Every accusation is a confession

No, this is not about the Israeli army acusing H4mas to use human shields while doing it themselves by having their headquarters in the middle of a densely populated urban area and by forcing P4lestinian civilians to walk in front of their shiny, US taxpayers sponsored, tanks. 

Nor is it about their wild stories about pregnant women (warning: distressing) being cut open by terrorists and they can't mention those women's names without admitting the atrocity was common practice among IOF soldiers doing that to P4lestinian women.

This piece also isn't about the right accusing the left of being grifters.

No, it's about US conservatives blaming 'the left' for the corruption of children, sexual 'weirdness' and nazi sympathies. A fine example of a Republican being and doing exactly what his kind accuse the left of, is Luitenant Governor of North Carolina, Mark Robinson. On a p0rn platform he proudly admitted to being 'a black n4zi!' and having a preference for watching 'trans porn'. He also called Martin Luther King 'a f* commie b4stard!' 

Although Republicans admire H!tler and Mark Robinson's wife literally stole girl scout cookies, Republicans still blame dragqueens, homo- and transsexuals for being bad people. 

Can you give three examples of a dragqueen stealing cookies from girl scouts or from having n4zi sympathies?

Hard work: what is that?

Albert Einstein was staring at a candle when he came up with his famous equation on mass and energy; Isaac Newton was taking a nap under an apple tree when the Theory of Gravity dawned upon him. Pulitzer price winner John McPhee gets his most brilliant ideas while lying face up on a picnic table and Archimedes was enjoying a well deserved bath when his brain suddenly went "Eureka!"

Does that make these brilliant people lazy 'because they don't work hard!'? Can you call what these people did and do 'mindfullness'? Maybe. No matter what you call them and their methods, they seem(ed) to realize that the mind needs rest to come to its full potential. 

"Yeah, but if you don't constantly work hard, you'll never be rich!" is a myth. 

Do you often 'rest your mind'? And no, mindlessly staring at something on Netflix or scrolling through Tik Tok does absolutely not give your mind its much needed rest. On the contrary. These non-actions produce hormones that overactivate your brain. Not good. 

"Yeah, but if I don't constantly work, I'm not productive!" Nonsense. A fairy tale, told by managers to their [slaves] workers at some mine or factory a thousand years ago. We need breaks on regular intervals to rejuvinate, to be able to stay active, to be able to think clearly. 

What is your favourite way of taking a short break from work?

Happy holidays!

Happy Holidays! And no, hypocrites, Christmas is not the only holiday in the world celebrated this time of year. FYI: it's a mix of Saturnalia, Pagan rituals and capitalist inventions. 

The first US christians (their much revered Pilgrim Fathers) fiercely opposed any kind of celebration.  Especially Christmas. And especially when it included drinking alcohol and dancing. So, are you a 'true Christian' or just a dumb hypocrite? 

Either way, happy holidays!

Oh, and Santa is a capitalist invention by Coca Cola:

Their marketing agency was tasked to find a way to sell more of the drink in winter by appealing to the European heritage of Americans. Thus they combined the different stories of Father Christmas, Saint Nicholas, Father Winter, Father Time and some Scandinavian- and central European folk tales and created the monstrosity known as Santa.
