Besides linking Tylenol in pregnant women to autism, RFK Jr. now says circumcision is part of the reason why kids are autistic.
"Children who are circumcised early have double the rate of autism, and it's highly likely because they're given Tylenol. None of this is positive..."

It is normal to feel insane when the entire political and journalist class across the Anglophone world is getting horned up over the idea of segregating, criminalizing, and exterminating you and all of your friends.

it's better to think of the useless centrist 'expand the tent but only rightwards' media people & politicians as blockers paid to occupy space that could otherwise be utilized productively by a serious person. their opinions are pre-approved by their donors and will never change

A Borges story about a guy who gets AI to summarize all the world’s information for him, and then summarize the summary, until the AI has the whole world summarized into a single word. He sits alone at his desk, staring at the word, repeating it endlessly, certain he is experiencing everything

My latest newsletter is about why being anti-genAI is to be pro-human.
It's about why it's time to fight. Why we need to fight. And it's about the cost of failure.

Which is why I think it is important to state, early and often, that trans rights are a red line for me (and I hope for many of you). Push Democrats to nominate someone who doesn't sit around doing podcasts where he nods along with anti-trans ghouls.

there comes a point where failing to choose a side is indistinguishable from siding with the aggressor, and it was way back there

We're going to need Nuremberg trials when this is over, yes, and to send a significant number of people currently in the federal government to prison. But we're going to need an unwavering commitment to ostracizing the supporters of it, as well. Never accept them again in polite society.

I think it’s important to remember fascism does not only win because of how people vote in a single election. Or even two. That is not the first and only cause. And if your institutions were resistant to fascism it would not succeed in consolidating power within a few months.

this is just laziness, the dems want to/feel entitled to votes but don't want to do any actual work of earning those votes.
