Theory: Netanyahu is an utterly disgusting and revolting person and the Yankee supreme leaders all genuinely hate him. However, the imperialist project is too important to them to let petty personal squabbles interfere.

Danish City Launches “Emergency Response Schools” for Disruptive Youth, Drawing Fire from Educators, Experts and NGOs
A new model aims to remove violent students from classrooms — but critics warn it revives failed and out-dated disciplinary methods, risks harming vulnerable children and diverts hard-needed resources from public schools.
The Danish city of Odense is introducing a new “emergency response school” model designed to remove students who display violent or severely disruptive behavior. Starting June 1, 2025, students involved in serious incidents — such as physical assault or threats — can be sent for up to 15 days to a separate facility for what officials call “an intensive social-pedagogical intervention” aimed at rehabilitating them before reintegration into regular classrooms.

The initiative follows a series of violent episodes at Agedrup School last year, where students assaulted peers, made knife threats, and committed sexual assault. In response, more than 100 parents petitioned the city, prompting swift political action.
Supported by officials from the Social Democrats, the centre-right Radical Left, and the Conservative Party, the program is framed as a necessary measure to protect students and restore classroom order. But it has sparked strong criticism from child welfare NGOs, education experts, and the Teachers’ Union, who warn it represents a punitive shift away from inclusive, evidence-based practices and diverts hard-needed resources from public schools.
“This is a return to methods that was used many, many years ago in Denmark that were currently in some cases apologizing for,” said Rasmus Kjeldahl, Director of Børns Vilkår, a leading children’s rights organization.
Experts in child development caution that concentrating vulnerable students in segregated environments risks fostering negative peer dynamics and stigmatization. Tine Basse Fisker, a scholar in youth education, warns the model could easily reinforce the very behaviors it aims to correct.
The new “emergency response school” will accommodate up to seven students at a time, with each placement costing the student’s original school about DKK 50,000 (approx. RMB 55,000). An additional DKK 5.7 million (RMB 6.2 million) budget has been allocated from the city to the new facility.
Critics argue these funds would be better spent strengthening the capacity of regular schools to support struggling students before crises emerge. Charlotte Holm, head of the Odense Teachers’ Union, acknowledges that the city is addressing real problems but she finds the “emergency response school” to be a misallocating resources. She points out that the funds could have much better enabled teachers to prevent violent incidents in regular schools.
Louise Klinge of the National Council for Children agrees. “All children develop positively when they’re given supportive environments and relationships", she explains. However, she tells, Denmark’s understaffed, austerity-ridden schools often fail to provide that.
Fisker echoes these sentiments and adds that rising behavioral problems are the result of years of cuts to both public schools and preschool childcare. According to the scholar, investing in inclusive, well-funded public education would be far more effective than maintaining expensive specialised facilities.
City leaders remain firm. “We’re focused on the victims,” said Birgitte Nørrelund, deputy chair of Odense’s children and youth committee for the Conservative Party. “Theory is one thing. But when children are being harmed, we have to act.”
They are backed up by Matthias Tesfaye, the hard-right head of Denmark’s Social Democrat-Controlled Ministry of Education who has expressed willingness to change the law to accommodate the “emergency response school” model — as long as it doesn’t require government funding.
The program reflects a broader Western trend toward reactive, enforcement-driven responses to social challenges — often at the expense of systemic reform. In that light, Denmark’s crisis school appears to prioritize containment over care, and short-term political reassurance of reactionary gut feelings over long-term solutions.
As the central government continues to throw astronomical sums at its megalomaniacal project of aggressive military buildup, behavioural problems are rising in the troubled nation’s chronically underfunded schools and childcare institutions. With other municipalities, including Copenhagen, now weighing similar models, Odense may be setting a precedent for dealing with these issues — one that, critics warn, sacrifices inclusion and rehabilitation for quick fixes and appeasement of an uninformed public’s worst instincts.

The Erdogan style move would be to arrest both of them
Let’s see how much sovereignty he will allow that “state” to have. It is probably intended to be the zionist Manchukuo. I will be surprised if they’ll even be allowed to have a football team.
301·4 days agoGoebbels certainly didn’t believe in the right to privacy but there is nothing connecting him to the “if you have nothing to hide…” quote. He certainly wasn’t the first to come up with it, as it can be found in a 1917 piece by Upton Sinclair.
It seems like Goebbels’ connection to the quote is one of these “it feels so true that it has to be true” misattributions that floats around on the internet and in popular culture.
And by the way, the NSA are Nazis, they are bad people doing bad things for evil reasons.
20·4 days agoI know this is a joke post but I agree. Using virgin as an insult does reinforce toxic ideas of gender and sexuality and contributes to making virgins feel ashamed of themselves.
There are plenty of reasons why people stay virgin. Some do it by choice, some have issues preventing them from being sexually active. Neither deserves derision.
I once belonged to the last category due to mental health stuff. It sucked not being able to form that kind of relationships to other people and the toxic idea of virginity being shameful made it suck even more.
6·4 days agoI disagree. “Primitive” hunter/gatherer people would never deliberately starve children to death. To do something that evil you need civilization.
It takes a very complex society with a sophisticated ideological superstructure and to dehumanise people so much.
11·4 days agoIt gets worse yet, in Catholic doctrine the pope is not just elected by a bunch of old men, the holy ghost is interceding in the election, making the pope selected by God.
When tradcaths are mad about who get to be pope, they are being mad at God.
Biden was lawful evil while Trump is chaotic evil, a far less efficient evil.

According to NATOpedia, this is what the new pope thinks about stuff:
Pope Leo XIV has opposed the ordination of women to the diaconate. As a bishop Prevost opposed the inclusion of curriculum regarding “teachings on gender in schools” in Peru, stating that the “promotion of gender ideology is confusing, because it seeks to create genders that don’t exist”. An acquaintance of Pope Leo XIV, Jesus Leon Angeles, noted that he cares for Venezuelan refugees in Peru.
Homosexuality
In 2012, Prevost lamented that popular culture fostered “sympathy for beliefs and practices that are at odds with the Gospel”, citing the “homosexual lifestyle” and “alternative families comprised of same-sex partners and their adopted children”.
He said some nice things about peace which is always welcome in these times and there is the anecdote of him telling Fujimori to fuck off but he definitely has some vile and bigoted views.
I would watch a gritty action movie about a Swiss Guard special ops elite operator on a mission to kill Vance and avenge Francis
He’s a mere 69 years old, that’s young for a pope, almost young enough to be afraid of his own priests.
Ah, a traditionalist
They won’t even have to do that. They can just go out and say “yeah we totally stopped a dangerous terrorist, no you can’t know the details because of national security” and everybody is going to love them for it.
What about saving some of that energy for the dogshit genocidal party that refused to do anything that would make people want to vote for them?
