I didn't think it was possible for me to think even less of Kendi as an intellectual than I already did, but then I watched this.
@DrIbram
Kendi chastises Columbus cops for shooting a girl threatening to stab two others: “What would have happened” if the attacker had instead been rich and white?

It's perfectly logical:
1. The criterion for strength is having conquered the world.
2. No one has ever conquered the world.
Therefore,
3. Strength has never existed, and is an illusory idea.

Is this intended as satire?
Some privileged white women got punched in the face in NYC by Black men & the far right is pissed about it.
You all used to whip Black people & had no problem with that, but suddenly it's an issue when a white slave owner's descendant gets some karma on behalf of her ancestors?!

While I think the cardiologist is probably right, his opinion and mine don't actually prove anything. And your statement about AstraZeneca is wrong - it also gives the body instructions on building the spike protein.

I'm sure this will get framed as a "conspiracy theory", but this is a clear case of media bias, in this case because of a small group of highly motivated activists.

Worst. Public Health. Messaging. Ever.
I feel like there is this perception that once we have a
#CoronavirusVaccine
life will go back to normal.
Life will not be like it was pre-COVID. Even after we have a
#vaccine
you will still need to use good hand hygiene, maintain physical distance, avoid crowds and wear masks

The difference between Austrian and British people, is that British people doing this would know they were being silly.
An Austrian Tongue Choir from the Alps region of Tyrol sings ‘Moscow Nights’ with their tongue in a 1982 performance.
If not for the Internet, we’d never know music videos like this existed.

This is laughable. The disagreement isn't about whether it's ok to subject others to abuse and harassment, and holding KT to her own standards, you'd have to conclude she's more abusive than Jesse.
