Almost too much there to respond to. Let’s start with this. I’ll answer more as I get time, unless you keep posting, but I see there are other posts by other people wanting to hear from me.

I’m going to set WW1 aside because I know much less about it beyond how The Great War started stupidly with a bungled assassination. We wisely…[Read more]

Luckily for us, Muslims tend to assimilate pretty well in the U.S., able to find work, buy homes, and enjoy the American way of life about as well as Christians. Of course, like Jews and Asians, they do suffer a degree of harassment from idiots who assume every Muslim is wearing a suicide vest.

The proof of successful…[Read more]

It was mainly the elderly and people with compromised immune systems who died of Covid, and it turned out that not only didn’t vaccination save many lives among the rest of the population, but it didn’t prevent one from becoming reinfected or becoming an asymptomatic carrier, did it? Contrary to what the drug manufacturers and the CDC…[Read more]

@robert Did you watch the interview? Not Pakman’s, the one in the top post. I think he makes some great points.

Yeah, and his so-called “good points” are all garbage that could have all been addressed by a real scientist or two. Instead he assembles an echo chamber of freaks. Here is what happened to thousands of people who bought i…[Read more]

@Robert

It should be obvious. Arguing from analogy, if you have more cars, you’ll have more auto accidents; if you have more swimming pools, you’ll have more drownings; and if you have more guns, there will inevitably be more gun-related deaths. And that’s without regard to concentrating only on murder and mayhem.

@Robert & Noel

Do you honestly believe (and I mean believe in your figurative heart and soul) that Putin could defeat a coalition of UK, France, Germany and the rest of NATO?

If so, you need to go into therapy.

They shouldn’t need us.

Humans refuse to see that we are the problematic introduced species. Though, because we are highly adaptable and resourceful, we would have sooner or later gotten to the Americas anyway, which is the argument I make regarding cats. A creature with the wild cat’s* survival skills and flexibility would have spread here eventually…[Read more]

@robert There are humane ways to euthanize cats and dogs such as a overdose of an opiate, though they are more expensive than the cheap ways, I imagine, such as a suffocation chamber, which has been used. One hopes blenders, wood chippers, etc., are not an option.

True, but irresponsible pet owners are the real cause of the year in…[Read more]

Thanks a lot Unseen, you just cost me a couple of hours. Where’s our musician @robert? He should be here by now, mocking our obsession. I wanted to post a longer, more relevant response, but don’t want to take attention away from Sunday School.

Well, prepare to lose more time. Here is their song “Martirio” (Martyr) which loo…[Read more]

The post isn’t about you.

The point is that, for many Americans, who rely on the mainstream media, many will be largely unaware that there were other candidates. When the Dem convention happens, they’ll be confused because they thought Biden had already been nominated.

Yes, webloggers do need to make money if they are going to earn a…[Read more]

What does Qanon have to do with anything? And who is creating fear if it’s not those seeming hell-bent on dragging us into a shooting war with a nuclear power?

This proxy war could have been avoided if we had simply let Ukraine declare itself a neutral country, as it had offered to do in March of last year. Back then, talks were…[Read more]

@Robert

You’re pulling the old “answering a question with a question” trick, followed by a rambling smatter of disparate personal opinions and prognostications.

Africa has rich resources, so one can either bargain with them by providing something they can use in exchange for future consideration based on good relations and friendship, or you can…[Read more]
