Thousands Flee Paris Ahead of New COVID Lockdown

30th October 2020

Read it.

Thousands fled Paris Thursday night causing 430 miles of traffic jams in and around the French capital as residents evacuated just before a nationwide stay-at-home order was to take effect to stem a second surge of infections from the novel coronavirus.

As of midnight Parisian time, people were ordered to stay at home except for essential work or medical reasons, resulting in many relocating to more rural areas to wait out the month-long lockdown, the BBC reported.

Video posted to Twitter showed never-ending streams of crawling headlights on every road in every direction. There also were reports of restaurants jammed with diners enjoying a last meal out for the time being. Heavy traffic also was reported in and around the cities of Lyon and Bordeaux.

I hope they remember this next election.

An officer questioned 28-year-old Junior Alexander Cabral and 20-year-old Vladimir Cabral Cuevas and noticed a bag of mail and a tool used to fish out mail from a drop box in the front seat of the suspect’s car. Two ballots were separate from the other mail, according to records, per the AP.

Let’s see, Cabral and Cuevas — obviously Republicans.

Kent State, Nationwide

28th October 2020

Severian blows the whistle.

In an offline, a reader* argues that the Biden/Harris ticket isn’t just a “protect the brand” sacrificial lamb, as I’ve been suggesting. Rather, this is the prelude to them pulling the trigger on massive civil unrest nationwide, which has been the plan all along – go all in; force Trump to roll the tanks. They want another Kent State, in other words, only this time, it’s everywhere.

…

…unless the pollsters are in on it. We can excuse 2016 — they were wishcasting. They ended up with egg on their faces, but it wasn’t a job killer. This time it will be. The only explanation I can think of that makes sense is that yeah, they’re in on it. The “Biden is leading yuuuuge!” narrative is exactly that, a narrative, so that when Trump wins, the Democrats can jump up and exclaim that the very fact Biden was up so big, yet lost, proves that the GOP rigged the election. And then the riots start for real.

China’s Stateless Nations

28th October 2020

Read it.

The Communist Party has begun expanding the concept of the nation, attempting to create a new type of global entity. But back home, large numbers of people within the country’s borders no longer see themselves as Chinese at all. From Kashgar to Causeway Bay, millions of citizens are beginning to define themselves in direct opposition to the status that appears on their passports. Today we find that the very notion of a “Chinese” identity is being alternately stretched and compressed, warped and concertinaed, and our old classificatory grid provides us with no meaningful guide.

First, the expansion. The Chinese authorities are looking to win recruits to their hyper-nationalist cause, and so Party propaganda now preaches a new China—a China that includes not only the 1.4 billion citizens living within the country’s borders, but also the huaqiao (Chinese citizens living overseas) and the huaren (ethnic Chinese with foreign citizenship).3 “The unity of Chinese at home requires the unity of the sons and daughters of Chinese abroad,” according to a CCP teaching manual for United Front cadres. The Party hopes that by appealing to these vast groups, it can “awaken their ethnic consciousness,” in the semi-mystical words of He Yafei, deputy chief of the Party-run Overseas Chinese Affairs Office (OCAO).

Hitler’s vision was not so all-embracing.

Google’s New Logos Are Bad

28th October 2020

Read it.

Google really whiffed with the new logos for its “reimagination” of G Suite as Google Workspace, replacing icons that are familiar, recognizable, and in Gmail’s case iconic if you will, with little rainbow blobs that everyone will now struggle to tell apart in their tabs. Companies always talk loud and long about their design language and choices, so as an antidote I thought I’d just explain why these new ones are bad and probably won’t last.

I agree. They suck.

A male deli customer in Queens, New York, was shot dead Monday evening by a homeless man who had just been kicked out of the store prior to the murder.

The victim, 26-year-old Mohmediyan Tarwala, was rushed to Jamaica Hospital Medical Center, where he was pronounced dead after being shot twice in the stomach at Cross Bay Express Deli, according to the NYPD police report.

New Border Wall in Arizona Stopping Smugglers

27th October 2020

Read it.

A new border wall, stretching nearly 100 miles, is getting results in western Arizona.

The Washington Examiner noted that over the last three years, crews have constructed about 90 miles of border wall and nearly 40 miles more of a parallel, back-wall in the Yuma border patrol region.

“Two thousand, nine hundred drive-through vehicles came through Yuma sector alone in one year,” recalled Border Patrol’s head of the Yuma region Anthony Porvaznik. “We caught maybe one out of 10 of those, if that. So, we have no idea what got away at that point because there was no fence.”

Man Reportedly Arrested After Allegedly Destroying Altar At Catholic Church

27th October 2020

Read it.

The vandalism follows more than a dozen other crimes targeting Catholic Churches across the country, prompting lawmakers to call on federal authorities to investigate the incidents as religiously motivated. Most recently, the New York Police Department investigated a vandalism at a Brooklyn church in October,  where a Virgin Mary statue had its hand cut off and was cracked along the head, according to ABC 7. A few weeks prior, police in San Antonio investigated vandalism at a Catholic seminary where glass doors were struck and damaged, and a crucifix was desecrated.

Maybe he was a fan of the pre-Vatican II liturgy and wanted the altar turned back around the way it was for the first 1900 years of Church history. Such people exist; I have met them.

Subsequently the University conferred graduation prizes on two of the mob members for their “service of race and ethnic relations,” and for their “anti-racist” work.

How 30 Lines of Code Blew Up a 27-Ton Generator

24th October 2020

Read it.

Earlier this week, the US Department of Justice unsealed an indictment against a group of hackers known as Sandworm. The document charged six hackers working for Russia’s GRU military intelligence agency with computer crimes related to half a decade of cyberattacks across the globe, from sabotaging the 2018 Winter Olympics in Korea to unleashing the most destructive malware in history in Ukraine. Among those acts of cyberwar was an unprecedented attack on Ukraine’s power grid in 2016, one that appeared designed to not merely cause a blackout, but to inflict physical damage on electric equipment. And when one cybersecurity researcher named Mike Assante dug into the details of that attack, he recognized a grid-hacking idea invented not by Russian hackers, but by the United State government, and tested a decade earlier.

The Unapologetic Bias of the American Left

22nd October 2020

Victor Davis Hanson.

An avuncular Walter Cronkite, John Chancellor, Jim Lehrer, or Abe Rosenthal at least went through the motions of reporting news that was awkward or even embarrassing to the Left. Their agenda was 1960s-vintage Great Society liberalism, seen as the natural evolution from the New Deal and post-war internationalism. Edward R. Murrow, the ACLU of old, and Free Speech Movement at Berkeley—these were their liberal referents. Those days are gone.

Yet even during the Obama years, when studies showed the president had received the most slanted media honeymoon in news history, overt media bias was, at least, as hotly denied as it intensified. There were still a few ossified, quarter-hearted efforts now and then to mention the IRS scandal, the surveillance of Associated Press reporters, the various scandals embroiling the Veterans Administration, General Service Administration, the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms, and the Secret Service. But even that thin pretense is over now, too.

Biden’s Health Care Plans Would Spell End of Private Insurance

20th October 2020

Read it.

President Donald Trump’s key debating point on health policy is substantively correct: Former Vice President Joe Biden’s health proposal would progressively eliminate Americans’ private health insurance and back Americans into a single-payer system of government-controlled health insurance.

In Canada, for example, you have to go to the government for your health care. As a result, people who can’t afford the long lines and denial of coverage by bureaucrats have to come to the U.S. to get help — but where would WE go?

Microschools Are a Big Success; the NEA Is Attacking Them for It

20th October 2020

Read it.

Unions really don’t like competition.

One of the few bright spots of 2020 has been the embrace of new educational options for kids. The greatest success has been the “microschool” model, where five to ten students gather in a home and receive instruction from one or more teachers. And the nation’s largest labor union is furious about it.

In a recent poll, about one-third of parents already participate in a learning pod, while over half have either joined or are looking to form one. Teachers love microschools as well, with nearly 70 percent expressing interest in teaching in one.

You would think that a group called the “National Education Association” would be thrilled that so many kids are being educated. You’d be very wrong. The NEA is primarily concerned with the money spigot flowing into traditional public schools. And if public schools bar their doors, they want every child to be left behind.

Politico Spins Hunter Biden Email Story as Possible Russian Disinformation  If it were actually misinformation (i.e. false), then the Bidens and their campaign would have immediately denied it. The fact that they (and their sock-puppets) haven’t done so leads me to suspect that it’s all true.

The Facts About Voter Fraud

16th October 2020

Read it.

Are you worried about the extent to which voter fraud could affect the 2020 election? Do you puzzle over how tens of millions of mail-in ballots can be processed in a manner that ensures that each voter only votes once? Are you concerned that if states mail out millions of mail-in ballot applications to people who are dead, moved to a different state, fictitious, or ineligible to vote, quite a few will be filled out by someone else and sent back in? Are you unable to understand how ballot harvesting can fail to lead to voter fraud? Are you concerned that your vote may be canceled out by one that is cast illegally?

A Blue-Collar Philosopher

16th October 2020

The Other McCain.

Our education system, and the elite culture that this system influences, is now organized around a concept of “diversity” that is explicitly anti-white and anti-male.” To be a white male in America is to be persona non grata at Yale, Harvard, Stanford, etc. No one in our education system expends any effort to encourage young white males in their dreams or ambitions. Everything taught in the classroom stigmatizes white males, and administrative policy is to hinder (if they cannot actually prohibit) white males from academic achievement. The result of this discrimination is that there are great number of talented and intelligent young white men who have turned their backs on the education system….

What Is Mathwashing?

15th October 2020

Read it.

There is a widely held belief that because math is involved, algorithms are automatically neutral.

This widespread misconception allows bias to go unchecked, and allows companies and organizations to avoid responsibility by hiding behind algorithms.

Who Is Funding the Lincoln Project?

13th October 2020

Read it.

Following the money can answer many questions, especially when it comes to the virtue merchants. The Lincoln Project exudes virtue, but selling virtue can be very profitable. A group of elites that may be engaging in class warfare by protecting their elite political status.

They have endorsed Joe Biden, and needless to say, will be immune to the policy decisions of a Biden administration. Defunding police departments, no school choice, and the loss of blue-collar jobs will not affect them. They can afford a Tesla, so no fracking, no problem.
