NPR’s Deft Interview of a Totalitarian Liar

January 12, 2022 | FlaglerLive | 16 Comments

trump NPR interview

Donald Trump has an iron grip on his cultish party, so it’d be a dereliction of duty to ignore him – and the existential threat he represents. But by indulging him in an interview, does that not give him more oxygen? Steve Inskeep at NPR found a way Monday to thread the needle, argues Dick Polman.

Record Quit Rates in the Job Market? Don’t Be So Sure.

The so-called Great Resignation was one of the top stories of 2021 as “record” numbers of workers reportedly quit their jobs. The problem is the data only goes back a little over two decades, which means it’s certainly possible that the rate could have been higher at several points in the past.

How Social Media Can Crush Your Self-Esteem

January 10, 2022 | FlaglerLive | Leave a Comment

social media compulsion

Comparing ourselves on social media to people who are worse off than we are makes us feel better. Comparing ourselves to people who are doing better than us, however, makes us feel inferior or inadequate instead. The social media platform we choose also affects our morale, as do crisis situations like the Covid-19 pandemic.

Sidney Poitiers’ Biggest Role: Civil Rights

January 9, 2022 | FlaglerLive | 4 Comments

Before the 1950s, Black movie characters generally reflected racist stereotypes such as lazy servants and beefy mammies. Then came Poitier, the only Black man to consistently win leading roles in major films from the late 1950s through the late 1960s. Like Martin Luther King Jr., Poitier projected ideals of respectability and integrity. He attracted not only the loyalty of African Americans, but also the goodwill of white liberals.

Why We Are Appealing Flagler Court’s Decision Clearing the Way for Development of The Gardens on John Anderson

John Tanner, the lawyer representing Preserve Flagler Beach and Bulow Creek, the organization opposing the 335-home Gardens development on John Anderson Highway, explains why the organization appealed a circuit judge’s decision clearing the way for the development. The appeal is pending at the Fifth District Court of Appeal.

On Jan. 18, 2022, the Supreme Court will hear oral arguments in Shurtleff v. Boston. The case addresses whether the city violated the First Amendment by denying a request to temporarily raise the Christian flag on a flagpole outside City Hall, where Boston has temporarily displayed many secular organizations’ flags.

See the Truth, America, Biden Urges as he Blasts Trump’s ‘Dagger at the Throat of Democracy’

January 6, 2022 | FlaglerLive | 18 Comments

President Biden delivering his speech today from the Capitol, in a screen capture from the video feed.

Biden’s speech of Jan. 6, 2022, is of interest not only because of the circumstances that led to its being necessary, but also because of the visual language it employed. The speech expressed a powerful faith in the plain truth. It asked Americans to believe their own eyes. That reflects a long philosophical tradition in Western culture equating sight or light with the truth.

Why Omicron Transmission in Triple-Vaxxed Should Not Alarm You

On the surface, it appeared that the vaccines were not working. But this depends on how vaccine protection is defined. So far, the vaccines have proven to be very good at preventing severe disease. This protection is just as important, if not more so, as they keep the vast majority of infected people out of hospital and from dying.

Not All Polarization Is Bad, But the US Could Be in Trouble

For the first time, the United States has been classified as a “backsliding democracy” in a global assessment of democratic societies by the International Institute for Democracy and Electoral Assistance, an intergovernmental research group. One key reason the report cites is the continuing popularity among Republicans of false allegations of widespread voter fraud in the 2020 presidential election.

Sore Loser Effect: Rejecting Election Results Drives Terrorism and Hobbles Democracy

January 3, 2022 | FlaglerLive | 17 Comments

proud boys insurrection

Acceptance of electoral defeat, something political scientists call “loser’s consent,” is essential for stability and order in democracies. It’s fragile. When it is broken–when losing politicians in democracies refuse to accept election results–citizens begin to see terrorism as more acceptable and domestic terrorism increases.

Could Omicron Be the Last Variant of Concern?

January 2, 2022 | FlaglerLive | 1 Comment

Omicron may not be the final variant, but it may be the final variant of concern. If we are lucky, and the course of this pandemic is hard to predict, Covid will probably become an endemic virus that slowly mutates over time. The disease might very likely be mild as some past exposure creates immunity that reduces the likelihood of hospitalisation and death.

Americanisms: Sinclair Lewis’s Main Street and Babbitt

January 2, 2022 | Pierre Tristam | 1 Comment

Sinclair Lewis's "Main Street" and "Babbitt" appeared in 1920 and 1922 to immense acclaim. The Library of America reissued the two novels in one volume in 1993, and re-issued three more a few years later.

Today we read the Sinclair Lewis of “Main Street,” “Babbitt,” “Elmer Gantry” and “It Can’t Happen Here” not for literary value but the way Margaret Mead studied the Balinese character–for ethnographic insights. Lewis’s novels are a window into an America not nearly as dated as his reputation. 

A Disastrous 2021: Half the Country Is Too Dry, Half Is Too Wet

In the U.S. alone, damage from the biggest climate and weather disasters is expected to total well over US$100 billion in 2021. Many of these extreme weather events have been linked to human-caused climate change, and they offer a glimpse of what to expect in a rapidly warming world.

Eulogy for Nature: Edward Abbey’s Desert Solitaire

January 1, 2022 | Pierre Tristam | 4 Comments

Edward Abbey, who died in 1989, published Desert Solitaire in 1968.

Edward Abbey’s “Desert Solitaire,” published in January 1968, worthy of any top-100 list of the best books of the last hundred years and an essential read–and re-read-today, is a meditation, a polemic, a manifesto, a provocation, a valentine and an elegy to the red desert and to American wilderness.

Time to Treat Environmental Crime as a Crime Against Humanity

Environmental crime is still regarded a “white collar crime,” subject mostly to civil charges and accompanied by fines, when the reality on the state of the planet mandates that environmental destruction be conceptualized as a crime against humanity.

Philip Roth’s “Nemesis” is the story of an unsuspecting Everyman who becomes a polio superspreader and turns on his fiancee, God and life. Written in 2010, the novel can be read in the age of the coronavirus as a study in grief and loss and the limits of personal, or divine, responsibility.

Trump Troll Chronicles: Bob Woodward’s Peril

December 30, 2021 | FlaglerLive | 2 Comments

"Peril" is the third of Bob Woodward's books on the Trump Administration, written with Robert Costa. It was published in September.

Bob Woodward’s and Robert Costa’s “Peril,” third in the trilogy of Woodward’s books on the Trump administration, isn’t history. It’s most revealing in what it does not say. It’s tragicomedy. It’s a chronicle of trash foretold. And it’s prediction. The worst is ahead. 

Crusaders: Bob Woodward’s Bush at War

December 30, 2021 | FlaglerLive | Leave a Comment

Simon & Schuster published Bob Woodward's Bush at War in November 2002.

Even by Woodward’s standards, this is much less a journalist’s book than a White House manifesto, a managed reconstruction of recent events not for the sake of telling the story of those events, but as a projection of events to come. What B-52s do to soften up enemy ground ahead of a military invasion, Bush At War is doing to soften up Bush’s coming war on Iraq and possibly more.

Call DCF: Marieke Lucas Rijneveld’s The Discomfort of Evening

December 29, 2021 | FlaglerLive | Leave a Comment

Marieke Lucas Rijneveld's "The Discomfort of Evening" was published in the Netherlands

Marieke Lucas Rijneveld, who now goes by the pronouns they/them, won the International Booker Prize for “The Discomfort of Evening,” an autobiographical novel about a 10-year-old girl who thinks she willed the death of her brother, and who watches her family and her bearings collapse after his death. The book caused a controversy due to themes of adolescent sexuality and animal torture.

Liberal Flagellant: George Packer’s Last Best Hope

December 28, 2021 | FlaglerLive | 3 Comments

George Packer isn;t thrilled about living in any of the four Americas he describes and deconstructs in Last Best Hope, his latest book, published by Farrar, Straus and Giroux in June.

George Packer’s “The Last best Hope,” published in June, attempts to explain how the United States devolved into the furies of Donald Trump’s last year–the pandemic, the BLM marches, the Jan. 6 insurrection–by diagnosing four separate Americas that no longer communicate. It’s a dour, guilt-ridden book by a liberal looking for penance in all the wrong places.

Why E.O. Wilson Was One of the Greatest Minds of the Last 100 Years

e.o. wilson

Each of Edward O. Wilson’s seminal contributions fundamentally changed the way scientists approached these disciplines, and explained why E.O. – as he was fondly known – was an academic god for many young scientists. This astonishing record of achievement may have been due to his phenomenal ability to piece together new ideas using information garnered from disparate fields of study.

A Bit Less Normal: Sally Rooney’s Beautiful World, Where Are You

December 27, 2021 | FlaglerLive | Leave a Comment

Sally Rooney's "Beautiful World, Where Are You," published in September by Farrar, Straus and Giroux, is the Irish writer's third novel.

The young, argumentative and Irish Sally Rooney is among the rising lights of English-language literature. She’s giving the novel of ideas a boost. The impulse her works command reminds me of the old E.F. Hutton commercials: “When EF Hutton talks, people listen.” Her third novel, “Beautiful World, Where Are You,” is her most ambitious and least accomplished.

Gov. DeSantis Seems Hellbent on Taking Us Back to the ’60s — the 1860s

Gov. Ron DeSantis likes to call this the “Free State of Florida.” If he hasn’t yet wrapped himself in the Tenth Amendment or threatened secession, it’s only because he’s been too busy playing soldiers, organizing his private battalion, rewriting the past, and trying to destroy democracy.

Our Thirty Years’ War: Schlesinger’s The Disuniting of America

December 26, 2021 | Pierre Tristam | 4 Comments

Arthur SAchlesinger Jr. published

What historian Arthur Schlesinger had detected in 1992 in a few trends is now orthodoxy–from both sides, neither for the better. The “ethnic rage” of diversity-preaching liberals and the fundamentalist, doctrinaire “monoculturalism” of conservatives has the country in a state of paralysis. Schlesinger wanted a renewed melting pot. But that’s not the solution.

The Loneliness of a Dictator: Garcia-Marquez’s Autumn of the Patriarch

Autumn of the Patriarch is a study in power unbound, unscrupulous, re-imagined rather than invented. History gave Garcia-Marquez too much material to need invention. Approaching 50 years since the novel published, it has recently come to feel more contemporary again.

Patriotism Recovered: Richard Rorty’s Achieving Our Country

“Achieving Our Country” is an energizing manifesto, a reminder that we are not as good as we think we are, and, atrocious as we can be,  not nearly as bad, either. We are merely unachieved. With a little less despair, a little more affection, even–heaven forbid–a bit of patriotism, however defined but equally respected we can achieve more.

Build back bitter: Sen. Joe Manchin, the West Virginia DEmocrat. (Senate Democrats)

What really matters is how much the bill would spend in excess of any taxes raised to pay for the program. The higher taxes on the wealthy and corporations that the House version of the bill calls for would reduce economic activity – by taking money out of the economy – offsetting some of the impact of the spending that would stimulate it.

Shouldn’t the holiday season simply be about family, friends and food? And wouldn’t everyone just be better off spending their own money on things they know they want? Gift exchanges may seem wasteful and impractical. But as social scientific research reveals, the costs and benefits of gift-giving aren’t what they seem.

Grace from the Crime of Punishment

Under the appealing but misguided credo of victims’ rights, prosecutors reach plea deals giving disproportionate weight to what the victim’s family wants. The defendant can end up either with a savior, as Joey Renn did this week in Flagler, or, more often, a gang of rage. A person’s fate should never depend on a dice throw between grace and vigilantism.

Bans on employees using cellphones are relatively common in workplaces such as factories, farms and fast-food chains.

But different situations have indicated the necessity for workers to have access to their phones, for safety’s sake.

You’ve probably heard it before: drinking coffee is good for your health. Studies have shown that drinking a moderate amount of coffee is associated with many health benefits, including a lower risk of developing type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular disease. But while these associations have been demonstrated many times, they don’t actually prove that coffee reduces disease risk. In fact, proving that coffee is good for your health is complicated.

The White Flight Behind Native Americans’ 87% Population Growth

Birth rates among Native Americans don’t explain the massive rise in numbers. And there certainly is no evidence of an influx of Native American expatriates returning to the U.S. Instead, individuals who previously identified as white are now claiming to be Native American. This growing movement has been captured by terms like “pretendian” and “wannabe.”
