Maybe It’s Just Interpretation?

I’ve been thinking about this a lot lately and frankly, I’m not at all convinced about some of the claims that we’re seeing. Recently, I heard that hate crimes were up year over year and they tried to blame Trump and the conservative right.

Yeah, maybe there’s another explanation that they don’t want to consider? Maybe, it’s all a load of complete bullshit. Continue reading Maybe It’s Just Interpretation?

Prove Your Case!

I was going to write a post on this anyhow, but it came up on a recent video in the comments and I wanted to explain my position in a way that’s really not amenable to YouTube commentary debates.

There was a recent news story that “hate crimes” are on the rise and, of course, the left-leaning media is blaming it all on Trump. What else is new?

The problem is, they can’t actually back that up in any real way. So let’s have a chat. Continue reading Prove Your Case!

Everything Viced Rhino Gets Wrong

I don’t typically do Christmas posts. I have in the past, I’ve also done Christmas-themed videos, but how much can you really say about a holiday that never changes? Therefore, at least online, I pretty much ignore all holidays because I’ve said what I have to say.

However, Viced Rhino did a video on Christmas and there’s a lot of problems in it that I wanted to address. I think this is another case of only looking at things from your own side.

So here we go. Continue reading Everything Viced Rhino Gets Wrong

My Thoughts on Gay and Transgender Issues

I just finished up making a video where this came up, and therein, I said I wasn’t going to go into it because it was going too far afield. Therefore, I figured before that came out, sometime at the tail end of January, I figure, I’d post my thoughts here on the blog for all to see.

Let’s get to it. Continue reading My Thoughts on Gay and Transgender Issues

Absurd Political Ads

I do my level best not to pay any attention to politics these days. It’s all crap, no matter what side you’re on and I’ve got better things to do  than bother with it. All political advertising goes straight into the trash without being looked at. I’ve started to tell people who call that I’m actively voting against anyone whose followers bother me. Most of the time, they just hang up.

That said though, sometimes it’s hard to avoid the terrible crap and that comes almost entirely from the left. I just wanted to look at two or three of them. Continue reading Absurd Political Ads

More Blindness in Media

I just keep running into these things and it’s bizarre how people can’t see that their own side is doing all of this too. It doesn’t matter if you’re talking about the left, whining about the right or vice versa, both extremes are doing the same damn  thing and can’t see what they’re doing in the mirror.

I’ll keep this one short, it’s just another example, but let’s talk about it. Continue reading More Blindness in Media

Where I Disagree with Thomas Sowell

I like Thomas Sowell in general, but even he has some problems, some blind spots that I think are endemic to social and political thinking and need to be pointed out.

Therefore, here I go, as I did in the comments on one of his videos, pointing out that it’s not just the left that have issues. The right is every bit as bad. Continue reading Where I Disagree with Thomas Sowell
