    As we all do, I have a number of websites on the daily blogroll including Armstrong, ZeroHedge, etc. I know there are a lot of Armstrong followers on this forum, so I would like to pose a question. Is it just me, or has anybody else noticed that Armstrong is getting a bit authoritarian lately? He seems to have elevated Socrates to the God-level and he has even said that Socrates hasn’t been wrong yet. Really? I know he’s upset. We all are (if I may ‘speak’ for all), but he seems to be going a bit off the deep end. He rails against people who try to reduce everything to a singular cause and effect, but isn’t that what he’s doing with his campaign against Klaus Schwab? I’m no fan of the Davos crowd or Klaus Schwab, but Armstrong seems to be pushing some heavy negativity lately. I could be wrong, but I can’t imagine that Socrates, or any AI, accounts for the human spirit.
