Thomas Sowell is 95 years old.
Let that number sit with you.
Ninety-five years on this earth, and in all of them, he has never held public office, never had a viral moment, never begged for anyone’s attention.
What he has done is write 30 books and spend 50 years of patient research building a body of work that has outlasted every fashionable idea his critics tried to bury him with.
While the loudest voices in Washington were chasing polls and the cleverest minds on campus were chasing grants, Sowell was in the library reading the data, tracking the outcomes, and dismantling one bad idea after another.
He doesn’t argue feelings.
He measures results.
He isn’t selling anything.
His whole approach boils down to one line that every politician and activist in this country should be forced to recite before they open their mouths:
“There are no solutions. There are only trade-offs.”
Sit with that, too.
Every federal program, every mandate, every well-meaning crusade carries a cost, and somebody pays it.
Sowell’s life work has been the simple act of asking who.
Listen to him on the “help” our communities have been promised for two generations:
“I’ve been doing studies now for 20 years of programs designed to increase equality. They increase inequality.”
“Even when the programs are designed for disadvantaged groups, they help the affluent members of the disadvantaged groups, while the lower members of those groups fall further behind than ever before.”
That is the whole affirmative action racket laid out in two sentences.
The kids from the same zip codes as the Harvard faculty get the slot, while the kids from the neighborhoods that actually need a ladder are told to wait their turn.
Sowell says it plain:
“The vast majority of blacks who go to places like Harvard, Cornell, and Stanford are not blacks from the ghetto. They’re from the same neighborhoods as the whites there.”
The race hustlers don’t want you to know that, because they need the grievance to stay in business.
Sowell’s advice to young people cuts right through the hustle:
“Stay away from the race hustlers.”
“Equip yourself with skills that people are willing to pay for.”
That is the whole ball game right there, a matter of skills, work, and accountability rather than slogans, hashtags, or another federal program designed to pad a consultant’s salary while leaving the South Side worse off than before.
Here is the line I want every young person in Cincinnati, Cleveland, Columbus, and every other corner of America to read tonight:
“Much of the social history of the Western world over the past three decades has involved replacing what worked with what sounded good.”
That one sentence explains our schools, our cities, and why the neighborhoods the War on Poverty was supposed to save are in worse shape now than they were before the checks started flowing.
Sowell has pushed a whole generation of us to stop reacting and start asking harder questions.
What are the incentives?
Who actually benefits from this policy?
What do the numbers look like five, ten, twenty years later?
Ask those questions honestly, and the illusion falls apart.
The most dangerous man in America right now isn’t the one shouting on television.
He is the 95-year-old professor in Palo Alto who doesn’t need you to agree with him, because he has the data on his side.
Ninety-five years of telling the truth.
Thank you, Dr. Sowell.

Communists have a history of being ruthless in their pursuit of power, even at the expense of national interests.
During World War II, the CCP focused on preserving its strength by avoiding direct confrontation and even collaborating with the Japanese—ultimately leading to the defeat of the Nationalist government and the takeover of China in 1949.
Now we are witnessing history repeating, not just in Spain, but across western world!

Unfortunately Ukraine has been forced to use robots since it lacks the manpower to defeat Russia.
This is a " revolution in military affairs". Better get use to it.

I woke up today
Another chance to begin again, to breathe, to exist.
Not everyone gets that gift.
And even though life isn't always easy
I'm grateful for the chance to keep going.
@Atobiggy@Tina22_2@elonmusk You should've broken the circle of hatred. Learn to live, and forgive your white neighbors. Rather than embrace the dark side of anger, hatred, and resentment.

This is not the first time.
In 1971, the UN kicked the Republic of China (ROC) out, including from the Security Council, and replaced it with the CCP.
The ROC earned that seat through the efforts and sacrifices it made resisting the Japanese during WWII, while the CCP was hiding in the caves of Yan'an. By 1971, Mao’s regime had turned China into a hell on earth, with up to 80 million people losing their lives.
Abolish the UN!
Syria (Aleppo) in the 1950s, when 40% of the population was Christian. Today, it’s less than 1%. This is the case for all the Middle East under Islam. Funny how no one cares about this genocide.

“I don’t want people making decisions who don’t pay the price of their decisions. That’s what politics is all about—you don’t pay the price of your decisions.”
"The biggest myth about labor unions is that unions are for the workers. Unions are for unions, just as corporations are for corporations and politicians are for politicians."
— Thomas Sowell
Communists are more evil than Nazis because they murdered more people in more countries over a longer time frame.
Communism killed roughly 300–400% more people than Nazism (i.e., 4–5 times as many).
While the world debates “consent” and “empowerment,” a Yazidi girl revealed to CNN how ISIS fighters justified raping her: “This will make you Muslim.”
Her sisters were traded like cheap goods ,sold for weapons, for $10, or even a pack of 10 cigarettes.
These barbaric crimes were carried out in the name of a twisted and cruel ideology that treated innocent Yazidi girls as worthless.
Yet the world scrolls past.
