Deleting political accounts

dimanche 7 janvier 2018 à 01:00

Twitter will allow the bully to do bullying on Twitter no matter how vicious it gets.

Facebook Declines to Say Why It Deletes Certain Political Accounts, But Not Others.

Asking companies to censor based on some criterion is inherently problematical.

Christian morality

A Christian rebuke to the Christians that support the bully.

Not being a Christian, I don't recognize the biblical citations, and I don't need to find a basis in Christianity for my judgment of them, or him.

However, there is a substantial commonality between my Secular Humanist morality and Christian morality. The main difference is that Christians treat sex differently from everything else, whereas I apply to sex the same moral ideas I apply to the rest of life.

Election rigging

dimanche 7 janvier 2018 à 01:00

New Hampshire Republicans are trying to enact a voter-ID law and ban students at school there.

Republicans in Indiana have seized permanent control despite the voters through gerrymandering.

Republicans have made rigging elections their standard method.

Tax on oil companies

dimanche 7 janvier 2018 à 01:00

Republicans cancelled the special tax on oil companies to raise funds for cleaning up oil spills.

Preparing to annex

dimanche 7 janvier 2018 à 01:00

Israel is preparing to annex large areas of Palestinian territory which have been colonized with Israelis.

The bill would declare those areas to be part of Jerusalem, which implies taking them away from Palestine.

Of course, many of us figured this was the intended final step, the reason for establishing the colonies in the first place.

Since such annexation violates international law, many countries will refuse to recognize it. Nonetheless, some important countries ruled by corrupt nincompoops might recognize it, which would advance the process of ethnic cleansing of Palestinians.

Israel will surely accuse those who criticize this land grab as "antisemitic", but that is calumny. The issue has nothing to do with whether anyone is or isn't Jewish.
