America passes a dubious COVID-19 milestone with little fanfare, while China locks down its cities. Plus, a sobering statistic about the devastation in Mariupol, a rant against the populist tendency to decry the ‘overeducated,’ and more

The United States surpasses one million dead from COVID-19 - A shameful age. America’s response to the COVID-19 pandemic is the single biggest failure in its entire history. Americans shrug their shoulders and say they are ‘done with COVID.’ The speed of collapse is accelerating at a terrifying pace. (NBC News 5/04)

Beijing closes dozens of subway stations as COVID precaution, even though the number of known cases in the city of 21.5 million is only 51 people - Just another reminder to all Americans who spent the past two years whining non-stop about masks, lockdowns, and vaccines that they didn’t have it so tough.

Russian forces have killed (at least) twice as many residents of Mariupol in two months than the Nazis did during two years of occupation in World War II - Excerpt: ‘The occupiers brought at least 13 mobile crematoria there to hide their crimes in Mariupol. Also, satellite images have already revealed three places of mass burial near Mariupol. The scale of the trenches is appalling.’ (Ukraine 24 5/05)

GOP House member from the Land of Stupid (Florida) slams abortion rights advocates as ‘overeducated’ - Memo to sleazy, creepy Rep. Matt Gaetz, and to every idiot populist in #Murica (which is most of the country): There is not any such thing as being ‘overeducated,’ and it is shameful that a U.S. congressman would denigrate learning and enlightenment in this manner. Although it’s nothing new, particularly in Southern states. From Huey Long, to George Wallace, to today’s crop of populist stooges, there will always be money to be made in #Murica by appealing to the resentments of the common folk. Puting all else aside about the creep, his use of the word ‘overeducated’ alone should disqualify Rep. Gaetz from serving in Congress or any other capacity. Instead, and in spite of his legal troubles, his political fortunes have likely /received yet another boost from adoring #Muricans. This is today’s GOP, taking full advantage of the fact that modern Americans are more petulant and prideful than at any point in the nation’s history. (The Independent 5/04)

Former cast member of ‘Toddlers and Tiaras’ and unwitting star of idiotic social media memes commits suicide at age 16 - I remember the controversy over this ‘reality TV’ program. Borderline pedophilia, but the vast majority of the American people swooned and said, ‘how adorable,’ as ‘Toddlers and Tiaras’ became a cultural phenomenon. In many cases, it was the very same people who believe any conspiracy theory they hear and routinely brand political enemies as Satan-worshiping child molesters. Then this little girl - without her consent - became the face of a million Internet memes. Maybe it is time that all of you who love memes, and especially memes featuring children being ‘cute,’ reconsider. Having a laugh at others’ expense is not harmless behavior, and individuals in this rotten world should not exist solely for the entertainment and amusement of the masses. That is exactly what Americans did to this young lady; they reduced her entire being to an ‘aww, isn’t this cute’ meme. Furthermore, this girl’s parents got exactly what they deserved, and I’m thrilled they are now suffering. I applaud Kailia Posey for telling her horrifically evil parents and American society-at-large to all go f**k themselves. May she rest in peace. (BNO News 5/04)
