“If you’ve ever heard of George Mason University economist Robin Hanson, there’s a good chance it was because he wrote something creepy. Over the years, the libertarian-leaning professor has become notorious in certain circles for his odd and disconcerting dips into socio-sexual commentary; he once mused on his blog, for instance, about whether women who suffered a “gentle, silent rape” were really worse off than men who experienced infidelity. Last week, Hanson was back at it again. In a post that left many readers agog, he decided to use a heinous incident of misogynistic violence as an opportunity to contemplate the concept of “redistributing” sex to men who have trouble getting laid.”
Cinquo De Mayo, in certain arcane* views, is linked to keeping the French (Mexico defending the Monroe Doctrine) out of the American Civil War. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Puebla May 5 1862
While these days US, UK, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, GCC etc. supply and infiltrate forces to start and keep the insurrection in Syria going and the media propagandists call it a civil war!
*I am not sure, France had a large faction which was anti slavery as did Great Britain. The benefit of a new colonial empire over Mexico and a canal was a stretch for France in their new empire.
Mystery of life.
How does this thing have a job?

Remember!
This date in 1970 four university students were killed in an Ohio National Guard “riot”, a mistake on Kent State University campus.
I do not remember it as any different than the police “riots in Chicago during the democratic convention. Others see differently.
Like all things about Vietnam Kent State was a senseless tragedy. six students including the Jackson event along with 58000 US service men and women!
If you were aware at that time you remember!
