The West won the world not by the superiority of its ideas or values or religion … but rather by its superiority in applying organized violence. Westerners often forget this fact; non-Westerners never do.
--S. Huntington

The most fundamental problem of politics is not the control of wickedness but the limitation of righteousness.

Whichever President campaigns for equal rights for bricks in 2020 has my vote.

None of that "Keep America Great!" nonsense in 2020.

Not exactly. Humans are primates that managed to rise above all the other primates because of tools and the capability of storing information outside the confines of our heads.
