L'affaire #Dorsey

There's been a minor kerfuffle in India for the last two days since the Twitter ex-CEO, Jack Dorsey, @jack, made some statements about freedom of speech in India under #Modi.

A 🧵

(1/)
#Liberals are gleefully sharing these comments as evidence of #India not being a democratic country, and defenders of the government are going into attack dog mode, as usual.

But many people on both sides are missing some key things here:

(2/)
1. Dorsey didn't talk only about India. In fact, he also talked about how the #USA government tried to suppress things. As also #Turkey, #Nigeria.

2. This points to a deeper issue underlying the whole controversy: Is #FreedomOfSpeech absolute?

@metrikk @shalowaters @ScottAn72778460 @OCpatriot_ @sav_says_ Here's #HuffPo on research on

Why People Shut Down When Their Political Beliefs Are Challenged

Certain brain areas go into overdrive, treating opposing evidence like an existential threat

Which they try to use to smear conservatives

Especially #Trump😱

@metrikk @shalowaters @ScottAn72778460 @OCpatriot_ @sav_says_ But the paper #HuffPo relies on to smear conservatives in their article

Especially #Trump & his supporters

Neural correlates of maintaining one’s political beliefs in the face of counterevidence

Is actually a study on "#LIBERALS"!!!😱🤦‍♂️😂🤣🤣

@metrikk @shalowaters @ScottAn72778460 @OCpatriot_ @sav_says_ That's par for the course for "liberal" "science"

Here's an article on the "scientific" output

Of our famously (supposedly more intelligent & educated) "liberal" academics

Conservative political beliefs NOT linked to psychotic traits, AS study CLAIMED🤦‍♂️

In 2020 and 2022, we asked #liberals and #conservatives to estimate how many unarmed black men were killed by police during the previous year.

Which group was more accurate?

Did accuracy improve over time?

Here's what we found.

#police #racism #race #media Image
2020 Survey: "How many unarmed black men were killed by police in 2019?"

The Washington Post's police shooting database says 12.

54% of "Very Liberals" (least accurate) estimated 1,000+.

13% of "Conservatives" (most accurate) estimated 1,000+. Image
2022 Survey: “How many unarmed black men were killed by police in 2021?”

The Washington Post's police shooting database says 11.

40% of "Very Liberals" (least accurate) estimated 1,000+.

16% of "Very Conservatives" (most accurate) estimated 1,000+. Image

#Erdogan has won the elections in #Turkey.

#Indian #liberals are dismayed because Erdogan is trying to #Islamize Turkey.

But this is a decision of the people of Turkey.

Erdogan has won through a democratic, free and fair election.

This is what the people of Turkey want.

(1/)
If you claim to love #Democracy, that is, the will of the people, then you should be happy with this result.

Erdogan is a #Democrat. He is not #Liberal. He converted the #HagiaSophia into a mosque.

But #Democracy has NOTHING TO DO with #Liberalism, and vice versa.

(2/)
#Ataturk was a #Liberal in every sense of the word. He abolished the #Caliphate, closed down #Madarsa s, changed the language of the country from #Arabic to #Turkish, banned the #Fez cap, banned the #Sufi and #Dervish orders, and promoted scientific thinking.

#HardTruths

1. Jesus Christ is Lord and Savior, The Son Of God, The Way, The Truth, and The Life. There is only One God.
2. The Rainbow represents a promise, not a perversion. #TakingTheRainbowBack
3.Progressivism is the twisting of truth and an instrument of the devil.
(1/6)
4. God created the Male and Female. Just because the concepts of multiple genders has existed in Ancient times doesn't make it true. Just like saying the Jews are a rejected people. It is simply not true. (2/6)
5. Homosexuality is a sin. Do not think that God does not love you. He loves you so much, but He loves you too much to let you keep sinning. I ask any who are homosexual, please repent and turn to Christ. He loves you and wants to be with you! (3/6)

There are two distinctly divergent realities operating in the West currently. We can broadly define them as #Conservatives & #Liberals, or a little more accurately perhaps as #Reactionaries and #Radicals, although these identitarian deranged so-called radicals...
are certainly not radical by any traditional measures. Due to decades of corporate influenced, partisan conditioning, the #NewRadicals are now pro-war, pro-Wall Street, pro-Pharma and pro-Government. Incredible, but true.

Either way, I refer to these camps as #NippleDippers...
and #Gibbleheads. I realize some don't like that I use such colourful terminology however, I grew up reading Orwell and Burgess and feel compelled to invent my own terms, very much as they did. To be honest, I think Orwell was far more insulting (DuckSpeak? How humiliating!)

Short Thread;

#JainSamaj

Most PEACEFUL Minority in Bharat!

44.51Lakhs (0.40% of Total Population of Bharat)

I don't agree!

Every Jain is Hindu & Every Hindu is Jain!

Maybe, Rituals & Lifestyle is different!

Why am I saying this?

Modi Govt has issued DIRECTIVE to Jharkhand Govt to Protect PIETY of Shikharji which is being Targeted by So-called Tourists.

This shows that Modi Govt is receptive to protect Every Minority which follows BHARATIYTVA!

Pls read Directive 👇

Who are those who want to destroy roots of our Bhartiyatwa by targeting PIETY & Rituals of our Religious Places?

They are #Liberals who want to destroy Piety of Jain Religious Places like #Shikharji & #Palitana by consuming Meat & Liquor in name of Tourism.

FACT: The problem with Liberals is they've never been called out on their BULLSHIT and have never been forcibly sat down in their place and scolded for being idiots and wrong about everything. They have been coddled for way to long. Not offending them, this REAL PANDEMIC.
They have been treated like spoiled brats by incompetently stupid parents is what is wrong with them. They have been told for way too long they are such good little angels and this has led to their severe Mental Delusion Disorder.
The @DNC #DemocratParty is full of idiots who have been brainwashed into thinking that i.e. killing babies via Abortion is such a wonder and moral, and ethical thing to do. They've been told that it is okay to flaunt their #LGBTQ-ness in front of children in public is a Godly.

I though to write this thread of rants as many friends try best to put or discard self from the bracket of #Liberals . But do they exactly know what it means to be a Liberal?

I asked this question to many but most had varying, diverging answers.
Most just gave an answer because they did't wished to remain speechless. In the time of now, we have forgotten the art of staying quite if answer is not known to us and we just jump to give an answer by hook or crook.

They did the same.
Of course, you must first know the disease that you are claiming to be suffering from. Symptoms must be known and hence it was my prime objective to learn there definitions.

Then I suggested all of them the steps that I chose to know any subject:
Experiment, Observe and Infer.

(1/11) Do you ever stop to ask yourself:
“Why is the GOVERNMENT such an inescapable part of my PERSONAL LIFE?!” Because that’s how they control us.
#Democrats want even MORE control.
How’s that working out?
Time to hit “STOP” and then “REVERSE.”
Think about it…
#Liberals #POTUS
(2/11) Getting married? Government is involved! WHY?! What PURPOSE do they serve?
Having a baby? The placenta will still be warm and the government ASSIGNS THAT BABY A NUMBER!
And don’t kid yourself… it’s not about “population”… it’s about CONTROL! …
3/11) They stamp your baby with a number so that they can track its every move and then POUNCE the second it’s old enough to pay taxes.
Buying land? Wanna build a house? Start a business? Don’t you worry, citizen! The government will be up your ass…

What I find as interesting about this chart as its contents is the label at the top: "#LIBERAL WOMEN"

Labour may in part* be more 'liberal' than the current Conservative party, but it is not a Liberal party...

__
*It still has its more authoritarian, "law'n'order!" tendencies. Image
...indeed, the chart itself 👇 suggests that "the women of Wakefield" support the Liberal Democrats LESS than the men.

This rather American(?) conflation of "left" and "liberal" in both language and assumption is a form of #CategoryError - in large part due to the insistence... Image
...on the all-too #binary 'left/right' framing that fails to encompass many nuances within politics.

That UK-level choices prefer only two 'parties of Government' does not entirely reflect either sentiment or ground reality, as the local government layer in England indicates... Image

MP #GautamGambhir questions silence of ‘secular liberals’ amid death threats against #NupurSharma

#ProphetCommentRow live updates: timesofindia.indiatimes.com/india/prophet-…
Nobody has supported the statements made by #NupurSharma. The party has taken strict disciplinary action against her and she has unequivocally apologised for the same: #GautamGambhir
The blatant display of #hatred, #deaththreats against her and her family and coordinated rioting in different parts of the country is a cause of concern: #GautamGambhir

5️⃣ #Ideology is blindingly dangerous

First, check out this remarkable @Techcrunch article called "Geeks for Monarchy".

Long before the 2016 election brought us a #Trump/#Putin/#Theil/#AltRight mashup of craziness, @klintron laid out this #antidemocracy ideology waaaaaay back in 2013.

Poll:
Will the Canadian Disability Benefit receive it's funding in the Liberal Federal Budget 2022 presented tomorrow by Finance Minister Chrystia Freeland?

#CanadianDisabilityBenefit #cdnpoli #Liberals #WhereIsTheCanadianDisabilityBenefit #Trudeau #Freeland #Disability #Canada
The answers to this poll are important to me.

As a disabled person, Since '21 I've had the "option" of using MAID due to the C7 amendments rushed through removing the safeguards surrounding it. (Even before the mental illness option for MAID opens in '23) I wasn't able to prior.
By keeping me trapped in legislated poverty, the government is keeping my quality of life poor. I can't afford basic necessities life therapy, rent or medicine. The gov is actively pushing me toward MAID by keeping my quality of life poor with the only other "option" is MAID.

#PMLive interview with @ScottMorrisonMP:

1. "Our economy is one of the strongest in the world."
...except for the trillion dollars of debt?
2. "Labor took the defence spending down."
...sure, but #Liberals spent a fortune on the wrong things. You can't just count the dollars on defence and say 'Australia is protected'. Where are the questions about the serious defence failures leaving us more unprepared than ever?
3. "I've stood up for our freedoms in our part of the world."
...so weird. I don't remember #Scomo protecting a single Australian worker from #Covid19 mandates that cost them their jobs - or any point in time where he scorned Premiers for enacting undemocratic emergency powers.

It wasn’t a liberal who announced the Iraq war and New World Order led by a credible United Nations or Emergency Use Authorization or incentivized lockdowns. That was #Conservative #Republican #GOP @GOP #Bush was in #Dallas at #JFK assassination. #Cuba Father of the #CIA
#building7 #WTC23 collapsing without being hit gave Bush JR what he needed a war on terror. It was JR who made Emergency Use Authorization and facial recognition law realID. Everyone knows “Homeland” connection to Hitler. Nazis introduced the term “homeland” at their first rally.
That rally was at Nuremberg where doctors scientists & media would be executed for manipulating and forcing #Jews into medical experimentation. This is where #InformedConsent comes from. All #COVID19 #vaccines are experimental.

1. #COVID19 #Vaccinations #AntiVax #Morality

I think that I have just experienced something which I suspect many have already.

In simple terms, people hiding the fact that they have been exposed to those with confirmed #Coronavirus and have been ill themselves...
2. #COVID19 #Vaccinations #AntiVax #Morality

...offering that they have tested negative. But, you then discover they're refusing to receive the #vaccine!

In other words, they wish to express their "libertarian" selves, but your views are secondary..
3. #COVID19 #Vaccinations #AntiVax #Morality

...perhaps even your health is secondary to their own "free" views?

Some openly declare they are anti-vaxxers. The stock phrase is that they are now #freethinkers...

We have to understand that white neolibs are not stupid—they are willfully ignorant.
Their solidarity is merely performative, just as it is with #BlackLivesMatter; to educate themselves on the actual history of #PuertoRican politics is not worth possibly losing two Dem senators.
They don’t actually care about the situations they make their ignorant comments on, outside of how black and brown suffering can serve as a tool to benefit white agendas—Again, simply look to #BlackLivesMatter and all of last year’s performative #activism.
There is a strong irony that these faux-progressive white neolibs (and their token black and Latino stooges) amplify their performative beliefs in their bios, hashtags and feeds but their activism stops at actually taking action. They decide to preserve their whiteness instead.
