A Rare Protest in China
You won't see or hear anything about this in China, and I feel for the poor man...but he is a hero.
https://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-china-63339816
"On a cloudy afternoon last week, a man mounted a busy overpass in Beijing's Haidian university district, carrying a cardboard box and car tyres.
Wearing an orange worksuit and a yellow hard hat, he easily passed off as a construction worker.
But then, he unfurled two massive white banners covered in slogans written in red paint. He set the tyres on fire. As plumes of black smoke swirled around him, he picked up a loudhailer and repeatedly chanted:
"Go on strike at school and work, remove dictator and national traitor Xi Jinping! We want to eat, we want freedom, we want to vote!"
In an instant, the man pulled off one of the most significant acts of Chinese protest seen under Mr Xi's rule, marring the triumphant start of the Chinese leader's expected third term in power."
China Just Doesn't Give a Shit
The Headline: China anger over death of girl, 14, sent to Covid quarantine
The link: https://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-china-63324655
A summary: "Guo Jingjing, 14, developed a fever two days after being taken to the centre in Ruzhou, Henan province last Friday.
Videos of her shaking and convulsing on a bed sparked an outcry online in China which retains strict pandemic controls.
Her family had shared the clips, appealing for help and accountability.
Officials contacted by the BBC have yet to comment on the allegations or the cause of Guo Jingjing's death, which remains unclear.
In his video, her father Guo Lele said workers at the centre had failed to provide any treatment to Jingjing as her condition worsened."
Of course, everything about this is being aggressively censored.

The Worst landlord? Your Government
"The report from the U.S. Housing and Urban Development (HUD) found that DCHA had let many of the units become damaged by persistent water leaks and mold, had failed to adequately monitor lead risks to child residents, and failed to control crime at authority properties.
Photos included in the report show images of units made totally uninhabitable by black mold, crumbling walls, and missing floor tiles."
If your government wasn't the government they would be held criminally liable for what they do. How can they enc=force rules against landlords that they can't follow themselves?

Your Government Cheats And Cheats
This is not a discussion of the underlying policy, but rather the unethical and downright mean methods your government uses to implement a policy without any legal authority to do so AND to shield itself from good faith litigation to prevent it.
Moving the goalposts experts they all are.
"How do you challenge a rule that doesn't exist, and that constantly changes with every new blog post? The Biden Administration keeps moving the goal posts to block legal challenges."

Your Government Puts Crazy Cops On The Street With Guns
Okay, that's a bit of hyperbole, but not that much.
The Alameda police department found that HALF of their officers had failed their psychological testing. Testing that was given BEFORE they allowed them to be armed cops. Luckily, one of those crazy cops shot a couple who was part of a love triangle with him. The subsequent investigation discovered the failed tests.
The response from the county is exactly what you would expect from a government that hates you. We will retest them because tests are better now and they were probably just too immature to pass the test. But NOT immature enough not to give them a gun!?!

China Jailed Over 1000 Political Prisoners In Hong Kong
From the Hong Kong Political Prisoners Database:
“There have been 1,014 political prisoners in Hong Kong from June 9, 2019, to May 10, 2022… Hong Kong now has one of fastest-growing populations of political prisoners in the world, rivaling Belarus, Burma, and Cuba, other societies where authoritarian governments have recently cracked down on protest movements… Overall, this situation constitutes no less than a grave human rights crisis.”

Your Government Is Delaying Your Flight And Making It Cost More
"In 2009, after a Colgan Air crash near Buffalo, New York, killed 50 people, Congress decided that airlines could only hire aspiring commercial pilots who already had lots of flight time.
Instead of 250 hours, now they have to have 1,500 hours!
"That never made any sense," says current commercial airline pilot Tracy Price in my new video.
The sixfold increase wouldn't have prevented the Colgan crash. Those pilots had many more than 1,500 hours of flight time. The pilot had 3,379—the co-pilot, 2,244.
That didn't matter to the politicians. "We need to improve pilot training, address flight crew hours and service," said then-Sen. Frank Lautenberg (D–N.J.).
Demanding more pre-hire flight time discouraged people from trying to become pilots. It had "the effect of pulling up the ladder," says Price.
Few people have the time or money to get 1,500 hours in the air before they can even apply for a job. The number of certified pilots fell even as flight demand increased.
The pilots unions didn't object."

Your Government Hates Your Baby
The FDA loves its power more than it loves seeing your baby fed, so it seizes baby formula during a national shortage:
From the article: "Parental demand led to American mom-and-pop vendors selling European formula because the manufacturers wouldn’t make the effort. They even provided translated instructions. But the FDA in the past year has cracked down on these sellers. Without notice, thousands of families were left scrambling to find more formula. Parents who tried to purchase directly from Europe had hundreds of dollars of formula seized by U.S. customs agents. One parent reported that she had nearly $700 of formula destroyed at the border—in the middle of a national formula shortage.
The FDA’s actions have exacerbated the problem they were trying to solve. The agency cites concerns about storing and transporting powdered formula to avoid bacterial contamination or product deterioration. But by shutting down trusted vendors who had built a reputation on importing and selling high-quality products, the FDA drove desperate parents to untested sellers, creating the storage and handling concerns that caused the FDA to distrust European products. The difficulty finding preferred baby formula brands also increased the likelihood of inauthentic products and unscrupulous sellers taking advantage of parents in need."

Your Government Is A Thief...Again
"A Michigan couple says their town seized a building they owned and then demanded that they buy two cars for the police department to get their own property back."
"A February 24, 2021, email provided to Reason by the Kozbials' attorney, Marc Deldin, shows that a Highland Park police officer, ferrying a message from city attorney Terry Ford, sent the Kozbials quotes for two cars from a local Ford dealership, totaling about $70,000.
Civil liberties groups often criticize civil forfeiture for creating a perverse profit incentive for police and local governments, since forfeiture revenues often go straight into their budgets, but it's practically unheard of to see such an overt shakedown put into emails and court documents.
"Extortion, there's no other way to explain it," Deldin says."
An interesting document that is very common from other cases:
