    I’m from Australia and it’s now horrifically woke. Job interviews have changed now for government and corporate roles. I’m not joking 90% of the questions were basically centred around determining if you were woke or not. Industrial racism, diversity and inclusivity etc.

    ...and so, the 1st target had to be " the home". Woman were told, on every T.V. show, to be a " Keeper of the Children", a.k.a. the next generation, was not " " "Noble Work". Rather, turn the child over to a state licenced day care, and find work that can be taxed to grow the Government. ! 😮

    "A farmer in the morning, a literary critic in the evening, a scientist in the afternoon..." You mean, Ben Franklin? And pretty much every other founding father throughout the entire 18th and early 19th centuries? Why is that such a crazy idea?

    • @lieshtmeiser5542
      @lieshtmeiser5542 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Maybe the fact that the country ended up as 'participatory fascism' can be traced back to these 'jack of all trades, master of none' types that supposedly were the founding fathers, but delivered this tyranny onto us.
      Sacreligous? Maybe, but people need to own their ideologies, and BLM, and regressivism, etc are just as much Franklin and Jefferson's fault as anyone else in america.

      It was of marginal utility when Franklin did it.
      It was utterly doubtfull when Marx wrote it.
      It's utterly impossible now. The amount of knowledge needed to succesfully operate as each one of those is staggering.
      Except the critic. That's easy. Just be disagreeable enough.

    DiLorenzo, quoting von Mises from a book written in 1922: "...socialism is a spoiler of what thousands of years of civilization has created..." von Mises wrote this in the wake of a capitalist war that killed some 20 million people, wounded another 20 million or so, and destroyed hundreds of billions of dollars worth of property, and incidentally, led to another capitalist war less than twenty years later where the death and destruction were far, far, worse. Which tells you everything you need to know about von Mises. We can't blame him for not foreseeing WW2, but his inability to acknowledge the destruction of WW1 is incredible. Now DiLorenzo is touting von Mises as being "prescient"! Is that supposed to be a joke?
