Oh? I just checked my Child books and can't find anywhere where she caramelizes (that said, I've only used the index and it's clearly incomplete). I'll check out Serious Eats. Thanks for the tip 👍🏻

That was "plandemic" - my phone autocorrected.
Noting that Ludvigsson also co-authored with Kulldorff several pieces for the Swedish newspapers.

Brownstone astroturf is now on Bluesky so let's remember some of their greatest (antivaxx) hits.

On the whole Turing test thing, I can recommend reading about Moravec’s Paradox, which is something people in the field talk a lot now (and used to also, best I can tell):

WaPo... With weird English usage in the article title. Inside, they do switch from "of" to a more natural "against" but front with "military deployments to fight crime in Democrat-led cities." Unreal bs.

Ouch. I wonder if there's any possibility to squeeze all the antivaxxers and hobby economists out FHoM so it finally becomes possible to get the covid vaccines and so there's clarity of communication across Sweden. Unbelievable nonsense.

Nice job, DN (not). A whole article about Stegra maybe going insolvent without mentioning Northvolt a single time. But Harald Mix and Vargas all mentioned. All the same scheme. I guess it's more public retirement money down the drain.

"Health economic analysis." As mentioned, I don't believe this analysis (esp. in view of US insurance companies doing the reverse). Noting a heavy emphasis on the economic analysis vs a health one, despite FHM choosing to say that unlike drugs, gaming addiction etc, post covid is not "their" issue.

An article about how Sweden slid down in the average lifespan rankings that seems more certain than it should be that the healthcare system differences don't have anything to do with it.

There's simply not a remotely similar amount of calls for violence on both sides and the left doesn't have established pols or friendly podcasters in the same numbers calling for literal violence or dog whistling. For example

A nice deal. Six months att, arbetsbefriad, get to badmouth the employer that is still paying you in press in the meantime. While working another job. I guess FHM was hoping he'd just shut up.

Our family now sick for over a week because school wants kids to be at school rain or shine, viruses or no viruses, thanks to this type of attitude. Also, this is not herd immunity

![The report changed the thought process surrounding welfare, specifically concerning welfare laws and policy and the "solution" to poverty. Politicians began to place blame on gender and cultural differences between black and white people rather than welfare laws. While feminists and other activists fought against the ideas birthed from this report, the belief of a fractured black family began to take hold and influence policy.[22]
The term "welfare queen" became a catchphrase during political dialogue of the 1980s and 1990s. The term came under criticism for its supposed use as a political tool and for its derogatory connotations. Criticism focused on the fact that individuals committing welfare fraud were, in reality, a very small percentage of those legitimately receiving welfare.[9] Use of the term was also seen as an attempt to stereotype recipients in order to undermine public support for AFDC.[4]
The welfare queen idea became an integral part of a larger discourse on welfare reform, especially during the bipartisan effort to reform the welfare system under Bill Clinton.[3] Anti-welfare advocates ended AFDC in 1996 and overhauled the system with the introduction of TANF with the belief that welfare discouraged self-reliance.[20] Despite the new system's time-limits, the welfare queen legacy has endured and continues to shape public perception and policy](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:rcqlz5owgx72exsu6pjjklag/bafkreifswxxgcq3hgobzp764yqdnovmcq67hjnnpgeolqbsi4lvicua5re@jpeg)
