The multitude of passionately, and casually, expressed desires and fantasies unleashed by the event that transpired at 1335 6th Ave on Dec 4, 2024 are symptoms of a socioeconomic illness in sore need of meaningful treatment toward a cure.
No one living a healthy life in a supportive society actually wants violence to occur.
A neat short video of Daniel Kish talking about and demonstrating his echolocation technique.

Tim Urban put his established "accessible intellectual blogger" credibility behind some truly convincing pro-Musk propaganda pieces on Wait But Why back in ~2015 or so, which at the time were inspiring and felt very believable for people searching for signs of an improving future.

It's just...autocratic. Have you read The Dictator's Handbook by Bueno de Mesquita and Smith? It's a very illuminating reference and eschews the entire argument of "left vs right" in favor of a ruling-coalition size relative to the ruled population model and it appears to be quite accurate in predicting and explaining the behavior of politicians and rulers, Hitler included.
