Anyone remember this “folksy” tweet trying to get people to not take Ivermectin because it was for farm animals? Horse dewormer and all, and definitely not-not-not for use in human beings, evah?
So now is the time where we JUXTAPOSE.
One of the inconvenient truths about the climate debate is advocates’ need to manipulate data. They’ve been doing it for decades. Picking starting points that show favorable rises in data. Ignoring anything that contradicts the current dogma. And Whoever is Running the Biden Administration (WRBA) is erasing inconvenient history.
It is the end of the semester; my students did their final semester project Presentation and last night I finished up with the giving them their final grades. One more “activity” done – six still left on the plate but this really will free up a lot of time (about a day to 2 days a week). Another month and one more will be done as well (but much less time has been spent on that this year). So, in surfing around, it looks like others are also tallying up their students’ grades – and one set of SJWs are looking to use their students’ grades as a political cudgel (translation: no boundaries in conducting political warfare and it doesn’t matter who they hurt; reformatted, emphasis mine):
Teaching assistants at the University of North Carolina have threatened to hold up to 2,200 grades if school officials do not reconsider their plan for the controversial “Silent Sam” statue. This past Monday, UNC officials announced the memorial to Confederate soldiers would be housed in a new campus facility. That evening, protesters took to the streets to voice their displeasure. On Friday, activists announced online that 79 teaching assistants had signed a petition in opposition to the Silent Sam plan, and indicated they would “withhold [the] grades” if Chancellor Carol Folt and the UNC Board of Trustees did not relent.
I believe that the operative word is extortion – and they should be legally treated as extortionists! All over the “Silent Sam” (an unknown Confederate soldier) statue that was toppled by student / SJW vandals because SLAVERY! Anything they deem to be “wrong” must be destroyed, erased, and thrown down the Memory Hole – not just put somewhere else.
Answer: yes. I’m betting that everything else was Shiny Objects and Obama only wanted to give the mullahs that planeload of currency:
Iranian officials, in a first, have admitted to facilitating the 9/11 terrorist attacks in the U.S. by secretly aiding the free travel of al Qaeda operatives who eventually went on to fly commercial airliners into the Twin Towers in New York City, according to new remarks from a senior Iranian official.
