Indeed. The current preoccupation with influencers just muddles my brain. I used to read two good conservative writers, Jenkin Loyd Jones and James Kilpatrick. That was long ago and far away (like another planet.). Now they are cult nuts, no need to muddle my brain with that…. I admit to being disappointed when somebody I respected (celebrity or next door) blathers admiration for a carnival barker, but not many can move my needle very much. It is a hard won position.
Thanks JD, LInda for that interesting chat! I do get the feeling Phil's beat up on modern education and standardized testing is a bit over the top. After all, Half plus of America are voting Harris , lol
Only half is a travesty. The eventual outcome depends to a great extent on how Murdoch reports. His team that called for Biden in 2020 got fired. Murdoch can be fair or he can get fined again for being the monster he is. Hope our MSM eventually learns
We learn what we can in the ways we can!
Some learn what carnival barkers spew, sad to say. And think that it’s the Gospel.
Some just tag along witlessly following "celebrities". Never have understood that.
