How Dynamite Spawned the Nobel Prizes
Alfred Nobel wasn't in the best of health but he knew he wasn't dead. Yet, there was his obituary, prominently featured in the morning newspaper. To make matters worse, not only had the newspaper kill...
Fun Fact: Alfred Nobel invented dynamite. He made a fortune. He did not want to be known as the “Merchant of Death”. So he invented the Nobel Prize to honor the world’s brilliant minds. That is the legacy he wanted to be known for, not for a deadly invention.🧪⚛️

Why do Putin, Trump, and the GOP sound so much alike? Their culture wars have similar agendas: Diverting attention from the economic looting of their respective oligarchies. At its core, it’s all about preserving wealth and power. Why Republicans are NOT the Party of Freedom ►► https://youtu.be/IPzlR_mGQIM

If you think Putin's agenda sounds similar to Trump's, there's a reason for that.
Both are trying to distract from the economic looting by their respective oligarchies.

I like politics and religion, but only insofar as they advance the condition of the people who inhabit this finite world.
RIP Eric Flint (1947-2022), you will be eternally missed by your fans. You dealt a blow to reactionaries that cannot be undone.
