But I must say that there are couple of other factors that led to extinction as well. Climate change is a major cause too. I would leave this contentious topic to the evolutionary biologists who would state this better - a multi-causal approach. www.unsw.edu.au/newsroom/new...

The Bible talks about Noah and his ark and how they seemed to save all animals of the world. A lie. Early humans were responsible for the death and destruction of a huge chunk of megafauna, though some scholars dispute that. Many were driven into extinction as we became the apex of the food web.

It happened eventually. My point is all of this could have been avoided. A situation was created, exacerbated and led to the culmination of such events. It’s only the other side that fails to acknowledge such events.

When people come out of religions, it’s a new awakening for everyone. You step out of a tight frame. You begin to ask questions. You realise that morality didn’t collapse the moment you came out of religion. You see the world in a new light, driven by scientific discoveries and not pre-scripted.

Karoline Leavitt is to integrity as Herschel Walker is to intellectualism.

The online anti-South Asian tirade on X continues. Polymarket Traders jumped the gun by calling Indians as “j**ts”, a highly offensive word that originated from a far-right forum, 4chan. The aspect of being an impostor is different, but calling names is absolutely intolerable.

Something we can’t deny. That we are mainly responsible for extinction of the Australian and American terrestrial megafauna.

The world economy depends on the dollar. Unless BRICS comes up with their currency, but that won’t come up anyway. Therefore, every non-American should know about what’s happening, because it’s somehow intricately linked to the country’s affairs.

What was the need to intervene in Syria, in the first place? It was a stable country, but agreed there were issues on certain communities like the Kurds not getting the right to citizenship. The dictum: overthrow stable governments, get a more unstable region.

The country of Syria is dead, unfortunately. It was stable, all this while, till the “revolution” and then ethnic harmony took a backseat. Every foreign power, who was involved in the removal of Assad, is responsible for all the carnage that is happening. www.arabnews.com/node/2623708...

I feel like I HAVE TO say this: Donald Trump is reigning havoc. He needs Americans miserable through the holidays. His word means nothing. No one is so afraid of him now as its clear Trump will forever be a miserable note in history. He. Is. Hated. Happy Thanksgiving MF.

Hate has permeated certain sections of other societies, in this case — the Japanese. So-called MAGA has influenced far-right Japanese to start their hatred politics against foreigners, even though they’re so little. Here is an influencer who claims to be Japanese.

The eruption of Hayli Gubbi volcano in Ethiopia, after lying dormant for about 12,000 years (first recorded eruption in the Holocene epoch). A plume of ash was formed and carried by winds to the Middle East and South Asia, leading to cancellation of flights www.discovermagazine.com/an-ethiopian...

The garbage known as DOGE doesn’t exist. Pyrrhic victory? Well, they gutted the USAID and stole millions of credentials. Department of Government Efficiency… I knew they would collapse. That’s why empty vessels make much noise. www.reuters.com/world/us/dog...

Hate has become so normalized on X such that even its founder agrees with Bukele (known for his despotic and fascist regime, who inaugurated the CECOT). That prison houses many humans stacked together like grapes. Most grotesque manners are celebrated. Does this ring a bell with “Camp of Saints”?

A lively example on X. Mocking certain communities. One reason to understand is these are nations with abysmally low GDP per capita. They’re in poverty. They need help. That’s why, they resort to methods, even if illicit, to earn some money to feed their families. And then they’re mocked.

Whatever it is, they come from the same far-right supremacist ideologies.

Certain words can hurt. It includes the outdated, offensive term, “retard”. But this word is used left, right and center on X. It’s unfortunately normalised. No one should be called out using the r-word. meridian.allenpress.com/idd/article-... www.globaldownsyndrome.org/about-down-s...

Here’s another from the cesspool of X. Valentina Gomez — running as a candidate for the Congress. This is a person who goes on spewing hate against many people and communities. Here she goes to a church and calls it “pedophile”, because they accept LGBTQIA+ as believers. See the amount of hatred

Agreed. Ukraine is left alone to just…. die.

The Gaza peace deal is nothing for the Palestinians. They continue to die daily, with repeated ceasefire violations. The Ukraine peace deal rewards the aggressor.

One of the far-right influencer on X, Alex Jones. A common thread connecting all of them and the so-called MAGA movement is “anti-vaccination”. Some of them, including disgraced doctors, participate in this nonsense. Spurious propagandas are produced to mislead the public. Who dies? The child.

The only downside is the anonymity of genuine accounts are exposed. They’re even more exposed, which could be later used for doxxing, active surveillance or harassment. That would surely propel them to move out of X.

The Day of Rope is symbolised here — taken from the book “Turner Diaries”, a favorite of far-rights (written by a neo-Nazi). This is an apocalyptic situation where a far-right White paramilitary organisation overthrows the government and mass executes non-Whites. The gallows represent that.

What are some of the common ideologies held by users on X? The average user is exposed to… 1. Conspiracy theories. 2. Hate towards vulnerable minorities and sexual orientations (LGBTQIA+). 3. Antisemitism, Anti-Black ideologies. 4. Religious extremism. 5. Pseudoscience. Stone Age times? Indeed.

Hope more people come out of X, which is a cesspool of literal garbage, and come to Bluesky. www.nature.com/articles/d41...

Then January 6th riots?

ICE unfortunately represents tyranny and terror for the vulnerable communities. If one has to address the legality of non-citizens, then it should go to helping the Latin American nations with aid and assistance. Help them in providing jobs and education. But heck, the USAID is gutted right?

Russia has unfortunately all the cards now. If this deal were to go through, Russia is the clear winner of the war. Sanctions gone, new investment funds in Russia, more occupied territories, while Ukraine would be reeling from destruction and lack of a durable security guarantee.

Why X has become the mainstream 4chan? As an X user from March 2018, I viewed it as a personal diary, jotting down my thoughts and expressions, as it gave birth spontaneously in my mind. I longed for getting verified and sporting the blue checkmark, as as a personal laurel.

The Free Birth Society is similar in nature to the Children Health Foundation. Both harm health. One is misogynist and anti-woman. The other is anti-child and anti-vaxxer. The society has a long way to go to accept science, as part of everyday life. www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle...

X has become the new 4chan. The new normal. Wrote an article on Substack. open.substack.com/pub/vince01m...

“If you are emotionally attached to your tribe, religion or political leaning to the point that truth and justice become secondary considerations, your education is useless. Your exposure is useless. If you cannot reason beyond petty sentiments, you are a liability to mankind.” - Chuba Okadigbo.

Why I don’t think enabling location feature for all accounts is wise on X/Twitter. An X user here, new to Bluesky. Twitter was conceived with the purpose that everyone around the world could talk openly about various issues. It was like a people’s forum back then.

viral tweets on twitter every week about how bluesky is worse than twitter only for ppl to keep migrating here anyway
