missed this when it came out but FP sent a year in review and this was a subscriber pick. I think it's wrong for two reasons: 1) as the new NSS demonstrates, the US is promoting a fracture *within* the west and 2)kleptocratic transnational networks do not care about civilizational differences

It’s wild we’re still talking about masks. I still mask up in grocery stores, elevators, public bathrooms, and public transit cuz I don’t like being sick and I don’t want to get my kid sick and it doesn’t have to be more complicated than not liking being sick. It’s weird anyone would question that.

This is getting passed around a lot because of the way it's worded but it's important to note that researchers have not shown any such thing - they have shown that mice with similar biomarkers can have those biomarkers reversed. No human testing has occurred and shown recovery of cognition & memory.
GOOD NEWS! Researchers have shown Alzheimer’s disease can be REVERSED- not just prevented. Using a potent neuroprotective compound called P7C3-A20, they found RESTORING balance to a central cellular energy molecule (NAD+) not only PREVENTED disease features but REVERSED them, EVEN at late stages.

"efforts to reduce the foreign-born population"
The Trump administration’s efforts to reduce the foreign-born population are being felt across the country. A past era of immigration crackdowns contains some lessons on how walling off the U.S. now will profoundly alter daily life for millions of Americans.
What America Might Look Like With Zero Immigration
The Trump administration’s efforts to reduce the foreign-born population are being felt in hospitals and soccer leagues and on Main Streets across the country, with hints of what’s to come.

I’m not even quite as anti-car as some folk, but yeah, there is no good reason for cars to be this goddamn huge and dangerous, other than an individualistic arms race with all the other people who think they need a big car to protect them from big cars. Ban them.
SUVs and big Utes "are 44 per cent more likely to kill an adult pedestrian or cyclist in a crash compared with a sedan, and 82 per cent more likely to kill a child" www.theage.com.au/national/vic...
Pedestrian fatalities reach 17-year-high. This trend could be why
Fifty-one pedestrians had been killed on the state’s roads this year as of Saturday – the most in any calendar year since 2008.

all the tech bros will get so mad at me for saying this but the thing about information in video format is that it doesn't scale. and you can't do it in parallel.
This might sound harsh, and judgmental, but if video is your preferred way of getting information about a topic, you’re a fucking moron

When we say "no, everything hasn't been digitized," I need you to understand that we really mean is that virtually nothing has been digitized. This is because the realm of primary sources that historians use is incomprehensibly large.
Seems like it's worth posting this one again.

America has 925 billionaires as of this year. Collectively they have a record $6.9 trillion in wealth.
The bottom 50% of Americans control $4.2 trillion in wealth.
When 925 people control more wealth than half a country’s population, we have a very serious problem.
