Black surgeons

*Black surgeons ‘promoted far less than white colleagues in England’.*

Systemic racism affects people in many different areas of life. A Massachusetts study found that, on average, blacks convicted of crimes got longer sentences than whites convicted of comparable crimes in comparable circumstances.

Increased farming

Increased farming, which often implies deforestation, is the main cause of the possible coming extinction of half the species of trees.

One easy way to help avoid this is to help the human population decline, but having fewer or no children.

Assault on Extinction Rebellion protesters

samedi 4 septembre 2021 à 02:00

London thugs punched and bashed Extinction Rebellion protesters who had locked themselves to a bus. It sounds like the thugs broke some windows too.

The protest was nonviolent but mildly disruptive. I say "mildly" in comparison with the category 6 hurricanes, tornadoes, fire clouds and sea inundations that global heating will cause in England if Extinction Rebellion does not achieve its goal.

Internet in Kashmir

samedi 4 septembre 2021 à 02:00

India preemptively cut off the internet in Kashmir to prevent protests expected after the death (from medical problems) of a separatist leader.

Blinded by thugs

samedi 4 septembre 2021 à 02:00

Americans blinded by thugs at Black Lives Matter protests are meeting up and organizing.

It is no accident when a thug blinds someone with a rubber-coated metal bullet. If thugs followed their official rules, they would not hit anyone in the eye. Thugs shoot to maim anti-racist protesters because the thugs are racist, or right-wing, or both.

The article linked to in the first paragraph displays symbolic bigotry by capitalizing "black" but not "white". (To avoid endorsing bigotry, capitalize both words or neither one.) I object to bigotry, and normally I decline to link to articles which promote it. But I make exceptions for some articles which give important information about racism or the fight to eliminate racism. That article is one of the exceptions.
