Question: "Wait..Eric, aren't u the guy who'ss selling the idea that our only way out is to leave the planet????" - @fredbristol2 Answer: Let’s be clear about this weird sounding issue. @elonmusk is one of the only minds properly focused in public on the issue of the current danger to human consciousness from having all known intelligent life in the universe on a single terrestrial surface.

I view radical libertarianism as, almost literally, the linear approximation to a free society where you take all non-linear ways we impact each other & send them to zero in the libertarian limit.

What would you say to the same needs in reverse? I, for example, want to know if Jeffrey Epstein had ties to the US intelligence community and has some measure of immunity to operate as a pedophile & trafficker.

I will be deleting any and all tweets that @TwitterSafety demands that I delete. I am announcing this now so that it is clear I am pre-capitulating to asymmetric power, and not on the basis of the merits of any particular claim. [Note: I have never been asked to remove a tweet.] I’ve had James on my show and have shared my distaste and discomfort with his methods. I, however, would say the same to institutional news outfits that regularly invade the privacy of others. Except in exotic … [Read more...] about Managed Reality™
