Speaking of ... > There’s no source mentioned and no link to substantiate this claim .. when someone mixes up two things, saying for example "People previously said the UK rape gangs were debunked claims against minorities and we now know that to be false and that hundreds of thousands of poor girls were assaulted", the hammer on my bullshit meter starts to slam the right-hand bell. The implication here is that "hundreds of thousands of poor girls" were raped by gangs in the UK, according to studies [1], that figure was actually ... 706 in the latest figures that I could find. Being absolutely clear, that is 706 too many, but it's not "hundreds of thousands". The conflation is that half a million or so cases of sexual assault are made against minors on a yearly basis, but the bar for that is a lot lower than "rape gang". Also, to be clear, that's half a million too many. The good news here is that investigations into police and governmental policy have been made, 12 recommendations were produced, and all have been accepted by the government. Hopefully this can help matters, and these poor kids (of both sexes) in the future.

If you believe that sexuality is innate, like skin colour, then discriminating against someone's sexuality is akin to being racist. Just saying. > It’s also fairly obvious when one watches An Inconvenient Truth that global warning concerns were amplified beyond what actually happened in the next two decades Uh huh. The Y2K problem was massively mitigated by a huge effort to fix it, and the success of that effort meant there wasn't much that went wrong on the actual day. Global warming has had a lot less effort (though still substantial), the ozone hole has been pretty much closed, but the world is still on a pretty terrible path. It's almost as if people can't see the ever-increasing heat in Summer, and "polar vortexes" in Winter as the evidence that's as plain as the nose on your face. > Likewise it’s more likely that the novel coronavirus came from the novel coronavirus lab than a wet market I tend to agree with that.
