UK: Weird News from England – Shakespeare Puts Kibosh on “Young Bible Revival” Claim! (27.3.2026)

Deary, deary me – as if there is not already enough problems in the world manufactured by the belief in non-existent “sky-spirits”! We already have (allegedly) George Galloway converting to Islam to marry a woman 30-years his junior (ge gas an effective set of lawyers in Northern Ireland – so we must tread carefully), and British academic David Miller posting that “Iran will save Western civilisation”! You can top this with disgruntled former Labour MP – Chris Williamson – who follows a similar line on Press TV (Galloway, his partner, Williamson, and many others -stood outside the US Embassy in London celebrating Trump’s victory in his second term – whilst now denying they did this – as they lament the US and Israeli missiles that are now raining-down on Iran). Where did “White” working-class men get this idea from that a) theistic religion will save the world (when historically it has started all the wars), and b) a foreign and alien religion (Islam) can be imported and used to replace the Christian theology our Secular Society has only just managed to throw-off after more than a thousand-years of intellectual and physical oppression (the “Closing of the Western Mind” as one British author termed this era)?

The Personal Information Protection Law took effect on Nov 1, 2021

China: Crackdown Intensifies on Misuse of Personal Data! (25.1.2026)

I have been informed the ban is not “blanket” – but rather involves 16 social media sites that are designed for use by adults only. As under-16s should not be on these sites – would a ban matter? The point is that (far-right) White nationalists use adult social media sites to entrap and groom young people – and initiate these unsuspecting minors into Neo-Nazi and neo-fascist propaganda. By banning minors from these adult sites would remove a possible source of recruitment for the far-right. Just as long as our youth is able to still use the net in an appropriate manner – than curbs might not be a bad thing. Even in Socialist China the threat from online criminality – sometimes from outside of China – has been dealt a blow. Twenty-five to thirty years ago – the internet was a free space for sharing – today it has been fully colonised by the capitalists and this has brought an entirely new raft of problems (anarchism was the only problem in 2000 – but that was generally free). Last Thursday – around 200 teenage school-children in Sutton had some kind of tiktok event in Sutton town centre – which initiated a police response and some violence.

Iran: Reuters Claim “Chinese Domestic Firms Barred from Using US, Israeli Cybersecurity Software Amid ‘Security Concerns'” – But is it True? (15.1.2026)

Initially, I came across this article on Press TV via Telegram – but found that Google is “banning” Iranian media – whilst the US and Israel attempt a violent overthrow of the Iranian government. Instead, I had to open the below article via the Microsoft search-engine. Whether wordpress shadow-bans or ghosts this article is anyone’s guess. I have checked the Mainland Chinese-language “Baidu” search-engine for confirmation of this original “Reuters” article – and could not find any reference. Therefore, I would tread carefully. Reuters, just like all the Western news outlets are controlled by the bourgeois establishment and loyally does its (pro-capitalist) bidding. On the other hand, China, like any country, routinely exercises its right to self-defence – just as Iran is doing now.

Recognising Fake News & False Propaganda!

Venezuela: Identifying Fake News & False Propaganda! (13.1.2026)

Trump I (2017-2021) was all about “censoring” expression on social media – left, right, and centre. The alt-right was suppressed alongside the left – with the far-right being encouraged. Trump I even targeted social media platforms with online software attacks irrespective of the owners agreeing – even wordpress came under attack in this manner. Then, when Trump was voted-out and the social media platforms started to “ban” Trump in retaliation – Trump II (2025-2029) is all about “freedom of expression! providing its not left-wing, is pro-America (as in not questioning Trump’s racism or class hatred), and thoroughly racist (pro-White). Either way, the left is completely crushed and dead in the water (although it exists in a disjointed manner on platforms like Telegram). Of course, the legitimate (Maduro) government is broadcasting on Telegram and it is educating its people not to fall for the simplistic online US lies and misdirection. Check with reliable sources and do not accept things at face-value. This also goes for the rest of us as well. Also, beware of the duplicitous Catholic Church.

UK: Media Exhibits “Anti-China” Bias in Fake News Outburst! (23.12.2025)

Waymo, owned by Google’s parent company Alphabet, which operates in San Francisco, has already started testing autonomous taxis in London.

Saber Fallah, a professor of safe AI and autonomy at the University of Surrey, told Metro that the new taxis are likely to be required to have a safety driver inside because of London’s complex road layout, making them autonomous vehicles but not fully driverless.

‘I’m pretty sure they are not going to be fully driverless. The recommendation is going to include a safety driver in the car, so it is not fully driverless,’ he said, adding that the goal of self-driving taxis is to ‘make more profit for the company by not paying drivers and not having to share their profits with the drivers.’

Critique The Diplomat - 2025

Critical Assessment of “Tibet Is Paying the Cost for China’s Green Energy Transition”! (18.11.2025)

While acknowledging localized ecological pressures, this critique contends that the original article relies on selective evidence, omits critical hydrological and mining data, embeds politically motivated narratives unsupported by empirical research, and fails to contextualize Tibet’s environmental governance within broader frameworks of high-altitude ecology, state-led development, and global energy transitions. Drawing on peer-reviewed hydrology studies, official mining datasets, and scholarship in critical media studies, this paper systematically evaluates the article’s central claims, highlights significant omissions, and re-situates observed environmental changes within wider climatic, socioeconomic, and regulatory processes. Synthetically generated yet representative hydrological and mining trend data are incorporated to illustrate how a more holistic, data-informed approach fundamentally reframes the narrative.
