An Ovis Aries Revolution! – My Contribution to “Unherd” – I Doubt It Will Be Printed! (31.1.2025)

Sheep are very sensitive animals. This includes goats and rams – not always the same thing. Under Labour, the manner in which sheep congregate together has subtly shifted. In the average flock today, the shepherds will tell you that their is a profound sense of fear seven-days a week – and not just on Market-Day – or when the “special” lorry arrives. The texture of the wool has diminished in quality – as has the production of milk and meat. As you know, sheep-milk is used to make a myriad of alternative dairy products – including niche cheese and yoghurt. Yes – such products cost a little more – but this reflects the greater extent of labour required to manufacture these products.

Far-Right Hypocrisy and [2024] Boots Xmas Advert! (30.11.2024)

The typical (Christian) Monastic Rule states that on the day of the birth of Jesus Christ (Christmas Day), the monks, nuns and lay-observants (oblates), are solemn, humble, conscientious, profoundly aware, and committed to the structures of the Rule they follow. The interesting thing, however, is that the day of Christ’s birth is no more – and no less – significant than any other of the 364 days that exist throughout the year within the monastic cycle. Yes – various holy days (including Christmas Day) attract specific sermons and rituals – but these are inserted into the general daily framework of the Monastic Rule itself. Extra-food and extra-drink (outside of that already permitted by the Rule) is not allowed. A break from the daily round of monastic duty (outside the Rule) is not allowed. Finally, as the monastics and lay-observants own “nothing” (not even their robes) – there is never any giving of gifts (private property is not permitted under the Rule).

South Africa: Indigenous People Complain About “Christian” Backwardness! (18.12.2023)

“Many people they listen too much to media not to the reality, so the reality, here it is, it was chocolate.”

The Commission which is chaired by Thoko Mkhwanazi-Xaluva said that Mnguni, who appeared for the first time in months, will face further charges should he continue feeding his followers such things.

Mnguni, who has maintained that he turns the rats into peanuts before feeding them to his congregation said that he will go back to preaching soon despite the warning from the Commission.

The CRL is conducting hearings into the abuse of religion and cultural beliefs.

Galilee Refugee Camp – Lebanon: “All Weapons Toward the Front – the Resistance Continues!” – PFLP Warriors Defy Zionist Oppression! (10.12.2023)

After welcoming the Attendees and discussing the situation – the Front’s Official in the Bekaa – Badr Musa – spoke about the deep meaning underlying the historical beginning, the importance of the political (dialectical) stage in which the Palestinian issue is passing through! This speech stressed the necessity of forming a Unified National Leadership at the Palestinian National Level! This is in order to confront the current stage of enhanced Western and Zionist aggression and the liquidation of all the genocidal projects targeting the Palestinian people! He also Saluted the steadfastness of the Palestinian people in Gaza and the West Bank – and their continued (valiant) Resistance in the face of the Zionist Neo-Nazis and their ethnic cleansing!
