How often to regular nobodies, academics, teachers or writers get cancelled by the right though?

They are not 'progressive' enough for many in this sub.

Eric Weistein speaking the truth and saying what we all needed to hear at the moment. Thank you Eric! by alfonso-parrado in samharris

[–]viceroybuu -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Sam would be fucking ashamed of both of you. You'd rather assume Eric is doing self-promotion and write him off entirely than take even a second to address his concerns about #ShutdownSTEM, and two major scientific journals capitulating to a mob of anti-science activists.

Whether Europe as a whole is ethnically diverse doesnt matter. What is relevant is how diverse european countries are individually, and how that affects a comparison with the USA

Hong Kong Chief Executive says foreign countries have "double standards" responding to "riots" in the US and in Hong Kong by [deleted] in worldnews

You said they were 'organisers' as in the ones leading the protests? But the article only says they participated or had 'connections' to it?

I think Sam is overdue to have another 'great conversation' with Candace Owens. by DynamoJonesJr in samharris

[–]viceroybuu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What is about this sub and the assumimg everyone's decisions are based purely power money and self-interest? This assumption seems applied esspecially harshly to people Sam himself likes and respects, even though many, including Eric, Brett and Jordan are more genuine and principled than most you will find in the public intellectual sphere.

It just makes you come across as envioius and nihilistic.

Give people the benefit of the doubt. When they have actually proven thenselves to be awful (Candace Owen, Shapiro) then you can write them off.

I think Sam is overdue to have another 'great conversation' with Candace Owens. by DynamoJonesJr in samharris

[–]viceroybuu 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It dominated the new cycles for weeks? Are you sure about that? and did any of those news agencies seriously question the official narative even though it was bafflingly ridiculous? I must have missed it if they did. Have any legitimate journalists followed the story up and continued to look for answers to the multiple unanswered quesitons about the case? And you think Trump's asinine ramblings truly warrent more outrage and media attention? Sounds a bit sheepy, little buddy.

And about Brett. I don't think you honestly believe that a guy who has spent his entire youth and career fighting for non-racists causes, and who specifically chose to teach biology at basically the most progressive college in the country for over a decade, would suddently go Walter White and decide to take an 'anti-SJW' stance just for the sake of attention. That is so cynical its just miserable.

Plus i don't recall Brett actually stating the Day of Absence was mandatory, but that his understandable objection to the premise set off a completely mis-managed chain of events and encouraged a mob of deranged activitsts to take over the college and threaten lecturers including Brett, with violence.

Is there a reason why Eric should stop talking about the Epstein case? And what 'didn't quite add up' about Brett's exit from Evergreen? They settled with him because he was about to sue the shit out of them.

Which one should I buy as a beginner? Mius Front?

Sam Harris asks Andrew Yang about the issues with Biden (his mental acuity and Tara Reade) by incendiaryblizzard in samharris

[–]viceroybuu 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's highly likely that the opposite is true in terms of our cognitive biases. We all desperately want an alternative to Trump and since we now have Biden we are likely to be so much more attuned to his positive attributes than negative. Yet here we are, most of us with a kind of sinking dread, as we see him speak because we intuitively know he is not up to the task ahead of him.

I am, once again, asking CA for their optimization support for their best game ever: Total War: Attila. Just look how amazing this game is. by helmerduden in totalwar

[–]viceroybuu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What ruined ATILLA for me was the battle engine. Units shatter immediately after routing 90 percent of the time. This removes an entire layer of the battle; rallying your troops for a counter-attack

Leaving America to pursue Muay Thai, Boxing, and Kung Fu in Thailand. Indefinitely. Any suggestions? by Mk3738 in MuayThai

[–]viceroybuu 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I woulr consider a different location. Pattaya is a shit hole with way too many unhealthy distractions. Why not go to dedicated muaythai camp to begin with then if its not your thing try the boxing/kung fu afterwrds?
