Violent far-right extremists

Violent Far-Right Extremists Are Rarely Prosecuted as Terrorists. Most politicians don't even want to call them "terrorists".

This reflects a bias in the structure of the legal system and government agencies.

Sherine Abdel-Wahab

dimanche 2 juin 2019 à 02:00

Egyptian singer Sherine Abdel-Wahab complained that Egypt has no freedom of speech. The military tyrants demonstrated the truth of this accusation by charging her with "insulting Egypt".

It is hardly necessary to insult a country that insults itself so effectively. The point is, don't go there.

Burned news kiosks

dimanche 2 juin 2019 à 02:00

The black bloc of the gilets jaunes burned news kiosks. Now people are donating to help the individual businesspeople that operate the burned kiosks.

It is a sad fact that nearly all crowdfunding sites require running nonfree software in order to donate. No matter how much I support a cause, I would not donate that way.
