I’m well aware, Mr. B. :(
All Freepers who've been around since Clinton's Presidency watched CAIR sprout from the brains of Muslim Brotherhood. CAIR began slowly using freedom of speech, never missing an opportunity to accuse Israel of being productive, self-interested, hard working, freedom loving, and fair to Arabs living in Israel.
See how that works? Accuse them of building a paradise in the desert then twist the narrative to one of Israel depriving Palestinians who live under a terrorist org in Gaza of depriving innocent Palestinians of freedom!
And the propagandists like the Communists in Czarist Russia never sleep, like the teachers of your children never let them come up for air. All while Americans didn't really want to put the pieces together. It Can't Happen Here was written 100 years ago? Atlas Shrugged sounded the warning 70 years ago. Orwell painted the bleak future 50 years ago?
We were warned while America's philosophy departments, the idea mills of any society, blacklisted the greatest professor of philosophy in America (an immigrant no less) who taught the rise of Western ideas from Ancient Greece, the Dark Ages, Aquinas, the glorious Renaissance which climaxed in the Age of Reason, Locke and the greatest intellectual product of the Western world: the American Constitution freeing Americans to keep the product of their labor, their creativity and zest for living resulting in the PROOF of Laissez-Faire Capitalism's ideas: the Industrial Revolution!
"Why should we hire you when we can hire one of our own kind?" he was told at one interview.
I had a front row seat from the 70's to today as our greatest living philosopher was silenced by the philosophy departments in America starting in 1980.
Ideas run the world and set in motion the events of history.
Mark Levin offered an excellent example last night, October 22, 2023 on Fox News channel, as he told the story of barbarians infiltrating the enemy camp garbed in business suits and ties, speaking the tongue of the Enlightenment and just like Kipling's Gods of the Copybook Heading, "with terror and slaughter return".
It is personal to me and it is not funny.
that’s a feature, not a problem.
Maybe you should reread my post if you are so slow.
