The "shop owner," who is not identified, "couldn’t positively identify the customer as Hunter Biden"
1. I'm going to go through a few issues with the NY Post article on Biden, which I won't link to, but you will probably see on Twitter today.
Follow along if interested.
The "shop owner," who is not identified, "couldn’t positively identify the customer as Hunter Biden"
This makes no sense. You drop off an expensive Mac laptop at a repair shop and don't leave your name or contact information?
So why would the shop owner produce a receipt for Hunter Biden if he didn't know the ID of the customer?
But the grand jury subpoena shown does not connect the laptop to Hunter Biden.
Mmmmhmmmm
Both Giuliani and Bannon are regular sources of disinformation
Supposedly one "email" recovered on the laptop "proves" that Hunter once introduced a Bursima exec to his father.
The New York Post says its significant because Biden then called for the ouster of the Ukrainian prosecutor investigating Bursima.
FALSE
The prosecutor was not investigating Bursima
Replacing the corrupt prosecutor brought more scrutiny on Bursima, not less
Don't be fooled by that.

I just finished Eric Adler's The Battle of the Classics, and wanted to say something about Joel Christiansen's review linked below. I am not sure what motivates the review (I speculate a bit below), but it gives a very misleading impression of the book. 1/x
The meat of the criticism is that the history Adler gives is insufficiently critical. Adler describes a few figures who had a great influence on how the modern US university was formed. It's certainly critical: it focuses on the social Darwinism of these figures. 2/x
Other insinuations and suggestions in the review seem wildly off the mark, distorted, or inappropriate-- for example, that the book is clickbaity (it is scholarly) or conservative (hardly) or connected to the events at the Capitol (give me a break). 3/x
The core question: in what sense is classics inherently racist? Classics is old. On Adler's account, it begins in ancient Rome and is revived in the Renaissance. Slavery (Christiansen's primary concern) is also very old. Let's say classics is an education for slaveowners. 4/x
It's worth remembering that literacy itself is elite throughout most of this history. Literacy is, then, also the education of slaveowners. We can honor oral and musical traditions without denying that literacy is, generally, good. 5/x
As someone\u2019s who\u2019s read the book, this review strikes me as tremendously unfair. It mostly faults Adler for not writing the book the reviewer wishes he had! https://t.co/pqpt5Ziivj
