What are your thoughts on this situation?

I'm a PhD viral immunologist, former CDC fellow, and a dad. I've encouraged following public health directives, but sadly I can no longer say that. Our response to delta variant is unsupported by data, wildly disproportionate to the risk, and harmful. #tncms-source=signup" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">hmbreview.com/opinion/matter…

@opinion_black I'm in Brixton most days and hardly ever see trouble. I think you've been a bit unlucky there.

Just arrived in Brixton. Walk out the tube station and witness a fight because I think one person ‘accidentally’ bumped into another. I hate London. 😒

@DavidTaylorYork @DeborahMeaden So it's not?

And with all the stuff going on in the world you chose to pick on this. I can only wonder why…

@clairlemon Exaggeration and simplification are far greater issues in public discourse than outright lying because they are so pervasive.

Narratives which invoke the omnipresent forces of ‘The Patriarchy,’ ‘New World Order,’ ‘White Supremacy,’ and ‘Big Pharma’ usually contain some kernels of truth. But they are over-extrapolated to the point that they flatten reality into a simplistic binary of good vs evil.

Social media allows people to prove anything anecdotally. There always someone somewhere that has said something.

@ummyaseen123 Who is she?

1. Think before you speak 2. Err on the positive 3. Don't hide behind a group 4. Be yourself or acknowledge when you aren't and why 5. Apologise only when you are at fault 6. Set goals that suit your personality 7. Avoid things over which you have no control

@libertydownundr @Eggys0ul My ancestors were serfs. I demand reparations.

If African-Americans can get reparations for slavery, because they aren't over it, then I demand reparations from the British government for how they treated my early Australian ancestors.

@StanCollymore Anecdotal evidence found on Twitter can prove any agenda.

Only a country with a deep sickness can do this. It's not one or two, it's Dad's passing this on to their Sons who themselves had it passed on from their Father's. No normal country thinks like this 75 years on. A deep sickness.

@ummyaseen123 Bit harsh?

@ummyaseen123 England vs Germany Who will win History says Germany, which seems to count for a lot in tournaments for some reason. Can England overcome that psychological baggage?

@T2Mardybum @dazthevillan I don't see why having a brummie accent would make you sound more thick than a posh accent. It's just different noises.

I love hearing Jack Grealish speak on the telly. There needs to be more Brummie accents in the media. Regardless of what the haters say.

@ggreenwald @krystalball @joerogan Certain factions of the liberal left literally hate blue collar folks (and won’t admit it) and it drives them insane that @joerogan has that type of vibe and is insanely successful

@DrKarlynB Please block me

From now on, I’m blocking ANYONE who comes into my feed screaming about how CRT is anti-white and if that leaves me with 3 followers, so be it. I have never seen the level of toxicity on here that I’ve seen coming from these people and I’m not going to be around it

If you're ever in doubt that the modern left is about identity formation, not political objectives, ask yourself a simple question: is there a political concession large enough to satisfy the modern left? A. No.

@ummyaseen123 That's a nice thing to say
