The Most Fascist Things Donald Trump Has Done; A Thread PART TWO!

 (Part One: https://t.co/S89lHZfrXC)
("Fascism," explained roughly via tweet = racism + ultra-nationalism + sexism + attacks on human rights, the media, & unions + obsessions w/ national security & law & order + near-religious fervor for charismatic leader + cronyism + corruption + election fraud.)
23) Trump hires white supremacist Stephen Miller to write his immigration policies.
https://t.co/Mzy1TeCuLM
24) Trump hires white supremacist Steve Bannon as his 2016 campaign manager. https://t.co/r95t51GlN0
25) Trump hires neo-nazi Sebastian Gorka as an advisor.
https://t.co/D2oZGHtTcu
26) Trump insists that government officials stay at Trump hotels when travelling, giving “an appearance that the businesses are profiting from his occupying the presidency.”
https://t.co/GOCW4ZHw8b
27) By booking functions at the Trump Hotel five blocks from the White House, Trump is able to force the Secret Service to pay his business $200,000 to rent rooms. https://t.co/AIi2TQyleo
28) Trump tried to have a G7 conference hire at his own resort to host it. https://t.co/eBPFJ2clT4
29) In 2017, Trump hired his own daughter as a key advisor although he didn't know at the time what exactly she would be doing.
https://t.co/TRML3iNKGl
30) Trump hired his son-in-law Jared Kushner to be one of his top advisors. https://t.co/IpmXdULraS
31) Trump had ICE agents kidnap children from their parents, hold them in concentration camps, and then “lose track” of at least 1500 of them.
https://t.co/p8CL2LkV42
32) Trump then allows U.S. families to begin adopting children kidnapped by ICE w/out the knowledge or consent of their biological parents - something that closely matches one of the components of "genocide" as defined by the UN.
https://t.co/BCXjhgg3aQ
33) It took a court to force the Trump administration to provide children held in ICE concentration camps with toothbrushes, toothpastes, or soap.
https://t.co/wHTjRxv3Ck
34) The Trump administration refused to vaccinate children held in ICE concentration camps even after three died of influenza.
https://t.co/1U6jNKOq4a
35) Trump tried to deny basic citizenship rights to and actually deport native-born Americans who are Latino and live close to the Mexican border.
https://t.co/BWxf1Yjbp5
36) Trump ordered the Pentagon to stage a pointless, dictator-style military parade for himself. https://t.co/ofVGtUThf9
37) Trump decided that spending $13 billion to create a "space force" would be a good idea.
https://t.co/nDubxhcpN8
38) Trump declared his own inauguration day the "National Day of Patriotic Devotion."
https://t.co/y9tOnDWM7T
39) "I'm a nationalist, okay? Nationalist. Use that word. Use that word." - Donald Trump
https://t.co/LnzuQcrgac
40) In 2018, Trump moved to take away the legal rights and status of trans people, which would make them vulnerable to discrimination.
https://t.co/IvqbmcMIvm
41) Trump moved to subvert the 14th Amendment by revoking citizenship rights for people born in America to parents who weren't U.S. citizens.
https://t.co/5O9jYzkLke
42) Lashing back at four of his strongest critics in the House of Representatives who are also racialized women, Trump went with the old racist trope "go back to your country!"

A brief thread on Jovan Hutton Pulitzer, the crazy con man who is now claiming to have hacked into the Georgia voting machines in Fulton County. 90s kids and tech aficionados might remember Jovan as the inventor of the CueCat, the dumbest gadget of all time.

Also, for anyone who wants to claim that Jovan Hutton Pulitzer (not his given name, but one he changed legally after the CueCat debacle) invented QR Codes: he did not. Like that other right-wing crazy man who claimed to have invented email, Jovan didn’t invent QR Codes.

He did invent the CueCat, a product that somehow raised $185 million dollars for a tethered barcode scanner for magazines and newspapers, so you could get ads from your ads. As I said, the dumbest product of all time. Good backup barcode scanners after they were hacked, however

Oh, that’s another thing. When CueCat was a thing, its systems were hacked. I guess that’s what makes Jovan a security expert. His bankrupt company from 20 years ago was hacked and widely mocked. He’s a genius.

In recent years, Jovan pivoted to being a treasure hunter who was featured on and widely mocked on Curse of Oak Island, because the man is insane.

Some quick thoughts on Sam Gyimah's resignation after conversations with various Conservative MPs: 1) the chances of a second referendum are a lot higher than I thought:

2) At this point, if you are a young and ambitious Tory MP it is now so overwhelmingly in your interest to vote against the withdrawal agreement. V v hard to see how Julian Smith can cap rebellion at under 100:

3) Really just to reiterate 1) Gyimah is the kind of "No, never gonna rebel" vaguely pro-EU Tory you'd need to get on side to outweigh Labour Leavers and Real Concerners.

(THREAD) The main problem with that @DanDrezner piece in the Post is that it's an international politics prof writing about the field in which I'm a professor—communications. No one in communications would *ever* compare the blogosphere to either Twitter or Substack. Here's why.

1/ Back in the mid-aughts, I was a Koufax Award-nominated political blogger (I don't know what Drezner was doing then; I first heard of him about a year ago). So I was into the blogosphere pretty deep, as I also ran a second high-traffic blog that was focused on the art world.

2/ The "blogosphere" was an outgrowth of MySpace and LiveJournal, inasmuch as in the heady early days of the internet people suddenly realized that they could engage in private diaristic writing—a very specific subgenre of writing—in the public square, and it was suddenly "okay."

3/ So the blogosphere as such had *nothing* to do with journalism, which needless to say was in a different state just 15 years ago (note: unlike Drezner, I also teach writing and journalism at the university level, so this thread is squarely "in my area," unlike his Post piece).

4/ The blogosphere was a manifestation of the transformation of the public-private binary at the dawn of the internet—and *also* connected to the "creative writing" explosion (what I did a PhD on); in the aughts, creative writing was the fastest-growing discipline *in the world*.

The death of Alhaji Lateef Kayode Jakande brings to my mind the triumph of excellence in political leadership as well as rebellion against the political order.

A lot has been said about LKJ since he died yesterday and I hope only to contribute my perspective to enrich all said.

My emphasis with history has always been to draw out lessons relevant to the present, to show how trends repeat themselves and to show certain hypocritical contradictions within the present system.

Only few others qualify as well as LKJ to do all the three - I hope I do justice.

One area pundits have largely missed out in the Jakande story is the very beginning - both of his life and of his politics.

LKJ's parents were from Omu-Aran in present day Kwara State but he contributed more to Lagos than so many others - we will return to this subsequently.

LKJ was not originally a political ally of Awolowo - a number of elders were with Awo right from the very beginning but LKJ contributed politically to Awolowo at a crucial time of religious threat to the dominance of the Action Group (Awo's party) in the pre-Independence mid 50s.

A group had been formed in 1957 and named the National Muslim League headed by Alhaji R.A. Smith who had been very critical of Awolowo's AG as a Christian party and moved to align with the Northern People's Congress of Sir Ahmadu Bello.

The political threat to Awo was very real.

1/n

Moving averages
EMA and SMA
1. Exponential Moving Average (EMA) is similar to Simple Moving Average (SMA), measuring trend direction over a period of time.
2. However, whereas SMA simply calculates an average of price data, EMA applies more weight to data that is more current
2/


21 EMA : SHORT TERM TREND
1. Calculates the Average Price of past 21 days
2. A stock above 21 ema is in strong momentum , which will give pullbacks to 21 ema again and again.
3. Stock above 21 ema should never be shorted so as to stay with the trend
3/n

3. A stock which moves 10-15% above 21 ema will be too extended and hence will generally pullback
Stocks take dynamic support on 21 ema
4. You can Short only if its too extended like 15 to 20% from 21 ema ( Not advised )
#ADANIPOWER:
#pnbhousing
4/n


1. Whenever 21 ema is sloping upwards its called uptrend
2. Whenever 21 ema is sloping downwards its called dowtrend
3. Whenever 21 ema is sideways its called consolidation

⏬Sell in downtrend

SRI THIRUNARAYANA PERUMAL, MELKOTE (KAR)

Known as Dakshin Badri, Thiru Narayanapuram is one of the four famous Swayambu Kshetrams, the other three being Srirangam, Kanchipuram and Tirupati.
The presiding diety is Cheluva Narayana Swamy/ Selva Pillai/ Rama Priyan.


Once, Sri Rama gave his aradhana murthi of Sri Ranganatha, to Raja Vibhishana on his request. So he was left without a murthi for his daily pujas. Brahma is said to have provided the murti of Selva Pillai to Rama who later passed this on to his sons, Lava and Kusa.


When Kusa’s daughter married a Yadava prince, this murthi moved to the lunar dynasty from solar.

It is said that the utsav murthi got the name Selva Pillai due to Sri Ramanuja.
Once, a Sultan took away this murthi and Sri Ramanuja went in its search to the Sultan’s palace.

Did you know?

When Saudi Arabia's King visited India in 1955, PM Nehru ordered all the Hindu Temples and Idols of Hindu Deities that came in Saudi King's way to be covered up.
Our temples are the architectural marvels in their own league.


Each of our temples tells the story of our rich history and cultural heritage. Was Nehru that ashamed of his own nation's heritage that he had to cover them up or there was some other reason? The answer would be best known to him only.

PM Nehru invited the then Saudi King Saud bin Abdul Aziz to India who accepted the invitation and planned a 17 day long official visit to India in 1955. Saudi King had brought a large delegation with him and he had to visit various Indian cities like Mumbai, Hyderabad, Agra,


Aligarh, Shimla, Mysore and Varanasi. However, when Saudi King reached Varanasi, Nehru ordered to cover all the temples and Idols with curtains that came in the way of the Royal Convoy. During his stay in Varanasi, Govt buildings were painted with the words "Kalma Tayyiba".


'Kalma Tayyiba' means 'There is not God but only Allah and Mohammed is his messenger'. In addition to it, Pooja and Aartis were also stopped at temples. I can call it the appeasement politics of the highest order and Nehru was indeed the greatest appeaser of all times.

Following @BAUDEGS I have experienced hateful and propagandist tweets time after time. I have been shocked that an academic community would be so reckless with their publications. So I did some research.
The question is:
Is this an official account for Bahcesehir Uni (Bau)?


Bahcesehir Uni, BAU has an official website https://t.co/ztzX6uj34V which links to their social media, leading to their Twitter account @Bahcesehir

BAU’s official Twitter account


BAU has many departments, which all have separate accounts. Nowhere among them did I find @BAUDEGS
