Who are the Freaks - No Tech for Apartheid

 https://www.notechforapartheid.com/#newmode-embed-14660-40026

It's interesting that there are just, so many different groups (NGOs, Non-Profits, etc) nowadays.  These radically left-wing groups, as well as their entities on social media, makes you wonder: who supports them, and just where do they get their financial backing?

The above is one of them, and its very interesting to look at their website!   It's a troop of leftist freaks and supporters (see below).

    

I didn't think it was possible to be endorsed (presumably financed by) by THIS many whack jobs!?

So, this is the start of a new theme for this blog. Let's call it "Freaks of the Month" or for the week, if I find out that there is more than one group per month that merits being here. 

No Tech for Apartheid:

This particular group is very interesting, and at the same time,  also very cliched.  It is once again, a typical, highly middle class, privileged, and so precious a group of pukes, who not only run it and finance it, but also (presumably) take part in their demonstrations.

According to this ignorant group of anti-Semites:

As the Israeli Occupation Forces bombed homes,  clinics, and schools in Gaza and threatened to push Palestinian families from their homes in Jerusalem May 2021, Amazon Web Services and Google Cloud executives signed a $1.22 billion contract to provide cloud technology to the Israeli government and military. By doing business with Israeli apartheid, Amazon and Google will make it easier for the Israeli government to surveil Palestinians and force them off their land.

Surveil?  They use it a lot (see below)

NTFA gained a pathetic notoriety last week, when a group of them took over sections of Google's Sunnyvale, California offices.

https://fortune.com/2024/04/18/google-employees-israel-project-nimbus-no-tech-apartheid-firing-reaction/

This resulted in several dozen being terminated.  Bravo!

But, subsequently, thank God!, many of these "warriors", including in the link below wee Emaan Haseem (ah, bless her and her outrageously, arrogant look)

https://www.ocregister.com/2024/04/23/google-fires-28-workers-in-aftermath-of-protests-over-big-tech-deal-with-israeli-government/

were also fired today due to the above demonstrations.  It takes the toll to about 50.  50 less pieces of shit in the corporate world.  

Who knows, maybe sanity is finally returning to Big Business.  Perhaps a post-Woke world is amongst us . . . at last!

On their site, it is still possible to sign a petition to demand that Google disinvests from Israel.  And I have to report, that as of today, close to 100,000 lunatics have indeed signed up to the below (edited):

Dear Amazon and Google Executives Andy Jassy, Adam Selipsky, Sundar Pichai, and Thomas Kurian,

I’m writing to you with urgency and in solidarity with the hundreds of Amazon and Google workers bravely calling for Google and Amazon to immediately cancel your $1.2 billion contract for Project Nimbus and stop doing business with the Israeli apartheid government and military, . . .

In addition and "naturally", they are down for the struggle against BME / BIPOC oppression, with this:

Amazon helps power ICE’s deportation-detention machine, and partners with over 2,000 U.S. police departments to surveil and criminalize Black and brown communities through its doorbell camera Ring. 

As always, they somehow link Gaza / Israel to Black Lives Matter?  A combination that any sane person would think was crazy; but don't these groups always do this?

They then try to make this personal by having several students from Gaza, presumably the University of Gaza, give personal statements:

That's right, the University of Gaza, based in Gaza City; which happens to have its very own Sharia Law department!

You can't make it up.

Liz Truss - My take on her "Budget" & the Government - Media Complex - Part 1

So they were complaining from the very start; right after they buried our wonderful Queen; the scum in the MSM were after Liz Truss, our new Prime Minister in the UK, from the off.

And naturally the unwashed sheep, ignorant as hell, agreed to every single bit of it.  

Even AFTER, Sir Kier (Sir Kier Starmer, Leader of the opposition Labour Party in the UK)  and his third-rate lot, did not say a SINGLE word as to just what they would exactly do, if they were in power, as regards the economy, tax rates, budgets, etc.  

It's not so much that they did not say a single word about their future plans; it's that they were simply never asked (!), about this from the POS(s) in the MSM.

And in particular, how they would view an independent Bank of England, if, or should I say WHEN, the bank would raise & raise interest rates in the future.

But speaking about Labour. . .

The above is the Labour economic spokesperson, or in UK speak, the Shadow Chancellor.  Her name is Rachel Reeves, and lo and behold, she went to a private school in London, then did a poxy Poly-Sci degree at Oxford, and actually has the gall to represent a northern constituency in Leeds!  You can not make it up.  She's also a clown.

In the interviews, or lack of, she showed an utterly third-rate opinion in grasping basic economic principles as to interest rates, inflation, the American response to inflation, etc, etc.  OTOH, she was not really asked about any of this, and merely used the "interviews" to bash both Truss and her counterpart in the Conservative party, Kwasi Kwarteng. 

Her, along with her party, simply refuse to debate tax policy and merely let the MSM do their dirty work, but so far, I have not heard a SINGLE word as to just what a Labour government would do. 

And more specifically, just how tax cuts, especially the top rate being cut from 45% to 40% on earners of £150,000+, of £2 billion would actually wreak havoc on the UK economy?  

Not one question, and not one comment on our very low Unemployment Rate, or our standing compared to other countries, specifically the G7, who ALL happen to be having problems of their own - particularly Germany. 

Not one!

Please remember that under the last Labour government, there was a 40% tax rate as the highest band of tax (under Tony Blair), yet THIS is their (and Reeves) biggest complaint about the Tories right now!

Complete and utter hypocrisy!

Equally, the filth in the MSM went on and on about the £45 billion that would have to be found, if the highest tax rate was cut from 45% to 40% and the lower rate were to be cut from 20% to 19%, in order to not grow the deficit (as if they really give a damn about spending too much money!).

But the fact is, that now that Truss has backtracked on the higher rate, there is STILL £43 billion to be found, but the scum in the MSM never even mentions this. As the top rate being cut, was only EVER to be about a £2 billion loss in revenue to the UK government. 

Then the MSM went on and on, again, about that fact the the Bank of England was going to have to use £65 billion to prop up Pension funds, by buying Gilts (UK Government Debt), when in reality, they lied and lied about this.

It was NO WHERE near £65 billion; for as of last week, it was only 3.7 billion spent and at one time, for one day it was only £22 million!  

Again, the dirty lying MSM, have never mentioned this!  And if you were to ask a typical, ignorant, unwashed fool in the street, they probably wouldn't even know what you were talking about. 

What should be happening?  And what should have happened, will be in part 2.

Glasgow Socialist *hole, now having to sell off their Buildings - What a dump!

A few years ago, Glasgow, as in Glasgow City Council (GCC), had come to an agreement after a lawsuit, to pay £500,000,000 to about 14,000 mostly female workers!

That's one helluva lot of money!  

Fancy that, a group of hard-core socialists, had been found to be discriminating against females . . . for years!  

Yea, that's right, the Left are your friends.  

Who in their right mind still believes this?  Particularly in this day and woke age; when the head of the Labour party, Sir Kier Starmer (Ed; What a name! And his middle-name is Rodney!), can't even define a women!

But coming back to the half a billion quid, it was said at that time, that Glasgow in 2019 would either delay the decision, or in the future, would need to start to sell its limited amount of assets - predominantly, land and buildings. 

Let's face it, in reality, that's really the only things that a local government own.

Glasgow City Chambers

City Chambers - Banqueting Suite

And now, just today, has come to fruition.

Now it seems, that several simply wonderful city buildings, built and paid for by the once, hard-working citizens, will have to be sold, and then leased back.  The two above could possibly be that way.  They are both magnificent!

Yet another sign, of the sheer, and utter incompetence of leftists, be they here in Scotland, Chicago, Philadelphia, or wherever they might be infested in.

Michele Obama's new book? Already half-price; BEFORE it hits the Shops!

 

Just received an email this morning, and lo and behold, this simply horrible human being has decided to infect the world again, with her horrid woke, world-view.  In the words of Waterstones in the UK (my emphasis in bold):

In 2018, Michelle Obama’s global bestseller Becoming recounted the former First Lady’s inspirational journey from her Chicago childhood through a successful career as a US attorney and on to her years in the White House.

Now, four years later, Michelle demonstrates how readers can utilise the lessons she has learned from her eventful life to build meaningful relationships, find community within difference and navigate change with confidence and kindness. Most of all, she describes how when we ‘light up’ for others, we illuminate the world around us with understanding, insight and love.

Written with good humour, candour and grace by one of the world’s most widely respected public figures, The Light We Carry is the perfect book of comfort and reassurance for uncertain times and an ideal gift for those you hold closest in your heart.

A truly unmissable literary event, The Light We Carry is published on Tuesday 15 November and is available to pre-order now at half price.

And I can now, simply vomit!  This is simply unbelievable but OTOH, it is completely believable, considering the unwashed morons who were bamboozled by her utter contempt for them, for whitey, for tradition, etc, etc. 

I am never for burning books, but I've now discovered some half-price kindling that I can use in my chimney this winter.

Already an early contender for my Worst of the Year awards!

Wimbledon; globalised, woke, homogenised - EVERYTHING is the same nowadays

Years ago, it was always a joy to watch the Mixed Doubles final of Wimbledon that always occurred AFTER the Men's Final on the last Sunday of the championships.

But then, only a few years ago, I noticed that this had ended?  I don't know exactly what year, but it could only have been in the last five or so.

What a shame!  It was just so relaxing, and then I thought - They've conformed to EXACTLY like the other majors in tennis (at least to the best of my knowledge).

Then last year, the great Roger Federer, did a self-video tour of the last and final middle-Sunday, as this year, they decided to play on the first Sunday*.  But now that has ended, as the recent Wimbledon was the first (ever?) not to have the first Sunday free from play - just like the other tennis majors. . . again.

* Why it is called "middle-Sunday", I will NEVER know!  It is the "first" Sunday, not the middle one!?

More of the same, homogenised, "just like every other major tournament in tennis" type of feel; doesn't seem like "Wimbledon" then, does it?

Equally, back in 2001, the courts were slowed down, after all, Pete Sampras was dominating, and we can't have that, can we?  So the courts were now to be played slower, so "everyone" had a chance to win.  It just wasn't fair before, was it?  Just like the other majors. . .again!

More of the same; a standard product, ad nauseum.

Equally, this year, as well as last, the officials started to have on-court interviews after nearly every match played; with someone truly awful from the BBC.  You know, the same questions, answers, et al, to those great queries, such as:

* How did you play?

* Tell us your feelings?

* Are you looking forward to playing . . . in the next round?

Simply ridiculous and simply boring but to the inane crowds, divine!?

Equally, the Wimbledon committee and the agonisingly woke BBC, had a love-affair, with the runner-up, Ons Jabeur, from Tunisia - of course for their obvious, woke feelings.  If I could've earned a penny for every instance that I heard that she was Arab; I'd be retired now!

They, Wimbledon, then had the audacity, to put her first onto the first Monday's schedule, on Court No. 1, AHEAD of the current World Number 1, Iga Swiatek (who had won the French Open, and was the current Number 1 player in the world).

It was sickening and embarrassing.

But has anyone asked the question; why?

To me, Wimbledon has been around for some time, and it will be around for some time more.  There was no need whatsoever for this to occur, but it did.

And it's just so easy to see why, the graphic says it all. 

We want no competition, no variety, no individualism; everything on every continent, will be the same; full stop, period!

The EU - 2 things this week that should worry you!

Please go here to see the first one, what an amazing short-sighted law.

You say, hey Recht, that will stop Apple, won't it!  Yes, it will; from innovating, from spending ANY money on something new or interesting, as now, if all of its competitors don't have the same pieces of kit, they can get the good ole EU to ban it.  Right?

But let's take this to another level.  If in the future when everything has to be standardised, who actually agrees to what is the standard? 

Say for example, Apple and Microsoft, as they are the big players, basically think that Apple's Lightning charger (which is what this law is aimed at), decide that Lightning is the new standard, and that USB-C or USB-D (presumably) are inferior; who makes this decision? 

And if this decision is taken, surely we will ALL have to shell out for a new & very expensive Lightning connector -  This could and probably WILL happen.

Be careful what you wish for . . .

On another Euro thing, and one that has probably NOT been reported on (Hat Tip to the great, Mahyar Tousi from England), there will possibly be a Vote of Confidence (not another for Boris Johnson!) on the present President of the European Commission, Ursula von der Leyen, who has held this post since 2019.

Apparently, the Belgium born Kraut, has been a bad girl, and the apparatchiks in Brussels who wish for an even more European super state, want her "raus"!

It appears that, with her assistance, a huge amount of Geld was sent to Poland, despite the Poles not completely playing ball with the EC and some of its laws / rules; with one of the three signatories to the vote, being the despicable former Belgian Prime Minister, Guy Verhofstadt.(above).  

Another revolting pos lawyer, who for the last 40 years, has never really had a job, and is to the left of Chairman Mao.

This will certainly be interesting on just who votes For and Against.

Stay tuned.

Truly awful! A conversation I was forced to listen to on an Airplane - Revolting Leftists

Have you ever been forced to listen to two leftist, wackjobs, with NO plan of escape!  It happened to me yesterday on my flight to Europe for a peaceful week - they just KNEW people around them were listening, as their arrogant tone was on full display.

It went something like this:

INT - AIRPLANE PASSENGER SECTION - MORNING

After a few minutes of polite chit-chat, SHORT HAIRED KAREN  (SHK); tall, overweight, nerdy, naïve, who just SO wishes to be cool but at 50+, that wish is forlorn; talks to a MIDDLE CLASS BLACK MAN (MCBM) to her left; snobby, defo NOT from the ghetto, but SO wishes that he was, as he is reading a "woke" basketball book.

SKH

(slightly nervous & patronising)

. . . and, I don't want to bring it up, but this has happened only after . . . orange hair man came to power?

MCBM

(trying to be intelligent)

I agree.  To cause division on purpose is evil, and he encouraged this and encourages his supporters to be like this!

SKH

(angry)

Yes, the far right! I have a sister who all of a sudden, became far right!  But her children are liberal.  So there's hope.

LATER:

SKH

And EVERY minute portion of his life (Barack Obama) was looked at under the microscope by the media.  EVERY BIT

MCBM

It was sick!

SKH

And they made fun of his truly beautiful and unique wife, Michelle, as well

MCBM

They just can't accept an intelligent and stylish black woman!

LATER:

SKH

And they say you can work your way out of poverty?

MCBM
(laughing and interrupting)

Yes, you can't do that . . . it's a myth!

LATER

MCBM

But there are some of them (Republicans) who are okay, Colin Powell.

SKH

Agreed!

MCBM

And Condoleezza Rice.  I don't care for her politics but she was alright.

LATER

Ad nauseum. . . !

My God!  To think that there are actually people like this in our day and age.  Literally, EVERYTHING that they said was wrong, bigoted, hate filled, etc.

I chose to go to sleep.

The Week Ahead (I've been busy!) - Biden and his "Judge" Nominees; Simply Unbelievable!

One of the greatest things that Trump did, was his ability, along with Mitch McConnell, was to have his judges appointed in the Senate.  It was staggering the number that were, even AFTER the fascist, Dems took control.

Mainly, though I have not Googled this, they were sound and very young. 

Contrast this, to these two token, buffoons who are getting a grilling from two Republican senators (Marshburn and Kennedy).  It's literally mind-boggling just how INEPT and over their heads these two nominees are.

Watch and laugh (or cry if and when these two dolts get appointed).

Prick of the Week - John Bishop and his appearance on Saturday Kitchen - BBC1

Good God, these woke, snobby, pricks are literally everywhere!  And they even delight in spoiling a normally, nice bit of jolly TV, that simply ruins one's weekend!  Case in point; John Bishop.

Prick Bishop (far right)

Just when I thought I'd enjoy a bit of cooking, one of that lot just has to show up, and lecture the audience on the evils of meat-eating, and the joys of Veganism, repeat, not Vegetarianism.

Where do these London-based, woke elites get off from this?  And you just KNOW, he enjoyed every minute of it, whilst stating the same old lies about being vegan and just how good it is for the environment, and for your health!

No John, planting crops for your middle-class privilege is not good for the environment, particularly with the number of pesticides that have to be used therein, that are NOT used when it comes to raising cow or sheep

No John, the middle-classes, are healthier anyway than the poor old unwashed, be they vegans, veggies or meat eaters.

And finally John, your point about looking at a smelly, piece of meat on your plate and feeling disgusted is a downright lie, as many, as in MANY vegans, are doing the EXACT SAME THING, when they look down on their plate, to see a VEGAN PIECE OF MEAT, that smells EXACTLY like a real piece of meat.

Please fuck off!

Inside the leftist, "I am always right, even when I'm wrong", mind - Pfizermectin

They are truly disgusting, take a look at this filthy, lying, pos from the Labour Party in the UK.  She does this with not a hint of a brass neck, as naturally, she's a box-ticking, woke, piece of garbage, and has a completely separate set of standards that the media will judge her by - if, and I do mean if -  they even report on this. 

We all know, that if this was a Tory, it's front page news!

My point here, is not just the arrogance, and the bigotry of these type or class of people, in this vile case, she is also very much anti-Semitic (accused of), it's that they will NEVER back down, ever!

Take for instance, the newest findings on the Omicom variant, which according to everyone familiar with it, be they South African health chiefs, Theresa May or the fact that it has not killed anyone in the UK and has mutated at times with the common cold virus; that still, they want to lock us down - even though the science says the exact opposite.

Another instance, is the downright lies about Ivermectin only being a "horse paste" according to the BBC, but now, senile Joe has ordered 10 million courses (NOT doses) of the Pfizermectin drug, and although it is not the exact same drug, it is still a Protease Inhibitor and acts very similar to Ivermectin.  Though a key difference may be, that the dose level of Ivermectin is not at a high enough level, when compared to the Pfizer product - but big deal?  Right?

Point?  They will never admit to doing anything wrong or to backing down from their ridiculous statements.  Even when they are quite rightly, thrown out of office.

As Limbaugh said years ago, "they are, who they are, they will not change".

Is this how the Globlist, Wokes actually Think? Mandatory to eat Local Food!

 Please take a look at this photo, it is simply indescribably awful:

In an utterly contemptuous manner, that smacks of pure hypocrisy; it states that the hip and woke with their filthy, privileged lives, should think about all the third world and other spots where they have either been, or had food from; whilst simultaneously only eating local produce?

I know this restaurant, and have not been in it for about three years - the prices are completely ridiculous - with only the middle-class Guardianista having the ability to afford it!

In addition, it's thoroughly ignorant and hypocritical to expect us to eat "local", when it is the disgusting, leftist wokist, who simply LOVES to brag about all the "world" foods that they've eaten; "OOOOHhhhh, have you had the latest lo-karb, veg, pastry yet, at that multicultural Asian fusion popup yet?"

Equally, if you are to only eat local, say at either the Artisan café or farmer's market in your neighbourhood, you will probably be alone, as most people will never be able to afford this type of food choice - it's outrageously expensive.

These people disgust me!

Rishi's new British Budget - I can almost hear the 70s returning!

One of my major concerns with Brexit, was not that I was against it, but that it would enable the utterly incompetent and corrupt British establishment, once again to show that with international competition & an absence of their beloved colonies, the UK would enter a phase of becoming a third world nation, just like the 1970s or here. 

Christ!  It hasn't taken that long has it?  What with the petrol shortage, Emergency Room disasters and now, with a tax and spend budget, coming from a "Conservative" (Did anyone say Ted Heath?) government!

Honestly, the budget consists of more taxes for the successful middle-class, whilst at the same time, giving Minimum Wagers an increase in salary of just under 7%!

This is in my opinion a dreadful harbinger to come, as ONCE AGAIN success, hard work and ambition will be punished and the masses who for various reasons do not fit into that category, will be rewarded. 

Sunak should be ashamed.

These type of policies only end in one way, when the successful will choose to ply their trade in another land, and a classic "brain drain" later ensues, leaving more and more of the lower waged and less successful, to fight for crumbs; awful!

Week Ahead & Wackos on Crime

This week, we'll continue to look at wackos and their ideas & websites (see below), more of the political madness going about, praise American leftist commentator Bill Maher and look at more in depth economics / culture things.

But first for the new week, take a look at this (related to recent crime waves in the UK).

In  particular, please see below, for the stereotypical, pussy, do-gooder,

Guardianista comments from some tool called David Holmes:

When he states the typical shite about impoverishment, depravity, et al, ad nauseum, about why people turn to crime,  and even when this is turned back on him, stating the obvious that where this happened is NOT a "deprived" area, he STILL continues to state that this is the reason why these pieces of shit damaged this beautiful church.

I despair.  There is simply no reasoning with certain people.

Solution: For these pieces of shit who damaged this beautiful, renovated church; a public flogging, followed by a week in the stocks - where anyone, and I mean ANYONE, can hurl fruit, piss on, defecate on and beat the shit out of them.  After this, they'll crawl to the church and repair.  If they refuse, they'll be beaten with baseball bats and dropped off on some desolate Scottish island, to fend for themselves.

Wacko Websites - Insanity of the globalist elites - Is this how they actually think?

A recent perusal of various websites, has once again shown that even if you have initials after your name (I do btw, but who really cares?), you can still be a complete and utter idiot - as in a total lunatic.  The quote below sums this up completely.

Please go to this link, and pay if you must in order to finish reading the article (I did not), to see the simple insanity of how these people think:

https://www.newscientist.com/article/2280607-zero-covid-countries-have-done-best-and-its-not-too-late-to-switch/

You only have to read the first paragraph to know what they are up to; and I quote:

Countries that pursued strict pandemic suppression strategies fared better on measures of health, wealth and civil liberties than those that didn’t, according to an analysis published in The Lancet.

They are insane!  

To even comment on such insanity would give some credence to this piece of propaganda.  

How could ANYBODY actually say, in a "learned" publication, that you will have more wealth in a country when you shut down the entire Economy; that you will have more liberty, when you are forbidden from going out, travelling, living a normal life, etc; and that the health of your country is better, when people are committing suicide in droves and other patients, such as cancer patients, are not receiving their basic treatment; as has happened in the UK.

This is complete madness!

Woke Woche - God, it gets worse!

A recent trip to the world of the Internet, looking at the various shops that will soon be allowed to open in Scotland, resulted in me going to the website of my personal fave, "Primark".  

Yes I know, the leftists simply hate it, due to the fact that normal, poor, working class Volk, can finally dress and and dress well, for an incredible low amount of money - all under one roof.

But dearie me, a trip to that said website, resulted in the below!  Horrid!  I didn't know that Olive Oyl was now deemed to have model qualities.

Woke Woche - Memrise (language learning site)

The very first entry in a new series!

This will look at the various, awful PC / Wokeness, that is now at plaque level proportions!

Everything, and I mean EVERYTHING that we see in the arts, TV, radio, commercials, awards shows, etc, is now about skin colour, “orientation”, disability, or whatever!  Every effing thing is now this way!  I believe the code word is "immutable characteristics".

The articles will entail something from both local, Scottish, British and foreign information sources.  I’ll only publish once a week, but trust me, I’ll be scouring the globe for this type of shite but will primarily look at the English-speaking world.

Number one concerns www.memrise.com, a multi-language, learning portal, and their use of, almost exclusively Black faces on their web site.  Really?

3/27/21:

This is simply REDICULOUS!  Even if you look at the percentage of populations in the UK or USA, it is on average, less than 10%!  So even if a woke POS knows BASIC arithmetic, there is no way under the Sun that Blacks constitute the majority of language learners!

In fact, according to this link, only from last year, and I quote:

Research on African Americans in world language study (WLS) shows troublingly low rates of participation and advancement when compared with other minoritized counterparts and whites.

Says it all really.
