Believe in science:" EU kicks off COVID-19 vaccine campaign

A Racial Slur, a Viral Video, and a Reckoning
Okay, he taught a 16 year old girl that she did wrong four years ago and should be punished for it for at least the next 10 or 20 years, but I was amazed at the "school principle who declined to take action, citing ... the fact that the offensive behavior took place outside school." Doesn't this school principle realize that his school should be part of the criminal justice system?
But the Trumpettes and MAGAts don't believe in science. They know that science is a Democratic hoax.
Me, I, My, Mine

Boris Johnson ‘sacrificed’ Britain’s fishing industry to get deal with EU, fishermen say
Good. This was inconsequential anyway. Glad to sell out an industry that does not matter to get a trade deal.
The horrific reality of Brexit hasn’t changed in four years – this deal won’t alter that
When will Boris renege on this deal? We know he will, we just do not know when.
Trump Claims Twitter Censorship Leads To Communism
Trump is just like anyone else on Twitter, he wants Twitter to include any opinions he agrees with and none of the opinions he disagrees with. As to facts, who cares?

Kelly Loeffler, David Perdue 'Adamantly Oppose' Changing Atlanta Braves' Name
Ghislaine Maxwell’s husband calls her ‘wonderful and loving ’
How can she be loving and wonderful when the media have already decided that she is guilty.
I can see why they want to change the name, because 'brave' no longer means 'brave' in modern-day parlance. It is just a way to offend people who like to be offended: like Tribe.
I am surprised that the Atlanta Crackers are not offensive to Whites
I am surprised that the Atlanta Rhinos are not offensive to Republicans
I am surprised that the Atlanta Hawks are not offensive to peace-loving people
I am surprised that the Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets are not offensive to the Chinese
Certainly, the Atlanta Chiefs and the Atlanta Renegades will have to change their name.
Perhaps we could call the Atlanta Braves the Atlanta Chickens
The Atlanta Chiefs could be the Atlanta Hens and Atlanta Renegades are the Atlanta Loyalists
Perhaps it could be called "Historically-White University"
How can she be loving and wonderful when the media have already decided that she is guilty.
Once the media decide, no one is allowed to say anything that doubts their view.

Donald Trump
denies it is Monday, accuses Democrats of rigging the weekend
The weekend should have had millions more
wonderful, terrific days if they had not been stolen by the Deep State,
according to a tweet from Donald Trump today.
Promising
extensive, crowdfunded lawsuits would follow, the President said that he would
defend the integrity of the American weekend and make whoever had stolen
‘innumerable’ days regret it. Already
supporters are tweeting under the hashtag ‘Riggedweekend’ to demand the return
of the days off they are rightfully due.
Speaking from the White House, today’s
Press Secretary – who will be gone tomorrow so we didn’t bother remembering his
name – told us that the American people had legitimate concerns about their
weekend having only two days in it, and all legal avenues remained open to
retrieving the others. “We believe that
George Soros is keeping the stolen days in a huge grain silo in Frankfurt and
goes swimming in them”, he said. “The President saw something very like it in a
cartoon yesterday so it must be true.”
However, Pennsylvania weekday auditor
Simon-Bob Williams disagreed.“We counted the number of days in the weekend and
it was just the same as last time”, he told us.
“In fact, the Trump campaign has just paid me three million dollars to
do it again, so here goes.” “One, two.
Yep, same as last time.”
The post, with a doctored photograph showing an Australian soldier with a knife to the throat of an Afghan child, sent relations between the two countries to a new low.

The Rotting of the Republican Mind
By David Brooks
In a recent Monmouth University survey, 77 percent of Trump backers said Joe Biden had won the presidential election because of fraud. Many of these same people think climate change is not real. Many of these same people believe they don’t need to listen to scientific experts on how to prevent the spread of the coronavirus.We live in a country in epistemological crisis, in which much of the Republican Party has become detached from reality. Moreover, this is not just an American problem. All around the world, rising right-wing populist parties are floating on oceans of misinformation and falsehood. What is going on?
Many people point to the internet — the way it funnels people into information silos, the way it abets the spread of misinformation. I mostly reject this view. Why would the internet have corrupted Republicans so much more than Democrats, the global right more than the global left?
My analysis begins with a remarkable essay that Jonathan Rauch wrote for National Affairs in 2018 called “The Constitution of Knowledge.” Rauch pointed out that every society has an epistemic regime, a marketplace of ideas where people collectively hammer out what’s real. In democratic, non-theocratic societies, this regime is a decentralized ecosystem of academics, clergy members, teachers, journalists and others who disagree about a lot but agree on a shared system of rules for weighing evidence and building knowledge.
This ecosystem, Rauch wrote, operates as a funnel. It allows a wide volume of ideas to get floated, but only a narrow group of ideas survive collective scrutiny. “We let alt-truth talk,” Rauch said, “but we don’t let it write textbooks, receive tenure, bypass peer review, set the research agenda, dominate the front pages, give expert testimony or dictate the flow of public dollars.”
Over the past decades the information age has created a lot more people who make their living working with ideas, who are professional members of this epistemic process. The information economy has increasingly rewarded them with money and status. It has increasingly concentrated them in ever more prosperous metro areas.
While these cities have been prospering, places where fewer people have college degrees have been spiraling down: flatter incomes, decimated families, dissolved communities. In 1972, people without college degrees were nearly as happy as those with college degrees. Now those without a degree are far more unhappy about their lives.
People need a secure order to feel safe. Deprived of that, people legitimately feel cynicism and distrust, alienation and anomie. This precarity has created, in nation after nation, intense populist backlashes against the highly educated folks who have migrated to the cities and accrued significant economic, cultural and political power. Will Wilkinson of the Niskanen Center calls this the “Density Divide.” It is a bitter cultural and political cold war.
In the fervor of this enmity, millions of people have come to detest those who populate the epistemic regime, who are so distant, who appear to have it so easy, who have such different values, who can be so condescending. Millions not only distrust everything the “fake news” people say, but also the so-called rules they use to say them.
People in this precarious state are going to demand stories that will both explain their distrust back to them and also enclose them within a safe community of believers. The evangelists of distrust, from Donald Trump to Alex Jones to the followers of QAnon, rose up to give them those stories and provide that community. Paradoxically, conspiracy theories have become the most effective community bonding mechanisms of the 21st century.
For those awash in anxiety and alienation, who feel that everything is spinning out of control, conspiracy theories are extremely effective emotional tools. For those in low status groups, they provide a sense of superiority: I possess important information most people do not have. For those who feel powerless, they provide agency: I have the power to reject “experts” and expose hidden cabals. As Cass Sunstein of Harvard Law School points out, they provide liberation: If I imagine my foes are completely malevolent, then I can use any tactic I want.
Under Trump, the Republican identity is defined not by a set of policy beliefs but by a paranoid mind-set. He and his media allies simply ignore the rules of the epistemic regime and have set up a rival trolling regime. The internet is an ideal medium for untested information to get around traditional gatekeepers, but it is an accelerant of the paranoia, not its source. Distrust and precarity, caused by economic, cultural and spiritual threat, are the source.
What to do? You can’t argue people out of paranoia. If you try to point out factual errors, you only entrench false belief. The only solution is to reduce the distrust and anxiety that is the seedbed of this thinking. That can only be done first by contact, reducing the social chasm between the members of the epistemic regime and those who feel so alienated from it. And second, it can be done by policy, by making life more secure for those without a college degree.

Queen Elizabeth II claims vote by Continental Congress to remove British Monarch in America was rigged, demands it be set aside
Queen Elizabeth II has accused the United States of ‘rigging’ a vote for the Continental Congress to remove the British Monarch as head of state, according to a statement from the court of St James today.
Elizabeth says millions of Americans actually want her in charge, and has suggested that the vote was not only rigged but foreign agents interfered with it – probably the French.
“They haven’t verified the signatures”, said Sir Simon FitzWilliams, new-appointed Governor of Massachusetts. “Look at the size of this one by someone calling themselves ‘John Hancock’. It’s huge. Nobody real signs their name like that.”
“And the rest of them are all that same oldy-worldy cursive script with the same pen and ink. What are the chances of that from different people? We demand proof they weren’t all written by the same person in a blatant attempt to fix the vote.”

The shrinking of the American mind involves a kind of numbness. It has become difficult to think or see beyond the noise emanating from the White House" and the Democrat and Republican campaigns.

President called 'American Mussolini' as he removes mask on return to White House
