So, Racism (Unlike Gender) Is Defined at Birth?
The science of the left is “pseudo” at best, fiction – more often than not – and otherwise just mad. Failure is not only an option; it is a justification to push harder in all the wrong directions, as is a blatant contradiction like racism vs. gender.

Supporters and opponents of Critical Race Theory (CRT) debate the merits of teaching more about racism and slavery in schools. Some supporters of CRT have said, “opponents of CRT want our history white-washed.” They imply that some of what is taught in history is a lie.
“Socialism Is a Good Idea, but It Has Failed in the past Because It Has Been Badly Done” …
“It turns out that there is a lot of truth to the stereotype of the woke socialist millennial/Zoomer. The overwhelming majority of young people really do express stridently anti-capitalist views across a broad range of issues.
A Response to My Post on Robert Azzi’s screed in the Union Leader
This is from Robert Malaby, commenting on the post, “Is the Nackey Loeb School Ruing the Day It Gave Robert Azzi its First Amendment Award?” “What a repulsive piece from Mr. Azzi. Too many items to take issue with in a random internet comment, but two I feel compelled to address.”
John Robertson Was Prescient: July 4th – Independence Day Canceled.
In his Op-Ed for GraniteGrok (“The Birth of a Nation (and the death of another): Juneteenth National Independence Day”), he told us what our future history was going to be:
The Birth of a Nation (and the death of another): “Juneteenth National Independence Day”
Check out the above picture of the celebration when the bill establishing this “Juneteenth National Independence Day” passed the House. “White savior” Nancy in the middle. While I know that the folks on the left were not actually engaging in Nazi salutes,
Americans Can No Longer Remain Silent
Critical Race Theory is the latest element from the Left to promote hatred and division in America. It is completely racist itself and a total lie beginning to end. Consider:
Another “Native American” Decides to Push His Tribe Into Obscurity for “Honor’s” Sake

The D.C. Area Has Been Turned Into the Equivalent of the Baghdad “Green Zone”
I love learning military history and logistics. Why you might ask? Well, my family has a long history of service – beginning in the 17th century – but, when I was of the age to join the military, girls were pretty much restricted to typing and nursing, neither of which I thought suited me.

Palate Cleanser – and I Remember Dropping Trays of These

SCOTUS: A Brief History of the Politicization of the Supreme Court
Accusations fly back and forth between the political parties, each claiming the other is politicizing the United States Supreme Court. However, a brief look at the history of the Supreme Court establishes this is neither new nor novel.
Real New Englanders can’t stand new people
If you did a big dig on us “as people” up here, us natives, you’d see that we just have this long history of not liking new people. I read some history over in Vermont one time where they were talking about the differences between NH and VT and the writer told the story about the railroad coming up here and how this was really the beginning of what would become
Student Group Claims Racially Motivated Attacks on White People Are Not a Hate Crime
Two incidents involving the same individual(s) were recorded as hate crimes. Racial slurs were followed by acts of assault. The problem? The perpetrators in both cases were black, and the different victims were white. According to a student group, that’s not a hate crime.
Coronavirus and the Entrepreneur … David and Goliath
Michael Crawford is a former Walt Disney Co. executive. Crawford’s future is happy and without masks. It does not have people going out of their way to remain “6 FEET APART.” No more avoiding crowds on the supposition other people are a lethal threat all of the time. In short sanity rules.
