Our nation is on the verge of collapse and elitist conservatives like Peggy Noonan find a discussion about Robespierre and pronouns something of interest.

Does anyone hold her opinion something of value?

Shooting the messenger?

“The first messenger, that gave notice of Lucullus’ coming was so far from pleasing Tigranes that, he had his head cut off for his pains, and no man dared to bring further information. Without any intelligence at all, Tigranes sat while war was already blazing around him, giving ear only to those who flattered him”.

The other day, there was a discussion about using unethical Nazi human experimentation data.
If such data would help you or a loved escape a difficult situation, would you want it used?

Stopped clocks, blind squirrels, dumbgrunts...
