Shall we play a game?

El mejor amague de la historia no fue en el ring…
fue cuando Ringo Bonavena le hizo flinchear a Muhammad Ali y se quedó riéndose como si hubiera ganado el título.
Leyenda. 😂

Jason Arday shouldn’t be dead.

But he is dead - because he didn’t tell the truth.

And Cambridge University didn’t look for the truth - because he’s black.

And fellow black professors didn’t ask for the truth - because he is black.

Jason lied repeatedly.

And he told the exact lies that allow one to excel in the system that elite universities have adopted.

A system that factors in race, hardship, and lived experience under the banner of equity, instead of pure performance.

Nearly everyone in these institutions ignored Jason’s lies, to try and protect black people.

They called the people seeking the truth racists.

Of course there were some racists.

But the majority of people just wanted the truth.

Avoiding the truth didn’t help black people.

Double standards in academia aren’t helping black people.

They hurt the perception of black people who are truly the best, and would have held prestigious positions at elite schools, solely off the merits of their performance.

Double standards always backfire.

Even when well intentioned.

Even when intended to correct for past oppression.

Race-conscious hiring and admissions have created a situation where it is rational to wonder whether a black person has achieved their position because they were simply the best, or because they were good enough, and black.

This is not a racist thought.

It’s a rational thing to wonder when a system promotes people based on race.

It’s a thing I’ve wondered about myself, as someone who graduated from Harvard - which had race-conscious admissions.

No amount of insistence that it’s racist will make it racist.

It’s no more racist than it would be to wonder whether a white player got into the NBA off of just performance, if the NBA decided to focus on “fixing” the underrepresentation of white people.

This is the logical downside of race-conscious hiring and admissions.

You can think the downside is worth the upside.

But the downside remains.

Calling people with legitimate concerns racist didn’t protect black people.

It didn’t protect Jason.

It hurt black people who have earned their positions.

And it allowed a troubled man who built his career on lies to rise to a height so great that his fall from grace killed him.

We could have just had the truth.

Instead, we have a tragedy.

Zero debt.
7-8 hours of sleep per night.
Low body fat percentage.
Nutrition is perfect.
Mental health on track.
Zero alcohol and extremely hydrated.

This was my peak. I was 8 years old.

This is brilliant.

Best clip from the Oxford Union in a long time. A speaker suggests that he is about to display a cartoon of Muhammad to prove that Islam has a problem with free speech.

People scramble frantically to stop him: It is against the rules, unnecessary, irrelevant, disrespectful, and a procedural issue.

Finally, he reveals the image. It is a satirical cartoon about something else entirely. The audience breathes a sigh of relief.

In doing so, they prove his point for him:

Islam is incompatible with free speech.

Islam responds with violence.

And all the clever arguments are merely there to distract from what everyone knows.

@SPIDEYMUSE Y cuando alguien dice que vota a la izquierda es porque no sabe de política.

I was in Madrid when Spain won the World Cup.

Almost 2 million people celebrated in the streets.

I saw 0 violence.

0 property damage.

0 rioting.

Spain’s government later reported a total of 6 arrests, and no serious incidents.

Almost 2 million people.

Almost entirely peaceful.

When a Parisian team won the Champions League in 2026, riots broke out and trashed the city.

And it happened before that, in 2025.

And there was violence before that, in 2018, when France won the World Cup.

Guess when their celebrations were peaceful?

In 1998 - before their immigration policy created an entire population of people who didn’t assimilate.

Immigration can be great for a country.

But not when you do it without being thoughtful who you admit, how many, and for how long.

If Spain makes the same mistakes as France, soon their “celebrations” will look like Paris’s.

England is already well underway.

@Apu_elrojo Arriba @Apu_elrojo, chupapollas sectario que nos intenta vender que el gobierno más corrupto y mafioso de la historia de España debería seguir otros 4 años, porque piensa que a los demás nos gusta tanto como a él tener la polla de Sánchez metida hasta la campanilla.
