A dear old friend sent me a documentary from the mid-20th Century about the Rothschild family, exposing how, its creator claims, they covertly control everything of any importance going on in the world.
I think most of us baby boomers have run across this idea, and, to be honest, there was a point in my life at which I was open to this idea, but I think that window has closed.
What killed it for me was the presence of the centibillionaires, i.e., individuals whose net worth of $100 billion or more.
I’m not saying that the Rothschilds aren’t filthy rich, but think about this for a moment. Elon Musk just got finished dismantling a solid chunk of the federal government of the most powerful nation on Earth. Is it credible that he was either hired by the Rothschilds, or somehow got their permission before he did that?
Sorry. Doesn’t fly for me.
LOL!!Here’s Something Career Liar Dennis Prager. Has He No Shame? No Honor?
Tyson’s
point here opens up a number of good questions. How much liberty should teachers have in choosing the materials they present to their students? Is it OK for teachers to cite factual texts about the history of slavery in the U.S., or should states like Florida be at liberty to ban discussion of “critical race theory?”
Perhaps the larger point, and it’s one that Western Civilization should celebrate, is that at least we had our Age of Reason, aka, the Enlightenment, where we realized that we needed a separation between church and state. Consider the theocracies of the Middle East, for example, where teachers would be immediately removed for encouraging critical thinking when it comes to Islam.
The two factors driving the end of the Trump presidency are a) the public’s perception of the first family’s blatant corruption, and b) Trump’s 0bvious loss of his cognitive faculties.
IMO, these are just two sides of the same coin; criminal insanity seems to be the common thread throughout Trump’s entire adult life. The only thing different here is the recent amping up of the intensity, to a point where this is apparent to even the dimmest bulb in our electorate.
