How hate speech laws contain telemetry, ANTIFA on trial and Goodbye Cypress: Links 1 for April 3rd, 2024

1. This is fascinating. Seattle closed an advanced school program because it was to white and Asian. The 3.4% of black student’s parents begged the school to find a way to include more black people in the program instead of shutting it down, and got accused of some fairly advanced dialectical language. It’s a short article. Read it all at source.

Seattle closes gifted and talented schools because they had too many white and Asian students, with consultant branding black parents who complained about move ‘tokenized’

The district began phasing out its Highly Capable Cohort schools and classrooms for advanced students in the 2021-22 school year because they found it had too many racial inequities. School bosses said black and Hispanic students were underrepresented at the schools.

According to Seattle Public School data, of the highly capable students in the 2022-23 school year, 52 percent were white, 16 percent were Asian and 3.4 percent were black. […] Then school board vice president Chandra Hampson slammed those parents [of black students] saying, ‘this is a pretty masterful job at tokenizing a really small community of color within the existing cohort.’

The merit principle is absolutely one of the central pillars of Western Civilization. It has allowed the largest number of people to peacefully coexist with a general understanding that if the best people got the highest position, and people who took jobs that no one else really wanted got well paid for them, society can work fairly well. The left knows it, and has been targeting the Merit Principle in every possible way, but usually with some fairly pretzel like linguistic subtleties. Which is a way of saying dialectics without having to use the word again, although that’s what it is. Some advice for all who are looking for a professional. Make sure you get one that graduated when the system was still based on reason and merit. Because if you get a communist one, and they hurt you, it will be your fault if you complain.

2. Report on ANTIFA members on trial for assault. It should be terrorism though. This news report seems relatively unbiased, but remember how ANTIFA did arson and other kinetic attacks including taking several parts of several cities hostage and calling them, “Autonomous Zones” during the colour revolution to get rid of Trump? It was called mostly peaceful demonstrations. It was terrorism. What ANTIFA does, is terrorism by any meaningful definition of the word. But again, that would be in a socratic universe. Self defence is now terrorism if you are defending yourself from communist revolutionaries.

Local media in San Diego reports on the two So Cal Antifa members on trial for a brutal attack on the public at Pacific Beach in 2021. Their pro bono leftist attorneys argue they were peacefully protesting despite videos showing the attacks. pic.twitter.com/gBnY0kGHzi https://t.co/ad55on4OLO

3. Katie Hopkins on the new Scottish blasphemy hate speech laws.

Katie hits a lot of important points here. But misses one of the really important ones. First of all, she certainly gets it right about this being about Islamic blasphemy laws, but misses a key component about how it will in no way stop leftists and Muslims for calling for genocide of Jews, Christians, white people etc. because they use dialectical language in all these laws. Specifically, “protected groups”. So this means members of protected groups and even members of groups not protected can feel free to attack and threaten and council violence against anyone who supports classical civilization, the merit principle, rule of law, evidence, reality in general.

Second, Katie goes to great pains to explain that a person could go to jail where the intent was nothing to do with what the laws pretend to deal with. They are therefore, ‘innocent’.

The argument must be that even people who do say things that may stir up hate for a group must be protected. Perhaps protected above all. Some years ago, a Neo-Nazi group did a very public march through a Jewish area in the USA. The police protected them. This was the right thing to do, period. Freedom is messy and offensive. But tyranny is brutal and lethal. In a leftist based system like that which has been imposed on us all, (and by the way the wording of this new Scottish law is eerily similar to Trudeau’s anti-Islamic blasphemy attempted motion M-103 from many years ago) you wiull still get the Nazi march but people who support Jewish nationalism will be banned. We are almost already there de facto. This will make it De jure. Same goes for any other dialectic aimed at Western civ and peoples. These laws are designed with telemetry built in, and like all Hegelian principles, are not meant to be applied equally.

Most people opposing this law make the same plea Katie does. That hey! We have no problem with any group but you will arrest us on the imputed motive of attack of a protected group. The fact is, being able to attack a group is foundational to civilization. We don’t have to like it, and when it crosses the line into immediacy of violence it becomes a legal matter. But any factual account of Nazis is inciting hatred of a group, at least for now till Antisemitism gets a little more mainstream. Its clearly OK to incite hate against ‘Zionists” since its a beard for a people and not the name for the people itself. But factual criticism of an ideology without attaching that ideology to any specific individual is a crime?

This defines dialectics. And governments always incite hatred against groups. Vaxxed and unvaxxed, masks and unmasked, pro or anti-Putin, Global warming deniers, trans kids or biological reality etc. etc. In fact this is nearly all CBC in Canada does, is create thesis antithesis groups and have them set at each other.

As usual, the comments are turned off for the government funded national broadcaster on the video below. Which is one way of knowing the video is a weapon against you, and not information of any kind.

4. Cypress is being negated, obliterated, replaced, diluted, actually from a recent definition of genocide as per the UN, this counts as genocide, by immigration

Over 700 illegal migrants have arrived in Cyprus within the past 3 days.

The Republic of Cyprus (Population: 1.2 million) receives the highest number of asylum seekers relative to its population anywhere in the EU.

The migrant camps in Cyprus are already over capacity.

5. What I’m waiting for, is the crisis of alien spacecraft landing and causing a deadly outbreak of some new kind of biological structure that we know nothing of but Pfizer has a whack new kind of vaxx for.

THAT will complete my bingo card

It is being reported that Joe Biden’s White House is meeting with “pandemic experts” over possible “avian influenza” outbreak.

This comes after media reports of
highly-contagious pathogen jumping from bird to cow to human.

Thank you all for checking out this site. I know it can’t be easy to read. It isn’t easy to write.

Incidentally, I now have the paid subscription thing working on my Substack. So anyone who was donating to this site (yes both of you and thanks very much!) and found that PayPal won’t accept them anymore, can do it through https://vladtepesblog.substack.com 

On the Substack itself, now and again we post older videos that we have had for some time which have an interesting new perspective looking back on them. Have a look if you like.

This seems accurate for where Scotland is these days. pic.twitter.com/XTdXbBL29v
