America loves a winner!


If pop culture and science can lie to you about this, what else are they lying about ?

Here’s a news item that will carry the most weight for readers old enough to remember the Seventies: “Sybil” was a total fraud.

The “Sybil” story exploded into the public eye through a massive bestseller, good for almost seven million copies. It was serialized in newspapers, and made into an award-winning TV miniseries with Sally Field and Joanne Woodward. If you were a kid in the early 70s, this was the book everybody’s mom had on her nightstand. I recall being especially disturbed by one of the paperback covers as a child, because I thought it literally depicted the events of the book, and I thought having your head sliced into sixteen pieces would be very painful.

Supply-side economics and "trickle down". They're definitely lying about that.

No, those work just fine. But keep on ignoring reality.

Hey, hey, hey, don't be mean. We don't have to be mean, because, remember, no matter where you go, there you are.
