Read it to the end.

No, I have no idea.
1. I have no idea why he posted it.
2. I have no idea why he posted it in that thread.
3. I have no idea if the quoted material is real.
4. I have no idea why Dersh would be defending Charles Johnson.
5. I have no idea why he'd be defending Johnson to Gaetz.
6. I have no idea.
So apparently Johnson HAS worked for Dersh, and Dersh has defended him in the past. And of course Gaetz brought Johnson as a guest to the SOTU. motherjones.com/politics/2014/…
And yes, Chuck Johnson absolutely is a Holocaust denier.
"I do not and never have believed the six million figure. I agree with David Cole about Auschwitz and the gas chambers not being real." —Charles Johnson

Now I've got someone from Arizona in my mentions telling me that people who move to NYC aren't real New Yorkers.
92% of NYC cab drivers are immigrants. New Yorkers, every single one of them.
(You know who thinks that people who moved to NYC a year ago aren't real New Yorkers? People who moved to NYC two years ago.)

Imagine thinking John Lewis wasn't from the Deep South. Imagine saying it out loud. Imagine saying any of this out loud.
As a doctoral student in history, I had to train myself not to say "the South" when I meant "the white South," because the South is not just the white South, and never has been. America is not white America.
And this isn't just about race. Lloyd Doggett was born in Texas, to parents born in Texas. He was student body president at UT Austin, and a member of the Texas state legislature for 12 years. Of course he's from Texas.

Bullock's first-strike answer was horrifying. Disqualifying.
"No first use of nuclear weapons" should be a no-brainer. For Bullock to suggest that as president he'd use the threat of nuclear attack as a bargaining chip is appalling.
A couple of people have told me it's bad to make a #nofirstuse pledge because it limits the president's options. I asked them under what circumstances an American president should launch a nuclear first strike.

My friend @C_Stroop posted the this post. I responded:

In this Christian Chaplain’s opinion, if a Christian Chaplain is proselytising then they are NOT doing the job of a Christian Chaplain.

Someone else chimed in with “...we’re called to spread the Gospel...”

What follows is my response to that:

A Chaplain’s role is to be with a person in their time of need and provide spiritual and/or practical support without fear or favour. In other words...

... a good Christian Chaplain should be able to serve a Muslim, Hindu, Buddhist, Jew, Atheist or Christian of differing denomination and simply be Christ to them. In fact I would suggest...

#Thread: Inspired by the CBP Facebook revelations, I decided to take a look at the OUN-B affiliated U.S. Organization for Defense of Four Freedoms of Ukraine (ODFFU) Facebook group, which includes 610 people. In no particular order, here are some profiles that stuck out to me:
Dmytro Zhmailo, spokesman/executive director of Free People, member of Youth Nationalist Congress (MNK), and senior staff for Ukrainian MP Oleh Medunytsia, who himself chaired MNK 2002-2006. Among others, Zhmailo is FB friends with CUN leader S.Bratsiun.
Pavlo Podobied, head of the Ukrainian Institute of National Remembrance's Department for the Preservation of Places of Memory, according to Newsweek, has "accused Jews of being the main perpetrators of Soviet crimes against Ukrainians in the 1920s and 1930s." (1/2)

#Thread #Kurukshetra #Analytics #Mahabharata
Started a fun project of mine today. Recording the duels of Kurukshetra war in an excel sheet in anticipation of some interesting pattern. Watch this space for interesting tidbits. Full exercise may take quite a while
Interesting Results! #Kurukshatra #Analytics. So many duels without a declared result on Day One
Could record two general battles and 26 duels on Day One. Only 6 of those duels ended decisively. Pandava side suffered horribly in the hands of Bhishma. Uttara killed in the hands of Shalya. Saving grace being Abhimanyu countering Bhishma and winning over Brihadbala #Kurukshetra

How could you love us being together? He asked me "We are nothing alike and we are not meant for each other and we drive each other crazy. Do you really love that?
Are you satisfied?" So I told him I know that we're not meant for each other, that we drive each other crazy, and that we are different. But that's simply what keeps us going together. That's what we have; a wild nonsense.
We aren't sometimes in harmony together, but together we complete each other. I love us together this way just like this, two bodies in one soul. Whatever storms we pass through, they always end up being together. It is what we have! It's US.

The Real Reason They Hate Nuclear Is Because It Means We Don't Need Renewables

My latest column for @Forbes — please share!
forbes.com/sites/michaels…
@Forbes 1. Why is it that, from the U.S. and Canada to Spain and France, it is progressives and socialists who say to care deeply about the climate, not conservative climate skeptics, who are seeking to shut down nuclear plants?

forbes.com/sites/michaels…
@Forbes 2. After all, the two greatest successes when it comes to nuclear energy are Sweden and France, two nations held up by democratic socialists for decades as models of the kind of societies they want.
