The Heretic at Heritage

An interesting article (thanks for including the URL) but it (and your comment) suffer from a similar flaw - what makes you think those "interventions" actually had their intended effect? The school boards may have thought they were ending school segregation by busing white children to the slums, but all they really did was trigger the white flight to the suburbs, and further solidify segregation. "Head Start" was just another government program that essentially tried to help improve the children's mental abilities by replacing [ignorant] parents w/state workers (continuing the destruction of the black family unit), but actually resulted in DECREASING the children's intelligence. This said, I DO wonder about cultural influences - for example, ethnically, the pre-WW2 Germans were not all that different from other Europeans, but during the war, their military technology (jet aircraft, rockets, atomic weapons) became terrifyingly more advanced than anyone else's. If it weren't for the constant interferences of [the lunatic] Adolph Hitler, the German military would have easily defeated the British and Russians before the US even entered the war.
It means that mapfin has started their own personal boycott of anyone who supports the NYT's biased reporting by purchasing it's advertising. At last report, WaPo's revenue is down by 85%, Perhaps they hope the same thing will happen w/another "Progressive" publication.

The Elite Media Hates You

I'm curious - why do people persist in labelling these "Legacy" media mavens as "Elite"? They've thoroughly demonstrated that they are incapable of producing an unbiased accounting of events, their command of the English language is flawed, and all of their education has been at the various centres of Marxist Philosophy (such as Columbia U, Harvard, et. al.). I thought to be "Elite" meant you were very good at what you did.
Incurs? No - DEMONSTRATES, is better choice of words. I always liked what a famed theoretical physicist once said: Science helps us understand how God's creations work. In any case, the Bible DOESN'T say the Earth rotates around the Sun, nor does it claim that it is only 5,800 years old (that is just an incorrect interpretation some people have made from the generational info {showing they overlooked 2Pe 3:8}). Why you make the unsupported (and untrue) statement that "religion is contra to science" escapes me - especially in the bizarre world of sub-atomic physics, the deeper the scientists get, the more they report seeing a divine hand in all of this. (in my own case, it was delving into n-dimensional and quantum physics)
Yes, this is another example of the "Progs" revisionist history - "Nazi" is short for National Sozialistische Deutsche Arbeiter Partei (National SOCIALIST German Workers' party in English). You can't get much farther "Left" than Hitler and his Fascist thugs.
HBB, the US already has a loong history of doing that! Immediately after the Americans won their independence, the "Loyalists" were all put on boats to Canada and the UK, and their land awarded to the rebel leaders - that's how my family got one of its farms. My ancestor was an officer in the Continental Army and a member of the House of Burgesses, not a farmer. Ditto for Texas - after it joined the US, all of the Loyal Mexicanos were expelled. The Amerinds of the Iroquoi's five nations no longer live in their tribal homelands any more either. Elsewhere, after WW2, the Germans were evicted from East Prussia by the Poles, the Muslims were evicted from India, and the Hindu from Pakistan. The eviction of the unwanted is nothing new.
