It figures. The left has succeeded in ruining every damned thing that I grew up with. I loved NG as a kid. We were dirt poor and couldn’t afford a subscription so we would go over to a neighbors house who did.
If they lowered themselves to cheap partisan articles like this then I surely never noticed. All I saw was the world in beautiful color photographs. Strange and exotic places, nature displayed spectacularly. Oh yea - and every once in a while bare-breasted Africans ;-)
Another sigh and one more thing to walk away from.
*sigh*
Forty years ago “Scientific American” used to be a good read, and now it’s shot through with leftist propaganda as well.
Their bogus political philosophy would be bad enough if it just resulted in political folly (see, for example, Detroit), but no, liberals have got to diminish every bloody thing that matters, from education to entertainment to religion to even magazines that treat topics that should be totally apolitical.
I let my 20 year-old subscription to Scientific American lapse when that miserable collectivist Michael Rennie became the editor. Dozens of articles about the need for the end to private cars, the need for collectivist food production and distribution and global warming and I was done.
I got an NG subscription a few years back, as a student of photography. Every other article was about some enviro “tragedy.”
