Make peace, idiots?
Doing some Youtube web surfing, they gave me a bunch of WW II videos. Several things stood out. One thing was how Hitler and the Axis made decisions based on ideology rather than strategic advantage. America was run by blacks and Jews, therefore it was safe and proper for Germany to declare war in 1...

Civil War?
Watching the blue MSM last night, they emphasized a couple of minor things. The first was sleeping babies. Apparently, just around the corner from the main entrance to the court, there was so little noise that it was easy to fall asleep. Turns out there were less than a few dozen each of Trump suppo...

Anyone's Fool?
Not now, so your sentiment is generally correct. Here's the thing, there's obviously only so much Mr. Trump can control (they did kick him out after all). I think he gets back in and then they sabotage him again - in 2026. That's my current prediction. Trump has been burned once, but I don't think ...

Patriot's Day
The third Monday of April is traditionally celebrated in Massachusetts as Patriot's Day, commemorating the battles of Lexington and Concord which opened the Revolutionary War. This year? Trump goes on trial in New York? Tax day? Not sure it is in the right spirit. The Revolution was a fine crisis. I...

Re: Defining Terms
The narrative is that we are leading the charge to a better tomorrow at net zero without fossil fuels. The reality is that the US and other developed economies are no longer competitive enough to take the lion's share of the world's fossil fuels. The narrative helps to keep perceptions from catchin...

Dollar Store Closed?
Apparently, this was a problem with one store a while ago. After a few hours, they shifted employees from other stores and reopened.

Perception of Superiority
The basic reasons why Europeans became dominant were summed up in Jared Diamond’s book Guns Germs and Steel . With these, they were able to implement colonial imperialism and thus gain advantage over other cultures. It is not due to superior culture, religion or genes. (He also wrote a book called C...

Taiwan
Doubt it. The time for recovery from an earthquake is small compared to the time to gather forces for an invasion. If China were to give a fast go, it would be picked up from space right quick.Tom Mazanec wrote: ↑Wed Apr 03, 2024 7:13 pmDoes the Taiwan earthquake make an invasion more likely?
