    In the United States, about 40,000 people were lobotomized, with the procedure reaching its peak of popularity in 1949. Crazy how there can fads for radical surgical procedures that we later view as unneeded and harmful.

    Listened to Lex Fridman interviewing John Mearsheimer. The chief thing it convinced me of is that Fridman is a dimwit. Constantly repeating platitudes. Highly brainwormed.

    Winston Churchill's chief strategic goal was the defense of the British Empire. If one looks at the British Empire in 1910, when Churchill was 36, and compares it to the UK at the time of his death in 1965, it is unambiguously clear that he failed in this goal.
