I appreciate it, Schmo. You are kind to mention these things. There are various projects that I may pursue. Ancient studies of some variety may be one.
I think I would love that, and I would be all about making a teacher a successful YouTuber discussing topics within his expertise.

I'm all for teachers and believe the good ones are vastly underpaid. (Let's not get started on Trump trying to dismantle the Department of Education. I'm currently delaying the wave of rage coming over that one).
Another could be my interest in electronic music. The synth folk are also crazy, but I would probably worry a lot less about people who are dumb enough to get upset over opinions about retail merchandise.
Are you a musician too? Just an avid fan?

Thanks, Schmo! I am horrified by Trump's attack on education. Education usually works against right-wing politics. When a right-winger is highly educated, I think their ability to empathize must be sub-par.

I have thought about doing something that mixes politics and ancient studies, but, honestly, I think that move would only be doable if I resigned from my job. My state government is actively seeking to squelch free speech and could easily fire me over my YouTube content. If I decide to quit, then I will definitely do a politics-ancient studies channel.

Yeah! A musician of sorts. I write music using computers and electronic instruments. The CWK intro and outro music is some of my music.

Yeah, or their rationalizing mechanism is in constant overdrive.

Understood.

Well, color me impressed. I just went back to one of your videos to check out the music. I guess I originally assumed it was sampled.

I especially enjoyed the outro music. You're a creative guy, Kish.

Thanks! I value the praise! It isn't sampled. It was all recorded by me long ago.

If by portraying the "Progressive Platform" as a pile of crap, do you mean the 2024 democratic platform that you still haven't looked and commented about, as far as I can tell? If so, merely characterizing as a pile of crap in general without specifying what in particular you find crappy about it is intellectually lazy and does nothing but expose your extreme, willful ignorance and unthoughtful bias. What, specifically, do you find so horrible about it, if anything? I sincerely want to know!
No precept or claim is more suspect or more likely to be false than one that can only be supported by invoking the claim of Divine authority for it--no matter who or what claims such authority.

Oh, I thought that was Hound's self-portrait taking a huge dump on the Progressive Platform!

Are you sure it isn't?

How did you get the impression that I was sure it isn't? I think that is as plausible interpretation of his graphic as any. That doesn't change the validity and intent of my challenge to him.

If he really intended to portray himself as an ignorant moron like Homer Simpson, I won't argue with him about that!

Shall I throw in a black shirt and a sprinkle of dandruff on his shoulders, all while capturing the essence of a man valiantly battling to raise a coffee cup to his lips? It could serve as a rather fitting self-portrait for your avatar, don't you think?

I predict that in 2026, there is a strong likelihood, at least 90% that the Republicans will secure enough seats in the Senate to achieve a 60-seat majority, and this will be attributed to images like this one.

This image captures two moments in time, both taken at the exact same instant. A young man fighting cancer is being recognized by the president of the United States during a national address. On the left is the Democratic Party, present in the same room as the president and the young man, while the rest of the audience stands and applauds for the young man; the Democrats chose to remain seated in protest. This image is truly repulsive and demonstrates that Trump has single handedly shattered the Democratic Party.

One man single-handedly dismantled an entire party by himself. The progressive message is so feeble that it only requires an overweight, orange haired real estate mogul to dismantle it.
