re: #134 Absalom, Absalom, Obdicut

Yeah, I was looking for actual statistics. Here we go:

It looks like racism is very clearly decreasing. The effects of racism are decreasing at a much slower rate.

I guess what I”m asking is why is Beck’s ranting about a race war a crazy conspiracy theory but you saying we’re entering Brave New World-ism (a society where people are genetically manipulated to be certain intelligence levels, a command economy rules the world, and the populace is supplied with a heroin/prozac-like drug) is sensible?

Unless by “Brave New World” you think that Brave New World was an allegory.

Personally, I think it’s more like Idiocracy than Brave New World.
