    “Wolves are being tortuously murdered by ruthless trophy hunting methods. Choked to death by snares. Legs mangled in traps. Chased down by helicopters. Even being blown up in their dens — including wolf mamas and their pups.

    Federal courts ruled to reinstate the endangered species listing for gray wolves in the majority of the lower 48 states to try and mitigate the fragile population of these beloved animals — but the Biden administration has filed an appeal to REVERSE these critical protections. If we don’t act immediately, more gray wolves will be slaughtered, and we could lose this precious canine forever.”

    “Blood group?”
    “Anglo-Saxon with a dash of Viking.”

    “I’m telling you, you CAN’T give a Jew a Catholic blood transfusion. It wouldn’t work, would it? It wouldn’t work! It wouldn’t mix, you daft …”

    Just as people’s “knowledge” of prehistory is limited to a Raquel Welch movie, so they also assume that the nation always existed. I am asked, “What was the flag of Ancient Greece?”

    The nationalist, holding his mother’s hand, and she holding her mother’s hand, and so on in a line of only 500 miles, the one at the end of the line would be a nonhuman.

    Why are we not the sub-species to them?

    I think getting embroiled with Lefties doesn’t serve socialism in the slightest.
    They are a tiny minority, all of them, and can be left to fester. The more we get into polemics with them, the more we become, like them, alienated from the majority of the working class.

    All hominids are from Africa. Of course, new species branched off later. I don’t know when Neanderthals did, but they were, I believe, restricted to the icy northern hemisphere.

    Considering we all came from the womb, doesn’t anyone ponder as to why most of us have to pay others in order to get heat, food, clothing and shelter?

    Wouldn’t diet have also had a role in Neanderthal extinction? Inhabiting the northern hemisphere in the Ice Age they did not have the varied diet of southern hominids.

    Why are the French not having to pay exorbitantly?

    I’ve not been following this thread. Can I have, in a nutshell please, an SPGB analysis of why our bills are increasing, given that the UK doesn’t depend on Russian gas?

    But will Lula continue with the burning of the Amazon, the massacre of its wildlife and the genocide of its natives? Isn’t all that Bolsonaro?
