The real big problem with developing an ego and convincing yourself that you are smarter than everyone else is that you have to start lying to yourself about your opponent's capabilities. To maintain the fiction of your superiority, you must reject information which will assist you in your conflict.

“What did they have that eludes their lesser-known heirs today? The answer is that Kissinger & Brzezinski were immigrants. Newcomers often value America’s freedoms more than its native-born and are statistically far likelier to start companies, win Nobel Prizes & launch schools of thought.” ~Ed Luce

as I've noted, a lot — maybe most — of American evangelicals are Manichean. Everything good is of God, everything bad is of Satan, and there's nothing else. If you're Christian, whatever you do is of God, and if you're nonchristian (or the wrong kind of Christian) you're actually serving Satan.

Increasing authoritarianism, totalitarianism, corruption. Decreasing rule of law, expertise, honesty. Oh, America, you’re getting monstrous again.

[Columbo, pauses and turns around] Just one more thing, Mr. Trump. It's probably nothing. But you said many times that the exporting country pays the tariff. Not the American taxpayer. Well, if that's the case, then why would you exclude smartphones?
