“Whoa! You Missed a Step!”

When I was a boy, all the pictures of all the cavemen in all my books showed them as being white, Caucasian. This seems unlikely; but one way or another, we had no evidence.

Our ancestors painted realistic pictures of Ice Age animals now extinct. Much of what we know about those animals is thanks to ancient paintings on the walls of caves—including their colors and markings on their hides.

But one thing our ancestors didn’t leave us was detailed pictures of themselves. When they included human figures in their art, those were invariably stick figures. No help there.

The scientific study of our remote past began in Europe and for a long time stayed there. Not surprisingly, European and American artists depicted prehistoric people as having white skins like themselves. Again, there was no evidence for it or against it. To that extent, the illustrations in the books were art, not science.

Oh! But now we’re thoroughly scientific!

So all the new illustrations of prehistoric men and women now show them as having dark skin, brown or black. Yes—all of them.

Hello! Is there a missing step here? Why did the published pictures suddenly shift from one stereotype to another? And when? How was that decision made? You find somebody’s thumb-bone from a hundred thousand years ago, and you know the color of his skin?

Anyone who says “Science” is free of politics knows neither science nor politics.

Shift to September, 2023, and the Socialist Conference in Chicago—a gathering of self-anointed utopia-seekers.

Here a panel—they had enough jidrools on hand to make a panel—raised the issue of “children’s liberation,” and a children’s “right” to be sex workers.

And there was no debate as to whether children should be sex workers—prostitutes, in honest English—or involved with any kind of sex at all. They just skipped right over that, presuming, without discussion or dispute, that their socialist utopia would surely have child prostitutes. They took it for granted. Like, who would even think of questioning it?

Is that how we do both “science” and public policy these days? Just state the goal, without a word of how to get there—let alone any consideration as to whether that should be a goal at all? And never mind collecting evidence, either—that only slows down your Long March to Utopia.

Apparently, however hard it is to believe, we have whole gaggles of college-educated nincompoops, many of them teachers and professors in their own right, who think their earthly paradise should include their having sex with children—especially if they’re willing to pay money for it.

This is a grievous wound to our civilization, and it will fester and get worse if we don’t cure it.

Cut off the funding. No one should be paid for teaching and preaching this wickedness.

Cut off their access to our children. The best way to do that is to pull the children out of public schools. These schools are jam-packed with prating fools trained in our Far Left Crazy teachers’ colleges, encouraged and cosseted by Far Left teachers’ unions.

End what we have come to know as “public education,” and Far Left Crazy starves to death.
