Looks like we are having another guest surge. Makes me happy, but I am easily amused.

I didn't see a Critical Race Theory thread or I would have posted this there.
"It is self-destructive for any society to create a situation where a baby who is born into the world today automatically has pre-existing grievances against another baby born at the same time, because of what their ancestors did centuries ago." Thomas Sowell
"Racism is not dead, but it is on life support -- kept alive by politicians, race hustlers and people who get a sense of superiority by denouncing others as 'racists'" Thomas Sowell

What I'm hearing is that critical race theory is racist. Maybe. If you look back at my posts, you will see I have rarely accused anyone of being a racist. It's too easy and subjective. I like Japanese culture and everyone knows how racist they are so what can I say? As I've probably said before, I don't get offended when people criticize white people because I'm not white, I'm Irish. I only get offended when people hear I listen to talk radio and tell me I might secretly be getting persuaded by their BS. How dumb do they think I am?

For some reason I thought the saying “The truth shall set you free” was probably from some cheesy Enlightenment guy. Apparently it’s from Jesus himself. What nonsense.

773 guests in the last 24 hours. It’s tough being so popular.

Ha-ha! Another guest surge. I love it, no matter what it really means.

It was eighty years ago today that the Battle of Midway was fought, the high tide of the Japanese effort to control the Western Pacific and East Asia. It took a further three years and nuclear weapons for America to emerge victorious. Who knew most of us would be driving Japanese cars? But it also freed China from Japanese dominance to start China’s rise to be another economic powerhouse, along with Korea. And America would end up fighting in Korea and Vietnam to prevent their unification. Only by chance I avoided participating. Now there is a chance a younger American generation may be forced to participate in a war over Taiwan. Why, I don’t know.

At one time might have been amused at the Speaker of the House circus, but now it seems of so little importance which corrupt idiot is in the top spot.

I changed my mind. The buffoonery going on in the House is quite amusing.

As usual, I am late to the party. I’ve only just realized that religion is all politics.. it was the persecution of “pro-Russian” clergy in the Ukraine that clicked a switch in my brain. Now I will have to rethink a lot of issues.

Has a thread about G7 $ G20 for a day but soon realized I didn’t care about what those bozos had to say and I had nothing to say about them.

I love the way right wingers run together like lemmings. First they pounce on Bud Light, then they go ga-ga over Sound of Freedom, and now they drive “Rich Men North of Richmond” to the top of the charts. I’m not sure how many of them there are but they act like a herd.

We seeem to be having one of those mysterious bursts of viewers on this site. Maybe it’s Chinese fleeing Meta. Don’t worry, you are welcome here. I think. Say hello to Xi for me. Have him send me some foreign aid. I’m easily bought.

Well, if you want to piss off conservatives worldwide (and who doesn’t?) nothing is better than encouraging migration. Payback ack is a bitch.

Today in history: Sinead O’Conner was born, John Lennon died.
