Biden Angry

Biden Angry With Republicans Trying To Stop Kids Seeing Gay Porn: During a radio interview, Joe Biden expressed disbelief that Republicans have a problem with gay porn books being made available to children as young as six years old in schools across the country. “The idea that you can be told that you can’t read certain books. This is the United States of America, for God’s sake!” Biden stated.

пробы ставить негде

Пробы ставить негде (Интервью с главредом "Ланцета"):
Q: Hasn’t The Lancet also made some mistakes, like accepting a now retracted paper on using hydroxychloroquine to treat covid-19?

A: I don’t think we were at fault for accepting it. The paper passed through peer review. We took the paper, as did our reviewers, as being an accurate description of a piece of science. What peer review isn’t is a way to validate a piece of science. The only way you can validate a piece of science is by repeating the experiment.
вот еще видео интервью с врачами Dr. Simone Gold и Dr. Dan Wohlgelernter о пресловутом Hydroxychloroquine. если поискать фамилии этих врачей в google, можно узнать все, что требуется о свободе слова, цензуре и пропаганде.

Chronicle line

One day Jim Madison had me in to stand on the Kelly-green carpet which surrounded his desk like a pasture. "Jack," he said, "you know what the Chronicle line is in this election."

disappearing news

The Guardian publishes, then censors Jewish open letter defending smeared pro-Corbyn Labour MP Chris Williamson, и подтверждение: The story behind the Guardian’s deleted letter of Jewish support for Chris Williamson

а вот новостей с научного фронта: Gender Dissenter Gets Fired. ну как же, он shared his professional opinion on the medicalization of gender-confused youth, чего же он ожидал. держи свои дурацкие мнения при себе.

примерно за это самое выгнали Leana Wen, president of Planned Parenthood: Sorry, Men Can’t Get Pregnant. это - в чистом виде hate speech & shoddy science.

free speech

“I will be signing an executive order requiring colleges and universities to support free speech if they want federal research dollars” - @realDonaldTrump

wow

some people are skeptical about it though... and about Trump in general.

Kiss Before Dying


A Kiss Before Dying (1956) - это не Technicolor (это Color by Deluxe), но вполне мог бы быть, учитывая, как выражаются культурные люди, highly saturated colors. детали и подробности во множестве, даже производственная тема затронута (горнодобывающая, включая панорамы рудников, экскаваторы и самосвалы). сюжет - даже не нуар, а макабр в чистом виде, макбет нашего уезда в самой середке свободного мира. тут - еще картинки и текст.
Levin’s hard-hitting novel had to be toned down in one respect: the word ‘pregnant’ was cut out of the previews in Chicago and United Artists was not allowed by Hollywood censors to use the word in any advertising.

Mother of Fake News

‘Transparency’ is the Mother of Fake News - amazing article in nyt by one Stanley Fish

ok, not exactly amazing, considering adventures of the term fake news and what is going on with free speech on campuses and elsewhere over the last couple of years.

a few quotes
Fake news is in large part a product of the enthusiasm — not to say rage — for transparency and absolutely free speech.
...
silence and the withholding and sequestering of speech may be useful and even necessary in some contexts, like the preparing of a report or maintaining of a marriage.
that should be enough to get an idea of what it is all about. but here's more:
by itself information doesn’t do anything; its effects depend on the motives of those who make use of it, and raw information (that is, data) cannot distinguish between benign and malign appropriations of itself.
это почти по-лениниски. диалектика. см. Партийная организация и партийная литература.

one last quote:
That is the world of fake news. It is created by the undermining of trust in the traditional vehicles of authority and legitimation — major newspapers, professional associations, credentialed academics, standard encyclopedias, government bureaus, federal courts, prime-time nightly news anchors.
интересно, что Структуру научных революций Куна практически одновременно пнул некий Errol Morris в Boston Review: Is There Such a Thing as Truth?. открыт сезон охоты на Куна?

upd 06/30/18: в развитие темы fake news/free speech - How Free Speech Is Being Used as a Weapon by Conservatives: As a result, many on the left have traded an absolutist commitment to free speech for one sensitive to the harms it can inflict.

shut down Trump

Valerie Plame Wilson, a former CIA operations officer, has launched a campaign to raise money to buy a controlling interest in Twitter so she can shut down President Trump's account on the social media site. - The Hill

yellow dots

The problem is that most new printers print nearly invisibly yellow dots that track down exactly when and where documents, any document, is printed. Because the NSA logs all printing jobs on its printers, it can use this to match up precisely who printed the document. - How The Intercept Outed Reality Winner

miasma of liberal misdirection

The wars in Bosnia and Kosovo remain two of the most misinterpreted conflicts of the post-Cold War era, and Gibbs deserves credit for seeing through the miasma of liberal misdirection they have spawned. - Response by Scott Laderman, University of Minnesota, Duluth
refreshing
...US intervention in the civil war that erupted after newly unified Germany, with Austria and the Vatican in tow, moved to recognise the secession of economically most viable parts of the heavily indebted federation, Slovenia and Croatia. - Response by Kees van der Pijl, University of Sussex, Ibid.
[выделено мной - вс]

see also Response by David N. Gibbs, and the latest from him in HNN, Why the Srebrenica Massacre Should Not be Used as an Excuse for Intervention, вот с этого там все и началось.

впрочем, как в народе говорят, who gives a fuck.

интересно, что это единственный автор, ни одной книги которого нет в BCCLS, а искал я там многих.

звонок из обкома

а вот и команда из обкома поступила



И только небо засветилось,
Всё шумно вдруг зашевелилось
UPDATE 2-Netanyahu to Russia next week for talks on Syria - Israeli official, и далее со всеми остановками:
. Opinion: Syria's Bashar al-Assad: West is to blame for refugee crisis CNN
. In Depth: Assad says his priority is 'defeating terrorism' in Syria Chron.com
. Wikipedia: Russia's role in the Syrian Civil War
даже Wiki пристегнули для убедительности, бляди

ну и чтобы такие новости в дело пошли - тоже наверняка нужно разрешение было: Danish teenage girl stabbed mother to death after watching Isil videos with Islamist boyfriend


самое удивительное, что убийство произошло в октябре прошлого года:
Lisa Borch, then 15, killed Tina Römer Holtegaard with the help of her 29-year-old Islamist boyfriend in October, 2014, Danish website The Local reported. - nbcnews.com

вот из Дании, по-английски. найти про октябрь не так просто в mainstream. объяснения этому, конечно, найдут - ну, решение суда вынесено сегодня или вчера... объяснение находят всему и всегда.

свежий ветер перемен, бля

бешенцы из Сирии

а вот эта новость [Wednesday 16 September 2015] внимания mass media не привлекла: Hundreds of Inmates Escape After Taliban Attack, ну да какие мелочи.

Holocaust Denial No Crime In Spain

на запрос "Holocaust Denial Spain" Google News возвращают ровно одну ссылку на статью от 5-го июля в никому неизвестной The Right Perspective. ясное дело, для NYT это не новость. ну или not fit to print.

можно было бы предположить, что это утка, если бы не ссылки в статье на World Jewish Congress (Spanish Jews outraged at acquittal of neo-Nazis by High Court), Jewish Community Federation of Spain (FCJE) и посольство Израиля.

Hungary No Greece

Its budget deficit is about one-half that of Greece. But it's GDP is less than one-half that of Greece...
