Kevin was a lovely and funny friend during my New York years two decades ago: this is desperately sad news. An untimely and tragic loss. #RIPKevinBleyer

His family said the accident occurred on a rural road where he had a country home.

Remember when Owen Jones said this:
"Vulnerable white girls being targeted by British Pakistani grooming gangs is the sort of thing you expect to read in BNP leaflets"
He went on to say "it Wasn't true" don't ever forget he said this.
My Mum and Dad lived and worked in Aden in 1960 and for a couple of years either side!
Wow, this is what Yemen looked like in the 1960s under British rule. That was over half a century ago, but it looked decades more advanced than Yemen does today.
Itโs almost unbelievable compared to what the country has become. And itโs a testament to how quickly a country can collapse once Islam reigns supreme.

Under capitalism, you can spend your entire life publicly criticizing capitalism, writing books against it, and selling anti-capitalist merch for a profit.
Under communism, writing a single private pamphlet criticizing the party gets you sent to a forced labor camp or put against a wall.
The sheer tolerance of freedom vs. the fragile cowardice of tyranny.

You know that old joke where the far left thinks Jews are fascists and the far right thinks Jews are communists?
Well, they did the meme.

Iโd like to apologise.
The last week has finally made me understand that the real victims of the shocking rise in antisemitism are not Jewish people (and Jewish school children in particular) but Owen Jones, Sarah Helm and Sally Rooney.
I hope theyโre ok and Iโm very sorry for having got this wrong.

Islamo-Leftism Is Not a Conspiracy Theory
Itโs an unrequited love affair
โThe Red-Green alliance does not rest on covert coordination behind the scenes, but on ideological kinship, a shared enemy (Western civilization, modernity and capitalism) and a hefty dose of naivety on one side.โ
โThe bargain is straightforward: leftists coddle Muslims and give them preferential treatment, while Muslims respond by voting for left-wing parties.โ
โWhat makes this love affair tragic is that it is mostly unrequited.โ
โThere may be โQueers for Palestineโ, but there are no โQueers in Palestineโ.โ

The idea that Pinochet, Mussolini, and Franco, who killed under 1% of their countrymen after they took power, were worse than Pol Pot, who murdered about 25% of his, is beyond absurd.
And Pinochet probably did more good than harm overall. Pol Pot, on the other hand, destroyed almost everything he touched. His per capita domestic civilian death toll was higher than everyone on this list.
