WOW!!
That must be some type of NEW DC record.
Because, it only took them 1 year, 4 months and 6 days to finally agree with what a majority of the US knew as far back as Jan. 14th, 2020.

The teaching of mathematics is part of the white supremacist culture and must be purged of all racist influences, says the California school board. Only the irrational numbers
What kind of racist influences? To begin with, there is no right or wrong answer in math. Any answer is equally valid. Princeton Professor Sergiu Klainerman, a refugee from Ceausescu’s Romania, likens the woke culture to a "soft" kind of Marxism that "enforces its ideology not by jailing dissenters or physically eliminating them, but by social shaming, mob punishment, guilt by association, and coerced speech."
Klainerman, a professor of mathematics, is very angry.
"The idea that focusing on getting the ’right answer’ is now considered among some self-described progressives a form of bias or racism is offensive and extraordinarily dangerous. The entire study of mathematics is based on clearly formulated definitions and statements of fact. If this were not so, bridges would collapse, planes would fall from the sky, and bank transactions would be impossible."
Yes, but that’s a small price to pay if we’re going to get rid of all racism everywhere, right? "Anyone who cannot cope with mathematics is not fully human. At best he is a tolerable subhuman who has learned to wear shoes, bathe, and not make messes in the house." Lazarus Long

Are they implying that the average negroid brain is not capable of what almost everyone else on the planet can do?

So, lets have a law that any outfit making a product that may harm its user (cars, aircraft, power tools, etc.) must disclose if its hiring practices include engineers who have been spared exposure to rayciss maff in the course of their edumacation.

Worth noting is that all this math be racis' BS in our universities is coming not out of the math and engineering departments, but from math and engineering EDUCATION departments.

Rome’s wisdom is written throughout our justice system, but we have forgotten it needs to be implemented to be effective.
We need t return to the values of the 20th century if we still have a hope of keeping our country, its values and our way of life.

It was quaint back when the weirdness was confined to localized patches - Haight-Ashbury, Berkeley, Venice Beach, Oakland, San Francisco - but now the nuttiness has spread like mold and you can't get away from it.

The law would certainly fail a court challenge based on Casey vs Planned Parenthood, etc.
Texas specifically excluded public agencies from being able to enforce the law thus eliminating them from entities having standing to sue.
The law becomes effective 1 Sept. The goal of that is, I think, to get the Supreme Court to overturn Casey.. before then. The Supreme Court has already agreed to hear the case of the Mississippi law which has a 15 week limitation so there is a possibility. However, a complete overturn of Casey.. is a long shot.

Dron, g(r)omgoru: This comes from a single state out of fifty — plus some territories and such, like Puerto Rico and Guam. Since January, more than twenty of the Republican-controlled states have been passing laws tightening up election laws, gun rights laws, education laws, laws covering government actions during an epidemic, and unemployment compensation laws, all to limit the changes the Democrats are trying to push through at the federal level.

you know how much work it's to raise a kid to be a human being.
I have an idea how hard it can be, g(r)omgoru — but the trailing daughters were easy and mostly a lot of fun to rear. What trailing daughter #1 is dealing with now only showed up later, poor thing. How did I misunderstand you and Dron?

#6 Dron can speak for himself. To me there are two aspects to abortion: individual & societal.
On individual level, it's no kindness to bring an unwonted child into the world.
On societal level: Are you people crazy? 30 million of what I call "Your homegrown Palestinians" is not enough for you? You want more BLM?

It's part of what I call a Reality vs. ideology conundrum. We know something's irrational and won't work right in the real world, yet we defend it because if we don't the greater evil comes in. Today, sets of principles borrowed from religion and hollow doctrines are the pipes and timbrels of both left and right. And the narrow minded demands of constituents and supporters become the banners. The fight is no more about doing the right thing that alleviates human suffering, safeguards quality and dignity of life, or protecting the parts of us that are vital. Ideology is everything, and policy that stems from it. The real issues are seen as resulting from policy, not individual malice and frailty; and thus somehow fixable by broad policy. Both sides think like this, everywhere, I guess. And we defend policies of our side with zeal.
Everybody knows for example, that there are a lot of people out there who can't be trusted with a firearm [some even with other basic rights like free speech] but because the right of the rational too is threatened by Dems we defend it all. Can't be helped because it is survival.
When it comes to sacrosanct things, things that are essential to our humanity though, like childhood, motherhood, the parental instinct... the consideration arises that who and how will they raise the child? What is its lot in the world and has our adamance cursed him/her with a life we cannot wish on our own? Are these even pondered by the self righteous fools when they make such demands of the State and cheer when the State gives in? A woman's rape may be incomplete in fact until you bring the entire government into it and force her to bear to term the fruit of her violation. I don't have answers, and the State cannot either. If some TV preacher says he does, he's a goddamn liar. All I believe is the battle for primacy of ideology can leave out some things.

[LiveMint] According to the Bank of England’s Chief Economist, the UK economy is ready to spring up once the restrictions are lifted completely
The British economy, similar to many other countries, has taken a direct hit due to the numerous lockdowns since last year, that helped the nation tide over the raging Covid-19 pandemic. Now, as the nation is planning to open up again, various sectors will get a chance to make up for the losses.
One of the most affected industries in UK is the pub sector, which often saw a complete halt in business during lockdowns. A British website called Company Debt has figured out the exact amount which the sector will need in order to revive from the slump. Taking a step further, it informed British citizens that they will have to step up their drinking game this summer in order to revive the pub sector. According to the site that provides financial advice, every adult in the country will have chug down 124 pints of beer this year to help the sector stand on its feet again

Let's get the government involved. There is no way they can eff up beer-drinking.

Buy me a ticket to the UK, put me up for a month and I'll double the 124 tiny pints, and I'll bring my German buddy Frank with me, he'll do 62 pints in a week, he does 9 pints a day here, no BS his doctor is amazed he is still alive. Shakes his head every time he sees him...mutters 'not possible' but Frank, the Concrete Foreman, does it nightly, and gets up for work @4:30 AM - Like its nothing.
WASHINGTON (AP) — The number of Americans seeking unemployment aid fell last week to 444,000, a new pandemic low and a sign that the job market keeps strengthening as consumers spend freely again, viral infections drop and business restrictions ease.
Thursday’s report from the Labor Department showed that applications declined 34,000 from a revised 478,000 a week earlier. The number of weekly jobless claims — a rough measure of the pace of layoffs — has declined steadily since the year began.
The data release coincides with rapid moves by nearly all the nation’s Republican governors to cut off a $300-a-week federal unemployment benefit that they and many business executives blame for discouraging the unemployed from seeking jobs. Those cutoffs of federal jobless aid will begin in June.
Twenty-two states, from Texas and Georgia to Ohio and Iowa, have acted to block the federal government’s $300 weekly payment for the unemployed, according to an Associated Press analysis. Two more states, Florida and Kansas, are considering doing so. Those 24 states all have Republican governors and state legislatures.
Unemployed Americans have been able to receive the federal benefit, which was included in President Joe Biden’s $1.9 trillion financial rescue package, on top of their state jobless aid.
the 'new jobless claims' peaked in April 2020 at about 6 million, when much of the economy shut down; since then, almost every month has seen a decline

Not true. Our governor (Kansas) is a democrat machine cog nominated because of who she slept with. She has a nice collection of cats, loves short walks, parroting authoritarian policies two weeks after the leaders, and accessorizing her sign language model.

This is genuinely good news on the employment front.
Now if we can just avoid the inflation monster...

Right. Last week we saw new jobs were created at 25% of the expected rate. What I see is an anemic economy where the employed are afraid to take risks.
[Summit] A new poll has found that 71 per cent of French people think the country has had enough immigration and that it can’t take any more.
The 2021 Fraternity Barometer, a joint effort by the polling firm Ifop and le Labo de la Fraternité, found that almost three quarters of respondents desired to see no more immigration, while a clear majority of 64 per cent said France should no longer accept refugees because of the threat of terrorism.
France has suffered numerous terror attacks carried out by jihadists who were let into the country as "refugees," including the majority of the Paris massacre terrorists.
As we previously highlighted, even so-called "moderate" Michel Barnier, who was the EU’s chief Brexit negotiator, is calling for a 3-5 year total ban on all immigration into the EU.
Perhaps reflecting the doublethink that still plagues people’s views on migration, although 74 per cent acknowledged that "diversity" creates problems and conflicts in society, 85 per cent of respondents still said it was a "good thing."
