Retweets are not endorsements, but might be, you never know. I tend to respond to bad tweets with worse tweets, so if I respond to you, I apologize.

I am never surprised when a highly opinionated person refuses to debate. It is axiomatic that the certainty of their opinion is inverse to its veracity.
Replying to @PeterHotez
Not easy to respond when those 3 gang up and tag team. Wish I could be more eloquent and clever when the moment demands, but there you are..

Read our interview with Harvard prof & AFA founding member Steven Pinker @sapinker: "By making the expression of opinions illegal, you cripple the process by which we can understand our world and therefore put a brake on the possibility of human progress." academicfreedom.org/our-best…

In 1949 Joseph Campbell presented something astonishing: from the beginning of time up to the present—humans have craved and built the same story. My thesis is—it is the structured the HumanOS and the lens through which everything passes. At this moment we are on this journey.

Twitter is like a large café, well, almost. You can sit at a table & listen to Albert Einstein, Max Planck & Paul Dirac trying to have a conversation while being constantly interrupted by two loud truck drivers in MAGA hats.

My name is not Katelyn Boo-urns, my name is Katelyn Burns but I can’t change my display name back from my stupid Halloween meme name because the most fragile man on the planet bought this site.

Happy July 4th, the birth of the freest & most transparent country in history, perceived to be imperfect because of its very transparency.
This is Russian Propaganda; exactly 100% backwards. Idiots believe this. In 1984, there was no web; governments had total control of information. In 2022 things are more transparent, so we see imperfections. THE TRANSPARENCY EFFECT: the more things improve the worse they look.

Yet another version of the edge-pixel motion illusion. Even after figuring it out I'm amazed at how compelling it is.

Lotta folks criticizing me for not understanding nationalism. Meh. I think they don't follow the "nationalist" movement in the U.S. very closely. So let me explain my point. 1/
Amazing how so many of the self-proclaimed American nationalists talk such a big game about the importance of nationalism, the morality of nationalism, the necessity of nationalism, just don't care very much when an imperial power tries to erase a nation.

I am devastated and shocked to hear about the news of my peer, Peng Shuai. I hope she is safe and found as soon as possible. This must be investigated and we must not stay silent. Sending love to her and her family during this incredibly difficult time. #whereispengshuai

He's a sick dude

How German virologist Alexander Kekulé describes his reaction to the unearthing of the (unfunded!) grant application by EcoHealth/WIV. (Also note he later points out why/how the way forward is the same: better outbreak surveillance and lab oversight). n-tv.de/panorama/Kekule-sieh…

🧵THREAD🧵 The NIH announced a bombshell: despite what Dr. Fauci said under oath, US taxpayers paid for gain-of-function research in Wuhan. I hope that outlets will correct the record from when they assured us this wasn’t happening. If they’ve forgotten, I’ve got screenshots⤵️

People sometimes tell me that the blank slate is a straw man, but wokeness puts it on steroids (to mix three metaphors). "We reject ideas of natural gifts and talents," announces the California Math Framework, mangling research beyond recognition. realclearinvestigations.com/…
