In a civilized society it is indeed not so much the greater knowledge that the individual can acquire, as the greater benefit he receives from the knowledge posssessed by others, which is the cause of his ability to pursue an infinitely wider range of ends than merely the satisfaction of his most pressing physical needs. Indeed, a ‘civilized’ individual may be very ignorant, more ignorant than many a savage, and yet greatly benefit from the civilization in which he lives.
USA Democrats have many dead voters who vote early and often.
I have to admit to enjoying the confidence and energy of Trump-fever. And a lot of it seems truly from the grass roots.
Neither Obama nor the Hilderbeest had that. They had large, choreographed, and expensive affairs with elaborate settings and props. Remember that speech of Obama’s in front of Dorian columns erected on the stage?
I can also see how much Trump-fever alarms progressives as it heralds a return to the America that they have laboured to bury – when it all seemed so close its heart started beating again, its faced flushed with colour, and has risen again to its feet.
And the old tricks may not work again. The progressives, knowing that they did not have popular appeal, insinuated themselves into organisations and institutions that were meant to be express the people’s will and locked them out and to express their own. The press stopped informing the people and started preaching, hiding some stories and fabricating others. The colleges that were meant to cultivate excellence swung to a muddled orthodoxy demanding conformity and submission. Government departments set up protect people’s rights turned to tyrannical offices to protect state interests from them.
It might not work a second time.
If only Intersectional Politics referred solely to the art of determining who goes first through an unsigned and unmarked crossroads…
Doric columns.
The columns were not made of Dorians.
Although if they were were it would suggest that ‘pylons’ were made from people from Pylos.
Hmmm…
Helping them through Covid-19 … unless they’re dead.
@ Motherlode-
I’m told Corinthians make good doors… 🤪
He certainly helped a lot of grannies through Covid-19.
Maybe they’ll all gratefully vote for the Democrats on Nov 3 now that they’re dead.
Rahm Emanuel had a piece in the Oz yesterday claiming that Reagan Republicans will switch over in droves to vote Dem in November. My reply was rejected, of course.
Rahm Emanuel!!!! I knew The Oz was interested in a diversity of opinion but I never thought they would go there! Well done for turning over the political rock and exposing the scuttling forms underneath to the antiseptic sunlight of the educated public gaze.
I don’t think the smart, educated, sophisticated, entrepreneurial Reagan Republicans will be giving the Dems a nanosecond’s consideration. Why would the party of Lincoln and Reagan switch to the party of segregation, slavery, Jim Crow, and the white-robed paramilitary violence in the old days or, in the new days, the party of segregation (identity politics), slavery (trapping generations of African-Americans in Dem hellhole inner city fiefdoms with decades of hollow, cynical promises of “better times ahead), Jim Crow (demeaning, racialist, race-specific legislation such as patronising affirmative action programmes which debases genuine talent) and black-robed Antifa paramilitary violence.
I could be wrong (this will be the most unusual presidential runoff in history) but I think traditional GOP voters will vote for the policies, not the man.
No doubtCumos victims who died will vote decromat alongside the Civil War veterans of both sides . The US decromat party is a most remarkable group ,they can raise the dead fron 170 odd years ago to vote on polling day in very large numbers . Our lefty criminal party are rank amateurs in this field although they can produce boxes of votes from thim air with regularity , wonder if both parties are registered with the Magic Circle Club ?
From Day 1: Liveblogging the 2020 Democratic National Convention
Eveyone’s tweeting about Bernie’s logs.
Those logs. How big is Bernie’s living room fireplace? Toasty!
One man owns as much wood as 85% of the rest of this country – Bernie, do the right thing and redistribute those logs to ALL Americans.
bernie showing he’s a prepper with all of those logs. classic non-gray man mistake
Y’all think Bernie might be hoarding firewood for something big? Should we all get our wood together? I’m gonna get my logs.
SAVE SOME LOGS FOR THE REST OF US BERNIE
So…are Bernie’s logs real or are they one of those peel n stick wallpapers that looks like logs, or bricks or whatever?
A divided nation wants to know!
Much sputtering passion from Boinie tonight. But those looooogs… 😍
Cannot want for @ratemyskyperoom to weigh in on Bernie’s truly impressive pile of logs.
Bernie’s logs stole the show tonight. They even upstaged stage and screen star Eva Longoria.
Her agent is so gonna hear about this…
Orange President dude very , very ,very , bad …… Come on man that’ll work !
What is going on, did Trump somehow pay them not to contend the election this cycle? It’s like they are all working for the Republican party now, can’t be that bad by chance they are not even trying.

This past week Minnesota became the second state to reject regulations that effectively ban the controversial drug hydroxychloroquine for use by COVID-19 patients.
The decision, which comes two weeks after the Ohio Board of Pharmacy reversed an effective ban of its own, was rightfully praised by local health care advocates. “We are pleased that Governor [Tim] Walz lifted his March 27 Executive Order 20-23 restrictions on chloroquine and hydroxychloroquine,” said Twila Brase, president of Citizens’ Council for Health Freedom.
The reversal by Walz, a first-term Democrat, clears the way for doctors to prescribe hydroxychloroquine, a drug commonly used to treat malaria and other conditions but one the FDA has declined to recommend for COVID-19 treatment.
The decision is the latest development in the weird saga of arguably the most divisive drug in modern history. The acrimony began in March after President Trump tweeted that hydroxychloroquine had the potential to be “one of the biggest game changers in the history of medicine” as a treatment for the coronavirus.
The tweet and similar statements provoked an avalanche of media criticism, with many claiming that the president was going to get people killed. Critics pointed out that medical evidence suggests the medication is linked to a fatal arrhythmia and some trials show no benefits in coronavirus treatments.
Though his critics are likely loath to admit it, there’s reason to believe the president may have been on to something. In recent weeks a chorus of voices in the medical community has emerged to challenge the view that hydroxychloroquine is ineffective as a COVID treatment. Dr. Harvey A. Risch, a professor of epidemiology at the Yale School of Public Health, said a full analysis of the literature suggests hydroxychloroquine may be the key to defeating the coronavirus.
“Physicians who have been using these medications in the face of widespread skepticism have been truly heroic,” Risch wrote in Newsweek, adding that a full review of the COVID literature on the drug shows “clear-cut and significant benefits.”
Prescribing hydroxychloroquine in the early stages of the virus is key, Risch said, and others agree. Steven Hatfill, a veteran virologist and adjunct assistant professor at the George Washington University Medical Center, says the literature supporting hydroxychloroquine is overwhelming.
