Congressional GOP Must Scrutinize Biden's Age, Demand Action
Post Date: 2023-06-06 18:18:46 by Charles_Byrd
0 Comments
For the entirety of his 2020 presidential campaign and the 28 months of his presidency, Joe Biden has not appeared entirely well. During the 2020 campaign, he was so feeble that his political handlers seemingly kept him locked in a basement. His public events were infrequent and his rare media interviews were usually marked with embarrassing gaffes. Click for Full Text!

30 Conservatarian Maxims in the Style of Baltasar Gracian

Baltasar Gracián was a Spanish Jesuit and writer born in 1601 and died in 1658. He is best known for his work “The Art of Worldly Wisdom” (El arte de la prudencia), which was published in 1647. “The Art of Worldly Wisdom” is a collection of aphorisms and practical advice aimed at guiding individuals in navigating the complexities of social and professional life. Gracián emphasizes the importance of prudence, tact, and self-awareness in dealing with others and achieving personal success. The book offers insights on various topics such as leadership, decision-making, communication, and the cultivation of good judgment. Click for Full Text!

Opposing Critical Race Theory Doesn't Make You a "White Supremacist"
Post Date: 2023-06-02 17:21:23 by Charles_Byrd
0 Comments
Kimberlé Crenshaw, one of the founders of Critical Race Theory, recently decried what she called the "war on wokeness" (by which she seems to mean, a war on CRT). According to her, this "war on wokeness" is "the road to an authoritarian state that’s paved through the history of white supremacy." It's true that the "war on wokeness" has taken on authoritarian overtones of late. Many Republicans are rejecting the ideas of pluralism and free speech that underpin the American ideal and pushing through broad laws aimed at banning the teachings of CRT. In their desire to stop "wokeness" these laws often muzzle dissenters, and are ...

The Attack on the Western Tradition
Post Date: 2023-06-02 00:04:41 by Charles_Byrd
0 Comments
We are faced today with a concentrated attack on the great thinkers of the Western tradition, who are dismissed as “dead white European males.” Robert Nozick used to say that what offended him most in this phrase was the word “dead.” It’s not nice to beat up on people who can’t fight back because they are no longer here! But the attack I’m talking about is no joke. A free society depends on certain principles, and Western thinkers played a major role in their development, though they have counterparts in other civilizations as well. And there is something even more essential. In order to find out about the principles of a free society, we need to think. We ...

He didn’t look at all as I had expected. I traversed the quiet room and found a portly older gentleman, immaculately and rather formally dressed – a finely spun woolen Navy blue suit, slightly lighter blue tie, starched collar and cuffs. He seemed quite comfortable and turned a kindly, inviting smile towards me as I advanced. “You seem surprised,” he purred. His voice was light and easy on the ears. “You didn’t expect horns and a tail, did you?” he chuckled. Click for Full Text!

The federal government recently revealed that at least 50 U.S. government personnel working in 10 foreign countries have had their mobile devices hacked by unknown parties employed software known as “zero-click.” The zero-click product, Pegasus, is manufactured by an Israeli high-tech company, NSO Group. Pegasus enables the user to download the contents of the target’s mobile device or desktop without having to trick the target into clicking on a link. It also enables the user to follow the person in possession of the device, capturing all texts and emails and listening to conversations on the device or that take place near it.

Is Unlocking Closed and Indifferent Minds Possible?
Post Date: 2023-05-21 00:32:20 by Charles_Byrd
0 Comments
As should be very apparent, this is a contentious subject, a double edged sword of sorts, and one that requires open and honest explanation. It should be obvious, but it is not, that no one can forcibly open another’s closed mind, or tame and stifle his indifference. No matter the power wielded, no matter the desired intent, no matter a gallant effort, wasted or not; each person is a unique individual, regardless of his collective desires, or his cowardice in the face of adversity and human suffering. Each of us has to come to his own conclusions, right or wrong, and while it is noble to attempt to educate and bring forth some truth and reason to those lacking the initiative to ...

You Don’t Have To Choose Between Happiness and Being Informed

I write about some dark, dark things in this space, and it’s common to receive expressions of despair in response to the subjects I focus on. This is perfectly understandable. Not only is our world hurtling toward nuclear armageddon and environmental collapse while surging authoritarianism threatens our ability to even talk about these things with each other, but most people are completely oblivious to it all. Even relatively politically engaged people tend to believe society’s biggest problems are things like sexism or drag shows, and they generally support one of the two mainstream political factions who are both driving us toward destruction.

The Great Left-Wing Disinformation Operation Against the Supreme Court
Post Date: 2023-05-14 21:29:16 by Charles_Byrd
0 Comments
The past five weeks has seen a flurry of media activity, clearly coordinated, against the right-of-center U.S. Supreme Court. First, the outlet ProPublica began publishing a series of pieces “exposing” the well-known fact of Justice Clarence Thomas’ long-running friendship with billionaire real estate tycoon Harlan Crow, and alleging ethical improprieties pertaining to the justice’s purported failure to disclose certain information. Second, Politico alleged a conflict of interest for Justice Neil Gorsuch in an old real estate transaction in his native Colorado that involved the CEO of a major law firm. Third, Business Insider relied on a “whistleblower” to ...

Whatever Happened to the American Way?

Superman’s mantra goes, “Truth, justice, and …” what? The phrase that fills this blank used to be universally agreed upon. It was, after all, introduced in the classic Superman radio serial only two years after the character’s 1938 debut. The 1940s mantra certainly fit its time: With America in the thick of World War II and the ideals of liberty and democracy under threat on nearly every continent, it was only natural that the United States’ greatest hero would stand for some of the country’s core values: Truth, justice, and the American way.

Since When Do Politicians Believe That Americans Should Have Personal Freedom?

In his announcement that he would be running for president again, Joe Biden maintained that “MAGA extremists” want to take on Americans’ bedrock freedoms, dictate what healthcare decisions women can make, ban books, and tell people whom they can love. “Personal freedom is fundamental to who we are as Americans, there is nothing more important, nothing more sacred,” said Biden in his video announcement. I agree strongly with what the president said about personal freedom. Click for Full Text!

Now that the overlapping crises are upon us and the banquet of consequences is being served, we'll see just who our elites and leadership really are. The erosion of trust doesn't require intent, it only requires the blind pursuit of self-interest above all else. Trust is fundamentally reciprocity and honesty: to build trust, we must each perform our agreed- upon responsibilities and be truthful about our performance and actions. Click for Full Text!

Everyone knows about Tucker Carlson having been summarily fired – let’s use honest language – from his gig over at Fox News, where he had the most successful show of its kind on network TV. That a hugely successful show was cancelled – which will cost Fox ratings, viewership and money – speaks volumes about what drives corporate policy in these latter days. It is of a piece with Stellantis – the corporation that owns the Dodge, Chrysler, Jeep and Ram truck brands – cancelling the hugely successful Hemi V8 that was the chief reason people bought Dodges, Chryslers, Jeeps and Ram trucks. To be replaced by battery-powered devices few people want. Click for ...

Grice’s Maxims: Rules for Effective Conversation
Post Date: 2023-04-28 06:39:18 by Charles_Byrd

For most of us, conversation is an intuitive, passive practice. We’re used to the contours of natural speech and writing, and we often make contributions to everyday interactions almost without thinking. Our habits of communication can come as natural as breathing. But when communication breaks down, there’s always the question of where things went wrong. How did we manage to confuse others when trying to convey key information? Or how did a friendly debate turn into a shouting match? With how important conversation and communication are to our lives, it’s surprising how little we think about them. But before we get to the point where communication goes sideways, a set of ...

The dastardly difference between 'equity' and 'equality'

Liberals sounding the clarion call to embrace diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) and Black Lives Matter (BLM) have demonstrated some glaring missteps in how eagerly they support such initiatives or in their understanding of the application of the ideology itself. The difference between "equity," as delineated in DEI, and "equality," as delineated in our Constitution, must be understood. Click for Full Text!

My late father was what you might call a secretly brilliant country boy. “Rick” was a big fat man with a salt-and-pepper beard and a baritone voice. He loved to fiddle with cars, so he wore grime-stained clothes. When he got angry, all manner of colorful things flew out of his mouth. There was no mistaking him for a doctor, lawyer, or college professor. Click for Full Text!

Review: Endangered Documentary Exaggerates Threats to U.S. Journalists
Post Date: 2023-04-22 01:18:25 by Charles_Byrd

In Belarus, the government imprisons journalists for covering opposition politicians. In Mexico, more than 100 journalists have been murdered since 2000; nearly all those cases remain unsolved. In the United States, a British reporter is unnerved by encounters with hostile Donald Trump supporters. One of these things is not like the others. In the HBO documentary Endangered, directors Heidi Ewing and Rachel Grady nevertheless present them all as evidence of the hazards that reporters and photographers face today, even in "democratic countries where freedom of the press has historically been considered a 'given.'"
