Most people, and particularly teachers, don’t like it much.
I hadn’t thought about it before, but I think that this is one of the reasons that people can’t let go of the Apollo cargo cult. They see doing it in any other way as too risky, even though it has been thoroughly demonstrated that the big-rocket approach is unaffordable.
…of the (un)American Studies Association:
On our troubled globe, where states do truly terrible things to their people, gassing them, slaughtering them en masse, impoverishing and immiserating them, I am aware of only one country whose continued existence has been called into question. Should Zimbabwe exist? Or Sudan? Or Syria? Only Israel is subjected to constant questioning of its right to remain a nation. Israel, a sliver of a country surrounded by tyrannical regimes or perpetually unstable governments, free for the moment from war because of strength and not because of neighborly goodwill, this Israel is the target of the opprobrium of preening academics the world over. The question is not whether members of the ASA are anti-Semites, as individuals. All this is not because the world’s only Jewish state is uniquely evil. It is just uniquely Jewish.
Yup.
Some good advice for the culture war against the original Alinskyites.
Because they can’t really handle their own medicine.
Man, they sure imploded at season end. Now I don’t have to care if the Bears win.
[Update a few minutes later]
Wow, watching the Eagles dismantle the Bears just makes the Lion’s implosion more painful.
Worse than last year, better than next.
Wow. Looks like they’re going to start human trials of that mouse-rejuvenation treatment next year.
The societal impacts of this would be enormous.
Are we reliving the build up to World War I?
Hard to believe that war was almost a century ago now. My paternal grandfather fought in it.
One of the tropes of gender feminism is that if women were in charge, there would be less war and violence. Well, ignoring the notorious cruelty of Afghan women, it turns out that women were heavily involved in the Final Solution.
A brutal but accurate assessment from Bill Whittle.
