Gender and Medicine: Two Questions for Arkansas Legislators

As I write this column, Arkansas House Bill 1570 (the “Save Adolescents From Experimentation Act”) awaits the signature or veto of Governor Asa Hutchinson, having passed in the state House on March 10 and in the Senate on March 29.

Israel election: The Far-right is Triumphant: The Only Obstacle Left is Netanyahu

As 13 parties struggle with Israel’s complex post-election maths, seeking alliances that can assure them power, the most significant outcome of the vote is easily missed. The religious fundamentalists and settler parties – Israel’s far right – won an unprecedented and clear-cut victory last week. Even on the most cautious assessment, these parties together hold 72 […] The post Israel election: The Far-right is Triumphant: The Only Obstacle Left is Netanyahu first appeared on Dissident Voice. - Dissident Voice

Catalyst in detail: Mon, 29 Mar 2021 13:10:00

Futurism forces us to check the secret currents of history. Technological revolutions are like political revolutions, often generating de facto freedoms that states were not formerly compelled to accept. On that topic, the Catalyst Thesis of 2013 states, “We are currently able to witness transnational political actions, e.g. global protests and formation of transnational political will, to an extent that would be impossible before the internet. This is a trend that does not carry good news for the traditional Nineteenth Century nation-states we are living in. It undermines the capacity for any nation-state to live in isolation from world opinion, and to base decisions on some kind of national consensus independent of the political will of humanity. Such a possibility would likely not have been as notable in the past, because the expansion of the world-system seen today has been due to the increases in networking from better transport and communication technology. Because of this, the consequence of the internet is that the communication option, i.e. the ‘political’ option, of the global system becomes clearer to everyone.” THE TRUTHS OF MODERNITY MUST BE ACTED UPON - TECHNO-LIBERATION IS NECESSARY. http://www.clubof.info/p/catalyst.html

Cancelling Art, Dark Mofo and the Offended Classes

Last week, Australians found themselves delighting in another fit of cancel culture, this time in the art world. Tasmania’s Dark Mofo art festival prides itself on being gritty but the mood was very much about removing any grit to begin with. Interest centred on the project of Spanish artist Santiago Sierra, who had proposed soaking […] The post Cancelling Art, Dark Mofo and the Offended Classes first appeared on Dissident Voice. - Dissident Voice

A petition launched by American libertarian writer Thomas Knapp calls on the Biden administration to restore (ironically) an Obama-era petition website cancelled by Biden.

Launched at Change.org, the petition argues:

"We The People," while imperfect, served a valuable function. While it could not compel action on an issue, It put the executive branch on the spot, requiring it to explain itself when Americans demanded such action.
We call upon President Joe Biden to restore the "We The People" site, and, in keeping with his inaugural comments lauding "the will of the people," to commit to responding in a timely manner to petitions which gather 100,000 or more signatures.

One signatory had written, "I believe one of the most important things that President Obama did was to actively seek the involvement of his fellow citizens in creating policies and providing the political pressure needed to pass controversial legislation. And the White House's "We The People" web page was probably the best example of that. So I was shocked to discover today that the Biden Administration had pulled the plug on it."

The arrival of signatures has slowed since last month. If you support the restoration of the White House's former petition site, you can take part in the signing at https://www.change.org/p/joseph-r-biden-restore-the-white-house-s-we-the-people-petition-site

Selective moral, humanitarian outrage for US strategic ends continues

Mont Order group: International media coverage is often designed to manipulate, for the strategic gain of a particular country. Whenever our focus is directed, by another party, onto a very specific country's alleged human rights abuses, our suspicion is in order. It is especially in order if that other party is part of the mainstream US-based media. Presently, we see incitement against the regime in the case of Belarus, China, and Myanmar, and we know all attention used to be on Syria (that campaign of manipulation ended in failure). While there are genuine human rights abuses and movements to counter them around the world, many such movements are in the thrall of US strategy or would accept such a pathetic role in order to be funded. If someone is criticising a regime, it is most likely to be credible criticism if it is a US-backed regime neglected by media coverage. For that reason, the least misguided assessment of international affairs demands a clear picture of the geography of pro-Western subservience and US-led liberal hegemony. If a country targeted for whatever official "humanitarian" reasons is presently escaping the coercion of the hegemonic power, that may be the only true reason it is being targeted. - LOrdreNet

On this day our choice of politically-relevant title is Dirk Bruere’s “The Praxis” (https://t.co/Z3RkxkmKMJ). PRAXIS is an independently researched alert non-fiction work, so if we’re going to give it the recognition it needs, we’re incuding it at the top of our list of recommended non-fiction for today. Here we found benevolent ideas that are absolutely radical in their depth. Before you leave our site, you ought to have a quick look at how buyers took it. We took note of the words from one reader, “The Praxis is a brilliant gem. In just 112 pages Bruere does not only inform you about everything you need to know about the technological singularity and transhumanism Kurzweil failed to tell you. It’s much more than that: The praxis is scripture. Bruere eloquently provides us with definitions about spirits, soul, death, resurrection and transmigration, all fitting within the framework of present-day understanding of technology and science from artificial intelligence to quantum mechanics. The Praxis transcended my expectations by presenting transhumanism from a particular humanitarian perspective. A hope giving sound on morality and ethics without the usual tyrannical top-down ordaining known from traditional religions.” So now we’re finished, you might as well go the whole way and get a copy of the book yourself.

Here we reveal ideas that are absolutely eye-opening in their understanding of the world. Before you leave our site, you’ve got to begin by reading how buyers took it. In the words of one buyer, “The Sins of Empire is an amazing book to read. As someone who doesn’t consider himself "patriotic,” reading this helped cement a great deal of the things I had already believe to be true. (By “patriotic” I mean that i don’t blindly worship the US and refuse to align myself with any political party.) You will hear that the United States is “the greatest country on Earth” and is “the land of the free and home of the brave.” but what is brave about sending our soldiers into foreign countries to seize control of things we can monetize and monopolize in the name of freedom? What is brave about creating terrorist cells in other countries as a smoke and mirror technique to remove attention away from the freedoms we are losing on a daily basis. This is not something that can be collectively blamed on one President. This is a multiparty effort to spread the American Empire across the world.“ Well, now we’re done you might as well go the whole way and get your own copy.
