Listen to the recent pinker mearsheimer debate. Pinker would be a good person to advocate for the triumph of enlightenment values and where else would those values be most evident than the academy, and yet Jewish students are made to cower

Mentioned in the article, maybe. But it’s common knowledge that most faculty today are de facto activists, they just done self identify as such usually.

Did vox used to be better? I think anger is like flatulence. You can talk a lot about it but at the end of the day it’s just a bunch of hot air. “Make your flatulence work for you.” Odd.

“suppose some of us just aren't capable of believing.” That’s such an obvious fallacy, you should do yourself a favor and introspect how such an absurd idea came into your head. Who put it there? To see it’s absurd, consider, have you

Interesting comment. By what mechanisms would you suggest the disappearing is being carried out by the State? The State is threatened by power, obviously love and friendship are powerful things, but there aren’t in actuality any political

“ modern Chinese experts on America are just repeating what the American media says about the country.” There is no American media. There’s leftist American media and rightest American media. I’m guessing Chinese experts (who are leftists)

There has never been real communism so how could anybody hope to know what is? Literally.

Why focus on youth employment? Not that I disagree China economy is the toilet. But I do think they have a more nimble economy that can turn around quicker. If your thesis is that world manufacturing is leaving China to return (primarily)

Without any source information it may as well be written in crayon. (No offense. At least op provided something to back their claim.)

Agree that often politicians sell out their people and natural resources (the rights and endowment of future citizens) for short term gain. This is a natural consequence of politicians being inherently terrible people by and large.

Zero mention of hunter Biden’s self proclaimed influence over “every single member” of the Deleware chancery court. Seems like a notable omission in the reporting here.

I’m not extremely wealthy so can’t spend 20 pounds on this but I imagine I would agree with the moral argument for limiting wealth. But the details make the whole discussion seem like an absurd waste of intellect. Please, just name the peop

The wiki article is incoherent or at least not easy to sustain motivation enough to finish reading. I think the California ideology they seem to be hinting at can be better thought of as “luxury beliefs” the sort of which Ron Henderson wri

Sleep apnea is mostly a grift. Doctors go along with it because they don’t really care for obese people. It’s pretty scandalous if you look into it. The sleep apnea industry exists to sell machines first and foremost. Very little science in

If you use your phone at work, doesn’t that then become discoverable in the legal sense?

Big fan of the straussian commit message/commentary style. You read it once and think you understand, but you come back to it much later and understand it in a second, deeper way. There’s an art to this that some people seem to have. M

People really abuse this term. Like using “natural” to market stuff. But arsenic is “all natural”! It’s “open source” so it must be beneficial. “rm -rf c” is “open source” too

Read “infomania” as insomnia and skimmed the whole damn thing (or 80% if it) before figuring out this didn’t have the cure for insomnia (unless it’s caused by infomania, which is plausible).

The book would be short. The “me generation” takes control, zeroes interest rates after they crash the world economy in 2008. Roll the clock forward 10 years, nimbyism plus importing cheap labor and allowing the housing market to be used as

You’ll eventually lower your caloric intake on a keto diet the same way most people over consume calories in a carb heavy diet. It’s just a side effect of decreased food cravings and the obstacles inherent to the diet. You get sick of avaca
