime ministers must gently fade away, once the way of American presidents. What we do expect, though, is a measure of honesty, generosity and self-reflection. Harper offers none of that. He is elder but no statesman; he has second thoughts without sobriety. He cannot help himself. An interview Harper did with the American conservative... more »

*Warfare History Network* *History, Americas* [image: Two U.S. Navy Douglas SBD-5] "Navy planes take a beating." World War II gave us many stories of aerial warfare, men and their machines fighting their way to victory and glory in the name of humanity. However romantic such a notion may be, World War II was the first in which airpower actually won battles, decided the outcome of campaigns, and ultimately the course of the conflict itself. That victory came about as a result of Allied airmen dropping ordnance onto the most important things the Axis countries owned, turning them ... more »
Five Films That Explore What It Feels Like to Truly Grieve
*Jimmy Hay* *Entertainment, * Rather than approach grief in purely narrative terms, these films try to convey it through empathetic aesthetics. Grief is a common theme in cinema, it provides emotional, character-focused situations that for many viewers are instantly familiar. Most of us know what the characters on screen are going through, we understand the disorientating swell of feelings and acute sense of loss that the actors articulate and perform because we are more than likely to have experienced them ourselves. This familiarity leads many films to approach grief in purely... more »

Softening Up Americans for Forced Vaccination
One issue that has many of us concerned is the prospect of mandatory vaccinations as a solution to ending the COVID-19 pandemic, particularly since the testing process for a never-before-discovered coronavirus vaccine seems to be taking place at a greatly accelerated rate.

*Media Champions Fake ‘Climate’ Death Certificates* Five college employees in Australia published a letter in the medical journal Lancet demanding medical doctors list climate factors like heat more often as a person’s cause of death. The authors observed that death certificates don’t reflect as many climate-caused deaths as their models and predictions suggested, so medical doctors should begin listing heat and other climate factors on the death certificates of people who died from other reasons. And Lancet published the letter. And the media are promoting the effort. “Climate ch... more »
