"Sarah Abdallah the fake writer, fake journalist, fake Christian is supported by Ann Coulter and both listed by 4chan /pol/ Alt Right platform.
Further, Twitter MENA is managed by an Alawite staunch supporter of Assad, Iran, Russia and Hezbollah."
hmmmmmmmmmmm
methinks there is some fuckery afoot
Closing Guantรกnamo was a Obama Campaign promise but it's Trumps fault cus he hates Muslims
Let's ban The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air most racist show EVER!
maybe that's why I liked it so much
Senpai has noticed you
SHITHOLES
Actually how he won the election
@Lowres Boy no talking in <#377519392956874752> ๐
oh sorry, I was unaware
np
the Mods are Nazis
about that one thing
Coulter *did* do some great "if great leaders sounded like Trump does about DACA" impressions the other day
Protestors destroy an H&M over a sweater
Welcome to 2018 everybody
Let's hope security cameras lead to some arrests.
What a bunch of cheeky monkeys.
>Using 3rd world child labour to make the sweater:ยฏ\_(ใ)_/ยฏ
>That sweater having something vaguely tonedeaf printed on it: <:FeelsRageMan:388246725560762368>
Was that in Africa?
the news articles say it was in South Africa
^
that's their "code of conduct"
"The core organisational principle of the EFF is democratic centralism, and discipline of all members. Democratic centralism means that decisions of the higher structures are binding on lower structures."
"No EFF public representative is allowed to go to a committee and not say anything - it must be illegal and considered dereliction of duty to stay silent in committees."
thats #23
For a second I thought it was the other EFF.
ye
"The EFF is a radical, Left, anti-capitalist and anti-imperialist movement with an internationalist outlook anchored by popular grassroots formations and struggles.", that's from their "constitution"
>Economic Freedom Fighters, a South African political party
from the EFF DISCIPLINARY CODE: "No EFF member shall commit or participate in conduct, including utterances, which amounts to: - 1.1 bringing the organisation into disrepute"
weeeeeeell
"1.6 promoting discrimination based on race, sex, origin, ethnicity or any other form of unfair discrimination"
one could argue that their demonstration did promote that
alright, I'm done with this shitshow, but it sure is fun to dig into this kind of retardness
It's South Africa, after all. Let them decolonize themselves all the way to the hunter gatherer era. Maybe they can invent the wheel this time around.
fat chance lol
".. a decade of electricity prices increasing by an average of double the rate of inflation"
"[Eskom] needs R20 billion of funding by the end of its fiscal year on March 31" (2018)
"Goldman Sachs Group Inc. in September said the utility was the biggest single risk to the South African economy and that the government needed to replace its management."
and that's just two aspects of the shitshow that is south african infrastructure
Eskom is the _sole_ supplier of electricty to the grid
- they're out of money
- they're required _by new law as of summer 2017_ to employ people in the same distribution as exists in the population, racially, and there are simply not enough black engineers
- there's already rolling blackouts continously in the major cities, the company says there's like 20% of the grid that they can't feed
I think it was something like 80% of the employees of eskom were white, and now they need to not just hire blacks, but actually replace the existing workers
"WPC Kim-Louise Carter was awarded ยฃ15,000 after failing a fitness test which involved a 10-mile run, then carrying a dog over a course before running with it a further 100 yards."
wait
money for failing?
for *failing*?
*Re-reads. again.*
"She added how she had โdug deep, real deepโ to keep up with men who had moved at a faster pace, adding: โI could lift the dog but had nothing left to carry him. I just couldnโt get any momentum.โ"
I DID MY BEST AND IF THATS NOT GOOD ENOUGH YOU ARE SEXIST
you know.
reminds me of this British army documentary
or some sort of reality TV series
about recruits
hahaha
yeah I remember that shit
and the females kept failing the jogging thing
<:thisisfine:378719407981199363>
I saw one episode by accident while I was at a hotel in Brisbane
"The judge agreed women were at particular disadvantage compared with men and awarded Miss Carter a total of ยฃ14,930 for indirect sex discrimination."
Then Robocop 2 came on afterwards so I had to stay awake for that
so she wasn't _paid_ as such for failing
.......
"women were at a particular disadvantage compared with men"
O
**RLY**??
my uncle actually made trophies and engravings for at least 3 decades in a dedicated shop in their basement
most of them were unique for the first 2 decades, he says
then came the participation ones, and he loved it, easy work
literally lol
kek
"He then allegedly grabbed a gun, fired two shots into a wall, then shot his mother before his 81-year-old father wrestled away the weapon."
da fuq beta
Autist
that feel when your 81 yr old father is stronger than you
that feel when your Dad is probably your Grandad
kek
I wonder what his political platform is
I hope Dan himself deleted that
otherwise it's extra-awkward
https://twitter.com/pnehlen/status/951517345066967040 We NEED THIS BILL TO PASS.
"outrage accomplishes nothing", I'm not sure that's a true statement
it accomplishes Sargon making a lot of youtube videos
It means we won't get zucced or banned from twitter for thought crime anymore. Think about it.
meh
too bad
let them ban us all
Hehehe
it's like how do you kill the NFL. Cancel ESPN
FUCK YOU NYTIMES EDITORIAL BOARD
opportunist cunts
(((NYT)))
I realise that economy article is regurgitating things we knew already, mostly, but I thought the graphs were nice
economist*
Good little drones
this is probably one of the stronger precursors to the death of society
We will teach them how to win! Or atleast talk to people that slightly disagree with their opinion
Which is WINNING folks
Believe me!
tigerblood?!
I don't believe that for a second
"This paper investigates the link between social media and hate crime using hand-collected data from Facebook and Twitter."
@Deleted User you're an analyst, please halp refute this nonsense study "Using a difference-in-differences design, we show that right-wing anti-refugee sentiment on Facebook predicts violent crimes against refugees in otherwise similar municipalities with higher social media usage."
"We find similar evidence for the United States, where President Trump's twitter activity strongly predicts hate crimes against the minorities targeted in his tweets, but not other minorities."
well, isn't that fucking convenient you leftist shills
"The data on the number of incidents targeting refugees were collected by the Amadeu Antonio
Foundation and Pro Asyl (a pro asylum NGO). The data cover any anti-refugee incident
within Germany ranging from anti-refugee graffiti, arson of refugee homes to assaults against
refugees."
I thought it had been pretty much conclusively proven that those arsons were always set by the refugees themselves
Also the most they can prove is coleration
I have yet to see a solid causal link
yes but the article covers this already, "This correlation is of course no guarantee of causation. However, the researchers were able to rule out several alternative theories."
"Most commenters voice strong support for the party or demand more
extreme actions, often drawing on vocabulary and expressions established by the NSDAP
and neo-Nazi groups."
biased much, bitches?!
just on the basis on that sentence alone I can disregard this whole fucking paper
"Migration powers economic growth, reduces inequalities and connects diverse societies."
"The majority of migrants live and work legally. But a desperate minority are putting their lives at risk to enter countries where they face suspicion and abuse."
A sentence full of buzzwords
yes and no citations
also, it's implied that "connects diverse societies" is a good thing
Throwing down gays from rooftops comes to mind
Such a diverse culture
I already feel enriched
As corrupt as South America AND violent as fuck
same motherfucker
though of course he has been promoted since then
"The United States, or Australia and New Zealand, are migrant societies and therefore they accommodate more readily those from other backgrounds than we do ourselves, who still nurse a sense of our homogeneity and difference from others.
"And that's precisely what the European Union, in my view, should be doing its best to undermine."
is _that_ the positive argument for reduced homogeneity?
HORRIFIC
get fucked bitch
beer brewing is my jam
"Pictures of scantily-clad women and risquรฉ names have long been used as a ploy by savvy brewers to entice punters to buy their beer. "
"Beer writer Melissa Cole said one of the "most horrific" experiences of her 20-year career was being groped at an industry event."
it's amazing to me how they can extrapolate one incident to incriminate an entire industry
"The incident happened a decade ago but a few years later, she saw him again at an event. To her horror, he made a joke about it - "Melissa knows I'm a boob man anyway".
"I was shaking with anger and shame that I didn't stand up to him back then," she said."
"I know of an old-fashioned brewery which owns pubs where the CEO hires women to work in the pubs because male customers prefer it."
STAHP THE PRESSES
Best Beer name I ever saw "Kylie's Bath Water"
"But Ed Bedington, editor of the pub industry trade publication Morning Advertiser, believes an "underbelly of misogyny" still lurks.
"It's a shame because as an industry we would benefit hugely from having more female involvement," he added."
[citation needed]
@folk ill read it more throughly later but this part in particular made me laugh.
"Our results allow us to provide a rough estimate of how many attacks against refugees would
have taken place in a counter-factual world without right-wing social media posts. Given
that the variables in our study are subject to measurement error, this calculation should be
interpreted as an illustration, rather than a precise exercise. We leave a more quantitatively
credible estimate for future research based on controlled experimental settings.
We calculate the predicted values of attacks if there where 0 anti-refugee posts on the
AfDโs Facebook page based on the conservative estimated coefficient of 14.742 in the regression
with county ร week fixed effects. Multiplying with the coefficient with the AfDusers/P op.
and Refugeeposts gives us the estimated effect on the ratio of refugee attacks to asylum
seekers. Again multiplying with the number of asylum seekers, then, is the predicted number
of attacks due to right-wing social media salience. Our results imply that in the absence of
anti-refugee posts on the AfD Facebook page 437 (13%) fewer anti-refugee incidents would
have taken place. This back-of-the-envelope calculation further illustrates the non-negligible
impact of social media."
lol, yeah just pass the buck first of all
I'm not even sure what to say about the 2nd part of that paragrahp
This paper is making my head hurt
The assumptions they are making are a joke
It seems the are only look at the number of posts
yeah, like I said just that sentence I quoted above had so much inherent bias there's really no need to read this bullshit unless you _want_ to do it for fun
Not even the content of the posts to quantify it
I am triggered
Where was this published?
Nazistani Stats
it has been published in several german outlets as well
They dont even look at it compared to the growth of refugees
Or get a baseline of "hatecrimes" per capita
yes nor do they really verify their data in a meaningful way, like you already said
๐คฆ
I cant even right now
I want to send this to TLDR
He would enjoy ripping this appart
I don't know who that is, but send it wherever you want
Well someone's gotta rip it apart
not in my estimation - it has already been sufficiently debunked for me
but I'm a Pleb
but if someone would _enjoy_ ripping it apart in detail, I would not oppose it :P
"I don't know who that is"
'Teal Deer' is a Youtube Skeptic who hates the term Skeptic Community and takes aim at everyone
he sounds pretty woke
I enjoy when he looks at scientific papers
but who does like the term Skeptic Community?
the people who use it in a derogatory manner
The White Pendragons
TL;DR fills too much time just reading shit.
Boring as fuck.
Ironic
"I'm going to film myself reading shit. I'm a CONTENT CREATOR."
hahahah all those Corbyn gobshite Remainers
but muh Corbyn will save us
That was hilarious
lol fidget spinners the freshest porn search of 2017
"Although 2017 saw a few welcome success stories, the generally dire fundraising landscape for female founders is well documented. Of the $60bn in venture capital invested the year before, just 2.19% went to women. Drill down deeper into those numbers, and the story gets much worse. Black women are trailing far behind. Between 2012 and 2014 for example, the percentage of capital they received was almost negligible at less than 0.2%."
there MUST be racism, sexism, or both below these numbers
REEEEE
"what's wrong with her?", and you go to _race_, that tells you something about her intelligence
there's so many things wrong with that cunt meghan - the first thing I'd say is "watch her UN speech"
here's a factual statement: if her UN speech makes you feel inspired, you're a moron
I think she was fit as fuck in Suits
that's the "model" who wrote those messages, and I agree that meghan markle is more fuckable
doesn't change the fact that she's a massive cunt
Says here she's 25. HOw many cigarettes has she been smoking a day since she was 5?
She looks like trash
email accounts used by stephen paddock are confirmed connected to illegal firearms sales
well, I say "illegal", I should say unlicensed, or at least secret/shady
https://ufile.io/emr95 that's some leaked search warrants
I think im going to be sick
๐คข
that's revolting
where has muh country gone
That shithole?
How expensive was the headset?
"We don't need (((them))) anymore. We can do better." jeez
I wonder what chelseas campaign platform is
"Smash the fash, destroy the patriarchy, kill Trump", probably
Women are DANGEROUS
DO NOT TOUCH
"She tells us that she wanted something from Ansari and she was trying to figure out how to get it. She wanted affection, kindness, attention. Perhaps she hoped to maybe even become the famous manโs girlfriend. He wasnโt interested. What she felt afterwardโrejected yet another time, by yet another manโwas regret."
I wonder if we have statistics on how many times men are rejected by women
"Twenty-four hours agoโthis is the speed at which we are now operatingโAziz Ansari was a man whom many people admired and whose work, although very well paid, also performed a social good."
well, [citation needed], I certainly disagree with that
"I thought it would take a little longer for the hit squad of privileged young white women to open fire on brown-skinned men. I had assumed that, on the basis of intersectionality and all that, theyโd stay laser focused on college-educated white men for another few months. But weโre at warp speed now, and the revolutionโin many ways so good and so importantโis starting to sweep up all sorts of people into its conflagration: the monstrous, the cruel, and the simply unlucky."
what is the journo _saying_ there holy shit
"Theyโre angry and temporarily powerful and last night they destroyed a man who didnโt deserve it."
amagad
but he's a man
this does not compute
On the progressive stack that doesn't look good for him
"Palestinian-born journalist Sameh Akram Habeeb is a very busy man. Since November he has been in charge of Fox News 24. He also runs the Amsterdam Times, Australia News Today, Berlin Tomorrow, Ireland Now, Moscow News Daily, the New York Herald, the Norway Post, Sydney Now, Vegas News Today and more. You might call him a global media mogul. Well, sort of.
Habeeb's version of Fox News has no connection with Donald Trump's favourite American TV station, and the rest of his media empire is not quite what it seems either. He created it in a single day โ November 25 last year โ by registering no fewer than 17 websites with names that sound like newspapers or TV channels."
"They are all listed by News Wire Now as its media "partners". The same list includes a further 28 "partner" websites registered on behalf of News Wire Now by the mysterious "Sam A". Regardless of whether they were registered by Habeeb or "Sam A", all these "partner" websites have the same IP address."
whelp, guess it's time to add some exclusion filters to my feed
"last resort" my ass
It is if Americans enter NK or any westerners for that matter

Yup but the Norway deal is a ahead of schedule ๐๐ฟ
