Arguing that black people and women are genetically inferior merely requires using bad statistics and data. Explaining why people want to use bad statistics and data to argue that black people and women are genetically inferior requires analyzing their racism and sexism, which makes them angry.
You’re allowed to argue that black people and women are genetically inferior. But you’re NOT allowed to argue they are NOT inferior because that’s divisive. www.nytimes.com/2025/05/09/u...

The Trump administration calculated its raft of new tariffs primarily based on existing trade balances.

Happy and proud to share this commentary on which I worked in the past months !
The battery sector is entering a new phase, whose development will be key for the auto OEMs at a key moment for the industry.
In this commentary, we try to summarize which are the main elements to look at.

The U.S. has cut off support for the electronic countermeasures of Ukraine's F-16s.
Sadly predictable. I think many analysts were thinking it without saying it, for fear of appearing to suggest it.
Sorry, Lockheed Martin. I will henceforth have to recommend that nobody buys your aircraft.
