Chattel slavery was a terrible mistake, essentially incompatible with liberal civilization, and had to end. The Civil Rights Act was a terrible mistake, with zero positive consequences and incalculable negative ones, and has to end. This is sensible centrism.
Proudly wearing my @PalantirTech swag that @eliano was kind enough to send me! I love the company, the mission, and the philosophy of defending THE GOOD GUYS.
Homeschooling is a way to shield children from a culture of casual sadism, so that by the time they are exposed to it they are mature enough to recognize evil for what it is.
the oceans were too vast
the mountains too high
the skies too empty
the atom too powerful
the moon too distant
the frontier too scary

Woman’s creativity is not, like man’s, a matter of overcoming. This is why there are so few female scientists, philosophers, and explorers. Instead, woman’s creativity is a matter of nurturing or drawing out inner potential from what already is. We see this very obviously in motherhood and in homemaking, and in the professions in which women dominate: nursing (91%), elementary and middle school teaching (81.8%), social work (80.8%), human resources managers (69%), veterinarians (56%), etc. We see it even in the difference between the mysticism of men (like Meister Eckhart) and women (like Hildegard of Bingen): the male, that seeks to penetrate the mystery and know, the female, that seeks to be aflame with it and consumed.
