A View of History Tinted in Black
People trying to justify their racism by misquoting Mintoff CLEARLY fail to understand a single word the man ever said AND THE PEOPLE AROUND HIM, ESPECIALLY HIS FAMILY. The obvious: 1. His BROTHER Dionysius administers the Peace Lab which is itself a SHELTER FOR REFUGESS AND MIGRANTS along with the NGO AWAS which first began…

Social Constructs, Relativism and Marxism, part 2
What is a social construct? It does not mean it is something “which not is”. A chair will still retain the function of an elevated horizontal surface balanced on distributed pressure points we rest ourselves on if it is called a “rose”. But I can still access its reality of being so and still call…

Because he started some social programs that weren’t there before? Sure, well done. But were they made in a way that were not self-serving? His battle…

Plausible Deniability…?
I have…questions. In the article posted by the Times of Malta, Fr. Aaron Zahra, the Rector and St. Albert the Great, sticks to his guns and states that Mr. Mario Mallia, who is at the forefront of a lengthy saga, has allegedly refused to seek audience with the board of directors to discuss his ideas…

Who needs who?
It is both satisfying and horrifying that the people at Bolt have taken to striking; unlike a certain chef of a certain wannabe renown implied, this of course reflects on our co-nationals as NOT being lazy, but unwilling to be exploited.
