Get in line, sheep!

One wonders who is running countries around the world: Democratically elected politicians or Big Pharma execs?

Even worse than only 7.73% of Israel citizens being “fully” vaccinated, it’s also clear that 0.0% are protected against Monkeypox! Is it not long overdue that every citizen should be forced to walk around with a diaper on the outside of their pants?!? Failure to comply with this should result in instant imprisonment in re-education camps!!! Join me, comrades, in shaming our politicians on social media to make this a law by the end of this weekend!

It’s Friday On Turtle Island

Woke Britain:  Don’t upset the Muslims.  Woke American influence coming to Britain?  Views you won’t find at the CBC.

Biden’s America:  Drag Queen Church.  The Kamala Harris prosecution of a pro life journalist.  Woke Harvard University.  Another day, another Hunter Biden story.  The week in whoppers.  And shame of the nation.

Trudeau’s Canada:  Well, I guess it will prepare them for careers as church arsonists. Teachers give up books for bonfires.  Justin’s loyal Globe and Mail blames Poilievre for dangerous rage against Trudeau.  Liberal government apologizes for giving land to veterans.

We are all going to die from global warming news:  More Dutch farmer protests.  Your morning meme.

 

“Democratize”

What the heck does that word even mean anymore?

Year of the Graves

Excellent podcast here. Glavin does a terrific job of putting everything in both the historical and current context.

Quillette- Canada’s Unmarked Graves, How the Media Got It Wrong

Quillette podcast host Jonathan Kay talks to National Post reporter Terry Glavin about the blockbuster 2021 claim that hundreds of murdered Indigenous children had been found in unmarked graves, the process by which that story began to unravel in the year that followed, and what the whole spectacle tells us about Canada’s intellectual class.

Lionel Shriver, on why she won’t be getting any more Covid jabs

This is an important interview.

First off, Lionel Shriver is a super intelligent woman. Like Jordan Peterson, and other intellectuals, she believed what the public health officials were telling all of us. So she got 3 jabs.

I’ve long said that I support everyone who decided to get the jab. This includes my 90 year old mother. From near the beginning, I came to the conclusion that Lionel Shriver is coming to now. Let’s hope more people see the light.

Here is her recent article.

Down The Primrose Path

From a kooky little site called Amnesty International.

Ukrainian forces have put civilians in harm’s way by establishing bases and operating weapons systems in populated residential areas, including in schools and hospitals, as they repelled the Russian invasion that began in February, Amnesty International said today.

Such tactics violate international humanitarian law and endanger civilians, as they turn civilian objects into military targets. The ensuing Russian strikes in populated areas have killed civilians and destroyed civilian infrastructure.

“We have documented a pattern of Ukrainian forces putting civilians at risk and violating the laws of war when they operate in populated areas,” said Agnès Callamard, Amnesty International’s Secretary General.

“Being in a defensive position does not exempt the Ukrainian military from respecting international humanitarian law.”

Addendum. 93 comments — seems like this hit a nerve?

Amazon shrinks workforce by 100,000 as hiring freezes and layoffs hit the tech sector

With recession fears mounting — and inflation, the war in Ukraine and the lingering pandemic taking a toll — many tech companies are rethinking their staffing needs, with some of them instituting hiring freezes, rescinding offers and making rounds of layoffs.

Amazon.com Inc. was one of the latest company to discuss its belt-tightening efforts this week. During its quarterly earnings call Thursday, the e-commerce giant said it’s been adding jobs at the slowest rate since 2019. After relying on attrition to winnow its staff, Amazon now has about 100,000 fewer employees than in the previous quarter.

Related: Americans opened 233 million new credit card accounts in the April-June period, the most since 2008.

Rasmussen Reports: 62% now believe that the economy is in recession, including nearly half of Democrats.
