Most of the World’s Problems are Caused by a Lack of Racism - [PEACE]
by Zenaan Harkness 10 Aug '19

You want peace? You want social cohesion? You want a stable, peaceful (at least internally), socially cohesive community? Then you need racism, and plenty of it. Literally, most of the world's problems are caused by a lack of racism, literally. Yo. Like literally. Miscegenation is the root cause (actually, it's (((TPTB))) pushing miscegenation on us all that's the root of the root cause) of many of our modern societal ills: - many "hate crimes" - if "others" are not around, there's no one to get offended - cloistering of racial or religious types into common physical localities, resulting in factioning, fractioning, dis-functioning of society, "no go zones" for those not in that group, etc - AXEshually, Christian neighbourhoods tend not to be no go zones for others, but certain other neighbourhoods certainly do turn into no go zones for Christians, gays, scantily clad women, children, etc Please, think of the children already! Criminal conviction? Send 'em home immediately. Most of the World’s Problems are Caused by a Lack of Racism http://dstormer6em3i4km.onion/most-of-the-worlds-problems-are-caused-by-a-l… Most of the world’s problems are caused by a lack of racism. This is a terrible truth so at odds with conventional wisdom that to utter it is the equivalent of telling a medieval Christian that Satan was actually the good guy. Nonetheless, it is true. Scientific experiments have shown https://www.cell.com/current-biology/pdf/S0960-9822(10)00430-6.pdf that empathy is strongly conditioned by racial affinity. We know which part of the brain governs empathy responses. You can hook people up to equipment to monitor electrical activity in that part of the brain. Then you make them watch other people being subjected to pain and measure the strength of their empathy response. When the results are analyzed, they show that the empathy response is greater when the person watching is of the same race as the person being subjected to pain. This is not a choice. It is an instinctive, instantaneous reaction that operates below the level of consciousness. The racial empathy gap is one of the most important insights science has ever achieved, yet one that has been almost completely ignored by the mainstream arbiters of what we are allowed to know. And for good reason. It radically calls into question the ideology and policy agenda of the ruling class. It tells us that the forced diversity program they are enacting is the prelude to future disaster. Without empathy, without the fellow feeling that comes from genetic similarity, the population of a country is just an agglomeration of individuals; or rather, ethnic factions; a cockpit of seething tensions that will, sooner or later, explode. Yet, thanks to the power of Semitic sophistry, we, the ones who warn about this impending disaster, are the ones blamed for creating it. Most of the world’s conflicts arise because peoples who lack empathy with one another are forced to share the same space. But why are they in the same space at all? Because racism failed. At some point in the past, they or their ancestors weren’t racist enough. If they had been more strongly or successfully racist, they would have been able to prevent outsiders intruding on their domain, nipping future conflicts in the bud – whether those conflicts ultimately take the form of wars, terrorism campaigns or massacres in shopping malls. If people from the future could travel back to warn us, their message would always be: “Be more racist. Turn the racism factor up to 11, no 12, and just leave it there, OK? Trust me on this.” A small amount of racism at the start can prevent a genocidal civil war later. ... In other news, fwiw, TDS is back on the clearnet, at least till the next Semitic-authored crackdown: For those who missed the memo: We Back Live Now on the Normal Net, Nigga http://dstormer6em3i4km.onion/we-back-live-now-on-the-normal-net-nigga/ … For those who missed it, 8chan was banned from Cloudflare and switched to Bitmitigate, http://dstormer6em3i4km.onion/cloudflare-drops-8chan-after-third-shooter-ma… at which point Bitmitigate’s BGP peers were shut off, http://dstormer6em3i4km.onion/8chan-fucked-us-clearnet-site-down-for-a-whil… which also meant our site went down.

Without a race, there will be no individuals of that race, optimal biological partners are third and fourth cousins, see "An Association Between the Kinship and Fertility of Human Couples", they have the most healthy babies. Outbreeding is breeding without one's "race" which could be defined to be really 6th cousins and beyond, and it's a thing that can be as genetically dangerous as inbreeding which is breeding with siblings and 1st cousins. https://science.sciencemag.org/content/319/5864/813 I think the idea it is possible to blend all races successfully without simply causing mass unfitness and mass defects in anything less than ten thousand years is mere imperial delusions of grandeur spurred on by madmen's pride. nuntius interficere non, fortes fortuna iuvat

Critical Infrastructure As Weapon: Kashmir Telecom Blackout
by grarpamp 10 Aug '19

10 Aug '19

https://www.totaltele.com/503591/Kashmirs-telecoms-blackout-When-critical-i… Kashmir Telecom Blackout When critical infrastructure becomes a weapon. Large parts of the Indian State of Jammu and Kashmir were subjected to a total telecommunications blackout this week, as the Indian government passed new legislation to reduce the region’s political autonomy Kashmir’s mobile and fixed line telecoms networks fell silent this week, as the Indian government implemented a telecommunications blackout following escalating tensions in the troubled province. On Sunday evening, the Indian government cut telecommunication lines in the region, leaving Kashmiris without mobile phone or fixed line communication services. The move came as the Indian government announced that it would be revoking Article 370 – a special decree that gives Kashmir a greater degree of political autonomy than any other Indian state. In doing so, it has sparked huge unrest in the province and ramped up the already fractious dialogue between India and neighbouring Pakistan. Kashmir has been a flashpoint for separatist violence since India was granted full independence from British rule in 1947, with religious and ethnic tensions flaring between those who favour Indian, Pakistani and even independent rule. The current escalation in tensions shows how critical telecommunications infrastructure is to people's everyday lives. If you want to render a militant group or insurgency movement inert, the first thing you do is to shut down the region's mobile phone networks. It works - but in the process you are also grinding the day to day lives of your citizens to a halt and causing potentially life-threatening isolation. The situation in Kashmir raises so many questions: To what extent should the government be able to revoke access to connectivity? Have we reached a point where people are entitled to demand connectivity as a fundamental human right? When do the interests of national security trump the rights of millions of people? For everyday Kashmiris, the telecommunications blackout is having a profound effect on their ability to do business and provide basic services. Worse still, it is already affecting key services such as healthcare. “We are managing for now,” a senior hospital official in the region’s main city of Srinagar told journalists from Reuters https://www.reuters.com/article/us-india-kashmir/second-day-of-telecoms-bla… adding that conditions were worsening. Shop keepers in the region also warned of imminent food shortages, unless the telecommunications blackout was lifted soon. “No provisions are left in my shop, and no fresh supplies are coming,” grocery store owner, Jehangir Ahmad, told Reuters. As the Indian government struggles to suppress the growing resentment on the streets of Kashmir, the State’s telecoms blackout could end up being a catalyst for dissent, as people rail against the disruption to their lives. Indian Telcos haemorrhaging money at a time when they can least afford it In addition to the bevvy of practical and philosophical questions the telecommunications blackout raises, there is also the very real question of who will be expected to bare the financial cost. Indian mobile network operators are already surviving on starvation rations, with the average ARPU for the industry hovering somewhere between $1.50. All this at a time when they are expected to be investing multiple billions of dollars in capex for their 5G networks, due to launch next year. A report in the Business Standard https://www.business-standard.com/article/current-affairs/telcos-to-lose-rs… said that the enforced blackout could end up costing Indian telcos as much as $40-$50 million per day in lost revenues (4-5 crore rupees). The report shows that Bharti Airtel stood to lose the most, with 5.64 million subscribers in Jammu and Kashmir. Next up was Reliance Jio with 3.31 million, whilst the newly merged Vodafone Idea had 1.34 million and state owned BNSL another 1.21 million. None of those operators will relish the prospect of having to reimburse customers for failing to provide services – especially given that the current situation is way beyond their control. As the crisis in Kashmir continues, civilians and MNOs alike will be hoping that critical telecoms services can be restored as soon as possible.
