This post consists of a section I omitted from yesterday’s essay because I did not want to bury the good under a pile of evil. If you, dear reader, are not fully convinced of the evil of the LGBTQ movement, or if someone you care about is not fully convinced, then this post is for […]
Anti-capitalists such as Herbert Marcuse have lamented that capitalism made the working class too content to revolt, and so they have sought to create a new coalition of malcontents including “ghetto populations” and sexual “queers.” What Critical Race Theory does to grow and perpetuate the first group, LGBT—and now Q too—ideology does for the second. […]
Do I think the 2022 election was stolen? Of course. We have mail-in voting, ballot harvesting, corrupt voter rolls, and no voter ID. All these things are designed to steal elections. Am I concerned about friends who have had the Covid vaccine? Of course. We have socialized medicine. Have any of our many other severe […]
Much has happened in the world since my last blog post on March 12. I have resisted blogging because of other projects. One project has been my study of artificial intelligence. I conjecture that my work in epistemology, as expressed in my book A Validation of Knowledge, will have applications to AI. At the least, […]
In a recent lecture entitled “During These Turbulent Times, What Is The One Thing the Child Needs To Know?,” Montessori teacher and author Charlotte Cushman brilliantly integrates epistemology and pedagogy. Before I could get around to posting the above recommendation, a second reason to write about Charlotte has arisen. The woke in the Montessori world […]
How do you defend against a nefarious attacker? You prepare for the threat years in advance, so that you possess overwhelming superiority. Western leaders have blown that opportunity—again. Our side won World War I, and un-won it less than a generation later. We won WWII, and un-won it less than a generation later. We un-won […]
Thankfully, capable intellectuals are fighting back against the neo-Marxist “woke” ideology, which encompasses critical race theory, intersectionality, LGBT ideology, queer theory, gender studies, feminism, postcolonialism, disability studies, fat studies, and social justice. For a partial list of counters to the woke coalition of malcontents, see my recent blog post entitled “Farewell, Cedar City.” With so […]
Regarding Question 1 from my previous post on cryptocurrencies, I want to address an argument made by some proponents of cryptos. An example of this argument was made by Robert Breedlove, a popular proponent of Bitcoin, on the Mikhaila Peterson Podcast #124 (beginning at the 59:15 mark), in response to the question, “What about the […]
Until recently, I had paid little attention to cryptocurrencies, such as Bitcoin, because they seemed to be just another form of fiat currency—backed by nothing of real value. They seemed to be a reductio ad absurdum—a spoof—of government-issued fiat currency: If a government can declare money into existence from nothing, then so can an anonymous […]
Expel the state-run university, save your freedom. The video embedded below is an expanded version of a talk I gave on August 5, 2021, bidding farewell to Cedar City, Utah. I left this rural town because critical race theory has thoroughly infected the local state-run university, Southern Utah University. To save the town, local citizens […]
