We should know how to utilize a highly practical, effective, efficient, and
universal non-voice means of communication which doesn't require any
computerized hardware to encode/decode the messages, and makes the
best possible use of the least possible power. This mode is, of course,
Morse/CW. It should be learned at progressive levels of 5, 13, and 20 WPM
for an entry level, intermediate, and full-privilege licenses, respectively.

You can plug a keyboard directly into a Patcomm HF transceiver. Cool

And Kenwood makes a vhf/uhf dual bander that lets you send text w/o a
'puter.

Those who disagree are dumbed-down whiners whose opinions are invalid.

Not necessarily. No more dumb than some code elitists.

Anyone who receives a license without having passed the 3-level Morse code
proficiency learning requirement is incapable of providing a true emergency
backup communications service to the public, and therefore is not of any
value to the ARS.

73 de Larry, K3LT

If that's true, then it's time to fire 99.999% of the 911 operators.
But yet, they manage to provide emergency communications daily w/o any
knowledge of Morse or Farnsworth code whatsoever.

So its probably not true.

Nice troll, Larry tRoll.
