Robert,

I think stupid college kids and lefty professors are way less dangerous to democracy or Jews than the Christian national right/MAGA/Neofascists by 1000x . What is “woke” but kids rebelling against their parents. People who at least care about the disenfranchised.

It is possible to walk and chew gum at the same time…away from both of…[Read more]

Simon,

But you’re talking from the position of your armchair, off the top of your head, with no evidence.

The burden of proof rests with those who assert that there was a Garden of Eden/Golden Age/Noble Savagery.

Also, we know there is both intra-species and inter-species violence in the Animal Kingdom and the Primate Order of which Humans a…[Read more]

Robert:

Oh, this real first-rate smooth brain chatter, LOL. The left “awakened the far right’s latent Jew hate”. That’s brilliant.

So where is Jake wrong here? He’s just saying that one hand washes the other, especially when both are embarked on the same ugly goal.

The left isn’t looking for that final solution to the Jesus killers, the rejec…

Simon,

No power, no oppression, no money, no patriarchy? Sounds great. It’s true that people died very young though.

Did you read what I just said? There was NO Garden of Eden, NO Golden Age, NO Noble Savagery.

However, Power, oppression, and patriarchy did exist at least on a small scale and money existed when barter got too c…[Read more]

Arizona senator who thinks mankind came from monkeys has a say in childhood education.

Senator Farnsworth didn’t say he thought mankind came from monkeys, but rather that the Theory of Evolution said so. He is doing a good impersonation of a monkey by flinging poop, though.

Also, Mitzi Epstein got it wrong when she said that “Evolution…[Read more]

Simon,

You’re talking about life in the Garden of Eden. I think it must have been both terrifying and beautiful.

I’m saying there was no Garden of Eden or “Golden Age” or “Noble Savagery”, whether terrifying, beautiful, or otherwise.

Simon:

It did, and any political violence is deplorable. Even if he was aggressively anti-liberal, he had the right idea in debating people.

You are correct and I certainly wasn’t supporting that as an option. Just pointing out that all ways of dealing with opposing viewpoints have outcomes that are hard to pin down.

Simon:

All the more reason to look after them and try and heal them.

Come to think of it, you’re right here. I suppose that’s where the role of medicine man/shaman came from.

Still, the earliest known writing wasn’t around during hunter/gatherer times, so any medical wisdom they had would have spread by oral tradition, with the Telephone…[Read more]

Simon:

That’s not true at all. There’s plenty of evidence of prehistoric people caring for their sick and injured, and this evidence increases as we get nearer the present day.

There’s no denying that primitive people certainly got injured often. I know this from a flintknapping class where we had to wear safety goggles, leather gloves, and…[Read more]

Simon:

That’s pretty much what woke people used to say. I don’t think we should cancel people, I think we should talk to them and debate them.

Talk and debate is good when it can actually change minds. With the Woke and MAGA crowds that need changing, I’m thinking they are too much in their own echo chambers to be reached.

Jake:

The sad thing about those headlines is that they are both news and in a sense not news.

Debunking the myth of truly egalitarian societies in human history.

Of course. All Hunter-Gatherers are equal, but some hunt and gather more than others. And you know, even though they were more advanced than previously thought, the only thing equal with Hunter-Gatherers was grunting and groaning if they built Gobeckli Tepe. There would…[Read more]

How, when and why wellness influencers have gained the ability to spread health misinformation on social media.

The length of this article is part the reason why wellness disinformation prevails. You could watch 100 TikTok wellness videos in the time it takes to read this article.

PopeBeanie,

Your work on this research is appreciated!

And the Shambling Mound known as Donald J. Trump thanks us all for our attention to this matter.

More attention to Jesus, Dracula, and other undead beings means less attention to double-tapped civilian boats, the Epstein Files, appeasement of the other Vlad (Putin) and blood-lusting Saudi…[Read more]

Reg,

Let’s not forget the wooden stake through his heart would form a sundial which would further confirm your findings, especially since the Sun would make Dracula crumble away. 1 Stake 0 Dracula 1 Argument From Credulity. Absence of evidence is not evidence of absence.
