This is essential to understanding Jay Bhattacharya.

He has never gotten over the fact that he was rebuked by the mainstream of public health for his idea to mass infect the population with a novel, deadly pathogen for herd immunity—for the economy.

But like, he’s an operative more than scientist.
Still very aggrieved about the pandemic apparently.

NOW: More than 98% of #Costco shareholders have just rejected an anti-DEI measure

The attempt to force Costco to audit their #DEI work was by an anti-inclusion lobby group:

There is also an entire “literature“ that argues the holocaust didn’t happen, and that slavery was a beneficial benevolent system. But no sane moral person treats it as having intellectual merit. We call racists and Nazis racists and Nazis.

i’ve mentioned this before but one of the facebook docs frances haugen leaked was a bunch of engineers debating whether a “meaningful social interaction” (a big metric for shareholders) should actually require two human beings. it was a ridiculous conversation among some truly ridiculous people.
Meta's great new idea, now that Facebook and Instagram are infected with AI slop, is to also let AI-generated characters made by users appear as actual accounts on the platforms. The last stage of "social" media is millions of bots giving each other thumbs-up reacts.

Wow. Biden's former COVID czar—who downplayed the ongoing long-term impacts of COVID—just endorsed several of Trump's picks to lead health agencies. All of Trump's nominees have spread misinformation about vaccines, opposed lifesaving COVID measures, and promoted false health claims.
