I've had numerous loony nutjobs claim to have disproved science they'd never even understood in the first place. At least most of the time they're engineers - they are at least close to science. Today it was a fucking clarinetist... 🙄 Terrence Howard 2.0

And the "ground-breaking discovery" is self-published as "papers". Of course... 🤣😂😅😆😁😄😃😀🙂🤨😕🙁☹️😢😭😭😭😭

The probability that someone publicly declares "I like to think for myself" on the Internet (especially if it's in a Twitter bio) is inversely proportional to the probability that they are actually good at thinking. For themselves and just in general.

There is an account running ads around here. I have it blocked. I have it muted. I keep getting its ads. I repeatedly flag them as unwanted. I keep getting them... 🙄 Thanks El0n!

1. US constitution clearly states only Congress can declare war. 2. This war on Iran is clearly, OBVIOUSLY illegal. 3. Soldiers have a duty to disobey obviously illegal orders. 4. Every single US soldier involved in this is a war criminal.

‼ “Теменужка Петкова” е най-тежката финансова криза за последните 30 години в България. Кабинетът “Желязков” оставя държавната хазна с РЕКОРДЕН МИНУС. ‼ -900 МИЛИОНА ЕВРО ДЕФИЦИТ! Още през февруари 2026. Каквито и кризи да сме преживявали (финансова, банкова, ковид, война, ембарго), НИКОГА държавата не е била в толкова тежко финансово състояние още в началото на годината. Когато финансов министър бърка приход с разход - няма как да очакваме друго! Все едно готвач да не прави разлика между сол и захар. ‼ За сравнение: през февруари 2024 г., когато публичните финанси се управляваха от “лошия” Асен Василев, държавата завърши месеца с +508 милиона евро излишък. Излишък. При това значим. Тогава ни обясняваха как държавата потъва. Дългова спирала и всякакви други глупости. Днес – мълчат. Крият се като мишки. Къде са Борисов, Пеевски, Делян Добрев, Теменужка Петкова? Трябва да дадат обяснение къде са парите на хората! ‼ Ето за това взривихме бюджетна комисия. ‼ Заради заложените дългове и бедност за всички български граждани. Успяхме с протеста. Сега не трябва да допускаме повече до властта прасета, тикви и зелени чорапи.

Some conspiracy theories are true. The world actually is run by a cabal of pedophile elites who protect each other and control the deep state to hide their crimes.

When the prices are in the currency of blood and suffering, you can't just draw the line and say who is more guilty, who are the bad ones and who are the victims. Everyone is bad! Everyone is a victim! Blood prices are paid by EVERYONE!

A fake account of Vivek Ramasalami liked my comment calling the verified Vivek evil... 🤨 I reported the fake account as such. Principles. On the left we have them.

How to be an anti vaxxer 1) Make some crazy stuff up to make vaccines sound as bad as possible. 2) Post it online Yeah that's it. Works really well, unfortunately.

If everyone is an entrepreneur, who's gonna do the actual work? Yes, we need innovators and entrepreneurs, sure. But we need many more people to just do the actual labour AND BE ADEQUATELY REWARDED FOR THEIR WORK!
