I think possibly the best thing about Elon Musk becoming a trillionaire is how angry it makes a bunch of losers who've never built a thing in their lives.

Vi svikter barna vĂ„re. NĂ„r skal en politiker bli modig nok til Ă„ si at dette MÅ reverseres ved at voldskulturer repatrieres?
Swedish father: "My son has been robbed 3 times. Twice by Somalis, once by Arabs. He's 19 and marked for life. He doesn’t dare to go out on his own anymore. If I had a daughter, I’d follow her around with a loaded gun to protect her." No one should have to live like this.

This is pretty awesome. Basically, they're creating a whole journal that's dedicated to post-publication peer review: criticizing papers after they're published in another venue. A lot of papers need this because so many are horrendously bad. I hope this succeeds!
ANNOUNCEMENT: WE’RE SAVING SCIENCE! We’re often told that science is “self-correcting.” But that’s not really true. Science doesn’t correct itself like a thermostat adjusting the temperature in your house. Science is a human institution run by human beings. And human beings are vulnerable to career incentives, groupthink, moral fads, political pressure, and fear. And when those forces capture academic journals, peer review stops being a filter for bad ideas and starts becoming more of a credentialing system for fashionable nonsense. This isn’t exactly new. In 1996, the physicist Alan Sokal managed to publish a totally gibberish article in the journal Social Text full of trendy postmodern jargon. His point was simple: if you flatter the ideological commitments of certain academic editors, nonsense can pass as real scholarship. Two decades later, @ConceptualJames, @HPluckrose , and @peterboghossian pulled off the “grievance studies” hoax, placing over a half dozen absurd papers in peer-reviewed journals. One paper used dog parks to analyze rape culture and queer performativity. Another rewrote parts of Mein Kampf in the language of feminist theory. The problem wasn’t just that fake papers got published. It was that they were completely indistinguishable from the real thing. And today, the problem is even worse. We now have serious SCIENCE journals publishing papers about feminist lesbians marrying brine shrimp. We have disturbing papers that aim to “queer” and sexualize infants. We have scholarship on “lesbian-queer-trans-canine relationalities” and “trans-dog intimacies.” But while Clown World papers are concerning because it makes a complete mockery of academia, the same broken, ideologically captured system is also publishing research in legitimate science and medical journals that pushes sex and gender pseudoscience, relies on deeply flawed data, and influences policies on the medical transition of children and young adults. That’s not funny. That affects real people. It affects medicine. It affects law. It affects children. And when critics try to respond, they often discover there’s no serious mechanism for correction. Submitted Letters to the Editor often go completely ignored. Contrary evidence is rejected without comment. As a result, the best critiques are often relegated to personal blog posts, social media threads, or newspaper op-eds, while the original paper remains in the literature wearing the armor of “peer review.” That is untenable. So Kevin McCaffree, editor-in-chief of Theory and Society (@Theory_Society), and I decided to do something about it. Today, in the Wall Street Journal, we announced a first-of-its-kind article type called “Peer Review.” The idea is simple: publication should be the beginning of academic scrutiny, not the end of it. A Peer Review article can critique a paper from any scholarly journal. It can address problems with methods, evidence, logic, definitions, theory, or interpretation. But it has to focus on the claims and arguments, not personal attacks. Submissions are capped at 2,500 words and go through a straightforward merit review instead of endless gatekeeping and ideological screening. We ask just one basic question: Is this critique coherent, serious, reasonable, or even popular enough to deserve scholarly attention? If yes, it gets published. And the authors of the original paper get a built-in right of reply, so readers can see the critique and the response in a legitimate academic venue. That’s how science is supposed to work. Science becomes self-correcting only when real people build the mechanisms that allow correction to happen. That’s what we’ve done. Now it’s time for academics to use it.

The moment the West decided evidence no longer mattered — if it got in the way of utopia. Melanie Phillips (former Guardian journalist): “Objective evidence was cast aside because it was too inconvenient. The very idea of reason and rationality was dismissed. All these ideologies — multiculturalism, lifestyle choice, deep green environmentalism, moral relativism — were utopian. They promised perfection. Anyone who brought facts against them wasn’t just wrong
 they were evil.” Result? - Evidence became “right-wing” - Dissenters were bullied, ostracized, fired, threatened - The Guardian itself became the heart of this ideological machine
 until she fell foul of it. When ideology is sacrosanct and the world must be perfected, facts become the enemy — and truth-tellers become heretics. Have you watched this shift in real time — where inconvenient evidence gets labeled “hate” or “misinformation”? Which sacred ideology do you think has done the most damage to open debate? Your honest take 👇

The immigrants that cost us the most, also commit the most severe violence. The Danish state is funding them staying here, so in a way the state is funding this violence.

HØFLIGE LØGNE HAR BRAGT EUROPA I KNÆ! I gĂ„r var jeg i DRs Debatten, og det slog mig endnu en gang, hvor allergisk den offentlige debat er over for enhver ĂŠrlig beskrivelse af, hvad islamisk masseindvandring gĂžr ved et land. Den offentlige debat i Danmark er provinsiel og uden blik for de katastrofale forskydninger, der udspiller sig i resten af Vesteuropa, hvor hele bydele forvandles, den sociale tillid smuldrer, kriminaliteten eksploderer og de europĂŠiske folk vĂŠnnes til at leve som fremmede i deres egne lande. Alligevel er der stadig prominente folk herhjemme - eksempelvis kulturminister Jakob Engel-Schmidt og hans parti - der taler, som om den stĂžrste trussel ikke er udviklingen, men sproget og italesĂŠttelsen hos dem, der beskriver den. Men et samfund gĂ„r ikke under, fordi nogen taler for direkte om problemerne. Et samfund gĂ„r under, nĂ„r vi lukker Ăžjnene for Ă„benlyse problemer - og nĂ„r lĂžgnen bliver mere acceptabel end sandheden. Og lĂžgnen har i Ă„revis vĂŠret den samme: At kultur er underordnet. At alle normer kan leve side om side uden konflikt. At Danmark uden videre kan absorbere store befolkningsgrupper fra kulturer, der pĂ„ afgĂžrende punkter stĂ„r i modsĂŠtning til vores egne vĂŠrdier, og stadig forblive det grundlĂŠggende samme land. Det er ikke humanisme. Det er selvudslettende selvbedrag. Et samfund og land hĂŠnger ikke kun sammen pĂ„ love og paragraffer. Det hĂŠnger sammen pĂ„ noget dybere: fĂŠlles normer, fĂŠlles historiske erfaringer, fĂŠlles forstĂ„elser af ret og pligt. Kultur er selve bagtĂŠppet for, hvordan mennesker ser pĂ„ verden, opdrager deres bĂžrn, mĂžder autoriteter og forstĂ„r frihed, ansvar og fĂŠllesskab. VelfĂŠrd oplĂžser ikke kulturelle forskelle. Statslig integration skaber ikke automatisk loyalitet over for danske vĂŠrdier, dansk retsbevidsthed, kultur eller dansk sammenhĂŠngskraft. Alligevel bliver man stadig angrebet og mĂždt med de sĂŠdvanlige besvĂŠrgelser - tone og anstĂŠndighed - nĂ„r man pĂ„peger det Ă„benlyse; At den massive islamiske indvandring gennem de seneste 30-40 Ă„r ikke har vĂŠret en gevinst, men en strukturel katastrofe. Jeg nĂŠgter at skamme mig over at forsvare Danmark, og jeg nĂŠgter at kalde oplĂžsning for tolerance. Vi skal ikke mistĂŠnkeliggĂžre legitime bekymringer, mens ligegyldighed over for landets fremtid kaldes anstĂŠndighed. Danmark skal ikke undskylde for at ville forblive Danmark đŸ‡©đŸ‡°!
