In a remarkable intersection of history and modernity, an ancient limestone tablet, dating back over 3,000 years, offers us a mesmerizing portal into the heartbeat of human existence—a connection between eras that spans millennia. At the core of this aged relic lies a revelation that transcends time: the art of absence management is a practice deeply etched into the annals of human society.

This historical artifact, affectionately referred to as an ostracon, bestows upon us a unique glimpse into the labor-management practices of ancient Egypt, unfolding during the illustrious reign of Ramses II, around 1250 BCE.

You cannot "COEXIST" with people who want to kill you.
If they kill their own with no conscience, there is nothing to stop them from killing you.
Rational fear and anger at vicious murderous Islamic terrorists is the same as irrational antisemitism, according to the Leftists.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.
