Yeah. Specifically, the "woke is ruining science", "there is only one way of knowing: western science", "genitals, genitals, gametes, gametes" racist, sexist, fragile transphobes -- several of whom are also sex pests.
Newly released files from the investigation of convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein reveal that his ties to the scientific community were deeper than previously known.

People outside of Canada need to realize Mark Carney has cut thousands of public service jobs and fast tracking neoliberal business and energy sales over Indigenous land and LGBTQ+ rights in the country.
He's paving the way for fascism but getting credit as some brave leader calling out Trump

“Canada needs to stand against the kind of intolerance that's sweeping the world.”
Fascism scholar Jason Stanley tells @mehdirhasan.bsky.social why Canadian PM Mark Carney should have more explicitly decried rising global intolerance in his Davos address.

Why would the Superbowl organizers invite someone from a shithole country with a corrupt, criminal president to perform at half time?

The first people to reach the Kitsissut Islands off the north-west coast of Greenland were Indigenous peoples, who crossed over 50 kilometres of treacherous water

See also Carney as a supposed climate champion (within the context of being a banker and make-the-rich-richer-er).
1. People struggle to reconcile Keir Starmer’s ruthless ambition, Machiavellian manoeuvres, breaking of promises, collaboration in genocide, bans on protest, aid cuts, benefit cuts and war on nature with his history as a human rights lawyer. But perhaps there is no contradiction.

Digital asbestos.
I'm convinced AI is our generation's radium - a discovery with genuinely useful applications in specific, controlled circumstances that we stupidly put in everything from kid's toys to toothpaste until we realised the harm far too late where future generations will ask if we were out of our minds.

They're angry that a performer from Puerto Rico was the main halftime show performer. After all, Puerto Ricans are *checks notes* American citizens.

Turning Point USA’s Halftime Show Was Exactly What You’d Expect
“The All-American Halftime Show,” born out of outrage over Bad Bunny’s Super Bowl performance, fell short of the hype. From Kid Rock’s poor lip synching to Erika Kirk being MIA, it was simply dull.

I am so tired of rich people refusing to build anything new and just burning everything that exists as a public good to the ground instead. They have decimated journalism this way. Remember when they used to be scared enough to build public libraries and parks?

The NY Times again, everybody.
From the same newspaper that published “did feminism fuck up the work place?”, we now have “did feminism fuck up sex?”
The NYT really is desperate to cater to conservative audiences and it’s just getting more obvious and embarrassing.
