"The Great Iggy:

• Let's say you have a room that is half full of irresponsible, bratty, minor and somewhat slow children and half full of normal adults.

The adults sit back and are cowed by the toddlers who proceed to break everything the adults built and scream and squawk and mess their pants and take their clothes off and pee in the corner and generally construct this absurd fantasy world that they demand the adults indulge and pretend is a legitimate worldview even though it leads to a situation where some of the brats but even more of the adults are harmed and eventually some even killed.
Who is primarily to blame for the situation that room is in?
We have allowed this to happen by being cowed. 

Every time we bite our tongue so as not to offend some infantile pinko, relative or stranger, who makes no effort to control his or her own tongue we are contributing to this disaster. 

And every time we speak up and let ourselves be shouted down by some retarded punk we are contributing to it.
It's as if when the adults arrived at the Lord of the Flies island, they let themselves be captured and roasted on the little creeps spit rather than putting the little maggots back in their place.
The adults need to take back the place from the punks before they get us all killed. 

The only thing stopping us is our wholly unjustified timidity in the face of their tantrums."

We’ve Got a Way Bigger Problem than “Disinformation”

"...Apparently, the FDA and the NY Times have decided that Joe Mercola is guilty of what’s turning out to be the defining sin of the 21st century: Disinformation.

I wonder if that word scares you as much as it does me.

...Re-education? 

Disinformation? 

It sounds like North Korea to me. 

The entire concept should be chilling to any American, and I don’t care where you stand on vaccination—or on anything else!

...The minute you accept the notion of “disinformation” you automatically buy into the notion that there’s one truth. 

...Who decides what the “truth” is going to be? 

And…for how long it’s going to be “true”?...Read all!

The Morning Briefing: The Odds on Biden Ever Getting Anything Right Are Horrible

The Morning Briefing: The Odds on Biden Ever Getting Anything Right Are Horrible

During our VIP Gold Live Chat last Thursday, Bryan, VodkaPundit, and I were running over the myriad ways in which Joe Biden and his handlers screwed up the decision-making process regarding the withdrawal from Afghanistan. It’s truly stunning in scope. 

It’s so bad, they were all probably wearing mismatched socks while “planning” this debacle.

My firm belief is that, even though these are dark days, we’re going to be just fine. Just not anytime soon. 

There is nothing on the horizon to suggest that this administration is ever going to get anything right...Read all.

Sensing Online: What will you do when they come for you?

"...There is a looming, severe cop shortage in cities across the country. 

Police who want to stay in the biz are fleeing to rural counties, but those counties have only so many slots. 

We will see the day when dialing 9-1-1 will basically be met with silence. 

What will you do then?

The wealthy are already hiring former cops or military to protect them ("Luxury apartment buildings in New York City are hiring armed security to protect wealthy residents amid fear of election day unrest"). 

I mean, Jeff Bezos will not need to call 9-1-1, let's face it. 

But you and I? 

It will be open season on us by a growing and emboldened criminal class, which will be free to range far outside their present working area. 

Your quiet, no-crime suburb will not stay that way. 

And the poor, including black Americans whose lives are supposed to matter, will suffer perhaps worst of all. 

Do you want to defund or abolish police? 

Okay, fine. 

I hope you find a way to abolish criminals, too. 

If you don't, what will you do when they come for you?...Read all.

The Media Whitewashes Biden’s Afghanistan Blunders

The Media Whitewashes Biden’s Afghanistan Blunders

• The media scrutiny to which he has been briefly subjected is already ebbing.

"When the Biden administration’s feckless management of the U.S. withdrawal from Afghanistan produced all too predictable chaos, the legacy media uncharacteristically reported on the debacle with remarkable candor. This was unsettling to a White House inured to obsequious coverage.

...it is abundantly clear that Biden studiously ignored advice from his military and national security advisors in order to adhere to his self-imposed withdrawal date of August 31.

• ...yet many in the media clearly yearn to absolve Biden of responsibility for his incompetent and deadly withdrawal. 
• Many insist that the real culprit is the man he replaced seven months ago. 

Even as the bodies were being counted in Kabul, NBC News published an opinion column by Sébastien Roblin titled, “The Afghanistan airport explosion happened under Biden but traces back to Trump.”...Read all.

We’re told to ‘follow the science’ — yet some of it is just plain wrong--Glenn Harlan Reynolds

We’re told to ‘follow the science’ — yet some of it is just plain wrong

• 
  In recent years, there have been a lot of catchphrases around science: “Follow the science!” “We believe in science!” Even “The science is settled!”
  
• Well, sometimes it’s not settled. Sometimes it’s not even really science. But lots of people believe in it or follow it anyway. It’s a global problem.

"Most recently, we learned that a widely noticed 2012 study co-authored by Dan Ariely — whom the journal Science refers to as a “superstar honesty researcher” — was based on fake data.

Ariely is indeed a superstar, and his work is highly influential. 

He’s written multiple New York Times bestsellers. 

He founded a center at Duke University. 

...The only problem is, it’s not true. 

...Did Ariely commit fraud — he says no...but in a way the problem is bigger. 

Whether or not it was Ariely’s fault, a study that influenced policy turns out to have been baseless. 

And scientific peer review, often defended as the gold standard for research, didn’t spot the problem.

...Even more dangerous than the things we don’t know are the things we think we know that are wrong. Bad science produces things that sound important — maybe because they match our prejudices — but that are wrong. 

That’s not science at all, and we should neither believe in it nor follow it...Read all.
