One thing I know: we have to figure out a way to increase public shame, not only towards apathy, but towards a lack of intellectual integrity— people not caring whether what they believe is true. Proud ignorance and proud indifference should be shamed, not celebrated.

I've said it before, and I'll repeat it: The expulsion of expertise from government and academia during Mao's Cultural Revolution devastated China for decades, particularly in science and technology. That profound harm led the country to take education as seriously as it does today. wapo.st/3YTivKW

It's tough to refer to someone as a criminal if you've given them no due process to determine whether they're a criminal. Like if you get arrested and get a trial and are convicted of 34 felony counts. That's due process. You can call that guy a criminal.
