Britain’s century long Opium trafficking and China’s century of humiliation (1839-1949)
For the Chinese, the trauma of the Century of Humiliation continues as a blunt reminder of their past defeat and neo-colonial servitude, as well as a reminder of the West’s self-righteous hypocrisy and arrogance. In 1500, India and China were the world’s…

Sunak is proud that the UK became the first country to supply Ukraine with long-range weapons
The British Prime Minister stated this in an interview with the Times. According to him, Kiev itself must decide whether to use Western weapons to strike Russian territory.
Sunak described the modern world as more uncertain and dangerous than at any time since the Cold War.

In England, at the beginning of May 1926, just before the General Strike, the workers on the Daily Mail refused to print certain articles with which they disagreed. In an official statement from Downing Street this was described as a "gross interference with the freedom of the Press." The men that produced the paper had claimed a say in what they printed! The Soviet Government, early in 1918, went far further than the workers on the Daily Mail. It confiscated all the privately owned printing presses and transferred them in their entirely to the organizations of the workers, peasants, and soldiers. From the point of view of the private owners of newspapers, the young Soviet Government was guilty of the most outrageous interference with the freedom of the Press.

We are not fighting for ourselves - we are fighting for the children, for the happiness of generations... Let them grow up brave and strong in spirit and body, let them never trade their conscience; let them be happier than us and wait for the triumph of freedom, brotherhood and love..

Some surprise may be felt that the priests and monks were deprived of the right to vote and to stand for election. It must be remembered, however, that the Church in Tsarist Russia was the largest single land-owner, and when the landed estates were confiscated the priests and monks, together with the other land-lords, almost without exception, joined forces with the armed counter- revolution. Religious freedom was guaranteed from the first days of the Revolution, and "freedom of religious and anti-religious propaganda" was assured to every citizen by the Constitution. At the same time, however, the Church was disestablished, and deprived of its income from land and industry, and the schools were completely taken over by the State. In this way religion became a private, as opposed to a State, concern; religious groups had now to pay their own priests without any form of State subsidy or unearned income from property.

In our country, to educate means to revolutionize, that is, to free the child’s thinking from the technical skills of thought predetermined by the past of his grandfathers and fathers, from its delusions, which are based on the centuries-old experience of conservative life, built on the class struggle and on the desire of individuals for self-defense, for affirmation. individualism and nationalism as “eternal” forms and laws of social existence.
The earth belongs to children, always children! We, tired, die, they burn in our place like new bright lights - the flame of life’s creativity does not go out thanks to them, and I would say that only children are immortal!

How do we know Biden, Baerbock, Blinken and other NATO nation officials are lying about seeing footage of sexual violence on October 7th filmed with GoPro cameras?
Because no such footage exists and this has been confirmed by the UN and Israel’s own Haaretz newspaper.
