Robert Steele: Vilification of the Confederate Flag is Abusive, Despicable, Ignorant Public Misbehavior
Cultural Intelligence
Every time I think I have seen President Obama hit bottom he exceeds my previous expectations. The recent vilification of the heritage of half the country, criminalizing the symbol of that heritage for tens of millions of Americans, is gratuitously divisive, to say the least. It also displays a stunning ignorance of history, and a cavalier disrespect for fact that I find disgusting.
As a practical matter, removing all Confederate-battle-flag items from National Park Service battlefield concessionaires is incendiary, not just ridiculous — beyond juvenile to the point of criminal insanity. This is misbehavior worthy of the impeachment of the President for attacking, with malice aforethought, an entire culture long abused by the North and its financial backers.

Technology Takes It on the Nose
I put this passage in my quote file:
But technology is not neutral – and neither is code nor numbers. There are human, subjective judgments lurking behind the apparent objectivity offered by algorithms and the “user-friendly” operating systems. These technologies perform almost magically, while at the same time enabling all sorts of organizations to easily collect information about us, something that makes it that bit easier to usher in new forms of surveillance and control.

Patrick L. Smith: US & NATO Restart Cold War + NATO RECAP
Commerce, Corruption, Government, Idiocy, IO Deeds of War, Military
Our leaders and media push time-worn nonsense about American innocence, while taking aggressive moves. Look out
EXTRACT
As of this week, leaders who know nothing about leading, thinkers who do not think and opinion-shaping poseurs such as Tom Friedman are confident enough in their case to sally forth with it: The Cold War returns, the Russians have restarted it and we must do the right thing—the right thing being to bring NATO troops and materiel up to Russia’s borders, pandering to the paranoia of the former Soviet satellites as if they alone have access to some truth not available to the rest of us.
