re: #718 LudwigVanQuixote

Of course you are correct again, and that is a fabulous reference and essay. I am particularly struck the notion that they hate science but love tanks…

Yes. They hate science and the Enlightenment and Enlightenment values, (genuine inquiry, the genuine scientific mind or process)— but worship technology.Despise modernity and the Modern mind (and here we mean Modern Era, i.e., Enlightenment)— worship certain products, not all, of that thinking.

Seriously, that essay rocks. It’s the Republican hive-mind as of now.
