I think these intellectuals would happily accept the proxy of disease as evidence substantiating the charge, regardless of the amount of research contradicting their accusations of European genocide.

“I exist, therefore I am to blame.”

Or something. Maybe “you exist, therefore you are to blame”, or “your ancestors existed, therefore you are to blame”? I guess I’m not intellectual enough to keep up.

The ability to keep moving the goalposts of intellectual honesty seems to be a hallmark of leftists, whether ‘intellectual’ or not.

There’s got to be meds for that.
