I extensively contributed to this fact check on RFK’s critiques and calls to retract a recent Annals of Internal Medicine paper by Danish researchers showing dose of vaccine aluminum adjuvants does not increase risk of any of 50 chronic diseases including autism

How RFK Jr.’s misguided science on mRNA vaccines is shaping policy − a vaccine expert examines the false claims Chaos at the CDC and the sharp move away from mRNA vaccines has public health experts alarmed.

Deborah Fuller, a microbiologist from UWash, wrote this article pointing out many of the false statements made by RFK in his senate hearing yesterday and explaining why they were false.

It’s Not Antisemitic to Say That Israel Is Responsible for the Unfolding Genocide in Gaza The contention that the US is in the driver’s seat with Israel the “cop on the beat” is an old and musty one from the 1990s that has not aged well.

“We can’t allow an endless argument about what is and isn’t antisemitism when it moves us away from confronting the central issue: the question of how to stop a genocide.”

Antisemitism is appalling.
Genocide of Palestinians is appalling.

It’s not complicated.
Never again means never again.

The people who’ve felt the historic weight of oppression see the danger. Does it make more sense now why Trump doesn’t want you learning our history?

Listen to us—because no one walks away safe from a collapsing democracy.

Lots of very high profile UK biologists sign a letter saying that biological sex isn't binary or immutable and that the Supreme Court's ruling is scientifically wrong!

We really need to hammer home how the anti-trans side is anti-science

I spent several months with mental health experts to investigate Autism Spectrum Disorder in North West London. My findings were that Males are diagnosed younger and more than Females, it is not a one-size-fits-all disorder and: any causal relationship claimed by the HHS will be unfounded.

Tumblr acct stimmyabby says:

Sometimes people use "respect" to mean "treating someone like a person," and sometimes they use "respect" to mean "treating someone like an authority."

And sometimes people who are used to being treated like an authority say "if you won't respect me I won't respect you" and mean "if you won't treat me like an authority, I won't treat you like a person"
And they think they're being fair, but they aren't. And that's not okay.

Response from user do-as-your-told:

This is so well put I am stunned

TRUMP AND THE BIG LIE The Dark Connection to Mein Kampf

There is a very dark method in Trump's madness.
It is his use of the big lie to distract and divide his opponents while making cruelty seem like patriotism.
He learned his political stage lessons from the biggest liar in history.

Fantastic response, making it very clear the motives underpinning the "anti-woke" narrative.

Human rights are non-negotiable.

The rush to destroy things like USAID and other agencies before lawsuits can stop them is to make it moot. When our stupidly slow judicial system finally moves to stop them it will be far too late. If all 10,000 USAID employees are home and projects abandoned it’s done. It’s evil.

To be clear, if Trump says he “disagrees with the leadership” in your country and suggest that “something should happen there” then it probably means you’ve got the right kind of leaders. Trump only likes “leaders” that are like him or bend the knee to him.

If he likes yours, pick different ones.

One reason I have so much respect for Rachel is because she is driven by a real understanding of democracy

I’ve heard Rachel talk about her time in Tunisia watching a democracy collapse in real-time before. This is something that shapes her journalism and one of the reasons she’s so fearless

An excellent and doable plan for using Trump's economic warfare to to get us somewhere safer and fairer than where we are right now. We used to call this kind of thinking The Leap. Still works!

It's about Canada but many other countries, in coordination, should respond to this shock in similar ways

this is very clear and very straightforward about what's happening and at some point we also have to start pointing the finger at major news organizations who are flatly - out of bias, out of fear, out of incompetence, whatever - refusing to treat this as the emergency it is
