The Humble Libertarian original

I. Aziz Ansari didn't rape or sexually assault "Grace." But he was definitely being rapey . The critics in the backlash against Babe.net and #MeToo over this have failed to see that. Which is seriously unsettling. And many of them are spreading vile stereotypes about men that I take serious issue with as a man. II. To be fair to Aziz, maybe she's exaggerating or not telling the truth, and we don't know for sure. She could just be a really evil bitch. It's definitely possible. But taking Grace's account at face value, as many columnists have in criticizing her and #MeToo... And assuming it is an accurate representation of what happened that night... He treated her extremely badly. And deserves to be pilloried for it. A popular NYTs opinion column by some smart ass named Bari Weiss was entitled: " Aziz Ansari Is Guilty.

Saw this on Davi Barker 's Facebook page last night: "We've heard a lot about how compulsory schooling harms the natural enthusiasm to learn, as well as the unspoken lessons of the Prussian system.

Explosive emotions, probably experienced for th...

If you are anti-war, this book delves into the root causes of war in a way that no other has, and reveals so many interesting facts about the lead up to specific wars it will make your head spin. Demause makes a compelling case that war is not primarily an economic nor political phenomenon, but a psychological one. Demause's investigation into the history of war concludes that each war is an episode of mass hysteria centered on self-destruction and human sacrifice, and that the psychological motivations for war can only make sense to a society of people who were abused as children. If this is true, the one...
