Believing China/Russia DOES have all the gold they say they do (+ more) despite no audits, while at same time believing the US DOES NOT have the gold they say they do bc no audits...is a good example of those who like to point out psyops...getting psyoped themselves.🫡

Gorsuch's opinion in Trump v Slaughter is an absolute barn-burner. He is gunning for the entire administrative state, and he's coming in hot.

Wrong. I hate communism because I live in Japan next to Communist North Korea and Communist China and the former USSR.

Together, they killed around 100 million people in the last century (from 1917-now). Three countries... 100 million people dead.

Communism is a death cult.

[Todd Lewis @toddglewis]

Would you like to make a legal argument justifying this assertion of state power?

Because the contrary legal argument, that the second amendment defines an individual right and that the fourteenth amendment extends that individual protection against state governments, is pretty clear.

@toddglewis Fun times and great memories!

Reminder: the year Fidel Castro took power, Cuba had the same GDP as Greece. The year he died, Cuba had the same GDP as Sudan. In other words: Socialism. Fails. Every. Time.

[Eric Weinstein @ericweinstein]

Yeah…nah.

Here’s what I think is happening instead.

I haven’t wanted to say this, but there is a problem with organized Skepticism even more than conspiracy theories. My claim is that from hard evidence NOT ONE of the following is an extraordinary claim:

The CIA not only gathers intelligence but kills people, violates rights, gaslights and evades scrutiny and oversight.

The U.S. hides bioweapons programs.

The U.S. engages in regime change through charity and aid programs.

We in the U.S. medically experiment on our own citizens without consent.

We run drugs.

The DOJ and FBI are actively and flagrantly obstructing justice.

Putin easily kills people outside Russia.

We conspire and use academics for sheepskin washing our dirty work.

U.S. newspapers actively avoid reporting stories about which the U.S. population is desperate for information. They also carry extremely non neutral biases.

We actively conspired to hide open and obvious presidential dementia. And by extension, there are massive conspiracies at every level below that one. At a mind boggling level.

There are Special Access programs that are about real and/or fake NHI/UFOs

Etc.

————

The last thing we need is skeptics telling us the bar for such conspiracies and/or governmental accountability requires extraordinary evidence.

Somehow the skeptics have it totally wrong.

After Watergate, Iran-Contra, COVID, Church/Pike committees, etc. these are no longer extraordinary claims to raise. They are ordinary claims.

I have no idea whether Lindsay Graham died of natural causes. But I can tell you the difference between a skeptic and a scientist looking at the claim.

A skeptic’s first move is to lurch for the budding conspiracy and try to pull the idea of foul play off the table first and then to require a mountain of evidence to consider such a thing.

A scientist firmly grabs the skeptic’s hand and forces him to put the hypothesis back on the table and says “Uh, you’re not in charge here. There’s a history…and I’m going to need to see something other than reference to null hypotheses, William of Occam and Carl Sagan…because that’s not how science and investigation works.”

Time for extra scientific skepticism to die I think. Covert operations and conspiracies are difficult enough to document as it is.

We don’t need skeptics as self appointed referees.

@RepDonBacon You're a Republican congressman. Why are you not reading Murray Rothbard's America's Great Depression?

Once you start coercively intervening in society, with regulations etc, you get drawn into ever-deepening levels of control because of the unintended consequences of your interventions.

I've never worked at a company (or in a labor market) that requires a doctor's note, and I doubt that I would want to. I've also never phoned in sick when I wasn't actually sick.

Many, perhaps most, major innovations start as rich people doing things that are not affordable to normal people. That was true of automobiles, airplanes, much medical innovation, computers, and more.

You can look at the story and see extreme inequality. If so, you are a dumb person. You're missing the point.

"The co-creator of the U.K. sitcom "Father Ted" was arrested at London Heathrow Airport on Monday allegedly over several social media posts criticizing transgender activists."

Not merely arrested; detained under the Terrorism Act, with no right to counsel or right against self-incrimination, on the basis of no articulable suspicion of any criminal activity.

I hope that my UK friends are understanding of my not visiting them in their civil liberties hellhole of a country.

I strongly disagree. Calling everyone who disagrees with you "far right" makes clear what the game was from the beginning.

Keep it up, fellas!
