ESSENTIAL Freitas video: “Churchill, Franco, and Rhodesia: Rethinking the Villains and Heroes of History.”

-

This is from about 10 months ago. Hopefully he has learned a little bit more,, along with his wife, but he is definitely on track.

Still supports Churchill. Having trouble with moral equivalencies regarding Franco. Actually, coming around mildly on Rhodesia, but having trouble understanding colonization. He needs to talk to Matt Walsh.

Comments:

1:58:00 or so.  Toward the end, the lady heads toward the ultimate self guilt. She says we are not as good as we think because we are becoming dominated by people who think we are not as good as we thinkwe are. She’s blaming us for the actions and policies implemented by people who are in fact our enemies.

Objective truth should always be the goal.

That said… if you’re going to have to accept bias, accept bias in favor of your own side.

The thing about principles is that if they caused you to lose an existential fight, there was something wrong with those principles.

THE DAILY FUDD: E282: “Wheel of Fudd: Article on US military revolvers.”

Interesting is that the training manual post World War II seems to allow for individual choice of calibers, plus even single-action revolvers. While standardization is important, I do like the idea of possible use of private firearms in the capacity. https://www.shootingillustrated.com/content/the-evolution-of-military-revolver-training/?fbclid=IwY2xjawMdWBFleHRuA2FlbQIxMQABHrOEhoZkhpbXE0dYPVAPw_piYKbXZ4Bmyj8qpovQ6oDjXhvtAOC3io0Ta0p4_aem_0Dd-JTDP_frKAY02wP5xMw Snip More at link above.

And one stolen, the only change being the sword changed to a rifle barrel. One added, improved version of one above: Better background. Removed loose-hanging hose. It is a flaw in the original W40K design. The smart way would be to have the hose more closely clamped to the body. It would still permit free movement of the head.  I like this backpack design, even with the exposed tube or two. Needs a better image of the soldier. O D Dedese   UL: Uses original bag, but hangs low. UR: Hangs higher, but cat has no forward view. LL: Forward view and cargo carriage, but large and dome looks odd. LR: Forward view and cargo carriage, but...
