Biden’s older than a Boomer though, he’s Silent Generation. (Trump is on the older end, but indeed a Boomer.) I’m curious if you’ll ever have a Gen X president some day, but it’s not really generation that matters so much as having someone of reasonable intelligence who has empathy and integrity instead of yet another power-networking fundraising wizard.
I’ve been meaning to look into the history of how the secular left was crushed in much of the Middle East. Thanks for the reminder.
Yes, because a stern talking to will make all the difference, when they’re already attacking people there either way.
Never even mind how at first I somehow thought the headline stopped before “until,” and continued at Biden. 🙄
Or that (if I’m not mixing events in my head), only 4 of the 22 killed in that attack were even adults.
It doesn’t. Graeber was an anthropologist and Wengrow is an archaeologist. It’s a review of existing evidence from past civilizations (the diversity of which most people are hugely ignorant about), making the case the most common representations of “civilization” and “progress” are severely limited, probably to a detrimental extent since we often can only base our conceptions of what is possible on what we know.
That’s highly subjective, but the fascinating book The Dawn of Everything argues otherwise. There are even parts about the anthropological evidence some peoples just up and changed systems every so often (yes, non-violently). Our problem as people in the modern era is many can’t imagine anything else, not that no one ever did.
India and Israel are just farther along on the same path we’re on in multiple countries in the West. Fascism feeds off the rising inequality and exploitation of Capitalist excesses. It could easily have barrelled ahead further here first if dominant groups here were any less accepting of cultural differences (we could still do better, but we’re at least at the bare minimum of civility) AND if we weren’t as religiously unaffiliated and/or atheistic*.
(*This is not a knock at spirituality. I only say this because another calling card of fascism is for the dominant local culture’s religion to be contorted into its absolute worst, most corrupt possible form so it may be weaponized in whipping up monstrous sentiments towards scapegoated outcast groups.)
With all the Jeff Taylor farmers’ revolt garbage that get pushed at my father on Youtube (even though the content he actually chooses has never been like that), I was expecting this to happen for a while now. We’re not in Europe ourselves, but the media onslaught by certain interests has clearly done its job.
Wait, is she thinking that’s how you welcome a witch or is that how she believes witches welcome people? I couldn’t find an attached article and this is bugging me now…
Poor Eeyore in his burro, no doubt muling and complaining.
I feel like that would make me some edgy child, messing around with legos or playdough.
I’ve found it can also be cheaper to place the order by phone than by an online ordering (middleman) service.
Can’t get past the paywall but I hope India will see a better future with a leader who cares for all its people.
