Brain scan studies are literally just publishing Rorschach tests. They have a decades long legacy of having some of the lowest rates of replicatability of any study ever devised. I’m genuinely surprised people are still taking them seriously after the Sam Harris “brain phrenology says religious people are stupid” controversy

It sucks but I think one single “even I think this is going too far” from him would actually rehabilitate his image

From “please don’t call us Nazis 😢” to both-sides’ing a genocide in two comments, classic

Addicted to the hospital lifestyle

The same people, now with the leverage of state violence. They reached their beliefs through false premises, that’s not going to change now that they’re even more false

I mostly just wish the year 2012 would die already

They’re advertising the upcoming capefilms as being “old school MCU” lmao

It’s pretty common for right wing nerds to use the unibomber manifesto as their one single, token piece of “leftist” theory they’ve engaged with so they can pull the old "unlike you I can read books I disagree with "

I think it’s mostly because 1) it’s edgy 2) no real leftist movement developed from or even has been attached to it, so it’s harmless to them and 3) he spends quite a lot of it ranting about feminists from what I remember

I’m still mad about the “Bernie is a bad candidate because he hasn’t been vetted” line so this very cathartic to read

Fwiw it probably did become a lifetime worth of money for a few thousand consultants

Where did they find these demons lmao

Yeah I’m not gonna knock anyone dunking on this guy cuz lol but it’s pretty understandable that he’d have an emotional reaction right after his party lost that poorly and that he wasn’t ready to read criticisms yet. obvs it’s written in an emotionally immature way but ¯\(ツ)/¯
