Manus Island

mercredi 15 février 2017 à 01:00

The refugees dumped on Manus Island have to wait weeks for medical attention for serious problems, and are denied treatment rather than sending them to Australia. Then the state lies to cover it up.

It seems pretty clear that the officials in charge of this have dehumanized the refugees. I'd guess that by now most of the people employed now to deal with them dehumanize them — because the decent ones have left by now. The doctors are to some extent an exception, because they have medical ethics to strengthen them.

Sooner or later

Sooner or later an Islamist terrorist attack will kill a few Americans. The troll more or less ignores right-wing terrorist attacks, but an Islamist attack will give him a welcome opportunity for repression and massive snooping.

Americans had better prepare now to defend our freedom from the troll if and when that happens.

Sad to say, the events in Boston a few years ago show that killing even three people can lead to a nationwide media frenzy, and to irrational self-destructive responsess such as shutting down a whole large city.

Dana-Farber
