A.I. or Human…..take the test here.

One solution is to teach children critical thinking as a dedicated school subject, like math or history. Teach children how to question, explore ideas, and understand the history of thought. Learn to spot the differences between valid and invalid reasoning and cause vs. correlation. Understand how arguments are constructed and defended by knowing…[Read more]

The challenge facing the current American administration is not the pace of change, but its utter lack of a coherent vision for what should replace existing structures. This is not the “traditional conservatism” so often touted during GOP campaigns, where reform is pursued with caution and respect for institutional continuity. Instead, it is a rec…[Read more]

Thanks Reg 🙂

Have a great week everyone!

IDF soldiers are reporting they are ordered to shoot Palestinians lining up for food. I call this terrorism.

And docs are so overworked i think that it is understandable that they can’t always give good care.

One of my professional roles is to improve the IT systems of small medical practices. Most are owned by one MD with maybe a 2 or 3 other medical staff. They close every Wednesday afternoon. I once asked what she did for those afternoons. “About 5 o…[Read more]

So, if it takes slaying every last Palestinian man, woman, and child to make Israelis feel safe, that’s a valid justification?

File that along with “We had to destroy the village in order to save it” under the topic “The dystopian ‘logic’ of war.”

If Netanyahu isn’t a war criminal, how high has the bar been set?

Followed by 3100 words attempting to debunk the facts.

Several organizations and bodies have issued statements or reports characterizing Israel’s war against Hamas in Gaza as a genocide or a war crime. It is important to note the specific legal terms they use, as there are distinctions in international law.

Declarations of Genocide or Acts of Genocide

Iranian crimes against its own people vs. Israeli genocide against its Palestinian subjects

The U.S. should declare “A plague on both your houses” and stay out of it.

Some serious FAFO going on in Trump’s base.

But why should he care? He won the election, surrounded himself with “yes” people, and is in a position to wield the lethal power he’s been lusting for almost unchecked. Yesterday (or the day before?) the Supremes asserted that he absolutely can round up and…[Read more]

@Pope Beanie

Don’t be naive. Trump has a pathology. Psychopathology? Sociopathology? or a toxic blend of both? I think that’s for sure.

He’s been itching to feel wielding lethal power and I think he enjoyed bombing Iran probably mostly because of his blood lust, knowing that he probably killed a bunch of Iranian scientists by collapsing their…[Read more]

Israel may not be satisfied with negotiating yet. I think they want a decisive end to that Iranian regime.

I can’t see any other viable option for Israel. If the Iranian regime is not ended, it will grow another ugly head and just start to refinance and restock Hamas and Hezbollah, both of whom are terrorist branches of Iran.

What Bibi wants, Bibi gets. Israel pretty much gets its own seat at Trump’s Security Council. For totally unbiased contributions, no doubt. Our supposed “allies” like the UK, France, Germany, etc., don’t even get that privilege.

Oh, but am I wrong in thinking they are allies anymore?

Anyone who doesn’t see a potential for WW3 here has their head up their ass.
