If you're looking to find reality in the physical world, you won't find it. How can this be? Nothing in the physical world is real. There is nothing there. However...

In 1974, only 52 years ago, the Muslim barbarian Turks invaded Cyprus and committed crimes against Greeks that the human mind cannot comprehend and the whole world never heard about them. Mass murders of civilians were carried out systematically by the Turkish army. Not only unarmed soldiers who had surrendered, but also civilians, including children aged from 6 months to 11 years old, women, and elderly people up to 90 years of age, even paralysed individuals, people with intellectual disabilities, and blind people, were killed by Turkish soldiers. Eyewitnesses reported the killing of hundreds of persons by the Turkish forces. The accusations also include the murder of individuals who had attempted to visit areas under Turkish military control in order to collect their belongings from their homes. According to the report, the Turkish committed mass and repeated rapes of Greek Christian women of all ages, from 12 to 71 years old, in some cases to such an extent that the victims suffered from haemorrhages (loss of blood from a damaged blood vessel) or were left as mental wrecks. All the women and girls were gathered in separate rooms of empty houses. There they were repeatedly raped by the Turkish troops. In some cases, members of the same family were repeatedly raped in front of their own children. In other cases, women were raped publicly in a bestial manner. In some instances, the rapes were accompanied by brutal acts, such as violent biting that caused serious wounds to the victims, banging of the head on the floor, and strangling of the neck almost to the point of suffocation. In several cases, attempts at rape were accompanied by stabbing or the killing of the victim. Pregnant women were also among the rape victims. Among many other cases, a mentally retarded girl was raped in her home by twenty soldiers, one after the other. When the victim began to scream, they threw her from the window of the second floor: she suffered a spinal injury and remained paralysed. "They put us in a school classroom in Voni, along with the rest of the family. They would come in whenever they wanted, choose us, and take us to satisfy their sexual desires. I didn't go out to get rations. I always wore my grandmother's clothes to look old, but they could see my face. I only went out when I needed the toilet. I was constantly wrapped in a blanket, and all the little kids sat on top of me so that the Turks wouldn't keep dragging me away and raping me. This lasted for three months, until the Red Cross arrived." Testimonies from women victims of rape during the Turkish invasion of Cyprus in 1974. The crime described took place in the occupied village of Voni in the Nicosia province, which had been used by the Turkish army as a detention camp for women and children. Similar camps had also been set up in the villages of Vitsada, Marathovouno, and Gypsou in the Famagusta province, where, according to testimonies, systematic rapes were committed by the Turkish army. Hundreds were also the abortions that were carried out en masse in the second half of 1974 in Cyprus. According to testimonies from doctors recorded in the book by Chrysanthos Chrysanthou, "The Other War of the Doctors in 1974," hundreds of brutally abused women became pregnant and special legislation had to be passed so that they could terminate their pregnancies. Many abortions were performed in private clinics, several at the Nicosia General Hospital, while due to the overcrowding of that hospital with war wounded, many abortions were undertaken by doctors at the hospitals of the British Bases in Dhekelia and Akrotiri. Previously, many other women had miscarried using abortion pills, which were distributed to them by the Red Cross while they were still in the Turkish army's detention camps; a fact that leads to the conclusion that the brutalities of the Turkish soldiers were known even before the liberation of the captive women. It is noted that, in order to facilitate the process of mass abortions, even the Church of Cyprus had consented through its tolerance to the amendment of the legislation in 1974, so that the abortions of that period became legal. This happened 52 years ago. This happened to our mothers, to our sisters, to our grandmothers. We will never forget, so this will never happen again. We will rest when the terrorist state of Turkey will be destroyed.

They’re just like us!

🚨 MAMDANI: “The wealth of a median white household in the city is more than $200,000, while that of a black household is less than $20,000 … We are reckoning with the long history of racism here and starting to act upon a framework that puts equity right at the center of it.”

We, the undersigned, citizens and residents of Canada,, call upon the House of Commons to amend the Parliament of Canada Act to require that any Member of Parliament who crosses the floor to join another registered political party must vacate their seat and trigger a by-election in their riding, while permitting them to sit as an independent without such a requirement. ourcommons.ca/petitions/en/P…

In the aftermath of WW2, Hong Kong was a bombed-out British colony of 600,000 refugees, with no natural resources and a per capita income lower than many African nations. But by the 1980s it had become one of the richest places on earth. The man most responsible was John Cowperthwaite, Financial Secretary from 1961 to 1971. Cowperthwaite refused to plan the economy. He cut taxes to a flat 15 %, scrapped tariffs and subsidies, rejected industrial policy, and even stopped collecting detailed economic statistics - lest civil servants use the numbers to meddle. “I did very little”, he said. “All I did was to try to prevent some of the things that might have been done.” Government spending stayed below 15 % of GDP. Markets, not ministers, decided what to produce. The result was explosive growth: poverty collapsed, skyscrapers rose, and Hong Kong’s income overtook Britain’s. Today, most Western governments still strangle their economies with taxes and regulations, ignoring the lesson Hong Kong proved: the surest path to prosperity is to get out of the way.

@prowrstlngstrng He plays the fool and makes everyone else the fool

Has a man existed in modern history as capable of psychically breaking people as Donald Trump? Even smart people get completely steamrolled by him They lose their minds and become tards Never seen anything like it

The ego that Canadians have and the deep distain for America is based on what? This is a scathing but very accurate description of Canada's true relationship to the US. @jasonjamesbnn

Trump just announced a two-week ceasefire with Iran and I need everyone to understand what actually happened here because the headlines are going to be hilariously wrong by morning. For five weeks, every foreign policy expert on earth has been saying Trump's deadlines are meaningless. He threatens, he extends, nothing happens. 'Classic bluff.' Except during every single extension, Iran quietly let more ships through the Strait of Hormuz. First Chinese ships. Then Indian ships. Then French, Japanese, Omani. The strait went from "fully closed, global crisis" to "selectively open, we're just doing a toll booth thing now" ...and somehow nobody in mainstream media connected those dots. Tonight Trump posts: ceasefire, two weeks, BUT Iran has to fully open the strait. Not partially. Not the toll booth version. Fully. And Iran already sent a ten-point proposal and almost all the points are agreed to. The country with no navy, no Supreme Leader, no missile production, and no nuclear program just sent a ten-point proposal to negotiate. That's writing your terms of surrender in a nice font. Pakistan literally flew to Washington and asked Trump to please stop because they think they can close the deal. A nuclear-armed neighbor of Iran is begging the United States for two more weeks. But tomorrow morning you will read "TACO Trump Blinks on Iran Deadline" in seventeen different publications, all written by people who have been wrong about every deadline so far and see no reason to start being right now. The deadlines worked. They were always working. Go to sleep. The world is not ending tonight.

Someday, the world will study the Canadian psyop. They’ll pull up polls like this one, delivered with the usual graphics and the patronizing “the data shows” tone. It’s the classic “everyone agrees” fallacy in action. No invasion. No tanks. Just relentless conditioning and endless narrative reinforcement.

@ButlerLonney I think you might be right, said every remaining high net worth family in Canada

I don't care if you just immigrated here or if your family came over with Samuel de Champlain in 1603. If you don't like Canada because your chosen political party didn't win, then leave. Seriously. If you can't respect the choices of the majority of Canadians, then go. No hard feelings. You'll be happier and the Canadians who chose this government will be happier too.

Nigerian immigrant to Canada coaches other immigrants about how to get free food, free transportation, free furniture, free education, free daycare, free dental and other free services. This is the type of mindset that they have, even though they are supposed to show proof of funds before being admitted into the country. Our government has made their grift so easy.

Hmmmm who actually got genocided

@mazemoore @contrarian4data She absolves everyone of responsibility for everything so that she can absolve herself

Gavin Newsom's wife recalls telling prisoners at San Quentin about running over and killing her sister with a golf cart. She said that she wasn't punished because it was an accident but that the prisoners are doing life even though theirs was "probably an accident too."

a great day to share this graph

@SolBrah I'm just a 2nd law of thermodynamics enjoyer, standing in front of a $24 billion per year propaganda machine, asking it for experimental evidence for how it breaks the laws of physics.
