Measured Consideration of our Political Parties

There are patriots in both parties, but some on the radical left reject patriotism and openly proclaim they hate their country. There are religious people in both parties, but some on the radical left reject God and in fact hate Him. Sadly, there are criminals and crime victims in both parties but some on the …

Job Saga

Here are my Gab posts about negotiating a position at Big Company in Big Blue City. https://gab.com/doctor_weasel/posts/107788734566317234 Anton L. Weasel, Ph.D.@doctor_weasel Feb 12· Gab folks, I want your advice. I have a good job. I like what I do, I like my co-workers, I like my manager. The work I do is important and it …

Fascism, Marxism, et cetera

As the popular culture would have it, Fascism is all about brutality and Marxism is all about economics. This popular impression is wrong in multiple ways. First, Fascism is definitely about economics and was not particularly brutal (hold on, bear with me, see below). Second, Marxism is an economic system that relies in all cases …

Arguing with a leftist

Sadly typical of leftists stalking conservative sites looking for an argument. A commenter calling himself 'Biden_Derangement_Syndrome' started out accusing me based on nothing. Then he started making threats that had no substance. Lots of lies, of course. Not the first time I have had words with leftists. The original link to an Instapundit page is …

Stupid Nuclear Negotiation Proposals

I have been reading a lot about 'nuclear sharing', the US provision of nuclear weapons to some NATO allies. The allies train to use the weapons, and could be ordered by NATO to use them in a war if the US President allowed it. Until then, the weapons are at bases in Europe, under US …

When the Assassins came to School

This is a story about a hockey game. The setting is a college in Michigan, where an international exhibition game took place in the 1980s. I'll get back to hockey later, though. First some background. An officer defected from the Soviet Army. He had served in military intelligence, and was an expert on all aspects …

Me and COVID-19 and vaccine

Here is a collection of my posts on Gab from my very mild bout with COVID-19 (but see the last post). Saved here for convenience, with the replies. Edited to add my wife's vaccine story. March 25, 2021, 20:14. My COVID saga so far: wife started showing symptoms March 12. We have made no effort …

Sharing and Proliferation

Picture a future period where the Russian threat and the threats of terrorism and rogue states have all receded, due to the skillful strategic maneuvering of a US president. Like Eisenhower, this president's maneuvers are far enough from the eyes of the media that he gets little credit for his wise and bold actions. Thus, …

Calexit: Under Consideration

I sketched an outline of the coming California secession and followed up with a look at the forces involved.  It was all just some ranting from some crazed, conservative, diminutive carnivore.  A right-wing, paranoid weasel who claims he can predict the future. Sure, that's all it was.  So don't worry about a group of Democrat …

Advice for Women in Management

Update below Why am I, a weasel, and a male one at that, giving advice to women in management roles?  Because I have something to say. I have had good managers and bad ones, but the ones who struck me as the worst were female.  It doesn't have to be that way.  Ladies, if you …
