Ireland, James Lawless “It has become a cold place for free thinkers and talented researchers. We all know how that will grind advanced research to a halt. And that is nothing in the face of the human suffering", “bring to mind book burnings of old” - James Joyce Experience

“Creative Mythology is Volume IV of the comparative mythologist Joseph Campbell’s The Masks of God. The book concerns “creative mythology”, Campbell’s term for the efforts by an individual to communicate his experience through signs, an attempt that can become “living myth”.”
"Campbell writes that in “creative mythology”, “the individual has had an experience of his own - of order, horror, beauty, or even mere exhilaration-which he seeks to communicate through signs; and if his realization has been of a certain depth and import, his communication will have the force and value of living myth-for those, that is to say, who receive and respond to it of themselves, with recognition, uncoerced.” Campbell gives as examples Thomas Mann and James Joyce.”
May 13, 2025 Ireland news about United States of America observations and strategy
Ireland is to launch a scheme to poach academics and university lecturers from overseas on the basis that the Trump administration has made the US “a cold place for free thinkers and talented researchers”.
The higher education minister, James Lawless, will on Tuesday seek cabinet approval for a “global talent initiative” to entice top international academics, including those seeking to leave the US or deterred from working there.
This has been my experience, driven by Twitter / Elon Musk X media platform, Rupert Murdoch’s media systems (inclusive of Fox News HDTV), anonymous no-identity anti-understanding anti-comprehension values adopted by Donald Trump on Reddit / Bluesky / etc. People in USA are entirely unable to resist the !TotalMockery@lemm.ee “Total Mockery”, all-inclusive mass dehumanization and mocking behaviors of Donald Trump White House since year 2013. People on social machines and in social gatherings have been absolutely conditioned to attack free-thinking and non-conformity to the “Total Mockery” behaviors / Twitter-thinking values.
Perceptions of the US as a haven for research had changed in recent months, the minister said. “It has become a cold place for free thinkers and talented researchers. We all know how that will grind advanced research to a halt. And that is nothing in the face of the human suffering of targeted student arrests and deportations”. Reports of library culls “bring to mind book burnings of old”, he said.
It’s good to hear truth. Here in USA on social machine systems, people only flock to mockery, insulting, shit-talk, Twitter-values / Tweeting-thinking.
I hope Ireland can rescue Americans, get people to “Wake Up” to what is going on!
