Heart disease is grossly overrepresented because the default cause of death is “cardiac arrest”. This is because that the definition of death is heart stoppage in most states. So if a doc doesn’t know the actual cause, that’s what they write down.

Allies are dying today. Someone could help save them and you are talking them out of it?

Defending an ally from an enemy is not something the US government punishes people for. If you want to help the people of Ukraine then #standwithukraine.

You might be a giver looking for another giver to build something bigger together. It isn’t correct that givers only want takers. Think of it like cofounders.

There aren't any. The legion of SJWs and progressive use of government bans are totally made-up things.

Propaganda has been very strong the last few years, and people feel like defending racism is actually some sort of legitimate fight because they actually believe that things like Antifa, Social-Justice-Warriors, and government bans initiated by progressives are real organized things. They are invented ideas and tools used by propagandists to keep people divided and working against the interests of other Americans.

Freedom of speech does not mean freedom from responsibility when your speech offends someone.

Progressives aren’t stopping you from reading racist books to your children.... just don’t expect most people to want to sell them to you or pat you on the back for making the next generation toxic against fellow citizens.

If you had a category for typing under the influence, I would suggest including The Naked Lunch.

It is fair to say that using your cognition to measure your own cognitive decline is unreliable ;-)

Almost all people are employed by companies. If companies don’t advocate for human rights that means that almost noone will except for politicians and the unemployed.

We should expect more civil responsibility from companies since they have a strong influence over the time, speech, health, purchasing-power, and labor of nearly all citizens.

As we learn more about neural networks, I predict that we'll hit new advances in psychology and psychiatry.

If one oversimplifies neural networks and thinks of them as pattern-matching machines, it would make sense that our brain's neural network would have trouble if they were fed a lifetime of bad training data (abusive childhood/relationships) and therefore had bad/nonconstructive reactions to normal stimuli.
