The peace treaty forced through by Trump and the US shows how little Biden and Harris cared. They are personally responsible for the deaths of tens of thousands of innocents. All in their administration should be held accountable and imprisoned for being complicit in genocide

Finding out you got cited is crazy. What do you mean other people read what I wrote and said “yeah let’s use this to justify our argument”. It’s surreal

Everyday is a beautiful reminder that the majority of people living in the United Stares read at a 6th grade level or lower. It’s important to know this when you wonder why easily searchable lies can spread

Multiple Deans, a professor, and now a university president have all lost their jobs simply because a professor acknowledged trans people exist in a course about young adult literature.

Democrats and liberals can’t actually do anything about these insane reactions to Charlie Kirk getting assassinated because they don’t disagree with the response, only that they aren’t in charge of it.

Democrats who wanted Pro-Palestinian protesters cancelled, deported, and jailed are shocked these tactics liberals endorsed can be used on them

Made a video on how to read scientific articles if you don’t know or are scared to try. Hope this helps and if you have feedback, let me know.

It’s hard to not see the parallels between what republicans are doing after Kirk with doxxing students and workers and what democrats did to dox and punish students and workers after speaking out against genocide in Gaza. They are the same and thanks to Biden, MAGA has a blueprint

Since Charlie Kirk was fatally shot, people on the left have been censored, punished, and targeted with more violence for telling the truth about Kirk's legacy. The cycle continues: mainstream whitewashing of violence begets more violence and the victims are blamed.

look Charlie Kirk started, maintained, & promoted turning point usa’s professor watchlist

I’ve been on it for over a decade and until this year I was the *only* UVM professor on it which means

his life’s work = my death threats
the media rush to canonize charlie kirk is legitimately maybe one of the weirdest things of this nature i have ever seen in my life

People talking about Charlie Kirk like they never listened to one thing he said. Fuck you mean he was a standup Christian and practiced good clean politics

His work was calling for lynching of trans people.

Political violence is wrong no matter what and he constantly called for it.

This is the reason liberals lose and suck at their jobs. They can’t even properly describe ghouls like Kirk because it might sound bad. So they lie and buddy up to freaks
The best way to honor Charlie's memory is to continue his work: engage with each other, across ideology, through spirited discourse. In a democracy, ideas are tested through words and good-faith debate — never through violence.

Currently reading Babel and remembering why I love R. F. Kuang as an author. She’s an exceptional world builder and I think all of her stories are relatable. The Poppy War is one of the best experiences I’ve ever had reading, Yellowface was a whirlwind as an audiobook, and it’s happening again.

Public health researchers, need advice. Do yall ever publish preprints? Have a paper that has been in the works for 2 years and no success with a journal yet. Looking for options to share out the policy brief and tips to improve chances to acceptance
