any chances their fact checkers are going to see any credit?
is there any other "science" show on earth that both misrepresented plain language published from CDC and endorsed a retracted study in the same episode?

this is a first for humanity, and it's so embarrassing
Correction # 1 was a fucking mess
Correction # 2 was even worse
i've spent so much of my week changing Bret Weinstein's diapers.

he's either too gullible to exist in the real world or grifting on an absolutely psychopathic level

i miss the toxic masculinity of the 1990s, it's better than the toxic masculinity of the 2020s

in the 1990s, men were afraid to admit they knew how to use a computer

in the 2020s, men wave their e-dicks around on completely asinine pseudointellectual podcasts

it's weird how we all understand that giving a friend medical or legal advice is often a terrible thing to do.

however, we don't have the same sort of ethics about podcasts or Twitch streams. people just go off and tell a massive audience insane things and nobody blinks
ask yourself - is this person able to represent me in a legal matter or prescribe me something where I live?

if the answer is no, what the fuck are you doing?
if you had to take a grandparent to a doctor, you check credentials.

if you had to get some plumbing done, you check credentials.

but podcasts?

just listen to 10 hours of a botanist insisting that you can save money by just putting duct tape on your toilet, what could go wrong

it's popcorn time, folks! it's happening! 🍿🍿🍿🍿
who is going to get Dave Rubin in the divorce? probably the Weinsteins
Claire Lehmann is amazing, as she'll tweet about how we need to do science slowly and carefully and respect the data, just after she goes on tweetstorms accusing every black woman with long nails of being a steroid user and Olympic cheat

computing is a mistake as it gave men that the false idea that programmers are useful and smart
i have never really met a smart programmer. programmers are just really good at categorization. i'd trust a programmer to sort through my recycling. that's about it
every company in the world understands that they need programmers to sort through the dustbin of technology, but they really don't trust them with any business or creative control, because everyone knows that programmers are daft

it's funny how Quillette / intellectual dark web people think that there is large social stratification caused by huge IQ differential, yet when it comes to questions about science they just let any old fucking idiot ask a question, as if everyone is operating on equal footing
"populations at scale fit a large bell curve of IQ, necessarily implying that billions of people are morons. however, i have proven my worth in this world, as I have graduated fifth place in not pooping my pants at daycare"
if you think standardized testing can tell apart whites and blacks and asians, then you should not only be looking at someone's academic history, you should also look at their ancestry profile, right?

but no, it's always like "MagaPatriot1776 can't be lying about ivermectin!"

imagine spending hours clipping a podcast to include only relevant bits of a claim instead of a bunch of on-air fumbles

and then people that should be paying attention just think you're unfairly editing to make their science daddy look like an idiot

my clips of Bret Weinstein's podcasts are cut up because Heather Heying is always saying 'ummmm', Bret is distracting all guests because he's glancing around the room like a space cadet and they are always fucking around with their MacBook for half the episode
every Bret Weinstein "Dark Horse Podcast" episode is like 3 hours long, and it's an 1 hour of just dead air and then 1 hour of dumb banter and then 1 hour of being insanely wrong and irresponsible

every man with a profile photo with himself playing a guitar is a worthless lazy idiot

change my mind
these dudes are always like "i just put down my Fender to tweet something absolutely fucking dumb about science and politics"
i'm sorry to my mutual followers with guitars in their profile pictures but you were going to find out someday
