I care about everything and abhor injustice

This man speaks so much sense.

I studied in the academic department at Cambridge that later employed Jason Arday. Here's just some of the crap I learnt: For one module, I wrote a lengthy essay about how cultural products like kids’ cartoons and jazz songs serve as instruments of capitalist oppression. I got a top mark on that paper (despite knowing at the time that I was essentially regurgitating complete crap).

While studying for another paper I had a debate with the professor, an eminent anthropologist, because she insisted that native tribes could fly through the trees - not metaphorically, but that they could literally fly because they believed they could fly. After all, who are we to question ‘indigenous ways of knowing’...

For a different course, I read long ‘research papers’ which argued that the fact that black kids are excluded from schools more than white kids proves systemic racism exists in education. Crucially, they ignored the fact that white kids are excluded more than, e.g., Japanese kids, a statistic which, applying the exact same logic, would suggest that the education system is systemically biased in favour of, erm, Japanese kids (which obviously it isn’t).

Something that was held up as proof of the existence of this largely imaginary racism was that teachers tell kids not to use booming voices in the classroom, and not to put up their hoods or wear their trousers down below their pants.

On another occasion, my supervisor casually praised some students agitators who were trying to shut down a talk by someone they disagreed with. I said that I didn’t think this was something to celebrate, because I believed in freedom of speech. He got visibly angry, and proceeded to tell me that free speech was not worth protecting in a capitalist system (or something along those lines).

In my all-important final year, a lecturer let me know that I shouldn’t worry too much about my exam results, because as someone who was not from an upper class background I should be more focussed on using my grasp of leftist revolutionary theory to further the interests of the proletariat. Writing this down, it strikes me that it’s so hilariously mental that some of you will presumably assume I’m lying. But there’s no way I’m leaving it out, because it happened.

Unlike the academics who make a living from this stuff, I couldn’t bring myself to build a career pumping out whiney, divisive, intellectually incoherent rubbish. But others, as we’ve seen exposed in recent days, do so with gusto. And are lauded for it.

Please read the full piece this is taken from, and give it a share. I've linked it in the tweet below.

Mi nombre es Shani Louk, soy una joven judía de 23 años, fui asesinada por terroristas palestinos el 7 de octubre — mi cuerpo sin vida fue paseado por Gaza en la parte trasera de una camioneta de Hamás.

Los civiles inocentes de Gaza me ultrajaron con escupitajos, palazos, insultos y maldiciones. Yo les aseguro que no hay inocentes allí.

Me convertí en un símbolo internacional del terror que azotó ese día, pero yo hubiera preferido estar viva y continuar con mis sueños, como los de todos Uds.

No me olviden, soy Shani Louk.

Andy Burnham praised the good people of Piddington on GB News and promised to listen. Then he vanished.

@andyburnham

No call. No meeting. No contact with 7 year old Rex, his family or our parish council.

Follow us as it’s about to go large!

Now Piddington is cited in the ECHR debate. How loud must we roar before politicians stop lying?

Meanwhile even before the Government has published the Crown Development Plan under Urgent measures contractors are working on site!! The living pods are arriving next week!

How can this be allowed?

Because the areas they will be deposited to are below and Braintree has been hit Bad!!
