I previously had a case of Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever… infected by a tick bite. At the time, I was a commercial airline pilot. I lost my medical license for a bit. It was unknown whether I’d ever fly again. I was so sick that my family never left me in the house alone. It was somewhat a miracle that I was even diagnosed correctly as I live in a region well outside where the CDC thought that specific tick-borne disease was possible. I also had a consulting business at the time working with healthcare providers. Part of the work we did involved a week of training in my hometown. On a day I didn’t feel too bad, I dropped in for a few minutes to say hello to our clients during their training. Months later, and mostly recovered, it I visited those same clients to continue their training. When I walked in, at their hospital, in unison, they all said, “You’re alive!” When I asked why they said that, they responded, “When we saw you 3 months ago, we all agreed you wouldn’t live another 2 weeks.” No one who has ever been seriously sick with a tick borne disease claims it’s a moral imperative to spread tick borne diseases. These two depraved people would not enjoy my face-to-face reaction to their morally twisted recommendation. All they deserve is ridicule and shame. In heaps.
Ridicule is my second “go to”. They really need something akin to “banishment”. They are either mentally impaired, or simply grifters looking to get another line on their résumé’s. In any event, they produce *nothing* of societal value. Been there, done that.
Tenure—which I assume these fraudsters have, or are striving for—in their faux field of study needs to be abolished. Years ago, I had the pleasure of serving in my college with a bioengineer. A wonderful lady who spent her entire life producing a rice (grain?) variant that was resistant to fungal rot and the age old disease called “ergo”. She succeeded and gave the world the grain variant—gratis. No matter how the figures are worked, this one discovery will save *millions* of lives in the poorest of countries.
I think the Bioethics academics should be mandated to wear always their Schutzstaffel uniform, with those little skull and bones insignias, and all journals should be crowned with the Party's flag.
This would be tremendously utilitarian, for then most people would stop mistaking experts in bioethics with thinkers.
Meanwhile leading bioethicist professor Peter Singer of Princeton believes it's okay to rape animals. Eating animals bad, raping animals good. Elsewhere we've been told that forced medical interventions are super bioethical, much to the chagrin of the writers of the Geneva conventions. These are the surprising conclusions of bioethics.
I don't know if they've got so caught up in muh surprising counterintuitive conclusion games that they're forced to escalate to this point, or if they really believe this stuff. Or maybe the "bio" prefix inverts the meaning of "ethics" according to some grammatical rules I was never taught. Whatever the case, the whole field needs to go in the bin.
It should be noted that Singer was a proponent of post birth abortion (?). In short, bringing back the customs of Ancient Rome, where the father, or head of the family, had to accept the baby or it would be abandoned on the side of the road.
Indeed; “In 1979 he wrote, “Human babies are not born self-aware, or capable of grasping that they exist over time. They are not persons”; therefore, “the life of a newborn is of less value than the life of a pig, a dog, or a chimpanzee.”
For a laugh, if you ever meet one of these creatures in person, point out that we call our moral and legal protections by the name *human* rights, and not grasping-they-exist-over-time rights or being-a-person rights.
What's morally obligatory is for Americans to speak out clearly against power-grasping collectivists and their endless frauds.
Back in 1980, it was "nuclear winter" and global cooling. Then it switched to global warming. And when that failed it was "climate change," because we don't know which way but whatever, it's a crisis so give us power!!!
In-between, the power-grasping lies include ozone layer, frogs, turtles, bees, and the Tellico Dam snail darter.
These are the people that the Unabomber targeted. He saw that academia was being funded to actually work to our destruction. Surprised their lab hasn't already been, you know...
And they didn’t…obviously their colleagues are patting them on the back for their keen sense of deconstructionism—and I’m not talking Architecture here. I’m sure the article benefited them in the “biz”.
Cue the mystifying development of disease among a variety of mammals whereby they either die of violent allergic reactions to foods they were formerly able to eat, or die more slowly of mass starvation and malnutrition as their bodies and taste buds reject the foods they were meant to eat to survive. Suddenly people will be wondering what happened to all the wildlife; then they'll blame climate change or some other made-up manmade catastrophe, while carefully avoiding the actual, direct man-made catastrophe that caused the mass extinction.
There is a semi-legend about China. They mandated the extermination of sparrows and small birds, sent by hidden capitalist enemies to eat the grain in the fields. Five year plans designed by the people's scientists surely are perfect and can not fail, unless there is sabotage.
The problem with all that was that the sparrows didn't eat cereal. The birds ate larvae and insects who were eating barley and rice and wheat and sorghum and whatnot.
So, the more birds the revolutionary kids killed, the better it was for the insects to live unexamined life cycles.
In summary: communists are retarded.
Socialists in general cause their own destruction. There is no need to fight them, we just need to encourage them.
In fact, I'm donating to Bernie's campaign right now.
ChatGPT mentions can’t consume derivatives from animals such as milk & cheese, gelatins (food or medicine capsules), “natural flavor” additives, plus vaccines and other medicines. So yea, no big deal…

If only all academics were like that…
Well said, captain. I am glad you survived.

This "don't eat meat thing" is a amalgamation of errors:
1. History began with "us".
2. "We're" so noble.
3. "Pets" are children.
4. "Pay no attention" to your ancestors, including what your ancestors ate.
5. "We're gods...
- and that of course is at the root of It all
“most widely accepted arguments”
Most widely accepted among those they don’t exclude for not accepting the argument. See “echo chamber”.
You think you hate scientists enough.
You do not.
Sciencism ate philosophy and now it is just failed scientists in sophist's clothing.
Thanks for playing!
OK glowy.

Post birth abort him already.

Indeed. And are God given and not human given.
Neither can Singer, when he's asleep.
I am so glad the word retard has re-entered the vocabulary.
The causes of Lyme already came from a mil-grade psyop, altering human proteins and also resulting in "allergies" and arthritis:
https://rayhorvaththesource.substack.com/p/what-do-peanut-allergy-lyme-and-arthritis
In more technical terms, it looks like amyloidosis:
https://outraged.substack.com/p/it-is-nanoparticle-induced-amyloidosis
Absolute bullshit. The causitive organism has been found in 60K year old fossilized mammal remains.
But sure - that's all part of "the psyop"
And Briggs "likes" so many of these bullshit comments
Link, please?
And DON'T DAMAGE THE COMMENT SECTION OF A RESPECTABLE AUTHOR WITH NAME-CALLING!!!
If you did this on my stack, I would ban you right away; no questions asked.
And what makes you think this is not part of the scheme?
What do Lyme, arthritis, and peanut allergy have in common? :)

I'm sure the Psychopath Bill Gates is on this one with his lab grown meat as the solution!
You will need a subscription for food you can eat. I'm only half joking.

After reading Briggs, they developed a nervous tick.
Never let a terrible idea go to waste.

I'm anti-bookburning, but I am increasingly pro-academia-burning.
Book burning is, like flag burning, protected free speech.
Assuming that "if" in:
"Herein, we argue that if eating meat is morally impermissible, then efforts to prevent the spread of tickborne AGS are also morally impermissible."
Means "since"?
Galactose-alpha occurs in other substances, besides red meat, it is found in cherries and honey.
Unless, the authors address how eating cherries and honey are, also, morally impermissable, their argument appears flawed.
Not that I, personally, have any interest in eating cherries... But, Billy Boy might have a problem with it?

The problem is that they drag us along, padded by illegal votes in gerrymandered urban districts.
