We know that covid can damage the brain. We don’t know how this will impact society. Governments need to change their pro infection approach to one of actively encouraging vaccines, ffp2 & rolling clean air. Instead of this we are allowing science fact to be obliterated by antiscience.

The rise of Trump has given them permission to be what they always wanted to be and to behave how they always wanted to behave. His entire sales pitch is: you don’t have to pretend any more, you can just say “I’m glad the cops, who represent me, are beating and killing people I hate”.

the thing is, “differing political views” used to be about what percentage to tax high earners and not whether brown people are humans

Everyone has a list of so-called "red flags" when they're dating. And for some, especially younger Americans, different political views is a relationship deal breaker.

Here's a really easy New Year's Resolution:
If you're sick with something contagious, you will stay home if your circumstances allow.

If you can't stay home, you will mask around others until there is no possibility you are contagious.

By making these choices, you will literally save lives.

This is from a symposium of the Worlds leading long covid experts (August 2025) . H/t Charlos on X. This should tell everyone what you need to know. Not one long covid expert without a respirator, no non maskers or gappy surgicals in sight. Experts know it’s airborne and know the health risks.

It's pretty breathtaking when you step back and look at it really. All these dickheads feel they should have license to be total arseholes and you still need to love them regardless.

The messages are just normal and recognisably honest and genuine. Compare that with everything you see from the media and politicians about these transphobic cranks. Transphobia flies against public opinion and public interest.
This is just up the road from me, the bairn was born in this hospital. And this is pretty much exactly how I would expect a group of people from around here to respond, if one of their number started behaving like a weird and unpleasant arsehole for reasons nobody understood.

Quite a lot can be explained by the plain fact that our leaders and their hangers on are *enraged* that they can’t send people to prison for doing things that aren’t illegal, and they see this as a very serious problem that needs to be resolved, urgently.

I again urge you to ask which is more likely: that millions of members of the public have gone insane, or that a comparatively tiny number of people at the heart of media and politics - who all know each other and often work together - have driven *themselves and each other* crazy.

I’m sorry, but it is disgraceful to be an academic who uses this technology to conduct research. It should be prohibited in all of our scholarly institutions, including universities and journals.

Bland doesn’t mean inoffensive. His triangulating, his pandering to Reform policies, his constant lying, his utter emptiness when it comes to principle, his willingness to throw vulnerable people under the bus all contribute to why he is so loathed.
How can this inoffensive man have become so viscerally loathed?
