Dear hard-left, *white men* were the biggest anti-Trump voters.
Oh dear.
There goes your narrative.
And obviously, the tweet immediately above makes a polemical point & should have including the words “biggest *change* in anti-Trump vote”, but I often don’t feel like spelling out the obvious everytime, so that I may sit back & discover who thinks I’m stupid.
Focus on the point
The data was evident.
Not even ethnic minority *democratic primary voters* care about ideological race obsessions
“third group are Dem. primary voters who describe themselves as moderate to conservative. This group has the largest number of minorities”
“The three ideological groups favor different sets of policies. On the left, the very liberal voters stress “the environment, protecting immigrants, abortion, and race/gender”...while the moderate to conservative Democrats are “more concerned with job creation and lowering taxes”
Translation:
the poor and ethnic minorities care more about their jobs that you sold out to China, than they do about white middle class university graduates tearing down statues in their name.
One of the best ways to be right about anything... is to actually listen.
But that... requires some humility.

“Gerhard Schindler, who led the Federal Intelligence Service (BND) from 2011 to 2016, said Germany needed to curb its “strategic dependence” on Beijing and ban Huawei from its 5G mobile phone network.”
“He also warned that Angela Merkel’s liberal approach to the 2015 migrant crisis had left Germany with a “large reservoir” of young Muslim men susceptible to violence and jihadist ideology, and that the true scale of the danger was only now becoming clear.”
“Some argue that Imperial’s modelling may have come true had it not been for lockdown. But this does not explain Sweden. Academics there said its assumptions would mean 85,000 deaths if Sweden did not lock down. It did not – and deaths are just under 6,000”
It gets better
“..original system..run over by a bus would be counted as a ‘Covid death’ if..tested positive..but later recovered. When this..was pointed out..it turned out even the Health Secretary was unaware what..Covid death data referred to. He ordered an immediate inquiry”
asking “how did Giuliani get these emails” rather than: “are they genuine” points to a willingness in media to ignore evidence of (and a witness to) biden’s *alleged treason with genocidal china, over a procedural point
I learnt how to think better via traditional Arabic legal philosophers (الأصوليين)
“..a mountain of knowledge to be discovered in (Islamic) Spain shot like a lightning bolt through Europe. Translators (went for) ancient Greek..translated into Arabic. The jackpot..was Aristotle”
Ancient Arabic books on the principles of jurisprudence are some of most powerful displays of legal logic and linguistic philosophy you can find. So many of them are preserved.
Unbeknownst to many, they are replete with reverence for the commentary & thinking of Plato & Aristotle
It is worth noting the role Arab Jews also played in this ‘golden era’ for medieval Muslim thought.
Here’s to a similar, new era of reenlightenment for our times 🙏🏽🧿
The former head of Saudi intelligence Prince Bandar pillories the Palestinian leadership, holding them responsible as “they always bet on the losing side & that comes at a price”
Prince Bandar is Saudi Arabia’s former ambassador to the US and served as director general of the Saudi Intelligence Agency from 2012 to 2014 and the head of the National Security Council from 2005 to 2015
“Who are the allies of the Palestinians now?.. Iran..using the Palestinian cause as a pretext at the expense of..Palestinian people?.. Iran..who want to liberate Jerusalem through Yemen, Lebanon, & Syria? The path to Jerusalem is known.. if they truly wish to take it”
