"Ivan the Terrible and His Son Ivan on 16 November 1581[a] is a painting by Russian realist artist Ilya Repin made between 1883 and 1885. It depicts the grief-stricken Russian tsar Ivan the Terrible cradling his dying son, the Tsarevich Ivan Ivanovich, shortly after Ivan the Terrible had dealt a fatal blow to his son's head in a fit of anger. The painting portrays the anguish and remorse on the face of the elder Ivan and the shock and heartbreak of the dying Tsarevich, shedding a tear at the unexpected betrayal and shock of having been killed at his father's hands."

"critical... reality."
See, I've also read Doppelganger, and I get that "the other side" has done this with yt supremacist ideologies, the cult of the Red Hat, and all the lies. When reality shifts away from supremacy, fascism, dominion, and murder — I'm for that.

Late picking this up... he taught math to Palestinians and got his funding cut? He talked about prime numbers and treated other people — human beings — as though the could understand what he is talking about. That's it. That's his transgression. Or, was it more that he refuses to bend the knee?

The #UNGA should have moved to Zurich. #ICE is going to arrest anyone who says, " #FreePalestine" from the dais. The cruelty is the point. Even if they don't, dissent in the streets is being suppressed.

That was all before Kirk got shot in the neck — a perfect distraction to justify fomenting war with #Venezuela and #Chicago; vilifying peace activists, environmentalists, artists, workers, immigrants, lawyers, academics, comedians, and journalists. Know nothing, revel in ignorance and unreason.
