The Death Penalty

This month, Connecticut abolished the death penalty.  Let's take this moment to look at one of the crimes committed by two people whose lives have been saved by this decision.  This crime was an open-and-shut case with no doubt of guilt.

One day, two men decided to burglarize a house.  They severely beat up the husband (so that he wasn't even recognizable) and tied him up.  They also tied up his two daughters.  One of the men forced the wife go to the bank and withdraw $15,000 from her line of credit...and he also bought two cans of gasoline.  Upon returning home, the two men raped the wife and her 11-year-old daughter.  As they were raping the girls upstairs, the husband downstairs escaped to seek help from a neighbor.  The men strangled the raped wife to death, and with gasoline they had gotten earlier, doused the two still-living daughters and the house with gasoline and set the house on fire, incinerating the family (except for the escaped husband).

 Again, as I said, the case is open-and-shut, with testimony from the husband, the wife's words to a teller at the bank which called 911, and slow-ass police who were waiting to do anything while the rapes and murders were occurring, only apprehending the criminals one block away from the burning house as they fled.  They were on death row.

Congratulations to those who fought for the overturning of the death penalty in Connecticut.  You really triumphed this time!  And if I have learned anything in my life, it is that evil very often triumphs over good!  Because of you, these men can live rent-free, and probably work-free, with the inconvenience of not being able to travel freely.  Horrible, I know!  And they can eat their daily chicken breast sandwiches for the next 35 years, and you can live smugly in your own made-up world where 20,000+ innocent chickens killed for these men's meals over that time period are more deserving of death than these two murdering rapists.

Sokal-style hoaxes work for religious postmodernists, but (post) modernism is the real hoax Modernism in art and architecture, and postmodernism in philosophy are, like religion, insults to human intelligence.  Unfortunately, many people fall for their hollow propaganda. The "Sokal Affair" was a hoax whereby a man called Alan Sokal submitted a postmodern-sounding article to a postmodern journal.  It turns out that the English you hear isn't just unintelligible to you, but it's unintelligible to the people at the journal as well.  But if it's unintelligible, it must be profound, right?  The journal quickly accepted it, not knowing that it was all fake B.S.  They then got embarrassed when they were told that it was pompous-sounding drivel. Religion has done the same thing.  When people can't understand something, they generally think it's much more profound than if they can understand it.  If a priest speaks Latin, wears some weird costume, and sp...

The Islamic State has beheaded at least 21 Christians in Libya.

Whenever a Muslim brings up the Crusades, I have to laugh to myself.  Christians have done horrible things, including in later crusades against Constantinople and the Cathars in particular.  However, get this.  The Islamic State militants said, "Safety for you crusaders is something you can only wish for" right before butchering Egyptian Christians. It seems that many Muslims haven't taken a single history class.  If they had, they would have known that Christians existed in Egypt for 400 years before Islam.  (Heck, they were even around to murder Hypatia, perhaps the last major ancient female philosopher.)  It was the Muslims who were the "Crusaders"...yet almost nobody will admit to this.  Muslims instigated a merciless war against Christian Egyptians until they were overcome and under Islamic domination.  They did this to people across the world, from Spain to India...massacring any who resisted.  They tried to destroy the Byzaintine Em...

2020 Was (Will Be) An Inside Job

My Election Prediction: Trump will lose. I think that the collusion of corporate media with big tech is too powerful for the minds of regular people to resist. The propaganda was non-stop, and enough people have fallen for it. I think that without the censorship, and with a modicum of objectivity in the media, Trump would win. Sure, people have their own reasons for supporting both Trump and Biden (= not Trump). Some of those reasons on both sides are sound. But a decent percentage of people are mindless consumers of propaganda, and these people will ultimately decide the election. 2016 shocked the deep state and their corporate overlords, but since their stunning loss, they made sure to do everything in their power so as not to suffer a similar defeat this time. They covered all of their bases, along with the mouths of those whose speech they feared. Meanwhile, Americans as a group no longer really care about the freedom of speech, and many are lukewarm on the idea of America ...
