By Don Quijones: For the last few months rumours have been circulating in Spain that
once the European elections were done and dusted, the Troika would be
back with a vengeance to tighten the vice (Joe Pesci style) on the
country’s flagging economy. Lo and behold, on Tuesday, with the dust
still settling from the elections, the IMF dispatched its
suited-and-booted troops of highly trained economists to Madrid to
impose a new round of structural conditions.
“The people must pay” if they want to maintain the current levels of
public services, warned James Daniel, the man in charge of the IMF’s
mission in Spain, who, as an employee of the IMF, pays no income taxes
to any country.
In total, more than 38 billion euros must be pruned from government
spending in the next two years if the country is to meet its budget
deficit target of 2.8 percent by 2016.
To achieve that, the IMF is calling for a drastic hike in highly
regressive taxes such as VAT and “environmental taxes,” including on
essential goods such as food and fuel. It is a perfect example of the
IMF’s long-honed hypocrisy: just a few months ago the Fund publicly
chastised the Rajoy government for applying austerity measures that fell
disproportionately on the poorest and most vulnerable in society; now
it is calling for more of the same.
To Emma Howland-Bolton: My name is Jonathan Taylor. I am the founder and publisher of A Voice for Male Students, the leading Men’s Human Rights website for men and boys in education. I note – as is widely available on public record – that you are a teacher in Detroit. From one teacher to another, greetings.
I am writing to call upon you to take an opportunity to enhance the credibility of your protest. In summary, you have been heavily invested in organizing a protest that has included threats of violence and death against organizers, attendees and hosts of the upcoming conference at the Double Tree hotel in Detroit. Indeed, these threats of violence and death have become so pervasive and severe that the hotel is now requiring an entire squadron of police to station themselves at the premises for 24 hour-a-day security for three days straight so that people cannot be killed for simply listening to academics and advocates speak at a conference.

By Stephen Jarosek (aka Codebuster): The
recent spate of feminists shrieking “misogyny!” following the Elliot
Rodger rampage needs to be placed in the right context; i.e., is said
misogyny of one deranged man a cause or a symptom? More specifically, is
it a primary cause or a secondary cause? This is a question medicos ask
all the time, for example, with respect to HIV (as primary cause)
versus opportunistic infections such as pneumonia (secondary cause). The
question of primary versus secondary is also relevant to cancer when
trying to establish the source of the secondary lethal tumours that
metastasize at locations removed from the source.
So is misogyny the source of Rodger’s rampage? Or was his misogyny an
expression of a wider, systemic hatred as it manifests in modern
society in 2014? Consider the misandry that provides the foundations
upon which feminism is built. Misandry is the driving force behind
feminism, the purpose of which is to shame men and their
achievements – a sentiment extended into schools where boys are taught
that they should be ashamed of their manhood and their heroes. We now
have a feminist industry, and a revised education system that regards
competition (boys) as something nasty that is to be discouraged, versus
collaborative, facilitative conformity (girls) as the greater good that
is to be encouraged. Instead of celebrating the achievements of great
men, feminists prefer to notice only the worst among men and shame boys
and men for that. That’s misandry at work.

By John Ward: Because so much of the English summer weather so far has been a
washout, in order to save taxpayers any further pain, in future there
will be no washouts, only washins. Hard-pressed, hard-working families
will be able to bale out their own cellars without being bothered by any
interfering government agencies – busybodies who simply cost taxpayers
more money during washouts. Washins will by contrast be tax-free, and
payable only by wicked property investors masquerading as “homeowners”
ha-ha tell us another one do.
However, free blow-up dolls of Nigel Farage that bob jauntily in the
water will be available to cheer up those faced only by a lake outside,
courtesy of Brussels….and, um, UKip, the Conservative Party, the Liberal
Democrats, and the Labour Party – almost all of whom either didn’t to
turn up to vote, or voted in favour of flooding Somerset Levels, in the
European Assembly.

In the House of Commons this afternoon, Chancellor George Osborne
confirmed that henceforth, paedophile prostitution will be included in
the calculation of the UK’s gdp. All those citizens presenting receipts
for the purchase of paedophile sex will in turn be due generous tax
relief.
“I’m sure you will join me,” said Mr Nobsore, “in giving a vote of
thanks to London Mayor Boris Johnson for his steadfast defence of
paedophile brothels in the face of media nosey-parkers with no concept
of how important it is to show that Britain is open for business”.
AlyssMajere: "Feminists are the true rapists here! They rape you mentally with their ideology, they rape your children with indoctrination and they rape men legally and socially at every opportunity. Feminists, please, stop being rapists! It is not the responsibility of the male gender to cater to the whims of crazy women. ...Handle your shit bitches! ...Menstruation, appearance, mortality, etc.. Women initiate violence most of the time and men are most likely to be killed. But broken women need a bogeyman to blame!"
RT: Only around a quarter of the recent NBC News interview with former intelligence contractor Edward Snowden made it to broadcast, but unaired excerpts now online show that the network neglected to air critical statements about the 9/11 terrorist attacks.
When the four-hour sit-down between journalist Brian Williams and Snowden made it to air on Wednesday night, NBC condensed roughly four hours of conversation into a 60-minute time slot. During an analysis of the full interview afterwards, however, the network showed portions of the interview that didn’t make it into the primetime broadcast, including remarks from the former National Security Agency contractor in which he questioned the American intelligence community’s inability to stop the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks.
In response to a question from Williams concerning a “non-traditional enemy,” Al-Qaeda, and how to prevent further attacks from that organization and others, Snowden suggested that United States had the proper intelligence ahead of 9/11 but failed to act.
“You know, and this is a key question that the 9/11 Commission considered. And what they found, in the post-mortem, when they looked at all of the classified intelligence from all of the different intelligence agencies, they found that we had all of the information we needed as an intelligence community, as a classified sector, as the national defense of the United States to detect this plot,” Snowden said. “We actually had records of the phone calls from the United States and out. The CIA knew who these guys were.
By Christopher Cantwell: In the last few days, ever since Elliot Rodger’s killing spree in California, lame-stream media has been absolutely buzzing with hysterical propaganda against guns, men, and white people. Should you happen to be a white male gun owner, you might well be Satan himself according to some of these people. I’m torn between laughing at it, and hiding under my bed. On the one hand, the information is just so blatantly false that one is tempted to simply ridicule the people spewing it, on the other, it is a very real threat to my safety.
So far I’ve focused on the gun control aspect of it, because that’s generally the go to after any shooting. It was a pretty good bet, because predictably this was pinned to the NRA by many. It matters not to them, that half the killings were carried out with a knife, several injuries were caused by a vehicle, and the shooting took place in California where guns are all but outlawed. When have facts ever been a part of the gun grabber’s argument?
The more disturbing trend is one I’ve also been combating on my blog for some time. Radical feminists and “anti-racists” who demonize men and white people. Many libertarians thought I was crazy for battling back and forth with the likes of Antonio Buehler and Cathy Reisenwitz, but I sincerely hope the recent frenzy shows you why I’ve taken these problems so seriously.
