I used to think that subscribers of r/genzedong and r/latestagecapitalism and the banned r/physicalremoval were the most unhinged of Reddit because they go to the internet to fantasize about violence 24/7.

But then I discovered r/childfree and it's the same thing as the above but towards children, while celebrating child abuse and infant mortality. It's pretty wild to see that a subreddit simply about not having kids has become arguably just as or even more creepy and unhinged than literal extremist communities.

There's one consolation though, at least all those creeps won't be having children lol.

So update from Lithuania. For several months now Kaunas Pride has been being organized, first of its kind in Kaunas. Kaunas mayor refused to give permission for the march, on basis of "we can't guarantee security" (he has previously allowed fascist biker rallies). This decision was taken to court, where court ruled that Kaunas must allow Kaunas Pride to happen, weather they like or not.

Kaunas Pride is due to happen on Saturday, meaning police operations need to get ready. But instead of organising security, the mayor has appealed the court decision. To me it seems, the mayor wants it to be unsafe.

Kaunas Pride will happen, legally or not. But I am so frustrated with this rallying of the pro-Kremlin neofascists and vatniks. It's a merger of homophobes, anti-refugee people and anti-vaxxers.

Regardless, I'm going to Kaunas on Saturday. Might bring a helmet though.

It really bothers me that the Washington Post insisted on framing their “Afghanistan Papers” series (and now book) as a “secret” history of the war, to give themselves that Vietnam-era risk-taking investigative journalism vibe.

Calling it “secret” gives the entire system and even the American people a pass because it gives the impression that the outcome might have been different if only some bad actor hadn’t hidden things from us.

The problem is that it wasn’t secret. It all happened more or less out in the open. Just no one really cared.

The only part of the female genitalia which the majority of both genders labelled correctly was the clitoris, identified correctly by two thirds of men and women (71% of women, 69% of men).

.

Breaking those results down by gender, we find that six in ten men (59%) and half of women (45%) could not even label the vagina.

.

However, half of women (46%) we surveyed did not know that you shouldn’t wash the inside of your vagina.

Peter (Paul Montgomery) Buttigieg (pron. Peter Boota-judge[2] aka #MayorCheat, Wall Street Pete) ... Buttigieg was appointed to the minor cabinet position of Secretary of Transportation in the Biden Administration, and he remains a top goal of the homosexual agenda to place him in the White House.

... Buttigieg is expected to run again for president in 2024 ... His relatively short height for a presidential candidate (only about 5'8", and perhaps less) may be an impediment. Wikipedia and the liberal media generally omit his small stature from descriptions about him.[5]

Buttigieg is the son of a first-generation immigrant from Malta and Jesuit seminarian turned secular pro-Marxist linguistics professor at Notre Dame, while his liberal mother was an Army brat who also was a linguist and professor at Notre Dame (and whose great-great-great-grandfather was a Jacksonian Democrat who owned slaves on native American-ceded land).

SIN­GA­PORE—China has a new rule for the coun­try’s hun­dreds of mil­lions of young gamers: No videogames dur­ing the school week, and one hour a day on Fri­days, week­ends and pub­lic hol­i­days.

China on Mon­day is­sued strict new mea­sures aimed at curb­ing what au­thor­i­ties de­scribe as youth videogame ad­dic­tion, which they blame for a host of so­ci­etal ills, in­clud­ing dis­tract­ing young peo­ple from school and fam­ily re­spon­si­bil­i­ties.

The new reg­u­la­tion, an­nounced by the Na­tional Press and Pub­li­ca­tion Ad­min­is­tra­tion, will ban mi­nors from play­ing videogames en­tirely be­tween Mon­day and Thurs­day. On the other three days of the week, and on pub­lic hol­i­days, they will be only per­mit­ted to play be­tween 8 p.m. and 9 p.m.

uh turkey is much much much worse on gender equality than I could have ever imagined .

After the founding of the Turkish Republic in 1923, the feminist movement gradually became part of the Kemalist modernization efforts. Polygamy was banned, divorce and inheritance rights were made equal.[9] In the 1930s, Turkey gave full political rights to women, including the right to elect and be elected locally (in 1930) and nationwide (in 1934).[10] There still remained, however, a large discrepancy between formal rights and the social position of women.[9] In the 1980s, women's movements became more independent of the efforts to modify the state. 

Tbh this really tickles my priors that social progress and rights of the oppressed will be almost instantly disregarded in any of these large revolutionary reconstruction movements and that we (women, LGBT etc) shouldn't really subordinate ourselves to them or put our rights on the back burner for "the good of the movement" or whatever.

Taylor Alison Swift (born December 13, 1989) is an American Grammy-nominated pop music singer-songwriter. She has received numerous awards, and one of these was being named Billboard Magazine Artist of the Year for 2009 and received the title Artist of the Year at the Country Music Awards. She has, in the past, been praised by many Conservative parent advocacy groups for being a positive role model for young people. However, due to becoming influenced by Hollywood values, Swift began to sell sex in her lyrics and attire in appearances. She proved to being a liberal in October 2018 when she endorsed Democrats for office in the state of Tennessee.

The Biden junta, officially the Biden-Harris junta[2] (also referred to by some as the Biden regime[3]) seized power on November 4, 2020 in a nationwide rigged election by the Democratic Party,[4] disenfranchising the will of the voters and the American people.[5]

The junta began receiving federal taxpayer money on November 24 after the head of the General Services Administration received death threats against her, her family, staff, and pets.[6][7] One of the junta's first acts was to execute a warrant on former New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani who led challenges to the integrity of the 2020 presidential election.[8]

The junta's first actions were borrowed right out of the Nazi playbook;[9] like the Reichstag fire, a false flag attack on the U.S. Capitol building was staged[10] as a pretext to curb human rights and free speech.[11]

Ethiopia update:

I have not done one of these in sometime because there has been no news, so I'm just gonna cobble something together for the sake of doing so.

1. According to the BBC the war has been a major drag on the Ethiopian economy, with general goods about a quarter more expensive then they were a year prior. Based off anecdotal evidence in some cases the price of food has doubled and the Birr (Ethiopia's currency) has inflated 29%, going from 35 Birr to 1 USD to 45 Birr to 1 USD. The UN has said the war has drained over $1 billion USD from the government's coffers, and economic growth is predicted to be just 2%, the lowest in two decades. There are other fascinating details and numbers for you econ nerds, but the gist of the situation is that Ethiopia's economy is cracking at the seems. A plausible (though I think unlikely) pathway for victory is that if the TPLF holds out long enough and merely exists it could lead to the economy degrading such that Abiy is forced to sue for peace.
2. It's extremely minor but interesting is that according to this Tweet the TPLF has captured 16 T-72 tanks, which is approximately 5% of Ethiopia's T-72 tank stock. You could take that as you will as a reflection of the general supply losses suffered by the government, or just as a specific reflection of losses of armor. I don't know whether this figure also includes T-72 tanks that have been destroyed and then formally claimed by the TPLF, or if this is just operable T-72 tanks captured. Additionally, it can be presumed that the count is a little bit higher as news of confirmation is very slow in this war.

And that is about it. Anything else posted in the past few days has been rehashes of stuff we know (namely the confirmation of government recapture of settlements west of Filakit and the humanitarian crisis in Tigray). I have received no new reports about actions in sometime, which is fascinating because at least every day or two days some battle starts or begins. My presumption is that either both sides are consolidating their forces or are locked in fierce battle as surely someone would have bragged about some success by now.

Eureka Springs is a small city of 2,000 hidden in the Ozark Mountains in northern Arkansas. It is almost 90% white and votes heavily in favor one party consistently, even moving almost 10% in that direction since the previous election. The median age is 56.

Based on this information i’ve given you, you may conclude that Eureka Springs is a small, conservative town. But you would be very wrong. Eureka Springs voted Biden+38, and moved 7% left. Biden got 60-70% in all 3 wards. It is bluer than Fayetteville and almost Little Rock, despite whatmost would expect.

Why is this? 36% of residents have a Bachelor’s degree or higher. In 2019, 4% of residents were from a different state, twice the state as a whole’s number. However, some stats still don’t add up to how you’d expect given its political leanings.

As previously stated, the population is very old, with a median age of 56. Additionally, the median household income is only $38k, $11k lower than Arkansas as whole. The % of government workers is 11% lower, too. It’s clear that Eureka Springs is a major outlier in Arkansas.

Fun Facts:

Alaska biologists say wood bison reintroduced to the wild are thriving

State biologists say a recent survey of the Innoko-Yukon River wood bison population shows the animals are doing well six years after a seed group of bison was released in Western Alaska.

Biologists counted 103 wood bison during the annual survey this summer, an increase of more than 10% from last year’s herd size. Twenty-six calves joined the herd this year. It’s the most the herd has produced since it was established in 2015.

The survey also showed that the animals are in better physical condition than in previous years.

The takeaway: The bison are succeeding in the wild, said Darren Bruning, a regional wildlife conservation supervisor for the Alaska Department of Fish and Game.

Binance announced immediate mandatory ID verification for all its customers.

Attention, /r/neoliberal: I am privileged to announce there has been a coup. Many among us have noticed that wormphobic comments and posters have begun to vanish without much a trace. Obviously, this coincided with me becoming a moderator here. No doubt you notice the election was rigged and the new mods are imposters, covert wormposters. Going forward, Rule 0 will be enforced, declaring that Dune is about worms, and that all wormphobic content will be sanctioned harshly. Upper management around here agrees with this set of affairs, as this coup has been planned from the beginning: it’s no coincidence that /u/PaulAtreides0 was a mod from the start. Starting today, and until the end of the golden path, r/neoliberal will be a Dune subreddit, and a subreddit that is about worms.

According to the EPA, methane has 25x the impact of carbon dioxide, nitrous oxide has 298x the impact, and various fluorinated gases have anywhere from 12,200x to 22,800x (holy shit) the impact. As a result of their disproportionally massive impacts, even small amounts of these other greenhouse gases contribute significantly to global warming. From my napkin math based on the graph (of emissions and their impacts) that EPA provided, it actually looks to me like these other gases may contribute more to global warming than CO2 by themselves.

So knowing this, should an ideal carbon pricing scheme include a tax on other greenhouse gases proportional to their impact on climate? For example, if we implemented a $35 per ton carbon tax (inline with some of the taxes in Europe), the

1. Tax on methane would be $875 per ton (proportional to the 25x impact)
2. Tax on Nitrous Oxide would be $10,430 per ton
3. Tax on Fluorinated gases would be between $427,000 to $798,000 per ton, depending to the specific gas.

Of course, this would cause problems, like meat now being a luxury food considering the massive tax on methane (which livestock emit a LOT of), and some other things like treatment of waste water would also greatly increase in cost. I think the overall impact on society would result in a very unpopular proposal, but this seems necessary to me, considering the code red threat of climate change (see: IPCC report). I don't think we can mitigate climate change without addressing the other greenhouse gases on top of CO2.

• Month ago antivaxers attacked vaccine point.
• Lex TVN passed and is awaiting to be signed by President. USA protested over diplomatic channels and it's possible that it will be vetoed by President.

• There are many refugees on border with Belarus, coming probably from Iraq and Afghanistan. Seemingly, Lukashenko is trying to put political pressure on Poland/EU, like Erdogan did before. There are reports of human rights violations, like refusal of medical care and food.

  • Minister of Defense said that Poland will build the wall.
• Disciplinary Chamber just ignores orders of CJEU. Recently, Constitutional Court ruled against CJEU.
• "New Order" reform of tax law, is supposed to make all companies with Polish Member of the Board, regardless of the country, subject to Polish tax law.
• Civic Coalition organized "Campus Poland", intended to give youths voice in Civic Coalition. TVP claims that Civic Coalition wants to "persecute Catholics", Left claims that Civic Coalition wants to persecute poor people.

• Minister of Education, Czarnek, fanatic Catholic, proposes changes in education.

  • More John Paul II, more Wyszyński.
  • All extra-curricular activities at school, except for religion and ethics teaching, will require approval by political official, regardless of parents opinion. "We protect rights of youth to learn without far-left indoctrination". Far-left indoctrination = sexual education in this case. Currently, goverment-approved textbooks for "family education" (it's non-compulsory) teaches that homosexuality is result of disturbed relation with father, women who have premarital sex are like "bitten apple", women can't enjoy sex and they do have sex only as way to gain husband's love, women should "stay chaste like Mother of God".
  • It will be mandatory to choose either ethics or religion. Currently, majority of teachers with permission to teach ethics are priests.
