I agree. Sue the hell out of a few of these morons, and either they’ll smarten up, or be replaced by non-morons.

The Left’s Attack On Brandon Eich
It was totalitarian, and a perfect example of “liberal” fascism.
Sleep Deprivation
Does it partially explain the high failure rate of tech start ups?
SpaceX prides itself on its Silicon Valley culture. I hope they’re not driving people to the point at which they have an accident.
The Silicon Valley Bubble
Mozilla was almost certainly too insular to anticipate the firefox firestorm that may be about to hit them.
Brandon Eich And Hillary Clinton
Andrew Sullivan contrasts and compares:
Has either Hillary Clinton or Bill Clinton ever expressed sorrow that they hurt so many lives, gave cover to some of the vilest homophobes, and credentialized themselves with some on the right by rank homophobia in the 1996 campaign? Not to my knowledge. They have regretted what they did but never taken full moral responsibility for the hurt and pain they caused.
Don’t hold your breath waiting for them to do so.
Marlon Brando
A perspective, from Mark Steyn.
The Warm Mongers’ Con Game
It continues, but the marks aren’t falling for it any more.
No, Lewandowsky Minions
There were no “threats” against Frontiers In Psychology. They retracted the paper because it was crap.
Steve Goddard Explains
“Why I do this”:
I have been an active environmentalist for almost my entire life. At age 16 I testified before a Congressional hearing in support of a proposed wilderness area in Utah. I worked to get the Clean Air Act passed, and worked for two summers as a wilderness ranger in New Mexico. I do all of my local transport and shopping by bicycle, and buy almost exclusively organic and free range food.
The reason I blog is because catastrophic global warming is junk science, used by unscrupulous people for unscrupulous political and financial purposes. It keeps environmentalists from doing anything useful, and provides progressives an excuse to push toward totalitarianism.
The global warming scam needs to be stopped. It has spiraled completely out of control, and no longer has any pretense of science behind the lies.
Pretty much, yeah.
Terrible Nutrition Advice
The top five worst.
I agree with all of them. Eating fat doesn’t make you fat, eating cholesterol doesn’t increase your cholesterol, stick with saturated fat (not just butter, but egg yolks, and animal fats), not seed oils, and stop counting calories. Just eat what’s good for you, and avoid what’s bad.
This is even more junk science than climate science (and as I’ve noted in the past, this kind of nonsense probably killed my father in the late seventies). As I’ve also noted in the past, science that has public consequences tends to become politicized.
