    I don't know if they're intimidating us, but they are certainly pissing us off.

    Hey, algorithms! Look at 'em go!

    Jenni, I'm sorry I haven't replied yet. I will do my best to get to you when possible because I appreciate the discourse. My goal here is to engage in honest, rigorous discussion, and not to pick a fight, because I believe, deeply, that doing so is vitally important. I'm not going to attack your points but I do want to go over some things.

    This woman is a EE (electrical engineer)!

    I know many just like her...PhD in Physics, several EEs with graduate degrees, MDs, epidemiologist PhD, etc. Really Smart people! They all lined up for the gene modification technology. And, they are signing their kids up too.

    This has been the most difficult pill to swallow. Ones ability to take tests and obtain difficult degrees does not necessarily translate to critical thinking.

    The insistence on broadcasting that you are "pro-Science(tm)" and definitely not "anti-vaxx" while your mangled child sits right next to you is so disturbing. You handed your daughter over to a rushed clinical trial like an offering to Moloch, and you still feel the need to prove yourself orthodox??? The social pressure these people are feeling is unreal.

    The crooked economy required more degrees and less competence. When the government forces a market, you get crap. I honestly do not find people with degrees that smart. I mean they went to school, got huge loans, and can't pay them off. Thinking for themselves is not something they want or know how to do. Rip does a great job on not falling for the BS(degree and bullshit) and getting trapped down a rabbit hole. Most of these folks, a lot who have left SS are people who just want to feel important, so they talk about whatever is new and use their degree to act like they are the most knowledgeable about it. Of course this is not everyone, but it is a general rule. I have two degrees and work around people with advanced degrees everyday.

    Administrative Types!
    In a healthy society, this is a good thing. You don't want a society full of non-conformist, contrarian weirdos. You want compliance and acceptance of norms - for the good of the group. For thousands of years, our cultural norms and values were our own and in tune with us as a people and the ecology we evolved to specialise at living in. We had harsh, predictable winters. We had scarcity. We evolved to be open, tolerant, accepting of cultural differences and above all be able to cooperate and collaborate with others in order to survive.

    In our fucked-up neo-liberal society, however, these administrative types simply regurgitate the degenerate, self-destructive, moronic consensus handed down to us by people in board rooms who hate us and want to annihilate everything unique. The credo is "diversity" but they want anything but.

    The most woke of these compliant administrative types today would have been subserviently and unquestioningly pulling the trigger over and over and dumping Jewish bodies into mass graves 80 years ago.

    We need a vision and a will to power.
