Hmmm can I imagine a situation that would a greater threat to freedom than diversity boy oh boy that is a toughie. Image
I mean there probably are worse affronts to freedom possible for the U of Illinois than diversity statements, but I just can't put my finger on what they might be. Image
Nope, just can't think of a single thing. Image

1/ I'm super tired of the whole Joe Rogan thing. But because I listened to the episodes in questionI feel the need to push back against this "he's just an inquiring mind" argument. Because if you see someone making it, my guess is that either they haven't listened to the episodes
2/ or they're speaking to you in bad faith.

In the episodes I with McCullough and Malone, Rogan does indeed 'ask questions.' But most often he asks them in leading ways, laying out in advance what answers he's looking to get. sand even when he doesn't, when he asks straight up
3/ questions, it doesn't matter what his guests say, How quickly agrees with them and amplifies what they're saying.

And we should be very clear about what it is the guests are saying and what Joe is amplifying, because it isn't "it's OK not to wear masks outside" or some such.

People who think the thing about Fox News, Talk Radio, and most online conservative media is that they have a "post of view" have either never sampled them or are being willfully obtuse.

The problem isn't they have a "POV," it's that they just make s**t up.
Barack Obama was never born in Kenya. Hilary Clinton never had Parkinson's Disease. Joe Biden was never in a vegetative stake where all he could do was drool. Jan 6th was never a crisis-actor, Deep State Red Flag operation to tar Trump's good name.

1/ This weekend I watched The Wall for the first time since I was in college, and I gotta tell you it is a *very* different movie in 2021 than it was in 1982. It almost feels like a movie that *was* made in 2021.
2/ If you haven't seen the movie, based on the Pink Floyd album of the same name, it's about a man who grew up without a father who grows up to be a rich and famous rock star. He's had some difficulties thrust upon him - his father died in the war, a teacher mocked his poetry -
3/ but most of his difficulties were self-inflicted: self-absorbed, drug abuse, being a s**ty & likely abusive husband, violent against female fans, etc. But he *was* successful.

But at some point he decides that all of his self-inflicted problems are caused by others.

1/ I tweeted some screenshots of a thread that (I think?) was tongue in cheek. And so I guess it's time to piss a lot of people off and talk about Idaho - or to be more precise, the way those of us in the PNW look at the way people who don't when they talk about Idaho.
2/ For whatever reason, over the past decade or so Idaho has become the place where people (and by people I mean 'men') of a certain age & demographic threaten to move to now that their state doesn't "like like it did before" anymore.
3/ You might think this would have led to a massive influx in population, but it hasn't - mostly because Idaho is more a place that people *threaten* to move to than actually move to. And all things considered, that's probably a good thing. I mean, Idaho's population is only
