Points to Ponder
A quick hit of what I’m thinking about this morning
A Note From Ron:
This is probably going to be an ongoing feature of the Dubious Wisdom blog . . . for those days when I have some sort of weirdness pop into my head but don’t feel like writing a whole column about it.
As always . . . thoughts and comments are welcome

I have a theory that the internet/social media has actually turned people into insufferable jackasses because they can say what they want without consequences. Even if their views are wildly unpopular, deviant, or insane, they can still find a like-minded forum that will function as a support group. This - combined with getting rewarded for posting outlandish videos of bad behavior, saying terrible things, and supporting the most bizarre tenets of the woke agenda - has raced us to the lowest acceptable common denominators of society.
If there was no internet, Kim Kardashian would work at McDonalds.
Good Morning Ron,
I received a subscription to Missouri Life for Xmas last year where I read a few of your columns…. I liked them and was disappointed to learn you’d no longer be writing it, but happy to see you have this blog/post/website.
Agree with you about SM. People say things they’d never have the guts to say to someone’s face. It’s ruined many friendships and I believe is largely responsible for the political divide in this country.
Thanks for sharing your thought/columns here.
