Please don't introduce inflammatory language like this unnecessarily into a thread. It's quite off-topic for the submission.
Edited to expand and clarify.
- mindcrime 10y agoThat's not "inflammatory language", it's just a well known fact.

- noir_lord 10y agohttp://www.rense.com/general37/char.htm http://www.rense.com/general37/char.htm Nothing inflammatory about pointing out something a respected academic said. If you think its inflammatory read the full list and compare it to contemporary democratic states.

I can't find him so I can't say for certain he's not a doctor but I don't think he is. Also your link is from rense (a white supremacist/conspiracy site), it doesn't seem to have been the origin(originally from a humanist magazine) and may have been republished without consent but it does undercut your point.
- pjc50 10y agoIsn't that list borrowed from Umberto Eco? It's certainly a very weird site to link to.
- noir_lord 10y agoYeah I think I saw the list elsewhere the first time and my google-fu failed, I'd swap the link but I'm outside the edit window, which is irritating as always.
- ionised 10y agoIt's not inflammatory if it is demonstrably true.
