In a world where facts don't matter, those of an intellectual bent will be shunned and ignored. Ignorance will rule. Those with the strongest feelings will prevail. And harsh reality, when it rears its ugly head (because reality doesn't care about whether you beleive in facts or not - facts are all that matter in reality) - when that happens - convenient scape goats will be found.
In the meanwhile, we are all screwed.
Happy Mother's Day Everyone!

well shit shit shit. I hope depression didn't the best of you.
I just found your blog (cosleeping toddler post that sounds like I wrote it, except that you wrote it 7 years ago so you're my future and I'm your past) and I kept reading lots and lots and lots of old posts. My husband and I are atheists and progressives and intellectuals keenly aware of society's problems. We want to raise our kid(s?) to deal adaptively with all the bullshit they'll encounter and maybe even find solutions we never thought of. I know it's a fine line
between cynicism and despair. My husband is fond of saying he'll be on his death bed when the shit truly hits the fan (ie. the world is uninhabitable), but since having a child, I don't allow him that indulgence anymore. Now it matters that we don't give up. When we're on our death beds, our son will be us now. What will he need to thrive that we should be giving him now? I refuse to give up or to let my husband or any other smart people give up. I'm tired of people giving up. The smartest people I know end up falling to drugs, alcohol, suicide, or apathy. Thinking follows anger follows despair follows surrender. We need to keep thinking, and then go the other way! Never stop brainstorming, looking for solutions, talking, changing. Thinking can follow hope can follow action can follow change. For our kids, at least. My husband and I have found hope and comfort in teaching. As teachers we have access to growing minds and we can plant the seeds of intellection there. We can raise questions, prompt discussion, and encourage critical thinking. That'll sound creepy to the book-banners out there, but you know I mean it in the healthiest way possible. It has got to matter for SOMETHING. It's got to be better than NOTHING.
Please, don't give up. None of us is a revolution of one. There are millions of us. Thinkers, questioners, writers, talkers, solution-seekers, innovators. We all feel alone because we're surrounded by noise and mess. Look at the thousands of views on your blog alone. You're tired of blogging. OK. That's fine. I don't blog either. I never even comment on anything. But here I am commenting on your "failed" blog. That one damn cosleeping post you wrote 7 years ago continues to help people every day who feel they have only Google to help connect them to likeminded people. Sometimes it does feel that way. But it can't be. If "the grid" disappeared tomorrow, would discourse die with it?
What I want to know is, have you given up entirely, or just on your blog? I want to know that, since you seem to be a glimpse of my future, you haven't found hope to be altogether too elusive a quarry...

Condannato al carcere a Milano ad inizio anni 2000. "Il funzionario di Citibank in grossi guai" come da finale del seguente articolo era assolutissimamente lui.

Il, vi assicuro, pure frequentissimo mandante di omicidi, Paolo Barrai, e' uno degli assolutissimi "suicidatori" di David Rossi di Monte Paschi. Insieme ai criminali, killer, mega ricicla soldi mafiosi Silvio Berlusconi, Ennio Doris, Massimo Doris, Edoardo Lombardi, Ettore Parlato Soadafora, Oscar di Montigny di Banca Mediolanum. Fra il Giugno 2010 ed il Marzo 2011 ( allorche' David Rossi fu prima ferito a morte nel suo ufficio, prima, tagliandogli le vene, poi colpendolo al cranio con un aggeggio in ferro, massonico, con punta triangolare, giungente direttamente da H-Ar-d-Core, di proprieta' di Al Capone misto ad Adolf Hitler, Silvio Berlusconi...... per, solo poi, far volare David Rossi stesso dalla finestra) vi era una furibonda guerra di Seo, Search Engine Optimization, fra i bastardi, malavitosi, killer vertici di Finnvest, Mediaset e Banca Mediolanum ( che da dieci anni usano come loro mega ricicla soldi omicida e gangster via internet, questo verme davvero cattivo, davvero bastardo, davvero satan-azista di Paolo Barrai di cui sto scrivendo.. vero e proprio sicario sangunario di assolute Ovra e Gestapo, sia pubbliche che private, del nazimafioso, stragista, pedofilo Silvio Berlusconi) e David Rossi ( ovviamente, lui, per conto della sua banca). Ho varie testimonianze a proposito di come sto frequente mandante di omicidi di Paolo Barrai, dicesse spessissimo, ben appunto, fra il Giugno 2010 ed il Marzo 2011, al telefono e di persona: " abbiamo due persone da far ammazzare al piu' presto, David Rossi di Monte Paschi, che stiam cercando di distruggere via internet, e quel genio borsistico, pero' troppo intelligente ed anti Berlusconiano per i nostri gusti, di Michele Nista, che da Londra, avendo mollato il mio blog, avendolo privato delle sue vincentissime previsioni borsistiche, lo sta ora facendo sprofondare". David Rossi di Monte Paschi fu assolutissimamente fatto ammazzare dagli assassini Silvio Berlusconi, Oscar di Montigny, Ennio Doris, Massimo Doris di Banca Mediolanum piu' altra parte di gang in cravatta, prima citata, insime a loro gangster omicida Paolo Barrai di criminalissima Bsi Italia srl, criminalissima World Man Opportuinites Lugano alias criminalissima Wmo sa Panama. Leggete con quale crudelta', sto ratto di fogna assassino di Paolo Barrai stesso, festeggia qui, la loro "suicidatassassina" di David Rossi. Urlando che fu "giusta cosa che David Rossi morisse ed in detta maniera" ( firmando il loro omicidio, di fatto) e spingendo disumanissimamente, financo, a non partecipare, ai di lui, funerali. E/o di come odiava e ridicolizzava David Rossi stesso, da vivo:
