DarkSteven -> Proof that US universities are superior to French ones. (7/31/2011 5:46:17 AM)
http://globalpublicsquare.blogs.cnn.com/2011/07/29/are-the-smurfs-crypto-fascists/?hpt=hp_bn2 Note that not only did some French university decide that this tripe was worth funding and publishing, but Worldcrunch decided that it was worth translating. Evidently the real world isn't worth dealing with, so some idiot professor decided to deeply analyze children's cartoons. This one's arguably better than claiming Tinky Winky is gay. Note the claim that the Smurfs are anti-Semitic. Without any Jews in the show. If an anti-Semite falls in a forest without any Jews present, does he still make a sound?

No Jewish smurfs ? Now I've heard everything. You think maybe some ergot got into the grain again over there ? T^T

Steven: I've seen similar stuff from some Humanities faculty in the States too, so I wouldn't take that as proof. Termy: I think Gargamel is supposed to be an anti-semitic Jewish caricature in the theory.

Just when you think people can't get any dumber....

I find the Smurfs to be an ideal society where there is one Alpha Domme Smurfette and a bunch of shirtless men vying for her attention. ;-) On the note about French Universities vs American ones, you know Steven, there are good and bad universities in each country. You should see some of the bonehead research coming out of the states, out of anywhere really.

Yeah, Trafficant mentioned something about $300,000 or so for studying the mating habits of the tse tse fly. He mentioned a few other things, which is what pissed "them" off. But true bonehed research is not good here. If it was the ones with more bones in their head may be discriminated aginst, and the market can't take that. But who funds these things ? Senators who wonder if it would be cheaper to take a bus to Hawaii, or those who think their credit card is actually a visa ? I bet some of them think traveling abroad means getting layed in the back of a moving limosine. And of course they fund "their kind". Which is it this month ? Butter or margarine ? Yup, the FDA is about the worst, and we know they do it on purpose. Bonehead research, hmmmm, sounds like it should be a government department. You know universities are hurting for money. Case used to have a slush fund approaching a half a billion, but they got a new director who took care of that. So now with less money the are threatening to privatise some building services. Of course the private firms that would take over have no interest in profit. Boneheads, yes, the Department Of Boneheads. If the right representative proposes it, they will fund it. T^T

Well some research is funded by government and some is funded privately. At times, it's a mixture of both. If tax payers got involved properly, they'd have a say in what government funded, via their vote.

"If tax payers got involved properly, they'd have a say in what government funded, via their vote. " Oh please tell us how. T^T
