Led by local leftwing intellectual legend Mr Steven Frisch, the readers and yours truly have been labeled “batshit crazy” in comment streams here and leftwing blogs elsewhere for doubting or debating the science behind major public issues like preventable manmade global warming, Covid-19 response policies, and even the effect of taxes on economic behavior. While making these hubristic accusations, they totally ignore the actual batshit crazy policies and proposals constantly issuing from the country’s putrid progressive pundits and politicians highlighted by such intellectual compositions such as the Green New Deal, Medicare for All, Common Core curriculum, the BLM and Antifa manifestos, America’s new revisionist history a la Zinn and the 1619 Project, and … the list goes on indefinitely.
Today the Left has elevated their batshit crazy propositions onto steroid levels with their claims that STEM studies are really expressions of white supremacy and racist. More and more leftwing academicians are hoisting their true intellectual colors with such statements as from Brooklyn College Professor of Math Education Laurie Rubel who claims that math is an expression of “white supremacist patriarchy” and, joined by other pinhead peers, to insist that “math should be reevaluated because it was primarily developed by white men.” (more here)
Instead of hiding behind their beloved and well-practiced Alinsky Angle with which the socialists loudly accuse their political opposites of doing exactly what they have done and continue to do, I challenge these socialist sages to step up and publicly defend their ideas with similar dedication and depth that we of the conservetarian leanings here employ in our apologetics. After many years in these pages, we are still looking for something besides baseless ad hominems from their side. Where is their defense of, say, the Green New Deal, or the joys of socialism, or that ‘2+2=4’ is racist, or … . (also see comment stream of the last Sandbox and at Bob Crabb's)
So here’s a thesis to debate – ‘It is proposed that dedicated Democrats, following in the footsteps of their political leaders and notable academics, are in various forms intellectually disabled or delinquent (aka batshit crazy).’ No one should hold their breath that this challenge will be answered.
