CNN and other broadcasts have reached a new low in RNC coverage, fawning over "unity" and "young Vance" - ignoring we are seeing a fascist party overflowing with criminals plot the downfall of America, a VP who is the single most radical and unqualified in history. No pushback on lack of information on Trump's injury. It's access journalism at its worst. It's not the media we need to defend democracy.

One common but rarely-mentioned variable in the interpretation of PSA results is that its value is testosterone-dependent. Men with total T <250ng/dl will have falsely depressed PSA results. Same process as with 5ARI use.

O'Regan's anti-scab law -- decades coming, with deep work from organized labour and the NDP -- will hold up as a fantastic piece of legislation and big leap for workers in this country.

@TheRickWilson A video tape of Trump molesting a baby could be shown live at the RNC & MAGA & Republicans would still nominate & excuse him.

@mehdirhasan Thank you for doing this.

MAGA is blaming "DEI" women on the Secret Service. Here's a list of some actual DEI (Dangerous, Entitled and Inadequate) hires. Most if not all military and economic disasters in the nation’s history can be traced to men at the top. @CourierNewsroom

@David_Moscrop @richardgoatcher Agreed. Everyone who claims it can't be done doesn't understand how unprecedented the time is and just how high the stakes are. Biden's losing. We have no choice. Everyone wanting him to step down wants the same exact result: for Trump and the GOP to lose.

@stkirsch has downloaded another data set and is trying to claim it proves how horribly dangerous the covid vaccines are, and leading to high numbers of vaccine-caused deaths.

His data set contains population level data that he claims "includes everyone who was alive between 1/1/2020 and 12/31/2022" in Czech republic, which if true, means the data set contains an accurate accounting of unvaccinated individuals and their deaths so he could compare vaccinated to unvaccinated death rates.

But rather than doing this, he makes all kinds of indirect convoluted arguments comparing different vaccine groups and then gish gallops through some of his other favorite talking points, while completely ignoring/hiding the unvaccinated data.

I can see why -- since the unvaccinated death rates are consistently higher than the ever vaccinated death rates across the age group (and both are close to average death rates in the age group from 2015-2019 so there is no evidence they are inaccurate), as you can see in the plot below.

In this thread I will briefly describe where exactly this plot comes from and why it is significant for evaluating Kirsch's claims.
