So this is what I don't understand from Musk and the Trump supporters. They're now claiming Covid was a deadly Chinese bioweapon funded by USAID. But I thought the line was COVID was no worse than a cold, and lockdown was unnecessary.

The craziest part of this whole story will be in a couple of weeks when Gell-Mann Amnesia takes hold and people will be talking about FTX as a complete fraud but Binance and Tether as totally legit.

if you feel bad for banking analysts working 100 hours a week so they can get KKR money in a year, wait until you find out about retail workers working the same hours with no prospect of financial security at any point no matter how hard they work – at Marina del Rey, CA

OK, here *may* be why Robinhood & other brokerages shut down trading.
Not because evil. Because they can't afford the cost!
Due to the volatility of these stocks, their partners now (understandably) want cash up front. No one wants to be holding the bag. finance.yahoo.com/video/here…

The President has not been silenced. He has a press room right in his house. He’s more than welcome to step up to the podium, speak and even take some questions.
He is not a victim

Actually, executives that criticize China’s governance have their companies taken away and disappear. Ask Jack Ma.
This is a First Amendment issue, as in private companies can do this because of the First Amendment.
Silencing people, not to mention the President of the US, is what happens in China not our country. #Unbelievable

Historian of coups and right-wing authoritarians here. If there are not severe consequences for every lawmaker & Trump govt official who backed this, every member of the Capitol Police who collaborated with them, this "strategy of disruption" will escalate in 2021

China's wet markets are a global health disaster. So is our approach to industrial animal agriculture. If we want to prevent the next pandemic, we'll change it. vox.com/future-perfect/2020/…
