Naomi replies on Nov 18, 2020:

Hello there. There are always people who just can't or don't wish to get along with others - they're annoying. But it doesn't mean that we can ignore them or shoo them especially if you are the operator of a facility where you have to deal with the general public. As the operator of such a facility, you are obliged to provide them with support that meets their basic requirements so as to let them get on with it. You don't have to get at each other's throat. I have a nurse friend. Once she looked after a Muslim patient. He demanded that he needed to be accommodated in a separate room so that he could pray on his own. My friend told him "This is a hospital, not a hotel. You're treated according to your doctor's diagnosis and judgement and that includes in which room you should be kept. However, you're free to find a quiet corner or an unoccupied room in the building where I'm sure you can pray alone quietly." Sometimes, we all need that strength of my friend's. I don't like passive aggression.

Thanks John.

This "white fragility" thing.

GeeMac comments on Nov 11, 2020:

Robin DiAngelo’s nutty, woke theories have been thoroughly debunked, everywhere except among the woke-prongs who feed on identity politics. Ben Shapiro and others have shredded this nasty, divisive idea. This link from The Atlantic was written in July by John McWhorter, a black conservative, ...

Naomi replies on Nov 12, 2020:

Hello there. Thanks for the link. I also like Coleman Hughes. He is level-headed. After watching/listening to RD on white fragility several times, I have to say that her idea is crazy. Apparently, her book has been selling well - worrying. But then, I assume those who don't agree with her also read her book - know your enemy like.

Identity Politics is the latest game of the Socialists and it’s a dangerous game to play.

Naomi replies on Nov 12, 2020:

Hello. If one fails to get to know another as a person because they can't get over differences like race, nationality, gender, occupation, even appearance, there is something wrong with them, I think. Their mind has been poisoned by identity politics.

What questions do you have for a woman who left the Muslim religion and freed herself from the ...

Apostasy is punishable by death in some Islamic countries. I'm assuming she does not reside in one of those.

Hello. I think there is a flaw to the question.

And you spin it - that's circumference. 😂

GaryWitt comments on Nov 11, 2020:

If it were a dot then spinning it around a center would give circumference. Spinning the radius gives area.

Oh no. That must have been the straw that broke the camel's back. 😅

Naomi replies on Nov 10, 2020:

Hello Geofrank. Freethinker means to me a person who tries to look at a matter from different angles. A person who questions and rejects to settle with preconceived ideas, rhetoric, propaganda, etc. A person who examines both sides of an argument. A person who has the discipline, calmness and intellectual curiosity to seek to understand and engage opinions that are different from their own.

Point taken! 😂

GeeMac comments on Nov 8, 2020:

I’m not a fan of the Dems, however, the American system is unique in that power can shift every two years. The focus now must be on winning the 2022 midterms. No good can possibly come from re-fighting this election. It’s over. By all means, recount, investigate and confirm; but to blindly...

@pbuck0145 I can't talk as if I knew exactly what is going on in the academic/education field, let alone what is exactly going on in every single college and university in every single country/region in the world. If I need a heart operation, am I going to ask a fully qualified cardiothoracic surgeon to operate on my heart or someone who thinks they can operate on my heart because they read so many books and watched so many YouTube videos on how to do heart surgery? The answer is obvious. That's the drift I get from the meme. And this is just a meme. Be light-hearted about it. :)

@cRaZyTMG "No one has invited me to a "Biden Won" party (not that they would, even if it was worth celebrating). No one I interact with has mentioned an organized or even sponsored event." Same here. Only MSM have been reporting the US election day in day out. I go out with my dog and stop to talk to a few people everyday. Not being disrespectful, but we hardly talk about the US election apart from saying "I'm so fed up with this." "So, am I." Lol! Plus, the UK is yet to sort out Brexit.
