Too liberal for many conservatives, too conservative for many liberals, not libertarian enough for many libertarians, but happy to speak with all.

“The man who egged Jeremy Corbyn was denounced as a fascist and jailed for a month. The man who milkshaked Nigel Farage is treated as a hero. The double standards of our arrogant, authoritarian chattering classes are astonishing”, says Brendan O’Neill

@ericweinstein I congratulate your daughter on her success (having great parents certainly helps), and I congratulate you on the greatest head of hair to be bestowed upon any human. Kudos, sir.

Remember. Kevin McCallister could have phoned the police at any time. He was a child who had accidentally been left alone. One call and he would have been safe. But it was never about safety. He was hunting those men. He wanted them to die. It was fun for him. He enjoyed it.

@ericweinstein @benshapiro Merry Christmas to you and your family, may the rest of your day remain stress- and indigestion-free 🎅🏻🎄🎁🍽🍗🥂

[Eric Weinstein @ericweinstein]

We need to talk about @Patreon and what appears to be a common move to create frameworks to selectively ban those who are not “woke-compliant”. There is a full flip where “Trust and Safety” means neither. The effect is to make it impossible to have adult discussions on platforms.

"Instead of signing the perfectly legitimate agreement, what did Konstantin Kisin do? He ridiculed it! A comedian actually made fun of something which was meant to be taken completely seriously," writes Godfrey Elfwick

@Emmyjewel Would transracialism be a valid loophole?
SJW: "You need to check your white privilege."
Me: "I identify as black."
SJW: "Hmmmm... Then you're an Uncle Tom, race-traitor!"
I guess not... :'(

[Bret Weinstein @BretWeinstein]

This is a modern creation myth, delivered as if it were an analysis.

It is as inaccurate and self-serving the intersectionalist's claim that all disparities arise from oppression.

Those pushing these stories persuade through flattery. Don't be fooled. Don't take the bait.

[Dave Rubin @RubinReport]

This thread is completely insane. Portland is lost.

Andy, I’m becoming a patron of yours right now...

[Dave Rubin @RubinReport]

The road to hell is paved with good intentions.

Eventually they’ll claim everyone who isn’t a Far Left Progressive is pushing hate, division and violence. Do people really not see how this game works yet?

[Heather E Heying @HeatherEHeying]

No.

Teach the naturalistic fallacy, then point it out when students fall for it, as most do at first. Also teach that there is no static “best” form.

Once you’ve done this, garbage-interpretations of evolution (e.g. eugenics) are easily dismissed.

Sam Harris and I are preparing to positively tear each other apart on stage over just how little evidence there is that G-d exists and just how awesome science is!

Come join us in Detroit, Milwaukee or Chicago. See you there....

Thrilled that @JonHaidt & my book was named to the Financial Times list of recommended books for 2018. Great company to be in.

"Thanksgiving may be our most old-fashioned holiday. Gratitude itself seems out of date at a time when so many people feel ‘entitled’ to whatever they get—and indignant that they didn't get more."

[James Damore @JamesADamore]

Today, I'm thankful other tech companies are more tolerant.

Tomorrow, I'll return to worried because the gatekeeper of the world's information is politically bigoted.
