There's no point in denying it human beings are all hypocrites I haven't ever met one who wasn't a hypocrite in some way or another the only people who try to change that are people who are so idealistic that they have no longer got a grasp on reality. Of course I mean the woke. Anyway thanks for all the great articles William and Merry Christmas though I risk endangering the sensitivities of the woke by saying that.

Merry Christmas, William. In my own feeble attempt to communicate with Substackers, I had occasion to quote Sun Tzu. The quote was similar to Machiavelli's.

We are engaged in a war where the USA (as NATO's hammer) is determined to conquer and dominate the world. I, for one, support Russia against the World Economic Forum and its puppets.

The issue of slavery is a complex one. Of course, it is still popular in Islamic countries and sex slaves are used and traded among some of the richest people in the West.

The mentality of our Founding Fathers was much different than our own. The slaves they bought were already slaves, of course, and the laws of the United States would have ended that "peculiar institution" by the 19th Century without Lincoln's war of aggression against the South. The importation of slaves was illegal long before 1860 and tariffs punished the South (particularly the people of South Carolina) to the point that, like Russia in 2022, they had no recourse besides claiming nullification and secession.

But, life goes on.
