Earthquake updates, nobody cares about it. It's not controversial. Suppose there's a bot that responds to every comment with positive sentiment about ivermectin with "You are not a horse" with a link to WHO guidelines. W

Temperature data manipulation by NOAA goes far beyond what people might imagine. They cool the past and warm the present by fabricating data for stations using a model that assumes the CO2 hypothesis. https://www.youtube.com&#x2F

> how to convince people on the flight to chill out My sense is that there is nothing they could say. Hijack a plane, a bunch of men are going to attack you. That's it.

It's a fortunate thing that consumers of electricity pay for it individually. That way, it's not really a matter of public concern. Similar to how you don't have to worry about providing some justification for your habit of b

Not joking -- I think it may be all of those. See e.g. the work of Ivor Cummins, books like "Eat Rich, Live Long".

Hmm, but isn't it the beginning of wisdom? Will a person be motivated to cultivate themselves to be good if they really have no inkling about their capacity to do evil and harm?

Well, I grant it's hard to quantify. It was recently reported that Fox had more viewers than CNN and MSNBC combined, but that's TV. On the internet, it's a very different story. If you block left-leaning news outlets on Apple

Well, my point is that if we're going to make people pay for things they don't like because we know better than they do what's good for them, let's try to do that equally. That's not happening on, say, the BBC, wher

Well, they're supposed to exist in the public interest, but it seems like it could be true that they're vehemently opposed by at least half of the populations they're supposed to be serving.

Let's say I grant you this generalization (it seems like it could be true to me). Then it's not really the NYT vs Fox, is it? Doesn't sheer quantity matter? What fraction of the media (say, the stuff you're likely to see

This is inappropriate use of the term "brainwashing". Brainwashing is accomplished by endless repetition and blocking competing information, so it'd be much more appropriate to call what CNBC and the rest of the MSM does &quo

Do people from elsewhere continue to want to immigrate to the US? Do you find yourself wanting to immigrate elsewhere?

I think you're probably right, but you chose some strange examples. I would have said Canada, New Zealand, Australia, UK, Italy, France. US authoritarianism is largely limited to blue states. Edit: to put a finer point on it, Canada, N

From the moment some company put that Plaid process in front of me, I was horrified. I could hardly believe it existed. If somebody had wanted me to work on such a thing as a programmer, I would have refused. The existence and success of Pl

To me it sounds like you'd be happier at a much smaller company. Same as me. I doubt I could work anywhere that had more than 15 or so employees. When a company gets too big, it gets bogged down in procedures and protocols. It gets an

This is good stuff, but it's not new. Meanness is ill will, a mental poison that will inevitably cause a person to harm others, but the very first victim is holder of the ill will. I think this was probably very well known even at the

Well, suppose climate change wasn't thought to be anthropogenic, but it was happening the same way, i.e., warming up from being about the coldest it ever gets. So, it's not humans' fault, but it's inconvenient for humans

Well, hang on. Which was the correct climate? At various times, the planet has apparently completely encased itself in ice and then thawed itself out. According to the climate historian Scotese, the average temperature has varied between 10

Sometimes it's fun to pretend that the real purpose of all the anti-nuclear talk is to gradually create a situation where humanity cannot continue using electricity the way it has been, to literally disempower humanity and cause people

I'm sorry, I think you have it exactly backward. The vaccines are not well-tested. Ivermectin, on the other hand, has been used safely in humans for about 40 years. Dr. Varon, developer of the MATH+ protocol, attributes his much high
