@thomasgainant @jordanbpeterson I don’t think Dr Peterson is anti vaccine, he just studied the rise and decline of every autocratic society in the 20th centuryin great detail. There’s patterns you can gather from that; and clearly we’re following a pattern that if unchecked could lead to the same consequence.

@The_BigCast @McDonalds @McDonald’s needs to eliminate the app. I use it almost everyday, it incentivizes single customers (buying one meal). McDonald’s should just bring back across the board cheap food and do away with the app promotions. Thanks

🚨🇺🇸 Meanwhile in America

“Look at them crawling out of there - millions of Ticks”

The story is so insane - Farmers continue to report finding Boxes full of Ticks on their farmland, clearly left their on purpose.

Now the US has already seen a sharp increase in the number of Tick related diseases.

Yes. Funded, planned, coordinated

Public schools in Minneapolis are building Muslim prayer rooms and putting foot washing stations in the bathrooms…

Turns out religion in school is fine again.
Demographics are destiny.

Do everything and anything you can to tick proof your home and your clothing now.

With the Lyme disease vaccine coming out next year i fear our government is going to release plague like levels of ticks upon us in efforts to incentivize the masses into getting another vaccine.

The year is 1950. Your doctor lights a cigarette and tells you smoking is fine. He read it in a study. He is telling the truth about having read it. He does not know, or is not saying, that the study was funded by the tobacco industry.

The year is 1958. Your doctor tells you to eat less fat. The evidence is contested. The contestation is not in the public messaging. The food industry has been helpful in clarifying which findings deserve attention. Some researchers who published contradictory data have been quietly defunded. Ancel Keys is on the cover of Time magazine.

The year is 1962. Your doctor prescribes thalidomide to your pregnant wife for morning sickness. It has been approved. The FDA gave it the green light in Europe. Twelve thousand children will be born with severe limb malformations before anyone in an official capacity acknowledges the problem. The families are told the drug was safe. The drug was approved. Both of these things remain true.

The year is 1972. Your doctor prescribes Valium. Britain is in the grip of a benzodiazepine wave that will last two decades. The dependency risk is known internally. It is not shared. Your doctor is not lying to you. He was not told either.

The year is 1999. Your doctor prescribes Vioxx for your arthritis. It is newer than ibuprofen, well-tolerated, and Merck has a study showing it works. Merck also has internal data suggesting it roughly doubles the risk of heart attack. This data will not reach your doctor for four more years. Fifty thousand people are estimated to have died in the interim. Merck eventually settles for 4.85 billion dollars. No criminal charges are brought.

The year is 2002. Your doctor prescribes OxyContin. Purdue Pharma trained its sales representatives to tell doctors the addiction risk was less than one percent. That figure came from a letter, not a study. The letter was about patients with terminal cancer on short-term doses in hospital settings. Your doctor is a GP with a patient who has a bad back. Nobody draws a distinction. Nobody is required to.

The year is 2008. Your doctor checks your cholesterol. Your LDL is elevated. You are prescribed a statin. Nobody mentions that the number needed to treat for primary prevention is approximately 250. Nobody mentions that the muscle deterioration you'll notice over the next two years is listed as a rare side effect rather than a documented pattern affecting a meaningful percentage of patients. The trial that informed the prescription was funded by the manufacturer.

Now it is today.

Your doctor has new guidelines. New studies. New consensus.

He is confident.

He has always been confident.

The confidence has never been the problem.

The confidence is, in fact, precisely the problem.

I once remember reading a study/poll that asked different men across the world if they thought they could fight a bear 1 on 1, unarmed, and win.

All across the world everyone polled like 98% no. But only the Americans believed they could do it.

"It was ready to kill someone, wasn't it?"

"Yes."

Daisy McGregor, UK policy chief at Anthropic, a top AI company, says it's "massively concerning" that Anthropic's Claude AI has shown in testing that it's willing to blackmail and kill in order to avoid being shut down.

Achilles has a lot to teach us about the marriage and family debate that plagues modern discussion so much in our selfish and narcissistic world.
In Book 11 of the Odyssey when Odysseus meets Achilles in the underworld, we learn what the ancients had to teach us about the true meaning of life that modern people have really lost touch with in these meaningless debates about "sHouLd I hAvE kIDs".
In the movie, "Troy," the directors make it seem like the main thing that mattered to Achilles was Glory. But in the Odyssey, it is revealed that Achilles' primary love, as reflected upon in the afterlife, is to be on Earth, alive, spending more time with his son, Neoptolemus.
He asks Odysseus what became of his son in the Trojan war and Odysseus describes the great conquests, bravery and warrior feats of his son and that he returned home safely, with not a scratch on him. Achilles' response is pure joy and happiness, even in death.
And the ghost of swift Achilles,
Aeacus' grandson, strode off through the fields of asphodel,
exulting in pride over all I'd said of his son,
his gallant, glorious son.
Achilles, the apogee of masculinity and glory, of earthly success in all ways, reveals that the only thing that matters when he is beyond the veil of life and death, is knowing the glory of his own son, and his descendants after him. Without descendants, all our accomplishments are meaningless, stupid and small. The ancients knew this. It's time modern man understood this as well.
