I attended a virtual panel discussion yesterday on the attainment gap and what HEIs could do.. the academic on the panel mused about accrediting attending a BLM march.. My thought was Dante would be chucking his laptop out the window right about now
 
On the contrary, I'd just nod along and agree with how stunning and brave the idea is. It requires far less effort for me to fake being woke then it does for me to fake being human, a god send for autistics, I can spend all of that spare mental energy solving equations instead, win win.

The attainment gap will get wider. Might have something to do with teaching kids a bunch of woke crap in school. They never learn to add. The rich kids get expensive tuition sessions and enrichment activities, the poor kids get woke. Maybe the teachers should spend more time worrying about how to teach the fucking kid quantum mechanics, than rushing around trying to find examples of black non-binary physicists to make their lessons woke. That'd work in reducing the attainment gap. But what the fuck does dantes know about quantum mechanics? I'm sure it's far more important to be woke.

Sounds like fake news, the Cuban protestors are just a wonderful example of people exercising their right to protest, just like the Colombian protestors last month. It's a virtue, a good thing, you should all love to see it.
 
Hmm. How likely is it that anyone would actually dare leak documents from Putin's Kremlin? Unless of course they're a confection by the Kremlin itself.
 
On Friday, the House oversight committee released notes of a 27 December telephone call from Trump to then acting attorney general Jeffrey Rosen, in which Trump told Rosen: “Just say the election was corrupt + leave the rest to me and the R congressmen.” The notes were taken by Richard Donoghue, Rosen’s deputy, who was also on the call.

This revelation is hugely important.

Rosen obviously rejected Trump’s request. But what if Rosen had obeyed Trump and said to the American public that the election was corrupt – and then “left the rest” to Trump and the Republican congressmen? What would Trump’s and the Republicans’ next moves have been? And which Republican congressmen were in cahoots with Trump in this attempted coup d’état? Make no mistake: this was an attempted coup.

Trump knew it. Just weeks earlier, then attorney general William Barr said the justice department had found no evidence of widespread fraud that could have overturned the results. And a few days after Trump’s call to Rosen – on 2 January – Trump told Brad Raffensperger, Georgia’s secretary of state, to “find” votes to change the election outcome. He berated Raffensperger for not doing more to overturn the election.

Emails released last month also show that Trump and his allies in the last weeks of his presidency pressured the justice department to investigate totally unsubstantiated claims of widespread election fraud – forwarding them conspiracy theories and even a draft legal brief they hoped would be filed with the supreme court.

Fourth officer who responded to US Capitol attack dies by suicide

A fourth police officer who defended the US Capitol during the 6 January insurrection by extremist supporters of Donald Trump is now confirmed to have taken his own life. Washington DC’s Metropolitan police department (MPD) confirmed late Monday that another of their officers, Kyle DeFreytag, died by suicide earlier in July, just hours after declaring that MPD officer Gunther Hashida killed himself on 29 July. In January MPD officer Jeffrey Smith, a 12-year veteran of the force, and Capitol police officer Howard Liebengood, a 16-year veteran, both of whom also responded to the 6 January attack, died by suicide.

The hearings have been going on this week. Perhaps they watched the "evidence" and started talking about how it was bullshit in front of the wrong people. Or perhaps they were traumatised and it brought back terrible memories. I'd say the former is more likely.
 
A couple of people I know have topped themselves in the last few weeks. They don't know the Clintons or Trump. There's a lot of it about at the minute, it seems.
 
That it was a black flag ops by antifa?

I don't know what that means.

But lots of stuff reported by the media about it has turned out to be untrue, like the circumstances of the death of the officer who died on duty there.

It seems it was all known well in advance and could have been prevented. The camera men on scene filming seemingly staged bits make it look somewhat suspect.

The gates being removed, the doors being opened etc etc. Security numbers being usually low. It all looks like it was staged to allow a narrative to be strengthened. And the more that has come to light about it, the more questionable the whole thing had become.

The John Sullivan fella that was arrested seems like a hired protestor - he'll turn up at any cause and was on site to provide film

Gotcha. Suicide because they felt stupid, definitely more likely yeah.
 
Since when did "died by suicide" become the correct terminology? Raheem levels of grammar. Is this to avoid his family suing the newspapers for falsely claiming he committed suicide? Died by takes the question of who did it away to a large extent.
