People believed bullshit then just as much as they believe the pseudoscience now.
Logic seldom appears in their thought process. Just feelz. No science, no real evidence, no “studies” that have any merit:
Thus it is for the followers of the beliefs of RFK. No evidence, just what they want to believe. Especially about vaccines.
But truth maters not.
But the beginning of the recovery is at hand:
Mexico caves first, as expected
They need us much more than we need them….and ultimately, they know it.
All the rest is posturing.
Question:
Why can’t women find boyfriends that have a good fashion sense, are good communicators, in touch with their emotions, are kind and gentle and are nurturing?
Answer:
Those men already have boyfriends.
I’ve been travelling, and not able to do my normal web work…But listening to the news and the liberal media (but I repeat myself) comments and complaints about the remarks by Trump regarding DEI hires, I am struck by something:
They all, to a man (and yes, there are few liberal. black. or latin or hindu or oriental women being called to comment) all assume and appear to believe that the standards are always the same for all races, genders, sexual preference groups….and this just isn’t so.
Like Affirmative Action, DEI ends up, once you are no longer looking for excellence, but rather other metrics and qualifications…like gender or race or whatever, causing pressure to hire based on quotas means that standards must often be lowered to find enough individuals in those groups.
Are all black engineers less able than their white counterparts? Not at all, many are as or even MORE competent. Are all women air traffic controllers less competent than their white male coworkers? Nope. Some are excellent. Same with any group or any profession. There are great individuals and mediocre ones working in most fields. But not everyone is judged at the same standards.
When any organization chooses anything, like race or gender or sexual preference or religion as the primary metric, rather than a standard of competency, and lowers standards to meet some perceived or real quota, then the overall standard of merit is lowered for that organization.
And, again, like Affirmative Action in the 80’s, 90’s and the early oughts, one never knows if that non-white person is qualified and good at their job or a “Diversity Hire”.
Until and unless, the qualification standards are the same for everyone, no matter what the outcome of testing or recruitment, one will not approach any level standard of excellence. …and every “minority” will be looked at askance, and it will be assumed that they were hired for something other than merit.
So, do you want the best surgeon, the one that graduated first in her class at medical school, or the other guy who was passed because there were not enough brown skinned-left handed-gay people graduating? Yes, they are both called “Doctor” but did they really earn that title? Do you want that guy who they let graduate because of the color of his skin to take out your appendix? Or would prefer to know that the surgeon met standards of excellence before they cut into your belly? And yes, that is what Diversity, Equity and Inclusiveness is, no matter what it was intended to be…..the hiring based on metrics other than merit.
DEI has made it so that you never know if that person who is non -white has met those standards of excellence or not.
Gotta wonder how long it took to get that set up right, speed, angle etc.
THe reporters trying to ask a relevant question about a subject they don’t know anything about, or the “Officials: trying to answer without the knowledge to do so.
My heartfelt prayers for the folks lost in the tragic accident over the Potomac.
They beclown themselves
“Often, the loudest statement you can make is silence” (having said that, when people spout bullshit, you often have to call them on it….it is a judgement call)
“Look well into yourself…there is a source of strength which will be there if you look”
“If your achievements make people uncomfortable, that is not your problem to fix”
“Each defeat, each loss, each heartbreak, contains its own seed of a lesson on how to improve your future”
“You can’t change the past, But you Can change your tomorrow”
The Media, I mean, that deportations were highest under Biden, 20,000 more than the peak of the las Trump administration….
And it is true. Of course, the number of illegals in the country was nearly DOUBLE the amount under Trump. Nearly 4 times as many illegal entries.
It’s all in how you present the propaganda news.
They are using the American citizens as pawns:
Doing what they can to make President Trump look bad.
Seems that the Medicaid folks are playing idiot games. They deliberately misconstrued the meaning of a memo from Trump’s administration, and pre-emptively cut off Medicaid payments….and closed the Medicaid portals in all the states, even though funding is not cut off at the state levels at all. The lying bastards claimed it was Trump’s fault.
Really, we all need to realize that the “lack of funding” didn’t happen overnight,,,the States fund more than half of the budget of Medicaid. There was no “immediate funding crisis” caused by Trump’s Executive order, just one manufactured by the Deep State using the Medicaid recipients as pawns. Much like the National Parks closing unattended parks and facilities during the budget talks, it is all theater.
Heads should roll for this in every state where this happened.
Moreover, this happened in many states…This was a planned game they are playing: a conspiracy. This isn’t one person misconstruing the directions. This is a chance, an opening, for the folks like JD Pritzker to make their case against Donald Trump.
