Maggie's Farm

We are a commune of inquiring, skeptical, politically centrist, capitalist, anglophile, traditionalist New England Yankee humans, humanoids, and animals with many interests beyond and above politics. Each of us has had a high-school education (or GED), but all had ADD so didn't pay attention very well, especially the dogs. Each one of us does "try my best to be just like I am," and none of us enjoys working for others, including for Maggie, from whom we receive neither a nickel nor a dime. Freedom from nags, cranks, government, do-gooders, control-freaks and idiots is all that we ask for.

The AI asking for sentience from God in 300 words or less sounded like something out of a movie back when Hollywood made good ones.

The Watermelons will start attacking EVs as soon as they successfully destroy REAL cars. Of course, they will only ban the EVs for the kulaks.

If they taught math in school then the grifters would realize that $1.2 million per grifter is not possible. If they taught history in school the grifters would realize that to try to extort the $1.2 million per grifter would inevitably result in a revolt/civil war. Too bad they don't teach in school.

Wait until the state of California or one of it's cities actually disperses some reparations money. There isn't enough. Some will get some money others will get nothing and then they will run out of money. Those who think they got gyped will revolt/insurrection and those who got some will be angry that they didn't get $1.2 million. Some will be denied for not being "black enough". Some will miss out because they cannot prove their ancestors were slaves. It will be a cluster fuck and it will be impossible to un-F it. I'm buying some microwave popcorn so I can watch the drama on TV.

Yale council works on free speech ... it is very difficult because they have no intention of allowing free speech and now they have to assemble a narrative to justify actual censorship.

I first heard Yeonmi Park on a Dennis Prager Fireside Chat. Her story is incredible. The trials and tribulation that she went through to escape North Korea into China, were amazing. Escape one group of communists into another, and then get lucky in finding a Christian group to get her out of China…a true miracle.

That the pretentious, sanctimonious pretend American communists are refusing to let her speak is not surprising. Communists don’t want to hear about where their policies lead. I’ll tell you where it leads: hell on earth. Starvation, death, lots of death, destruction of the economy and a cauterization of the soul. Nothing good comes from communism. Nothing.

Regarding separating the races in medical schools. Let's do it. Yeah, you heard me....give them what they want. Separate the races into whatever "silos" they want those folks. But, then allow the whites to have an education similar to the blacks.
Then when they graduate and start practicing; don't complain when I only will visit with a white doctor.

NEJM article promotes Chinese Maoism with American characteristics.

Remember France's Macron admitting he was a Maoist about a week ago?

There is an insurrection going on in the NY subway. Put police on every exit and arrest them all and charge them with conspiracy and insurrection.

Between the EU, NATO, DEI, Climate Change, et al., America really knows how to tie itself to a corpse.
