I mean even the first sentence is bleak af. Who needs to be *asked* to take part in one of the most joyous privileges of parenthood??

Reading proofs from book & remembering what I wrote in 2015: "I am very concerned about the future of AI. Not because of the risk of rogue machines taking over. But because of the homogeneous, one-dimensional group of men who are currently involved in advancing the technology.”

No prizes for correctly guessing what makes one refugee worthy of safety (and in need of their own state) and another an invader and a threat.

It's not only weird. It's also alienating.

Time for this classic again.

We see the same trick with climate change. "The answer is not to stop fossil fuels overnight" No-one is asking you to. But we have been asking you to start work on this for DECADES.

"No extra cost". How generous.

I remember outrage about Just Stop Oil blocking a street, just in case an ambulance had to drive down it. Not because an ambulance was prevented from doing so, you understand. Just the abstract idea that one might have to.

And why are they calling themselves the Environmental Protection Agency when they refuse to protect our environment?

Once again: if you only bring up antisemitism as a way of defending otherwise indefensible Israeli policy... you don't really care about antisemitism.
