#1 But no law can address the absence of meaning and purpose that many white men appear to feel, which they might be able to gain through social connection to people who never expected to have the economic security and social power that white men once enjoyed.

"The government cannot give you anything, that it has not already taken away from someone else."

~ Churchill (a paraphrase, I believe)

#2 Scientific American is guilty of committing F.U.D. With this article.

#4 This is my rifle

This is my gun

One is for killing

The others for fun

So until this war is over

Or until your time is done

This is your rifle and this one is your gun

#6 Amen, Joe. SA was an interesting and informative magazine until it was taken over for SJW activist propaganda and climate change agitprop - about 35 years ago

#9 I canceled my subscription to Scientific American long ago. If I want political crap, I can watch ESPN.

Just like child molesters who like to hide wearing the frock, political propagandist can't resist the cover of science.

#10 Well, when the Hurricane warnings are issued, people stock up on key provisions. When people see a civil war coming, they just acquire the appropriate materials to carry them over as well.

#11 Off the pile (didn't wanna diss SH in hora ultima, like)...

"Let's pause for a moment of science:
In whom shall we place our reliance?
Who'll fill the black hole
That He's left in our soul,
And never be lenient
With facts inconvenient?
Who'll shepherd nerds' words towards compliance,
And bully deniers to silence?"

#12 As a teenager I remember going to the stacks and reading the thick older Scientific American issues. Many (most...) of the articles were beyond me but it was fascinating to see science in all its forms...
A decade ago on a newstand I saw the current thin, slick paper version. *Hmmpf* Pop-Sci pablum about crashing black holes and an essay about Global Warming. Tragic.

#13 I canceled in the early 1980s when a British Lord of the Sky Is Falling persuasion bought Scientific American. He should have replaced American with British and added Pseudo- in front of "Scientific".

#14 I once was told by a reviewer that one cannot use a SciAm article as a source in professional publication.

#15 Yes. Of course racism....
Couldn't be anything else.

#16 Well, I'm not stockpiling, I already have too many (my definition, not the anti-gun folks) But with the MSM suggesting to non-whites that they may be allowed to do what they will with me with no repercussions, well, I guess too much is not enough...
