@Nonilex@masto.ai Farmers across the Country overwhelmingly voted for Trump. It sucks that she sold out herself and her country because she didn't like a half-Black/ half-Indian woman.

The Coward’s Bargain
By Josh Stylman June 28, 2025 Psychology, Technology, Vaccines 16 minute read
But he’s not alone. We’ve created a culture where wrongthink is policed so aggressively that even successful, powerful people whisper their doubts like they’re confessing crimes.
brownstone.org/articles/the-co…
I was on a hike last year with a very prominent tech VC. He was telling me about his son’s football team—how their practices kept getting disrupted because their usual field on Randall’s Island was now being used to house migrants. He leaned in, almost whispering: “You know, I’m a liberal, but maybe the people complaining about immigration have a point.” Here’s a guy who invests mountains of money into companies that shape the world we live in, and he’s afraid to voice a mild concern about policy in broad daylight. Afraid of his own thoughts.
We're not just living in fear—we're teaching our children that fear is price of participation. Society built on fear isn't society at all.Josh Stylman (Brownstone Institute)

"A Blueprint for NIH Reform"

7. INSTITUTIONAL OVERHEAD
In addition to its direct costs of personnel and equipment, successful research also depends on institutional support such as a building to work in, computing resources, a good university library, scientific discussions, and administrative support. To pay for such overhead, institutions charge NIH indirect costs as a percentage on top of the direct grant money. The percentage varies widely among different universities and research institutes. For example,
Both scientists and the public are frustrated with scientific enterprise. This Perspective presents blueprint for NIH reforms.Martin Kulldorff (Brownstone Institute)

I mean, people die in ICE custody, people die in county jails, people die in state prisons.
Yeah, and prison officials are also sometimes found civilly or criminally liable for those deaths - which is frankly better than those officials deserve.
