In any disagreement, the various parties naturally assume that their position is the reasonable one, with everyone else occupying the 'extremes'.

Parents who raised concerns about what was happening at GIDS were dismissed as 'extremists' (and worse) for many years; now their position has been vindicated. The 'extremist' view that something unconscionable was happening is now established fact.

Of course, being proven correct in the past is no guarantee of being correct in future; new claims or concerns must be examined on their merits.

And in science and medicine in particular, it is important to remember that the 'middle' of a range of options is not always the correct solution.

#Vachathi, 1992. Tamil Nadu.

269 forest, police & revenue officials raided a tribal village, claiming to search for smuggled sandalwood & track Veerappan.

They ransacked homes, slaughtered cattle, contaminated wells & assaulted over 100 villagers. 1/n
18 women, including a 13-year-old girl, were gang-raped.

The victims were then arrested, photographed next to sandalwood piles & jailed on fabricated smuggling charges.

No FIR against the officials. A fake FIR was filed against the victims instead. 2/n
The AIADMK govt under Jayalalithaa denied the atrocity. Forest Minister Sengottaiyan defended the officials in the Assembly, calling the villagers smugglers.

Harur Police refused to register a case. 3/n

1/ While the Russia army struggles with the impact of Telegram and Discord being throttled or blocked by the government, Ukraine has long used a highly sophisticated indigenously developed digital command and control system. Russian warbloggers have highlighted the contrast. โฌ‡๏ธ Image
2/ Detailed accounts such as the one in the thread below illustrate how Telegram โ€“ย a commercial app run from Dubai โ€“ย has been a central tool in the Russian kill chain, allowing for rapid responses to Ukrainian actions. Discord was also heavily used.
3/ Although this approach has been effective, it has now deliberately been rendered unusable by the Russian government. 'Two Majors' compares how Ukraine has approached digital command and control, and never made itself reliant on Telegram:

The results of the AR7a renewables auction expose government lies about the cost of renewables and net zero. A thread ๐Ÿงต(1/n) (link to full article in bio) Image
AR7a awarded contracts for 4.9GW of new solar at a clearing price of ยฃ68/MWh (in 2025 prices), 1.3GW of onshore wind at ยฃ75/MWh and a further 21MW of tidal stream capacity. (2/n)
Superficially it looks cheap, leading @Ed_Miliband to claim new onshore wind & solar are 50% cheaper than gas & he is lowering bills. But his claims are based on lies (3/n) Image

1/8 I often wonder WHERE this country would be today had you not been the brave, COURAGEOUS, constitution loving Vice President we DESPERATELY needed at the time. I can only imagine the EXTREME pressure you must have been under to throw the election results for Donald Trump. The
2/8 two choices you were faced with were either commit a crime and use the fraudulent second set of elector certificates as a basis for sending the results back to the states, when you KNEW the first set presented at the Capitol were the VALID certificates, which you KNEW was the
3/8 WRONG thing to do, or ask the Lord for STRENGTH, and adhere to the constitution and do what you KNEW you must do...certify Joseph R. Biden as the winner of the 2020 Presidential election. What ANGERS me more than anything was the tweet Trump sent out basically labeling you a

I once asked a woman with years of experience in female psychology why men always fall into mind games.

She said:

โ€œItโ€™s darker & colder than most men realize.โ€

Here is how she explained:๐Ÿงต

1. The Silent Treatment / Sudden Coldness Test
She stops replying fast, gives one-word answers, goes โ€œofflineโ€ for 12โ€“48 hours after you did nothing wrong.

Goal: Make you panic, chase, apologize, over-explain.

Kill it: Match her energy ร— 2. Go colder.
Post stories looking happy as fuck. When she resurfaces act like you barely noticed.

Reply 24โ€“72 hours later with one line: โ€œBeen busy. You good?โ€

She either chases hard or exposes she was never that invested.
