Old Communist China Same As The New Communist China: Evil Incarnate

     With the recent attention shone on Hong Kong trying to resist the treaty-violating machinations of the tyrants of Beijing, we are reminded that the “New Communist China” that was supposed to embrace democracy and (classical) liberal values just embraced a side of fascist economics (i.e. corporatism) to go along with their Maoist tyrannical ways.

     It is also a reminder that non-Whites can embrace the same values as Whites—that non-Western civilizations can come to revere the same values and precepts that Western civilizations have, or at least had. The measures taken by the Hong Kong protesters are manifest: Daring escapes by sewers; channeling Spinal Tap with anti-police “little stonehenges”; holing up, in the same tradition as ancient European universities; improvising weapons due to lack of legal firearms; bravely defying anti-mask laws; and all this despite the Communists going after pre-teen children.

     Despite this, the people of Hong Kong have stood up and expressed their voice in the one democratic remnant they still have (for now). And it it to the credit of the Hong Kong voters that the Communists can but lash out at non-Chinese who voice support for Hong Kong.

     With the highlighting of tyranny in Hong Kong, a far more lucifarian evil that the Communists exercise in the rest of the People’s Republic China outside of Macau and Hong Kong… especially with one of the many ethnic, religious, and cultural minorities within the People’s Republic China’s borders, as is the case with the Uighurss in Xinjiang who are subject to concentration camps/gulags for “reeducation”, where faux medieval wannabe torture devices are employed in a way that not even the novel “1984” could’ve proposed as plausible for its time.

You Will Be Made To F**k

— Erick Erickson

     Conservative activist once noted that while the Left used a plea for tolerance for themselves they ultimately want to abolish tolerance once in power and impose their will on dissenters, summing it up with the phrase “you will be made to care”.

     In the U.K., this has devolved into punishing someone for bluntly declaring that they will not have sex with someone else whom they don’t wish to have sex with.

“A woman from Hull has accused a man of ‘transphobic behaviour’ which she says could scupper her chances of a modelling career.

“Transgender woman Ria Cooper, 25, says she has contacted police after a series of messages were sent to her over Whatsapp by a photographer who promised to help promote her career.

“The west Hull woman, who became Britain’s youngest transgender woman at the age of 15, claims the man suddenly stopped all contact after discovering she was trans.

“She says the man made contact after she began sending links to her fans on social media of her new glamour modelling portfolio.

“During the conversation, the man said the glamour industry was small and “everyone was family” after bluntly proclaiming he couldn’t work with her because she ‘had a c***’.”

     With Kanye West turning to Christianity and involving it with his music, let us look back on a debate over just what Christianity is and ought to be, and what it has been.

Quick Takes – Sexual Dimorphic: Brains; Testosterone; Artificial Intellegence

     Another “quick takes” on items where there is too little to say to make a complete article, but is still important enough to comment on.

     The focus this time: Males are not females; females are not males.

     First, a little mood music:

     Carrying on…

     Whenever differences between male and females brains is pointed out, those who believe that there are no sex differences on social constructs even if this means that the belief that there are no sex differences is not science, but rather an article of faith.

“But I reminded [neuroscientist Gina] Rippon that even tests on infants find differences. Baby boys look longer at objects, such as tractor parts. Infant girls stare at faces.

“’A third of the girls actually seem to respond more to the tractor parts,” said Rippon.

“When I pointed out that meant two-thirds of the girls did not, Rippon said that the experiment should be redone ‘with a bigger set of newborns.’”

“Maybe. But scientists shouldn’t keep redoing experiments until they get results they like.”

Guidebook for Pushing Transgenderism on Children

     The Left achieves much of its success, via þe olde Gramscian March, by using a plethora of mostly innocuous sounding private organizations that work off each other as a stand alone complex, mostly sub rosa, with each of which is like a separate hydra head that can support the others as needed.

     This explains how seemingly sudden and drastic changes can appear to arise out of nowhere, when in fact such aforementioned organizations have been working mostly sub rosa to lay the groundwork to make it happen, with the “sudden” appearance being the final act of victory. Usually the game plan is not made public, and when it is the media either ignorant of it or accomplices to the scheming. Even if the information is made available, few, if any, individuals or organizations that are opposed to such schemes and societal re-designers know where to find such information due to the use of the mostly innocuous sounding private organizations and “charities”.

     However, sometimes, such information is found, and those who oppose such changes should publicize this information and spread it to others. Herein is such a case that involved pushing transgenderism on children entitled “Only Adults? Good Practices In Legal Gender Recognition For Youth.”

     Some of the “good practices” include:

  • It is recognized that the requirement for parental consent or the consent of a legal guardian can be restrictive and problematic for minors.

  • States should take action against parents who are obstructing the free development of a young trans person’s identity in refusing to give parental authorization when required.

  • While cultural and political factors play a key role in the approach to be taken, there are certain techniques that emerge as being effective in progressing trans rights in the “good practice” countries.

     Who is responsible for this?

“The International Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Queer and Intersex (LGBTQI) Youth & Student Organisation (IGLYO) … a network of 96 national and local lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer and intersex youth and student organisations across the Council of Europe region”; “Thomson Reuters Foundation … the corporate foundation of Thomson Reuters, the global news and information services company”; “Dentons … a polycentric law firm ranked as the world’s largest law firm by number of lawyers.”

The Wokeness of James Bond

     There are many stereotypes of the “James Bond” archetype, best lovingly parodied to most by the “Austin Powers” movies or the “Derek Flint” movies, but few interpretations seem hellbent on making 007 an agent of… wokeness.

     The first warning sign was that James Bond’s wife… wouldn’t take his name.

     It only goes downhill from that.

     To quote from the idiocy:

“The women in this film are all strong, brave and fiercely independent. These women are not helpless girls who jump into bed with Bond”

     Bond Girls were always strong kick-ass women. This is yet another example of people running a franchise they don’t grok.

“Crew members were given reusable water bottles which they filled from taps, saving an estimated 230,000 single-use plastic water bottles”

WTF? Nearly a quarter of a million bottles of water?

“Last week, actress Lashana Lynch, who will reportedly make history as the first black woman to play 007, told The Hollywood Reporter that the makers of “No Time to Die” worked hard to usher James Bond into the #MeToo age.”

     Will xyr be a genderfluid pansexual midget as well? At least dependent on the name=codename that made more sense in the world of Michael Moore’s supposition that. 007 was but “James Bond” was a code name

     No one complained when M way played by Judi Dench. Why? Because it was still respectful to Ian Fleming’s characters. This, however, is just “Wokeness über alles”

“Lynch even suggested to Waller-Bridge the possibility of a scene in which her character is on her period. ‘We had one conversation about her maybe being on her period in one scene, and maybe at the beginning of the scene […] throwing her tampon in the thing,'”

     People don’t watch James Bond films for the tampons…

     

     To summarize the expectation:

“I’ll have a soy latte, shaken not stirred”

— James Swann (née Bond)

     Thankfully, this will be the last James Bond movie… because Bond is replaced as 007 by “a brilliant, young black woman”.

     At least they didn’t turn James Bond into a trans-woman…

     Pro-tip: If you have to de facto emasculate the male characters for the female characters to be strong and confident leads, then your female characters are *neither* strong nor confident.

     O! Brave new world…

Anti-Hippocratic Oath

     The Hippocratic Oath, usually summarized by the Latin phrase “primum non nocere” (“first do no harm”), has been a millennia old concept that a physician should be a healer and not an inflictor of pain and/or death… more or less in modern times, especially with the spread and acceptance of abortion and euthanasia whereby more and more medical schools have been relaxing if not outright abandoning the Hippocratic Oath.

     Now, however, there is a move to not just abolish the essence of the Hippocratic Oath, but to instill a mirror-universe version whereby all doctors are to be required to kill via abortion or euthanasia or be banned as doctors. Thus, no practicing doctor could be trusted to uphold any semblance of the Hippocratic Oath, as any who would would be barred from medical practice.

“A bioethicist is calling for medical schools to eliminate applicants who would oppose providing medical services over objections to them based on their personal beliefs.

“…

“For Schuklenk [, a Queen’s University professor and the Ontario Research Chair in Bioethics], a possible solution to prevent such debates from cropping up at all would be to screen out would-be doctors who say they would object to providing health care on conscience grounds before they even get to medical school.

“This could be done through a survey or asking medical school applicants outright if they foresee themselves objecting to providing certain types of health care.

“’The problems that we are having now that lead to the kinds of legislation they are considering now in Alberta is caused by these sorts of doctors who prioritize their private beliefs, ultimately, over patient well-being,’ Schuklenk told Global News.

“’Medical schools, pharmacy schools should go out of their way to basically eliminate applicants who they know already will not provide these services.’”

The entire point of the Hippocratic Oath is to prioritize the patients well being, and maybe, juuust maybe, killing a patient or an unborn child isn’t good for the soon-to-be-dead’s “well being”.

Death, Rx
