From now on, I won’t be able to update this blog anymore
I don’t have any more interest to update this blog about Malaysia, especially with recent events and confusing times as covering them would be controversial. I wanted to do a change of something, sadly the idea to change for this blog is pretty much gone. The days of hype, the days you guys giving me submissions, thank you for those 4 years of making this blog happy.
In other words, I will be doing a new blog, a blog of me writing stuff like stories and more. Maybe that blog will have some facts about Malaysia.
Hey hey heyyy!
Its mean, admin Bears, the one running this blog! Guess who has survived the year of SPM 2019?
Man, how long have I abandon this blog, 2 years? You guys do really love to reblog from time to time huh.
You must be wondering, what is gonna happen to this blog. Are they gonna have any updates later on? Am I gonna abandon this blog from now on? The answer is, honestly I don’t know.
Not many useless country facts bloggers are active anymore like in the past. We’re now busy with our lives and most of the time we chat through whatsapp. At the same time, I wanted to expand my creativity of writing and maybe photography as a blogger with the side of spreading the Malaysian culture to the world.
Plus, with Malaysian politics going hell, I’d doubt I want to insert more Malaysian Political memes anymore without being back lashed again. I, at least I want to blog something to fill in the free time.
So, what do you guys think about the fate of this blog. I might revamp the entire blog in order to fit the current year. But bear with me for changes.
>Admin Bears, out
Y'all heard the news, I heard it too. Don’t share the video about the latest incident, dont give what that bastard wanted
Innalillah hi wa inna ilaihi rajiun
This is a summarized post for those who want to be informed. Obviously it does not cover everything, but it is in a simple format and highlights important points and is easy to understand.
Everyone has to do their own research. Not everything will be handed to you. There are many websites and sources out there, you have to look for them. The issues between Israel and Palestine is not an easy cut deal, there are many different factors that play into everything that is happening right now.
Today’s a Special Day!
Today is the day Hitler put a pistol to his head and blew his brains out whilst his “Thousand Year Reich” collapsed around him.
Happy Hitler Blew His Brains Out Day!!!
To all my followers who are citizens of the EU and of voting age, please consider signing and sharing this EU citizens’ initiative requesting that the European Commission stop upholding intellectual property rights regarding COVID vaccines and treatments and make them a public good instead.
In order for the European Commission to read these proposals this initiative needs a lot more people signing that it has now, so every person counts.
Please reblog if you support this. Likes don’t mean much on this hellsite, and they especially mean nothing for this sort of thing!

Happy “you’re fucking dead” day to benito mussolini xx
The nazi Condor Legion destroyed Gernika on a market day following the orders of Francisco Franco. The town was full of people from the surrounding areas who attended the market as well as the refugees come from Durango after the bombing of that town.
The city was burning for 3 days and 3 nights, inspiring Pablo Picasso to paint his masterpiece “Guernica”.
The town had no strategic value, and was bombed to strike the Basque army psychologically since the town guarded the Tree of Gernika, an almost sacred symbol for Basque people, a representation of the Basque old laws and identity.
Despite the horror, when dust settled, the fascists discovered that the tree stood standing. Just like Basque people.
Ez dugu ahaztuko. We won’t forget.

OP is linking to an EU Citizen’s Initiative. This is a means by which EU citizens can participate more directly with the development of EU policies by calling on the EU Commission to propose a legal act. It requires the signatures of a million EU citizens from at least a quarter of member states, and once it reaches that the EU Commission is required to consider it.
Please sign if you are a European Union citizen, pass it on to your friends and family, share on other social media, and whether you are an EU citizen or not please reblog (liking does nothing on this site, reblogs help )
This blog is on a 24h revolution lockdown. If it’s not about overthrowing oppressive regimes and ending dictatorships don’t interact.
HAPPY 25TH FUCK FASCISM FUCK DICTATORS
Please don’t forget Armenians
Today is Armenian genocide remembrance day. On april 24, 1915 started mass deportations of hundreds of Armenian intelectuals and community leaders, who were (most of the time) eventually killed. Armenian women and children were systematically r//ed and forcibly converted into islam. There were more than 2 milion Armenians in ottoman empire prior to ww1, 1,5 milion of them were viciously killed. Three millennia of Armenian civilaziation in eastern Anatolis was fully destroyed. Turkey today refuses to acknowledge genocides of christian minorities in early 20th century.
Do you know that mass ethnic cleansing of Armenians in ottoman empire inspired Lemkin to coin the term ‘genocide’?
Last year in september azerbaijan allied with turkey initiated a war against Armenia. More that 5000 Armenians were murdered, thousands of Armenia families had to live their ancestrial land to not get murdered. There are hundreds of vids on internet where armenian p.o.w.s are tortured. Recently azerbaijan opened a “museum” displayind dead or dying Armenians and kids were allowed to visit it.
Pleaseeducate yourself on Armenian genocide. You can also donate here to help Armenia. Thanks for reading!!
A friendly reminder that both the Irish potato famine and the Scottish highland clearances were little more than masked genocide in the name of the British crown that fundamentally changed the culture, language, politics, and wealth distribution of both countries in ways that can still be felt today. So I’m not saying Prince Philip was a terrible person but I am saying there’s a fucking reason why the Scots and Irish are probably digging out the good whisky tonight.
Nawal El Saadawi (1931- March 21st, 2021)
Today, our world lost a feminist icon. Nawal El Sadaawi was an Egyptian feminist writer, activist and physician. In her book The Hidden Face of Eve, she described how she was subjected to female genital mutilation (FGM), which she fought against ever since, because it was a tool to oppress women. FGM was only in 2008 banned in Egypt.
Nawal was born in 1931 as the second child in a family that had both progressive and traditional views. Nawal was circumcised herself when she was just 6 years old, yet her father also insisted that his children got an education. Nawal did realise at a young age that girls were regarded as less valuable than boys. When both her parents died young, Nawal was left with the care of a large family.
In 1955, Nawal graduated as a medical doctor from Cairo University. She specialized in psychiatry. She later became director of public health for the Egyptian government but had to leave this position when she published her non-fiction book Women and Sex in 1972. In this book, she railed against FGM and the sexual oppression of women.
While the government continued to work against her (for example shutting down the magazine Healthwhich she founded), Nawal never stopped her fight for women’s rights. In 1975, she published Woman at Point Zero (a novel based on the true story of a woman on death row) and in 1977, Nawal published the book The Hidden Face of Eve, where she talked both about her own experience with FGM and her experience as a village doctor witnessing sexual abuse, prostitution and honour killing.
In 1987, Nawal was arrested as part of a group dissidents under president Sadat. She spent 3 months in prison. When president Sadat was assassinated, she was released. They then censored her work and her books were banned. Because of her fight for women’s rights, in which she didn’t shy away from conservative believers, she received death threats, was taken to court and later went into exile in the USA. There, she continued her fight for feminism.
In 2018, a BBC presenter suggested that she tone down her criticism, to which she replied
“No. I should be more outspoken, I should be more aggressive, because the world is becoming more aggressive, and we need people to speak loudly against injustices. I speak loudly because I am angry. ”
While she gained much international recognition for her fight for women’s rights , she never got recognition from her home country Egypt, something she really dreamed off. In 1996, she returned to Egypt.
Very interesting to read: this interview she gave: Saadawi, Nawal El, and Adele S. Newson-Horst. “Conversations with Nawal El Saadawi.” World Literature Today, vol. 82, no. 1, 2008, pp. 55–58.
