A man in India is trying to teach people not to swear at people using misogynist words.

I agree with the man's goal. I don't like attacking people based on their race or sex, and I never do that, because I don't associate rage or frustration with demographic groups. I fortunately escaped being taught that bad habit.

However, the law that prohibits all swear words (misogynist or not) is unjust -- fucking evil censorship.

The UK, by telling people not to bother with masks, has condemned medically vulnerable people to prison in their homes -- in isolation. This could last for years. It could last for their whole lives.

Xi declared short-term convenience for Chinese higher priority than the survival of civilization.

Meanwhile, in the US, the plutocrats have a veto, and they consider their profit higher priority than the survival of civilization.

Arguing that NATO can afford to commit not to bring Ukraine into NATO.

I think committing to Ukraine's neutrality could be a good path if it does includes an end to Putin's military destabilization of Eastern Ukraine. A commitment by Ukraine to respect the rights of Russian-speaking Ukrainians would make it even better.
