Milcom MiasmaI watched President Biden's speech at the DNC earlier tonight.
I loved the speech. I especially loved his optimism and his message that we as Americans, don't have to be the bigoted, misogynistic, selfish, hateful, and intolerant bullies that the Trump camp needs us to be.

People can be so amazing sometimes.
bs2> In dealing with the U.S. treatment of Iraq (1990-2010), Pinker’s bias is equally impressive. He ignores the “sanctions of mass destruction” imposed between 1990 and 2003, which according to John and #KarlMueller resulted in more deaths than “all so-called weapons of mass destruction throughout history.” Although Pinker cites #JohnMueller often in #BetterAngels, he never cites his (and Karl’s) 1999 article on this subject in Foreign Affairs, or mentions this “violence” landmark.

> #StevenPinker’s #BetterAngels is terrible as.. scholarship and as a guide to the real world. But it is an outstanding snow job, with over a hundred figures, a great many footnotes, and a flood of assured words and arguments that require a certain amount of work to understand. That it['s].. well received in establishment circles is perfectly understandable. Less so is its uncritical treatment by so many people who should know better.

> Pinker fails to explain why elites were then, and still remain, little influenced by the masses marching in the streets who are displaying the growth in spirit of the “better angels.” Why must the masses even march in the streets? Why must the elites continue to engage in military buildups and serious violence at heavy economic cost when, according to his preferred expert #JamesSheehan the state is abandoning military force and focusing on the material well-being of the public?
