Louis Adamic was a writer of socialist/labor propensities. He wrote a fairly famous book called “Dynamite…” on the history of blowing up capitalists.

When we don’t know anything about medieval history or early modern history or any history all beyond pop-history cliches it’s better that we compare those things we don’t like or do like to cartoons or their live human equivalents like GOfT: then we don’t look like sub-educated boobs but we get the point across anyway.

Rural, eh? Where did this Brody guy park his mule? He looks like he just got to town after scruffing around the hills looking for the lost gold mine. David Letterman has adopted the same persona: uptown Gabby Hayes.

I think the first brick should be thrown through Matthew Desmond’s window. He’s such a lovely boy. He deserves the honor.

If there was a libertarian in me he wouldn’t like affirmative action in principle. Leave that aside. I agree in general but…how rough and ready are race categories going to be? There are descendants of American slaves (and Indians) like my wife who are pretty white—-blue eyes and blond hair white. Such people may not identify themselves as white on the census but if you dangled money before their eyes…well. And what would that lead to if affirmative action is simply a payoff to keep certain old-timey American folk from making a stink and certain folk see a white man with a bagful of government goodies meant for them?
I get the point about the NFL but the NFL is not the government: government has overriding moral authority and must be seen to have moral authority in order to govern. It looses that authority when somebodies think that it is just e.g. a contrivance for billionaires to get what they want.

Fabulous. I want all three. I hope this is the beginning of a presidential series. You know, Jefferson holding a whip in one hand and a box of chocolates in the other; Lincoln with angel wings; Bill Clinton smoking a cigar.

An aside, re: the glass ceiling. Since leaving the farm I have been in many buildings. I have looked up and never seen a glass ceiling, and I have looked down and never seen a glass floor. Shouldn’t people ground their metaphors in reality? And as for those that don’t, can’t we assume that what they say and what they think is just compost of fairy dust and moon beams?

Remember, Augustus also had a daughter named Julia who was a notorious slut and party girl who was exiled by her father along with her pal Ovid (the poet). Being the classicist he is, Markus Zuckus must know this.

Taxonomies, eh? Ummmmm. Those stupid phony taxonomies. So, if you squint, and flush out dem social constructs someone bad made up and stuck in your brain, and if the light is just so… then donkeys and squid are, well, so closely related that no one will notice at the family reunion. Does the same thing hold for atoms and electrons and protons and neutrons and quarks and stuff like that?

National Lawyers Guild? Isn’t that an old Commie front organization? Those geezers are still around? I suppose they are like vampires, chewing on necks to raise up new generations.

No such thing on earth as a “self-hating Jew”. Simply a mud ball thrown at one Jew by another Jew.

Tell me. How is Jon Huntsman, Jr. going to help with Mormons? Jr. is not an active nor a believing Mormon, as he has hinted at publicly. Sr. is, but Jr. isn’t. Why does Trump need help with Mormons anyway? By the way, is “Anonymous” as stupid as he seems?

Love those mammies. If the SJW who owns them wants to rid himself of these so so terrible objet I will happily take them. It’s a win-win. One less micro-aggression for him, one set of marvelous Americana for me. Hey buddy, let the sin fall upon my head.
