Adar: I believe that during the Vietnam War entire column of elephants was massacred by American artillery. Men elephants were carrying supplies for the vc fog lifted in the morning right in front of the artillery position, with the elephants in Plainview so direct fire massacre them all. But for the old ways
Ezra: The shaman stuff works only if you believe it works one of the reasons the US military lost the Vietnam War is because the Vietnamese soldier very quickly understood that the American man has an excessive obsession with the size of his reproductive organ in a Vietnamese culture. Such persons are said to be silly, childish, and naïve enough to be listening to. Yes, it is so.
McChuck: Even the mentally retarded can hold conversations. Speaking without thought is what most people do on a regular basis.
Jim: Literally everything is a corporation, nigga. The East India Company was a corporation; the City of London is a corporation preceding William the Conqueror and predating Norman England and to this day immune to the King of England’s authority; the immensely powerful Hudson’s Bay Company was incorporated by English royal charter back in 1677; the United States, for the purpose of federal debt collection, is a corporation (28 USC 3002(15)(A)); your municipal government—which employs police officers to...
Pseudo-Chrysostom: ”A government is merely the paramount corporation.” The audience may take note of the slipperiness of definitions that is customary when dealing with wordcels: take a word with certain connotations in a certain parochial context, expand that definition to a new context, but without updating the connotations in accordance with the new use-case, in hopes of taking advantage of the old connotations in application in the new context for rhetorical advantage. Much like how an atheist...
Jim: That’s an excellent point, Ezra. Fortunately, we can completely solve the malaria problem by repopulating Africa with Swedes. This plan, properly executed, will be very much like the triumphant return of the horse to the Great Plains of North America.
Jim: Dan Kurt: Absolutely, unimpeachably true. People have absolutely no idea how bad it is. The teachers are, to a woman, illiterate, innumerate, and utterly uncultured. If you have children and you are sending them to school, public or private, you are aiding and abetting your blood’s intellectual defenestration and otherwise committing heinous child abuse. I was, as a child, sent to both, and I speak from firsthand experience: the paramount aim of the school system is to waste the youth of the youth....
Dan Kurt: RE: High School Teachers to be Place: A State College Students: All White, almost Class: Linear Algebra circa twenty five years ago 1st test being returned Professor: As he is handing back graded tests he said: the six student who don’t get a test come up at the end of today’s class. At that time after cllas the six students were in front of the professer who asked: “Who are you and what are you doing here?” Education Student: We are education students who will be...
John Smith: So in other words, US Air Bases are sitting ducks.
John Smith: There are many books which can perhaps be read in a week but not understood that quickly. Most math textbooks, for example.
Michael van der Riet: I re-read Steven Pinker’s How The Mind Works (mine only works at Pop Science level) then went online to see what has changed in the cognitive sciences in the intervening 27 years. The answer is, not much that I could detect.
McChuck: Ignore Dave’s statement about electricity. That being said, scientific errors abound. Generally not in the math, though. Their explanations are often quite terrible. (The Copenhagen Interpretation being a prime offender and cause of much of the “woo woo”.) The problem is that to explain complex topics, the expert has to dumb down the explanation to the level of the audience’s knowledge and experience. That often twists things out of focus so badly that the audience often...
Gavin Longmuir: “The missile can either be hypersonic or low observable but not both in tandem,” wrote Kaushal. Those grapes are sour, I tell you. Sour!
Harry Jones: “More visible to radar” I take it “blocks radar signals” means deflects, not absorbs. The wave front itself will show up on radar. https://www.ucsusa.org/a bout/news/new-report-hyp ersonic-weapons-offer-fe w-advantages
Ezra: Malaria in particular? Half of all humans that have ever lived [about 100 billion] have either died from malaria or from malaria complications.
bob sykes: The real point, however, is that both Russia and China have deployed operational hypersonic missiles, and Russia has used them in combat. The US is still trying to develop hypersonics, and probably won’t deploy them for several years. Thirty years of chasing down Muslim peasants cost us several thousand lives and several tens of thousands of cripples. We also spent up to $7 trillion on the project, and in the process we lost our technological leads in many area, and now trail the...
Dave: This is true, but the problem is many things are either partially, mostly, or entirely wrong. For instance, most of astronomy is based on gravity being the prime mover, when the evidence is overwhelming that it’s electricity (www.thunderbolts.info has all the receipts). These sorts of fundamental errors lead to subsequent errors, such as the need to create “dark matter”, which doesn’t exist… Except in the minds of those needing to preserve their false assumptions....
Jim: A government is merely the paramount corporation. A king of one hundred has more in common with a king of one hundred thousand than he does with his own viceroy. Once you’ve organized yourself out of a wet paper bag (your email job), be sure to let me know. I’ll congratulate you on your successful absconsion from another man’s corporate plantation to find safe harbor on your own corporate plantation, and I’ll mean it, too.
