Not American, but at least a few do. And they're exporting it. My old English teacher back when I lived in the Dominican Republic was an American missionary who taught to fund her religious activities. Guess what beliefs about science and politics she was spreading along with her beliefs about baptism of the spirit?

Life is like a fairy tale. Unfortunately it was written by Germans.

Would, say, an actor playing a Nazi officer in a movie be protected from this?

Please excuse the censorship, I don't think the gamer word is allowed on this instance.

A lot of people on the left seem to hold The Authoritarian Personality by Adorno et al. and The Mass Psychology of Fascism by Reich in very high regard.

These are very old books. The Adorno book has been criticised for methodological reasons. The Reich book is very rooted in Freudian psychoanalysis. Yet they still seem to be widely read and discussed.

I am not a psychologist. Can psychologists please tell me if these works are still considered to be useful and supported by the available evidence? I feel awfully skeptical when someone backs their point up by citing them and I want to know whether I should unclench my arse.

Thank you :)

I earn a little spare cash as an English tutor over the Internet. My student is a little girl in Russia. During today's lesson she asked me if YouTube isn't working my country either. She said that people are trying to make RuTube to replace it.

I can't explain to her why it doesn't work for her but works for me. Either I must lie or break the law.

Kids are naive and innocent. It breaks the heart.
