@nntaleb You explained it very well in your book which I read cover to cover. Are you saying that only a small minority of global opinion opposes the way Israel has conducted the Gaza war?

@alexandrosM @IAmSubjugated @grok Grok fail probably because be being not bluecheck. @alexandrosM I'm curious about your abstinence signalling. Could you find any pointer about how bad the track record is? I could only find this website via grok, and seems suspiciously good: x.com/grok/status/20…

I have deliberately avoided watching when a single Jiang video all this time. It hasn't been easy at the rate this guy is colonizing all the channels I watch but I've done it.
Ava Petrucci@mmeJen

I have followed Jiang for over a year. I have no idea who is funding him or what faction of people he represents. He is thought provoking so I continue to consider what he says. That's different than blind trust or following a leader. I don't really trust anyone.

@levelsio In London you can book with medichecks (dot com, not affiliated) and book one of their walk-in clinic. You'd be flying you out EU but not western Europe. I would have bet you could go similarly private on other EU countries too.

I was never able to do blood tests when I asked for it in Netherlands Doctor asked "why? you're not sick?" Then I tried in Portugal (at Germano de Sousa) but they never picked up the phone or when they did were so slow and unhelpful I gave up, they also require a doctor prescription btw The first place I could get my blood tested was Thailand in 2018, I just walked into Bumrungrad and asked for it, amazing experience Last few years we just fly to Brazil and do it here, the nurse comes to your home/hotel at 8am and takes your blood, same or next day results online I find it funny I keep having to fly out of Western Europe to do blood tests, they make it impossibly hard to do them Which is retarded

Wow! David Gorski somehow thinks I wouldn’t have been thrilled to vote for a highly qualified black woman. Give me Condeliza Rice with a conscience and I’ll be first in line.

@evan_doji @KleinBottled @BretWeinstein You'd both would agree that Rice doesn't seem to have a conscience. If she did, would you still have reservations? Accusing him of racism makes no sense, but Gorski has repeatedly failed to show any intellectual honesty so it doesn't surprise anyone.

@KleinBottled @BretWeinstein Nobody who is actually liberal would choose a right-wing person like Rice. That makes absolutely no sense, unless he's actually become conservative, which seems to be the case.

In 1838, only one in seven men could vote. Not women. Not workers. Not the poor. So ordinary people wrote a charter. Six demands. The right to vote. Secret ballots. Pay for MPs. They collected 1.2 million signatures. Parliament rejected it. They collected 3.3 million signatures. Parliament rejected it. The government arrested their leaders. Transported them to Australia. Soldiers opened fire on a march in Newport. Twenty-two killed. They collected 5.7 million signatures. Parliament rejected it. Three petitions. Ten million signatures. Three rejections. They didn't stop. Over sixty years, five of the six demands became law. Working men got the vote. Secret ballots. MPs paid. Every time you vote, that's them. Ordinary people who refused to be ignored. If you think this should be taught in schools, help us reach more people: proudofus.co.uk/support Be part of us Be Proud Of Us 🇬🇧 proudofus.co.uk

All of the Top 50 Substack newsletters are leftists (Richardson, Reich, Krugman), ex-conservative leftists (Bulwark, Lincoln Project), or post-left liberals (Weiss, Taibbi). The only conservatives are yours truly and what seems to be a spam newsletter run by Mike Huckabee.

Nobody has fought harder for full release of the Epstein files and prosecutions of those who abused children more than I did, knowing full well that the legacy media, far-left propagandists and those who are actually guilty would: 1. Admit nothing 2. Deny everything 3. Make counter-accusations against me I knew that I would be smeared relentlessly, despite never having attended his parties or been on his “Lolita Express” plane or set foot on his creepy island or done anything wrong at all. Nonetheless, the extreme pain of being accused of being the opposite of who I am was worth it. The strong must protect those cannot protect themselves, especially vulnerable children. I will gladly accept any amount of future pain to do more to protect kids and give them a chance to grow up and have happy lives.

Jay Bhattacharya
Jay Bhattacharya@DrJBhattacharya·
I think this thread is posted in at least a simulacrum of good faith, so I'll give a substantive response. It is obviously true that in the moment of crisis, leaders face tremendous pressure to do something dramatic to address the crisis, and often those decisions turn out, in retrospect, to be wrong. In the case of the covid crisis, the problems were confounded by a determined unwillingness of scientific and public health leaders to respond to data -- in real time -- that showed that core assumptions underlying the lockdown strategy were wrong. Here is a short list of facts about covid that undermined these leaders' core assumptions: * covid is airborne, * covid spreads asymptomatically, * covid infection fatality rate << case fatality rate, * covid has a sharp age gradient in its infection mortality risk, * lockdowns cannot suppress covid spread or protect the vulnerable for long, * lockdowns crush the lives and well-being of children, the poor, and the working class, and almost everyone other than the laptop class * lockdowns cause a form of psychological terror that guarantee they could never last just two weeks The WHO and public health leaders got all of these facts wrong in 2020, which I suppose is understandable. What is not understandable is that these same leaders conducted "devastating takedowns" of even well-credentialed outside critics who pointed out that the WHO's core assumptions were incorrect, and accepted these assumptions as true even as overwhelming data to the contrary emerged in real time. What is not understandable is the utter confidence that the WHO and public health leaders expressed in these ideas and lockdown policies to the public as the only way to protect the population, going so far as to call for censorship of contrary voices on social media and elsewhere. The closest analogue I can think of is the set of "best and brightest" advisors who told Pres. LBJ that victory in the Vietnam War was just around the corner, based on a whole host of faulty information. Leaders who come out of such situations having embraced such a litany of catastrophically failed ideas and policies have a few choices on how to handle the post-crisis era. 1) They can, in good faith, admit their failures and work to reform systems so the disaster never happens again. This would be best, though I would understand why the public would want a new set of leaders to design and implement the reforms. I personally am very happy to work with and learn from public health leaders who choose this option. 2) They can pretend to have done nothing wrong, clinging to power for as long as they can, hoping against hope that history will vindicate them, crushing public trust in the institutions they lead. 3) They can try to pretend they never recommended or adopted the catastrophically failed policies, hoping that the public has a short memory. This is the current strategy that the @WHO is taking. 4) They can appeal to the difficulty of the job of handling a crisis under considerable uncertainty, not in a spirit of reform, but rather as an excuse to avoid responsibility for their failed crisis management. This is the approach that Koopmans is taking in her thread. I have very little sympathy for the covid crisis leaders who choose options 2, 3, or 4. Their job was to manage the uncertainty with wisdom and humanity, which they failed to do. They cannot, at this juncture, turn around and expect public sympathy because their job was hard, or expect the public to forget their failure. These leaders have destroyed public trust in public health, and should step aside as a new set of public health leaders works to fix the damage they caused.

@DrJBhattacharya I will give this 1 try. I am looking at your inciting tweets with astonishment. You probably group me in the box of lock down pushers. I wonder if you ever have been in a public health crisis advisory role, hospital outbreak management team, employer health
