Las Vegas massacre

samedi 28 octobre 2017 à 02:00

Right-wingers have deluded each other into believing the Las Vegas massacre was a hoax.

Now they are sending the victims threatening letters, hoping I suppose to intimidate them into a silence that will aid the campaign to impose the delusion.

You can support the victims by campaigning for universal medical care in the US.

Nobody who is injured or sick should have to beg on GoFundMe to pay for medical care!

Albert Einstein

samedi 28 octobre 2017 à 02:00

Albert Einstein: “The word God is for me nothing more than the expression and product of human weakness.”

Einstein occasionally made statements that used the word “god” to mean something like, “whatever circumstances brought about the universe as it is”.

This metaphor was apparently ill-advised, since people cite those statements to claim him as a religious believer, which he never was.

Anti-terror laws

samedi 28 octobre 2017 à 02:00

The UK's “anti-terror” laws have been repeatedly used against protesters and dissidents, revealing that government as repressive.

A British columnist's British sister was just bullied into testifying against herself and everyone she knows, on pain of imprisonment.

The conviction of human rights activist Muhammad Rabbani of Cage, who heroically faced imprisonment by refusing to tell the thugs anything, does not seem to have raised a big scandal.

Maybe this instance will create the scandal needed to end this repressive practice in Britain.

Although terrorism does exist in the UK, in the long term it is less of a danger to Britons than repressive, unjust laws such as this one.

Promoting homosexuality

samedi 28 octobre 2017 à 02:00

A group of activists and lawyers in Tanzania met to consider challenging laws to repress homosexuals, and they were arrested for “promoting homosexuality”.

This means the government of Tanzania is attacking Tanzanian democracy as well as gays.

Music parasite companies

Leaked: These 3 EU Governments Want to Give Record Labels Control Over What We Can And Can't Post Online.

(They are France, Spain and Portugal.)

I urge Europeans to launch a campaign of condemnation of the music parasite companies, as well as a campaign to convince officials.
