Thomas Sowell Quote

“With all the pious talk about "tolerance" in the media and in academia, there is virtually none for those who challenge the dogmas of political correctness in most of our colleges and universities.”

Dang it, Absolutely correct. There are a few exceptions hidden from the public eye.

Mr Sowell, you are not alone in the lack of empathy and sympathy for the the disadvantaged. You conventional creatures don't have the slightest understanding of the human challenge we face. You're just a bunch bullies trying to misrepresent good as bad and bad as good. This evening I had the power of suggestion trick pulled on me. Pool was the suggestion. Now how long do "you hope" before its takes to go in effect. You're mentally ill, I'm mentally healthy, the truth is good.  Socialism is the challenge of social abilities to create the adult reality.

Further, Mr Sowell, you are misrepresenting, for I am the sole support for tolerance. Everyone challenges correctness because correctness of any kind slashes drug and sex transactions. Socialism is the challenge of social abilities to create an elimination of the drug and sex trades.

"I am the sole support for tolerance," says Fred.  Messianic complex much?

No Mr Archer, the sad commentary is that I am the only sincere progressive. The rest are still partying likes it's 1999, while I am the only one for tolerating change and growth.  Socialism is the challenge of social abilities to create tolerance.

For such an expert on socialism you sure seem to be anti-social.  As far as I can tell, your "social abilities" are non-existent.  No wonder 'socialism is a challenge' for you.

Social abilities must convey the truth Mr Archer, or they're just some insincere dramatic performance as our day to day relationships clearly reveal. My life time expressions have revealed a percentage that arrives at a way over 99% unscripted sincerity rate,  a very sound social characteristic. Socialism is a challenge like anything in life of value, anything of worth, Mr Archer, you have to earn it. Your post is uncoordinated as your life's presentation. I'm not here to insult you, just inform you for your own good. A psychotic will find me antisocial, but a honest sincere responsible individual will observe in me a very responsible individual. Socialism is the challenge of social abilities to create objectivity.

Mr Archer, 99% honest expression rate in a time when "never an honest word when I ruled the world" as the poet sings, not bad. Socialism is the challenge of social abilities to create the Maximum Wage.

Interesting, Mr Archer, with your comment of Messiah complex. I offered someone my position. He stated it would be like the Messiah, and he didn't care to follow in the footsteps of the last Messiah. It's not the Messiah business, it's simply addressing the life process. I'm not a Messiah. I'm just a simple believer in the formulations of social scientific application. This fellow was not a scientist. He was just another business fellow, a politician of sorts, and I was fooled by him and his associate.  I am a scientist, well the closest qualifications we have for the position, not a pseudo scientist anyway.  I'm not a politician. Scientists are in the practice of finding life sustaining formulas, and that is definitely my intention. Socialism is the challenge of social abilities to create authentic scientific discovery.
