The Dairy Oppression

Apr 15, 2021

The craziness in schools in the UK:

Environmental campaigners are trying to gather support for more plant-based meals in Brighton and Hove schools and venues.

One could see this coming from a mile away:

Ms Plaumer also told the council last month: “Arguably, there is a racist element to serving dairy too much because 65 per cent of the world’s population are lactose intolerant, many from the BAME (black, Asian and minority ethnic) community.

Sweet cheezus! Assuming that this concern is genuine, the solution is simple: lactose-free cheese. But, nope. These people want to ban animal products. Of course, if you oppose them, then you're a RAYCISSS!

A true ally

Apr 12, 2021

Hero of the Year:

In a touching act of compassion, local good Samaritan Chad Paulson saw a man being oppressed by a police officer and immediately rushed over to loot a local Target.

"It's what I'd expect anyone else with any kind of sense of right and wrong to do for me," Paulson told reporters as he ransacked the Lego section of the store, snagging a sweet new TIE fighter model and a Harry Potter set. "When we see oppression and injustice in this world, we can't sit idly by and do nothing. We must take action, find the nearest Target, Nike store, or GameStop, and loot in his name."

There are so many!

In other sports news:

Sachin Tendulkar, who was hospitalised as a precautionary measure after testing positive for COVID-19, was on Thursday discharged and is now recuperating at home in Mumbai, while staying in isolation.

Though, Sachin did go out for a few moments of cricket earlier today. Here's one photo:

No more lagaan

He looks the same as he did twenty years ago. Extraordinary!

Burn Loot Murder pays well

Apr 11, 2021

Oppression is big money in the current year:

Last week, real estate website Dirt.com reported that the “37-year-old social justice visionary” Khan-Cullors had bought a $1.4 million compound in Topanga, a remote Los Angeles neighborhood nestled deep in the Santa Monica mountains.

In L.A. terms, $1.4 million is not necessarily extravagant, though the activist took criticism for spending what would be a fortune in most other real estate markets, and for buying in a largely white neighborhood after urging people to “buy black.”

Ha! Can it get more sleazy? Yes, it can. This is her fourth property!

However, it turns out that Khan-Cullors also owns a house in the predominantly black neighborhood of Inglewood — among several other homes. The New York Post reported Saturday that she bought a $510,000 home there in 2016, which is worth about $800,000 today. She also bought a $590,000 home in South Los Angeles that is worth $720,000 today, and bought a ranch in rural Georgia for $415,000 last year, “featuring a private airplane hangar with a studio apartment above it.”

Please, don't snigger

Apr 10, 2021

Tech juggernaut Intel announced this week that they have developed artificial intelligence intended for online gaming voice chat that will censor “toxic slurs” such as “Misogyny,” “Swearing,” “Aggression,” “Ableism and Body Shaming,” “White Nationalism,” “LGBTQ+ Hate,” and the “N-Word.”

If Intel had focused more on building new chips, then they wouldn't have had their ass handed to them by AMD in the past few years.

Burn Loot Murder pays well:

Think about this: systemic racism is so rampant in our nation that a black woman can buy a "canyon compound" in one of the most affluent neighborhoods and fill it with creature comforts that kings of old couldn't have possibly imagined.

Just a modest $1.4 million house. Must be really oppressive.

So fragile

Apr 10, 2021

One more reason why 99% of the physically intensive jobs are done by men:

After a concussion, women may be at heightened risk of lasting physical and mental symptoms, a new study finds.

The study of 2,000 concussion sufferers found that women were more likely than men to still have some symptoms one year later. The problems included fuzzy memory and difficulty concentrating, as well as headaches, dizziness or fatigue.

Who knew that science could be so problematic.

The enlightened racism

Apr 08, 2021

Diversity and multiculturalism don't work for this basic reason: a legal system, and by extension the country, can't function for long when it's perverted to apply different standards to the diverse peoples. For example, if you have a health condition and you want to make a doctor's appointment, then the swiftness of the response will depend on your race.

“Offering preferential care based on race or ethnicity may elicit legal challenges from our system of colorblind law,” Harvard Medical School professors Bram Wispelwey and Michelle Morse wrote in the piece. “But given the ample current evidence that our health, judicial, and other systems already unfairly preference people who are white, we believe — following the ethical framework of Zack and others — that our approach is corrective and therefore mandated. We encourage other institutions to proceed confidently on behalf of equity and racial justice, with backing provided by recent White House executive orders.”

Diversity = Fuck you, White people.

A dangerous team

Apr 07, 2021

The third match, again, went to the very last over. South Africa fought hard but they were missing too many talented players. Pakistan wins another ODI series in South Africa.

Who would have thought that Fakhar would break the record for the highest number of runs against South Africa in a three-match ODI series after he got out for 8 (!) in the first match?  This is how the top three performed:

Imam: 70, 5, 57
Fakhar: 8, 193, 101
Babar: 103, 31, 94

Imam is often dependable, Fakhar owns two of the top three scores by a Pakistani batsman in ODIs, and Babar is one of the best in the world. If the middle order settles and clicks, then they can cause some serious havoc.

Also, Hasan Ali is back. Speaking of havoc, he was the Man of the Series in that crazy tournament four years ago.

By the power of Jab!

Apr 06, 2021

Vox Day:

I have to admit, my sympathy for anyone experiencing unexpected adverse effects from the not-vaccine is pretty close to nonexistent. These aren't infants being inoculated against their will and without their knowledge or ability to resist, after all. They are adults who one would quite reasonably expect to know better than to permit themselves to be injected with untested experimental substances on the word of people with literally billions of dollars to gain from selling the injections.

Oh just wait as new variants appear and people start lining up to get injected with new not-vaccines on a regular basis. The adverse effects will skyrocket and the companies making billions of dollars are not liable!

Nightmare scenario: Terrorists develop a virus that violently attacks those who got the not-vaccines. Millions of lives lost and trillions of dollars in economic damage. There's a bright side, at least: the real estate market will definitely cool down.

An impressive fight

Apr 04, 2021

The highest percentage of a team's total in Pakistan history:

Zaman's 155-ball 193 was heroic, a one-man show in the truest sense of the word because no other Pakistani managed more than 31 in a chase of 342. It is the highest score in a chase in ODI cricket history, and the second highest ever in a losing cause. Zaman also surpassed Herchelle Gibbs' 175 to record the highest individual score at this venue.

After Azam and Rizwan were gone, I thought that they would lose by a 100+ runs. Zaman proved me wrong. Somehow, he dragged his team all the way to the last over with a very tiny possibility of a win. He definitely deserved the Man of the Match award.

Those damn teenagers

Apr 03, 2021

A 15-year-old boy was arrested Friday in connection with an assault against an Asian couple in Washington state that was caught on video and shared widely on social media this week.

No mention of the race of the suspect in the first paragraph. So, Black male.

The attack was reported to Tacoma police at the time, police spokesperson Wendy Haddow told NBC News in an email.

"At that time the only suspect information was two black males aged 13 to 17 years," she said. "There was no known video at that time."

The media is so lame and predictable.

Not having the slightest clue

CTV News:

Video shows the driver of the crashed car emerging with a knife in his hand and starting to run at the pair of officers, Capitol Police Acting Chief Yogananda Pittman told reporters. Authorities shot the suspect, who died at a hospital.

Zero mention of his race. Conclusion: Black dude. Confirmed:

Almost choked!

Apr 02, 2021

Pakistan were 186/1 in 31.4 overs while chasing 274. They somehow managed to take the match to the very end even when they only needed three off the last over. Luck is rarely on South Africa's side.

Azam keeps going:

76 Innings required by Babar Azam to score his 13th century in ODIs, the fastest to this feat in men's cricket.

Babar's 103 is also the highest individual score by a Pakistan captain in a successful ODI chase.

Does this count as "misinformation"?

Mar 31, 2021

Pakistan’s Minister for Religious Affairs and Interfaith Harmony recently said that Pakistan’s religious minorities enjoy full religious freedom in Pakistan.

It's somewhat amusing that total religious freedom is against Islamic rules but he has to lie on the global stage and not bring attention to the ugly reality:

Pakistan’s constitution bans any religious minority from holding the role of president, prime minister or chief justice – a blatantly discriminatory measure that sends a message throughout Pakistani society on the role and status of religious minorities.

Imagine the fake outrage if the US decided that only Christians could hold political office.

What are we chasing?

Mar 30, 2021

What a bunch of incompetent buffoons:

Match officials had to stop play in unprecedented circumstances soon after Bangladesh began their chase in the second T20I in Napier, as they were unsure what their actual target was. Play had to stop nine balls into Bangladesh's innings against New Zealand because even then it wasn't clear whether their revised target was 148, 170 or 171.

This surprised me:

"[When we met the match referee] they were still waiting for the printouts and calculations to take place. I think if you are waiting, the game can't start before you get it. What was explained now was that they normally get it one or two balls into the innings, but hadn't received it yet. They were waiting for it. There were delays and all sorts of stuff. No excuses [for the defeat], but this is just very frustrating for us.

Why don't the officials and the playing teams have a simple software program that shows the dynamic par and winning scores as the first innings goes past the ten overs? Why the hell are they "waiting for the printouts and calculations" in an international game?
