The tyranny of woke capitalism

CEOs are wielding their vast economic power to impose their values on everyone else.

It often appears that CEOs of some of the largest global corporations have made the cause of the woke their own. Their willingness to join the fray was demonstrated in their response to the launching of GB News in the UK. No sooner was this new, independent news network launched than sections of big business joined a boycott against it. A campaign was organised to pressure firms to pull their ads from GB News, and companies like Kopparberg, IKEA, Specsavers, Octopus Energy, Grolsch, Moneysupermarket, Vodafone and others swiftly gave in.

Adam Zivo: Eviction of homeless encampment was a victory for community safety

Earlier this week, Toronto Police Services cleared out a homeless encampment that had been a blight on Trinity Bellwoods Park, one of the city’s most popular public spaces. Approximately two dozen camp dwellers were evicted, at least half of whom were resettled into municipal shelters and city-paid hotel rooms. This was a victory for community safety, and hopefully heralds the clearance of other encampments that have similarly undermined public well-being.

Is there proof extraterrestrials are real? Five questions left unanswered by the U.S. government UFO report

Is there proof extraterrestrials are real? Five questions left unanswered by the U.S. government UFO report

A highly anticipated government report on unidentified aerial phenomena in American airspace was released Friday afternoon — and it’s not as illuminating as some may have hoped.

The report failed to offer firm explanations for many of the questions that raised the report’s profile in the first place, such as whether unidentified flying objects, or UFOs, pose a national security threat or whether they offer evidence of extraterrestrial life.

“Today’s rather inconclusive report only marks the beginning of efforts to understand and illuminate what is causing these risks to aviation in many areas around the country and the world,” said Sen. Mark R. Warner (D-VA), Chairman of the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence.

Deprogramming of January 6 Defendants Is Underway

The entire investigation is an attempt to prosecute people based on their beliefs. Those who purge their views and admit their wrongthink will be given mercy. Those who don’t will pay dearly.

“My lawyer has given me names of books and movies to help me see what life is like for others in our country. I’ve learned that even though we live in a wonderful country things still need to improve. People of all colors should feel as safe as I do to walk down the street.”

That passage is part book report, part white privilege mea culpa submitted to a federal court this month by Anna Morgan-Lloyd, one of the more than 500 Americans arrested for her involvement in the events at the U.S. Capitol on January 6.

US Senator Wants Canada Added to Watchlist of Religious Freedom Violators for Pastor Arrests

Sen. Josh Hawley (R-Mo.) on Thursday appealed to the U.S. Commission on International Religious Freedom (USCIRF) to consider adding Canada to its special watchlist—alongside the likes of Afghanistan, Cuba, and Iraq—in response to arrests of Canadian pastors who held services that allegedly violated COVID-19 restrictions.

The USCIRF’s special watchlist (SWL) is a list of countries where state-sanctioned violations of religious freedoms meet two of the elements of the agency’s “systematic, ongoing, and egregious” test. A secondary list, called the Countries of Particular Concern (CPC), features countries like China and Iran that meet all three criteria and whose governments engage in or tolerate “particularly severe” violations, such as torture.

High school valedictorian has his mic CUT while he talks about his queer identity and anorexia battle in graduation speech – after administrators told him the address was ‘not his therapy session’

A high school valedictorian in New Jersey had his microphone cut after he went off-script to talk about his queer identity and battle with anorexia during his graduation speech.

Bryce Dershem, 18, took to the podium in a rainbow flag robe to deliver his address at Eastern Regional High School in Voorhees last week.

Dersham and high school administrators had purportedly agreed upon a set speech prior to the event, but the valedictorian decided to go off-message after making his way onto the stage.

EU: Every Knee Shall Bow To The Rainbow Flag

EU: Every Knee Shall Bow To The Rainbow Flag

How fanatical are European elites about LGBT? Look:

Mark Rutte, the prime minister of the Netherlands, said Hungary either “must leave” the EU or repeal the law, which bans TV shows and other content seen as championing LGBT lifestyles for the under-18s.

However, some eastern European governments refused to join 17 of the bloc’s 27 countries in a rare joint statement condemning a fellow member state.

Brandeis ‘Word Police’ Highlights the Absurdity of Modern Progressivism

The Prevention, Advocacy and Resource Center (PARC) website at Brandeis University reads like a parody.

PARC compiled a list of words it deemed too offensive to utter, which includes “rule of thumb,” “killing it,” “freshman” and, somewhat ironically, “trigger warning.” The list is making the rounds on social media, eliciting general mockery from the political Right. And these social justice warriors deserve to be mocked: Their list is ridiculous.

Fed report finds UFOs may be security risk, have no ‘single explanation’

Fed report finds UFOs may be security risk, have no ‘single explanation’

Most of the UAP reported probably do represent physical objects given that a majority of UAP were registered across multiple sensors, to include radar, infrared, electro-optical, weapon seekers, and visual observation.

Is the truth out there? Maybe.

A long-awaited US government report on UFO sightings released Friday was largely inconclusive, describing the strange objects seen by military personnel across the US as a threat to flight safety and possibly national security, but adding that there was no “single explanation” for their appearance.

US to evacuate thousands of Afghans before troop withdrawal

The US plans to evacuate thousands of Afghans who worked for the American military ahead of September’s troop withdrawal, senior officials have said.

The plan could involve moving as many as 50,000 people to other countries along with their families.

Afghan interpreters who have worked for the US for years fear reprisals from the Taliban after the withdrawal.

As many as 18,000 Afghans have applied for US visas, but the lengthy process has been hindered by delays.

Isis-linked groups open up new fronts across sub-Saharan Africa

Islamic State’s affiliates in Africa are set for major expansion after a series of significant victories, new alliances and shifts in strategy reinforced their position across much of the continent.

Following recent gains in Nigeria, the Sahel, in Mozambique and the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Isis propaganda published by the group’s leadership in its heartland in the Middle East is increasingly stressing sub-Saharan Africa as a new front which may compensate the group for significant setbacks elsewhere.

Fearless prediction – Enraged African masses will destroy all Muslim states.
