Yes, traditionally humans have used oral narratives to pass on history. That’s how we have ended up forgetting so much actual history, because no one talks about the second-loudest guy, or, virtually ever, women or minorities. You can get a picture from that, but it’s not an accurate picture; it’s a story. Unfortunately, we’re getting to the point where there’s so much recorded data that it gets harder and harder to pull out the relevant. Let’s see what good indexing and AI do with it in the future will we start seeing more and more about how everything good comes from white men, with others contributing to “what white men started,” or will it be more and more that the complex machinery and systems of today evolved from a shitload of precedents and people. After all, even the wheel, the screw, and the inclined plane were once cutting-edge technology. Along with knives Wendy P. Wendy the analogy itself is nothing more than the typical neo marxist leftist narrative, I reject its premise as simply vindictive, divisive and racial. Besides, I've highlighted many minorities because of their Ideas, not their Identities. u dis'd dat shit doh I'm in favor of giving credit where it's do, better than giving credit where it isn't. If you were to simply edit the racial aspects and its animosity, we might be getting somewhere. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

We do the same, highlighting the ignorant no King protesters but they're in a different demo. lol CRT is that shaiza,I mentioned earlier, just because they can't articulate it at least they know it's against the American Creed, them doobies. The insertion of the laugh track typical. How long till meathead expires,lol Of course it gives the left his audience a sense of superiority,Nothing new in that. Probably another $50,000,000.00 loss.

What analogy? Anyway, it's always amusing when the modern racists claim they're not racist, they just oppose the modern civil rights movement that's become downright Marxist and Martin Luther King would be ashamed of them! But can anyone remember what the racist segregationists of the 50's and 60's said about Dr King? Oh yeah... they called him a Marxist. Plus ça change, plus c'est la même chose.

The evidence you use to support your ideas, like You-Tube videos are largely ignored because they purport garbage theories. When you gather facts from conspiracy, MAGA sources instead of real facts. Those who believe in science, economics, history and the opinions of a real majority. Will see little of relevance, of seriousness in such positions. I'm surprised that Billvon gives serious replies to your positions. I'm not as impatient as John to block your posts. But like a drunk in a restaurant who insists upon yelling obnoxious unrelated statements at those around you. Tuning out the source is the majority option. Note: anyone who "believes in" science doesn't understand science. Skepticism is at the core of science. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

People I knew whose dissertations resulted in later research invalidating their conclusions are still called "Doctor."

Since a change in scientific thinking and theory seems to discount fundamental science for yourself. You should be happy with Trump and the EPA. Lee Zeldin, the administrator of the Environmental Protection Agency,said the E.P.A. planned to rescind the 2009 declaration, known as the endangerment finding, which concluded that planet-warming greenhouse gases pose a threat to public health. “The proposal would, if finalized, amount to the largest deregulatory action in the history of the United States,” Mr. Zeldin said. He said the proposal would also erase limits on greenhouse gas emissions from cars and trucks on the nation’s roads. Without the endangerment finding, the E.P.A. would be left with no authority under the Clean Air Act to regulate the greenhouse gas emissions that are accumulating in the atmosphere from the burning of fossil fuels." Thankfully Trump's other global warming ideas like everything else in Trump's life has hit the skids. He promised a new America renaissance in oil production with "drill baby drill" as his motto. But as the above graph shows the rig count of rigs in operation is in freefall. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
