Look At It This Way (#LAITW)

I’m With Him…

by on Aug.03, 2021, under Uncategorized

Anymore, I’m reluctant to get into political discussions with friends and family. It just doesn’t seem worth it. I’ve yet to see anyone’s mind changed through such discussions. But that’s very micro. How can I do any good in a macro way, a bigger way?

Dennis Prager puts it this way, “There are three types of people in a battle: fighters, those who help the fighters, and the worthless.”

I’ve chosen to help the fighters; well, one fighter. I’ve chosen to help Dennis Prager. If you want to know what I think, then listen to or read Dennis Prager. We’re in agreement 99% of the time. And he’s got a huge amount of material out there. Knock your socks off!

PragerU.com – 5-Minute Videos and Fireside Chats on hundreds of topics. Also now with materials for kids. ALL FREE. Don’t miss PragerU Resources for Educators and Parents (PREP), $25/year.

Pragertopia.com – Subscription service to all his radio show podcasts (commercial-free), Happiness Hours, Male/Female Hours, Ultimate Issues Hours, all his Torah lectures, Courses, Talks, etc.

DennisPrager.com – his daily radio show. You can listen here, too (with commercials).

PragerStore.com – buy his books, lectures, courses, etc. I can think offhand of a few titles: Think a Second Time, Happiness is a Serious Problem, Still the Best Hope, and The Rational Bible.

So, if you want to know what I think about a given topic, start by looking up that topic on PragerU. You’ll find out exactly what I think put in a much better way than I ever could.

Will the Left/Dems be Held Accountable?

by on Feb.23, 2022, under Uncategorized

Tough call. Half the country is brainwashed about the Left. They sucker for the platitudes and are shielded from the truth by big media and big tech. Recent history suggests the Left rarely is held accountable. They get away with this ludicrous junk like critical race theory, 1619 project, men give birth, coddle the criminal, defund the police, and much more.

Sadly, it’s liberals that make this control by the Left possible – they overwhelmingly vote for Democrat candidates who in lock-step support a Left agenda from Biden on down to district attorneys and city councils. To save our country from the Left, liberals need to wake up to the fact that they have far more in common with the right/conservative folks than with the Left. By and large, liberals and conservatives share values (and disagree on how best to approach things). The Left shares none of those values.

As Reagan once said, “Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction.” Canadians are on the brink of becoming tyrannically controlled by their government. We’re not far behind. If we don’t turn this around, the great American experiment will be over and the entire world, not just us, will be the worse for it.

The fundamental problem

by on Jan.27, 2022, under Uncategorized

The fundamental and most important problem we face may well be our elites’ collusion with the Communist Chinese Party. Check out this book, Red-Handed: How American Elites Get Rich Helping China Win. Sadly, it’s a bipartisan problem.

Sweden Fared Well, Except…

by on Jan.21, 2022, under Uncategorized

With no lockdowns, no mandates, and simply providing information to the public and trusting them to do the right thing, Sweden fared quite well this last two years of COVID. Where they did quite poorly is in the treatment, or lack of treatment, of the elderly. Lots of facts and figures in this article from the DailyWire.

Biden admits to two years of COVID B.S.

by on Dec.28, 2021, under Uncategorized

After a year of campaigning that he’d “shutdown COVID” and another year of more and more lockdowns, vaccine mandates, and other machinations aimed at COVID (ostensibly), Biden admitted recently, “There is no federal solution. This gets solved at a state level.” Then he closed the year with his 32nd vacation of the year spending the remaining week of 2021 at his home (his home that’s not the White House).

Do No Harm

by on Dec.15, 2021, under Uncategorized

Remember the Hippocratic admonishment, “do no harm”? The medical establishment, both private and public, turned this absolutely upside down. Early on in this pandemic, instead of focusing on safe therapeutics (hydroxychloroquine [HCQ], etc.), our medical and governmental establishments pushed masks (off and on), lockdowns, and vaccines. All the while there were therapeutics just waiting in the wings, taken by millions over decades without doing harm; HCQ, for example, as a prophylactic for malaria. That’s part of why Africa has done so well with regard to COVID (except one country, S. Africa); there were already so many people taking HCQ preventatively.

Instead, these powerful (and corrupt) organizations jumped on answers with downsides any rational person could have predicted. Masks dehumanize. Isolation drives people batty. Children suffer immeasurably from no school and no friends. The economy was trashed. All unnecessary. The curve could have been flattened by prophylactic use of therapeutics and for treatment (best when early on).

And to add insult to injury, Big Pharma has made billions on the vaccines. You may think you got the shots for free. But no, the government put billions of taxpayer dollars into their development and even excused Big Pharma from any negative repercussions. Speaking of… Did you know that Pfizer’s own vaccine study showed that out of 22,000 “guinea pig” humans, 14 died of adverse reactions to the shot while 1 COVID death was prevented. That’s NOT “do no harm.”

All along, the cures that have been foisted upon us were far worse than the disease.

A Thought Experiment

by on Nov.12, 2021, under Consequences, Do the Math, Logic / Fallacies

Let’s try a little thought experiment. Einstein used thought experiments to uncover many of the discoveries he made.

It’s about face-coverings for COVID. Picture yourself wearing a typical face mask. You know it doesn’t make a really good seal between you and the open air because if it did you’d asphyxiate. So how good a seal does it make?

For starters, just observe a lot of face masks in action. Are the nose AND mouth covered? Are there gaps between the circumference of the mask and the wearer’s skin? Can you picture air getting out of any of those gaps?

OK, here’s the thought experiment. Imagine yourself in a large ballroom all by yourself in a corner, sitting on a chair, wearing a mask, and smoking a cigarette. I know, it would be terribly hard to smoke a cigarette without disrupting the mask-wearing, but that’s where your brain comes in – imagine that you could smoke a cigarette without constantly taking the mask on and off.

Do you think you would see smoke coming out either through or around the mask? Remember your observations about how masks are generally worn.

Now, imagine there’s another person in this large ballroom in the opposite corner from you. How long do you think it would be before that person smelled smoke? In other words, how long would it take for your smoke particles to get up that other person’s nostrils from many yards away?

Now realize that a coronavirus is smaller than a smoke particle on average.

Does thinking that through change your opinion on the efficacy of masks?

Next time we’ll ask… For whatever help masks provide, what is the price? How, if in any way, does wearing a mask do harm?
