Facts dont care about your mental illness

Seriously check your blood sugar more often. It's starving your brain

what if the 'cure to liberalism' was wearing face masks and social distancing?

simplistic, sure. malicious? lol.

the question "how do we reduce/stop police shootings" and any good answer involve "increase education in poor urban areas", but anything except "just stop shooting black people, duh police, why dont u get that, stop hunting them" becomes malicious racism. in these urban environments its not just the black people who are being shot, its by and large the lowest performing black people, generally with criminal records. if systematic racism is at fault for the situation, and it is, we need to attack it systematically.

Part of the problem with the "social media banning conservatives" talking point is that posts like this aren't expressions of conservatism. These people aren't silenced because of conservative positions.... they get banned because of racist and inflammatory posts.

Youre right, maybe hes making a nuanced point about education and not justifying shootings based on the lack of education and therefore value of the person being shot.

I very much doubt it, and id bet id find a history that doesn't support that if I looked into somebody who just tweeted that Trumps leadership has been the best example in his lifetime because following experts mindlessly is not leadership. But ya know, maybe youre right and it is a nuanced point about education being part of the solution.

tbh i thought that was a totally different dude, so i clicked his twitter, and yikes dawg. that guy is seriously drinking the Trump brand kool aid. his "SM's tweet is not like mine" response had me connecting him to a totally different guy.

He did a podcast with Sam Harris. It's probably the best example I've heard of a smart person completely abandoning any sense of intellectual honesty in order to defend Trump. Weird stuff.
