C'mon Rod, skip the pretentious crap and just admit you don't like books not written by white dudes.
refusing to admit any knowledge was created after 1843 to own the libs

Socialism is supposed to be liberatory and emancipatory, not authoritarian and repressive. We need to understand Marx's theory of false consciousness doesn't just describe capitalist hegemony, it can also describe authoritarians who use socialist slogans.
Tankie twitter is lit today
(spoiler: 'Good Guys v Bad Guys, that's it and that's all' is a lousy analytical framework)

Ok, I just destroyed my brain by watching an hour plus video of the incident so I'm gonna lay down some play by play commentary on the whole #CovingtonCatholic thing and Nick's statement.
I've seen two longer videos of the incident. One seemed to be the POV/filmed by one of the students. I can't find that vid on Youtube anymore. The other, taken by the cameraman with the black preacher, can be viewed here:
(I've seen multiple names for the group with the preacher and don't know what name they actually go by. No insult meant by me not saying it, it's purely my own ignorance.)

short thread on books I have read, starting with sometime late 2017...
1. The Asshole Survival Guide. @work_matters's sequel to his blockbuster bestseller, "The No Asshole Rule". A depressing read when you realize how toxic some workplaces can be.
2."Black Money and Tax Havens", by Prof @rvaidya2000 - a short, breezy window into the world of black money. Again, a somewhat depressing read when you realize how weak the intent and how inconsequential the efforts into rooting out black money have been.
#books #ReviewInATweet
3. "Aadhaar: A Biometric History of India's 12-digit Revolution", by @ShankkarAiyar
Perhaps the first comprehensive account of Aadhaar's birth & its midwives. Insightful a/c into how the world's largest & most intrusive, privacy-destroying scheme came to life.

“เอาตัวนี้ด้วยค่ะ แล้วก็คิดเงินเลยนะคะ”
พนักงานสาวยิ้มร่าแล้วรับเสื้อตัวที่3 มา เมื่อรวมกับของที่ลูกค้าสาวท่านนี้เลือกก็มีทั้งเสื้อ กางเกง และเสื้อโค้ท รวมเกือบสิบตัวแล้ว

“เสี่ยวหวัง...”
“ไม่เป็นไร เดี๋ยวฉันจ่ายเอง”
“ไม่ใช่เรื่องนั้น” เยี่ยซิวยิ้มแหยๆ แน่ละว่าเขาไม่อาจทำเท่บอกว่าจะจ่ายเงินเองได้ ก็แอดมินกะดึกกระเป๋ากลวงอย่างเขา ขืนมาเข้าร้านหรูแบบนี้ ทำงานอีกสิบชาติก็ใช้คืนไม่หมดหรอก แต่ประเด็นที่เขาต้องการจะบอกก็คือ...
“หรือว่าเหนื่อยแล้ว? งั้นจบร้านนี้ก็กลับกัน”
ขณะที่เยี่ยซิวกำลังจะอธิบาย พนักงานสาวก็นำบัตรเครดิต สลิปและถุงใส่ชุดที่หวังเจี๋ยซีเลือกไว้ทั้งหมดมาให้ หลังจากสาวสวยเซ็นชื่อตัวเองก็รับถุงมาไว้ในมือ

“กลับกันเถอะ แบ่งถุงในมือมาสิ เดี๋ยวฉันช่วยถือ”

Cú Chulainn is believed to be an incarnation of the god #Lugh, who is also his father! His mother is the mortal Deichtine, sister of Conchobar mac Nessa, the King of #Ulster who ruled from #NavanFort near #Armagh. #CúChulainn #Irishmyths #Irishlegends #FolkloreThursday
Born Sétanta, Cú Chulainn gained his name as a child, after killing Culann's fierce guard-dog in self-defence & offered to take its place until a replacement could be reared! Used a standing stone or by driving a sliotar down its throat with his hurley! #FolkloreThursday
Cathbad the druid announced one day that anyone who drew arms would have everlasting fame! So Cú Chulainn only 7 years old, asked for arms! But Cathbad grieved because he had not finished his prophecy-the warrior who took arms that day would have a short life! #FolkloreThursday

LOOKING FOR LOST HEIRS
by Pastor Bertrand L. Comparet,A.B., J.D.

Have you ever stopped to question the intense hatred there is in the world for #white #Christians?
"The written intention of our heavenly Father #Yahweh is expressed in His prayer when we pray, Thy will be done on EARTH as it is in HEAVEN.
"In keeping with this, is #Yahshua's [Jesus'] statement that #Yahweh's servants have been on earth for thousands of years.
