This is our tragic reality. 👇 "...in both the United States and Canada, political affiliation is now one of the single strongest — if not the strongest — predictors of vaccination status." My take: thestar.com/opinion/contri… via @TorontoStar

The FDA’s Regulation of Mifepristone jamanetwork.com/journals/jama/… "FDA oversight of mifepristone, developed during key moments from 2011 to 2023, has been shaped by scientific evidence & a cautious regulatory approach..." Alas, with current FDA, politics > science.

Why do we feel starved for time?sciencenews.org/article/starve… "Recent research shows that time poverty depends more on perceived shortages than actual ones." Studies: people have MORE free time now, but we all FEEL busier. Key: fragmentation, less "flow" vibe, online environment...

The cliche manosphere look – beard, clenched jaw, jacked (with, um, Big Pharma help?) – is just fashion. Equivalent to the "libtard" blue hair they mock. Equal to a hippie's long hair or a punk's safety pin. No utility beyond vanity & "this is my team!" signalling.

Public trust wasn’t broken by accident: it was a deliberate, health & antivaccine disinformation campaign led by extremist political elements, Fox News and their unqualified contrarian MD talking heads, WSJ Opinion, Great Barrington Declaration, podcasters, wellness influencers
Dr. Marty Makary@DrMakaryFDA

Covid absolutism broke public trust. Now, we need to meet people where they are to rebuild it.

Somethings are lies. Demonstrably false. These aren't "perspectives" that should be considered. It is BS. Bending Reality open.substack.com/pub/keithkloor… by @keithkloor "Imagine if you woke up tomorrow & saw that NASA announced on its official website that the Apollo 11 moon landing was a government hoax."
