BlackRock CEO Disavows “ESG” Label, Which Means They’re About to Rebrand and Ramp Up Woke Investing by boston_blackie in Collusion

"Disavows" in the linked article is intentional hyperbole - and recycling repackaging hyperbole out of context like has been done in b_b's link title is misleading. None-the-less, ol' double-boomer boy is right - Fink is only ashamed of -what- the politicization around his ESG has been, NOT that he intended it to be used politically all along:

"I'm ashamed of being part of this conversation," "When I write these [investment] letters, it was never meant to be a political statement. " "… They were written to identify longterm issues to our longterm investors," "I never said I was ashamed," he said, incorrectly. "I'm not ashamed. I do believe in conscientious capitalism."

Reddit's "Director of Policy" by zyxzevn in MeanwhileOnReddit

I agree she didn't do something problematic: but its that her career history does not easily match her role at Reddit... unless it's a policy role heavy with propaganda and attitude manipulation.

Personally I'd wager her background shows Reddit believes more in lobbying and influencing government law & policy makers than effective marketing and better products as ways to protect their business.

Either way it's hard to tell.

I personally am not sure on any bad group having control per se... it's their bad ideas spreading that have consequences. Evil isn't the opposite of good, it is the lack of a due good. So you usually see individuals in horrid "groups" like Marxists tend to hate each other more than we ever hate them.

Although, on the other hand, they -do- tend to be very good at clandestine "networking"

Same, though most people I knew were of the opinion there was much dishonesty afoot.

I just looked at https://www.macrotrends.net/countries/USA/united-states/death-rate. If COVID-19 was/has caused a net increase in deaths, not just replacing other causes, you would see a marked change in the growth rate. Almost no country shows this 2020 or 2021 which disproves almost all the narratives. Tbf it does also disprove the "miLLiOns oF pEOPle aRe dIedER from the shOT" stories too.

Pope Plus XII is constantly slandered as being indifferent to Jews, or even complicit . why? Because New World Order wants to completely wipe out true Catholic Church by JohnRaymond in Rothschilds

David Kertzer was writing sympathy books for Communism in Italy way back in the 80's. I'm hardly surprised that someone bitter and disappointed over the fall of atheistic dictatorships, a system of belief murdering more people than anything else in history, has a hate quest against the Catholic Church.

Anybody not suffering from chronic bigotry knows that the Chief Rabbi of Israel himself praised, with evidence, Pope Pius XII for saving more Jews during WWII than everyone else combined.

Not the left - cultural Marxist progressives. Although the political machinery of the left is almost totally in their hands, there are still plenty of Left leaning individual citizens who find gender theory and all the other things The Woke do to children abhorrent.

It doesn't matter. Morality, truth and fallacy are not zero-sum games; this is still wrong, regardless of his mile-long list of ethical shortfalls.

I suppose in a way it is imperfect justice, with consequences from state law for powerful sociopaths in short supply.

Your assessment of homeschooling is completely arse-about-face. Homeschooling brings the teacher-to-child ratio closer to 1:1 than you would ever get in a classroom; and supplementary to that parents tend to tailor their education to the nuances of the individual child.

Yes there are weirdo ideas amongst the odd homeschoolers but moronic unteaching at schools has catastrophically bad ideas -everywhere-. The idea that learning maths by practice "doesn't work" i.e. some retard application of that retard Piaget's retardard theory: https://www.origoeducation.ca/blog/piagetian-approach-to-teaching/ is endemic.

Even a cursory perusal of comparative studies shows a magnitude of superiority in results for homeschooling: https://www.thinkimpact.com/homeschooling-statistics/. Homeschooling is closer in form to the education forms seen in the mid-to-late middle ages, tutoring by parents, tutors (obviously), apprenticing to a trade, and squiring to another house: and the middle ages had the greatest advancement in technology and understanding of natural sciences in relation to the tools available for any period of history.

Face it: European Catholic / Orthodox Christian learning systems built the foundations every facet of -your- life that you think isn't suck. You just hate homeschooling, not because it is ineffective, but because you are a twisted and broken bigot, hating on a Christianity you know is right and isn't afraid to look at you straight on and show you that you are careening headfirst into the abyss. Because clearly when you were raised, nobody else did.

Rand Paul: Fauci Caused 7 Million People To Die; “We’ve Caught Him Red Handed, He Won’t Get Away” by Questionable in news

Oh no, totally: Rand (and others like him) main thrust is that Fauci's actions were careless and negligent, whether or not they were directly responsible.

It's hard to unpack and separate a politicians nuances of what they are really trying to say from the "News Show" Infotainmentization of everything by almost all media - but also their own rhetoric. Just how much should someone like Rand allow his messages to be repackaged so he can get them across to the public?

He is or has been the largest advocate and instigator of a (one) medical philosophy of "the ends justify the means" in the U.S.A and beyond. He believes that old methodologies and ethics of hypothesis falsification and "first do no harm" respectively are holding back advances in treatment and prevention that could see improvements in outcomes orders of magnitude greater than what is available today.

It is a form of critical theory progressivism that runs afoul of accepted medical (and many private citizens, besides) ethics which itself rejects utilitarianism outright. An important note, however, is that many (perhaps the majority of under 40's), would agree with Fauci's ideas if asked cursorily.

Fauci is under the magnifying glass by such as Rand Paul because Fauci's -ideas- make it likely that his actions are wrong and/or evil and anecdotal evidence of his -actions- give weight to that concern.

People coming together, working together, well, okay not forming unions maybe, but yes worker rights are fairly satisfied by small-to-medium enterprises. Labor has far more say and self-assertion in mom-and-dad businesses; our current problem is large organizations both private and government. Corporations suffer from lower productivity and ultimately hurt the free market.
