How Stupidity Is Manufactured

Paul Rosenberg – Yes, manufactured. It’s done all day, every day, and especially in the most advanced parts of the world. And I can prove it to you.

Please look at this diagram and tell me which of the lines on the right side, A, B, or C, is the same length as the line on the left.

That isn’t too hard, is it? A is obviously shorter and B is obviously longer. The answer is C.

This diagram was part of an experiment run back in 1951 by a psychologist named Solomon Asch. And as you might expect, when people were asked to identify the same-length line in a neutral setting, more than 99% did it correctly. Continue reading

The Importance to Liberals of Ignorance and Stupidity

stupidity

Jeffrey T. Brown“Nothing in the world is more dangerous than sincere ignorance and conscientious stupidity.”  So said Martin Luther King, Jr.  The danger lies, in part, in the fact that these characteristics are both intellectual and moral defects, which render the possessor of these flaws vulnerable to manipulation by those who use the illusion of morality to accomplish utterly immoral ends.

Never in our lifetimes have these two flaws been more proudly demonstrated and celebrated than now, in reaction to the presidency of Donald Trump.  Because of his effect, the incoherent emotionalism of the left, coupled with leftists’ carefully taught inability to think rationally or critically, has been revealed to us on a disturbingly grand scale.  The extent had been largely hidden from us for decades as liberals and progressives felt safe and thus had no need to openly fight for the overthrow that was coming incrementally, without violent conflict.

Now, as their sacred cows are being corralled and butchered by the one man they didn’t think existed, a non-politician who is an apostate from their political gutter faith, leftists have had to reveal themselves, showing us their innermost selves as they angrily fight all that this country has been and may still be under years of liberal garbage and neglect.

50 Cent Called To Bankruptcy Court To Explain Posted Pictures With Stacks Of Money Spelling “Broke”

Jonathan Turley – It is bad enough to represent a guy in a bankruptcy case named “50 Cent.” It is even more difficult when your client says that he is broke and then posts an image of himself with piles of money spelling out the word “broke.” Just to make sure that the court did not miss the disconnect, Curtis James Jackson III (aka 50 Cent) also posted himself on a bed covered with piles of money. It worked. Judge Ann Nevin and his creditors took notice and now 50 Cent has been called to court. Jackson seems to be competing with the bankrupt Kanye West for the world’s greatest certifiable numbskull. The pictures however raise a question of the significance of such pictures used to maintain the “bad boy” image of such personalities.

50 Cent

50 Cent is in Chapter 11 bankruptcy and creditors are seeking $7 million. Judge Nevin ordered 50 Cent to appear and explain the photos, noting

“I’m concerned about allegations of nondisclosure and a lack of transparency in the case. There’s a purpose of having a bankruptcy process be transparent, and part of that purpose is to inspire confidence in the process.”
