In my previous post, I wrote about what was gained during the past year. But what was lost? The passive tone here is intentional, as I feel we all lost something, as individuals and as a society.
Lives, too many lives were lost. The deadliest year on record in the U.S., according to Keiser Health.
If you were able to keep away from social media and arguments, congratulations. Don’t mean to sound flippant.
I did not fare as well.
My list of virtual friends (not sure that is the proper word) is smaller. So be it.
Faced with for and against arguments, tribalism and narcissism flourished. A cursory glance would be enough to see that from the moon. We all became experts in subjects foreign to us months prior.
New political sectarianism is one of the greatest national security issues in the world, according the UN. We are forming tribes and going at each other with little remorse. Never mind the adults, I see tension-ridden political conversations among teenagers in my son’s group, not a thing in years past.
Why?
Know any highly opinionated people? If not head over to any social-media site. Caring deeply gives us strong opinions, sure, but there is more. At times, it feels as though outside forces are moving us, like a puppeteer his puppets. I no longer recognized people I knew well. In my most honest moments, I no longer recognize myself.
There is a political truism out there: when there is unrest look at who benefits if you want to trace its source and reason. Having come of age in Eastern Europe, a hotbed for political unrest and two world wars, it’s hard not to see the same old political forces at play, only more subtle, more tech savvy.
Of course, agreement doesn’t always bring alignment. At least one group I belong to, people of similar minds, turned on each other recently. If you are A you must not be B, and having uttered this word makes you C. Tolerance is running low among friends as well. The argumentative personality seems to be the dominant trait everywhere I turn.
It’s the early days. Too early to tell how this ideological war among the highly opinionated will shape the world but look for the world to be different within the next decade or sooner.

Patience is one of the feminine qualities that originate from our oppression, but that must be preserved after our liberation.
A paciência é uma das qualidades femininas que têm como origem a nossa opressão, mas que deve ser preservada após a nossa libertação. “

To open your heart and walk in the paths of love, for you are ready to see the world with its pleasure and pleasure, and also to bear its sorrows and misfortunes, and the sign of love is the submission of the heart to the beloved and tracing the traces of love over the roads and paths, your path is paved with roses and winds with some thorns and obstacles to test patience and courage
قلوب المُحبين سابحة فى الفضاء كأسراب الحمام، تحمل فى طوقها رسائل اللهفة والشوق للقاء الأحبة . ( أبو محمد على بن أحمد بن سعيد بن حزم الأندلسى ) الفقيه الظاهرى المذهب ، وضع رسالة فى الحب فطافت حول العالم فى طوق الحمامة وتلقفتها القلوب والعيون بمزيج من التلهُف والأشواق المُلتهبة ، فكأنما كتب دستوراً توزن به قلوب العاشقين وتُلتَمس فيه دروب المحبة والأُلفة بين البشر ، لمست الرسالة قلوب المُحبين فحفظتها العقول وعملت بها الجوارح فبقيت الحمامة رمز المحبة والسلام عبر العُصور وظل فى طوقها كتاب الحب .
الكلام فى ماهية الحب
الحب – أعزك الله – أوله هزل وآخره جد . دقت معانيه لجلالتها عن أن توصف، فلا تدرك حقيقتها إلا بالمعاناة ، وليس بمنكر فى الشريعة ،إذ القلوب بيد الله عز وجل . اختلف الناس فى ماهيته وقالوا وأطالوا، والذى أذهب إليه أنه اتصال بين أجزاء النفوس المقسومة فى هذه الخليقة فى أصل عنصرها الرفيع على سبيل مُناسبة…

“Here’s the truth about racial injustice: It is not just a Black America problem or a people of color problem,” Harris said. “It is a problem for every American. It is keeping us from fulfilling the promise of liberty and justice for all. And it is holding our nation back from realizing our full potential. We are all a part of George Floyd’s legacy. And our job now is to honor it and to honor him.” Source: Harris: Country must confront racial injustice after Chauvin verdict | TheHill
A teacher of a kindergarten through grade twelve (K-12) science class at a public school or open-enrollment public charter school may teach creationism as a theory of how the earth came to exist.
This section is permissive and does not require a teacher to teach creationism as a theory of the earth came to exist.
But those two sentences are enough to land teachers and their local school system in a world of trouble, in that the permission given runs afoul of a lot of legal precedent. In a key case that involved Arkansas itself, McLean V. Arkansas Board of Education, a group of plaintiffs banded together to challenge a state law that mandated the teaching of “creation science” in public schools. The judge in that case correctly recognized that creation science was actually religious in nature, and it therefore violated the constitution’s prohibition against the establishment of state religion.

Health officials have warned that hospitals in New Delhi could run out of oxygen by tomorrow, and as cases surge to unprecedented levels in the world’s second most populous country, India’s Prime Minister Narendra Modi today addressed the nation. He said the oxygen demand is felt in many parts of the country, and federal, state, and private groups are working to bolster the supply, according to the Times of India.
Modi also said efforts are underway to increase hospital bed capacity, with large dedicated COVID-19 facilities under construction in some cities. However, he urged India’s states to only consider lockdowns as a last resort and opt for establishing “micro containment zones.”
In other steps, the government opened vaccination to all people older than 18 and is taking steps to increase the vaccine supply by waiving import fees, according to Reuters.
Indian experts have said a combination of social mixing, relaxed measures, and more transmissible variants—including B1617, first seen in India—are fueling the country’s massive second surge. Political rallies in some states and a large Hindu religious gathering on the banks of the Ganges River in the city of Hardiwar are also playing a role in virus spread, and the Modi’s political party announced it will no longer hold large rallies in West Bengal state and will cap attendance at 500, according to CNN.
Chauvin, who has been free on $1 million bond since October, was handcuffed and taken to prison immediately after the judge announced the verdict. He was found guilty of second degree murder, third degree murder, and manslaughter, and faces up to 40 years in prison, though he will likely face around 12 years.
A twelve-person jury reached the unanimous verdict on its second day of deliberations, following a three-week trial featuring testimony from nearly 50 witnesses. In order to find Chauvin guilty of second degree murder, the top charge, jurors had to determine that he “intended to commit [third degree] assault and that George Floyd sustained substantial bodily harm as a result,” according to Hennepin County Judge Peter Cahill’s instruction.
