    https://evolution-outreach.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.1007/s12052-009-0132-5. Social darwinism is not the same as Darwinism

    https://www.wpr.org/isaac-newtons-secret-alchemy. Alchemy meant Chemistry ( chymistry ) in the 17 century, it was not magic

    The first scientific concepts came thru Paganism, and Dr Alberto Baldor books on mathematics shows that

    The peoples who support Trump have a particular political point of view, and the anti vaxxers are also related to a particular political point of view, and some of them have committed criminal acts like killing doctors and nurses, they have attacked workers from other countries, and the are antisemite, and holocaust denier, and they have been incited by those journalists, they support Russia at the present time because they just want to make opposition to the democrats, as soon as their leaders moved to the top they must follow the flow of the capitalist class. Trump and his followers are being called Fascists and Nazis by Antifa
    like the ones labelled as fascists by Putin in Ukraine, in this case Antifa must support Putin

    A philisopher’s stone is magic no matter how you spin it.

    Darwin was racist and sexist.

    What does Trump have to do with anything? What you smoking?

    “Just like a hand grenade will never be a vacuum cleaner, the Guardian will never be a “news” paper. The role of the Guardian is not to act as a venue for the expression of free ideas it is an apparatus for manufacturing consent.”

    LOL TS. You are as ever, endlessly amusing. Granted, the Guardian is a capitalist newspaper that will frame the news from a capitalist perspective. But do you seriously imagine the trashy far-right capitalist organs like the racist “Russia-Insider” and others you draw your “facts” from are any different?? They pump out the pro-capitalist propaganda of the obnoxious Putin regime you simp for and you buy it all, lock stock, and barrel, without question and without demur.

    Don’t forget – you were the one that started this daft line of argument that just because the Guardian is a liberal capitalist organ we can safely reject anything it says as false. Facts are to be judged not by their connection with reality but by the political acceptability of the source revealing them according to you. Now that that argument has boomeranged back on you are trying desperately to backtrack.

    It makes you cringe but I am sure our resident apologist for the Russian capitalist regime will endorse her sentiments!:

    “A Russian state TV commentator and longtime ally of President Vladimir Putin is encouraging Russians to die rather than lose to Ukraine and the West. Margarita Simonyan, the head of RT who is not eligible for conscription because she is a woman and media member, said during the most recent broadcast of Sunday Evening with Vladimir Solovyov that the war is worth people dying because the world is at a “dead end” due to lack of values”.

    I did not want to reply but I want to make certain clarification. Those were research made by two doctors in Biology and Chemistry, you will reject anything in order to justify your mistakes including the law of physics

    Have you studied Molecular/celular biology, organic and inorganic chemistry ? Racism is a sociological creation, it is not a biological creation, and Darwin was not racist, it was social darwinism who created that conception,( it is a seudo science ) and most naturalist scientists were philosophers, and most of the antique philosophers of Greece were materialist and dialectical and during Marx time philosophy was the primary discipline for analysis including idealist philosophy, like in the 1844 Manuscripts.

    Newton was a natural philosopher and the concept of philosopher stone was created by a poet,( the concept became popular with a movie ) and there was not such thing as a stone, it was a powder,( we are dusts ) and chemists studied powder, like ecologists and anthropologist study the earth and the components of the earth, and civil engineer study stone when they are studying the soil components to build the foundation of a building or a house

    In Cuba and Jamaica they had natural pharmacologists which the catholic church labelled them as practicians of witchcraft, but it was wrong, because they used roots, herbs, sticks ( paleros ) fruits and earth earth dust to create medications, pharmacology originally was viewed as demonic practice and it is the base for medications and drugs, and pharmacology is part of the curriculum of medicine which evolved from the Greek, and other old culture like the Egyptian which used plants and garlic as medication and to treat hypertension

    There is not such thing as a philosopher stone, philosophers were divided into two camps: Idealists or materialist philosophers, and some have combined both like the Marxist Humanist dialectician, and Marx and Engels described both conception on the German Ideology

    Trump is mentioned because your mixed natural sciences with journalism, and most of the journalist that you are supporting they are trump followers.

    You concept of ideology is wrong, it is the traditional bourgeois definition. Ideology was expressed by Marx and Engels in the Communist Manifesto and in some of theirworks, and for them ideology were the prevailing ideas of the ruling class in a class society ( distortion of the reality ) and Engels called it false consciousness, therefore, ideology have economic and class basis, that is the reason why we reject all ideologies

    RT is a mouthpiece of the Russian capitalist class, like Pravda was a mouthpiece of the soviet capitalist class, but sometimes they have good articles, and we can take the best part of it, and BBC, the Guardian are mouth piece of the British ruling class, but sometimes they also have good articles, like some leftist newspaper they also have good articles and we publish them here including trotskyists, Leninist and stalinists.

    The war correspondents they also risked their life in the old days trying to provide objective news, and they worked for capitalist newspapers, in Colombia and Mexico some journalists have been killed and some of them used La Jornada ( or commercial newspapers ) which is a mouthpiece of the Mexican government and the cuban ideology. Marx used many bourgeois newspapers and books doing his research, but he took the best part of them.

    In order to write an articles about India we do not have to go that country, we use other journals for research and we take the best part from them, it is like doing a thesis on a specific ideas or treatise and we extract from every source the best part.

    The Washington Post ( owned now by Jeff Bezos ) published all the Watergate papers, and they had a lot of difficulties to do it, but they exposed many information about Richard Nixon, and the White House, and most leftist newspaper used that information to write articles from their own point of view, Gary Webs was a journalist for the Mercury and he exposed Ronald Reagan , and Nicaragua contras dealing with drugs and money to pay for the war in Nicaragua

    Remind me of one protestant religious writer who was always attacking the Catholic, the post canonic bible, but then he discovered that all sources used by his church came from catholic encyclopedia, theological books from the jesuits and the salesians, and from the l’observatore romano and from the vulgata, or the Nacar Colunga

    Interesting that TS has not as yet answered any questions about whether or not he agrees with the Chinese Communist Party’s approach to Pol Pot and his gang. He often just ignores awkward questions, or thinks that a string of pathetic insults will distract, a kind of state capitaist Boris Johnson.

    This recent essay by Yanis Varoufakis tries to explain how his nuanced third-camp position is hi-jacked by both the right and left wing.

    “The women, students, and workers rising up across Iran are adamant: They will neither submit to the fascism hidden behind the regime’s pseudo-anti-imperialism nor surrender their country to the hegemony of the US or their economy to financialized capital.
    They are learning the hard way how to refuse misleading binary oppositions (neoliberalism-statism, imperialism-autocracy, patriarchy-consumerism). I hope and trust that they can teach us to do likewise. It is another reason why we must support their struggle.”

    BD, having for years fought the French and USA, in 1979 Vietnam then fought an invasion from China which called it a “self-defensive war”.

    Vietnam, more accurately called it a war against Chinese expansionism.

    Who is the imperialist? China?

    Or Vietnam for invading Cambodia?

    I remember footage of the PLA burning Vietnamese villages while singing “We are the people’s army.”

    That scientist had conciliatory view with religion, specially with the Catholic Church, and the Vatican has always opposed Darwin, and the article does not have any scientific rigor because it was written based on social darwinism

    “Trump is mentioned because your mixed natural sciences with journalism, and most of the journalist that you are supporting they are trump followers.”

    No, most of the journalists I read are not Trump supposrters. I don’t have much positive to say about the man beyond the fact that he didn’t start any new wars which is quite rare for an Amrican president.

    “It is another reason why we must support their struggle.”

    The uprising is another CIA orchestrated color revolution. It is already spent. It was an abject failure. There’s nothing left for the Iranian authorities to do but mop up.

    BTW, what does this article have to do with the Russia/Ukraine conflict?

    I’m not here to talk Pol Pot, I’m here to talk Russia/Ukraine. You know, the thread topic? The fact Alan is not moderating as he should is not my problem. So suck it up buttercup.

    The Russians are in no danger of losing so her sentiments are misplaced.
