An innocent man took a selfie and is now being charged under the Trudeau Regime

!leafs things have hit a new low

It's been almost a year since the crime occurred, but Britt Leroux of Windsor says she's still haunted by the selfie photo that Bubba Pollock took and posted while in the hospital room of her terminally ill father.

Pollock had clashed with Leroux — a Pride activist — on Facebook over a drag event and 2SLGBTQ+ issues.

A leading academic no doubt thought she was making polite conversation when she mentioned her fondness of sushi to a Japanese colleague.

However, Nana Sato-Rossberg interpreted the comment as racist, accused Claire Ozanne of prejudice, then sued the School of Oriental and African Studies at the University of London.

Now the judge chairing an employment tribunal has ruled that Sato-Rossberg, a linguistics and culture professor, was “hypersensitive” and “predisposed” to finding fault in her colleague. Jillian Brown dismissed Sato-Rossberg's claim, finding that Ozanne, the former deputy director and provost at Soas, was simply making acceptable and friendly “small talk”.

Earlier the tribunal was told that Sato-Rossberg started teaching at the university in 2014 and five years later was appointed as head of the department for languages, culture and linguistics.

In 2020 Ozanne, an Oxford graduate and insect specialist who has appeared on BBC radio programmes and has since moved to Liverpool Hope University, became her manager.

The tribunal in central London heard that after their first meeting, Sato-Rossberg told a colleague that she thought Ozanne would be biased because Sato-Rossberg “was not British” and was an ethnic minority woman.

The hearing was told that Sato-Rossberg had said that “people like me — a non-white female — must constantly consider the possibility that they are treated unfairly because of gender or ethnicity”.

There was also evidence that in 2021 Ozanne told Sato-Rossberg about a sushi restaurant near her home that her family enjoyed visiting, and that the professor took exception to the comment. Sato-Rossberg told the tribunal that Ozanne “would not have said to a German person, ‘I like sausage.'”

Sato-Rossberg told the hearing that if Ozanne “wished to make conversation, we had many commonalities through our work and professional academic endeavour. But [she] chose to speak only about topics directly relevant to my race: the liking of Japanese food and that her family like it and eat sushi.”

In its report the tribunal said that in the six months following the sushi comment, Sato-Rossberg continued to complain about Ozanne. In 2022 she emailed a senior member of the university's administration accusing the deputy director of bullying and harassment. Sato-Rossberg asked for Ozanne to be replaced as her manager, claiming that she had exhibited “racist microaggression” towards her.

The university started an investigation into the claims, during which time Sato-Rossberg was promoted, but it rejected the allegations last year. In response Sato-Rossberg sued Soas for race discrimination, harassment, victimisation and unfair treatment for whistleblowing.

Rejecting the claim, the judge found that Sato-Rossberg had concluded, without evidence, that Ozanne was prejudiced against her from the start of their relationship.

Addressing the sushi remark, the judge said that Ozanne was aware that Sato-Rossberg was Japanese and took the view that she “would receive this positively. She was making small talk and trying to establish a point of shared interest.”

The judge added that Ozanne had said “nothing detrimental about Japan”.

Leafs are literally being replaced by Indians

I love how foids writting size like that fricking matters, and She could been same weight but with height 6 and she would look skinny with her weight but we know she is probably like 410 so at that weight shell look fat but its whatever

I unreal hate fat foids, and Calling them self normal sized and healthy, and We also as stragot I mean like mature society also decided telling them the truth is not good since they them self know they are fat so we will support them and it will fix the problem and it worked, the obesity percentages multiplied by 2 in 20 years and by 2035 there will be 70% obese in US because supporting them and therapy is working

Short answer: no

Long answer: noooooooooo

Detailed explanation: No, because definitely not.

If they think it's unfeasible (we don't have the tech currently to do it on a large scale) they should at least explain their reasons

No. It's mostly smoke and mirrors. Why are fossil fuel companies so interested in this technology? They use the captured CO2 to extract additional oil from wells. It's just another distraction to avoid the elephant in the room and continue business as usual.

The answer is No

This user is surely negative

I'm a chemist working on the (electro)conversion of CO2 into economically valuable products. In my opinion, making this process profitable would be the only way to convince big companies to significantly invest in the process. I can tell you that we are far from making the process economically viable

Edit: to clarify, I'm not defending that we should prioritize the economy. I'm saying that that's what policy makers/ big companies prioritize, so it won't happen until the process is profitable, which is far from now. We thus rely on different approaches to mitigate climate change

A sensible comment

Bonus on doomering about millions dying in India during heat waves just a few years from now

https://old.reddit.com/r/climatechange/comments/1ct9dhj/fatal_heat_waves_are_testing_indias_ability_to/?sort=controversial

We are going to have a heat wave combined with power failure that kills millions by the end of the decade.

You get a wet bulb temp weather system that settles over a city for a couple days, and the power system goes down.

The opening chapter of the novel "The Ministry for the Future" is a description of just this scenario, and it is hands down one of the most horrifying things I have ever read.

Yup that chapter was sickeningly realistic

The heat wave deaths are then followed by a massive pandemic as millions of corpses liquefy in the heat. The whole city would be a biohazard for a long time

I just started this book yesterday and this post made me do a double take. I had a moment of like, “wait…that's too real”

This is a very unusual and fascinating thing. I understand that blood relationships can be difficult at times, but what, I ask, is what drives this one particular club to go out of their way to do this? Is it some kind of guilt-motivated signal? Or maybe it's supposed to…reflect their fan demographics?

Idk maybe I'm looking into this too much, but dang, these Brits really got my noggin in good use
