    I got a chuckle out of this one.

    Musk has done us a great service by shedding light on the industrial pact with government.

    it’s truly amazing that news organizations haven’t picked it up at this point. This shouldn’t be political. The FBI was recommending deletions of speech.

    ponder that. The FBI was recommending deletions of speech. And the majority of the country is on snooze.

    We may have jumped the shark.  The powers that be have figured out that even if the truth comes out, and it is really really bad…people just don’t care.

    Saw this. It’s a fascinating compilation and actually quite useful.

    It’s interesting to see that some of the inventions of the academic left like “trigger warning” are now on the speech code.

    First person that calls me “They” out of courtesy might get laughed at out loud.

    The funding thing isn’t bothersome to me as it remains aligned with the same incentives that exist when the law firm does the funding itself.  There was already big money there.

    Now, if you are saying those particular incentives are shit and we need tort reform, then I agree.  But the foxes have been guarding that henhouse forever.  Most politicians are lawyers and are unlikely to hurt their guild.

    Yeah. Maybe I wasn’t clear. My point was that it’s amusing to me when politicians back programs they aren’t likely to suffer a consequence for, and then they suffer consequences for them. I don’t think it’s entirely ironic because the outcome could have been anticipated and the policies were wrong.

    BD you know I want interesting debate and conversation on here but all I got in response to your post is three words:

    Frankly I’m surprised that nobody is mentioning perjury charges or at least accusations at this point. Didn’t Jack go in front of congress and say there was no such thing as shadow banning?  This thread shows that not only did shadow banning exist, but that it had many flavors and was a major feature of Twitter’s system.

    The other side’s defense is that there is nothing new here but I think that Musk is doing a service for public trust.

    Ask Amber Heard how that whole “counter defense” thing worked out for her.

    Methinks this idea dies after the plaintiff contemplates disclosure. I suspect Hunter has more turds in the bed than Amber did.

    Tragic stuff, as expected.

    How tragic is it that a stolen kiss is now the basis for a sexual assault charge?  It used to just be a reason to get kicked in the balls…or lucky.

    The commentary on women and perfection does not align with either my view of elite female athletes at stanford (I married one) nor professional women in the workplace.

    It’s too bad that she was misled so badly about men, women, and the realities of life.  While, yes, a disciplinary proceeding could be a reason not to get into Stanford Law, it’s not the end of the world.  She could have been criminally charged and wasn’t.

    Btw, given how the other boards are going full censorship, if you guys have people email ceb.lord@gmail.com I can add people to the board. I get so many spam username request that I basically reject them all.

    the Stanford discussion place on this board could be a lot livelier

    I guess 1-8 was enough for Shaw himself.

    Agree, but it has to be stated that he is leaving the program in absolute tatters.

    I appreciate what he accomplished through 2019. The program went really soft after that.

    This will be a very unique rebuilding challenge, since it has to be done without the portal.
