Hong Kong Police sent close to 300 policemen to Canada to participate in the police game, Such anti human right terrorist organisation should be sanction from entering Canada.

Having freedom in the West does not mean Chinese students should support #genocide and be proud of it. Having met a few nationalists like this one does not surprise me about his attitude. But it does scare me how nationalists use freedom in democracies.
Those damned climate protestors walking slowly, causing havoc and delays in Rhodes this afternoon.
Oh, wait- sorry it’s the climate causing the havoc.
Mass holiday evacuations have now begun. Perhaps we should build more wind farms or something.

This is incredibly concerning marking a further escalation in the #CCP’s chilling repression in #HongKong. I stand with @nathanlawkc and urge UK Govt to wake up to the systemic threat China poses and to tell China its nefarious activity is not acceptable.

Totally, utterly and completely outrageous and unacceptable to harass the innocent family of a courageous exiled activist
I stand with my friend @nathanlawkc and urge @JamesCleverly to act

Ok, let’s get this right… It’s an illegal mine, operating without a licence for 8 months, over which time the illegal coal has released close to a million tonnes of C02. But the police are arresting the protesters trying to stop criminal action. Hmmm. On whose authority?
THIS IS GREAT!
🚨🚨🚨BREAKING: Arizona Attorney General Kris Mayes tells the U.S. Supreme Court to shove it!
Here are the facts. 👇
Arizona has a law on the books — much like the Colorado law the Supreme Court struck down — that says, in simple terms, a business open to the public can’t discriminate against gay people.
After the radical right-wing majority of the U.S. Supreme Court issued a ruling last week that said a web designer could refuse to design wedding websites for same-sex couples, Arizona Attorney General Kris Mayes announced she would enforce the law on the books anyway —
The Supreme Court be damned! 🔥🔥🔥
Not in Arizona, according to Mayes.
She will 'continue to enforce' Arizona's law. 👇
“Despite today’s ruling, Arizona law prohibits discrimination in places of public accommodation, including discrimination because of sexual orientation and gender identity.
“If any Arizonan believes that they have been the victim of discrimination on the basis of race, color, religion, sex (including sexual orientation and gender identity), national origin, or ancestry in a place of public accommodation, they should file a complaint with my office.
I will continue to enforce Arizona’s public accommodation law to its fullest extent.”
Smash the 💙 if you appreciate the Arizona AG for STANDING UP for Human Rights! 🏳️🌈
This is unbelievable!
Kurt Wüthrich, an 84-year-old, Swiss, male scientist, who won the Nobel Prize in 2002 claims that "as a male scientist" he has "a feeling of discrimination."
He said this during the 72nd Lindau Nobel Laureate Meeting on a panel that had four old, male scientists including him and an old, male moderator. (It was literally a susage fest!)
When Science Magazine asked him to elaborate on the kind of discrimnation he faced, "Wüthrich said he did not feel personally discriminated against as an individual at the event but thought that all men attendees faced discrimination while women were tokenized."
Here's an example of the discrimination Kurt Wüthrich, a Nobel Prize winner, gave:
In group photos of laureates, women laureates were asked to stand in front while male scientists like him were told to stand behind them 🤦😂😭
This makes him feel "horrible" because asking women laureates to stand in front is "ridiculous, fully ridiculuous."
A young scholar countered Wüthrich's childish tantrum and the moderator tried to shut her up.
For reference, here's a comparison:
Nobel Prizes won:
By men: 892
By women: 60
Speakers invited to this year's Lindau meeting:
Men: 34
Women: 5
------
A couple of observations:
1. The feeling among men that gender equality is somehow a form of discrimination against them is not limited to incels (involuntary celibates) on the internet.
Male Nobel Prize winners can feel the same way too.
2. Many young scholars and scientists are still playing the "prestige" game: do a PhD in a "prestigious" university, do a postdoc in a "prestigious" lab, go to "prestigious" meetings like Lindau.
Playing the prestige game takes a lot of toll on one's mental health and personal relationships. The worst part is make you feel extremely insecure.
No amount of external validation, not even a Nobel Prize, will help you overcome your insecurities.
I'm just extremely confused. Like the INTERNET COMPANY Google. The CLOUD SERVICES PROVIDER Google. The company who's success partially rests on us trusting them to DO THE WORLD WIDE WEB GOOD. Is like... domain names? Not for us. We're gonna let this WYSIWYG CMS handle that.
CSS Tip! ⚡️
If you want your CSS transforms to be positioned in the 3D-space, use "transform-style: preserve-3d;" 🤖
Here's what happens when you use it in your CSS art and go a little heavy on the transform 😅
"CSS, Cascade!"

Once John Lee sets foot in the U.S., any human rights-related sanctions will be automatically deemed as useless, invalid, and non-existent.
