Just Stop Oil activists block Pride parade in London

Seven people have been arrested while trying to block London Pride parade.

Climate activists sat down in front of an LGBT+ decorated Coco-Cola vehicle chanting "just stop oil."

LGBT+ members of Just Stop Oil called on London Pride organizers to condemn new oil, gas and coal licenses before the parade started.

Let them fight! 🍿

A record number of 40-year-olds have never been married

According to a new analysis by the Pew Research Center, a record number of 40-year-old Americans who have never been married reached a record high in 2021.

A quarter of 40-year-olds in the U.S. have never been married. Most of them lived alone, with just 22 percent living with a romantic partner. In 1980 only 6 percent of 40-year-olds had never been married.

We are witnessing the destruction of a nuclear family.

🇬🇧 Bank of England says people of any gender identity can be pregnant

The Bank of England has said that people of any gender identity can be treated as pregnant as it pledged to dedicate a floor of its office to offering gender-neutral lavatories.

In 2021, the central bank introduced a new "family leave" policy that included the gender-neutral term "birthing parent."

Shouldn't the Bank care more about interest rates? While they are going woke, someone is going broke.

Ben & Jerry’s claims 'US exists on stolen Indigenous land'

Ben & Jerry’s has called on the US to return “stolen Indigenous land” in their Fourth of July message.

On Independence Day, the ice cream company tweeted: "The United States was founded on stolen indigenous land. This Fourth of July, let’s commit to returning it."

On their website, the company wrote that July 4 festivities and celebrations can "distract from an essential truth about this nation’s birth."

They want to go down with Bud Light so badly!

However, this is not the company's first attempt at being progressive. Back in 2020, Ben & Jerry’s already showed its true colors by launching a podcast encouraging listeners to "dismantle systemic racism" and white supremacy. Even ice cream is political these days. 😰

Resumes including ‘they/them’ pronouns are more likely to be overlooked, new report finds

A business resource platform conducted research by sending two identical phantom resumes to 180 job postings that were open to entry-level candidates in an effort to test whether having gender-neutral pronouns impacted how employers perceive resumes.”

The phantom resume including pronouns received 8% less interest than the one without and fewer interview and phone screening invitations.

The same platform found that over 80% of nonbinary people believe that identifying as nonbinary would hurt their job search.

Well, first of all, I would expect that a "non-binary" resume would get 100% less interest than a resume without pronouns, because who would voluntarily make their company put up with non-binary crap and fear lawsuits every single day? The second interesting point is the victim mentality. Most non-binary job seekers are afraid of being overlooked, but that's a problem they created themselves.

If you want to draw attention to yourself by falling prey to gender ideology, don't be upset that not everyone will want to play your game.

Twitter issues cease & desist letter to Meta over new social media platform Threads

Elon Musk is threatening to sue Meta over "systematic, willful, and unlawful misappropriation" of Twitter's trade secrets and IP, as well as scraping of Twitter's data, in regards to Meta's new text-based app Threads, which resembles Twitter.

Twitter accused Meta of hiring dozens of former Twitter employees who still have access to the social media platform’s trade secrets.

"Competition is fine, cheating is not," Musk said.

Meta seems to have felt that with Musk's purchase of Twitter, the liberal world lost its hold over the platform. Conservative voices have become clearer and freer, and some members of the radical 'left' have left the platform altogether.

And so Meta decided to simply copy Twitter to give the left a platform again that can be controlled according to progressive policies.
