Oh no two embarrassingly bad motions by the fringe left puppet masters ruled illegal. Teachers dont have to teach stuff they find unsuitable because of their beliefs and loans cannot be dismissed by the prez. Now lets get some tough rulings against mass migration please.

It is not about aptitude.

The issue is that from the bottom up everyone on your side is full of shit.

Shit is shit no matter how cleverly argued or sincerely held.

This would be funnier if it were not so sad.  Glaringly obvious that Bambu did not read the entire article, and that the Lionel Trilling quote at the beginning about irritable mental gestures which seek to resemble ideas describes almost the entirety of his output here.  His and Redwards postings here function as a rock solid QED to Lofgrens thesis.

Yes, shit is shit. The conservative movements are anti-intellectual, because they so utterly reject critical thinking and facts that are not favorable to their medieval roots.  The part of the article about Joseph de Maistre was spot on.  No political ideology has so completely failed to incorporate empirical input as conservatism.  That is why every attempt at a chat about actual ideas and concepts here ends with deflection, distraction, cries of SCOREBOARD, and gleeful attacks on liberals with a puerile focus on optics and/or age.

LOL!

The recent liberal dissents at Scotus were embarrassingly  sophmoric and missing substance,
See Justice Sotomayor and her reference to the Pulse Nightclub.
One wonders what planet this so called wise Latina is on.
As for Justice Jackson she is apparently clueless to the feelings of Americans who in every polling demogroahic want Affirmative Action to just go away. It is especially revalent to Justice Jackson who is on the court , as Winsome Sears pointed out, ONLY  because she is Black and a woman.
If anything you would hope she would have heeded the wisdom of Clarence Thomas who often laments that AA is a double edged sword in that those helped by it face criticism they did not make it on merit.
One hopes Justice Jackson has more to give than that word  salad of a dissent.

Red is frothy. Bambu is snappy.

Neither likes being called out and exposed.

Why are white power advocates all such snowflakes?

Young voters ...most seemingly brainwashed Left at schools and universities ...are said to be ruling the world today.
They booted Trump out of office in America and ScoMo and Treasurer Josh out of office in Australia.
Now they have to lie in the bed they made fo themselves...and in Australia their bed is very uncomfortable. Their leftist Prime Minister has been told "N0" by the Right a few times recently.

Red continues to confirm my beliefs.

When Bambi says young voters he means anyone under 75. He keeps his brain as dirty and as stunted as it was before he started school. With him it is a point of pride.
