I read Animal Farm in 9th grade and it had a profound impact me. Hmmm is that you Napoleon?
What they could have done is not cancel the Keystone pipeline. Enact common sense energy policy instead of pushing all their chips into green technology, a key component of which is battery based and whose supply chain…
I agree with you to a point, but it's not my experience that speakers gain credibility and respect by giving good advice / showing good judgement / making accurate predictions. This would be true in traditional…
Is this just an exercise?
That didn't work in Canada, a supposedly liberal democracy. Trudeau enacted emergency powers and seized peoples bank accounts, what do you imagine Putin would do?
I have a hard time understanding why NATO keeps expanding despite the fact that the threat it was created to guard against collapsed 30+ years ago. I find the Russian demand that NATO not expand to Ukraine fairly…
I signed up for Spotify specifically to support Rogan.
Not a troll, appreciate you taking the time to respond. Believe the thread is too deep to respond directly to you. Another question if you have the time - what makes you trust one source over another? For instance when…
Can you highlight some of the BS?
If you watch the episodes that are controversial the citations are WHO or studies from Israel / Great Britain / Canada (I don't know them verbatim but this is what I remember - been a month or so). I would make the…
When you say crackpot you are referring to a highly published cardiologist and an epidemiologist whose work is used in the vaccine. In the world today actually being expert enough to work on teams that create a vaccine…
Did you actually watch the episodes in question? The big difference is that those Rogan has on actually have credentials to back up their claims, and they provide evidence in the form of studies, it is the opposite of…
I don't subscribe to Spotify for Neil Young or Jodi Mitchell, but I do for Joe Rogan. If he pulls back we will have no voice bringing alternative views. I really hate the media landscape today with its monochrome set of…
So why not un-socialize the medical system. Charge a premium for unvaccinated individuals. If I follow this train correctly the process is to declare health a right and therefore something run by the government, and…
You have to use something, SAT/ACT is at least something the individual can act on. A kid from any zip code can apply themselves and improve their chances. Using something like skin color or zip code is not something an…
There is a downside to some places as well. You have people moving into areas with high paying jobs and expectations of high cost in housing. The locals who have lived there for years are priced out of their own…
I grew up in Reagan's America, and I didn't find it paranoid or wretched. I remember a lot of optimism around the space program and the fall of the Berlin wall. There were great movies, great music, shopping malls,…
Just about everyone I know despises DST. There is some disagreement about what would become "standard time", but almost everyone wants it to end. The worst part of DST is the assumption that you can just reschedule a…
The other key is that each community decides for themselves what is permitted and not permitted. Some Amish are permitted to drive cars, but only if the car is black, but this is community specific. Source - my…
I have one question... Why?
Two things I would say about this... 1.) It's honest 2.) It's better than most modern / contemporary art
There seems to be some thought that society can force people to do what is deemed best without the awareness that... 1.) Society may not know what is best 2.) Even if it is the best option the push back will still exist…
Who would we give these controls to? Would this be the government? Hard pass on that. I do believe in controls, but those controls are best left to the individual. I don't need a bureaucrat telling my kids they can't…
I wouldn't pick this particular point in time to make a defense of "experts". This pandemic was likely caused by "experts" and if climate change is man-made then they caused that too. Wisdom and intelligence are two…
I have to disagree with you "experts" are wrong ALL THE TIME. Experts in every field at every level are wrong constantly. Watch ESPN and get the predictions for the outcome of games. On CNBC, you have experts giving…
