Quote by Lieke Marsman

“De onmacht die je voelt wanneer je een pen vasthoudt in de hand waarmee je normaal gesproken niet schrijft, in mijn geval mijn linkerhand; vergelijkbaar met de onmacht die je kunt voelen in sociale situaties, ruzies voorop. Je bent juist uitgerust, fysiek gezien klopt de situatie, maar hoe beweeg je je voort, hoe druk je je uit zonder te gaan trillen?”

“The United States granted asylum to exactly eight of 24,559 Haitian refugees applying for political asylum during that period [1981]... only 20 percent of those polled [in the US] said immigration should be easier for Haitians, while 55 percent said it should be more difficult. After a decade during which less than 0.5 percent of Haitian applicants were granted asylum, one wonders how much more difficult it could be.”

“Regardless of one's point of view, it's quite easy to see that Darwinism is not in the same league as the hard sciences. For instance, Darwinists will often compare their theory favorably to Einsteinian physics, claiming that Darwinism is just as well established as general relativity. Yet how many physicists, while arguing for the truth of Einsteinian physics, will claim that general relativity is as well established as Darwin’s theory? Zero.”

“Stop calling it war, for war implies faults on both sides. It's an invasion, where the state of Russia is the aggressor and the people of Ukraine are the victim. And stop saying that your prayers are with the Ukrainian people, for prayers may give you comfort, but it does nothing to alleviate their suffering. Shred all hypocritical advocacy of human rights and be involved in a meaningful way that actually helps the victims of Russian imperialism.”
