@AlexandreDolors Eixos que diu vosté són abans d'esquerres; i després, "valencianistes". Pero es pot construir una societat, un país (independent o autònom) sense una mínima cohesió cultural i identitària?

@Jorcaiba El que sí que sé és que vaig tenir la llibertat de portar els neus fills a línia en valencià i els que es creuen el top de la defensa del valencià la van llevar. Menys demagògia, per favor!

Veritats com a punys sobre la llei Rovira que tot amant de la llengua valenciana, del partit que siga, ha de saber: 1) La "llibertat d'ensenyança" que proclama la Construcció no atorga a les famílies el dret a triar la llengua vehicular en l'educació obligatòria dels seus fills.

Los anticos grècos (de la Grècia actuale con las soas ísolas, Cipre, lo sude de Italia, Asia Menore, etc.) summavan approximatamente uno 5 ad 6% de la humanitate de la època! Como acora la UE aut los SUA!
Herald of Rome@HeraldOfRome

Something most people do not realize is that the ancient Greek population may have been around 5–6% of humanity. For comparison, that is close to the European Union today, which is around 5.4% of the world population, and above the United States, which is around 4%. If we count mainland Greece, Asia Minor, Cyprus, Sicily, southern Italy, the Black Sea, and the rest of the Greek Mediterranean, estimates for the fourth century BC reach around 7.5–10 million Greeks, while the whole world population was probably around 160 million. So ancient Greeks were not a tiny people demographically. The difference today is that the rest of the world, including much larger and more fertile lands, populated massively over time, while modern Greeks are limited to only part of the much wider ancient Greek world. This is also why the idea that Greeks were too small to leave any genetic impact in Anatolia makes little sense. The Greeks had a major demographic base before the Hellenistic period, and after Alexander, Greek settlement spread in almost all of Anatolia. Most of the Hellenization of the east was not Hellenization in the modern sense of states forcing people through schools and language laws. It came through mass Greek colonization, where Greek-speaking settlers moved east, founded cities and communities, mixed with local populations, and increased the number of native Greek speakers. Greek did not spread just because it was a prestige language. Sources: bmcr.brynmawr.edu/2007/2007.04.58 census.gov/data/tables/ti…

Al·leg 27. L’Informe de l’Acadèmia no analitza moltes parts de l’Estudi (entre altres, la dotzena d’aportacions que fa). Però assegura que «l’ha analitzat exhaustivament»; i, assentat en eixa afirmació, assegura que «no aporta cap novetat rellevant». https:academia.edu/165579408/Al_l…

French & English slaves in North Africa often described Moors as compassionate unlike Moriscos. They chatted in lingua franca, shared London stories, sang English songs, and even formed lasting friendships some ex-captives later traded with former masters or married local women:

The press is still pretty free in most of Europe. Europe’s press remains a quiet strength: diverse, independent, and largely free to challenge power. In a world where media freedom is under pressure, that’s not something to take for granted.

Her name was Josie. She was a 17-year-old blind lioness in South Africa. Her two daughters hunted for her every day. They also used her to hunt. Prey would freeze and stare at the blind lioness while Dawn and Duffy snuck around and attacked from behind. She lived in Addo Elephant National Park. She was put down this past October. She was older than almost any wild lioness on record. The oldest ever was a lioness called Mathata. She made it to 19. Most wild lionesses only make it to 15 or 16. Josie spent her last five years nearly blind, and she still got there. Her right eye went first. Then her left started to fade. She would stumble sometimes as she walked. She'd call out softly so she could follow Dawn and Duffy by their voices. Lions usually don't look after their sick or injured. Wild animals rarely do. In May 2019, Josie had three grown sons. All three were sedated for a move to another reserve. One brother took longer than the other two to come out of it. He was groggy. He wobbled when he tried to stand up. His two brothers killed him right there on the spot. Her daughters did the opposite, and the reason has a name. Biologists call it kin selection. A biologist named Bill Hamilton wrote it up in 1964. You share a lot of your genes with your kids, your siblings, your parents. So if you help those people survive, you're helping some of your own genes survive. Evolution rewards that. Female lions stay in the pride they're born into for life. Males leave. So a daughter grows up next to her mother. She shares her mother's genes. Helping her mother stay alive helps keep those genes going. A son doesn't get that same payoff. He'll be forced out of the pride eventually. A brother who can't walk straight won't help him survive what comes after. Josie lived past the age any wild lion has any right to reach, nearly blind, in the company of the two animals who had the most reason in the world to keep her alive.

A 17-year-old lioness survived for 5 years with blindness because her daughters refused to abandon her.
