Human as its own word, not as a derivative for others---and in its own, separate, unmodified context---has a specific, insipid connotation, compared to humanitarian, "human touch,"…

The greatest irony is they're just another throwback to Platonic thinking, and completely---I mean truly---worthless in practical application (i.e real life, vs. academic theory). …

Entire generations of people, forcibly made less literate, and unable to find out their culture's past. With this detachment from their history, their tradition has been rewritten …

You write good stuff. Are you on amphetamines, or do you just have so much time and inclination to sit down and write all you do? Frankly, I am in awe at the quality of your posts.…

Felix Dennis was "on the dole" (welfare) and wasn't born into riches -- unlike Elon. Read the book. It's available on LibGen, and is absolutely worth coming back again to -- if you…

There's an irony here. It's almost as if the code is a parody of the unwritten one we have in the U.S, albeit more on the nose. > So a weak elected legeslative body and a strong in…

I think deferring to reason is a nouveau fad among men of letters -- as if it's some truth machine; wherein one inputs one's observations and, by the grace of reason, out pops "wha…
