Civilization is not a milestone that we already passed, but a net positive process for humanity and the world. We report on its ups and downs through time.
Some people may wonder why, if the main theme of this account is human civilization, I write so much about the US and, specifically, about US politics.
For all its faults, the US has been and will continue to be the stardard bearer of the free and civilized world.

And then what? You will have one in German, Italian, Mandarin, Arabic? Or are Hispanics the only group that need a patronizing treatment?

How many of us have learned from Thomas Sowell?
And learned so much.
And still so much to learn from him.
There are very few such teachers in life. We are very fortunate.

Many of your colleagues in Gaza are part of Hamas. And they keep most of the donations for themselves. The pictures you are sending do not reflect the reality on the ground. You are a Hamas apologist and should resign.

Is this satire?
Do you see that thin reddish bar on top? That's renewables. Only a UN bureaucrat could see that as unstoppable.
Do you see the light blue, dark blue and green bars? That's fossil fuels. They will be round, fortunately, for a long, long time.

What a great idea. Let's start with the Muslim world, since it is the geography further behind in women development. What do you propose we do there?

Obviously. But in their stubbornness they refused to see the political reality: Trump was the strongest candidate, DeSantis was the only possible contender and they chose Haley.
Result: DeSantis lost, Haley will lose and Trump will probably lose as well in the general.
Well
@KevinRobertsTX
Very good comment
@KevinRobertsTX
. The only thing that could be question is your faith in Trump. Is DeSantis wins, all those issues will be resolved. If Trump wins, who knows?
@ChoooCole
First, Democrats throw children under the trans bus (or more accurately, they throw them on the chopping block).
Then, if some children somehow escape (with or without mental and physical scars), they want to control how they "continue" on to the next phase.

You never know for sure how someone will lead until they are in the leaders seat.
We now know you are a weak and inefficient leader.
Can’t wait for you to leave.
@SpeakerJohnson
A decline of which you have been, sadly and disappointingly, part of.
Weak representatives should never be Speakers of the House.
The House is voiceless.
Last night was a mandate for school choice in Texas.
SIX anti-school choice incumbents were ousted.
FOUR more were forced to runoffs
77% of the incumbents we challenged lost or were forced to runoffs.
The largest political shift towards school choice in Texas history.

Socialistic speak from Europe:
"a just transition for our citizens." means Europeans will get screwed.
"stability and predictability for our economy" means we want a socialistic economy. Why? Because a free and growing economy is not stable and predictable. It sometimes grows

They are close to saying it but do not have the courage or clarity to do so.
The problem:
1. Political rightousness has prevented people, especially politicians, from speaking the truth.
2. Islam is not compatible, as it is practiced today by the vast majority of Muslims,
In this world, individuals are either for the civilized world or for barbarism and brutality.

Europe urgently needs to close its door to Muslim immigrants or risk losing everything.
As we have said many times before: Islam is incompatible with the Free World.
It is not about "discrimination".
It is importing people that hate your culture (but not your money) and

Racism.
It is not always used in a negative sense. Here, the Democratic representative refers to Mr. Blanks as brother.
Why? He refers to him as brother simply because they both have dark skin.

The US, just like all civilized countries, has defective laws and regulations.
One of those is immigration law.

Totally backwards.
The L.A. Times decimated real journalism a while back. If there is no journalism, are the people employed really journalists? Or just propagandists?
For real journalism, the best thing that can happen to the L.A. Times is to finally shut down.
