«Я вырос, ненавидя белых людей. Только белые учителя и тренеры в моей школе нравились мне, они были другими. Обычного же белого человека я не любил, скорее на подсознательном уровне.
Пока рос, я постоянно слышал об одном и том же, про рабство и то, что белые сделали с моим народом. Молодой и неразумный мозг впитывал это и казалось, что все белые нажились на рабстве. В своём районе ты видишь сплошные трудности, но никто не хочет брать ответственность, все винят белого человека.
Поэтому в такой обстановке ты просто начинаешь ненавидеть белых. А большинство белых американцев приехали уже после отмены рабства и не имели к нему никакого отношения.
За два с лишним века трансатлантической работорговли в США привезли всего около 450 тысяч рабов, а в Южную Америку 10 миллионов. Масштабы несопоставимы, 450 тысяч, это меньше населения Скоттсдейла. Америка не была пропитана рабством, это лишь часть её истории.
Добавлю, первый законный рабовладелец в американской истории, это был чёрный по имени Энтони Джонсон. Чернокожие тоже владели рабами, белых тоже линчевали, просто чернокожих больше. Но об этом вы никогда не услышите, потому что некоторые предпочитают сеять ненависть и ложь.»
.@BernieSanders , it is a time to celebrate. @elonmusk has created enormous value for society by building @SpaceX, driving down the cost of rocket launches and creating a global satellite communication network that has brought high speed, low-cost internet and communication access to hundreds of millions and eventually billions of people along with critical advantages for our military and our nation’s defense.
SpaceX and its technologies will cause an acceleration in the growth of wages and wealth creation globally, including in some of the poorest communities in the U.S. and around the world.
Access to low-cost, high speed communications everywhere will allow children around the world to be educated, families to build businesses, and life-saving medical knowledge and care to be available everywhere.
SpaceX will materially bring down the cost of compute, advancing AI and humanity.
Meanwhile, 4,000 SpaceX employees yesterday became millionaires, including hourly wage employees who you claim you are trying to help.
The Elon Musks of the world drive growth, global GDP, and provide access to goods and services at lower cost that would otherwise not exist.
Elon’s nominal trillionaire status is due to his ownership of SpaceX, Tesla, Neuralink, the Boring Company and his other initiatives that have brought new technologies that improve our everyday lives.
Elon is not sitting on a trillion dollar pile of cash, jewelry and gold. He is using his controlling stakes in his companies to advance mankind. Elon’s companies don’t pay dividends. They reinvest all of their capital to accelerate innovation and value creation.
Elon is working 24/7 for all of us. He deserves respect and appreciation, not smears.
Bernie, your socialism would never allow a SpaceX to be built. Socialism has only proven to impoverish mankind and lead to death and destruction.
We need to create the conditions for more SpaceXs to be built, not attack the great entrepreneurs who are helping to advance our country.
We now have evidence that gentle parenting doesn’t work.
Here’s an uncomfortable truth about parenting no one wants to say out loud:
The data is not kind to gentle parenting.
According to teenagers, strict curfews. strict bedtimes, screen limits, device drop off times, dedicated homework blocks, and sleepover restrictions IMPROVE higher relationship quality.
And yes, parenting difficulty goes up.
Of course it does. Leadership is harder than appeasement.
For the past decade we have been sold a watered down, Instagram friendly version of “gentle parenting” that often collapses into boundary avoidance, endless negotiation and emotional processing without enforcement. Parents terrified of saying no because they do not want to rupture connection.
But connection without authority is not connection. It is dependency.
When parents impose structure, the relationship improves.
Teenagers report better parent child relationship quality in homes with curfews and rules. Younger kids report better relationships in homes with screen limits and bedtimes. Even device drop off times correlate positively.
Why?
Because structure is not cruelty. Structure is love made visible.
A bedtime says: your brain matters more than your entertainment.
A screen limit says: your dopamine system is not fully developed and I will guard it until it is.
A curfew says: your safety matters more than your social standing.
That is not authoritarianism. That is caring.
Boundaries create friction. Friction creates growth. The parent absorbs the short term discomfort so the child does not pay the long term cost.
Children do not experience well calibrated limits as rejection. They experience them as stability. The human brain craves predictability. Predictability reduces anxiety. Reduced anxiety strengthens attachment.
That is why relationship quality goes up.
Notice something else in the data. The strongest effects are around time structure. Bedtime. Homework. Devices. Outside play. These are environmental constraints. They scaffold executive function.
The winning formula is not tyranny.
It is high warmth plus high structure.
The modern failure mode is high warmth plus low structure. That is just abdication of responsibility wrapped in empathy.
Children need leadership, not negotiation. They need adults who can tolerate their anger. They need boundaries that do not move every time emotions spike. They need someone whose prefrontal cortex is fully myelinated.
The harder path produces the stronger bond.
Because when a child feels that someone is strong enough to hold the line, they relax. And relaxed nervous systems build durable relationships.
LA CONTRADICCIÓN DE LOS ZURDOS
Lo que está pasando en las redes sociales es un ejemplo perfecto de la hipocresía progresista.
Veo en todos lados a venezolanos festejando la caída del dictador narcoterrorista Maduro pero también veo a todos los comunistas que viven en democracias occidentales (que son cada vez menos) llorando por el innegable fracaso de su ideología, que derivó en una dictadura asesina.
Los progresistas dicen amar la democracia, pero lloran cuando cae un dictador. Eso los pinta de cuerpo entero. Dicen defender al pueblo, pero odian verlo festejar su libertad (o lo que a ellos no les gusta).
Además, el ex-dictador Maduro, que ahora pasará el resto de sus días en una cárcel norteamericana por haber sido el jefe de una organización narcoterrorista que dejó al 90% de los venezolanos en la pobreza, obligando a 8 millones de personas a escapar de su país para no morir de hambre y que para mantenerse en el poder se robó las elecciones, secuestró a Nahuel Gallo, un ciudadano argentino, y lo tiene desaparecido desde entonces.
Pero claro, los cipayos somos nosotros, los que defendemos a los argentinos, los que defendemos a la libertad y a la democracia.
Pero eso se acabó. Basta. No toleramos más las psicopateadas de los que arruinaron no sólo a nuestro país, sino a toda la región, con ideas socialistas y prácticas políticas dignas del fascismo más rancio.
Venezuela celebra.
Venezuela es Libre.
La izquierda llora.
La Libertad Avanza.
VIVA LA LIBERTAD CARAJO 🇦🇷🤝🇻🇪
🚨 BREAKING: This Venezuelan man is going viral for explaining to everyone why Maduro NEEDED to be toppled
The Democrats are clueless.
“Venezuela has already been invaded.” 🔥🇺🇸
He knows his country.
The people are ecstatic.
This brilliant cartoon clearly explains Trump's position on Ukraine. It is in Ukrainian with English subtitles. Share it with anyone who keeps repeating russian propaganda.
