Dennis mentioned this latest video and Pat also mentioned it to me today. He posted it on Facebook but the Nazis as Facebook said it didn't meet community standards, which is a nice way of applying the jackboot by these creeps. |

Of course the Nazis at Facebook don't like this video as it lays bare in a very simple and clear way exactly what the Nazis at Facebook and other such companies are doing in the name of tolerance. The are acting as Nazis. George Orwell where are you when we need you?

The link is to a wonderful interview of Thomas Sowell.
It may not be Prager U, but it is the Hoover Institution.

I can, under duress, tolerate communists and moslems. However, it seems that is not reciprocal. Over the last 50 years both of these viruses on humanity have tried to kill me. In turn, I have made terminal their their efforts and will continue to do so, but only when the threat is existential. I don't seek out a fight, but I will not turn away when threatened. I suppose that is a kind of tolerance.

Last night/this morning I had a dream that I was converting to Judaism and Dennis Prager was my rabbi.  |

Were you converting because he was the rabbi, or was it just coincidence?

I can't say. The dream did not go into a lot of detail and was fairly short. I could speculate why Prager was there, but in fact, all I can say was he was there.

I was listening to Dennis today and he mentioned that he's doing Zoom sessions. I missed some of the details so I've emailed him as to cost. I'm thinking a Zoom conference that included me, Mr. Kung, Artler, and Pat might be fun. Timothy would be welcome as well. I'll let you know what I find out. If not exorbitant, I'd certainly cover more than my share of the costs.

That could be worth while. I am also listening to him and he just described his attitude toward humanity which is that he generally holds it in contempt, yet there are many good individuals. He also pointed out that he was no Candide. I thought he was talking about me.
I am listening to him more and more.

Yes, Prager has been the sanest person on this issue. That we align with him, I have to admit, says a lot about us. Other notables are Tucker Carlson and almost certainly Mark Levin. I haven’t listened to Levin in a while but it’s hard imagining him doing his show in a mask.
He mentioned the price but I was concentrating on something else at the time and all the info he related did not soak in. I can’t find mention of the Zoom offer on his website.

I watch videos of Carlson, and listen to Levin, several times a week. I find Carlson to be a better presenter as he does not yell so much. Levin does everyone a disservice by screaming most of the time. At least it seems to be most of the time. He and his message are intelligent and don't need to be yelled out in order to make an impression.

The interview show on Fox, Life, Liberty and Levin, is often the best place for Mark. The conversations are well rounded, sensible and informative. His nightly talk radio show is more dramatic, and 90% of the yelling is Mark just keeping up with some snowflake caller, about an hour once or twice a week is enough.

This isn’t specifically about PragerU, but yesterday some black guy filled in for Dennis and he was on fire. Think “Alan Keyes” with perhaps a little more of the eloquence of the great Walter E. Williams. I *think* it was Kevin Jackson. He was dishing out double-barreled truth and it was a pleasure to hear.
The only thing I disagreed with is that he said that there initially was a need for affirmative action. I would say that when trying to bust out of a mindset whereby people are judged by the color of their skin, doubling-down on it (even if with a new set of villains and angels) is not the way to do it. But he’s certainly not for affirmative action today. |

Today, Dennis Prager had an interesting interview with David Friedman, Trump's ambassador to Israel. He sounded like one of the most straight-shooting, cogent ambassadors I've ever heard. He was hawking his new book, Sledgehammer. I suspect that if there is an interesting book that has been written by an ambassador, this could be it. It certainly sounds as if Friedman was one of the clear adults in the Trump administration. |
