The state — and state schools — must not teach any religion as truth or push it on children.

It’s simple: would Christian parents want their kids taught Islam as fact?

Or Muslims want their kids taught Christianity?

Exactly. That’s why we keep all religious indoctrination out of public education!
A very welcome ruling in Northern Ireland - supporting that basic right of freedom of/from religion. The state - and state schools - should not teach a religion as truth or push it on children.

Religious education: Supreme Court rules the Christian-focused RE taught in NI schools is unlawful
In a unanimous judgement the Supreme Court allowed an appeal by an unnamed father and daughter from Northern Ireland.

Quite impressive considering they have a panicky coach, who lost his head and his trust in his team, failed to properly coach his 2m+ locks to not get lower than the knee height off the ground whilst tackling and a medical team who were trying to keep perfectly healthy players on the field
The margin between the Boks as the best team in the world and everyone else is starting to get crazy big right now

Not genocide tho so carry on
I don't think people understand the untold horror that may be about to unfold here, with El-Fasher finally falling to the RSF

This could be historically tragic. A city of 250k on the cusp of unchecked retaliation by brutal ethnic paramilitaries

This calm, cool decency is dangerously absent from our discourse at the moment. Almost everyone is embracing, normalising or ignoring the 'cruel bigotry, compulsive violence, and the sadistic persecution which has characterised the philosophy and practice of fascism.'

“…a slightly boiled-looking person…” 😂

The sad thing about this excellent piece and its irrefutable logic is that the people who have the most need to read it and understand it have pillows over their faces and fingers in their ears
The white right and its sturmpodcasters claim that white people are disappearing because of a Great Replacement and 'white genocide'. For them, the truth behind the numbers is far too horrific to contemplate. My latest, free to read. anotherdayinparadisewithtomeaton.substack.com/p/the-curiou...

Same guy who declared bankruptcy 6 times shut down the U.S. government 4 times in 5 years of being President. They wanted him to run the government like his businesses and that’s exactly what he’s doing.

I stopped reading Guardian movie and TV show reviews a long time ago. This is a classic example of why.

There’s a desperate need for the people who do these reviews in the Guardian to scream “look at me, look at me!”

MAGA denunciations is one way of mobilising Americans to challenge the power of the ‘deep state’ and the liberal elites. When Stalin was presiding over his Cultural Revolution, this was called ‘mobilising the masses’ against ‘bourgeois liberal’ elites. www.lrb.co.uk/the-paper/v4...

Yeah, that’s bad but not as bad as the systemic and ongoing rape and murder of women and children in Sudan
I think the Kimmel stuff is quite serious and bad, but taking a rich guy off the air for speech is not as harsh as agents of the state grabbing someone over speech and deporting them without due process, and the latter person is clearly more vulnerable, come on.

Focusing on the really important aspect of this disaster hey?

Rather than how the evangelical Christian fundamentalists in the USA are funding and protecting Israel so that Jesus‘ second coming can come quicker.

Same as how the USA and Great Britain supported apartheid South Africa

Where’s your empathy? Really?

Big sigh. Watch this.

Can you see why the Yankees’ moment of silence, the lowered flags, the promise of the Presidential Medal of Freedom, feel like a gut punch to the very people he spent years targeting?

No one wished death on this man, but what we’re seeing right now is too f*cking much.
