					<description><![CDATA[&lt;i&gt;I despise the breed. When you see references to “Neuroscience” they are all psychologists, talking about “functional MRIs” which they have no legal authority to order, and they sure don’t own these v. costly machines. How well educated are they in neuroanatomy and neurophysiology? &lt;/i&gt;

Very well educated in neuroanatomy and neurophysiology.  That&#039;s their job.  Psychology is quite internally variegated and one wing of it shades off into physiology and biochemistry.  Another is pre-occupied with animal behavior studies.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Another point:

Any study in the Psychological sciences -- in fact, pretty much ALL the &quot;soft&quot; sciences (i.e., not math, not physics, not chemistry, not engineering -- things that are innately subject to real-world testing for validity) are subject to the Decline Effect. This particularly includes the social sciences and... yup, &quot;Climate Science&quot;.

While there are many reasons argued for it, it is unquestionably the Truth that it is happening, and I personally assert that it is because of exceedingly BAD &quot;science&quot;. The tests are set up poorly, repeated poorly, subject to confirmation bias, etc. etc. etc.

http://wolfhowling.blogspot.com/2011/01/scientific-method-its-limits-decline.html

https://www.newyorker.com/news/news-desk/more-thoughts-on-the-decline-effect

Again, a lot of this ties to bad science -- we&#039;ve got all too many people willing to compromise &lt;b&gt;the &lt;i&gt;process&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt; to support the Agenda.
And that is what Science really is -- a process for determining the &lt;i&gt;reliability&lt;/i&gt; of an assertion. 

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EYPapE-3FRw

It&#039;s not The Truth, it&#039;s &lt;b&gt;never&lt;/b&gt; &quot;Settled&quot;, and it&#039;s always always always subject to re-examination and rejection as incorrect &quot;as far as we know.&quot;

Which is why it was such a beautiful thing to see something as mundane as Steak-Umms take down that posturing jackass NDeG Tyson:
https://dailycaller.com/2021/04/13/steak-umms-brand-sandwich-meat-tees-off-neil-degrasse-tyson/

People like him are a big part of the problem. They mislead people as to what Science is... it&#039;s not a religion, which reveals indisputable Truth as long as you believe in Science. It&#039;s a process for approaching truth, nothing more. It&#039;s the best one we&#039;ve found yet, but it&#039;s never, ever been about the final be-all-end-all of The Truth. And if you doubt a claim, this does not make you &quot;unscientific&quot;.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[}}} Bilwick: &lt;i&gt;Cicero: “Anyone who goes to ‘libertarianism’ as a reliable deep-thought informational resource is in error.” Of course. People who consistently value their liberty and eschew aggression are such bozos.&lt;/i&gt;

Not really familiar with that site, but I have been making a distinction between Capital-L Libertarians and small-L libertarians for multiple decades. Libs are almost as stupid-clueless as Liberals when it comes to the libertarian notion, which it probably the ideal one, but, as with anything else, it is exceptionally possible to Take It And Run Straight Off The End Of The Earth With It.

Fact is, there is really NO CONCEPT comprehensible to the mind of Man which some dipshit can&#039;t do that with.... libertarianism is a prime example.

I had more than one argument with idiots over the Iraq war, including one who insisted that we were invaders, and widely hated by ALL Iraqis, except pure lackeys. This genius&#039; position was that the polls which said that Iraqis were not happy we were there, but didn&#039;t want us to leave until things got stabilized were all taken at gunpoint, and that there was zero support for our presence there.

SMH.

I find such a lack of connection to reality to be most commonly associated with Cap-L types -- usually &quot;Lib Party&quot; members, while not with those who casually define themselves as libertarian. 

Again: Dunno about the site, but I do assert that there are certainly dogmatic, absurdist Libertarians, just as there are dogmatic, absurdist liberals and conservatives. And thus anything from that direction needs just as much vetting for validity and rational basis as any other.

Among other things, Cap-L Libertarians cannot grasp the notion that someone preparing for war, claiming they&#039;re going to destroy you, and getting in your face at every turn just MIGHT be someone whose threats you might want to take seriously BEFORE they act on them.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[To those questioning the psychological study of partisans: all very good questions; I don&#039;t have the answers. 
Just something to think about looking into further.
Plus, it confirms my own biases!]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[&quot;if i can deny amazon a few bucks i’m just sticking it to THE MAN&quot;

Yes, I find myself going through a process:
1) need something
2) check Amazon, identify something to buy
3) go directly to the company&#039;s website and buy it there
In other words, use Amazon as a viewing platform. Just like people used to go view products at a brick-and- mortar store, then buy online.

If that fails, I go to the Walmart site. They carry nearly everything Amazon has. I guess maybe I should just go there first LOL.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Anyone who goes to &quot;libertarianism&quot; as a reliable deep-thought informational resource is in error. 
Psychological studies are generally crap, and psychologists are usually full of self-important BS to generate incomes sans useful clinical results. I have had sufficient experience with the breed and say this with confidence.  I despise the breed. When you see references to &quot;Neuroscience&quot; they are all psychologists, talking about &quot;functional MRIs&quot; which they have no legal authority to order, and they sure don&#039;t own these v. costly machines. How well educated are they in neuroanatomy and neurophysiology? Not at all well! Try getting a PhD in those two subjects, if you can spare 5 or 6 years.
Psychology is one of the most popular college majors, and we all know that academia, especially in the social &quot;sciences&quot;, has been taken over by the Loony Left.
BTW, non-partisans are sheeple, ignorant and uncaring.]]></description>
