Big Virtue, Amazon, Accused of Interfering with Union Vote……Again

Ivo Fysic August 30, 2021

One of the new mega virtuous corporations of the 21st Century, Amazon, is finding its public image as champion of social justice not aligned with how it actually treats its employees, allegedly.

Already, one attempt to form a union was stymied in Atlanta, only to have a court order a new vote because of Amazon’s interference in the election process. Now, the same thing appears to be happening again, this time in their NY branch.

Consistently, wokism is a cover and shield for real abuses, not least of which the overt authoritarianism which underlies the entire wokatariate. Companies fly the rainbow flag and root out anyone who isn’t down with the alt-gendered utopian misery they inflict upon all, this while being no better than modern robber baron cartels and sweatshops.

Amazon union organizer in NY says opposition tactics similar to those in Alabama

Excerpt:

The organizer behind unionization efforts at an Amazon warehouse in Staten Island says the e-commerce giant is using similar tactics to ones used at an Alabama facility earlier this year.

Chris Smalls, a former Amazon employee who launched an independent campaign at the JFK8 fulfillment center, told Hill.TV that the methods being used in New York mimic those from Bessemer, Ala.

“We’re seeing the same thing we’ve seen in Bessemer, Alabama. The company’s putting up signs in restrooms. They sent out text messages to the workers,” Smalls said. “They actually have security now escorting or trying to escort us off the property, and these are current workers they’re doing this to.”

“Amazon has always had issues with communication,” Smalls said. “Workers have to refer to a phone app for direction most of the time. They send messages on these apps thinking that workers are in tune of what they have to do on their first day or first week, and that’s not really the…

Now Taliban Will Let Afghanis Leave, US, Uk Claim

Western Powers Justify Stranding People In Afghanistan With Empty Taliban Promises

Paul Collier August 30, 2021

After declaring they would not let any more Afghanis leave Afghanistan, after threatening America for encouraging Afghanis to leave, the Taliban have reversed course and announced they WILL let the Afghanis leave that want to leave. This announcement came in the form of a joint statement by multiple nations, including the United States and the UK. The veracity thereof, in terms of its fulfillment, remains uncertain and, frankly, is a weak hook upon which to hang your hat.

Basically, those invoking this guarantee to justify the cut-and-run strategy that has stranded thousands are likely whistling past the graveyard of their own political fortunes. The likelihood the Taliban will genuinely fulfill this is just not great and the politicos invoking this empty promise know that full well.

Biden Admin Now Claims Americans in Afghanistan Will Be Evacuated

Mark Clouse August 30, 2021

If the Biden Adminstration is being transparent, then Americans still stranded in Afghanistan might be relieved to hear the adminstration is claiming they now have the resources to remove all the remaining Americans.

While it is hoped by some, including especially those abandoned by the US, that maybe this is true, it hasn’t the ring of truth. The US has no leverage over the crazed terrorist Mullahs and no way to protect anything or anyone in country on the ground.

President Biden kept his promise to the terrorists, whom his policies armed, but he broke his promise to Americans and our Afghan partners when he said the US wouldn’t physically leave until they were all evacuated. Now the goal post moves and the situation becomes more dire.

U.S. has capacity to evacuate remaining Americans from Afghanistan, officials say

Excerpt:

WASHINGTON — The United States has the capacity to evacuate the approximately 300 U.S. citizens remaining in Afghanistan who want to leave before President Joe Biden’s Tuesday deadline, senior Biden administration officials said Sunday, as another U.S. drone strike against suspected Islamic State militants underscored the grave threat in the war’s final days.

“This is the most dangerous time in an already extraordinarily dangerous mission these last couple of days,” America’s top diplomat, Secretary of State Antony Blinken, said not long before confirmation of that airstrike in Kabul, the capital.

The evacuation flow of Americans kept pace even as a new State Department security alert, issued hours before the military action, instructed people to leave the airport area immediately “due to a specific, credible threat.”

Biden’s national security adviser, Jake Sullivan said that for those U.S. citizens seeking immediately to…

Antibody Might Fight Pan-Covid Viruses

Parker Davis August 30, 2021

Scientists are looking at some human antiobodies that seem to be effective against a range of Covid viruses. The scientists believe they may be able to create a pan-coronavirus antibody if they continue with their research. the team comes from the University of Washington.

This is promising and might put an end to the constantly changing advice and goals as all throughout the pandemic promises have been broken. What began as “14 days to flatten the curve” has become “every six montha new shot” and endless “variants” that force the vaccinated and unvaccinated to go back to economically devastating and mental health harming lockdowns. The situation in Australia has become a rabid police state that threatens to forever alter the political landscape in ways that look more like China than Australia!

This research could spell the end of the whole thing, therefore it will be fraught with obstacles and propaganda aimed at preventing it from getting unto the marketplace. The coronareich regimen has been too “good” at transferring power from the people to a sadistic ruling class to simply let it go.

Scientists identify antibodies to develop pan-coronavirus vaccine

Excerpt:

NEW YORK: Scientists have discovered human antibodies that can neutralise several different coronaviruses and pave the way for a pan-coronavirus vaccine.
These antibodies have been detected in some people who have recovered from Covid-19, said the team at University of Washington.
The study, appearing in the journal Science, describes research on five such human monoclonal antibodies that can cross-react with a number of beta-coronaviruses.
The team examined certain memory B cells from Covid-19 convalescent donors. Memory B cells are white blood cells that recognise and respond to pathogens that have tried to attack the body during a previous encounter.
Out of five promising antibodies that they isolated, the scientists decided to concentrate on one designated S2P6. Molecular structure analysis and functional studies showed that this human monoclonal antibody had impressive breadth: it was able to neutralize three different subgenera of beta-coronaviruses. The scientists observed…

China Ready to Reconfigure Entertainment Industry to New CCP Plan

Parker Davis August 30, 2021

It looks like China is about to take a hard look at its own entertainment industry, It might even be about to give it the treatment that was just given to its big tech corporations, all of which have been recently brought to heel under direct orders by Chairman Xi himself, who was beginning to rightfully feel threatened by the kind of power that was being created in these massive corporations.

It goes without saying China would target the entertainment industry next, to make sure that none of the messages being shared in this venue is out of step with the new CCP plan as reflected in Xi Xinping Thoughts, now being read by school children throughout China everywhere, learning it like its the gospel of Chairman Xi himself, the benevolent priest-king harmonizing heaven and earth for the purpose of developing socialism with Chinese characterists.

China’s anti-corruption watchdog has hit out at the country’s entertainment industry as Beijing tightens its grip on online celebrity culture and widens the scope of a crackdown on wealth and big business.

A statement posted on the website of China’s Central Commission for Discipline Inspection this weekend cited a wave of “negative news” and singled out several celebrities, including former Prada ambassador Zheng Shuang, who is accused of tax evasion, and Canadian-Chinese star Kris Wu, who was recently arrested on suspicion of rape.

The watchdog’s comments came after China’s internet regulator on Friday set out a list of 10 measures to address issues in the sector, adding that it would “resolve the problem of chaos” in online fan culture that it said was having a negative impact on young people. The measures include banning…

BERLIN (AP) — The three candidates to succeed Chancellor Angela Merkel in Germany’s election meet Sunday evening in a televised debate, with polls showing their parties close together and suggesting that many voters are unimpressed with the choices.

Sunday’s debate on RTL and n-tv private television is the first of three ahead of the parliamentary election on Sept. 26. The contenders are Armin Laschet for Merkel’s center-right Union bloc, Olaf Scholz for the center-left Social Democrats and Annalena Baerbock for the environmentalist Greens.

Laschet is the governor of Germany’s most populous state, North Rhine-Westphalia. Scholz is the vice chancellor and finance minister in Merkel’s outgoing coalition government. Baerbock, who lacks government experience, is making the Greens’ first run for the chancellery.

Recent polls show no party forecast to receive more than a quarter of the vote, a particularly disappointing situation for the Union after Merkel’s 16 years in government. The…

TikTok Accused of Allowing Racist, Phobic Content by Social Non-Profits

Ivo Fysic August 30, 2021

China’s favorit American data harvester, TikTok, has largely slid under the radar these past few years as its risen to be one of the major social media players in America alone.

Well, with success comes big targets, and , it would seem, the honeymoon is over for TikTok. Now, the Cancel Culture world is coming for TikTok. Soon, there will be articles talking about TikTok funnels leading to people literally becoming the evil of whatever the worst evils you could ever imagine a people to be.

This should be very amusing to watch, the uneasy dance of the frenemies, DNC America and CCP China, jabbing here and helping there. How TikTok is given protection or not given protection in the DNC controlled media will be another bellweather to determine where the DNC understands its power relevant to the CCP really is.

While social media has provided a lot of benefits to people’s lives, it has also given some truly unsavory characters a platform that they would not have otherwise been able to take advantage of. A good example of this can be seen on TikTok which ended up becoming a bit of a haven for various people that wanted to spew racist rhetoric and created content that propagated more of the same.TikTok pledged to make it so that hate speech and other related forms of content would not be given the same kind of platform that they have had previously, but with all of that having been said and now out of the way it is important to note that things are not really going all that successfully on that particular front. A study by Institute for Strategic Dialogue looked at over a thousand TikTok videos, and the researchers noted that a third of them contained content that promoted white supremacy or some other kind of racist and hate filled ideology that the world would most definitely be…
