The mental derangement of these people
continues.
I'll have more to say on my libertarian list on Monday.
Evidently someone on Twitter indignantly observed that I released an episode of the Tom Woods Show called "The Discrimination Myth" the day after the mosque shootings in New Zealand.
How insensitive!
(Yes, folks, someone really said this.)
Of course, I line up my episodes in advance, particularly before I go out of town, as I did this week (I'm still in New York as I write this, as is evident from a glance at my Facebook profile page). So what episode comes out when is not connected to events of the day. It's all automated and pre-numbered in advance. I recorded that episode in Florida, and I'm in New York now.
But even if that weren't the case, I wouldn't have changed a thing. What on Earth does my episode have to do with mosque shootings?
All it does is pretty much recap the Thomas Sowell/Walter Williams arguments about discrimination and how much it accounts for disparate outcomes. (Spoiler: not much.)
The gender pay gap, for instance, has nothing to do with "discrimination." Do I need to wait a week after a shooting to point this out? What do shooting or violence have to do with any of this?
Left-libertarians generally don't dare criticize Sowell, since they know we all love him, and his work is top notch.
But if you're white and you repeat Sowell's arguments? Why, you're insensitive to mosque shootings!
What we actually said in the episode is that official state policy has far more systematic and detrimental effects on minorities than private discrimination does.
Whoa! How insensitive!
You are not supposed to say that!
(Who knows why, but evidently you're not!)
These people really are hopeless. Thank goodness there are so few of them.
Now, the point:
Even from something as hideous and deranged as this, I will wind up ahead.
My audience will be larger and more loyal, and yes, I will monetize this attack.
Isn't that the most delicious revenge?
Here again is why an email list is such an indispensable asset, and why you want to start building yours yesterday -- no matter what niche you're in, no matter what kind of business (if any) you have.
I'll teach you how, and then (and here's the key) I'll teach you how to use it like a master.
But the Tom Woods Email Domination Program closes down tomorrow.
(Yes, I just used this idiot's attack to promote my product. See how glorious this is?)
Pick it up before it's gone:
