Glad the free speech folks are in chargebureaucracies are what they are, and this may be as stupid as it seems. But the implication of a blanket ban on mentioning or teaching Plato in philosophy courses throughout TX universities is surely an exaggeration.

But just imagine what it must be like - one day you’re dictator for life. Every luxury at your disposal. The world your oyster.
The next morning you wake up in Federal prison in Brooklyn.
I bet he woke up Sunday - if he slept at all - hoping it was all a nightmare only to see bars in the window.
Similar thoughts about Epstein and why I think it's totally reasonable for him to have committed suicide.
Human contentment is about the first derivative of one's status, not the absolute value.

They’ve cracked MSThis @CraigBrockie fella sounds a bit kookie ... (1) he posted such a long thread on the subject and yet managed to omit any link or citation of the research paper on which his entire thread is based, and (2) there is this sentence "Science is finally catching up to what natural health practitioners have known for decades" which does not inspire confidence -- no, the "natural health practitioners" do not "know," they merely "believe."
Anyway, I think this is the paper: https://www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pnas.2419689122 , published in April 2025.
