Sports has always been an arena for political conflicts to play out in a controlled setting. At the turn of the 19th Century, white supremacists were desperate to find a white boxer to defeat Jack Johnson, the first Black heavyweight boxing champion...1/5

I just watched the first 2 minutes of the Charlie Sheen documentary & it’s off to a good start. Sheen relays a story about how he was invited to meet the pilot of a standard commercial passenger flight while he was ‘pirate drunk‘… 1/3

I watched a YouTube video by a trans woman on Julius Evola’s fascist philosophy and the comments section was full of vile fascist hatred. All the other videos I could find on Evola described him as a hero and a prophet. We’re doomed.

I was just informed that my friends have been giving money to an alleged photographer from Gaza, Sarah Murtaja. If you Google "Sarah Murtaja," there are multiple results stating that she is a scammer. 1/5

What ‘evidence’ are they going to submit? A copy of Gender Trouble? The Second Sex? The only relevant evidence is in a book on gender theory.

None of these people defended Kirk’s death. None. This is just a smear campaign to get people fired.

Trump’s friends are fascists. Who can deny it? Fox & Friends co-host Brian Kilmeade said that homeless people who ‘don’t use the resources given to them’ should be killed by ‘involuntary lethal injection… or something - just kill them.’

Despite popular opinion, I don't think that most leftists - even those who support political violence - are "celebrating" Charlie Kirk's assassination. One reason is that no one knows who assassinated him, or why...1/5

I'm reading Rima Basu's excellent paper on why philosophers would publish bullshit. Can anyone recommend other resources on perverse incentives in academia that lead to bullshitting, bad faith, and other epistemic perversions?
