The world outside of the West is a very dark place.
The criminals lure good-looking men & women with fake job offers and imprison them, forcing them to send "sweet nothings" and photos to online scam targets The guy who escaped the love scam center had been tortured 1,000+ captives freed in a single bust last year

Good summary of the importance of Joel Mokyr's contribution to the understanding of economic growth, and why that understanding typically eludes the formalized, mathematicized research typical of economists.

Joshua Kushner on his older brother Jared
This is the category-defining profile of one of the most important figures and institutions in American business, investing, and technology. Joshua Kushner and Thrive Capital. Kushner and his partners speak, as do Sam Altman, Jony Ive, Demis Hassabis, and John Collison. It’s a

I’ve been told (haven’t actually listened) that in his Red Scare appearance Fuentes explicitly says his project is to convince people that the left-right divide is fake and the real divide is everyone vs the Jews. Make of that what you will.
Since Oct. 7, the anti-Israel/anti-Trump "right" has explicitly argued that the primary political divide is between those who support Israel and those who do not. According to that framework, the leftists who cheered on Charlie Kirk's death are my friends and Stephen Miller is

I think if they all set themselves on fire, it just might work
🚨 The Democratic Socialists of America’s new statement, “Until Palestinian Liberation,” is one of the most extreme responses to the ceasefire. Instead of welcoming a pause in fighting, DSA treats the truce as meaningless, says “DSA harbors no illusions that Israel will honor

We hate Hezbollah so much that we must continue sending Lebanon $300 million per year* to fund counterintelligence efforts to arrest Lebanese for providing Israel with info on Hezbollah *Not to be confused with the $250 million World Bank loan to rebuild damaged infrastructure
