Whelp, another bad book snookered me....

Previous bad book-

"Mistakes Were Made (But Not By Me)".

God-fucking-dammit.

Sapiens (2011)

Yhep. Book-a-thonned it three years ago.

At least I didn't fall in love with the thing like I did MWMBNBM.

I was actually kinda tepid on it.

Well, look, in this case, it was easy for me to get suckered, because big guns were in on the con.

Barack Obama praised it. Jared Diamond praised it. Bill Gates praised it.

And then PBS gave Jared Diamond his credentials.

Cuz, y'know, PBS.

So, y'know...

WHELP!! Obama, Diamond, Gates, and PBS are fucking stupid.

Cuz this book is full of bad research that could have been fixed by fucking Google, obsolete (and racist!) pseudo-science debunked when I was a baby, and outright fucking lies.

This podcast went through, and fact-checked everything with experts in each field, and virtually none of Harari's claims are left standing.

It's a house of cards.

What it excels at, is giving a big, fat, sloppy, spit-splashy, blowjob to tech oligarchs.

Which explains Bill Gates loving it.

And centrist-Democrats deregulated the tech-bros as much if not moreso than Republicans.

So that explains Obama.

And Diamond and PBS are a grifter and the grifted.

Yep, Jared Diamond is finally ruined for me.

I had a fascist ex-friend who saw through him, and I hate that he's right about something.

But, here we are.

Sigh.

Between this, MWMBNBM, TERFs, Bill Clinton being in the Epstein files, the rise of Elon Musk, the rise of Bari Weiss, and the bullshit saga I went through with my ex-Dawkins-friends, centrist-Dems have to go, and everything they stand for has to be thrown into the sun.

More Bernies, more AOCs, flush out all the Nancy Pelosi types, bury Kyrsten Sinema in thrown tomatoes over her data center bullshit, put Biden in a home, and don't you dare run Kamala again.

Fuck!! Fuck these people!! Godammit!!

Fuuuuuuck!!!

Anyway!! Merry Christmas-eve!!! 🎅😏
