Where are We Going, and Why are We in This Basket?

Sunday, January 24, 2021 22:07

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.

Here’s hoping this post makes it past the Google censors.

“Much of the social history of the Western world over the past three decades has involved replacing what worked with what sounded good. In area after area – crime, education, housing, race relations – the situation has gotten worse after the bright new theories were put into operation. The amazing thing is that this history of failure and disaster has neither discouraged the social engineers nor discredited them.” ~Thomas Sowell, Is Reality Optional?, 1993

Add nearly three more decades to that record.

(C)onservatism is not so much based on ideas, but on simply observing what works, and then generalizing from there. – Dr. Robert Godwin

After the preceding sixty years, I am now an almost perfect “enemy of the Left.” I’m an old(er) white cisgendered heterosexual male who drives a pickup truck and owns guns. The only checkbox I don’t tick is that I’m not a Christian, but then I am not an “anti-theist” either. Because I’m in favor of maximum individual liberty and minimum government power – what used to be called a “liberal” – I am now labeled a member of the “Alt-Right,” which (deliberately) carries with it ominous implications of “White Supremacy.” And I’m a Donald Trump voter, so I am Evil Incarnate.

If not for my heresy of voting for Trump, I might be redeemed – but I would never be trusted.

I started blogging in May of 2003 after spending time in the trenches of Usenet, on bulletin boards, and as a contributor to a failed experiment known as Themestream. Why? Because I was pissed. I forgot to mention that in my CV. I’m a pissed off old(er) white cisgendered heterosexual male.

If you’ve read this blog for any length of time, you know that this pissed-off white cisgendered heterosexual male is also a Debbie Downer. I’m a pessimist by nature. I’ve said that being a pessimist is generally a pretty good way to go through life – you’re seldom disappointed and occasionally pleasantly surprised. I’ve had very few pleasant surprises recently.

This post is no different. You’ve been warned. Logorrhea to follow.
