Enco,

It is reckless and negligent or deliberate and sadistic to bring a human into this abomination known as civilization on planet earth.

In other news i beseech you and preach to you not to deride and belittle our great leader Mr. Trump. It is in bad taste to make fun of the retarded particularly when they are criminals, convicts, swindlers…[Read more]

Should social services just remove children from religious extremist parents or from any other cult members?

These two stories need to be shown prominently to everyone who’s in a snit over the world’s decreasing fertility rates.

How about making the world a place worth bringing children into?

How about making a world so great no one…[Read more]

Fellow Unbelievers:

Here below is a collection of scenes from a movie I saw on the Universal Monsters streaming channel, not my usual viewing of Mystery Science Theater 3000.

The scenes are from Dracula’s Daughter, the 1936 sequel to the original 1931 Dracula starring Bela Lugosi as the title role.

Oh I forgot: Mark Levin actually granted Trump the honor of being The First Jewish President. Thankfully, no word about Bar Mitzvahs< or bris ceremonies.

* (The honor of The…[Read more]

“I’m sorry Dave, I can’t do that.” To give AI rights is the most frightening idea I’ve ever heard. It’s already sociopathic, or psychopathic, in that it has no morality whatsoever, it’s entirely instrumental, although so far, morally neutral in every way.

Great description of the present ownership and wanna-be owners of AI.😁

Jake:

Einat and her peers in Israel are not going to gratuitously call out or alienate an ally like Trump. Well a sometimes ally. And they still need USA to help end the threat of ballistic weapons/nucs and the IRGC.

So it’s “Trump uses Israel and she uses Trump and neither one cares”* …only it’s the Mullahs, the IRGC, and their terrorist…[Read more]

The need for weapons is like the need for lawyers. Ya need em to protect yourself from other lawyers. To arms, to arms the British are coming. And they don’t stop.

As long as political ideologies keep reinforcing the us v them and the constructs about innate characteristics aine nuthin gonna change.
