He has always told rambling, near-incoherent stories. He has always lied profusely.

What's new is how hes slurring his words, and how lethargic he is. It was especially noticable in his recent performance on the Lex Fridman show podcast.

The early signs of dementia are unavoidable at this point. It might only be a matter of time until Trump has his "We finally beat Medicare" moment.

"Media Bias Fact Check" is just some right winger in his basement.

The goal of Media Bias Fact Check isn't to reveal hidden bias and create better-informed news readers. The goal is to shift the Overton Window to the right.

They would call the leader of the israeli state and threaten to stop shipping weapons. Just like it was done multiple times in the past.

When Reagan and HW Bush made this phone call, the wars ended overnight. Why wouldnt it work for Biden/Kamala?

Thanks for the thoughtful response, but the follow up question is obvious: why only 20 per year?

There are over 19,000 FDA approved drugs, and 50 more are added each year. It's going to take a couple hundred years to catch up at this rate.

Even if your cartoonish depiction of the Taliban was true, it is not a good justification for the US to freeze all of the bank accounts in Afghanistan.

It's weird that you would assume something incorrect like that, when you can just google it and find that the money was

the reserves of Afghanistan’s commercial banks and ordinary people’s savings

It's literally the business and personal savings of the Afghani people, inaccessible to them for over 2 years now.

Why did we stop at 10?

This should happen with every drug.

I downvote it everytime because of its rightwing bias.

If you say the mainstream corporate news is center left, you're either stupid or you have a right wing agenda.

They wasted their supermajority by passing a right wing healthcare bill.

Instead of ending the wars as promised, they did a troop surge.

They bailed out wall street while doing little to help working americans.

It would be better to have war crimes trials to show how fucked up specific wars are.

Being able to make movies showcasing your past crimes is not a sign of a healthy society..

But Clarkson wasnt just ignorant, he was actively spreading ignorance.

He was out there telling all the kids that 6 x 5 = 40.

Now it looks like he might have realized that 6 x 5 is actually 30. If he wanted to be an adult and try to do better, he would be posting about how he was wrong, posting apologies, and positively affirming that 6 x 5 = 30. I dont see him doing any of these things.
