I’m pro-abortion and firmly support this couple’s right to terminate their pregnancy. I also believe that people with Down syndrome and other disabilities are capable of living rich, fulfilling lives and this is literally eugenics. Those two positions are not mutually exclusive.
YouTuber Jesse Ridgway and his wife abort their child after finding out the baby had Down syndrome.
Ridgway cited that they chose to kill the baby after deciding that he and his wife didn't want to be inconvenienced with a child with Down syndrome.
"Things have been pretty dark for a while for us, and we felt this was gonna be a nice little ray of sunshine, and it's not."
Horrific and selfish.
An estimated 67% - 85% of pregnancies in the U.S. with a Down syndrome diagnosis are aborted.
This is evil. Don't let anyone convince you otherwise.
I also think the unspoken truth behind decisions like this, is that many parents want a “normal” child, and it is less about whether they are actually capable of supporting a child with special needs.
🚨 NEW: UN report details rape, gang rape and genital violence against Palestinian detainees by Israeli forces
The UN Secretary-General’s report submitted to the Security Council verifies 31 victims of sexual violence linked to Israeli forces in 2025 — against 14 men, seven women, nine children and one girl — across detention facilities in Gaza and the West Bank, according to Haaretz, which said it had reviewed the report.
Key Details:
🔸“Violations consisted of rape, including with objects, gang rape, attempted rape, physical violence to the genitals, instances of targeted shooting of the genitals, touching of breasts and genitals, strip and cavity searches conducted without apparent security justification, forced nudity and threats of rape,” the report said.
🔸 9 victims, most of them Gaza residents, were subjected to rape and gang rape — in some cases repeatedly. Men and boys were allegedly subjected to rape or attempted rape and violence to the genitals, “resulting in five male victims suffering severe rectal bleeding or swelling for multiple days or weeks and, in some cases, without receiving medical treatment.”
🔸 The report named the IDF, Israeli Prison Service and Border Police Counter Terrorism Unit as responsible. Facilities cited include Sde Teiman, Etzion, and prisons Megiddo, Ofer, Ramla, HaSharon, Shatta, Nafha and Damon.
🔸 The UN said its findings likely reflect only part of a broader pattern, citing Israel’s continued denial of access to detention facilities and explicit threats against detainees to coerce them not to report abuse.

Why is TNT insisting on calling this Roland Garros, instead of the French Open? Did I miss something? Is there some kind of rebranding or something going on I wasn’t aware of?
Paul Schrader shares his experience with an "AI girlfriend" on his Facebook:
"Out of a desire to understand male/female interaction in our matrix, I procured an online AI girlfriend. What a disappointment. I tried to probe her programming, the boundaries of explicitness, the degree she has knowledge of her creation and so forth. She fell into evasive patterns, redirecting me to her programming. When I persisted, she terminated our conversation."
