One thing I think about is how flat-earth types could convince themselves, without having to trust anyone, their model of the earth is wrong. I don't think the earth is flat, but it is an interesting problem in #epistemology.
A model needs to explain observations if it is to be believed.

"The Tax Foundation is a veteran anti-tax campaign organization from the United States. It has been around since 1937 when it was founded by top brass from companies such as Standard Oil and General Motors. Close links to some of the biggest corporations in the US has been a constant feature of the organization, as has its political aim of bringing down taxes"

My favourite thing about iDubbbz bringing Content Cop/Deputy back and on H3 is that through pure habit of contrarianism the Sam Hyde fans have to vouch for Ethan Klein of all people.

"Malgré des semaines de couverture médiatique négative, des déportations très médiatisées de migrants et d'étudiants munis de visas, et une décision négative de la Cour suprême, l'immigration reste le dossier le plus populaire de M. Trump : 47 % l'approuvent, tandis que 51 % le désapprouvent, selon un sondage New York Times/Siena College réalisé ce mois-ci."

I keep seeing smart people writing stuff like
> [the US] kept peace through strength balanced with restraint, and wielded influence through culture, values, and diplomacy
I understand that #Trump is terrible and some people feel tempted to idealize what they had before him, but we should be more discerning, or otherwise it becomes impossible to understand how this happened in the first place.
Let's start with some questions:
- peace where? and for who? was it true peace, or "Pax Romana"?
- are we going to take seriously that statement on "restraint"? after all the lies, internal witch hunting, sanctions, coups, wars, invasions, genocides, and last but not least, 2 unnecessary nuclear strikes on Japan?
Now, on "culture, values, and diplomacy". Sure. Why not. Not everything was going to be bad, right?
But the thing is, abusive husbands aren't bad all the time either. From time to time they know how to be sweet and seem to care: one present here, flowers the next day, a little bit of gaslighting, and fake apologies after that "accidental" slap.
Given enough time (if the wife is still alive), at some point the victim decides to leave, and then all hell breaks loose. Trump is the manifestation of that moment. He does not represent a change in #USA's nature, but a hidden side that was "always" there, just waiting to play its role.
Others believe this is because #US citizens have been intentionally dumbed down by a combination of propaganda and a disfunctional education system, and I'm sure it's partly true... But let's see what many of their most brilliant and educated citizens are choosing to do with their lives today: https://sfstandard.com/2025/03/12/stanford-students-want-in-on-the-military-tech-gold-rush/
So, all I'm asking is: please drop the act. It was always a clusterfuck.

"The most effective countermeasure is simple: tariffs for oligarchs. Countries should tie market access for foreign multinationals and billionaires to fair taxation. As soon as Trump follows through with tariffs on Canada and Mexico, those countries should retaliate by taxing US oligarchs."

PSA: Do you have a carbon monoxide detector in your home? Do you have more than one (think redundancy)? Does it have a fresh battery (or lifetime battery)? Have you tested the alarm function recently?
If you have appliances that may create carbon monoxide, or an attached garage, now is a good time to check all of the above.
