Fully resonate with all of that and will listen to the vid a little later this evening.
I just wanted to add that quite a number of long time RI members more or less disgraced themselves over the last three years. Not just for being arseholes, we all do that, some, like me, do that more than others. Instead I mean the indelible intellectual dishonesty they have displayed while continuing to lecture us on science, or anything else. These fellows tacitly and overtly accused other members of every kind of logical or ethical stain. Some have apologised in a round about way, by at least belatedly recognising some of the fact of what has occurred, though two or three continue on blithely as though nothing has happened (or that they weren't spectacularly wrong about almost everything) while belittling those who were not wrong - as little more than oafish and biggoted right wing homophobic dick swinging idiots. You all know exactly who you are.
Thing is, I sympathise with every one of them. I recognise the titanic, systemic, corruption they and I are up against. I recognise the daunting amount of time, effort and ultimately money which has been thrown at the problem of rendering me and them into ineffective, submissive, morons, thoroughly convinced of our own superiority.
Much love to you Grizzly, you've a big heart, and it shows.
And while we spoke of many things, fools and kings
This he said to me
"The greatest thing
You'll ever learn
Is just to love
And be loved
In return"
