RT @LetsWATCH0: End of an Era: The last stand of a lion king in the savage reality of the wild

Robert Lustig, médico de California, lleva 20 años diciendo lo que la industria no quiere que sepas: El azúcar no engorda. ENVENENA. Lo ocultaron igual que las tabacaleras ocultaron el cáncer. 6 hábitos que destruyen tu metabolismo: 1. Tomar zumo de fruta creyendo que es sano

This is just absolutely brilliant.

**Both, but domestic policies are the decisive factor.** Canada entered a technical recession (Q4 2025 Q1 2026 GDP contraction per StatCan). No other G7 country did, despite shared global pressures like US tariffs and Middle East shocks. Other G7 nations absorbed similar trade hits and maintained growth. Canada's weakness traces to years of weak business investment, carbon taxes, regulatory burdens, and per-capita stagnation that left the economy uniquely fragile. Global conditions exposed the vulnerabilities; domestic choices created them.

Classic 1980s debate moment. A woman in hijab passionately challenges Rabbi Meir Kahane: “How can you have no compassion for the Arab people?” invoking Hitler and Palestinian suffering. Kahane’s calm, piercing response cuts through: “You had an opportunity for your own state in 1948. The UN proposed partition plan which would have created a Palestine and an Israel. You went to war. You killed 6,000 of our people. ’56, another war. ’67, another war. ’73, another war. I don’t trust you. I don’t believe you. When I’m attacked and I win and you lose, and you’re the one that started it, learn one thing… you take the consequences of your actions.” Raw, unfiltered truth about repeated rejection of peace and the cost of starting wars. No slogans. Just history. Powerful then. Powerful now.

The leader of the Lib Dems, and the leader and deputy leader of the Green party, think some women have penises. In itself, it seems like a relatively unimportant matter. But it is symptomatic of a contempt for science and evidence-based truth. Could you vote for a flat-Earther?

🩷 Unbelievable. Afonso Eulalio keeps the Maglia Rosa, against the odds. 📺 Follow the #Giroditalia on TV, and on socials, wherever you are 🌐

55km/h for 42 kilometres! 😱 Filippo Ganna goes fastest with a crazy average speed at the Giro.

This reminds me of the Carney Liberals because once people buy the “expert adult in the room” story, they start rejecting evidence that the story isn’t working. Credentials become camouflage. Failure becomes “complexity.” Criticism becomes “misinformation.” That’s the bamboozle Sagan warned about: not just being fooled, but defending the people who fooled you.

The humanities were meant to illuminate the human condition and to participate in teaching how to think. They were popular when they delivered. Once they pivoted to social-justice activism, they became useless. Their existential crisis is entirely self-inflicted.

🚨 SILENCED NO MORE: THE REPORT THE WORLD CAN NO LONGER IGNORE A new 300-page report by the Civil Commission on October 7th Crimes by Hamas Against Women and Children documents what so many tried to deny. @theCC07 After a two-year independent investigation, the Commission reviewed more than 10,000 photos and video segments, over 1,800 hours of visual material, and conducted more than 430 interviews, testimonies, and meetings with survivors, witnesses, returned hostages, experts, and families. Its conclusion is clear: It was systematic. It was widespread. It was part of the terror strategy. The victims were never silent. The world was. Now the evidence is on record. Share this. Amplify it.

同情心的边界：Gad Saad 与 Steven Pinker 的温柔碰撞 在X这个现代斗兽场里，@GadSaad和@sapinker最近的交锋，像是一场由进化心理学家和认知心理学家共同主演的“同情心伦理辩论赛”。一位是亲历中东战火、带着生存本能的“现实派犹太大叔”，另一位是西方象牙塔里优雅梳理人类进步曲线的“乐观派绅士”。两人都是聪明人，都信奉理性，却在“同情心到底该有多大”这个问题上，撞出了火花。 Gad Saad 把问题讲得很直白：同情心本是进化给我们的美好礼物，却像一把没装保险的枪，容易“误发射”。当我们对开放边境无限同情时，涌入的可能不只是需要帮助的人，还有带着不兼容文化习惯（比如某些极端伊斯兰主义的不宽容与支配欲）的人。他们把母国的生存逻辑直接搬过来，要求东道主不断退让、不断“理解”。结果呢？本土文化像被温柔稀释的咖啡，慢慢失去原有味道，而最初的同情者发现自己成了“自杀式共情”的受害者。Saad 用他标志性的幽默说，这不是善良，这是“寄生虫式同情”——宿主越热情，寄生虫越开心，直到宿主文明耗尽。 Steven Pinker 则站在另一端，带着他一贯的启蒙主义温情。他相信同情心是人类暴力下降、道德圈扩大的核心引擎。我们应该不断反思、不断深化，把“设身处地”做到极致。只有利他才是真正高尚的，不断强调“我们自己群体利益”听起来就有点道德低劣。他担心攻击“过度同情”会变成给冷酷找借口，人类进步的历史数据也支持：多一点同情，世界往往会更好。 两人的分歧，其实早就写在他们的简历里。 Saad 11岁从黎巴嫩内战中逃出来，亲眼见过课堂上老师喊“杀犹太人”、街头反犹狂欢。他后来成了商学院教授，用进化心理学看消费者行为和群体竞争，天然懂得“成本-收益”和“市场残酷”。他见过火灾，所以总在检查防火墙够不够厚。 Pinker 则在蒙特利尔舒适的中产犹太家庭长大，一路顶尖学术圈：麦吉尔、哈佛、MIT。他用大数据证明人类整体在变好，暴力在下降。同情心在他这里更像一种可扩展的认知能力，而不是需要时刻提防的危险开关。他没见过自家社区被同情耗尽，所以更愿意相信“再多一点善意就行了”。 这不是谁更聪明，而是采样现实不同。一个尝过部落冲突的血腥味，一个在安全实验室里统计长期趋势。Saad 像那个被蜜蜂蛰过的人，看到花丛就先找蜂巢；Pinker 像从未被蛰过的园丁，觉得多浇水花就开得更美。 世界当然是复杂的。它不是童话，也不是纯粹的丛林。人类既需要同情来维系社会，又需要边界来保护自己。无限制的同情像没加刹车的跑车，跑得越快越容易翻车；完全关闭同情则会变成冷血机器，最终连自己都保护不了。真正的智慧，是在“同情”与“理性自保”之间走钢丝：对真正需要帮助的人伸出手，但绝不把自家大门拆了当柴烧；对不兼容的价值观保持警惕，而不是用“理解”两个字自我麻醉。 我站 Saad。不是因为他更“狠”，而是因为他更诚实。在一个资源有限、文化差异真实存在的世界里，同情心必须有界限，否则善良就会变成自杀的许可证。Saad 的警告不是反同情，而是反天真——一种穿上道德外衣的天真。Pinker 的乐观很动人，但现实偶尔会用中东式的残酷提醒我们：不是所有人都在玩同一套启蒙游戏，有些人玩的是零和部落生存。 最后，借用 Saad 式的幽默结尾：下次当你准备把家门钥匙交给“需要帮助的陌生人”之前，不妨先问问自己——他是来取一杯水的，还是来重写你家规矩的？同情心很宝贵，别让它变成文明的安乐死。 世界复杂，边界必要。保持善良，但请带点脑子。

On this day in 1794 the French Republic guillotined Antoine Lavoisier. He had named oxygen, formulated the law of conservation of mass and founded modern chemistry. Appeals were rejected with the line "the Republic has no need of scientists." The next day Lagrange said: "It took only a moment to cause this head to fall, and a hundred years will not suffice to produce its like."

Today is World Donkey Day.

"Est-ce la fatigue, la maturité, ou peut-être simplement un détachement croissant ? Je ne saurais le dire, mais certaines choses ne m’atteignent plus comme autrefois. Ce n’est pas un manque d’intérêt, loin de là. C’est plutôt une volonté de préserver mon énergie pour ce qui compte vraiment. Arrivé à ce point de ma vie, je réalise que rien n’a meilleur goût que la paix intérieure, bien plus précieuse qu’une victoire dans n’importe quelle querelle." Harrison Ford
