...they're eating the protections for the people who live there.

As others have pointed out, Musk’s family benefited from apartheid but they are not Afrikaners.

Jumping to the assumption that any bad guys were Afrikaners falsely exonerates Anglo SA complicity and implication.

Musk’s grandfather—by all accounts the full Nazi in the family—was born in Minnesota

The #PEPFAR tracker is following the real time impact of each passing day of the funding suspensions spurred by the USAID funding freeze. Although there is a waiver to allow dispersion of ART, this is not happening because clinic workers have been laid off. People are dying.

I can’t take seriously any demand for reducing aid dependency that begins with taking away services from the poorest of the poor. To me that is not aid - those are reparations that they are entitled to because of the structural injustices they endure. Start with military aid and then we can talk.

I'm trying to save them.

You can find the deleted docs at CDCGuidelines.com - I'll be adding more over the weekend.

Propter Nos Fall 2017 Insurgency/Exhaustion

Reading about Felon47 blaming an air crash on DEI, this poem from 2017 leapt off the shelf:

Thank you. I hope your editors will address these concerns

Finally, It would have been advisable to reference sources beyond the BBC & especially progressive Kenyan media. Also the referenced BBC article explains why Kenyan farmers have reservations about the livestock vaccines including low trust of the government. Your summary doesn't highlight that.

Also it's not as if Mark Zuckerberg is a bad billionaire and Bill Gates is a good billionaire which is the conjecture the article seems to be framing. Billionaires shouldn't exist. Period.

Hi could you please have an in-depth feature on the legitimate fears Kenyans have about the cow vaccination program. The summary in this feature is rather dismissive and yet they are valid concerns that have been raised by citizens and stakeholders including the Kenya Veterinary Association.

In case they skip over it in the obituaries, Jimmy Carter was the first and so far only US president to name the oppression of Palestinians as apartheid. He even wrote a whole book about it.

Wow just googled & this is completely bonkers.

A screenshot of a search result from fgoogle.com The search is for “any countries.in Africa beginning with K” the search result is from Hacker News which reads: Did you know that there is no country in Africa that starts with the letter "k"? While there are 54 recognized countries in Africa, none of them begin with the letter "K". The closest is Kenya, which starts with a "K" sound. People also ask What country in Africa starts with K? く What are all the 53 countries in Africa? く

Every so often I go into Google search to check whether this is still the first search result when you look up “are there any countries in Africa beginning with K?” And it still is as of today.

Adding AI to search is working out great.

Sincerely

A Kenyan.

I had polio when i was 9. I was taken from my parents & placed in a Hospital for contageous diseases- the polio ward. I would see them once a week - thru the glass window at the end of my ward. I could not walk. It was terrifying. Kids died. Iron lungs were awful. Dont let RFK Jr ban the vaccine
