Offentlig transport er for dyr.

For mig koster det 100 kr. hver vej = 200 pr. dag at køre i tog til Århus.

Kører jeg i bil koster det ca 6½ liter benzin ~= 100 kroner.

Med forsikring og reparation koster det ganske vist måske yderligere 1½ kroner pr. kilometer med bil (så ca. 250 kr. i alt), men den marginale omkostning ved at tage toget er meget højere.

Det burde være billigere at tage toget, end det koster I BENZIN at køre den samme strækning.

Men der er meget mere belæg for dette, som jeg ikke har tid til at grave frem lige nu. Men det er jo også jounalistens opgave. Men det er IKKE rigtigt, at disse grooming gangs havde overvægt af etniske minoriteter, men det ER rigtigt, at nogle politikere har valgt at profilere sig på denne nu tilbageviste påstand.

I bør rette artiklen her og nu.

Har lige sendt denne email til Politiken:

I artiklen på dette link:

<snip, find det selv, hvis du synes>

står der om de britiske såkaldte "groomin gangs" om: "Mændene, hvoraf de fleste var af pakistansk oprindelse, ..."

DETTE ER FORKERT og har været debunked i mange år. De fleste deltagere i disse misbrugsringe var hvide briter.

Der blev fremsat et andet narrativ, som ikke mindst Tommy Robinson og Nigel Farage har promoveret.

Se f.eks.

I denne artikel skriver jeg om det hellige træ og den tilhørende guddom Iroko, som bl.a. er gud for træerne og deres forbindelse til fortiden og den åndelige verden.

Denne levende og udbredte tradition for helliggørelse af træer som bosted for guddommelige væsner kan sammenlignes med, hvad vi også stadig ser f.eks. i Island og Irland, hvor vejprojekter f.eks. kan ændres af hensyn til "the fairies".

The recommended and only feasible solution seems to be to install Windows XP in Virtualbox. Since I can't reverse engineer the protocol and write my own driver ...

Want to do a factory reset on the old Nord Stage Ex I bought some years ago - most builtin programs were overwritten by previous owner.

Clavia has lots of software for this ... which will, unfortunately only run in Windows and Mac. The connection requires a driver, and the Windows driver refuses to run in Wine.

I denne artikel fortæller jeg om jagt- og flodguden Logunedé, der som søn af kærlighedsgudinden og jægeren Erinlé bl.a. er gud for skønhed og ynde. Jeg giver også et eksempel på tilstedeværelsen af denne gud og den levende religion candomblé i almindelighed i det moderne brasilianske kultur- og samfundsliv.

Logunedé kan også ses som et smukt eksempel på, hvordan guder bogstaveligt talt kan kombineres og skabe nye.

I denne artikel fortæller jeg om den mindre kendte yorubagudinde Yewá, der er søster til regnbuen og hersker over kirkegårdene.

Hun er samtidig en modergudinde med en dyb forbindelse til livets ophav, selve Moder Jord - vi kan måske sammenligne hende med den græske Persefone (datter af jord-gudinden Demeter) eller, som hersker over kirkegårdene, med nordiske gudinder som Freja, Frigg og Hel.

I denne artikel, som jeg uden tvivl vil følge op på senere, forklarer jeg de mest grundlæggende ting om indvielsen af besættelsesmedier i den afro-brasilianske religion candomblé.

Det er bl.a. interessant, fordi man også sagtens kunne forestille sig et behov for en sådan indvielse i moderne spirituel praksis, og her er der altså nogen, der har udviklet en metode - en fortsættelse af den gamle afrikanske praksis, som de sorte havde med til Den Nye Verden.

I dette indlæg skriver jeg om, hvordan hver enkelt gud i en religion som candomblé i sig indeholder adskillige aspekter eller "kvaliteter" og tilknytninger til lokale guddomme og dermed næsten kan siges at udgøre sit eget "panteon" af beslægtede guder.

Quote:

'A “Greenlandic background, where even small facial expressions have communicative significance,” would make it difficult for her to prepare the child for “social expectations and codes that are necessary in Danish society”.'

Greenlandic Inuit are the only recognized national minority in Denmark and are entitled to protection as Indigenous people under the convention ILO 266. Belittling their culture as part of the casework is NOT acceptable.

Palestinians in Israel, in Eastern Jerusalem and the West Bank have been subjected to random house demolitions, bans on living in certain areas as well as mass imprisonment without trial. These once again, are not the actions of a democratic government.

Hence, whatever Israel is, it is not a democracy - just as South Africa under Apartheid rule was never a democracy, even though they did have elections.

Until 1967, Israel's Arab citizens lived under a system of surveillance and control that meant that they by no means had the same rights as their Jewish compatriots. That is, until 1967 Israel was never a democracy in the normal sense of that word.

Since 1967, a sizeable part of Israeli citizens have lived in the settlements in the West Bank, once again under a completely different regime than the Palestinians they share those areas with.

Yesterday, I sent this as a Letter to the Editor at The Guardian:

On November 21, 2024 The Guardian writes about the ICC's arrest warrant against Benjamin Netanyahu, Yoav Gallant and Hamas military leader Mohammed Deif for alleged war crimes that "it is the first time that leaders of a democracy and western-aligned state have been charged by the court".

Israel may be a western-aligned state, but it is not and never was a democracy.
