Speaking of the transistor, there is now a drive to prevent a park being named after its lead inventor, William Shockley, because of his views on race. Pretty soon the leftists will try to remove or rewrite the first few centuries of the U.S.’s history.

There is a segment of the late-nite conspiracy radio crowd that believes the bipolar junction transistor was the result of reverse engineering extraterrestrial technology from the supposed Roswell UFO crash of 1947. If one examines the professional qualifications of Bill Shockley as a physicist, it becomes clear that he, an expert in quantum and statistical physics was well qualified to invent, construct, and fully describe the operation of just such a device. It becomes even more ludicrous in light of the 1920’s Lilienfeld patents described above.

I doubt it. They will be actively confronted with the demand to know how those African slaves were acquired, i.e. who sold those slaves in the first place? It wasn't white devils. They just bartered for them.
