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→
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→
I know I’ve mentioned this before, but it’s just hysterical to watch it happen time and time again. The left has an infamously short memory and they simply forget when they do stupid things, while pointing out all of the stupid things done by the right.
I’ve been thinking about this a lot lately and frankly, I’m out of people to vote for. There’s an election coming up in a couple of weeks and, at the moment, I don’t think I can vote for anyone on the ballot in good conscience.
So, Matt put out a video, I’ll include it below the fold, where he talks about what atheists are supposedly fighting for. In theory, that’s not a bad topic and he does say some decent things about it that I’m perfectly fine with.
I came across this yet again on the latest episode of Truth Wanted, where co-host Dave Warnock decided to pretend that there’s only one side in any political debate.
Here’s something that I’ve noticed a lot lately and it goes a long way to showing just how clueless the political left actually are.
Now granted, the right aren’t much better at the moment, showing that the extremes on both sides need some serious professional help, but while the religious right is absurd, at least they have a memory longer than a goldfish Continue reading The Absurd Hypocritical Nature of the Left→
This came up in an atheist subreddit recently, where people were asking what’s stopping the world in general and humanity in particular from improving and my answer, as should be no surprise, is “stupid people”. It’s certainly more nuanced than that short answer, but I noticed that it was a pretty common answer to the thread.
I found myself in a discussion recently about critical race theory. Yes, I know, it was a waste of time, but that’s what passes for pseudo-intelligent discourse online these days. So here’s what I think about CRT and racism in general and why I think the whole underpinnings are just absurdly nonsensical. Feel free to disagree in the comments and let’s have a discussion.
