The Cowardice of Their Convictions 0

The Des Moines Register’s Reka Basu calls out Republicans’ efforts to ban “critical race theory” and, along with that, honest discussion of American history. A snippet:

. . . having anyone connect the dots from the foundation of the United States to our current racial inequality is so threatening to a growing number of Republicans in and out of Iowa, they’re actually outlawing it.

It’s too guilt-inducing, they say.

Aside:

Methinks it induces guilt because the guilt is deserved, and they can’t face that.

Or perhaps they feel no guilt and don’t want others to do so.

It contains no private information. It does not drop persistent cookies, does not collect data other than incoming ip addresses and page views (the internet is a public place), and certainly does not collect and sell your information to others.

Some sites that I link to may try to track you, but that's between you and them, not you and me.

I do collect statistics, but I use a simple stand-alone Wordpress plugin, not third-party services such as Google Analitics over which I have no control.

Finally, this is website is a hobby. It's a hobby in which I am deeply invested, about which I care deeply, and which has enabled me to learn a lot about computers and computing, but it is still ultimately an avocation, not a vocation; it is certainly not a money-making enterprise (unless you click the "Donate" button--go ahead, you can be the first!).

I appreciate your visiting this site, and I desire not to violate your trust.
