Friday Links - 11 November

A slightly abbreviated Links post, as I got tired of reading reactions to the election.

Emperor Misha at The Anti-Idiotarian Rottweiler is up first with Götterdämmerung Isn’t Really What You Should Be Aiming For Here, Volodymyr

We know, it’s never polite or popular to point out facts, particularly when they don’t support what you’d like to see, so please tell us how wrong we are

The Other McCain - A Cliché of a Stereotype: Kathy Griffin and the Pathetic Fate of Liberal Cat Ladies

Which comes first, the liberal politics or the envious bitterness?

It’s one of those chicken-or-the-egg questions of causality that psychologists should spend more time researching.

Again from The Other McCain - Seeking Light Amid the Gloom: Thoughts on the Brain-Damaged Election Results

The College Fix - Embattled Stanford Professor of Medicine Jay Bhattacharya: ‘Academic freedom is dead’

Bhattacharya is a physician, epidemiologist, health economist, and public health policy expert with a focus on infectious diseases and vulnerable populations.

He said the harassment and censorship he faced began largely after he helped write in October 2020 the Great Barrington Declaration, which argued there is a tremendous harm to the poor, the vulnerable and the working class from lockdown-focused policies, and also called for focused protection for older people.
