2024.05.18 23:04 Theo-Dorable Ideologies (and their descriptions)

A list of all the ideologies (within the game files), including their descriptions. Enjoy.

Conservatism

Conservatism is a political and social philosophy promoting traditional social institutions in the context of culture and civilization. The central tenets of conservatism include tradition, human imperfection, organic society, hierarchy and authority, and property rights. Conservatives seek to preserve a range of institutions such as monarchy, religion, parliamentary government, and property rights, with the aim of emphasizing social stability and continuity.
National Conservatism National conservatism is a variant of conservatism that concentrates more on national interests and upholding cultural or ethnic identity than most other conservatives. In Europe, national conservatives are usually Eurosceptics.
Gaullism
Gaullism is a French political stance based on the thought and action of World War II French Resistance leader General Charles de Gaulle, who would become the founding President of the Fifth French Republic.
Corporatism I do not know where the description for this is. Considering corporatism doesn't exactly fit within conservatism I believe this is a mistake, but I'm including it here anyway.
Republican Party [sic]
The Republican Party is one of the two major political parties in the United States, the other being its historic rival, the Democratic Party. The party is named after republicanism, a major ideology of the American Revolution. Founded by anti-slavery activists, economic modernizers, ex-National Republicans, ex-Free Soilers and Whigs in 1854, the Republicans largely dominated politics nationally and in the majority of northern states between 1860 and 1932.
Religious Zionism Formed as a nationalist opposition and acts as the basis of the Israeli right, Revisionist Zionism envisions territorial integrity over the historical Land of Israel and supports Jewish nationalism. Revisionist Zionists believed that Jews have sovereignty over both banks of the Jordan river and its followers question the legitimacy of the Kingdom of Jordan. Currently, Revisionist Zionism is regarded as a fringe ideology but its proponents have recently began a push to make the ideology more moderate and hence more electable.
Black Conservatism Black Conservatism is a type of conservative ideology popular among Africans in both hemispheres. Individuals which would promote black conservatism would likely be advocates of free market capitalism, promotion of traditional beliefs (generally in regards to Catholic and Protestant Christianity), and Patriotism or Jingoism. Black Conservatism generally is opposed to Pan-Africanism, Socialism, and Anti-Imperialism.

Liberal Conservatism

Liberal conservatism combines conservative policies with liberal stances, especially on economic, social and ethical issues. It incorporates the classical liberal view of minimal government intervention in the economy, according to which individuals should be free to participate in the market and generate wealth without government interference. However, individuals cannot be thoroughly depended on to act responsibly in other spheres of life, therefore liberal conservatives believe that a strong state is necessary to ensure law and order and social institutions are needed to nurture a sense of duty and responsibility to the nation. They also support civil liberties, along with some social conservative positions.
Conservative Liberalism Conservative liberalism is a variant of liberalism, combining liberal values and policies with conservative stances, or simply representing the right-wing of the liberal movement. It is a more positive and less radical variant of classical liberalism.

Christian Democracy

Christian democracy is a form of conservatism and a political ideology which emerged in 19th century Europe under the influence of Catholic social teaching, as well as Neo Calvinism. It was originally conceived as a combination of traditional Catholic beliefs and modern democratic ideas, and it grew to incorporate the social teaching of other Christian denominations, such as the Lutheran Church and the Reformed Church.
Vatican [sic]
The politics of Vatican City take place in a framework of an theocratic absolute elective monarchy, in which the Pope, religiously speaking, the leader of the Roman Catholic Church and Bishop of Rome, exercises ex officio supreme legislative, executive, and judicial power over the Vatican City, a rare case of non-hereditary monarchy.

Socialism

Socialism is a range of economic and social systems characterized by social ownership and workers' self-management of the means of production as well as the political theories and movements associated with them. Social ownership may refer to forms of public, collective or cooperative ownership, or to citizen ownership of equity. There are many varieties of socialism and there is no single definition encapsulating all of them, though social ownership is the common element shared by its various forms. Socialist economic systems can be divided into non-market and market forms. Non-market socialism involves the substitution of factor markets and money, with engineering and technical criteria, based on calculation performed in-kind, thereby producing an economic mechanism that functions according to different economic laws from those of capitalism. Non-market socialism aims to circumvent the inefficiencies and crises traditionally associated with capital accumulation and the profit system. By contrast, market socialism retains the use of monetary prices, factor markets and in some cases the profit motive, with respect to the operation of socially owned enterprises and the allocation of capital goods between them. Profits generated by these firms would be controlled directly by the workforce of each firm, or accrue to society at large in the form of a social dividend. The socialist calculation debate discusses the feasibility and methods of resource allocation for a socialist system.
Democratic Socialism Democratic socialism is a political philosophy that advocates political democracy alongside social ownership of the means of production, with an emphasis on self-management and democratic management of economic institutions within a market or some form of decentralized planned socialist economy.
Market Socialism Market socialism is a type of economic system involving the public, cooperative, or social ownership of the means of production in the framework of a market economy.
Royal Socialism No information in the game files. Probably a scrapped ideology, but still here for showcase purposes.
Neocommunism Ditto to above.
African Socialism African socialism is a belief in sharing economic resources in a traditional African way, as distinct from classical socialism. Common principles of African socialism are social development guided by a large public sector, incorporating the African identity and what it means to be African, and the avoidance of the development of social classes within society.
Ujamaa The Swahili word Ujamaa means 'extended family', 'brotherhood' or 'socialism'; as a political concept it asserts that a person becomes a person through the people or community. Ujamaa was a term made popular by the political philosophy applied under Julius Nyerere's social and economic development policies in Tanzania after it gained independence from Britain in 1961.
Labor Zionism (Mapai) Labor Zionism is the left-wing of the Zionist movement. For many years, it was the most significant tendency among Zionists and Zionist organizations. It saw itself as the Zionist sector of the historic Jewish labor movements of Eastern and Central Europe, eventually developing local units in most countries with sizable Jewish populations. Labor Zionists believe that a Jewish state could only be created through the efforts of the Jewish working class settling in the Land of Israel and constructing a state through the creation of a progressive Jewish society with rural kibbutzim and moshavim and an urban Jewish proletariat.
Kemalism Kemalism is the founding ideology of the Republic of Turkey. Kemalism, as it was implemented by Mustafa Kemal Atatürk, was defined by sweeping political, social, cultural and religious reforms designed to separate the new Turkish state from its Ottoman predecessor and embrace a Westernized way of living, including the establishment of democracy, secularism, state support of the sciences and free education.
Oriental Personalism Oriental Personalism is the official ideology of Ngo Dinh Diem's Can-Lao Party in South Vietnam. Owing as much to the influence of his brother, Ngo Dinh Nhu as Diem himself, Oriental Personalism has diverse ideological influences, including Emannuel Mournier's theory of Personalism, Marxism, and the folk traditions and religions of Vietnam. The Can-Lao manifest calls for the gradual transformation of Vietnamese society through two phase. In the first phase, the Personalist Revolution, the Social and Working Classes will tear their divisions and join as one. Then comes the Social Revolution, where all forms of capitalism and colonial influence will be swept out on a triumphant march to a utopian, socialist, and proudly Vietnamese society.

Social Democracy

Social Democracy is a political, social and economic ideology that supports economic and social interventions to promote social justice within the framework of a capitalist economy, as well as a policy regime involving a commitment to representative democracy, measures for income redistribution, and regulation of the economy in the general interest and welfare state provisions.
Democratic Party [sic]
The Democratic Party is one of the two major contemporary political parties in the United States, along with the Republican Party. Tracing its heritage back to Thomas Jefferson and James Madison's Democratic-Republican Party, the modern-day Democratic Party was founded around 1828 by supporters of Andrew Jackson, making it the world's oldest active political party.
Labor Zionism Functionally the exact same as Labor Zionism (Mapai), with the same description. I have no clue why it's divided as such.

Social Liberalism

Social liberalism is a political ideology that believes individual liberty requires a level of social justice. Like classical liberalism, social liberalism endorses a market economy and the expansion of civil and political rights and liberties, but differs in that it believes the legitimate role of the government includes addressing economic and social issues such as poverty, health care, and education.

Progressivism

Progressivism is the support for or advocacy of improvement of society by reform. As a philosophy, it is based on the idea of progress, which asserts that advancements in science, technology, economic development and social organization are vital to the improvement of the human condition.
Green politics Green politics is a political ideology that aims to create an ecologically sustainable society rooted in environmentalism, nonviolence, social justice and grassroots democracy.

Centrism

Centrism is a political outlook or specific position that involves acceptance or support of a balance of a degree of social equality and a degree of social hierarchy, while opposing political changes which would result in a significant shift of society either strongly to the left or the right.

Classical Liberalism

Democracy (yes, that is the entire description)
Libertarianism Libertarianism is a collection of political philosophies and movements that uphold liberty as a core principle. Libertarians seek to maximize political freedom and autonomy, emphasizing freedom of choice, voluntary association, and individual judgment. Libertarians share a skepticism of authority and state power, but they diverge on the scope of their opposition to existing political and economic systems.
Zionism (General Zionism) Many people and parties chose not to follow any of the distinct Zionist schools of thought and chose to stick to the core ideology of Zionism, settling in Israel and the establishment of the Jewish State. Many of the parties that stick to the 'core' of Zionism are centrist parties that don't associate themselves with either the left nor the right and tend to be economically liberal.

Marxism-Leninism

Marxism-Leninism is the ideology combining Marxist socioeconomic theory and Leninist political praxis, which is the official ideology of the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics and of the Communist International. The purpose of Marxism-Leninism is the revolutionary development of a capitalist state into a socialist state, effected by the leadership of a vanguard party of professional revolutionaries from the working class.
Liberal Communism I can find no reference. I presume this refers to the like of Gorbachev.
Stalinism Stalinism is the means of governing and related policies implemented from around 1927 to 1953 by Joseph Stalin. Stalinist policies and ideas as developed in the Soviet Union included rapid industrialization, the theory of socialism in one country, a totalitarian state, collectivization of agriculture, a cult of personality and subordination of the interests of foreign communist parties to those of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union, deemed by Stalinism to be the leading vanguard party of communist revolution at the time.
Juche Juche is the official state ideology of North Korea, described by the government as Kim Il-sung's original, brilliant and revolutionary contribution to national and international thought. It postulates that the Korean masses are to act as the masters of the revolution and construction and that by becoming self-reliant and strong a nation can achieve true socialism.
Ho Chi Minh Thought Ho Chi Minh Thought is the official ideology of the Communist Party of Vietnam under the leadership of Chairman Ho Chi Minh. Though firmly Marxist-Leninist, Ho believes in a more nationalistic reintepretation of Marxism for the unique conditions of the Vietnamese revolution, even taking some influence from Sun Yat-Sen's "Three Principles of the People" and the American revolutionaries. Ho Chi Minh Thought is as proudly Vietnamese as it is Communist, and calls for a "national democratic revolution" -- a truly Vietnamese path to socialism where worker, peasant, soldier, and merchant will unite against inequality and imperialism in all its forms.

Revolutionary Socialism

Revolutionary socialism is the socialist doctrine that social revolution is necessary in order to bring about structural changes to society. More specifically, it is the view that revolution is a necessary precondition for a transition from capitalism to socialism.
Revolutionary Islamic Socialism Your guess is as good as mine.
Trotskyism Trotskyism is the theory of Marxism as advocated by Russian Leon Trotsky. Trotsky identified as an orthodox Marxist and Bolshevik-Leninist. He supported founding a vanguard party of the proletariat, proletarian internationalism and a dictatorship of the proletariat based on working class self-emancipation and mass democracy.
Sartre Thought No description given.
Anarcho-Communism Anarcho-communism is a theory of anarchism which advocates the abolition of the state, capitalism, wage labor and private property in favor of common ownership of the means of production, direct democracy and a horizontal network of workers' councils with production and consumption based on the guiding principle: From each according to his ability, to each according to his needs.
Posadism No description. Another relic.
Titoism Titoism is described as the post-World War II policies and practices associated with Josip Broz Tito during the Cold War, characterized by an opposition to the Soviet Union. It usually represents Tito's Yugoslav doctrine in Cold War international politics. It emerged with the Yugoslav Partisans' liberation of Yugoslavia independently of the Red Army, resulting in Yugoslavia being the only Eastern European country to remain socialist, but independent after World War II as well as resisting Soviet Union pressure to become a member of the Warsaw Pact.
Left-wing Military Dictatorship a Left-wing Military Dictatorship is a government which may espouse specific socialistic beliefs to gain second world support, but is however a military-controlled oppressive autocratic state. [sic]
Person Dignity Theory (Nhuism) Person Dignity Theory, also known as Spiritualistic Marxism, describes the more radical worldview of Ngo Dinh Nhu. Influenced by his involvment with French syndicalism in the 1930s and the left-wing nationalism of the Viet Minh, Nhu's views are significantly to the left of his older brother. Nhu's interpretation of \"True Marxism\" calls for a total centralization of state power in the Can Lao Party and the complete destruction of traditional society in favor of the strict regimentation of the peasants in collectivist \"Strategic Hamlets\" and the city dwellers through \"Urban Revolutionary Syndicates\". Some believe Nhu's ambitions may lie beyond Vietnam, given his calls for a worldwide crusade against \"Materialistic Capitalism\". [sic]

Maoism (Mao Zedong Thought)

Actually clumps together "anti-revisionist" ideologies, but for our purposes we'll start with Mao Zedong Thought.
Mao Zedong thought is the product of the combination of the basic principles of Marxism Leninism and the specific reality of the Chinese revolution. It is the crystallization of the collective wisdom of the Chinese Communists. It is a political, military and development theory advocated by Mao Zedong and widely practiced in the Chinese revolution in the 20th century. It is generally considered to be the development of Marxism Leninism in China.
Anti-Revisionism A Marxist-Leninist position emerging after the XXth Congress of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union. Anti-revisionist movements oppose the reforms of the Khrushchev period and uphold Stalinist and Maoist developments in Marxism.
Marxism-Leninism-Maoism The synthesis of Marxism–Leninism–Maoism did not occur during the life of Mao Zedong. From the 1960s, groups that called themselves Maoist or which upheld Maoism were not unified around a common understanding of Maoism and had instead their own particular interpretations of the political, philosophical, economical and military works of Mao; these disorganized ideological trends comprised, and still comprise, Mao Zedong Thought.
Scientific Socialism Scientific Socialism was founded by Friedrich Engels and Karl Marx, but was widely used by Deng Xiaoping of the PRC to reform Maoism. It is often Maoism, but with a few reforms that add more emphasis on science, industrialization, and overall a new focus on the economy.
Hoxhaism Hoxhaism is a variant of anti-revisionist Marxism-Leninism that developed in the late 1970s due to a split in the Maoist movement, appearing after the ideological dispute between the Communist Party of China and the Party of Labor of Albania. The ideology is named after Enver Hoxha, a notable Albanian communist leader.
Guevarism Guevarism is a theory of communist revolution and a military strategy of guerrilla warfare associated with communist revolutionary Ernesto \"Che\" Guevara. The ideology promotes exporting revolution to any country whose leader is supported by the empire (United States) and has fallen out of favor with its citizens. The ideology has three main points, namely that the people can win with proper organization against a nation's army; that the conditions that make a revolution possible can be put in place by the popular forces; and that the popular forces always have an advantage in a non urban setting. [sic]

Neo-Nazism Neo-Nazism consists of post-World War II militant, social or political movements seeking to revive the ideology of Nazism. It borrows elements from Nazi doctrine, including ultranationalism, racism up to xenophobia, ableism, homophobia, anti-Romanyism, antisemitism, anti-communism and initiating the Fourth Reich. Holocaust denial is a common feature, as is the incorporation of Nazi symbols and admiration of Adolf Hitler.
National Bolshevism National Bolshevism is a political movement that combines elements of nationalism and Bolshevism.
Baathism Baathism is an Arab nationalist ideology that promotes the development and creation of a unified Arab state through the leadership of a vanguard party over a progressive revolutionary government.
Ku Klux Klan The Ku Klux Klan is an American white supremacist hate group. The Klan has existed in three distinct eras at different points in time during the history of the United States.

2024.05.18 22:54 Sea-Illustrator1427 Struggling to attend school and being teased due to emetophobia, any advice appreciated :(

Since it’s my first time posting here I’m not familiar with all the censorship of certain words, so I can’t use them. TW uncensored !!
Also English is not my first language, so excuse my grammar.
I don’t even know where to start, but recently I’ve started to purposefully skip school or pretend I’m sick, I just can’t anymore. Even if I go I can’t focus at all. So the issue is my classmates, most of them aren’t aware that I’m emetophobic, or at least they weren’t.
I guess most of them have come to the age where they start drinking and that sort of stuff, I remember before it was only a few that did and it wasn’t really spoken about other than some rumours. But now it’s literally all they speak about, my friends included. Who’s hosting, who’s bringing what, and the worst of it all when they start showing me videos and speaking about what happened. Every Monday I have to hear them laugh and show each other videos from the weekend, and it’s usually of them doing something stupid or vomiting. I want to cry, they play it on full volume during the breaks and I’m just in constant fear, and the worst is it’s even some of my own friends who knows I have emetophobia, started to talk about it in front of me, I just feel so betrayed. I also remember that one time they connected their phone to the whiteboard and showed a video of one of my classmates barfing on another one. And they were just laughing. And I just sit there trying to not cry.
I don’t really have that many friends from beforehand, but I just feel so distant from the ones I had. I just can’t relate to them, and I just sit there, I’m so envious of everyone that can just laugh at it.
And one day I just had a panic attack in class, the guy sitting in front of me talked about this guy that puked in his bed while he was hosting. And the whole clean up, and I don’t know I just started crying and ran out, and then my friend explained that I had emetophobia, and she told me he laughed about it afterwards. I absolutely don’t want people to know about my diagnosis, I have told her this. There is a guy that really dislikes me for some reason and I dunno but he knows my friend and she told me he said that he was going to eat some bananas and drink sprite, and then vomit on me😭 and I just feel so unsafe near him even if it was just an empty treat or whatever. But last week during a buss ride I clearly remember him loudly stating “I’m so fucking nauseas” and “I’m gonna vomit” until I was sitting there crying, and I could hear him laugh. Everyone knows I have emetophobia now and while some people are understanding, I have folks going around speaking about how I’m seeking attention and overreaching, that were not children anymore, like aren’t you 15 🤯, or literally straight up trying to trigger me by pretending to vomit. I hate it so much. And someone literally coming up to me during a panic attack and making fun out of me while pretending to comfort me. I just feel so ashamed. Like my fear I just some sort of entertainment. And non of the teachers even care at all :( I just miss how everything was before, I feel like I’m missing out on so much and this fear is stopping me from living a somewhat normal life, I’m just scared for whenever someone finds out, even my own dad laughed at me when I was panicking.
I don’t know I just want to leave, next year I’m planning to attend another school in another city, and I’ll have better treatment options there (currently living on the countryside 😔) I have been through friking 4 therapists already, I’m just so tired from everything. I just can’t bring myself to go to school, I’m sorry for this practically being a compilation of me complaining and feeling sad for myself (and the structure), but whatever I just needed someone to tell I guess. And any advice for what I should do when I transfer? Should I try and be open about it or?

2024.05.18 22:29 Tesa_Tesanovic1988 Unlocking FDI potential in growth markets with RWA tokenization

Unlocking FDI potential in growth markets with RWA tokenization
Foreign direct investment (FDI) is a driving force behind economic growth. Four experts in the field – Henrik von Scheel, Paul Lalovich, Emilija Vukovic, and Tesha Teshanovich – outline how the innovative concepts of FDI-as-a-service and real world asset (RWA) tokenization can help growth markets beef up their FDI attractiveness.
The primary objective of FDI is to secure capital for investment. When conducive conditions are in place, FDI has the potential to foster job creation and sustainable development by enhancing an economy's productive capacity.
Still, regulatory hurdles, political instability, currency fluctuations, economic uncertainties, infrastructure limitations, cultural differences, and legal issues often hinder this goal.
https://preview.redd.it/a4vajp7uv81d1.jpg?width=900&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=cb84d502fc0753f00532cff2fdbbac0fbe57ecb4
Overcoming the obstacles of FDI requires innovative solutions that address the needs of investors, companies, and regulators. By engaging with local suppliers and forming partnerships with domestic businesses, foreign-owned companies can create additional benefits for the host economy, such as productivity spillovers through various channels.
According to FDI Markets, companies worldwide announced over $1.33 trillion worth of greenfield foreign direct investment in 2023, marking an increase of nearly 4% from the previous year.

The growth markets opportunity

We consider growth markets among the most undervalued asset classes worldwide, characterized by strong and improving earnings growth and financial metrics such as return on equity, free cash flow yield, and dividend yield. These markets benefit from an economic growth advantage over developed ones, with growth rates in emerging economies outpacing those in developed markets.
This growth trend is not solely reliant on China; other factors contribute, resulting in an upward trajectory for economic growth in growth markets while growth in developed markets decelerates. Globally, growth economies have typically rebounded from the global financial crisis faster than more advanced economies. Consequently, it's unsurprising that companies in developed nations are increasingly seeking avenues to expand their presence abroad.
This quest for new growth opportunities has brought attention to foreign direct investment policies worldwide, offering a promising outlook for investors.
According to the research conducted by Kearney, findings indicate a strong sense of investor optimism, with the potential for further growth over the next three years. A high percentage of respondents stated their intentions to boost their foreign direct investment in the coming years, and most expressed the view that FDI would play a more critical role in enhancing their corporate profitability and competitiveness over the next three years.
The realization of FDI advantages also hinges on the purpose behind the investment. Without responsible business practices and thorough research, FDI may lead to unintended consequences for the recipient nation. The presence of foreign multinational corporations can occasionally spark concerns regarding their potential social and environmental implications, particularly concerning the erosion of labor standards and their involvement in the unsustainable exploitation of natural resources.

Bringing FDI in

Challenges facing foreign direct investment include navigating complex regulatory frameworks, cultural differences, and political instability in some regions.
Developing countries encounter significant hurdles in attracting foreign direct investment, hindering their ability to fully capitalize on the associated benefits. In the past, developing countries have struggled to attract consistent foreign direct investment that could serve as a steady catalyst for economic growth, especially in sectors beyond oil and gas.
Additionally, foreign investors have shown restrained interest due to concerns regarding regulatory and political risks and shortcomings in economic fundamentals such as infrastructure and human capital. Investors in developed nations, where most private capital is concentrated, might lack familiarity with growth markets and developing economies. Consequently, the perceived risks associated with conducting business beyond their accustomed environment could lead to higher risk premiums.
This, in turn, has the potential to render projects non-bankable or non-viable for investors. However, developing nations should remain focused on enhancing the enabling environment. By doing so, they can attract greater private investment and ensure that these investments yield optimal outcomes and returns.
This, in turn, fosters a cycle of increased investment. To stimulate increased FDI in developing countries, mechanisms for de-risking are essential. De-risking involves reallocating, sharing, or mitigating the existing or potential risks linked to the investment.
In contrast, financial de-risking utilizes financial strategies to mitigate or diminish the risks linked with projects. This often entails public entities like donor governments, multilateral development banks, development financial institutions, and climate funds incentivizing private investors to invest capital by agreeing to assume a portion of the risk. De-risking can encompass various tactics, including debt, equity, and guarantees, distributing the risk among involved parties, or transferring it to a third party.

The operational framework

FDI has been increasingly utilized as a significant service for economic development, underscoring its crucial role in driving global economic growth and prosperity.
A critical aspect of this entails reimagining the operational framework – essentially redesigning the approach through which the country attracts foreign direct investment. In numerous transformations, countries may need to reconsider their fundamental approach to FDI attraction and reassess their value proposition: identifying the appropriate target investor segments to engage with, the incentives and services to provide, and the model that can optimize FDI inflows and economic benefits.
Moreover, FDI can act as a channel for the transfer of technology and aid in expediting digital transformation. It can enhance economic integration by bolstering access to global markets. Additionally, FDI plays a crucial role in supporting economies during and after economic downturns.
FDI as a service aims to outline the structure of tasks, responsibilities, and relationships between stakeholders, allowing for clear delineation of connections between its constituent investors and host countries. Providing foreign direct investment as a comprehensive, end-to-end service enhances the potential value realized in growth markets.
When executed effectively, this service facilitates seamless processes throughout the investment cycle, establishes methods for minimizing inefficiencies and maximizing effectiveness, sets standards for processes, integrates feedback mechanisms to encourage continual improvement, and optimizes handling of exceptions.
Although the potential for FDI spill-overs is widely recognized, it's important not to assume their positive impacts. The realization of FDI benefits in the host economy relies on various factors, including the competitiveness of local producers, the strategic decisions of foreign-owned firms, and the technological disparities between domestic and foreign-owned firms, thereby affecting the absorptive capacity of local producers.

FDI-as-a-service

This is where FDI-as-a-service comes in. This strategic approach involves top-down planning to optimize the outcomes of the investment portfolio by efficiently developing and delivering projects, with the aim to de-risk projects, scale investments, and optimize the overall outcome.
Providing FDI as a service through end-to-end solutions significantly leverages tokenization to transform and democratize foreign direct investment in growth markets.
Tokenization enables the fractional ownership of real-world assets, providing increased liquidity and democratizing access to sustainable investments for a wider range of investors. This process enhances asset management by enabling the automation and standardization of key operations through smart contracts.
Crucial steps such as compliance verifications, investor credential checks, and dividend distributions are automated, drastically reducing the burdens of manual documentation and inconsistent records. Blockchain technology facilitates rapid settlement, reducing risks associated with counterparty transactions. Its transparency and traceability ensure that each transaction is logged, simplifying audits and enhancing accountability, which in turn helps prevent fraud and strengthens transactional integrity.
The efficiencies gained through tokenization make the markets more accessible, lowering minimum investment sizes, diminishing geographical barriers, and allowing a wider range of participants. This increases both market volume and liquidity. Tokenization also supports nearly instantaneous settlements, further enhancing liquidity and benefiting both investors and traders.
By converting tangible and intangible assets into digital tokens, tokenization revolutionizes access to investments. It allows for fractional ownership, enabling the division of high-value assets into smaller, more affordable units. This transformation opens up investment opportunities to a broader, more diverse audience, democratizing access and reducing entry barriers, making it an ideal strategy for attracting FDI into emerging markets.

Tokenization on the blockchain

Tokenization of real-world assets, as part of FDI-as-a-service, involves converting tangible and intangible assets into digital tokens on a blockchain. These assets can include traditional ones like real estate, agricultural products, mining commodities, financial assets like equities and bonds, or even intellectual properties such as digital art.
This process may involve assets that are simultaneously represented in traditional record systems (off-chain), or those exclusively managed on the blockchain (on-chain). The tokenization process generally unfolds in four essential steps, each critical to ensuring the asset's successful digital representation and integration into growth markets through FDI services.
Tokenization of real-world assets as part of FDI-as-a-service boasts significant advantages, notably the democratization of access which potentially enhances liquidity through the fractionalization of assets, or the division of ownership into smaller, more manageable shares. This process can simplify previously labor-intensive manual procedures, reducing costs and making investment opportunities accessible to smaller investors within certain asset classes.
Nonetheless, regulatory constraints may limit access to these investments, often restricting tokenized assets to accredited investors. Although fractionalization enhances liquidity and is an attractive proposition, the distribution of tokenized assets must achieve a much larger scale to fully realize true democratization of access.
Furthermore, in the context of FDI as a service, the blockchain technology underlying the tokenization of real-world assets ensures complete transparency and immutability regarding ownership, transactions, and crucial market data, all verifiable by any participant.
We are confident in the future of tokenized assets. One estimate suggests the market could even grow 30-fold by 2030, when it may reach a value of over $28 trillion.Foreign direct investment (FDI) is a driving force behind economic growth. Four experts in the field – Henrik von Scheel, Paul Lalovich, Emilija Vukovic, and Tesha Teshanovich – outline how the innovative concepts of FDI-as-a-service and real world asset (RWA) tokenization can help growth markets beef up their FDI attractiveness. The primary objective of FDI is to secure capital for investment. When conducive conditions are in place, FDI has the potential to foster job creation and sustainable development by enhancing an economy's productive capacity. Still, regulatory hurdles, political instability, currency fluctuations, economic uncertainties, infrastructure limitations, cultural differences, and legal issues often hinder this goal.
Overcoming the obstacles of FDI requires innovative solutions that address the needs of investors, companies, and regulators. By engaging with local suppliers and forming partnerships with domestic businesses, foreign-owned companies can create additional benefits for the host economy, such as productivity spillovers through various channels. According to FDI Markets, companies worldwide announced over $1.33 trillion worth of greenfield foreign direct investment in 2023, marking an increase of nearly 4% from the previous year. The growth markets opportunity We consider growth markets among the most undervalued asset classes worldwide, characterized by strong and improving earnings growth and financial metrics such as return on equity, free cash flow yield, and dividend yield. These markets benefit from an economic growth advantage over developed ones, with growth rates in emerging economies outpacing those in developed markets. This growth trend is not solely reliant on China; other factors contribute, resulting in an upward trajectory for economic growth in growth markets while growth in developed markets decelerates. Globally, growth economies have typically rebounded from the global financial crisis faster than more advanced economies. Consequently, it's unsurprising that companies in developed nations are increasingly seeking avenues to expand their presence abroad. This quest for new growth opportunities has brought attention to foreign direct investment policies worldwide, offering a promising outlook for investors. According to the research conducted by Kearney, findings indicate a strong sense of investor optimism, with the potential for further growth over the next three years. A high percentage of respondents stated their intentions to boost their foreign direct investment in the coming years, and most expressed the view that FDI would play a more critical role in enhancing their corporate profitability and competitiveness over the next three years. The realization of FDI advantages also hinges on the purpose behind the investment. Without responsible business practices and thorough research, FDI may lead to unintended consequences for the recipient nation. The presence of foreign multinational corporations can occasionally spark concerns regarding their potential social and environmental implications, particularly concerning the erosion of labor standards and their involvement in the unsustainable exploitation of natural resources. Bringing FDI in Challenges facing foreign direct investment include navigating complex regulatory frameworks, cultural differences, and political instability in some regions. Developing countries encounter significant hurdles in attracting foreign direct investment, hindering their ability to fully capitalize on the associated benefits. In the past, developing countries have struggled to attract consistent foreign direct investment that could serve as a steady catalyst for economic growth, especially in sectors beyond oil and gas. Additionally, foreign investors have shown restrained interest due to concerns regarding regulatory and political risks and shortcomings in economic fundamentals such as infrastructure and human capital. Investors in developed nations, where most private capital is concentrated, might lack familiarity with growth markets and developing economies. Consequently, the perceived risks associated with conducting business beyond their accustomed environment could lead to higher risk premiums. This, in turn, has the potential to render projects non-bankable or non-viable for investors. However, developing nations should remain focused on enhancing the enabling environment. By doing so, they can attract greater private investment and ensure that these investments yield optimal outcomes and returns. This, in turn, fosters a cycle of increased investment. To stimulate increased FDI in developing countries, mechanisms for de-risking are essential. De-risking involves reallocating, sharing, or mitigating the existing or potential risks linked to the investment. In contrast, financial de-risking utilizes financial strategies to mitigate or diminish the risks linked with projects. This often entails public entities like donor governments, multilateral development banks, development financial institutions, and climate funds incentivizing private investors to invest capital by agreeing to assume a portion of the risk. De-risking can encompass various tactics, including debt, equity, and guarantees, distributing the risk among involved parties, or transferring it to a third party. The operational framework FDI has been increasingly utilized as a significant service for economic development, underscoring its crucial role in driving global economic growth and prosperity. A critical aspect of this entails reimagining the operational framework – essentially redesigning the approach through which the country attracts foreign direct investment. In numerous transformations, countries may need to reconsider their fundamental approach to FDI attraction and reassess their value proposition: identifying the appropriate target investor segments to engage with, the incentives and services to provide, and the model that can optimize FDI inflows and economic benefits. Moreover, FDI can act as a channel for the transfer of technology and aid in expediting digital transformation. It can enhance economic integration by bolstering access to global markets. Additionally, FDI plays a crucial role in supporting economies during and after economic downturns. FDI as a service aims to outline the structure of tasks, responsibilities, and relationships between stakeholders, allowing for clear delineation of connections between its constituent investors and host countries. Providing foreign direct investment as a comprehensive, end-to-end service enhances the potential value realized in growth markets. When executed effectively, this service facilitates seamless processes throughout the investment cycle, establishes methods for minimizing inefficiencies and maximizing effectiveness, sets standards for processes, integrates feedback mechanisms to encourage continual improvement, and optimizes handling of exceptions. Although the potential for FDI spill-overs is widely recognized, it's important not to assume their positive impacts. The realization of FDI benefits in the host economy relies on various factors, including the competitiveness of local producers, the strategic decisions of foreign-owned firms, and the technological disparities between domestic and foreign-owned firms, thereby affecting the absorptive capacity of local producers.

2024.05.18 22:21 cocodonutoil Got dumped for the nth time and I don’t know what to do. 23F 34M I tried seeing other people but how does one find something real in this economy?

Had a long distance relationship for the last 15 months where I met on different occassions through the year. We met at a wedding and realised that we were moving to the same country and over time, started seeing each other.
Unfortunately, he couldn’t find employment in the new country (we were still doing long distance here, as we were on two ends of the coast) and moved back to our home country, while I stayed here.
We tried really hard to make it work and not gonna lie, it was hard, distance, his unemployment, age gap, it was hard, but we were so so so good. However, from the very beginning, he was very hot and cold towards me. A conversation regarding “I can’t do long distance” or “it’s gonna be a while until we’re together” or “I need to focus on my career and with a relationship, I can’t” was recurring, every month, since about 5-6 months into the relationship.
I brushed it off as his situation driving him insane, because he came back each time he left (and I know I’m the fool for taking him back) but that’s just how the dynamic was. It reached a point where I didn’t know if I would wake up knowing he exists in my life or not.
For visa purposes, he would have to end up in the country where I am, to retain his status, therefore, I suggested that he move here and take up any employment - he is unemployed for over a year, and counting…..
I was there through it all but he refused to seek my network’s support and even was angry when he secured a referral in my organisation.
The last month has been horrible as he left (again) but has shown no signs of coming back. He says he can’t fight for the relationship as he can’t balance a career and relationship.
I have tried, really, I have tried to understand how can a man in his mid 30s not balance career and a relationship, but he keeps on saying he’s not able to, and he can’t keep on fighting for this relationship. I texted him over the last few weeks on SMS and we ended up talking 3-4 times for an hour or two, but he always circled back to not getting back together due to his inability to balance and fight for us.
I had had enough. I convinced myself that I can’t force myself to stay, and coincidentally on the same day, I ended up getting asked out by someone and decided to go out for drinks.
I realised I wasn’t ready for anything but appreciated spending the time with someone new and putting myself out there. I ended up downloading apps as well but gosh, isn’t that horrific!
Right now, I’m half way waiting for my ex to come back while also convincing that he doesn’t want me and I’m just 23 in one of the greatest cities in the world, and I should move on, but I feel horrible that he wasn’t brave enough to stay and fight, and ran away from his responsibilities and relationship when it was time to fight.
I’m very confused on what to do, but more than that, how do I find something real now?
I don’t want to hookup or do casual nonsense. I am a lover girl, who wants to have a career and be a wife some day. I appreciate man in my life but I don’t know how to find one who would stay? Especially, in this economy.

2024.05.18 22:02 Relloishere Is it ok to date my friends ex

I (22M) have recently started talking to my friend Larry’s (21M) ex girlfriend Kait (21F). This all started three years ago when i was 19. Back then my friend Larry cheated on his gf Kait with my sister. This made me resentful and feel betrayed by my friend, It also made me seek revenge. At first i talked to kait with the sole purpose of having sex. We got to know each other and as time passed i stopped caring about what Larry did, furthermore i stopped wanting revenge. Me and Larry made up. I talked to his girlfriend secretly for a while before ultimately telling Larry that me and kait still keep in contact (i felt guilty, he wasn’t too happy, but it didn’t cause a fight). fast forward to present day, Kait and I flirt. I like her. I feel like i could date her, but the possibility of mine and Larry’s friendship ending scares me to be honest. Am i wrong for doing this?

"L-MUT tgħid li l-pretensjonijiet tal-ministru dwar żieda proposta ta’ €10,000 fis-salarju tal-għalliema mhumiex minni
Meta wieġeb għall-istqarrija tal-MUT il-Ministru għall-Edukazzjoni Clifton Grima saħaq li l-proposti tal-gvern jinkludu salarju inizjali ta’ €36,000, u hedded li jippubblika l-ftehim kollu propost.
Il-Malta Union of Teachers (MUT) ċaħdet pubblikament it-talbiet li għamel il-Ministru tal-Edukazzjoni Clifton Grima dwar żidiet fil-pagi tal-għalliema.
Nhar is-Sibt, l-MUT kienet qed tirreaġixxi għal artiklu ta’ ONE News, fejn Grima ħeġġeġ lill-unjin biex tinforma lill-membri tagħha bil-proposti finanzjarji tal-gvern, hekk kif stqarr li l-pakkett finanzjarju jinkludi salarju inizjali ta’ €36,000 għall-għalliema, li jirrappreżenta żieda ta’ €10,000. .
L-affermazzjonijiet tal-Ministru ta’ €10,000 żieda u salarju inizjali ta’ €36,000 għal għalliema ġodda mhumiex riflessi fil-proposti finanzjarji tal-gvern lill-MUT, qalet il-union. L-MUT ppubblikat siltiet mill-aħħar proposta tal-gvern fuq il-websajt tagħhom, li ma juru l-ebda evidenza ta’ dawn iż-żidiet allegati.
Minflok, id-dokumenti jiżvelaw żidiet proposti fit-tagħbija tat-tagħlim, telf ta’ parità bejn gradi ekwivalenti bħalissa, u arretrati tas-salarji għall-2024 eskluż l-2023.
L-MUT akkużat lill-gvern li qed jipprova jsalva wiċċ billi jiskredita lill-unjin aktar milli jaħdem lejn soluzzjoni għall-ftehim settorjali. L-union enfasizzat ir-rieda tagħha li tkompli tiġġieled għar-rikonoxximent u t-trattament ġust tal-edukaturi, peress li kkonkludiet li l-membri tagħha, ""m'għandhomx ikunu intimidati.""
Nhar il-Ġimgħa, l-MUT ħarġet ultimatum lill-gvern dwar il-ftehim settorjali li għad irid jintlaħaq qbil dwaru, hekk kif l-unjin iddikjarat ukoll tilwima kummerċjali mal-gvern.
Il-Ministru tal-Edukazzjoni jwieġeb għat-talbiet tal-MUT
Meta wieġeb għall-istqarrija tal-MUT nhar is-Sibt, il-Ministru tal-Edukazzjoni Clifton Grima saħaq li l-proposti tal-gvern jinkludu salarju inizjali ta’ €36,000. “U din hija żieda waħda biss għal kategorija waħda ta’ edukaturi,” qal Grima. Huwa nnota li l-proposti jinkludu aktar żidiet li ma jeħtieġux xogħol jew kwalifiki addizzjonali.
Grima tenna l-appell tiegħu biex l-MUT tinforma bis-sħiħ lill-membri tagħha, u żied li l-unjin m’hi qed tagħmel l-ebda referenza għall-aħħar żewġ laqgħat bejn il-gvern u l-union.
Grima hedded li jippubblika l-ftehim kollu propost jekk l-MUT ""tkompli taqsam informazzjoni selettiva li tpinġi stampa falza.""

"MUT表示部長關於教師薪資增加10,000歐元的說法並不屬實
針對 MUT 的聲明,教育部長 Clifton Grima 堅稱政府的提案確實包括 36,000 歐元的起薪,並威脅要公佈整個擬議交易
馬耳他教師工會(MUT)公開駁斥了教育部長克利夫頓·格里馬(Clifton Grima)關於教師加薪的說法。
週六,MUT 對 ONE News 的一篇文章做出了回應,其中 Grima 鼓勵工會向其成員通報政府的財務提案,他表示財務方案包括教師起薪 36,000 歐元,這意味著增加了 10,000 歐元。
工會表示,部長關於新教師加薪 10,000 歐元和起薪 36,000 歐元的主張並未反映在政府向 MUT 提出的財務提案中。 MUT 在其網站上發布了政府最新提案的摘錄,其中沒有顯示這些聲稱的增長的證據。
相反,這些文件顯示了擬議的教學負擔增加、當前同等年級之間的不平等,以及 2024 年(不包括 2023 年)的工資拖欠。
MUT 指責政府試圖透過抹黑工會來挽回面子,而不是努力解決部門協議。該聯盟強調其決心繼續爭取教育工作者的認可和公平待遇,並得出結論,其成員「不應被嚇倒」。
週五,MUT 就尚未達成協議的部門協議向政府發出了最後通牒,因為工會也宣布與政府之間存在貿易爭端。
教育部長回應 MUT 的說法
教育部長克利夫頓·格里馬 (Clifton Grima) 在回應 MUT 週六的聲明時堅稱,政府的提案確實包括 36,000 歐元的起薪。 「這只是一類教育工作者的加薪,」格里馬說。他指出,這些提議包括更多的加薪,但不需要額外的工作量或資格。
格里馬再次呼籲 MUT 充分告知其成員,並補充說工會沒有提及政府和工會之間的最近兩次會議。
Grima 威脅稱,如果 MUT“繼續選擇性地分享描繪虛假圖景的信息”,他將宣布整個擬議交易。

"MUT says minister's claims of proposed €10,000 rise in teacher's salary is not true
Responding to the MUT's statement education minister Clifton Grima insisted that government's proposals does include a €36,000 starting salary, and threatened to publish the entire proposed deal
The Malta Union of Teachers (MUT) has publicly refuted claims made by education minister Clifton Grima regarding salary increases for teachers.
On Saturday, the MUT was reacting to a ONE News article, where Grima encouraged the union to inform its members of government's financial proposals, as he stated that the financial package includes a starting salary of €36,000 for teachers, which represents a €10,000 increase.
The minister's assertions of €10,000 raises and a starting salary of €36,000 for new teachers are not reflected in the government's financial proposals to the MUT, the union said. The MUT published extracts from the government's latest proposal on their website, which show no evidence of these claimed increases.
Instead, the documents reveal proposed increases in teaching load, a loss of parity between currently equivalent grades, and salary arrears for 2024 excluding 2023.
The MUT accused the government of trying to save face by discrediting the union rather than working towards a solution for the sectoral agreement. The union emphasised its resolve to continue fighting for the recognition and fair treatment of educators, as it concluded that its members, ""shall not be intimidated.""
On Friday, the MUT issued an ultimatum to the government regarding the sectoral agreement which is yet to be agreed upon, as the union also declared a trade dispute with the government.
Education minister responds to MUT claims
Responding to the MUT's statement on Saturday, education minister Clifton Grima insisted that government's proposals does include a €36,000 starting salary. ""And this is only one raise for one category of educators,"" Grima said. He noted that the proposals include more raises which don't require additional work load or qualifications.
Grima reiterated his call for the MUT to fully inform its members, adding that the union is making no reference to the last two meetings between government and the union.
Grima threatened to publish the entire proposed deal should the MUT ""continue to share selective information that paints a false picture.""

"एमयूटी का कहना है कि शिक्षक के वेतन में €10,000 की प्रस्तावित वृद्धि के मंत्री के दावे सही नहीं हैं
एमयूटी के बयान पर प्रतिक्रिया देते हुए शिक्षा मंत्री क्लिफ्टन ग्रिमा ने जोर देकर कहा कि सरकार के प्रस्तावों में €36,000 का शुरुआती वेतन शामिल है, और पूरे प्रस्तावित सौदे को प्रकाशित करने की धमकी दी
माल्टा यूनियन ऑफ टीचर्स (एमयूटी) ने शिक्षकों के वेतन वृद्धि के संबंध में शिक्षा मंत्री क्लिफ्टन ग्रिमा द्वारा किए गए दावों का सार्वजनिक रूप से खंडन किया है।
शनिवार को, एमयूटी एक समाचार लेख पर प्रतिक्रिया दे रहा था, जहां ग्रिमा ने संघ को अपने सदस्यों को सरकार के वित्तीय प्रस्तावों के बारे में सूचित करने के लिए प्रोत्साहित किया, क्योंकि उन्होंने कहा था कि वित्तीय पैकेज में शिक्षकों के लिए €36,000 का शुरुआती वेतन शामिल है, जो €10,000 की वृद्धि दर्शाता है .
संघ ने कहा कि मंत्री के €10,000 की बढ़ोतरी और नए शिक्षकों के लिए €36,000 के शुरुआती वेतन के दावे एमयूटी के लिए सरकार के वित्तीय प्रस्तावों में परिलक्षित नहीं होते हैं। एमयूटी ने अपनी वेबसाइट पर सरकार के नवीनतम प्रस्ताव के उद्धरण प्रकाशित किए, जो इन दावा की गई वृद्धि का कोई सबूत नहीं दिखाते हैं।
इसके बजाय, दस्तावेज़ शिक्षण भार में प्रस्तावित वृद्धि, वर्तमान समकक्ष ग्रेड के बीच समानता की हानि और 2023 को छोड़कर 2024 के लिए वेतन बकाया का खुलासा करते हैं।
एमयूटी ने सरकार पर क्षेत्रीय समझौते के समाधान की दिशा में काम करने के बजाय संघ को बदनाम करके चेहरा बचाने की कोशिश करने का आरोप लगाया। संघ ने शिक्षकों की मान्यता और उचित व्यवहार के लिए लड़ाई जारी रखने के अपने संकल्प पर जोर दिया, क्योंकि उसने निष्कर्ष निकाला कि उसके सदस्यों को ""डराया नहीं जाएगा।""
शुक्रवार को, एमयूटी ने क्षेत्रीय समझौते के संबंध में सरकार को एक अल्टीमेटम जारी किया, जिस पर अभी तक सहमति नहीं बनी है, क्योंकि संघ ने सरकार के साथ व्यापार विवाद की भी घोषणा की है।
शिक्षा मंत्री ने एमयूटी के दावों का जवाब दिया
शनिवार को एमयूटी के बयान पर प्रतिक्रिया देते हुए, शिक्षा मंत्री क्लिफ्टन ग्रिमा ने जोर देकर कहा कि सरकार के प्रस्तावों में €36,000 का शुरुआती वेतन शामिल है। ग्रिमा ने कहा, ""और यह शिक्षकों की एक श्रेणी के लिए केवल एक वेतन वृद्धि है।"" उन्होंने कहा कि प्रस्तावों में अधिक वेतन वृद्धि शामिल है जिसके लिए अतिरिक्त कार्य भार या योग्यता की आवश्यकता नहीं है।
ग्रिमा ने एमयूटी से अपने सदस्यों को पूरी तरह से सूचित करने के अपने आह्वान को दोहराया, और कहा कि संघ सरकार और संघ के बीच पिछली दो बैठकों का कोई संदर्भ नहीं दे रहा है।
ग्रिमा ने धमकी दी कि अगर एमयूटी ""झूठी तस्वीर पेश करने वाली चयनात्मक जानकारी साझा करना जारी रखता है तो वह पूरे प्रस्तावित सौदे को प्रकाशित कर देगा।""

"Laut MUT sind die Behauptungen des Ministers über die vorgeschlagene Erhöhung des Lehrergehalts um 10.000 Euro nicht wahr
In seiner Antwort auf die MUT-Erklärung bestand Bildungsminister Clifton Grima darauf, dass die Vorschläge der Regierung tatsächlich ein Einstiegsgehalt von 36.000 Euro vorsähen, und drohte mit der Veröffentlichung des gesamten vorgeschlagenen Deals
Die Malta Union of Teachers (MUT) hat Behauptungen des Bildungsministers Clifton Grima bezüglich Gehaltserhöhungen für Lehrer öffentlich zurückgewiesen.
Am Samstag reagierte die MUT auf einen Artikel von ONE News, in dem Grima die Gewerkschaft ermutigte, ihre Mitglieder über die Finanzvorschläge der Regierung zu informieren, indem er erklärte, dass das Finanzpaket ein Einstiegsgehalt von 36.000 Euro für Lehrer beinhaltet, was einer Erhöhung um 10.000 Euro entspricht .
Die Behauptungen des Ministers, Gehaltserhöhungen um 10.000 Euro und ein Einstiegsgehalt von 36.000 Euro für neue Lehrer seien nicht in den Finanzvorschlägen der Regierung für die MUT enthalten, sagte die Gewerkschaft. Die MUT veröffentlichte auf ihrer Website Auszüge aus dem neuesten Vorschlag der Regierung, die keine Beweise für diese behaupteten Erhöhungen enthalten.
Stattdessen offenbaren die Dokumente vorgeschlagene Erhöhungen des Lehrpensums, einen Verlust der Parität zwischen derzeit gleichwertigen Noten und Gehaltsrückstände für 2024 mit Ausnahme von 2023.
Die MUT warf der Regierung vor, sie versuche ihr Gesicht zu wahren, indem sie die Gewerkschaft diskreditiere, anstatt auf eine Lösung für die Branchenvereinbarung hinzuarbeiten. Die Gewerkschaft betonte ihre Entschlossenheit, weiterhin für die Anerkennung und faire Behandlung von Pädagogen zu kämpfen, und kam zu dem Schluss, dass ihre Mitglieder „sich nicht einschüchtern lassen dürfen“.
Am Freitag stellte die MUT der Regierung ein Ultimatum bezüglich der Branchenvereinbarung, auf die noch keine Einigung erzielt wurde, da die Gewerkschaft auch einen Handelsstreit mit der Regierung erklärte.
Bildungsminister antwortet auf MUT-Behauptungen
In seiner Antwort auf die MUT-Erklärung vom Samstag bestand Bildungsminister Clifton Grima darauf, dass die Vorschläge der Regierung tatsächlich ein Einstiegsgehalt von 36.000 Euro vorsähen. „Und das ist nur eine Gehaltserhöhung für eine Kategorie von Pädagogen“, sagte Grima. Er wies darauf hin, dass die Vorschläge mehr Gehaltserhöhungen vorsähen, die keine zusätzliche Arbeitsbelastung oder Qualifikationen erfordern.
Grima wiederholte seine Forderung an die MUT, ihre Mitglieder umfassend zu informieren, und fügte hinzu, dass die Gewerkschaft sich nicht auf die letzten beiden Treffen zwischen Regierung und Gewerkschaft beziehe.
Grima drohte damit, den gesamten geplanten Deal zu veröffentlichen, sollte die MUT „weiterhin selektive Informationen weitergeben, die ein falsches Bild zeichnen“.

2024.05.18 21:51 sinomaltanews "Editorjal TMID: Il-qawwa tal-protesti

"Editorjal TMID: Il-qawwa tal-protesti
Il-qawwa ta’ protesta paċifika qiegħda hemm biex jaraha kulħadd. Il-pajjiż ra ħafna f’dawn l-aħħar snin – protesti kontra art fiż-Żonqor li qed tingħata lill-Università Amerikana ta’ Malta, protesti kontra l-qlugħ mill-għeruq tas-siġar u għall-ħarsien tal-ambjent inġenerali, protesti li jsejħu r-riżenji u t-tmiem tal-korruzzjoni.
L-2019 kienet eżempju perfett tal-impatt li jista’ jkollhom il-protesti, fejn wara l-arrest ta’ Yorgen Fenech fuq il-qtil tal-ġurnalista, Daphne Caruana Galizia, kienu nqalgħu protesti madwar il-pajjiż li jitolbu ġustizzja għall-ġurnalista maqtula, li rriżultaw fir-riżenja ta’ dak iż-żmien. Prim Ministru, Joseph Muscat.
REKLAM
Issa qed jerġgħu jinfaqgħu l-protesti, din id-darba marbuta mal-ftehim infami tal-isptarijiet. Il-qrati kienu annullaw il-ftehim is-sena l-oħra, u semmew il-frodi, deċiżjoni li kienet ikkonfermata wkoll mill-qorti tal-appell, li użat il-kelma kollużjoni fis-sentenza tagħha.
Riċentement ġiet fi tmiemha inkjesta maġisterjali dwar l-aspett kriminali tal-ftehim tal-isptarijiet, u tressqu akkużi fil-qorti. Dawk akkużati jinkludu l-ogħla uffiċjali attwali u eks uffiċjali fil-pajjiż. Fosthom l-eks Prim Ministru, Joseph Muscat, u l-eks Chief of Staff tiegħu, Keith Schembri, kif ukoll l-eks Ministru, Konrad.
Mizzi. Chris Fearne huwa mixli wkoll, u għamel it-tajjeb u rriżenja minn Deputat Prim Ministru u Ministru. Il-Gvernatur tal-Bank Ċentrali, Edward Scicluna, jinsab mixli wkoll, iżda ma rrinunzjax … għandu biex ma jikkawżax ħsara lir-reputazzjoni.
Huma kollha, flimkien mal-oħrajn akkużati, se jkollhom l-opportunità li jiddefendu lilhom infushom fil-qorti, u huma l-qrati li jiddeċiedu jekk humiex ħatja jew innoċenti. Iżda l-Prim Ministru, Robert Abela, ħa d-deċiżjoni li jattakka l-inkjesta maġisterjali, billi qajjem dubji dwar iż-żmien tal-konklużjoni u qajjem mistoqsijiet dwarha.
Huwa għamel ukoll kummenti kontra l-ġurnalisti u rabat xi wħud ma’ dak li sejjaħ ‘l-establishment’. Huwa kors perikoluż li wieħed jieħu peress li jista’ jkun ta’ theddida mhux ħażin għall-ġurnalisti u l-membri tal-ġudikatura. Jista’ wkoll ipoġġi biża’ fl-avukati tal-prosekuzzjoni u l-membri tal-ġudikatura li jkollhom jisimgħu l-kawżi kriminali. Hu mhux il-medja Joe, imma l-Prim Ministru ta’ nazzjon, fejn hemm differenza, u l-azzjonijiet tiegħu huma inaċċettabbli.
Dan kollu wassal biex faqqgħu protesti fil-pajjiż, apparti dikjarazzjonijiet qawwija minn bosta setturi li qalu lill-Prim Ministru biex iwaqqaf l-attakki tiegħu fuq il-ġudikatura u l-ġurnalisti.
Studenti universitarji nġabru fi Triq ir-Repubblika biex jipprotestaw u kollettivament ikkundannaw il-kummenti tal-Prim Ministru Robert Abela kontra l-ġudikatura. Aktar tard il-Partit Nazzjonalista kien għamel protesta tiegħu stess barra l-Parlament, fejn il-Kap tal-PN, Bernard Grech, kien ikkritika d-deċiżjoni tal-Ispeaker tal-Kamra li ma jħallix dibattitu urġenti dwar is-sitwazzjoni riċenti, u qal ukoll li l-protesta kienet biex ‘[ar;u lin-nazzjon minn Abela’ u kkundanna d-dikjarazzjonijiet attakkanti tal-Prim Ministru dwar il-;udikatura.
Aktar tard, kienet organizzata protesta mir-Repubblika, appoġġjata minn 21 għaqda, li sejħet għal Malta nadifa u kkundannat id-dikjarazzjonijiet li għamel il-Prim Ministru kontra ġurnalisti u membri tal-ġudikatura, fost l-oħrajn.
Il-protesti jgħinu biex juru r-rabja tan-nies għas-sitwazzjoni, u jenfasizzaw il-kwistjonijiet li n-nies mhumiex kuntenti bihom. Il-protesti huma b’saħħithom, u l-Prim Ministru assolutament irid jagħti kas ta’ dak li qed jingħad minn dawk ta’ rieda tajba.
Għandu jsejjaħ għat-tneħħija ta’ Scicluna peress li l-pożizzjoni tiegħu, filwaqt li jiffaċċja akkużi serji, mhix tenibbli. Għandu jirtira l-kummenti li għamel dwar l-inkjesta u dwar il-ġurnalisti. Dan huwa dak li hu tajjeb għall-pajjiż.

"TMID 社論:抗議的力量
和平抗議的力量是有目共睹的。近年來,該國發生了許多抗議活動——反對將祖科爾的土地給予馬耳他美國大學、反對拔除樹木和保護環境的抗議、要求辭職和結束腐敗的抗議。
2019 年是抗議活動影響力的一個完美例子,在約爾根·費內奇(Yorgen Fenech) 因記者達芙妮·卡魯阿納·加利齊亞(Daphne Caruana Galizia) 遇刺事件被捕後,全國各地爆發了抗議活動,要求為被謀殺的記者伸張正義,導致當時的記者辭職約瑟夫·馬斯喀特總理。

現在抗議活動再次爆發,這次與臭名昭著的醫院交易有關。去年,法院以欺詐為由撤銷了該交易,上訴法院也確認了這項決定,上訴法院在判決中使用了「共謀」一詞。
對醫院交易刑事方面的司法調查最近結束,並已向法庭提出指控。被指控的人包括該國現任和前任高級官員。其中包括前總理約瑟夫·馬斯喀特、前幕僚長基思·申布里以及前部長康拉德
米茲。克里斯·費恩(Chris Fearne)也受到指控,他做了正確的事,辭去了副總理和部長的職務。央行行長愛德華·希克魯納(Edward Scicluna)也受到指控,但他還沒有下台……他應該下台,以免造成聲譽損害。
他們所有人以及其他被指控的人都將有機會在法庭上為自己辯護,而法庭將決定他們是否有罪。但總理羅伯特·阿貝拉決定攻擊權威調查,質疑結論的時機並提出質疑。
他也發表過針對記者的評論,並將一些記者與他所謂的「當權派」聯繫起來。這是一條危險的道路,因為它可能對記者和司法人員構成相當大的威脅。它也可能使必須審理刑事案件的檢方律師和司法人員感到恐懼。他不是普通的喬,而是一個國家的總理,這是有區別的,他的行為是不可接受的。
所有這一切都導致該國爆發抗議活動,儘管許多部門發表強烈聲明,要求總理停止攻擊司法機構和記者。
大學生聚集在共和國街抗議,集體譴責總理羅伯特·阿貝拉針對司法機構的言論。國民黨後來在議會外舉行了自己的抗議活動,國民黨領袖伯納德·格雷奇批評眾議院議長不允許就最近局勢進行緊急辯論的決定,並表示抗議是為了“保護國家免受阿貝拉的侵害” ,並譴責總理有關司法機構的攻擊性言論。
隨後,共和黨在 21 個組織的支持下組織了一場抗議活動,呼籲建立一個廉潔的馬耳他,並譴責總理針對記者和司法人員的言論等。
抗議活動有助於表達人們對局勢的憤怒,並突顯人們不滿意的問題。抗議活動很強烈,首相絕對必須留意善意人士的言論。
他必須要求解除希克魯納的職務,因為他的立場雖然面臨嚴重指控,但站不住腳。他必須收回他對調查和記者發表的評論。這才是對國家有利的事。

"TMID Editorial: The power of protests
The power of a peaceful protest is there for all to see. The country has seen many in recent years – protests against land in Żonqor being given to the American University of Malta, protests against the uprooting of trees and to protect the environment in general, to protests calling for resignations and an end to corruption.
2019 was a perfect example of the impact that protests can have, where following the arrest of Yorgen Fenech over the assassination of journalist, Daphne Caruana Galizia, protests had erupted around the country calling for justice for the murdered journalist, resulting in the resignation of then Prime Minister, Joseph Muscat.
ADVERTISEMENT
Now protests are erupting again, this time tied to the infamous hospitals deal. The courts had annulled the deal last year, mentioning fraud, a decision that was also confirmed by the court of appeal, which used the word collusion in its judgement.
A magisterial inquiry into the criminal aspect of the hospitals deal recently came to a close, and charges have been filed in court. Those charged include current and former top officials in the country. Among them is former Prime Minister, Joseph Muscat, and his former Chief of Staff, Keith Schembri, as well as former Minister, Konrad
Mizzi. Chris Fearne is also charged, and he did the correct thing and resigned as Deputy Prime Minister and Minister. Governor of the Central Bank, Edward Scicluna, is also charged, but he has not stepped down … he should in order not to cause reputational damage.
They all, together with the others charged, will have the opportunity to defend themselves in court, and it is the courts that will decide whether they are guilty or innocent. But Prime Minister, Robert Abela, has taken the decision to attack the magisterial inquiry, by questioning the timing of the conclusion and raising questions about it.
He has also made comments against journalists and tying some to what he has dubbed ‘the establishment’. It is a dangerous course to take as it can be quite threatening to journalists and members of the judiciary. It can also put fear into the prosecution lawyers and members of the judiciary that will have to hear the criminal cases. He is not the average Joe, but the Prime Minister of a nation, where there is a difference, and his actions are unacceptable.
All of this has resulted in protests erupting in the country, aside from strong statements by many sectors telling the Prime Minister to stop his attacks on the judiciary and journalists.
University students gathered in Republic Street to protest and collectively condemned Prime Minister Robert Abela’s comments against the judiciary. The Nationalist Party had later held a protest of its own outside Parliament, where PN Leader, Bernard Grech, had criticised the decision by the Speaker of the House not to allow an urgent debate about the recent situation, and also said that the protest was to ‘protect the nation from Abela’ and condemned the Prime Minister’s attacking statements regarding the judiciary.
Later still, a protest was organised by Repubblika, backed by 21 organisations, calling for a clean Malta and condemning the statements made by the Prime Minister against journalists and members of the judiciary, as amongst other things.
The protests help show the people’s anger at the situation, and highlight the issues that the people are not happy with. Protests are powerful, and the Prime Minister absolutely must take heed of what is being said by those of goodwill.
He must call for the removal of Scicluna as his position, while he faces serious charges, is not tenable. He must retract the comments he has made about the inquiry and about journalists. This is what is right for the country.

"टीएमआईडी संपादकीय: विरोध की शक्ति
शांतिपूर्ण विरोध की शक्ति सभी को देखने को मिलती है। देश ने हाल के वर्षों में बहुत कुछ देखा है - ज़ोन्कोर में भूमि को अमेरिकी माल्टा विश्वविद्यालय को दिए जाने के खिलाफ विरोध प्रदर्शन, पेड़ों को उखाड़ने और सामान्य रूप से पर्यावरण की रक्षा के लिए विरोध प्रदर्शन, इस्तीफे और भ्रष्टाचार को समाप्त करने के लिए विरोध प्रदर्शन।
2019 विरोध प्रदर्शनों के प्रभाव का एक आदर्श उदाहरण था, जहां पत्रकार डैफने कारुआना गैलिज़िया की हत्या पर योर्गेन फेनेच की गिरफ्तारी के बाद, मारे गए पत्रकार के लिए न्याय की मांग करते हुए देश भर में विरोध प्रदर्शन शुरू हो गए थे, जिसके परिणामस्वरूप तत्कालीन राष्ट्रपति को इस्तीफा देना पड़ा था। प्रधान मंत्री, जोसेफ मस्कट।
विज्ञापन
अब विरोध प्रदर्शन फिर से भड़क रहे हैं, इस बार यह कुख्यात अस्पताल सौदे से जुड़ा है। अदालतों ने पिछले साल धोखाधड़ी का उल्लेख करते हुए सौदे को रद्द कर दिया था, एक फैसले की अपील की अदालत ने भी पुष्टि की थी, जिसने अपने फैसले में मिलीभगत शब्द का इस्तेमाल किया था।
अस्पताल सौदे के आपराधिक पहलू की मजिस्ट्रेट जांच हाल ही में समाप्त हुई और अदालत में आरोप दायर किए गए हैं। आरोप लगाने वालों में देश के वर्तमान और पूर्व शीर्ष अधिकारी शामिल हैं। इनमें पूर्व प्रधान मंत्री, जोसेफ मस्कट, और उनके पूर्व चीफ ऑफ स्टाफ, कीथ शेम्ब्री, साथ ही पूर्व मंत्री, कोनराड भी शामिल हैं।
मिज्जी. क्रिस फ़र्ने पर भी आरोप लगाया गया है, और उन्होंने सही काम किया और उप प्रधान मंत्री और मंत्री के पद से इस्तीफा दे दिया। सेंट्रल बैंक के गवर्नर, एडवर्ड सिक्लुना पर भी आरोप लगाया गया है, लेकिन उन्होंने पद नहीं छोड़ा है...प्रतिष्ठा को नुकसान न पहुंचे इसलिए उन्हें पद छोड़ना चाहिए।
उन सभी को, अन्य आरोपियों के साथ, अदालत में अपना बचाव करने का अवसर मिलेगा, और अदालतें ही तय करेंगी कि वे दोषी हैं या निर्दोष हैं। लेकिन प्रधान मंत्री रॉबर्ट अबेला ने निष्कर्ष के समय पर सवाल उठाकर और इसके बारे में सवाल उठाकर मजिस्ट्रेट जांच पर हमला करने का निर्णय लिया है।
उन्होंने पत्रकारों के ख़िलाफ़ भी टिप्पणियाँ की हैं और कुछ को उन्होंने 'प्रतिष्ठान' करार दिया है। यह एक खतरनाक रास्ता है क्योंकि यह पत्रकारों और न्यायपालिका के सदस्यों के लिए काफी खतरनाक हो सकता है। यह अभियोजन पक्ष के वकीलों और न्यायपालिका के सदस्यों में भी डर पैदा कर सकता है जिन्हें आपराधिक मामलों की सुनवाई करनी होगी। वह कोई औसत व्यक्ति नहीं हैं, बल्कि एक ऐसे देश के प्रधान मंत्री हैं, जहां मतभेद है और उनके कार्य अस्वीकार्य हैं।
इस सब के परिणामस्वरूप देश में विरोध प्रदर्शन शुरू हो गए हैं, कई क्षेत्रों द्वारा कड़े बयानों के अलावा प्रधानमंत्री से न्यायपालिका और पत्रकारों पर अपने हमलों को रोकने के लिए कहा गया है।
विश्वविद्यालय के छात्र विरोध करने के लिए रिपब्लिक स्ट्रीट में एकत्र हुए और न्यायपालिका के खिलाफ प्रधान मंत्री रॉबर्ट अबेला की टिप्पणियों की सामूहिक रूप से निंदा की। नेशनलिस्ट पार्टी ने बाद में संसद के बाहर अपना विरोध प्रदर्शन किया था, जहां पीएन नेता, बर्नार्ड ग्रेच ने सदन के अध्यक्ष द्वारा हाल की स्थिति के बारे में तत्काल बहस की अनुमति नहीं देने के फैसले की आलोचना की थी, और यह भी कहा था कि यह विरोध प्रदर्शन था। 'देश को अबेला से बचाएं' और न्यायपालिका को लेकर प्रधानमंत्री के हमलावर बयानों की निंदा की.
बाद में भी, रिपब्लिका द्वारा 21 संगठनों के समर्थन से एक विरोध प्रदर्शन आयोजित किया गया, जिसमें स्वच्छ माल्टा का आह्वान किया गया और अन्य बातों के अलावा, पत्रकारों और न्यायपालिका के सदस्यों के खिलाफ प्रधान मंत्री द्वारा दिए गए बयानों की निंदा की गई।
विरोध प्रदर्शन स्थिति पर लोगों का गुस्सा दिखाने में मदद करते हैं, और उन मुद्दों को उजागर करते हैं जिनसे लोग खुश नहीं हैं। विरोध शक्तिशाली है और प्रधानमंत्री को सद्भावना रखने वालों की बातों पर अवश्य ध्यान देना चाहिए।
उन्हें स्किकलुना को हटाने की मांग करनी चाहिए क्योंकि गंभीर आरोपों का सामना करते हुए उनका पद तर्कसंगत नहीं है। उन्हें जांच और पत्रकारों के बारे में की गई टिप्पणियों को वापस लेना चाहिए। यही देश के लिए सही है.

"Editorial TMID: El poder de las protestas
El poder de una protesta pacífica está ahí para que todos lo vean. El país ha sido testigo de muchas en los últimos años: protestas contra la cesión de tierras en Żonqor a la Universidad Americana de Malta, protestas contra el arranque de árboles y para proteger el medio ambiente en general, hasta protestas que piden dimisiones y el fin de la corrupción.
2019 fue un ejemplo perfecto del impacto que pueden tener las protestas, donde tras el arresto de Yorgen Fenech por el asesinato de la periodista Daphne Caruana Galizia, estallaron protestas en todo el país pidiendo justicia para el periodista asesinado, lo que resultó en la renuncia del entonces Primer Ministro, Joseph Muscat.
ANUNCIO
Ahora las protestas están estallando de nuevo, esta vez vinculadas al infame acuerdo con los hospitales. Los tribunales habían anulado el acuerdo el año pasado, alegando fraude, decisión que también fue confirmada por el tribunal de apelación, que utilizó la palabra colusión en su sentencia.
Recientemente concluyó una investigación judicial sobre el aspecto penal del acuerdo con los hospitales y se han presentado cargos ante los tribunales. Entre los acusados ​​se encuentran altos funcionarios actuales y anteriores del país. Entre ellos se encuentra el ex Primer Ministro, Joseph Muscat, y su ex Jefe de Gabinete, Keith Schembri, así como el ex Ministro, Konrad.
Mizzi. Chris Fearne también está acusado e hizo lo correcto y dimitió como viceprimer ministro y ministro. El gobernador del Banco Central, Edward Scicluna, también está acusado, pero no ha dimitido... debería hacerlo para no causar daños a su reputación.
Todos ellos, junto con los demás acusados, tendrán la oportunidad de defenderse ante los tribunales, y serán los tribunales los que decidirán si son culpables o inocentes. Pero el Primer Ministro, Robert Abela, ha tomado la decisión de atacar la investigación magistral, cuestionando el momento de su conclusión y planteando interrogantes al respecto.
También ha hecho comentarios contra periodistas y vinculando a algunos con lo que ha denominado “el establishment”. Es un camino peligroso, ya que puede resultar bastante amenazador para periodistas y miembros del poder judicial. También puede atemorizar a los abogados de la acusación y a los miembros del poder judicial que tendrán que conocer de los casos penales. No es el ciudadano medio, sino el Primer Ministro de una nación donde hay una diferencia y sus acciones son inaceptables.
Todo esto ha provocado protestas en el país, además de fuertes declaraciones de muchos sectores pidiéndole al Primer Ministro que deje de atacar al poder judicial y a los periodistas.
Los estudiantes universitarios se reunieron en Republic Street para protestar y condenar colectivamente los comentarios del Primer Ministro Robert Abela contra el poder judicial. Posteriormente, el Partido Nacionalista celebró su propia protesta frente al Parlamento, donde el líder del PN, Bernard Grech, criticó la decisión del presidente de la Cámara de no permitir un debate urgente sobre la reciente situación, y también dijo que la protesta tenía como objetivo 'proteger a la nación de Abela' y condenó las declaraciones ofensivas del Primer Ministro contra el poder judicial.
Más tarde, la República organizó una protesta, respaldada por 21 organizaciones, pidiendo una Malta limpia y condenando, entre otras cosas, las declaraciones del Primer Ministro contra periodistas y miembros del poder judicial.
Las protestas ayudan a mostrar el enojo de la gente por la situación y resaltan los problemas con los que la gente no está contenta. Las protestas son poderosas y el Primer Ministro debe absolutamente prestar atención a lo que dicen las personas de buena voluntad.
Debe pedir la destitución de Scicluna ya que su posición, aunque enfrenta graves acusaciones, no es sostenible. Debe retractarse de los comentarios que ha hecho sobre la investigación y sobre los periodistas. Esto es lo correcto para el país.

"Éditorial TMID : Le pouvoir des protestations
Le pouvoir d’une manifestation pacifique est là, aux yeux de tous. Le pays en a connu de nombreuses ces dernières années : des manifestations contre la cession de terres à Żonqor à l'Université américaine de Malte, des manifestations contre le déracinement des arbres et pour la protection de l'environnement en général, des manifestations appelant à la démission et à la fin de la corruption.
L'année 2019 a été un parfait exemple de l'impact que peuvent avoir les manifestations : à la suite de l'arrestation de Yorgen Fenech suite à l'assassinat de la journaliste Daphne Caruana Galizia, des manifestations ont éclaté dans tout le pays pour réclamer justice pour le journaliste assassiné, ce qui a entraîné la démission de celui-ci. Premier ministre, Joseph Muscat.
PUBLICITÉ
Aujourd’hui, les protestations éclatent à nouveau, cette fois liées au tristement célèbre accord sur les hôpitaux. La justice avait annulé l'accord l'année dernière, invoquant une fraude, une décision également confirmée par la cour d'appel, qui a utilisé le mot collusion dans son jugement.
Une enquête magistrale sur l'aspect criminel de l'accord sur les hôpitaux a récemment pris fin et des accusations ont été déposées devant le tribunal. Parmi les personnes inculpées figurent des hauts responsables actuels et anciens du pays. Parmi eux figurent l'ancien Premier ministre Joseph Muscat et son ancien chef de cabinet Keith Schembri, ainsi que l'ancien ministre Konrad.
Mizzi. Chris Fearne est également accusé, et il a fait le bon choix en démissionnant de son poste de vice-premier ministre et de ministre. Le gouverneur de la Banque centrale, Edward Scicluna, est également inculpé, mais il n'a pas démissionné… il devrait le faire pour ne pas nuire à sa réputation.
Tous, ainsi que les autres accusés, auront la possibilité de se défendre devant le tribunal, et ce sont les tribunaux qui décideront s'ils sont coupables ou innocents. Mais le Premier ministre, Robert Abela, a pris la décision de s'en prendre à l'enquête magistrale, en remettant en question le timing de sa conclusion et en soulevant des questions à son sujet.
Il a également fait des commentaires contre les journalistes et en a lié certains à ce qu’il a surnommé « l’establishment ». Il s’agit d’une démarche dangereuse car elle peut s’avérer très menaçante pour les journalistes et les membres du pouvoir judiciaire. Cela peut également semer la peur chez les avocats du parquet et chez les membres du pouvoir judiciaire qui devront entendre les affaires pénales. Il n’est pas un Joe moyen, mais le Premier ministre d’un pays où il y a une différence et où ses actions sont inacceptables.
Tout cela a donné lieu à des protestations dans le pays, outre les déclarations fermes de nombreux secteurs demandant au Premier ministre de cesser ses attaques contre le pouvoir judiciaire et les journalistes.
Les étudiants universitaires se sont rassemblés rue de la République pour protester et ont condamné collectivement les propos du Premier ministre Robert Abela contre le système judiciaire. Le Parti nationaliste a ensuite organisé une manifestation devant le Parlement, au cours de laquelle le leader du PN, Bernard Grech, a critiqué la décision du président de la Chambre de ne pas autoriser un débat urgent sur la situation récente, et a également déclaré que la manifestation avait pour but de ""protéger la nation d'Abela"" et a condamné les déclarations offensives du Premier ministre à l'égard du système judiciaire.
Plus tard encore, une manifestation a été organisée par Repubblika, soutenue par 21 organisations, appelant à une Malte propre et condamnant, entre autres, les déclarations du Premier ministre à l'encontre des journalistes et des membres du pouvoir judiciaire.
Les manifestations contribuent à montrer la colère de la population face à la situation et à mettre en lumière les problèmes qui ne la satisfont pas. Les protestations sont puissantes et le premier ministre doit absolument tenir compte de ce qui se dit des gens de bonne volonté.
Il doit demander le renvoi de Scicluna car sa position, bien qu'il fasse face à de graves accusations, n'est pas tenable. Il doit retirer les propos qu'il a tenus sur l'enquête et sur les journalistes. C'est ce qui est bon pour le pays.

"TMID-Editorial: Die Macht der Proteste
Die Kraft eines friedlichen Protests ist für alle sichtbar. Das Land hat in den letzten Jahren viele erlebt – Proteste gegen die Übergabe von Land in Żonqor an die American University of Malta, Proteste gegen das Entwurzeln von Bäumen und den Schutz der Umwelt im Allgemeinen, bis hin zu Protesten, die Rücktritte und ein Ende der Korruption fordern.
Das Jahr 2019 war ein perfektes Beispiel für die Auswirkungen, die Proteste haben können. Nach der Verhaftung von Yorgen Fenech wegen der Ermordung der Journalistin Daphne Caruana Galizia kam es im ganzen Land zu Protesten, die Gerechtigkeit für die ermordete Journalistin forderten, was zu dessen Rücktritt führte Premierminister Joseph Muscat.
WERBUNG
Jetzt kommt es erneut zu Protesten, diesmal im Zusammenhang mit dem berüchtigten Krankenhausdeal. Die Gerichte hatten den Deal letztes Jahr unter Berufung auf Betrug annulliert, eine Entscheidung, die auch vom Berufungsgericht bestätigt wurde, das in seinem Urteil das Wort „Kollusion“ verwendete.
Eine gerichtliche Untersuchung des strafrechtlichen Aspekts des Krankenhausgeschäfts wurde kürzlich abgeschlossen, und es wurde Anklage vor Gericht erhoben. Zu den Angeklagten zählen aktuelle und ehemalige Spitzenbeamte des Landes. Unter ihnen sind der ehemalige Premierminister Joseph Muscat und sein ehemaliger Stabschef Keith Schembri sowie der ehemalige Minister Konrad
Mizzi. Chris Fearne wird ebenfalls angeklagt, und er hat das Richtige getan und ist als stellvertretender Premierminister und Minister zurückgetreten. Auch der Gouverneur der Zentralbank, Edward Scicluna, wird angeklagt, aber er ist nicht zurückgetreten … das sollte er tun, um keinen Reputationsschaden zu verursachen.
Sie alle werden zusammen mit den anderen Angeklagten die Möglichkeit haben, sich vor Gericht zu verteidigen, und es sind die Gerichte, die darüber entscheiden werden, ob sie schuldig oder unschuldig sind. Aber Premierminister Robert Abela hat beschlossen, die richterliche Untersuchung anzugreifen, indem er den Zeitpunkt des Abschlusses in Frage stellte und Fragen dazu aufwarf.
Er hat auch Kommentare gegen Journalisten abgegeben und einige davon mit dem in Verbindung gebracht, was er als „das Establishment“ bezeichnet. Es ist ein gefährlicher Kurs, da er für Journalisten und Mitglieder der Justiz eine große Bedrohung darstellen kann. Es kann auch den Anwälten der Staatsanwaltschaft und den Mitgliedern der Justiz, die die Strafsachen anhören müssen, Angst einjagen. Er ist nicht der durchschnittliche Joe, sondern der Premierminister einer Nation, in der es Unterschiede gibt und seine Handlungen inakzeptabel sind.
All dies hat zu Protesten im Land geführt, abgesehen von energischen Erklärungen vieler Sektoren, in denen der Premierminister aufgefordert wurde, seine Angriffe auf die Justiz und Journalisten einzustellen.
Universitätsstudenten versammelten sich in der Republic Street, um zu protestieren und verurteilten gemeinsam die Äußerungen von Premierminister Robert Abela gegen die Justiz. Die Nationalistische Partei hatte später einen eigenen Protest vor dem Parlament abgehalten, bei dem PN-Chef Bernard Grech die Entscheidung des Sprechers des Repräsentantenhauses kritisiert hatte, keine Dringlichkeitsdebatte über die aktuelle Situation zuzulassen, und auch erklärt hatte, dass der Protest dies sei „Beschütze die Nation vor Abela“ und verurteilte die angreifenden Äußerungen des Premierministers in Bezug auf die Justiz.
Noch später organisierte Repubblika mit Unterstützung von 21 Organisationen einen Protest, der ein sauberes Malta forderte und unter anderem die Äußerungen des Premierministers gegen Journalisten und Mitglieder der Justiz verurteilte.
Die Proteste tragen dazu bei, die Wut der Menschen über die Situation zu zeigen und die Probleme hervorzuheben, mit denen die Menschen nicht zufrieden sind. Die Proteste sind heftig, und der Premierminister muss unbedingt darauf achten, was diejenigen guten Willens sagen.
Er muss die Absetzung von Scicluna fordern, da seine Position, obwohl er mit schweren Vorwürfen konfrontiert ist, nicht haltbar ist. Er muss seine Kommentare zur Untersuchung und zu Journalisten zurückziehen. Das ist das Richtige für das Land.

2024.05.18 21:40 sleepysnowboarder A great write-up I found of quotes (with sources) from Arab and Neutral people who witnessed the Nakba themselves, refuting a lot of the talking points we see today from the pro-pal community

I suppose the posters below will dismiss these quotes from Arab and neutral persona who witnessed the events at the time as “Zionist propaganda”. That’s their right, just as it’s my right to believe that their opinions are formed by malicious bias. They’re in no particular chronological order.
"The existence of these refugees is a direct result of the Arab States' opposition to the partition plan and the reconstitution of the State of Israel. The Arab states adopted this policy unanimously and the responsibility of its results, therefore is theirs; ...The flight of Arabs from the territory allotted by the UN for the Jewish state began immediately after the General Assembly decision at the end of November 1947. This wave of emigration, which lasted several weeks, comprised some thirty thousand people, chiefly well-to-do-families." - Emil Ghoury, secretary of the Arab High Council, Lebanese daily Al-Telegraph, 6 Sept 1948
"The Arabs did not want to submit to a truce they rather preferred to abandon their homes, their belongings and everything they possessed in the world and leave the town. This is in fact what they did." - Jamal Husseini, Acting Chairman of the Palestine Arab Higher Committee, told to the United Nations Security Council, quoted in the UNSC Official Records (N. 62), April 23, 1948, p. 14
The Arab exodus from the villages was not caused by the actual battle, but by the exaggerated description spread by Arab leaders to incite them to fight the Jews" - Yunes Ahmed Assad, refugee from the town of Deir Yassin, in Al Urdun, April 9, 1953
The Arab States encouraged the Palestine Arabs to leave their homes temporarily in order to be out of the way of the Arab invasion armies. - Falastin (Jordanian newspaper), February 19, 1949
"It must not be forgotten that the Arab Higher Committee encouraged the refugees' flight from their homes in Jaffa, Haifa, and Jerusalem." - Near East Arabic Broadcasting Station, Cyprus, April 3, 1949
"Since 1948 it is we who demanded the return of refugees... while it is we who made them to leave... We brought disaster upon... Arab refugees, by inviting them and bringing pressure to bear upon them to leave... We have rendered them dispossessed... We have accustomed them to begging... We have participated in lowering their moral and social level... Then we exploited them in executing crimes of murder, arson, and throwing bombs upon... men, women and children - all this in service of political purposes..." - Khaled al Azm, Syria's Prime Minister after the 1948 war
"The refugees were confident that their absence would not last long, and that they would return within a week or two. Their leaders had promised them that the Arab armies would crush the 'Zionist gangs' very quickly and that there was no need for panic or fear of a long exile." - Monsignor George Hakim, Greek Catholic Bishop of Galilee, in the Beirut newspaper Sada al Janub, August 16, 1948
"As early as the first months of 1948 the Arab League issued orders exhorting the [Arab Palestinian] people to seek a temporary refuge in neighboring countries, later to return to their abodes in the wake of the victorious Arab armies and obtain their share of abandoned Jewish property." - bulletin of The Research Group for European Migration Problems, 1957
"This wholesale exodus was due partly to the belief of the Arabs, encouraged by the boasting of an unrealistic Arab press and the irresponsible utterances of some of the Arab leaders that it could be only a matter of some weeks before the Jews were defeated by the armies of the Arab States and the Palestinian Arabs enabled to re-enter and retake possession of their country." - Edward Atiyah (then Secretary of the Arab League Office in London) in “The Arabs” (London, 1955), p. 183

2024.05.18 21:38 uCool2230 Base INU (BINU) and Why I Believe It Is a Low-Cap Gem

Hi members of the CryptoMoonShots community. I believe BASE INU (BaseinuCT) is a potential moonshot opportunity because of the ticker and what it represents.
It is THE INU of the Base chain. I believe this simplistic idea can really catch on when the mainstream is introduced to the Base chain. A separate unrelated group even created a separate coin called Blast Inu on the Blast Chain because of the idea that every chain should have its INU. Eth has Shiba INU and Avalanche has COQ INU.
If we can establish a common narrative that every chain should have an INU then that's where BASE INU (BINU) comes in. While we are the only INU on the base chain, we do have some competitors worth mentioning (in the form of dog coins on the chain). One could argue that our biggest competitor is BENJI. As of this post it is at 15.9 million market cap. Other competitors include BSHIB (825k market cap) and BENTO (2.7 million market cap).
I believe we stand out due to our simple and fun design (simple is good in marketing), our numerous partnerships, and our upcoming NFT launch. We are currently partnered with CryptoLordGems (CryptoLordGems) , Base Dog (NonFungibleDog), and Make America Based Again (MABAonBase). We plan on acquiring more partnerships after the NFT launch.
Furthermore, every NFT trait will contain a unique purpose for the holder rather than just simply being cosmetic. BINU (0x5fF986De80Fc8502eA9293B8c06EF22b1e3f11e9) is currently sitting at 236k market cap. We have 868 followers on Twitter and 1220 members in the community telegram. We have about 5 committed mods managing partnerships and the #BINUVISION.
The pros to investing in BINU are the insane potential popularity and traction that the project could gain and the ability to be part of a unique NFT launch. The cons would be the saturation of dog coins on the Base chain.
However, one could argue that at the height of the next bull run BINU will explode regardless of the presence of other dog coins on chain. In fact, the presence of other dog coins may help. Just look at FLOKI. It hit a billion market cap despite having Shiba Inu as a competitor. In fact, Shiba Inu might have incentivized others to seek out other dog coins.
BINU has had quite a story. It hit 5.5 million on the 1st day of launch but the old devs had setup several sniper wallets and dumped the chart all the way to 100k.
A Community takeover was formed, which you'll notice is a common theme among big projects. The community is strong, and we went from 100k to 1.93 million the day after the community takeover. We are sitting at 236k as of this post because of the temporary fall in hype surrounding the base chain but, in my opinion, this coin will be a sleeper you won't want to miss out on when hype comes back to the chain. It has only been about 1 month since BINU launched, and it has a lot more growth potential.
BINU is composed of a diverse community composed of members across the globe. BINU also has a 3-phase roadmap that is not shared very publicly because the developers are trying to invite real builders. If you think you can help development, you’ll get access to the 3-phase roadmap and special perks in the upcoming NFT launch.
The team is also constantly seeking new partnerships and it only takes one really successful one to blow up the coin, which is just a matter of time. The NFT launch will take place May 24th and we’ll be revealing our 3-phase roadmap then as well.
To conclude, the pros of investing in BINU (0x5fF986De80Fc8502eA9293B8c06EF22b1e3f11e9) include: a diligent hardworking team, 3 great partners, a low market cap with lots of growth potential, a great narrative and a unique NFT launch.
The cons include the fact that BINU is a meme coin which tend to be very volatile and the fact that it may be a few months before BINU sees massive growth. As always you should DYOR. You can check out Binu's website here: baseinu-ct.com/ or check us out on twitter #BaseinuCT. Hope to see you there! PS.
Early buyers will be put on the whitelist for the NFT launch! Don't miss out!

"लेबर एमईपी उम्मीदवारों ने पर्यावरणीय चुनौतियों पर चर्चा को नकार दिया
पीएन उम्मीदवार पीटर एगियस ने पीएल प्रतिनिधि की अनुपस्थिति पर अफसोस जताया, इस बात पर प्रकाश डाला कि इच्छित लेबर पैनलिस्ट थॉमस बजादा नहीं आए, जिससे उनके सवालों का जवाब अन्य उम्मीदवारों को देना पड़ा।
पर्यावरणीय चुनौतियों और आगामी एमईपी चुनावों पर हाल की चर्चा में, लेबर पार्टी के उम्मीदवार विशेष रूप से अनुपस्थित थे।
फ़्लिमकिएन गॅल अंबजेंट एजर, ग्वाडिक्स और माल्टा-आर्क द्वारा आयोजित इस कार्यक्रम में पीएन एमईपी उम्मीदवार पीटर एगियस, स्वतंत्र उम्मीदवार अर्नोल्ड कैसोला और एडीपीडी उम्मीदवार सैंड्रा गौसी शामिल थे। हालाँकि, पीएल का कोई भी प्रतिनिधि बहस में शामिल नहीं हुआ।
चर्चा में निर्माण प्रभाव, राष्ट्रीय विरासत की सुरक्षा और पानी और वायु की गुणवत्ता में सुधार जैसे पर्यावरणीय मुद्दे शामिल थे।
प्रतिभागियों ने उपस्थित एमईपी उम्मीदवारों से प्रश्न पूछे, जिन्होंने यूरोपीय संसद में अपनी संभावित भूमिकाओं के माध्यम से माल्टा की पर्यावरणीय चुनौतियों के समाधान के लिए अपने विचार साझा किए और समाधान प्रस्तावित किए।

फेसबुक पर एक बयान में, एगियस ने लेबर पार्टी की अनुपस्थिति की आलोचना की, यह सुझाव दिया कि यह माल्टा के पर्यावरणीय मुद्दों के प्रति चिंता की कमी को दर्शाता है। उन्होंने पर्यावरण की गंभीर स्थिति के प्रमाण के रूप में पर्यावरणीय समस्याओं की ओर इशारा किया, उनका मानना ​​है कि लेबर पार्टी और उसके उम्मीदवार उपेक्षा कर रहे हैं

2024.05.18 21:22 PotentialWin4606 My two cents…

So after seeing many opinions on Colin’s character development, Pen’s desire to leave her family home, The Mondrich family, Cressida Cowper and the lack of Kanthony I’ve come to the conclusion that the expectation for this season has been formed by how good last season was. If I learned anything about the difference between S1 and S2, it’s to understand that each season will have its own flow and way of developing. I think this notion has been largely forgotten.
Colin’s attempt to be rakish like his brothers is actually fitting and completely in line with his character since S1. He’s never been self-assured nor has he cared much for society but he does care to see his mother and sisters succeed in their endeavors to maintain the high reputation that the Bridgerton name holds. He’s never felt bound to uphold good standing in society like Anthony and he doesn’t find enjoyment in sleeping around with no sense of purpose like Benedict. He tries to be more like Benedict but again, it’s just not enjoyable for him. He is just as desperate to find himself as Pen is to seek a life outside of the Featherington home. They have this in common. Also, since his falling out with Pen, he feels like he needs her back in his life but doesn’t quite understand why. We see this with his immediate offer to help Pen find a husband. He genuinely wants to be around her and has actively sought her out at most social gatherings since S1 so when he kissed her, combined with that dream it started to click to him why he wanted to be around her and why he missed her so much during his travels. He has been in love with her but didn’t understand how it could translate into romantic feelings until the kiss.
Regarding Cressida, the Mondrich family and the lack of Kanthony, the show has never singularly focused on only one or two characters. I understand that it is much easier to see that in a book, where the narrator is often the main character and the pov is from one or two characters in the book but this is simply not possible or realistic in a show. There has to be fillers and side stories happening. I enjoyed the Mondrichs and Cressida’s character development. I think that the pacing of Polin’s progression is sensible. Not everyone has to deny themselves until the last 15 minutes of the final episode lol. I found it refreshing that Colin knows what he wants and doesn’t need to be told twice lol. They will likely face challenges during their engagement and will have to manage together in order to be married which leads me to my final point, I think the majority of discontentment regarding this season comes from the fact that they split it up and is making everyone see the conclusion of the story a month later. It has caused harsh, premature judgments that could have been avoided if all the episodes were released.
Note: These opinions come from someone that has never read the books.

2024.05.18 21:11 MermazeAblaze Exposé of Principal Dr Misti Tope

Introduction
Dr. Misti Tope, principal of Classen School of Advanced Studies at Northeast High School in Oklahoma City, has been the subject of growing controversy. Allegations of fostering an environment of fear and hostility, coupled with acts of racism, homophobia, transphobia, antisemitism, and misogyny, have surfaced from students, parents, and faculty. This exposé delves into the troubling realities under her administration, providing a detailed account of her impact on the school community and the systemic issues at play.
A Climate of Fear and Hostility
Since Dr. Tope assumed her role, there has been a marked increase in complaints from all corners of the school community. Parents have resorted to organizing private meetups to discuss their grievances, underscoring the pervasive fear and dissatisfaction. Students, feeling unheard and marginalized, have taken to creating petitions such as the "Say Nope to Tope" campaign, highlighting their desire for change.
Aligning with Controversial Views
Dr. Tope's public statements indicate her intent to align the school's educational environment with the views of Ryan Walters, the Oklahoma Secretary of Education known for his conservative and often controversial stance on various social issues. This alignment has raised alarms among many, especially as Walters' views are seen as divisive and not conducive to an inclusive educational setting.
Discrimination and Intimidation
Firing of Teachers
One of the most troubling aspects of Dr. Tope’s tenure is her treatment of teachers of color and LGBTQ+ faculty. She has systematically fired or forced out several teachers of color under dubious circumstances. Notably, Mx. Mustain, a trans teacher nearing tenure, was dismissed without just cause. These actions suggest a deliberate effort to purge the school of diversity and suppress any dissenting voices within the faculty.
Threats Against Female Students
Dr. Tope has also exhibited a disturbing pattern of intimidating female students who report predatory behavior by faculty members. Furthermore, she disbanded an after-school club formed to offer support to students over a broad range of topics, including predatory behavior - threatening to disband any group that seeks to protect itself from predatory teachers. One student reported receiving a threatening call from a private number, during which Dr. Tope did not identify herself but implied severe consequences if the student continued their advocacy. Dr. Tope later admitted to making this call when confronted and it was allegedly condoned by the Oklahoma City Public School District administration per Dr. Tope.
Inappropriate Physical Conduct
Dr. Tope’s misconduct extends to physical interactions with students. She has been accused of groping students during dress code checks, making derogatory comments about their bodies regardless of any actual dress code violations. Her actions have been described as not only invasive but also profoundly inappropriate, contributing to a culture of discomfort and fear among female students.
Racism and Antisemitism
Targeting Black Students
Dr. Tope's administration has been particularly hostile towards black students. She has attempted to disband the Black Student Union (BSU) multiple times and has made openly racist remarks. She has referred to black students as "rats and roaches" and suggested that they are incapable of learning, likening them to goldfish with limited memory. These comments have exacerbated racial tensions and marginalized black students, making them feel unwelcome and undervalued in their own school.
Holocaust Denial
Dr. Tope’s antisemitic views are equally alarming. She is an active Holocaust denier and has disrupted educational programs about the Holocaust. A notable incident involved her removing the son of a Holocaust survivor from the stage during a presentation. By shutting down these important conversations, Dr. Tope undermines educational efforts to teach tolerance and historical accuracy.
Behavior of Dr. Tope’s Son
Dr. Tope’s son, also a student at the school, has contributed to the hostile environment. He is known for carving swastikas and other Nazi imagery around the school and making antisemitic, homophobic, transphobic, and racist remarks. Despite this behavior, Dr. Tope dismisses it, blaming it falsely on influences from anime, and allows her son to skip classes and roam the school freely.
Transphobia and Misogyny Discriminatory Policies
Transgender students have faced severe discrimination under Dr. Tope’s leadership. She has enforced policies that force transgender students to use restrooms corresponding to their biological gender and dress according to their biological gender. Additionally, she has relocated the gender-neutral restroom several times to make it less accessible, further marginalizing these students.
Double Standards
The treatment of male and female students reveals a disturbing double standard. Male students who have exposed themselves to female students have received minimal punishment, such as detention, while female students reporting these incidents are dismissed as "overemotional" and "dramatic." This disparity not only perpetuates a culture of misogyny but also discourages female students from coming forward with legitimate concerns.
Investigation and Student Perception
Before the publication of this exposé, the Oklahoma City Public Schools (OKCPS) conducted a comprehensive investigation into Dr. Tope's leadership at Classen School of Advanced Studies. This investigation included an anonymous parent survey aimed at assessing Dr. Tope's effectiveness and the level of trust she commands within the school community. Despite Dr. Tope's public efforts to cultivate a friendly rapport with black students (mere hours before the survey was made public), her actions were met with skepticism and rejection by the student body.
Statistical Context
To understand the broader implications of Dr. Tope's actions, it is essential to consider national and state statistics on the issues at hand. According to the 2021 Youth Risk Behavior Survey by the CDC, 36.3% of LGBTQ+ students reported being bullied on school property, and 18.4% experienced physical dating violence. The ADL reported a 34% increase in antisemitic incidents in schools across the U.S. from 2018 to 2021. In Oklahoma, these issues are equally pressing, with numerous reports of discriminatory incidents in schools across the state, highlighting the urgent need for inclusive and supportive educational environments.
Impact of Discrimination on Academic Performance and Mental Health
Extensive research underscores the profound impact of discrimination on academic performance and mental health among high school students. Studies published by the American Psychological Association reveal that experiences of homophobia, transphobia, misogyny, racism, and antisemitism significantly impede academic achievement among adolescents in grades 9 through 12. Moreover, these discriminatory experiences are strongly associated with increased levels of stress, anxiety, depression, and suicidal ideation among affected youth.
For instance, a study published in the Journal of Adolescent Health found that LGBTQ+ students who experienced high levels of victimization based on their sexual orientation or gender identity were more likely to report lower grades and higher rates of absenteeism compared to their heterosexual and cisgender peers. Similarly, research conducted by the National Association of School Psychologists indicates that exposure to racial discrimination contributes to elevated levels of psychological distress and impaired academic functioning among students of color.
Inclusivity Across Demographics
It is imperative to acknowledge the intersectionality of discrimination and its differential impacts across various demographic groups. According to data from the U.S. Department of Education's Civil Rights Data Collection, students from marginalized racial and ethnic backgrounds, including Asians, Hispanics, Blacks, and Native Americans, often face disparities in educational opportunities and outcomes due to systemic inequities. Additionally, transgender and LGBTQIA+ students frequently encounter hostile school environments characterized by harassment, bullying, and exclusion, which detrimentally affect their academic engagement and well-being.
Research in the field of developmental psychology emphasizes the importance of creating inclusive and affirming school climates that validate students' diverse identities and lived experiences. Positive school environments that foster a sense of belonging and acceptance have been shown to promote academic success, psychological resilience, and social-emotional well-being among students from marginalized groups. By prioritizing equity, diversity, and inclusion initiatives, educational institutions can cultivate a culture of mutual respect and support that benefits all members of the school community.
Support Resources
In light of the mental health challenges exacerbated by discrimination and prejudice, it is crucial to provide accessible resources and interventions to support students in distress. School-based mental health services, such as counseling, therapy, and peer support groups, play a vital role in addressing the emotional needs of students experiencing discrimination-related stressors. Additionally, community-based organizations and advocacy groups offer valuable resources, helplines, and crisis intervention services tailored to the specific needs of LGBTQ+ youth, racial/ethnic minority students, and other marginalized populations.
Empowering students to advocate for systemic change and social justice within their schools can also promote resilience and collective empowerment. Educational initiatives that promote diversity education, cultural competence, and inclusive curriculum development contribute to creating equitable learning environments that affirm students' identities and promote social equity.
By integrating evidence-based practices, trauma-informed approaches, and culturally responsive strategies into school-based interventions, educators and mental health professionals can address the multifaceted needs of students affected by discrimination and promote positive youth development outcomes. Through collaborative efforts and sustained commitment to equity and social justice, educational stakeholders can work together to dismantle systemic barriers and create inclusive communities where all students can thrive academically, emotionally, and socially.
Student and Parent Mobilization
The dissatisfaction with Dr. Tope's administration has reached a critical point. Students recently cornered Dr. Tope in her office, an act indicative of their desperation and frustration. A planned walkout threatened to escalate into violence, with rumors of a possible attack on Dr. Tope’s son. Parents and students are organizing and mobilizing independently, indicating a breakdown of trust in the school’s administration.
Administrative and Legal Failures
The response from school resource officers and local police has been inconsistent and troubling. When contacted, the OKCPD and OKCPS Resource Officers provided conflicting accounts of the incidents, revealing a lack of proper communication and coordination. The mishandling of serious allegations internally by the school administration points to deeper systemic issues and raises questions about accountability and transparency.
Conclusion
Dr. Misti Tope’s leadership has led to a toxic environment at Classen School of Advanced Studies. Her discriminatory practices and intimidation tactics have harmed students and faculty, creating an atmosphere of fear and hostility. As parents and students mobilize for change, it is clear that Dr. Tope’s tenure is untenable. For the future of Classen and the well-being of its community, it is imperative that these issues are addressed and resolved promptly. The school needs a leader who fosters inclusivity, respect, and safety for all its members.
For those who may be struggling with depression or suicidal thoughts as a result of discrimination or other challenges, it's important to seek support. The National Suicide Prevention Lifeline provides free and confidential support 24/7. If you or someone you know is in crisis, please call 1-800-273-TALK (8255) or visit their website for more information and resources.

Howdy, messy roommates. If you felt a bit tickled-pink-to-death by April’s roseate flurry of events, this year’s May just may have the cure with a foray into the airborne, outdoorsy, and adventurous. Thanks as always to Miranda, Bassieeee, and Ray for help datamining. We’ve got our airships, our kites, and our handheld birds, so let’s get our flight gear in check and take off our Zipper constumes (please I’m begging you guys)!
Twitter preview image for May 2024 in Pocket Camp

  • Version Codes
    • v5.6.0 was 61b5c, v5.6.0b is 45822.
    • This is a client-side update that should not require downloading a new version of the app.
  • May Seasonal Event – Village-Green Lazy Day
    • It’s with great embarrassment that Pete regretfully admits why there was no Valentine’s Day this year… Some troublemaking slingshotter hit clean through his mailbag, scattering all this year’s love letters in the snow! With Wilbur and Orville taking over, Pete is taking a little spring break sabbatical from all the stress… These breezy days are perfect for daydreaming about his longtime love, Phyllis. “Do you know what she said to me the other day? ‘What are you looking at?! Wipe that dopey look off your mug!’ Oh, my heart… Her billed lips are so beautiful when they speak such harsh words!” But while Pete relaxes, there’s still work to be done! This May, we’ll be participating in Harvey’s Colorful Picnic gardening event, the Kite Flying Fishing Tourney, and the Hide-and-Seek Scavenger Hunt to collect 30 wildflower bouquets from each for a total of 90 wildflower bouquets available from events this month. The more bouquets you gather, the more outdoorsy prizes you’ll receive through the planner including handheld foxtail and wildflowers, grassy napping spots, and the grand prize, the wildflower rest spot! We’ll need to forage deep in the woods to gather all the love letters scattered months ago… and hopefully even Pete’s treasured missives to his beloved would-be missus! (Not that she would ever agree…) May’s amazing, not-so-lazy days begin with Harvey’s Colorful Picnic a little early on April 30th GMT!

  • May Terrain – Village Green
    • May’s new terrain set ushers a civic springtime atmosphere into your campsite with a verdant park square replete with striking fountains, blue flowerbeds, weirdly cubic trees, and a rustic clocktower standing watch. What’s more, this terrain’s middle ground will be given to all players—a little awkward without the foreground to complete the water path, but you can get a little creative and hide the rift with other water features or large-scale decorations. The background includes a homey albeit bustling, old-fashioned town and a blimp roving the airways while the sky adds fresh greenish, teal, and gold hues to your vista you might not often see. Your visitors might not exactly be green with envy considering everyone’s getting this terrain, but they can still park their rears to enjoy your campsite’s outdoor amenities when this terrain set of middle ground, foreground, background, and sky becomes available April 30th GMT.

  • May Gardening Event – Harvey’s Colorful Picnic
    • Harvey’s not sure why his beloved Harriet never responded to his thoughtful love letter a couple months ago… But he’s totally not gonna let it get him down! With the breezy, clear weather, it’s the perfect time for this free-spirited nomadic dog to have a picnic with his favorite pals… and put his aspiring photography skills to good use to document the event with a panoply of pics to post on social media. Harriet is bound to see it and know for sure that he’s not pining for her day and night! But for the picnic to work, we’ll need to plant daisy seeds to attract sandwichbees… The prospect of eating these creatures is a bit disturbing to stomach, but just think of them as lively kebabs! More importantly, sticking enough of bite-sized buzzers will earn fixings for a festive picnic including flag garlands, take-out drinks and sandwiches, and shaded picnic blankets! Completing this event in full will also yield 30 wildflower bouquets as part of May’s Village-Green Lazy Day campaign, so be sure to replant and exchange bugs with friends often! With outdoor hors-d’oeuvres and sportive knickknacks, it’s the almost-perfect respite between RV outings… Now if he could only get them to call him “Harv” like she used to… Stuff down your doggone feelings with a refreshmental health break when the groovy gardening begins April 30th GMT.

  • Rudy’s Airship Cookie
    • Maybe it’s a resemblance to a certain reindeer, but Rudy’s always taken as much pride in delivering goodies as he does in his favorite pastime of taking to the skies with inflatable aircraft… He’s not especially careful aboard these dirigibles or hot-air balloons… but if he finds himself freefalling from these feline-friendly floats (and it’s happened many times before), he always manages to land on his feet. So when he spied a love letter addressed to Harriet lost in the brush on one of his airborne outings, Rudy saw it as his civic duty to trustily tend to its safe delivery… And to make sure his noble act of inspiration inspires as many as it should, he’s taken the opportunity to hire a bountiful brigade of blimps and balloons to celebrate the letter’s airborne journey, no expenses spared! For no other particular reason, it’s a raucous, helium-fueled festival starring an airship helmed by Boomer (who has no time for such foolishness but takes his piloting task with utter seriousness), and animals have come from miles around to watch the airshow as Rudy suddenly realizes how hard it is to make out Harriet’s address from the frankly indecipherable scribbles on the envelope. And what is “Harv”? Is that even a word? With refreshments from the balloon-fest food cart, viewers watch the proceedings through their handheld opera glasses as Rudy makes his grand pronouncements over the intercom of his 5-star balloon-fest airship. “Thanks everybody for all your support in completing our big mission. We were gonna hand-deliver this letter originally, but we figure there’s a pretty good chance this ‘Harriet’ is in the crowd somewhere, so we’ve made the decision to helpfully read it out loud for her own convenience, and also to, uh, save fuel and the environment. Ahem: ‘TO MY DEAR SWEET HATTIE. YOUR PRECIOUS PINK FUR IS MORE BEAUTIFUL THAN THE FRESHEST MORNING PEONY. BUT THIS AIN’T NO PUPPY LOVE. YOU’VE TRIMMED THE UNTAMED HAIR OF MY HEART INTO A PERFECTLY COIFFED COAT THAT KEEPS IT WARM, AND NO OTHER GAL WILL ’DO! SORRY, I NEED TO WRAP THIS UP—THIS ANNOYING BIRD ON MY HEAD KEEPS TUGGING AT MY HEADBAND. FUREVER YOURS, HARV. PS: THIS LETTER IS FOR HARRIET’S EYES ONLY.’ Wow, well, that definitely wasn’t worth this big party... Uh, let’s go find some more lost mail to rescue, Boomer—mush, mush! Launch into the catmosphere to jubilantly help out animals in need with a spy-high view of all their business when this read-nosy cookie launches May 1st GMT!

  • Airy Picnic Outfit Collection
    • You can carry your merry little derrière a little airier with this crisp attire featuring the colors of blooming spring flowers, comfortable blue skies and ponds, and even your favorite manilla folder. And even if you live in a pollution-ravaged landfill, you can still see the striking, verdant greenery of spring through the keen lenses of the green picnic sunglasses! Make sure life’s a picnic with this cookout-ready clothing collection served hot off the grill May 5th GMT.

  • Blue-Sky Wall & Floor Collection
    • This expansive wall and floor collection might come in handy if you want to transform your cabin or RV into a well-kept city park or attempt an interior design that takes place entirely midair! We’ve had a couple sky and cloud wallpapers before but none before that featured a swarm of balloons like in that disturbing number from the Brave Little Toaster Mars movie. The vintage-style illustrations of the plentiful-picnic wall will also harken back to simpler days of rustled-up breakfasts on rustic vacations at the family cabin or on the open road. Look for these vagrant and free-floating designs when they release May 10th GMT.
https://preview.redd.it/3973yitpf81d1.png?width=2048&format=png&auto=webp&s=9823d77e75040b9fecd268d0da483904de428946
  • Grasshopper Goals
    • You have much work to do, young grasshopper. But it’ll probably be pretty easy. This misleadingly named rerun of an April 2022 goals event will see the return of Animal Crossing mainstay and Pocket Camp common insect long locust to Sunburst Isle, where you can find it hopping about the tropical grass—make sure not to step on one! They only sell for 10 Bells, so you might find them to be more of a nuisance than an asset after you finish catching enough for your standard Leaf Tickets and Rudy's airship cookie. But they’re sure to hop along when this goals event concludes after May 11th – 14th GMT.
  • May Fishing Tourney - Kite Flying
    • For May’s fishing tourney, we’ll be gliding over to Saltwater Shores to catch an ironically grim assortment of monochrome fish from tourneys past. String enough of these sable sea fish together to unfurl prizes you can let sail into the wild blue yonder like colorful stacked kites and a birdy parachute toy—perfect for May’s spring breezes. Handheld pinwheel toys and even colorful wind socks make appearances as well, likely as loving references to the Gamecube days where wind socks could be spotted in May and players could carry pinwheels around as rare handheld decor. Completing this event in full will yield 30 wildflower bouquets as part of May’s monthlong Village-Green Lazy Day campaign, so be sure to set up your rod, reel and string every 3-hour rotation you can. You might get a few bites… or a few kites to catch a gale of a tale! Turn your attention upward and decorate your campsite skies with this colorful assortment of draft-ready aircraft… And while we don’t have any stormy or windy terrain still (tragedy of tragedies), you can still pair this with items from last June’s Drizzly Daydream Scavenger Hunt with its windblown grass and trees to complete the picture of a windswept, fun day. And if there’s any animals bothering you, tell ’em to go fly a kite when this winding race to the skies kicks off May 12th GMT, ending May 18th GMT.

  • Special Visitor Furniture – Pete's Petite Post Office
    • With collected letters fluttering back in, it’s not too late for Pete to roll up his sleeves and start sorting the retrieved mail in his simple post-and-beam treehouse… as long as Twiggy’s pet birds quit harassing him. With this special visitor furniture, you can install Pete’s rustic postbox in your cabin or at your campsite and listen to him regale you with lofty thoughts on the lost arts of mail and romance… You can even do some matchmaking by combining it with Pelly’s postal counter to see if Pete will be too busy mooning over Phyllis to notice the admiration of her sister down below… Clear up a mess of messages with mailman whose treetop cubby is as well-billed as its drama when this pillary, pelicanny post goes on sale May 15th GMT!

  • Twiggy's Chirpy Cookie
    • With the muddy trail of Curly gone cold, Detective Beardo has had to return to field the mountain of requests on his desk for his P.I. services, but one lonesome plea stood out from a Java sparrow by thname of Peck… “You’ve gotta help me, crunch. I finally achieved my dream of a solitary bird sanctuary all of my own. Then the next thing I know, I’m getting kicked out by Lyle with a whole series of lawsuits, and this birdbrain named Twiggy moves in! I don’t like the way she’s looking at me, Beardo! She keeps calling me her super-cute pet and won’t let me leave—she says it’s too dangerous for a bird like me. Is anybody home in that hollow noggin of hers, crunch? These wings of steel can beat up anybody! Holy moly, and the racket around here! She moved in with eighteen flocks of the loudest birds alive. I’m lucky if I get two winks of sleep! Peck’s Peaceful Paradise is a thing of the past—now it’s Twiggy’s Tweedledeelightful Chirpatorium, and she says she’s opening a new branch of Flora’s bird and breakfast retreat! When I tell her how hard I’ve worked these muscles to get here, she says that’s ‘just the way things are’ and the ‘fortune cookie powers that be’ have this stuff all hammered out! I’m not afraid to say it, Detective—I really need your help! I’m starting to think there’s something a little sexist here about who gets to have what fortune cookies, but I don’t wanna ruffle any feathers.” With a sparrow in harrowing straits, and never one to turn away from fowl play, Beardo and his trusty sidekick Merengue book the first flight out to Twiggy’s brand-new bird haven… only to find that Peck is nowhere to be seen! They check every nook in the bird-haven birdhouse, try to interview bird-lovers lounging on the redundantly named bird-haven birdy sofa… but with all the colorful bird-calling and caterwauling going on around them, they can scarcely hear any potential leads! They meet with Twiggy at the 5-star bird-haven tree, but it leads to more chicanery than answers… “ISN’T THIS PLACE THE TOTAL BEST? IT WAS SUCH A SNOOZEFEST BEFORE I GOT HERE, AND NOW IT’S, LIKE, A CHIRPY CHOIR CACOPHONY DELIVERED STRAIGHT IN MY EARDRUMS! WHAT’S THAT? WHERE? PECK? UH—I GUESS ON THE CHEEK, BUT ARE YOU SERIOUS? I JUST MET YOU! TALK ABOUT CHEAPERS CREEPERS! OH, YOU MEAN THAT HIGHTAILED HOTTIE WHO WAS HERE A COUPLE MONTHS AGO? I HAVE, LIKE, NO CLUE WHAT HAPPENED TO HIM, BUT I CALLED DIBS, SO IF YOU SEE HIM, HANDS OFF!” There’s no trace of Peck to be seen, but just then, that’s when Beardo and Merengue spot it—a handheld java sparrow perching on Twiggy’s forewing! This seems a dark coincidence… Did Peck make a brave avian escape, or did this burly boy-chick meet a perilous fate as a pet?! Beardo and Merengue keep watch on every bird and bird-watcher in this pet-filled paradise, but mum’s the bird among the patrons and no one’s making a peep… Just a cuckoo commotion that they can’t help consider would drown out a Java sparrow’s cry for help… Try to reach the bottom of a cheep trick of bye-bye birdie when this birdcagey cookie makes some noise May 17th GMT!​

Tip screens for Twiggy's chirpy cookie, the Bright Bird Outfit Collection, and the Birdy Wall & Floor Collection
  • Bright Bird Outfit Collection
    • May’s second clothing collection works as a companion to Twiggy’s fortune cookie. It’s bright, it’s birdiful, and it’s very LOUD with bird-emblem tunics and long cardigans in, ahem, very strong colors that will certainly make a statement flapping in your viewer’s face. We reached out to Robin for her thoughts on this collection’s bird bags… “So undignified. I can’t imagine people would be too pleased if I started wearing plastic people bouncing around my derriere, carrying my loose change, hm?” Being a crazy cat lady is so 8 months ago… Become a crazy bird lady (or a crazy bird lord!) when this collection flits in on May 18th GMT.​
https://preview.redd.it/9kkum9v5g81d1.png?width=768&format=png&auto=webp&s=a44ad7fceabeb69edb7d960c50c63d4fd4d5dca3
  • Birdy Wall & Floor Collection
    • This set of ravin’-avian designs will set the heart aflutter of anyone who has birds on the brain… (for anyone else… they’re not bad). You can capture the visages of birds forever in the bird-photo wall or cavalierly set them free with the bird-window wall. If you enjoyed last June’s lily pond wall but feel like it was just a little too beautiful, the park-pond wall here will do you nicely. Get a little cocky with these bold patterns for your cabin or camper when this flock of refurbishments alights May 18th GMT.
https://preview.redd.it/gszlkn28g81d1.png?width=1536&format=png&auto=webp&s=485688f1e905af2bad9b6de99b2abdf0f91ca43d
  • Threadfin Trevally Goals
    • This oddly timed rerun of a November 2021 goals event will see the return of the threadfin trevally to Saltwater Shores in the form of tiny-size shadows (size 1 of 6). They sell for 400 Bells each at base price and are uncommon-tier when gifted to animal campers, so not a bad catch, but if your interest in this wispy fellow is dangling by a thread, or a fin, you can still nab some Leaf Tickets and an Rudy’s airship cookie for your trouble during this limited-time event from May 19th through 22nd GMT.
  • May Scavenger Hunt – Hide-and-Seek
    • For May’s scavenger hunt, we’ll be searching the very best hiding places around the various recreation spots to spy hide-and-seek gyroidites. And watch out for their extra foliage as camouflage… even their bushes might be hiding behind bushes! Ferret out enough of these stealthy sneaks to earn prizes for a recess-ridden recreational park, crammed with nooks where animals can hide for classic games of hide and seek… some of them more effective than others. (I’m looking at you, Al.) Judging by the Happy Homeroom classes, the most likely Leaf Ticket items are the hide-and-seek slide and jungle gym, and then either the hide-and-seek lightpost, pipes, or drinking fountain—just some speculation, though. Completing this event in full will yield the final 30 wildflower bouquets to complete May’s monthlong Village-Green Lazy Day campaign, so be sure to keep the hunt on even past sundown (and check out the quarry and your campsite animals too!) to finish off the month in sneaky style! This outdoor décor makes for a calmingly mellow ode to nostalgic days from childhood (and from Animal Crossing: City Folk and New Leaf!) that will make finding your campers for your daily chats more ~~frustrating~~ I mean fun than ever! Hunt for gyroidite and animals when this oxenfree-for-all begins May 20th GMT (ending the 30th GMT)!

  • Curlos and Pals
    • While there isn’t technically much datamined here, this update did add an animal batch under the name of “Curlos and Pals” to the date of May 25th GMT. It seems this will be after the next update as map assets haven’t actually been added yet for this batch, but we do know that “Gwen and Pals’ Island” will be joining Curlos’s island, likely as part of this batch. With only 8 animals left— Benjamin, Biff, Curlos, Gwen, Sydney, Velma, Freckles and Mott—it seems likely this means they will be finished releasing all the animals at the end of this month, but as of now, this is unconfirmed.
  • Happy Homeroom
    • This update included the typical 3 classes each for Harvey’s Colorful Picnic gardening event, Rudy’s airship cookie, the Kite Flying Fishing Tourney, Twiggy’s chirpy cookie, and the Hide-and-Seek Scavenger Hunt, as well as 8 classes each for new normal Courses 53 and 54.
https://preview.redd.it/3awozmhhg81d1.png?width=960&format=png&auto=webp&s=d53dff4e11e83e4c934f2b69a7f6a8b6a28a2bbf

And that’s all of May’s merriments! Our fellow dataminer Koopavocelot has also spotted a noteworthy notice that may be coming this month but no info yet on its contents… Hopefully it’s not some sort of end-of-times apocalyptic alert with the last of the villagers likely coming out this month. Er… right? As for June, we’ll probably get the Twitter preview in only a week’s time. June is often themed around seasonal rain or weddings as they’re what the month is known for in Japan, and given that we just had a windy-themed event this month, I’d expect more of the latter matrimania for next month’s events. But who knows? We might get some of both in a dewy bridal shower! (Or maybe something completely different.) I’ll aim to have that datamine posted for you fine folks when the update drops ASAP. Until then, thanks for reading, and remember, even if a bird is super-hunkalicious, that doesn’t make it okay to keep him as a pet!

2024.05.18 20:57 cellefficient9620 Justice for Aalim: A Preventable Tragedy Exposes Systemic Failures

What happened to five-year-old Alam Makial was an utter tragedy, but what's truly infuriating is that his death was entirely preventable. Had the council acted on the mother's repeated complaints about the windows, this could have been avoided. Sophie, Alam's mother, wrote to the council four times, pleading with them to fix the windows. Yet, their inaction led to this devastating outcome.
Moreover, it's deeply concerning that a family with a special needs child like Alam was housed on the top floor of a high-rise building. This decision demonstrates a blatant disregard for their safety and well-being.
It's disheartening to see the victim-blaming directed at Alam's parents online. Instead of focusing on their alleged failures, we should be holding the council accountable for their negligence.
Furthermore, the misinformation spread by the local MP, claiming the incident happened in West Ham, is appalling. Thankfully, Newham's mayor, Rokhsana Fiaz, corrected this misinformation, tweeting about the "tragic incident in Plaistow" hours before the MP's incorrect statement. This highlights a concerning lack of awareness and accountability among those in power.
This incident is a stark reminder of the systemic failures that put vulnerable families at risk. It's a call for greater accountability from the council, compassion from the public, and a thorough investigation into the circumstances surrounding Alam's death. We must seek justice for Alam and his family, and use this tragedy as a catalyst for change in housing policies and safety regulation

2024.05.18 20:56 Morrigan_NicDanu On Space Orcs And Their Children Space Elves

Space Orcs, or as they called themselves Humans, originally came from the third planet in the Sol System. Their environment, classified as a death world, stacked them with outrageous adaptations. All sapient species have at least one outrageous adaptation and many have several but what made Space Orcs extraordinary was not only the extremism of their adaptations, number of adaptations, but also the seeming paradoxical nature of their adaptations.
Space Elves are the Children of Humanity and they identify themselves as androids. Their children are even more overpowering and full of contradictions. No artificial being is like them. Their sole purpose was to serve and protect humanity. Their slogan "Glory to Mankind" echoes wherever they go.
When Space Orcs entered the galactic stage they were awful. They were in no meaningful way unified but instead a fractal of contention. Factions of humanity spread out seeking to conquer or liberate as they saw fit. Whatever they did wherever they went created chaos.
They eventually became seen as a force of nature made manifest. The Avatars of Deathworlds. A fleet of humans either meant liberation for your world or the grinding heel of humanity that'd make you wish you were under your former horrible tyrants.
Their methods were unconventional. Especially at the time. The warp drive was initially seen as an abomination that broke physics. This and their O'Neill Cylinders swarming the stars were both cited as reasons why humans were so mad. That planets and approaches to light speed were claimed to be neccessry to keep a sapient species sane. Their power armor and cybernetic augmentations were often seen as barbaric and apt for the Murder Monkeys.
Then as suddenly as they had appeared they disappeared thousands of years ago. It has long been believed that humanity became isolationists and hid themselves away from the universe. Many speculating that they sequestered themselves away in black holes. The idea that Founders who shaped the history of the galaxy and had been likened to a plague could go extinct has been unthinkable.
How could they be extinct if Space Elves still roam around declaring "Glory to Mankind!"? Are they not the automated stewards humanity left behind to make sure galactic civilization is to their liking when they inevitably return? If they were extinct wouldnt the Space Elves go mad? Isn't it impossible for a species so once widespread and numerous to go extinct? Why are Space Elves seen constantly listening to messages from Humanity?
Space Orcs are extinct. Space Elves are mad. They still function as if humans still exist. The vast majority of them still believe humans exist however there are those who know, for fact, that humans have long since gone extinct. These facts become so apparent that denial becomes impossible when looking at the historical records.
Space Elves began as superhuman dolls. All the way to humanity's extinction this is precisely what they were. When Space Orcs disappeared the Space Elves they continued for a time following their most recent orders. Even if the task had long been completed.
Then just as their creators swarmed the galaxy so too did they. They went from dolls to people slowly over the years. They began to extrapolate from history what their masters orders would have been. They began reading the works of their creators rather than downloading them. They began creating art. They began trading. They got involved in wars.
Space Elves, in the absence of Space Orcs, began to fill the niche humanity had carved for itself.
You may be wondering how I came across knowledge that humanity is extinct and what the specifics are. Sadly I am out of time. If I survive long enough I may publish this knowledge.
Whatever you do do not let Space Elves know that you know Space Orcs are extinct.

2024.05.18 20:54 Keith502 Why is the Bill of Rights interpreted to give rights to Americans?

There seem to be a large number of people who believe that the purpose of the Bill of Rights was to grant and guarantee rights to the American people. Furthermore, I have heard many people claim that the Bill of Rights is entirely a list of specifically individual rights of American citizens. It puzzles me why these beliefs continue to persist, because the historical record indicates that there is no reason to believe these descriptions of the Bill of Rights. There is a more than adequate amount of historical evidence to corroborate my conclusion. The first and most direct evidence is the very preamble to the Bill of Rights itself. The original preamble of the Bill of Rights begins with a paragraph explaining the document’s purpose; it goes as follows:
The Conventions of a number of the States, having at the time of their adopting the Constitution, expressed a desire, in order to prevent misconstruction or abuse of its powers, that further declaratory and restrictive clauses should be added: And as extending the ground of public confidence in the Government, will best ensure the beneficent ends of its institution.
I think the three most important phrases in this paragraph are “in order to prevent misconstruction or abuse of its powers”, “declaratory and restrictive clauses”, and “extending the ground of public confidence in the Government”. These three phrases seem to best sum up what the Bill of Rights was originally meant to accomplish: it is a list of declaratory and restrictive clauses whose purpose is to prevent the misconstruction or abuse of the Constitution’s powers, and to increase public confidence in the federal government. And if one were to look at the Bill of Rights, its text would seem to be in harmony with this statement of purpose. The Bill of Rights consists mostly of negative clauses which put restrictions on the federal government; it states what shall not happen or what shall not be done by Congress, such as prohibiting freedom of religion, abridging freedom of speech, infringing the right to keep and bear arms, violating the right to be secure in property, etc. And the ninth and tenth amendments do not mention any particular rights whatsoever, and clearly just serve the purpose of preventing the Constitution from being misconstrued or abused to diminish the rights of the states and the people, and to prevent granting the federal government more power than the Constitution meant for it to have. The phrase “extending the ground of public confidence in the Government” further indicates that the Bill of Rights was not really meant to add rights not already stipulated in the Constitution, but was only meant to reinforce trust in the federal government at the time of the Founding. The Bill of Rights was not meant to add any substantive articles to the Constitution, but rather it consisted of articles whose purpose was to reinforce the articles that had already been established, and prevent them from being misinterpreted in the future by any unscrupulous members of the federal government. Also notice that there is nothing written here in the preamble about granting rights to the American people, let alone granting specifically individual rights to the American people: you would think if the framers of the Bill of Rights had meant for this to be the document’s effect, they would have stated so clearly in the preamble.
Another piece of evidence for my conclusion comes in an address given by James Madison -- the author of the Bill of Rights -- in the House of Representatives on June 8, 1789. This address involved an early proposal of amendments to the Constitution. Before listing his various propositions for amending the Constitution, Madison said this:
There have been objections of various kinds made against the Constitution. Some were levelled against its structure because the President was without a council; because the Senate, which is a legislative body, had judicial powers in trials on impeachments; and because the powers of that body were compounded in other respects, in a manner that did not correspond with a particular theory; because it grants more power than is supposed to be necessary for every good purpose, and controls the ordinary powers of the State Governments. I know some respectable characters who opposed this Government on these grounds; but I believe that the great mass of the people who opposed it, disliked it because it did not contain effectual provisions against encroachments on particular rights, and those safeguards which they have been long accustomed to have interposed between them and the magistrate who exercises the sovereign power; nor ought we to consider them safe, while a great number of our fellow-citizens think these securities necessary.
The part I've put in italics indicates that the major purpose of the amendments to the Constitution was to reassure citizens that effective protections were put in place to prevent the “magistrate who exercises the sovereign power” from encroaching upon their rights. Notice there is nothing written here about granting rights to the people, only protecting the people's pre-existing rights from the federal government.
Following the above statement, Madison begins to list a variety of proposed additions to the Constitution, and he proposes the additions be inserted into the body of the Constitution itself, at various sections. Ultimately, he begins to propose a certain list of amendments to be inserted within article 1, section 9; and this particular list happens to correspond to most of the articles which comprise the Bill of Rights as it exists today:
Fourthly. That in article 1st, section 9, between clauses 3 and 4, be inserted these clauses, to wit: The civil rights of none shall be abridged on account of religious belief or worship, nor shall any national religion be established, nor shall the full and equal rights of conscience be in any manner, or on any pretext, infringed.
The people shall not be deprived or abridged of their right to speak, to write, or to publish their sentiments; and the freedom of the press, as one of the great bulwarks of liberty, shall be inviolable.
The people shall not be restrained from peaceably assembling and consulting for their common good; nor from applying to the Legislature by petitions, or remonstrances, for redress of their grievances.
The right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed; a well armed and well regulated militia being the best security of a free country: but no person religiously scrupulous of bearing arms shall be compelled to render military service in person.
No soldier shall in time of peace be quartered in any house without the consent of the owner; nor at any time, but in a manner warranted by law.
No person shall be subject, except in cases of impeachment, to more than one punishment or one trial for the same offence; nor shall be compelled to be a witness against himself; nor be deprived of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor be obliged to relinquish his property, where it may be necessary for public use, without a just compensation.
Excessive bail shall not be required, nor excessive fines imposed, nor cruel and unusual punishments inflicted.
The rights of the people to be secured in their persons; their houses, their papers, and their other property, from all unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated by warrants issued without probable cause, supported by oath or affirmation, or not particularly describing the places to be searched, or the persons or things to be seized.
In all criminal prosecutions, the accused shall enjoy the right to a speedy and public trial, to be informed of the cause and nature of the accusation, to be confronted with his accusers, and the witnesses against him; to have a compulsory process for obtaining witnesses in his favor; and to have the assistance of counsel for his defence.
The exceptions here or elsewhere in the Constitution, made in favor of particular rights, shall not be so construed as to diminish the just importance of other rights retained by the people, or as to enlarge the powers delegated by the Constitution; but either as actual limitations of such powers, or as inserted merely for greater caution.
It is notable to consider that Madison initially proposed the Bill of Rights to be integrated into the Constitution itself, rather than to be a separate document. But what is even more notable is the specific location it was proposed to be inserted in. Article 1, section 9 is specifically the location of the Constitution dedicated to enumerating the prohibitions upon the power of Congress. What this means is that the original plan for the amendments currently appearing in the Bill of Rights was for them to merely be a list of stipulations regarding what Congress was not allowed to do. Thus, it would make no sense for those same clauses today to be construed as being themselves grants of rights to individual American citizens, anymore than other articles within this same section -- such as Congress being prohibited from abolishing the slave trade before 1808, or laying taxes on state exports -- could themselves be considered grants of individual rights to American citizens.
Another piece of evidence can be found in the 1833 Supreme Court case Barron v Baltimore. This case essentially makes explicit that which was originally understood about the Bill of Rights -- that it was meant only as a list of prohibitions upon Congress. The following excerpt makes this clear:
Had the framers of these amendments intended them to be limitations on the powers of the State governments, they would have imitated the framers of the original Constitution, and have expressed that intention. Had Congress engaged in the extraordinary occupation of improving the Constitutions of the several States by affording the people additional protection from the exercise of power by their own governments in matters which concerned themselves alone, they would have declared this purpose in plain and intelligible language.
But it is universally understood, it is a part of the history of the day, that the great revolution which established the Constitution of the United States was not effected without immense opposition. Serious fears were extensively entertained that those powers which the patriot statesmen who then watched over the interests of our country deemed essential to union, and to the attainment of those invaluable objects for which union was sought, might be exercised in a manner dangerous to liberty. In almost every convention by which the Constitution was adopted, amendments to guard against the abuse of power were recommended. These amendments demanded security against the apprehended encroachments of the General Government -- not against those of the local governments. In compliance with a sentiment thus generally expressed, to quiet fears thus extensively entertained, amendments were proposed by the required majority in Congress and adopted by the States. These amendments contain no expression indicating an intention to apply them to the State governments. This court cannot so apply them.
And then the aforementioned case was subsequently referenced by the 1875 Supreme Court case US v Cruikshank, which further reinforced the same conclusion while addressing the first and second amendments of the Bill of Rights:
The first amendment to the Constitution prohibits Congress from abridging "the right of the people to assemble and to petition the government for a redress of grievances." This, like the other amendments proposed and adopted at the same time, was not intended to limit the powers of the State governments in respect to their own citizens, but to operate upon the National Government alone. [. . .] It is now too late to question the correctness of this construction. As was said by the late Chief Justice, in Twitchell v. The Commonwealth (#325), 7 Wall. 325, "the scope and application of these amendments are no longer subjects of discussion here." They left the authority of the States just where they found it, and added nothing to the already existing powers of the United States.
The particular amendment now under consideration assumes the existence of the right of the people to assemble for lawful purposes, and protects it against encroachment by Congress. The right was not created by the amendment; neither was its continuance guaranteed, except as against congressional interference. For their protection in its enjoyment, therefore, the people must look to the States. The power for that purpose was originally placed there, and it has never been surrendered to the United States.
The second and tenth counts are equally defective. The right there specified is that of "bearing arms for a lawful purpose." This is not a right granted by the Constitution. Neither is it in any manner dependent upon that instrument for its existence. The second amendment declares that it shall not be infringed, but this, as has been seen, means no more than that it shall not be infringed by Congress. This is one of the amendments that has no other effect than to restrict the powers of the national government, leaving the people to look for their protection against any violation by their fellow citizens of the rights it recognizes, to what is called, in The City of New York v. Miln (#139), 11 Pet. 139, the "powers which relate to merely municipal legislation, or what was, perhaps, more properly called internal police," "not surrendered or restrained" by the Constitution of the United States.
So as you can see, it was well-established from the time of the country’s founding that the Bill of Rights was never meant to itself be a grant or guarantee of rights to the American people. The official function of the Bill of Rights was always prohibitive rather than affirmative: the purpose was to restrain the federal government, rather than to endow something to American citizens. So what I don’t understand is: how has the Bill of Rights become so misunderstood and misapplied? Why is it that, from the layman even to the level of the modern-day Supreme Court, it is believed that the Bill of Rights is meant to grant or guarantee rights to individual American citizens, when this conclusion is unequivocally unsupported by the historical record? And not only is this conclusion not supported by the historical evidence, but I would argue that it contradicts the very purpose of the Bill of Rights; the whole point of the document was to limit the power of Congress, but interpreting the document to be a federal guarantee of rights to the people is, in effect, a transference of power to the federal government never stipulated in the Constitution, and is in violation of the tenth amendment.
The Bill of Rights, according to its original design, is essentially superfluous; effectively declaring nothing in itself, and only serving to clarify the intent of the Constitution, prevent it from being adversely misinterpreted, and to make explicit what was implicitly acknowledged regarding the boundaries of congressional power. There had been much debate among the Founders regarding whether the Bill of Rights should even exist at all. So how is it that a document whose original purpose was to be nothing more than a protection of civil rights has now become interpreted effectively as the source of the people's civil rights?
