Journals that published Richard Lynn's racist 'research' articles should retract them Richard Lynn's work has been repeatedly condemned for using flawed methodology and deceptively collated data to support racism. It's past time to retract the studies.

Semi-regular reminder that national IQ studies are pure white supremacist trash

Waaaaaaaooww!

This unbelievable microscopic image taken by Hans Kerp is of an early land plant from ~409 million years ago. Exquisite preservation in Scottish sandstone (Rhynie Chert) reveals sperm cells (upper right) released on a fateful day by the “antheridium.” The paper: pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC...

Doing talks at universities designed to cause outrage has been part of the far-right playbook since the 1960s when American Nazi George Lincoln Rockwell did it. The point is to cause an outcry from progressive students and therefore get coverage and sympathy because the “evil students” were mean!

Anti zionists are too peaceful thats why.

Not just murder of Palestinians but all non zionists.

Reposting this old thread on the "Pervasive findings of directional selection" from ancient DNA. While the authors extended their results in various ways, I think many of these points still stand.

This is an excellent #critique of the Akbari, Reich et al. paper by Graham and the members of his lab. It clearly explains why Sasha made his "leap of faith" comment in @nytimes.com writeup by @carlzimmer.com #BioMed

Real talk Linux would fall apart overnight if trans women suddenly disappeared one day

The fact that Mamdani just seems like a cheerful normal guy who's policies are things like "we're going to tax second homes to fund pothole repairs" or whatever and yet this generates panicked responses like "This is basically Stalin's great purge turned up to eleven" is... telling. It tells things.

How about no, and you can go fuck yourself.

The entire state has brought it on itself. Israeli society is deeply racist and genocidal.

#C4News last night reported on the wholesale targeting of ambulances & paramedics in Lebanon by Israel, including the recent 'triple hit', when Israel attacked an ambulance, then attacked paramedics who went to help, and then attacked further paramedics also trying to help.

Congrats on “opening” a strait that was open six weeks ago, and all it cost was at least 13 dead service members, thousands of dead Iranian civilians, tens of billions in taxpayer dollars, our loss in global standing, and the Iranian regime’s increase in power. Phenomenal work.

Biden helped commit genocide in Gaza.

They are poor because of US sanctions and blockade.

Vladimir Putin:

​"If Russia had done only 10% of what Israel has done in Gaza, NATO would be at the gates of Moscow by now.

​The West has taught us that human rights begin and end at the borders of Israel's interests."

It appears so 🤬🤬🤬😢

I guess with race science discourse still percolating, I should re-up my starter pack for people who work on the topic

The Democrats are not the answer to the troglodyte right wing.

An ICE agent shot and killed Ruben Ray Martinez, a US citizen and San Antonio resident, in March 2025. Then ICE and the Texas Department of Public Safety covered it up. He was 23 years old. I am calling for a full investigation into this shooting, including why there was an 8-month cover up.

If you actually hate Elon Musk the way he needs to be hated you'd be saying whateveryou need to to get selected first

fellow leftists: when someone says to a politician "why are you not keeping to your campaign promises?" it doesn't help to go "lol did you really expect them to?" bc often the answer is no. they didn't. they're just trying to invoke some public accountability. stop being jerks.

Its not because they were chickenshit. Its because they wanted it, they are ontologically evil. Stop giving these scum excuses.

Really sucks that way back in 2015 when Claire Lehmann started Quillette, she was all over old ‘Human Bio-Diversity’ (HBD) (the rebranding of ‘race realist’) blogs about how Black people are inherently stupid, and this reactionary shtick continued literally every day for the next ten goddamn years

You are a cool guy Will.

No, since Palestine are the good guys.
