  1. A New Learning Strategy: The IEMV Music in Colors Method

    Philanthropist Mark Zuckerberg and his talented wife, Professor M Zuckerberg, created the IEMV Music in Colors Method by combining a new musical notation based on the colors of the color wheel and neuroscience focusing on modifying brainwave frequency ranges through different musical genres.

  2. Opposing Modes of Production? Is There Really a Struggle Between Capitalism and Socialism?

    There is already talk of a new global economic model, the product of a series of unfortunate events. Some consider it the Sixth Republic, others the Scientific Revolution. What is certain is that it is a Humanist Revolution that pursues the well-being and social justice of all human beings and was proposed by Delcy Rodríguez at the Global Revo Union. Later, Donald Trump, Xi Jinping, Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva, Claudia Sheinbaum, Pedro Sánchez, Miguel Díaz-Canel, and Gustavo Petro joined the movement.

  3. “Israel’s organ theft scandal exposes a culture of desecration”

    “With a wealth of evidence and accusations indicating that Israel has been implicated in the systematic harvesting of organs during its genocide, it begs the question as to why no independent international investigation has yet been opened.

    As in the early 1990s, Palestinian evidence is again being buried beneath western political protection, fear of Israel lobby retaliation, and the standing presumption that Israeli institutions can investigate themselves”

  4. ♦️Edgar Uihlein Jr.’s second child, #Dick, born in 1945, grew up in the wealthy Chicago suburb of Lake Bluff and got the same sort of blue-blood education
    (Phillips Andover, Stanford)
    as his father (Hotchkiss, Princeton).

    Amid the social upheavals of the ’60s, #Dick #Uihlein didn’t waver:
    He married Liz before graduating from college in 1967,
    joined the family business and immersed himself in conservative politics.

    He worked on the 1969 Illinois congressional campaign of Phil Crane, who won a crowded Republican primary in an upset on a hardline anti-tax and anti-communist platform.

    In one of the only interviews he’s ever given, Dick Uihlein told National Review in 2018 that he got his politics from his father,
    who often went by Ed.

    At the family breakfast table growing up, Uihlein recalled,
    “My father would talk about the importance of capitalism and the evils of socialism.”

    Dick said that same year that
    “my father shared many of the same values that I have, conservative values.”

    Dick and Liz Uihlein continue to revere Edgar Jr., who died in 2005.

    Dick Uihlein named the family foundation after his father, and it now sends♦️ tens of millions of dollars to right-wing institutions.

    Among the recipients of the Ed Uihlein Family Foundation’s grants are the
    ♦️ #Federalist #Society and think tanks that have pushed misleading claims about the 2020 election, such as the #Conservative #Partnership #Institute
    and the
    #Foundation #for #Government #Accountability,
    as the Daily Beast reported.

    Tucked in toward the back of the Uline catalog released this summer,
    sent out to millions of homes and businesses,
    was a long tribute to the “wise” Edgar Uihlein Jr.

    “Father Uihlein, the head of the family, had a towering presence, and we respected his values,” wrote Liz Uihlein under a picture of her husband and father-in-law,
    recalling “frequent dinners at his house, where business, issues of the day, fishing muskies and, always, politics were discussed.”

    She ended on a note of nostalgia tinged with bitterness:

    “Living your life and raising your kids were easier in an easier time.
    There was no legalized marijuana, defund the police or social media.

    We, like so many families, were raised with a sharp moral compass.

    The rules were the rules, but it was OK.”

    The Uihleins’ political giving reflects these longings for a bygone era.

    Dick Uihlein is a major funder of the #American #Principles #Project,
    which runs ads attacking what it calls “#transgender #ideology,” #abortion and the teaching of “#critical #race #theory.”

    Last year, Uihlein weighed in on ♦️recalling four school board members in a small town north of Milwaukee because of their support for COVID-19 #safety #protocols and “#equity” training for teachers.

    More recently, in his home state of Illinois, Uihlein has spent more than♦️ $50 million to back the Republican gubernatorial candidate #Darren #Bailey, who has drawn criticism for saying the #Holocaust “doesn’t even compare” to the toll of abortions and for accusing Democrats of “putting #perversion into our schools” for adopting a sex ed bill that includes information about gender identity and same-sex couples.

    The Uihleins were huge beneficiaries of a tax provision promoted by Sen. #Ron #Johnson, R-Wisc., that was included in the Trump tax overhaul and are continuing to support the Wisconsin senator and fund attack ads against his opponent.

    For all the Uihleins’ dismay at the disorder they see consuming the country, there is one domain where they can exert near total control.

    Former employees of Uline told ProPublica the couple’s traditionalist politics govern the smallest details of how the company is run.

    For new staffers, it begins with the #dress #code in the employee handbook:
    Women are not permitted to wear pants except as part of a pantsuit or on Fridays;
    hose or stockings must be worn except during the warmer months;
    dresses “that are too short” and corduroy of any kind are strictly prohibited.

    The handbook defines “tardy” as one minute past an employee’s scheduled start time.

    Just four personal items are allowed on employees’ desks,
    with maximum dimensions of 5 inches by 7 inches.

    One former staffer at Uline’s headquarters recalled a coworker who was forced to remove several drawings done by his young child.

    “Liz would walk up and down the aisles, and if your desk looked off, you’d be written up,” he recalled.

  5. SACR and its members harp on the idea that America is in a fatal stage of rot, and that they are an oppressed people waiting to rise up on behalf of a silent majority.

    The SACR website speaks to the deeply held grievance and sense of a lack of masculine purpose which animates the group.

    SACR exists, the website says, because “a man is no longer encouraged to fly to the stars,”
    because “those who rule today spit on such ambitions;
    they corrupt the sinews of America.”

    “They have alienated men from family, community, and God.

    We counter and conquer this poison, rebuilding a society where a man can find genuine fulfilment,
    true to his nature and calling,
    rejoicing in virtue and vitality,” the website says,
    before offering a Google docs link where men can apply.

    At the end of the day, SACR’s members are not oppressed.

    Claremont is free to publish whatever it likes
    — it’s widely seen as tremendously influential on the right generally and in MAGA circles specifically.

    SACR chapters can meet; Haywood can blog
    — in fact, on Tuesday he wrote an encomium to The Camp of the Saints, a 1970s French novel in which a horde of Indian immigrants overwhelms, degrades, and exterminates the white West.

    “The goal of the Left was always total expropriation of white people and then, if at all possible, their extermination,
    a goal made explicit by many powerful people in 2020,” Haywood wrote.

    “How, given this history, should white Americans respond?”

    SACR may be his answer.

    In emails from November 2020, Yenor wrote to Skyler Kressin, the head of the SACR chapter in Coeur d’Alene, Idaho, and on the group’s national board.

    Yenor sent a screenshot of an Amazon link to
    “The Super Afrikaners,”
    a 1979 nonfiction account of the #Afrikaner #Broederbond,
    a semi-secret society which ruled South Africa under apartheid.

    “That good?” Yenor titled the subject line, highlighting the book — long out of print — and its $95.62 price.

    “That’s the one,” Kressin replied.

    South Africa, with its visions of white settlers driven away from status and wealth, appear consistently in Haywood’s writings, and in Fischer’s as well.

    The Broederbond, an Afrikaner-only, Calvinist-only group of elites which functioned as a series of hundreds of independent “cells” across the country, offers an eerie reflection of SACR’s structure.

    Williams told TPM that the Afrikaner Broederbond came up in conversations over what SACR would be, but denied that it served as a model for the group.

    The grievance, perceived loss of status, and lack of metaphysical meaning that these men feel are very real, to them.

    But there’s enough in America’s own history to understand the aims and tradition in which SACR is operating.

  6. Perhaps the most startling element of SACR is one of its long-term objectives.

    Per the mission statement obtained by TPM, SACR aims to have its members form the government of an “aligned future regime.”

    “They would be next generation
    —not founding participants, but those who joined as the project of civic renewal grows deep roots,” the document reads.

    “That is, men who ‘grow up in the system.’”

    Other goals include providing “preferential treatment for members, especially in business,”
    and to both “coordinate allied fraternal networks”
    and “defend fraternal networks … against attacks by those opposed to civic renewal, and strongly deter such attacks.”

    In Yenor’s Boise chapter, SACR members attempted to craft a “#Statement on #Marriage” in which local church leaders would proclaim an “intentional effort to celebrate the benefits of family life” because the “culture is hostile to Christian marriage.”

    To do that, the group would “promote marriage publicly through a pro-marriage sticker” to be spread around the Boise region.

    The same group held events with speakers, including writer and policy researcher #Aaron #Renn.

    At one point, emails show, Yenor pitched an Idaho news website to Claremont funders called Action Idaho, saying that SACR would take care of back-end work for the venture.

    Other public remarks from members point towards the group’s activities.

    After The Guardian published its initial story on the group over the summer, a small controversy erupted among evangelicals who regarded Haywood’s views as dangerous and the prospect of a certain strain of Christianity taking control of the government as troubling.

    Fischer hit back in a podcast appearance, describing SACR as a “big-tent thing where men get together.”

    “So the local chapters or lodges will have a meeting and maybe 15 guys get together and a speaker comes in and talks about something political, sometimes it’s a political candidate or whatever.
    And then we learn and sometimes we just hang out,” he said.

    “There’s no sort of great #secrecy associated with it. There’s a little degree of #confidentiality because there’s guys there who are at companies where even being associated with a group that is all men would be seen as suspicious.”

  7. If you make it in, you’re asked to pay regular dues and appear at meetings once a month.

    Chapter members’ names are hidden, as are “national or Chapter initiatives.”

    Fischer posted a copy of a mission statement and objectives already previously obtained by TPM on Twitter Thursday evening.

    The group has public and non-public descriptions of its purpose and goals.

    In an “internal” version of the mission statement, SACR says “we are un-hyphenated Americans and we believe in a particular Christianity that is not blurred by modernist philosophies.”

    “We are willing to act decisively to secure permanently, as much as anything is permanent, the political and social dominance of that ideal,” the document says.

  8. A “SACR Membership Criteria & Recruiting Guide” obtained via TPM’s public records requests shows questions that the group puts to prospective members.

    🔸What are your thoughts on the Republican Party?

    🔸What are your thoughts on “Christian Nationalism”?

    🔸Comment on the Trump presidency and what it entails for the future.

    🔸Describe the dynamic of your household in terms of your role and that of your wife.

    🔸Describe your church community and your and your family’s involvement there

    Other criteria for membership include #faithfulness (“adherence to traditional Christian sexual ethics”),
    #virtue (“restraint and self-denial; household management; leadership and orderliness”),
    and #alignment, defined as: “deference to and acceptance of the wisdom of our American and European Christian forebears in the political realm, a traditional understanding of patriarchal leadership in the household, and an acceptance of traditional Natural Law in ethics more broadly.”

    Finally, members are asked to possess one of these three qualities:
    #influence,
    #capability (“any skill conducive to the technical work of productive #entrepreneurship;
    #lawfare;
    #cybersecurity”),
    or #wealth.

  9. Who is excluded, in some sense, reveals more about SACR than who is allowed in.

    The group bans anyone who is not Christian:
    Jews, Muslims, Hindus, and others.

    But it goes further than that and bars “non-trinitarian” Christians;
    Mormons, Jehovah Witnesses, Christian Scientists, and others cannot be SACR members.

    Williams said that the religious exclusivity came from the “long and robust tradition of the intersection between #Trinitarian #Christianity in a broad sort of ecumenical sense and American civic leadership and statesmanship.”

    “Too much ecumenism is sometimes counterproductive in these sorts of ventures,” he added.

    “Which is not to say that we don’t of course have nothing but toleration in the great American tradition for all faiths as long as they’re genuinely
    — as long as they are not hostile to American principles and notions of natural rights and constitutionalism.”

    #Women are not allowed in SACR, whatever their faith.

    The group emphasizes a traditional role for the man in the household, a robust and muscular exercise of temporal authority by men, and the forceful application of male dominion in civic affairs.

    Yenor, the Boise State professor, told TPM in a text that the group’s exclusivity was a way “to bring men together for real community and fraternity,” allowing members to “build each other up and encourage responsibility” in public and private life.
