The problem with these ‘more radical than thou’ contests is that the organization itself loses. That’s why the student ‘uprisings’ never accomplished anything.

If you ever read any of the memoirs of adventures among 1960s radicals and students, you get an uncanny feeling that we’ve seen all of this before.

The liberal media hate machine was running at full steam on Sunday in the wake of two mass shootings the left wanted to blame President Trump for. According to frequent NBC and MSNBC guest, radical Princeton professor Eddie Glaude, not only should we condemn the President but we also needed to condemn anyone who used the term “illegal immigrant”

If we can just get rid of these pesky facts and make people see the Emperor’s clothes, all will be hunky-dory.

Interview on C-SPAN.

Kevin dislikes a lot of the same people that I do, so I find his views very agreeable.

Kevin’s basic problem is that he’s a libertarian, and libertarians are (like proglodytes) heirs of Rousseau, people who think that the individual is an autonomous ‘unit’ both socially and economically. The heirs of Rousseau think of existing social relationships that form a culture are like cobwebs, sticky encumbrances that need to be brushed off so that units can go cleanly and efficiently about their business of rationally re-ordering human relationships according to the really excellent plan they’ve just come up with and not sticking with the messy and ugly relationships that ‘just grew’ through historical processes.

Libertarians are better than most Rousseauians but they assume that because individuals are autonomous economic units, which is fairly accurate in the First World (there aren’t a lot of libertarians outside of the First World), they are therefore autonomous social units, which is patently false. Each individual is firmly embedded in a web os social relationships extending from family/friends outward in progressively larger circles until they encompass the entire planet. This is true from cradle to grave; the only way to escape such webs is to dive into the jungles of the Amazon rainforest and spend every waking hour avoiding other humans. Society is like gravity — if you and another human are close enough to interact, you have a relationship whether you like it or not, and the only thing undetermined is what the exact nature of the relationship will be.

Libertarians, like proglodytes, are so in love with their mechanistic, rationalistic view of the world that they never pause to examine how things work in reality, but rather live in a fantasy land where their dreams will come true if they find the right star on which to wish. A lot of them realize this, consciously or not, so libertarianism winds up as a broad smear ranging from libertarianish conservatives near the middle right the way out to radical libertarians on the lunatic fringe. This is why there is no significant libertarian political movement, and why the various Libertarian Parties are such a joke.

But just because they don’t have any of the right answers doesn’t impair the fact that libertarians are pretty good at coming up with uncomfortable questions for the rest of us. And Kevin is very good at that.

Of course, now that Arabic is the key language for career advancement in places that have no sign out front and a large eagle emblem in the lobby, the civilian programs have begun started to attract the kinds of calculating douchebags who used to make studying Russian so unpleasant. They are still in the minority, but having even one of these guys (and they’re always guys) in your class can lead to needless suffering.

I know some of those guys.

Nearly all Arabic words consist of a three-consonant root slotted into a pattern of vowels and helper consonants. The root gives the word its base meaning, while the pattern modifies this meaning in a systematic and predictable way. This idea is so cool that you’d think it came from a constructed language, and yet Arabic has actual native speakers who live completely normal lives and will not try to talk to you about Runescape.

Arabic rivals Greek in its suitability for theological discussion.

Harris came out of the first debate the clear winner and Gabbard cut her down to size with one of the single best minutes of political television since Donald Trump told Hillary Clinton, “Because you’d be in jail.”

Gabbard’s takedown of Harris was so spot on and her closing statement about the irresponsible nature of the Trump Administration’s foreign policy was so powerful she had to be actively suppressed on Twitter.

And, within minutes of the debate ending the media and the political machines moved into overdrive to smear her as a Russian agent, an Assad apologist and a favorite of the alt-right.

Rush Limbaugh has made the same point. Harris is, of course, the DemLegHump Media candidate, and anybody getting in her way is in for a thrashing.

A federal judge blocked New York state from turning over President Donald Trump’s tax returns to Congress Thursday.

The order from Judge Carl Nichols, a Trump appointee, came in agreement to a proposal from the state that would allow it to challenge Nichols’ jurisdiction over the issue, Politico reported Thursday.

The order will block any House Ways and Means Committee requests for the tax returns via the New York law until the jurisdictional dispute is resolved.

During Wednesday’s edition of The Beat With Ari Melber, the eponymous host shared some “new information and context for President Trump’s race-baiting rhetoric and discriminatory policies.” This “new information” came in the form of indefensible comments from then-California governor and future President Ronald Reagan and the then-President Richard Nixon, which Melber gleefully used as a lynchpin to attack Republicans and conservatives as racist.

EXCEPT THAT Trump isn’t really a conservative — ask anybody at National Review — and isn’t really even a Republican — ask Mitt Romney.

Other than that, he’s nailed it.
