Point Refuted A Thousand Times

Pete Hegseth, Lee Zeldin, etc. #wingnut #conspiracy #pratt #fundie religionnews.com

In his speech to senior military leaders on Sept. 30, U.S. Secretary of War Pete Hegseth took a well-worn page out of the climate skeptic’s playbook: He framed climate change research, policy and activism as a “religion.” More specifically, he declared there was “no more climate change worship” in the Department of War.

Hegseth has been calling concern with climate change a “religion” for a while. He’s far from alone. Lee Zeldin, the administrator of the Environmental Protection Agency, announced a wave of sweeping environmental deregulations back in March, exclaiming, “we are driving a dagger through the heart of climate-change religion and ushering in America’s Golden Age.” (Zeldin likes the rhetoric.)

Similar remarks were made during the first Trump administration. In 2016, Kathleen Hartnett White, a nominee to head the Council on Environmental Quality, called belief in climate change a “kind of paganism.” William Happer, a physicist and frequent adviser to President Donald Trump in 2017, called climate scientists “a glassy-eyed cult.” More recently, former Trump economic adviser and Heritage Foundation fellow Stephen Moore asserted that “climate change is not a science, it’s a religion

Donald Trump #pratt #psycho #wingnut cnn.com

President Donald Trump on Tuesday angrily dismissed a question about the 2018 murder of Jamal Khashoggi, claiming the Saudi dissident journalist was “extremely controversial” and insisting the subject was only raised during his meeting with Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman to embarrass his visitor.

“You’re mentioning somebody that was extremely controversial. A lot of people didn’t like that gentleman that you’re talking about. Whether you liked him or didn’t like him, things happen,” Trump said in the Oval Office as he presided over a pageant-filled visit for the de facto Saudi leader.

Trump went on to insist Prince bin Salman — who the CIA assessed likely ordered the murder — wasn’t involved.

“He knew nothing about it, and we can leave it at that,” Trump said, turning toward the crown prince.

Centers for Disease Control and Prevention #conspiracy #pratt #quack reuters.com

As of Wednesday night the agency's website states: "The claim 'vaccines do not cause autism' is not an evidence-based claim because studies have not ruled out the possibility that infant vaccines cause autism." It added that health authorities have "ignored" studies supporting the link between the two.

The agency kept the header "Vaccines do not cause autism" on its web page, saying that it has not been removed due to an agreement with Senator Bill Cassidy, chairman of the U.S. Senate's Committee on Health, Education, Labor and Pensions.

St. Petersburg State University, Russian Orthodox Church’s legal department and Justice Ministry of the Russian Federation #wingnut #crackpot #pratt #conspiracy meduza.io

In April, Russia introduced a new Explanatory Dictionary of the State Language of the Russian Federation, compiled at St. Petersburg State University and immediately added to the official list of normative dictionaries that government agencies are required to use. In November, The Barents Observer noted that the dictionary’s authors say “some” definitions were coordinated with the Russian Orthodox Church’s legal department and prepared under the oversight of the Justice Ministry. They state outright that these entries are meant to reflect the “traditional spiritual and moral values” outlined in the presidential decree on state policy principles[…]

(Tl;dr the OP is comparing having a horse as a loyal companion to owning a well-treated slave. Their wording almost makes them seem like a Slavery apologist.)

Horses 🏇🏻Are No Different From Slaved Pokemons.

Only Unlike Fictional Pokémon ,

Horses Are Actually Real.

And The Horse Is Also A Slave.

And Yet The Horse Is Widely Known To The World For Being So Loyal To His Rider That It Was Sometimes Known That Horses Would Keep On Running For There Rider Masters Until They Died Of Exhaustion.

And Even After All Of The Years Of This….

The Horse Does Not Seem To Mind Or Even Care.

Because That One Person Is Correct.

Sometimes A Slave Can Still Be A Slave And It Not Meaning That You Have To Be Nasty And Beat Your Slave Mercilessly.

Sometimes It Can Mean A Relationship Between A Slave,
And A Kind Master.

Just Like A Horse And It’s Rider.

Hollywood can also stop with tHe MeSs@g3. Does every action hero have to be Keanu Reeves? No. But I’m not going to believe that the fat gay black woman is going to drop the seven foot body builder.10 I will not accept waif fu unless we’re in comic books or supernatural fiction. Gay folk are maybe 3% of the population, I don’t need them to be 50% of the characters in media. Stop turning every fantasy world into downtown Manhattan. [footnote: See … any fantasy on streaming. Sigh. No. Really.] I can go on.

You know what I saw in the theater this year? A Working Man. Why? Because I like Chuck Dixon and I wanted his film to do well.

(post claims they’ve discovered a new intervention that cures a long list of symptoms gender dysphoria)

So, what is this Intervention?

So, what is this new intervention that is so good at alleviating Gender Dysphoria? It is Puberty! Yes puberty. As it is a bit of a turbulent time it can of course, be associated with some increased risks of mental health concerns as a person develops, however it also presents opportunities for positive development and maturing. Understanding and supporting adolescents through this period can help maximize the potential mental health benefits of puberty. Going through puberty can lead to the development of deeper peer relationships, development of the brain regions involved in understanding others’ perspectives (social cognition), which helps adolescents build stronger peer connections and social support networks and is strongly linked to better mental health and resilience. It is also related to the exploration of personal identity and self-awareness, development of greater emotional awareness and coping strategies, influences brain development and function and synaptic pruning, enables emotional resilience and social competence, develops the pre-frontal cortex which aids problem solving. It leads to an increase in production of white matter brain volume, improves communication and connectivity between brain regions and more efficient cognitive processing and emotional regulation. It leads to an increase in emotional intensity by stimulating the limbic system and risk-taking behaviours necessary to help develop adult roles. It also develops the corpus callosum which supports improved coordination between analytical and creative thinking. Therefor not experiencng puberty or delaying puberty leads to stunted or delayed general development and the likelihood of prolonged Gender Dysphoria.

Reasonable Jew

An Elderly Jewish woman with a “Jews for Palestine” sign says “Israel is a terrorist state. Don’t believe their lies.”

A white guy comes up to her and says “Oh a reasonable Jew!”

“We exist, dear” she answers happily.

“And the holocaust. Also a lie, right?” white guy continues “I mean, lampshades? Come on.”

“Keep my holocaust out of your fucking mouth Goy!” she furiously snaps at him.

Dr. Samar Maqusi #conspiracy #pratt #racist timesofisrael.com

University College London, a prominent UK university, said on Thursday that it had launched an investigation and banned a researcher who taught an antisemitic blood libel in a lecture.

The researcher, Dr. Samar Maqusi, shared the libel with the campus branch of Students for Justice in Palestine on Tuesday.

The blood libel is an age-old anti-Jewish myth that falsely says Jews murder non-Jews to bake their blood into Passover matzah. The libel is one of the most notorious antisemitic falsehoods and has caused repeated violence to Jews in Europe and elsewhere.

Maqusi’s lesson centered on the Damascus Affair, an incident in Syria in 1840 during which a monk disappeared and the Jewish community was falsely accused of murdering him to use his blood for Passover ceremonies. Eight leading members of the Jewish community were tortured into confessing.

Maqusi said the monk, Father Thomas, had disappeared during a “Jewish feast,” which she identifies as Sukkot, apparently confusing the holiday with Passover. She also misstated the date of the incident, saying that it took place in 1838.

“During this feast, they make these special pancakes, or bread, and part of the holy ceremony is that drops of blood from someone who’s not Jewish, which the term is ‘gentile,’ has to be mixed in that bread,” Maqusi said, according to an audio recording shared by the advocacy group StandWithUs. The group said one of its members went to the event and recorded the lecture.

“The story is that a certain investigation was undergoing to find out where Father Thomas is. He was found murdered and a group of Jews who lived in Syria said that, admitted to kidnapping him and murdering him to get drops of blood for making the holy bread,” she said, without mentioning the torture.

“Do investigate, draw your own narrative,” she said.

The campus branch of Students for Justice in Palestine had advertised the Tuesday event as part of a lecture series called “Palestine: From existence to resistance.” Maqusi’s talk was called “The Birth of Zionism.”

[From “What women want”]

Women want what they do not want, and love what they hate

Men understand what they want in love, sex, and romance, and act to attain it in a way that seems to them realistically likely to attain it[…]
Women are not like that, and consent culture has imposed upon them an insoluble task to which they were not exposed to[…]They face a problem that lacks a rational solution, and their response to it is, unsurprisingly, deeply irrational

Miss Average wants to be loved and cared for my mister one in thirty, by the six foot six billionaire athlete vampire King, and proceeds to act in ways that make it unlikely that anyone will ever love her except her cats[…]and that she will die alone and be eaten by her cats

Some of them panic at age thirty or forty, and proceed to condescend to reluctantly marry mister average, who is fifty years old and involuntarily celibate up till now, but by that time, her eggs and her womb have probably dried up

And when parents and uncles tell their rapidly ageing daughters and nieces that they should get their act together, it is totally and completely ineffective[…]
Women complain men are not willing to commit, not even willing to approach. Meaning mister one in thirty is not willing to commit to miss average[…]
Obviously women are happiest staying at home cooking, cleaning, serving and obeying their husband. But, in the event that the six foot six billionaire vampire King should fall madly in love with him, have absolutely no intention of cooking, cleaning, serving, and obeying him[…]
Of course these demands are merely a shit test, what they actually hope for is to be smacked and handed a mop. But they are unaware of hoping for this[…]
In matters of love and sex, what females intend, and what they believe that they want, have little connection to actual female conduct. “It just happened”. It is all a shit test. But this shit test is preventing successful family formation and reproduction

Maria Efremova #racist #conspiracy #wingnut #pratt meduza.io

Maria Efremova is your average filmmaker, journalist, actress, conspiracy theorist, and anti-gay[…]Her latest work behind and in front of the camera is the movie Good Neighbors[…]Promotional materials describe the film as fun for the whole family[…]Good Neighbors is also, somewhat convolutedly, about the search for a kidnapped 10-year-old boy and his mother’s book publisher[…]The abductions are the work of diabolical Leninists who react poorly to new research that “exposes the cult of Ilyich”[…]
In one especially cringe-worthy scene, “would-be bikers Dima and Olya” (the latter played by Efremova) sit together and reminisce about the greatness of the Russian people. Dima recalls something he read from “an English geologist and traveler” who once praised Russians’ ingrained capacity for “compassionate” colonialism. Olya comments on the “accuracy” of this description and then marvels that such perceptiveness was possible from an Englishman, “a representative of the most deceitful nation on Earth”[…]
Efremova’s character explains that “there are Russians by blood” and “there are Russians in spirit — those who have embraced our customs, culture, and moral values.” Dima agrees, adding that the latter group is called “Russified.” Laughing, he points out that no one but Russians has this infectious, universal appeal — not the British, the French, the Armenians, and especially not the Jews

In another scene, a character named Vera warns her son that Lenin’s Mausoleum functions as a “teraphim,” which she describes as an accursed object made from the dried heads of infants allegedly killed by Jews[…]
Later in the film, someone calls Lenin a “lispy Judas” and accuses him of “destroying the Russian Empire,” “ruining the country,” “carrying out a genocide of Russians,” and “selling Crimea to Jewish tycoons”[…]
After Good Neighbors disappeared from Star Media’s platforms, Efremova published an article titled Why Were the Jews Frightened by the Russian Film ‘Good Neighbors’?

Association to Defend the Memory of Marshal Petain (ADMP), Jacques Boncompain and Pierre-Nicolas Nups #wingnut #pratt france24.com

Xavier Delarue, the government prefect of Meuse department in eastern France, said he would take action over remarks made following a mass for Petain organised by an association dedicated to restoring his reputation

Interior Minister Laurent Nunez and a leading Jewish community group also condemned the comments

The Association to Defend the Memory of Marshal Petain (ADMP) organised a mass Saturday at Saint-Jean-Baptiste church in Verdun, where Petain won a famous WWI battle in 1916

Around 20 association members attended. Outside about 100 people, watched by police, gathered to protest the ceremony

After the mass ADMP president Jacques Boncompain told journalists that Petain had been "the first resistant of France"

Boncompain also said Petain's post-war conviction for treason by a High Court of Justice had not been fair

Protestors booed one member of the pro-Petain group as he sang a song in praise of Petain "Marshal, Here We Are"[…]
Nunez[…]said: "The remarks made today on the sidelines of a mass in 'tribute' to Philippe Petain in Verdun go against our collective memory"

The minister condemned any attempt to rehabilitate someone linked to WWII collaboration and oppression

Yonathan Arfi, president of CRIF, which represents Jewish institutions in France, called the tribute an insult to the memory of 76,000 Jews deported during Petain's time[…]
Revisionism, under French criminal law, is the act of negating or minimising crimes such as genocide, war crimes or crimes against humanity

Anyone convicted faces up to a year in jail and a fine of up to 45,000 euros ($52,000)

The Petain tribute came soon after France's Armistice Day on November 11[…]when the nation remembers those who fought and died in the conflict

Verdun's mayor, Samuel Hazard, had tried to ban the pro-Petain ceremony, but was overruled by a court on Friday

[The man who sang Maréchal, nous voila has been identified in French sources as Pierre-Nicolas Nups]

“Gay rights, the right to marriage, and all that has been a thing in most states for 25+ years now in the US.

But a lot of people who push this agenda have been taught to think that "words are violence", so if you question their insanity, to them, it means you're actually physically attacking them.

That's why I want forced admissions to come back into fashion, so any time I hear someone muttering "words are violence", it will give reason to report them to the nearest ward for possible insanity.

Mental health has been on the decline for yrs now, especially since Covid, and I think it's time we stopped allowing the loons to walk about and crack whenever they feel like it. Back in the 50's, if anyone openly lost their marbles, they'd be taken away asap, I'd love for that to be brought back and normalised again, because not only does it keep ppl safe from the lunatics, but it also prevents the insane from causing further damage and trying to normalise their insanity.

The left worships victimhood. They see Native Americans as perpetual victims, so they romanticize them and like to act as if they were above the same things that define much of human history.. Whereas if they were around today, being pitied and coddled is about the last thing they'd want. These were hyper-masculine cultures, extolling the virtues of the warrior making a name for himself, not shying away from hardship but embracing it, while also showing utterly no mercy to those that stood in their way or fell into their hands.

I'm Cherokee myself, so I'll not be lectured by those with no grasp of history or romanticized as some sort of descendent of noble savages. Native Americans of all kinds were human beings just like everyone else, and had human motivations such as greed, desire for power and glory, and everything else that drove human ambition. My own Cherokee people had those among them during the Civil War who owned slaves and fought for the Confederacy. It also remains the crux of an ongoing legal battle; the descendents of slaves the Cherokee held up to that point wanting to be recognized as being Cherokee themselves because of this.. Of all the ridiculous things to willingly go to court for, and deal with all the bullshit that the legal system entails.
