it seems to me that not many know that navalny is an avowed nationalist & racist and not just a blonde guy who likes to gently kiss his blonde wife before going to jail and watches “rick & morty”. so here’s a little thread and some of it is pretty personal.

 here is navalny’s 2007 video. “a tooth without a root is called “dead”. a nationalist is someone who doesn’t want the russian root to be removed from the word “russia”. we have the right to be russian in russia, and we will defend it.”
i downloaded it to make sure it won’t disappear but it is still shared by navalny’s official youtube channel. btw, in this video, navalny is introduced in the caption as a “certified nationalist”.
https://t.co/OK2Kq5nkkV
here is another video navalny is not keen to share anymore, in which he compares muslims to cockroaches and flies and recommends shooting them with guns if swatters and shoes fail
https://t.co/xf0yDtA4s5
here is a 2011 interview with navalny where he explains why he goes to the so-called “russian march”, a yearly nationalist gathering, and why he thinks it’s ok to collaborate with nazis
https://t.co/Y3PYscWlZM
you can read about the “russian marches”, what they convey and who participates here https://t.co/truFf8oivF
russian marches are an especially hot topic today because it’s the 11th anniversary of the murder of antifascists stanislav markelov & anastasia baburova at the hands of neo-nazis in russia (i have not found any mentions of that murder by navalny)
the man who masterminded markelov/baburova murder (and other ones) ilya goryachev, marched in the russian marches the very same years when navalny did. here’s some stuff about him
https://t.co/LiUpFIp57B
eventually, navalny stopped going to “russian marches”. so did goryachev, because he’s serving life in prison now. but there have not been indications that navalny is willing to denounce his views
here is a link to navalny’s website with a bunch of materials about migration. “if europe has an “orgy of tolerance” towards islamists, in russia it’s the sodom & gomorrah of lies, hypocrisy, corruption & direct encouragement of aggressive islamism”
https://t.co/ExnwmBlRUS
abstract him from russia & you’ll get a vile picture. if navalny lived in the us, he would be against immigrants form mexico & guatemala. if he lived in france, he’d rant against algerians & the congolese.
and now for some personal stuff. when navalny was running for mayor of moscow in 2013 i visited his campaign office and right then and there they were teaching their volunteers to deflect on questions about his nationalism
the coach, a man whose name i forgot but could find, said navalny’s nationalism doesn’t matter, and then went on a tirade about the need to see “faces like my own” on the streets of moscow, instead of people of other races
i’m a mutt (russian/greek/jewish/ukrainian) as many reading this know, and this was so cravenly and gross that i burst out crying then and there. honestly, anyone who isn’t a monster would be angered. i should have done smth else but i was flabberghasted and unprepared for it
i feel like a conscious effort has been done in the following years to whitewash navalny’s reputation, especially as he realized that socialism is trendy & decided to go after a younger audience who have progressive views on ethnicity, but it was superficial
i recently started searching his profile for nasty stuff & i bet he wiped a whole lot, but still found some gems.
https://t.co/fxFFUVT37u
navalny is very concerned with migrants, but he can accept them if they buy a metro ticket for 2 rides
https://t.co/fdFRypkgTF
navalny’s campaign “stop feeding the caucasus” is aimed at making sure chechnya & other north caucusus are “not a burden” to russia. meanwhile, navalny himself wants to live in europe 🤪
https://t.co/v3t3QPhvjc
apparently, navalny learned the tenets of his anti-muslim rhetoric at yale, where he attended a course, during debates against mosques, and he recreated them in moscow upon his return
https://t.co/x4uXpiEOpJ
and in general, navalny seems like a gross dude who makes cringey jokes about muslim people & constantly crusades against them
https://t.co/U33UaaFNV1
growing up in moscow in the 00s i have seen a lot of disgusting things done by nationalists. they beat up so many of my friends. they brutally killed people. they recruited young idiots. these were the worst years because putin’s government fully supported them.
later, putin’s govt began to crack down on various groups & using nationalist ideas for lofty ideals & imperial ideology, where street combat was not advantageous. but every once in a while horrible crimes still happened, still happen.
political repressions are bad. but most of support for navalny is just a fandom that does not center the real issues like freedom of assembly in russia, the need for a more prominent opposition but most importantly shifts the focus from what the political situation really is
moreover, engaging in the navalny narrative hyped by intelligence/tech/liberal circles does absolutely nothing for russian working class but everything for sanctions against russia & a new nationalist, racist but pro-western neo-liberal order instead of the old, anti-western one
the only way to fight against nationalism in russia is to be a communist & against all sorts of liberalism (i'll never tire of saying that liberalism invites nationalism). but even communism is marred w nationalism there so one has to know the context to be able to stay on course
politics is not just responding to the hype. please start using your own head, researching vigorously, and placing any event in context of other events. using navalny’s case to prop him up as a folk hero is very dangerous: don’t lose the plot
and if you really really need to support a political prisoner, why not pay attention to julian assange? no western politicos speak for him, and yet the man who exposed numerous imperialist war crimes is now in a covid-infested jail, facing a death penalty. #FreeAssangeNOW
@MarkSleboda1 showed a very important link to add:
"I ask him if he regrets those videos now, he’s unapologetic. He sees it as a strength that he can speak to both liberals and nationalists." 1/2

https://t.co/Oc5luV2mP1
"But comparing migrants to cockroaches? “That was artistic license,” he says. So there’s nothing at all from those videos or that period that he regrets? “No,” he says again, firmly." 2/2

https://t.co/Oc5luV2mP1
a good addition from @IlyaBayona which explains the need to whitewash navalny's nationalism: he is entangled with the us government, here seen at a meeting with Bradford bell, 1st sec of us embassy (& that's grounds for legal persecution in any country)

https://t.co/RvYwIW8Iom
and this comment from his livejournal brought in by the valiant @ValLisitsa is for my darling queer friends who support navalny: seasoned with good ole antisemitism. btw, being queer myself i distinctly remember that his stance on same sex marriage is also "NO". what a cutie!
also from @ValLisitsa: navalny's views of industrial workers “we must publicly drive all engineers & designers through a rank of soldiers w gauntlets. then publicly whip all workers. a laborer gets 10 lashes, an assemblyman 15, a shop manager 20, etc”

https://t.co/g3jGOjdyci
thank you for your input @minininjalove: an international spin of navalny's politics where he smears Indigenous socialist president of Bolivia Evo Morales. those comparisons to juan guaido are not far from truth.

https://t.co/jM6wgJNUF0
my fave thing with this thread is that nationalists keep reposting it and saying "this is the navalny we have lost 😭"

The #RELAx trial has been published today in @JAMA. It was coordinated by Anna Algera. This thread is to explain the rationale, what we did, the findings and the meaning.
The rationale of #RELAx is based on the following

First, there is NO adequate evidence on the level of PEEP in non-ARDS patients. Most of the studies are old, conducted in post-surgical patients (short-term ventilation), and were not powered to detect differences in patient-centered

Second, despite the absence of evidence, the levels of PEEP used in non-ARDS patients increased over years, from 5 to 7/8 cmH2O, probably as a reflection of studies and practice in ARDS

Third, one IPDM showed that higher levels of PEEP could benefit more severe ARDS patients. However, opposite trends (higher mortality and longer ventilation) were found in mild ARDS with higher PEEP (despite not powered to be statistically

Fourth, most of the weaning protocols include PEEP ≤ 5 cmH2O as a criterion for readiness to wean. Theoretically, a standardized liberal strategy of higher PEEP could delay weaning in some

is ADHD a mental illness ?

a thread

ADHD is a neurodevelopmental disorder - people with it are born with it and it cannot be altered because it's part of their brain structure and is seen on brain scans. ADHD is also linked to premature births and hypothyroidism during pregnancy, among other things

from the WHO website: "neurodevelopmental disorders are disabilities in the functioning of the brain that can affect behaviour, memory and/or ability to learn."

neurodevelopmental disorders are not caused by external/environmental factors. you cannot *develop* these conditions

mental illness is a general term for a health problem that significantly affects how someone feels/thinks/behaves. mental illnesses cause suffering to those who experience them, as well as often their loved ones. ADHD does not directly cause suffering.

neurodevelopmental disorders are not mental illnesses. ADHD however, does make it more likely for a person to experience mental illness. ADHD can cause dysfunction and stress, but more often than not this comes from lack of accommodation rather than the symptoms themselves.

I think @SamAdlerBell in his quest to be the contrarian on Fauci gets several things wrong here. 1/


First, the failure last year actually was driven by the White House, the #Trump inner circle. Watch what's happening now, the US' scientific and public health infrastructure is creaking back to life. 2/

I think Sam underestimates the decimation of many of our health agencies over the past four years and the establishment of ideological control over them during the pandemic. 3/

I also am puzzled why Tony gets the blame for not speaking up, etc. Robert Redfield, Brett Giroir, Deb Birx, Jerome Adams, Alex Azar all could have done the same. 4/

Several of these people Bob Redfield, Brett Giroir, Alex Azar were led by craven ambition, Jerome Adams by cowardice, but I do think Deb Birx and Tony tried as institutionalists, insiders to make a difference. 5/

A staple of anti-lockdown conspiracism in yoga/wellness is that public health measures are oppressive, authoritarian, and stifling what it means to be human. Masks suppress identity and speech. Vaccines assault the sovereign body. Influencers must rise up against tyranny! /1

Ironically, pandemic management in economies where yoga/wellness is lucrative has been a neoliberal, choose-your-own-adventure mess in which centre-right governments barter with public health to enact a patchwork of half-measures that punish the poor and marginalized. /2

The goal is not universal health rights, or protecting medical systems, or saving as many lives as possible. The goal is to return to business-as-usual, using public health as a pit stop on a productivity race off a cliff. The ice caps aren’t melting fast enough, I guess. /3

Right-leaning governments, like influencers, have assessed the COVID threat with the magical bias of limitless optimism. Then they work to normalize COVID casualties as a new cost of doing business. *This* is what alt-healthers and Qamoms call “socialist”, or “communist”. /4

Centre-right governments and wellness influencers share a goal: get back to the optimism of making productivity heroic and consumption virtuous, without any reflection on structural issues of injustice, or what universal health care funding and standards would look like. /5

[THREAD: HISTORY OF THE HINDU TEMPLE]
1/102
Four hours south of Aswan in Lower Nubia, right by the Nile, is a region dotted with temple complexes built more than 3,000 years ago. Some like the temples of Amada, Derr, and Beit el-Wali go as far back as 1500 BC.


2/102
A little further south, not far from the border with Sudan, is another complex dedicated to Ramses II, Hathor, and Nefertari in the village of Ipsambul, better known locally as Abu Sunbul and internationally as Abu Simbel. These go back to the 13th century BC.


3/102
Djeser-Djeseru, also known as the mortuary temple of Hatshepsut in Upper Egypt also dates to 1400 BC. Over 500 years older is the nearby Mentuhotep II, also a mortuary temple. Both were dedicated to the cult of Amun Ra, besides their respective pharaohs.


4/102
Far older is the Ġgantija complex of Malta. Going as far back as 3600 BC, this one comprises of two temples entirely made of stone and enclosed in a stone wall. From the figures therein, it's understood to be a site of some kind of a fertility cult worship.


5/102
Dating from the same period are the limestone megaliths of Ħaġar Qim and Mnajdra, both said to have once hosted ritualistic sacrifices as part of the same fertility cult worship as found in the Ġgantija complex. Malta has some of the oldest temple complexes in Europe.

The RV and the Redemption Funds.

ALL Exchanged Currencies as well as all Zim Redemption funds will be placed in the accounts they set up in the Quantum Financial System./1

Absolutely none of these funds will be placed in a Bank at the redemption appointment. Bank computers cannot be programmed to transfer Digital Gold Certificates./2

The QFS can and will transplant funds into a bank account as has been explained earlier,/3

so a person can transfer funds to their own bank account but the desirability will become less and less as the banks go into receivership and their customer’s deposits are confiscated to avoid the Bank’s demise./4

Which bank can compete with the QFS when the QFS is free, secure, private, and stable? One of the major problems in the transition will be the use of Debit Cards for merchant purchases. Will VISA or Mastercard be available?/5
