In 1968, while teenage Red Guards beat their professors to death with clubs in Beijing courtyards, Jean-Paul Sartre sat in Paris calling Mao's Cultural Revolution a model of revolutionary democracy. The most celebrated intellectual in France looked at a country burning its own libraries and saw liberation. He sold the Maoist newspaper La Cause du Peuple on French street corners himself, holding it aloft like a sacrament. Consider what he was endorsing. Between 1966 and 1976, the Cultural Revolution killed somewhere between 500,000 and two million people. Schools shut down across the entire country. Students dragged teachers onto stages, hung placards around their necks, forced them to kneel on broken glass, then murdered them. The historian Bian Zhongyun, vice-principal of a girls' school in Beijing, died on August 5, 1966, beaten by her own students with nail-studded clubs. Sartre called this the people governing themselves. You should understand why a man this intelligent got it this wrong. Sartre believed knowledge served power, that truth was whatever the revolution required, that the individual existed to be dissolved into the collective will. So when Mao abolished the distinction between teacher and student, between expert and mob, Sartre cheered. He had spent decades arguing that bourgeois reason was a class weapon. Here was a regime taking him at his word and clubbing the reasoners to death. This is what economic illiteracy buys you. A university, a price, a contract, and a peasant's grain stockpile all carry knowledge that no central planner can seize or replicate. Mises explained the calculation problem in 1920. Hayek explained dispersed knowledge in 1945. Sartre had access to both and chose the dunce cap of the collective instead, then handed out its propaganda on the Rue de Rennes. He died in 1980, mourned by 50,000 followers, never having retracted a word about Mao. The professors of Beijing got no such funeral. They got a ditch, and a philosopher in Paris explaining that their murder was freedom.

The removal of Samuel de Champlain from Orillia was yet another salvo in the effort to strip Canadians of their history and heritage. ​There is no grand, overarching conspiracy here; rather, it is a patchwork of activists and political interests who profit from the cultural erasure of Canada and Canadians. It is a matter of power above all else, and those who dismiss the battle over symbols as a mere 'culture war' are often the very ones who have prosecuted it with the most energy. ​Orillia, and the whole of Simcoe County, is as politically blue as it gets. Where are the Conservative MPs and PC MPPs as their constituents are humiliated? My latest for @WDiminishment. withoutdiminishment.com/p/ge…

This needs no summary.

Communism sounds amazing… Until someone actually has to live under it. Then suddenly everyone wants out. Why do you think that is?

A bit odd, don’t you think? As soon as Muslims started immigrating to Japan, its Shinto shrines and Buddhist temples started burning down, just like the churches in Europe.

“I never thought I’d live to see the day when the right wing would become the cool ones giving the middle finger to the establishment, and the left wing becoming the snivelling self-righteous twats, going around shaming everyone.” - John Lydon, The Sex Pistols

Machete home invasion in Sydney last night. Four men kicked in the door of a family home at 2 AM and cut off a man's hand to terrify the family into opening up a safe. Police say the family ran a local business and were well known in the community. ''There is no indication that this is related to any organised crime. What we believe is … these people were aware that there may have been cash on the premises and that's why they were targeted.'' So if you do well in business in Australia, masked men will kick in your door at 2 AM and cut off your family's hands until somebody opens up the family safe and hands over cash. What a country.

Tens of thousands march in Toronto, Canada, in a solidarity march for Israel. 🇨🇦❤️🇮🇱

In 1979, the mullahs tortured the Shah's favourite horse to death. The horse, Azar, was paraded in the streets. They broke his legs, cut his tongue out, and then shot him in the head in front of a large crowd. Iran is occupied by demons from hell.

Here’s how Polish fans celebrate their club’s victory. Before leaving the square, they cleaned up after themselves. No one was beaten up or raped. Be Like Poland.

Alberto Paolo Signor, known as “the gentle poet” in Genoa, was brutally murdered by an African illegal immigrant. Another victim in the war against white people. After killing him, the attacker hogtied his body and left it on display in a public park like a hunting trophy.

July 26, 2020. A beach near Collingwood, Ontario. Sixteen-year-old Jamey Ruth Klassen was supposed to be enjoying a quiet family vacation beside the icy blue waters of Georgian Bay. Farther out on the lake, a man named Christopher Robertson had taken his kayak out alone for a peaceful paddle. Then the kayak filled with water and flipped. Suddenly, he was stranded in the freezing bay, clinging desperately to the overturned hull while shouting for help. Jamey didn’t hear him directly. What she heard instead were strangers nearby calling 911, panicking about a kayaker who had disappeared beneath the surface and wasn’t coming back up. Most teenagers would’ve stayed on shore. The water was brutally cold. The distance looked impossible. Lifeguards and paramedics were already being called. Waiting would’ve been understandable. Jamey never waited. She ran toward the water and dove in. Alone, she swam nearly 600 feet through Georgian Bay — the distance of two football fields — pushing herself farther and farther from shore toward the empty kayak floating in the distance. By the time she reached it, Christopher Robertson was gone. Then Jamey looked down. Through the clear Canadian water, she could see him lying motionless twelve feet below on the lake floor. She took one breath. And dove. The cold tightened around her body instantly as she reached the bottom. She grabbed Robertson beneath both arms and forced herself upward, dragging his unconscious body back toward the surface. He wasn’t breathing. His body hung limp in the water. Jamey refused to let go. She turned him onto his back, balanced his head against her shoulder, wrapped one arm across his chest, and began swimming him toward shore using only one arm and her legs. Every second became harder. Her muscles burned violently. Her lungs screamed. She had no formal lifeguard certification because the pandemic had canceled the courses she planned to take that summer. Still, she kept kicking. Then fear hit her. Jamey realized she might drown beside him before reaching shore. Exhausted and losing strength, she used the last thing she still had left: Her voice. She screamed for help. A nearby paddleboarder heard her cries and rushed across the water. Together, they lifted Robertson onto the board while Jamey, shivering and exhausted, swam the remaining distance alone. Onshore, police officers and paramedics immediately began CPR. Moments later, Christopher Robertson started breathing again. He survived. Nearly a year later, Jamey Ruth Klassen received the Carnegie Medal — North America’s highest civilian honor for heroism. Out of millions of people, only eighteen recipients were chosen that year. But Jamey barely spoke about herself afterward. Instead, she used the scholarship money from the award to attend nursing school at McMaster University, quietly continuing the same instinct that had driven her into the freezing water that day: If someone needs help, you go. No hesitation. No spotlight. No waiting for someone braver. Just a sixteen-year-old girl who saw a stranger drowning… and decided his life mattered more than her fear.

Australian media .... lookout !!

There were massive international protests over George Floyd and those police involved were severely punished with long prison sentences, yet the police responsible here did not even lose their jobs! An incredibly unjust double-standard!

The officer pretended not to care, but eventually couldn't take it anymore.

Por siglos las mujeres cristianas se tatuaron para evitar convertirse en esclavas y concubinas de los musulmanes invasores. Croacia compitió con esa simbología en Eurovisión, exaltando la resistencia de las mujeres que eligieron marcarse con cruces para preservar su libertad.
