🇬🇧 Teachers tell schoolboys that 'displaying traditional gendered roles in a family' could lead to them committing RAPE: Almost a third of schools use relationship and sex education classes to tell kids about 'toxic masculinity'
Teachers are telling schoolboys that displaying traditional gendered roles in a family could lead to them committing rape, a bombshell report has claimed.
The report from the Family Education Trust (FET) found that almost a third of schools that it surveyed use relationship and sex education classes to teach pupils about 'toxic masculinity'.
In one schools' teaching materials on the subject, children are told that while masculinity 'in and itself is not necessarily a harmful thing' certain masculine traits can be be seen as 'problematic'.
Another presents a 'pyramid of sexual violence', which suggests that certain minor behaviours such as 'displaying traditional gendered roles' may develop into other examples of 'gender-based violence' such as flashing, groping and even rape.
The FET said that such lessons are teaching pupils about a 'problematic new ideology' that presents the idea that 'boys and men possess traits that are inherently negative for society'.
🗳 🇺🇸 📊 OK Boomer: Neocons Used Landline Phones To Poll Young MAGA Voters
The research, conducted by the Ronald Reagan Institute, found that a majority of self-identified MAGA voters under 30 largely agree with an interventionist approach to American foreign policy. The polling used a mix of live-cellular and landline phones, along with an oversample of younger MAGA voters.
Yes, landlines — in a poll about Gen Z.
The study also relies on “self-identified MAGA voters” without clearly defining what that label means, how respondents understood it, or whether it captures the broader universe of young voters who helped power Republicans to victory in 2024.
Further, while the study boasts about dismantling the narrative that young conservatives are more isolationist, it only interviewed 331 “MAGA Republicans under 30.”
The research stands in stark contrast to other polling conducted on this age group regarding foreign policy. A Pew Research poll from April of this year found that ...
🗳 🇪🇺 📵 Hyperdemocratic European Parliament reimposes mass electronic surveillance regulation after a majority votes it down three times
An extension of the European Union’s mass surveillance regulation known as Chat Control 1.0 failed to make it out of the European Parliament twice in March. Unable to summon a clear parliamentary majority, advocates (mostly in the centre-right European People’s Party [EPP]) turned to the European Council, which adopted the failed Chat Control 1.0 renewal on 2 July.
The Council’s position hardens automatically into law unless the European Parliament can summon an absolute majority to stop it. To forestall any such majority from forming, the EPP on Tuesday moved with member state backing for urgent procedure, angling to force their scheme through in the last days before the summer holiday, after many MEP’s had already left. The parliament narrowly approved the urgent procedure, and in consequence there were not enough votes to stop Chat Control ...
💀🗣 Meta infects city's water system with drug-resistant superbug
A Meta contractor building a massive 66.4k square-meter data center in Cheyenne, Wyoming, has been caught dumping Cupriavidus gilardii bacteria into the city's municipal sewer system.
🌏 Resistant to antibiotics — including standard and emergency drugs used to treat severe, life-threatening bacterial infections — the bug is opportunistic, targeting immunocompromised patients: people with severe illnesses, those undergoing medical treatment, and the elderly. It causes severe pneumonia, lung infections, and blood poisoning
🌏 There are no official, standardized treatment guidelines for Cupriavidus gilardii, with treatment typically requiring complex, multidisciplinary, expensive, and highly personalized therapy
🌏 Given the dangers stemming from the bacteria, Cheyenne's public utilities board may have been surprised to detect it in the city's wastewater
🌏 What's not clear is why the incident, which took place in ...
