This is pretty egregious when you look at the actual context of the quote. And people are praising that book?
A small (personal) example of this book’s intellectual dishonesty:

My father-in-law is reading In Covid’s Wake, and excitedly told me he found a passage where I’m quoted. The quote in question is me saying the FBI worked to censor speech on social media.

Huh? When did I say that?!

Betcha a shiny nickel this is because they told their LLM to redact all the initials used to identify minor victims and so it also redacted S.D.N.Y.
I have seen DOJ do some strange redactions before, but this is up there:

At least 30 people have died in ICE custody in less than a year under the current administration. With the massive increase in detainments, conditions inside ICE detention facilities will only get worse, leading to even more deaths.

DOJ briefly uploaded this letter from Jeff Epstein to serial child molester Larry Nassar:

"Our president shares our love of young, nubile girls. When a young beauty walked by he loved to 'grab snatch,' whereas we ended up snatching grub in the mess halls of the system."

A ton of people left Twitter for Bluesky out of hatred of fascists and the leftists here decided to try to be more hated than the fascists.
Shoutout to the small vicious community that enjoys keeping this website as obscure and unfriendly as possible.

Love you guys. Y'all are out there making the dream happen 😘😇

This has been made available, so for purposes of commenting on Bari Weiss's decision to spike the story, here's a live-post of that segment.

It begins with a "you may recall" summary of the deportation to el Salvador. Describes the admin's claim that it could deport the men without due process

again we basically agree. stancil is to the right of pretty much everyone here and he's correctly treated like a dog for it.

Utterly lawless: "Agents lined up Latino workers and released people they said were U.S. citizens. They questioned and detained 57 people, including people who said only that they wanted a lawyer."

Agents illegally detained dozens of US citizens and demanded that they prove their citizenship. We need to defend our private property rights against trespassing government agents.

ICE agents illegally break into a woman's bathroom in a NY nutrition bar manufacturing plant. "Pull up your pants," says a male agent. The agents only had a warrant to review employer documents. They didn't have a warrant to search for, detain, or arrest anyone there.

There was a thing in the Anne Rice Reddit where some young people were showing up and pretending that made-up quotes were quotes from the books, and they were genuinely astonished at the idea that people who have read them would immediately recognize that they weren't from the books.
Just apropos of several things going on on this site, I don’t want to be see mean or judgy (this isn’t a value judgement, to be clear), but I really feel like a lot of people are functionally illiterate. This goes beyond reading comprehension issues.

Ngl I think the replies to this post have convinced me that we are just ngmi as a nation. We are just too collectively stupid.
Homelessness increased primarily because of immigration (lots of people came to the US without setting up housing).
