Another Enlightenment Fraud

Again and again and again, we see that the “human rights” promoted by the self-styled “liberals” of the #Enlightenment were always fraudulent to their very core. Here we see in #England how so-called “equality” only goes one way and works systematically to the #disadvantage of #boys:

One of the biggest girls’ football leagues in the country faces being shut down by the Football Association for refusing to allow a boy to play in its matches.

The Mail on Sunday can reveal that a row has broken out between the FA and officials running a female league in Yorkshire after parents complained their son had not been allowed to join.

It is understood the FA has threatened the West Riding Girls Football League with sanctions and a possible suspension if it does not agree to let boys on the pitch, a scenario officials have branded ‘a massive threat to the girls’ game’.

Last week an emergency meeting was held by organisers of the league – which has at least 6,000 under-18 girls playing across more than 300 teams – where managers voiced their concerns that allowing boys to play would ‘open the floodgates’.

The FA’s gender policy states that any under-16 teams must allow both boys and girls to play, despite admitting that ‘physical strength, stamina or physique’ can put one sex at the disadvantage of the other. Fiona McAnena, at sex-based rights group Sex Matters, said: ‘A boy on the pitch changes everything. The law is clear that female-only sport is allowed. It’s sex discrimination for the FA to tell girls they must accept a male player.’

This is what inevitably happens when reality intrudes upon the #dogmatic #Enlightenment #principles to which the #secular champions of #social-justice have been appealing for more than 200 years. Whenever the #ideological #principle violates their #identity #priority, the principle always crumbles into dust.

We’ve seen it with #free-speech, as that has been trumped by the need for protect the ability of one group to believe they were uniquely persecuted in the 20th Century and for another group to ignore crime statistics. We’ve seen it with “democracy”, as that has been trumped by the need of #ClownWorld #governments to ignore the will of the people. And now we see it with “equality”, as three generations of unrestrained #assaults on #male-only-activities are suddenly jettisoned as soon as #female-only-activities are threatened.

We are somehow supposed to believe that #equality means telling girls they must accept a male player is #sex #discrimination, while not telling boys they must accept a female player is also sex discrimination. Which is, of course, a certain sign that #satanic #inversion is somehow involved.

The #Enlightenment is the philosophical basis for Clown World. It is an #outdated and #sophistic #philosophy that will disappear in the aftermath of Clown World’s #demise.

We invoke your name, #Kshitigarbha. We aspire to learn your way of being present where there is darkness, #suffering, #oppression, and #despair, so we can bring light, #hope, #relief, and #liberation to those places. We are determined not to forget about or abandon those in #desperate situations. We will do our best to establish contact with those who cannot find a way out of their suffering, those whose cries for help, #justice, #equality, and #humanrights are not being heard. We know that #hell can be found in many places on Earth. We will do our best not to contribute to creating more hells on Earth, and we will help transform the hells that already exist. We will practice in order to realize the qualities of #perseverance and #stability, so that, like the Earth, we can always be supportive and faithful to those in need.

[T]he #Christmas story actually is a Palestinian story, par excellence. It talks about a family in Nazareth, in the north of #Palestine, that is ordered by an imperial decree of the Romans to evacuate to Bethlehem, to go there and register. And this is exactly what our people in #Gaza has been experiencing these 75 days. It talks about Mary, the pregnant woman, on the run, exactly like 50,000 women in Gaza who are actually displaced. Jesus was born actually as a #refugee.
[…]
And you have this message that the angels declared here, “Glory to God in the highest, #peace on Earth”, which was actually a critique of the #empire, because glory belongs to the Almighty and not to the mighty. And the peace that #Jesus came to proclaim is not the peace, the Pax Romana, the peace that is based on #subjugation and #military operation, but on human #dignity, #equality and #justice. And this is actually what we call for.

Let's test the best democracies in the #world to see whether they even meet the simplest basic principles of #democracy.

Today I start with the respectable democracy of the United Kingdom.

I only check a single criteria and that is equality before the law.

The British take a lot of pride in their Magna Carta, but they don't even have a constitution. The lack of a constitution is one of the biggest problems with the British legal system, as you can easily invoke in court a law passed in 1518 by some random bastard who had a bit of power at the time. The biggest problem, however, is that you cannot be an archaic monarchy and a modern democracy at the same time.

Based on history, the royal family is above the law. Scotland Yard is not allowed to investigate any crime on the King's estate without his consent. So if a crime is committed at the royal salmon farm, the police must first ask the king if they can enter the crime scene.

This made Trump hesitate to enter the royal palace, as bad things could have happened to him there.

No equality before the law, so no democracy. Great Britain has failed the democracy check.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vlcWTHZ3pPA #economist #dannydorling points out the falling #lifeexpectancy (and rising #infantmortality )

"What happened before which I'm simply going to call Austerity, was far more devastating than the pandemic, and the pandemic was probably not quite as devastating, we have a record which is similar to other European countries, partly because so many elderly people died early before the pandemic occurred. so that's the context."

" #austerity " = #averybritishgenocide

#pandemic #uk #headstart #firsttheycame #context

falling since #2010, since the work capability assessment frauds, and the rest.

funny how we have paid with our lives, to pay for the crimes of bankers, and now we have bankers in parliament...

some other quote snippets:

"huge rise [in inequality] in the 80s, those who had most got more"
"and it plateaued"
"worst in europe and stayed there".

"imagine if we did that. imagine if we spent more on the quarter of children doing worst at school, what the result would be."

"enormous scope for how we can do things differently"

Video's blurb:

3,137 views Premiered on 4 Dec 2023 THE ROYAL SOCIETY OF MEDICINE
The UK had the highest life expectancy of the world's larger countries from 1950 to 1955. But every year from 2012 onwards, projections for life expectancy in the UK have been revised downwards by the ONS. What happened? The answer is austerity. Its impact was far deadlier than the COVID-19 pandemic.

Life expectancy at birth is a key measure of the health of any given population – and Britain's is getting worse.

Other high-income countries also experienced falls or stalls in life expectancy between 2014 and 2015. However, when trends for 18 Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development countries were examined, researchers found that all countries except the US and UK recovered with “robust gains” in 2015-16. The United States is very poor company to be in when it comes to public health.

In a talk given at the Royal Society of Medicine in London during the colloquium ”Recent advances in medicine and surgery” on Thursday 30 November 2023, Professor Danny Dorling looks at what happened – and who paid the price.

This is an audio-only recording of Professor Dorling's talk.
