People who advocate for “revolution” seem to suffer from that they are rarely bloodless.

You're not wrong, but it looks like things are going to get that bad anyway, so…

Chaperoned a 4th grade class to Cabrillo National Monument which is a conservation area at the end of a naval installation.

As traumatized as we were by 9/11, I think we forget how traumatized the Silent Generation was by the Great Depression, and then World War II.

@paninid People go along with these things for no other reason than that they heard about them from others and they want to be a part of it. They have very sloppy habits. They believe things for no good reason whatsoever.

That includes ‘scientists’!

People believe the ‘Magic Bullet’ theory without even knowing which bullet it is supposed to be. They will think it is the bullet that killed the president. It was the other bullet that supposedly had to do loops (but actually had a straight line).

@paninid A flag memorializing soldiers missing in action would not be a bad thing. They are not being held as prisoners somewhere to be freed by Chuck Norris, however.

That is some guys not wanting the war to be over and them having lost it. It was such a trauma it burrowed into the culture and made a movie and TV star of a kickboxer.

The Pessimists Archive jogs “our collective memories about the hysteria, technophobia and moral panic that often greets new technologies, ideas and trends.”
