They call it healing - in fact, it is attempted murder. (Original: INDIEN - 3. oder 4. Welt❗️ Ein „heiliger Mann“ tritt ein Kleinkind fast tot – zur „Heilung“. Die eigenen Eltern stehen daneben, schauen andächtig zu. Das ist kein Glaube, das ist Barbarei. Sie nennen es Heilung - tatsächlich ist es versuchter Mord. https://t.co/RcOBwr1ATd) #ChildSafety #CulturalCritique #HumanRights #IN #DE

And to think that the odious public visual obscures these filth but goes to war against the French Canon. Left-wing and Islamist anti-Semitism running free. (Original: Et dire que l’odieux visuel public occulte ces saletés mais fait la guerre au Canon Français. L’antisémitisme de gauche et islamiste en roue libre.) #AntiSemitism #FreeSpeech #CulturalCritique #FR
