Lt. Gen. Charles Flynn slated to command US Army Pacific, and 14 other promotions

Flynn, who currently serves as deputy chief of staff for Army operations, plans and training at the Pentagon, was key in crafting a new Army force generation model that was introduced this fall.

It's abuse of power, which isn't really a phenomenon. I couldn't open the Scottish article, but the story about unwed mothers and their children being abused in a Catholic-run country isn't surprising. The Catholic church is responsible for carrying out some of the most heinous abuses of power over the helpless in the history of mankind. But they don't do it in a vacuum. There's a certain level of institutional tolerance that's existed to let it happen, and go unchecked for centuries.

It's the same with our residential schools - the government funded them, the church executed the plan, and law enforcement ignored the crimes. It's systemic.


"Residential schools were government-sponsored religious schools that were established to assimilate Indigenous children into Euro-Canadian culture.

"Residential schools were created by Christian churches and the Canadian government as an attempt to both educate and convert Indigenous youth and to assimilate them into Canadian society."

"Bodies of children were not returned to families, and parents rarely learned the circumstances of a child’s death. Often, the only death notification would be to send the child’s name to the Indian Agent at his or her home community.

" In 1938, after one mother near Cornwall, Ont., learned of her son’s death at residential school due to meningitis, she was denied a request to return his body home for burial. “It is not the practice of the Department to send bodies of Indians by rail excepting under very exceptional circumstances,” read a response from the Department of Indian Affairs, adding that it was “an expenditure which the Department does not feel warranted in authorizing.”

Confirmation bias coupled with algorithms that present back similar data to feed that confirmation bias is bad for humans.

So much of the internet is constructed in a ay to make humans be fearful consumers it is not funny.
