What's in the actual article: • Musk's dad was an elected official from an anti-apartheid party • Musk's school had an anti-apartheid curriculum • Musk had black friends and was bullied for standing up to racist kids • Musk left home to avoid fighting for an apartheid regime

Elon Musk grew up in elite white communities in South Africa, detached from apartheid’s atrocities and surrounded by anti-Black propaganda. He sees his takeover of Twitter as a free speech win but in his youth did not suffer the effects of misinformation.

The biggest gaslight in San Francisco is the pervasive claim by activists, politicians, and journalists that the overwhelming majority of SF's homeless are from the city. All you have to do to debunk it is go talk to people on the streets, as @shellenberger and I have done.

We just released the full archive of Slack messages and emails between the authors of "Proximal Origin of SARS-CoV-2." The public can judge for themselves whether our reporting was accurate or whether we were, in Kristian Andersen's words, "quote mining."

Not expecting a mea culpa from the "everyone I disagree with is an anti-science nut job" crowd, but it turns out that Gorsuch was *not* wrong, and Sotomayor was *wildly* wrong on Covid numbers.

It's astonishing to me that pundits are reaching all the way back to George McGovern to presume what would happen to Bernie Sanders as a nominee while ignoring the analogy from just 4 years ago of what would happen to another DC insider centrist matched up against Donald Trump.

Amazing. Oakland City Councilmember who led the charge to defund the police is now running as the law and order candidate who "improved officer recruitment."

LOL Taylor Lorenz reported that a Depp-Heard trial YouTuber "earned up to $80,000 last month," not noting that the source she gleaned that figure from actually said he had made "between $4.9k and $79.1k." Kind of a big range there.

These numbers actually don't surprise me that much. Sure, Trump has done a ton to cost him trust (36% sucks), but Biden hasn't done a goddamn thing. It's not like the default is 100% and you go down from there. You actually have to build the trust, by, for instance, campaigning.

Just to be clear: the tweet on the left is harassment. The one on the right is accountability.

Last week, a family in California's Central Valley was massacred in their home. Among the victims was a 10 month-old baby, along with his teenage mother. The level of violence suggests a cartel hit. If true, then America may be entering a new reality.
