Braedon: I come from a nation that believed in fascist ideology for a while. And we don’t want to go to that again. We are close to it because people want to simplify complex problems. The essence of fascism is to simplify complex problems and feed people who don't have time to read some bullshit.

Russia did exactly this to HRC in 2016, aiming to suppress her vote, and probably did. Musk no doubt did suppress Harris voting as well with these demotivation techniques. This should be illegal.

People I think we should be able to punch in the nose on an emergency disaster basis:

2. Lookie loos taking pics and selfies at fire sites while homeowners are fleeing
3. Influencers, whether fire-related or not (just give me this one)

"I don't give a damn whether the perpetrator was brown, black, white, blue, or yellow. I think we should support the victims of those crimes and if you're only obsessed about the perpetrators, as Elon Musk is, as Robert Jenrick is, then you don't actually care about these girls." - me vs Piers
"You've just made my point for me. 'These are the scandals we're not talking about.' Why? Why are we defining child sex crimes by race unless you're a racist? I care about the victims of all crimes."

A really strong, effective climate advocate has periods where she crashes and can't do anything but sleep for two or three days at a time.

Your colleague David Leonhardt helped minimize COVID mortality and health impacts on an almost daily basis. And the paper amplified other minimizers. The media is largely culpable here.

It is truly wild that it is estimated that more than 20 million people died of Covid and the prevailing vibe is that the world overreacted. That is an astonishing toll! More people died of Covid in the US than in the Civil War. www.pbs.org/newshour/hea...
5 years after it appeared, things we know and still don't know about COVID
Five years after the virus that causes COVID emerged in China it still holds some mysteries.

Even in Mariupol where Moscow waged a major propaganda drive about its supposed 'reconstruction', the latter has primarily been for Russians who 'buy' up properties on land which held the homes Russia destroyed or on expropriated land
