Lars Jonung et al. "Swedens relative growth over 170 years. A drama in three acts": "The role of economic freedom for growth". Swedens Democratic Socialist experiment in 1970-80s cut growth 1/3. Had Sweden not done it, it'd be richer than Switzerland. nationalekonomi.se/wp-conten…
De som har en universell människosyn, många kristna och alla Progressiva, har mycket svårt för de nya rönen om evolutionär biologi och evolutionär psykologi. De fåt rysningar när de inser att det finns stora skillnader mellan grupper. @PatrickKampmann
"Ancient DNA has made late 20th century revisionist [Noble Savage Tabula Rasa paradigm] historiography untenable, but other disciplines are still pushing related nonsense. All of it must be defunded and rebuilt."
Lay people don't appreciate how much of post-1960s scholarship has been invalidated by ancient DNA, nor the extent to which it's vindicated earlier scholars, nor how generations have been mal-educated.
The post-60s errors are all in a single direction too: they interpret evidence through a model of human nature that predicts behaviors that run contrary to everyday intuition and observation. For example, for decades, dogma was that violence was rare until the bronze age. Of course, violence was, in fact, ubiquitous. Pots changed because people changed, not because (as scholars asserted with straight faces somehow) ideas diffused through word of mouth.
You can draw your own conclusions about why the academy pushed this model so hard, but it happened at exactly the same time the academy was pushing tons of other ideas inconsistent with an intuitive understanding of human nature.

Swedish and Norweigian Vikings like redheads so much that there are tons them in Scandinavia. The redhead gene in Scandinavia is mainly Irish. I use to have red streaks in my beard. My kids mother is half Norwegian, red gold hair. Looked like Lagertha.

Susie Wiles is the reason DOGE ended prematurely.
Hey guys by the way. Who do you think was responsible for pushing Elon Musk out and for suffocating DOGE? Susie Wiles. In her interview with Vanity Fair, she said:
"The president doesn’t know and never will. He doesn’t know the details of these smallish agencies."
Susie Wiles has been blocking us the entire time. She is the reason DOGE and Elon were shut down when they were trying to cut off the Leftist patronage networks.
Susie Wiles must go.

The real way MAGA works. Lobbying firms pay “influencers” to push talking points. Susie would have staffers print out tweets going viral (via bots) by “his biggest supporters” to show Trump that an issue mattered to the base. This is why you got fucked and they got richer.

Jonah Goldberg is mocking Charlie Kirk's death. Scott Galloway is inciting murder against Elon Musk. Everyone can screw right off with their holier than thou act and fake morality. I will never disavow anyone until those ghouls have been banned from CNN.

Romney attacked me during Covid as an “authoritarian” who was “more dangerous than Trump.”
This was during the time when I used my power to protect people from the largest incursion against liberty in our lifetime — restrictions and mandates that Romney supported.
Blocking local governments from imposing covid mandates/restrictions is not being an “authoritarian”; it is liberating people from government overreach by city and county officials. Florida is better for our efforts, and the country would not have been liberated had we not led.
Claiming to be “severely conservative” and then smearing the one guy who delivered the conservative wish list across the spectrum shows him to be a phony.
Better than Obama but he would have given us managed decline that accepted the assumptions of the left and bowed to criticisms of the legacy media.

The Home Office welcomes endless dangerous third world scumbags, yet bans Eva Vlaardingerbroek from entering our country to attend a Restore Britain event.

There's just no serious doubt that the "rape" prosecution of Russell Brand, for which he has now been convicted and jailed, was first precipitated by his very public turn toward vaguely right-wing (and admittedly often wacky) political and religious commentary.
In 2022, the Times (UK) published a big feature lambasting him for his purported transformation into some sort of dodgy right-wing "conspiracy guru."
Then in 2023 comes the big expose about Brand's allegedly sordid history of "sexual assault" and "abuse." The Times claimed they first started hearing of such allegations in 2019, but apparently had little urgency to follow up for several years.
Then all of the sudden, in "autumn 2022, Channel 4’s Dispatches formally began collaborating with The Sunday Times to investigate Brand."
Another notable event that occurred in "autumn 2022": Russell Brand was announced as a featured broadcaster on the right-wing (ish) video platform Rumble, alongside the likes of Donald Trump Jr. and Dan Bongino.
Soon enough, boom — here comes the newly frenzied "investigative" activity by the joint Times/Channel 4 task force — eventually yielding the big splashy 2023 "documentary" (more like "slopumentary”) which today they are bragging "led to" Brand's conviction in London for various sexual assault and rape offenses.
(He was also acquitted on multiple counts, in a very curious mixed verdict. NONE of the allegations aired in that 2023 propagandocumentary were ultimately charged at trial.)
Really makes U think...

@TomiLahren: “Gen Z rebrands laziness as 'stay-at-home sons'—just like they did with 'quiet quitting.' But let’s be honest: the real crisis is the feminization of men. Young women want families. Too many young men want DoorDash and mama’s basement.”
