re: #123 Gus 802

I suppose they’re endorsing scientific or technological nationalism. But most people know that flight wasn’t discovered in a vacuum. Nor was rocketry, medicine, math itself, chemistry, photography, and the vast list that follows. I’m sure the likes of Malkin and her cultist following must find Henri Pitot rather troubling because he is French after all. If you break down their thinking you will find that even European discoveries are troubling for the obsessed.

Yep. And it creeps me out. Not to go all Godwin here, but something I only learned later in life was that one of the strategies the Nazis employed early on was forbidding scholars (and doctors) to cite any works in their research that required them to rely on the research of Jews.
That should have sent alarm bells ringing loudly through academia and research. Scholars had to go through all sorts of convolutions in order to only cite ‘Aryan’ works, even to the extent of distorting their papers and footnoting some obscure ‘thinker’ from centuries ago— to avoid giving the credit for some discovery or idea to someone on the ‘unapproved’ list.

IIRC this started long before some of the more obvious and hardcore laws oppressing the Jews.

Night, gus!
