They don't need more training. They need consequences

If you knew it was bullshit, why did you post it? Shame on you

One of my favorites!

All 3 books in the first uplift series work fine as stand-alone stories. But book 1 (Sundiver) does kinda read like a prequel to the rest of the series. The inciting incident of Startide Rising is what sets everything else in motion for all subsequent books, and Sundiver takes place before that. But it does have a bunch of world building that is helpful context for the other books (and is still a fun story).

I recommend you read Startide Rising first, then circle back to Sundiver if you are enjoying the world and the author's style.

You don't even start panting, because that is a response to CO2 buildup

The actual information released in "the Twitter files" showed the opposite of what musky's pet propagandists said it did.

You seem to actually admit that what happened was identifying posts that violated the terms and conditions of private companies. No demands or threats were issued.Does the government have no right to speak truth?

If a government agency notices a lethal hazard in your town that doesn't technically violate the law, should they be prohibited from telling you and your neighbors about the danger?

When a topic has been covered by multiple national newspapers, it's just very silly to claim censorship.

such as, the lab leak hypothesis... once completely censored as "misinformation", but now a viable theory

It was never completely censored. Evidenced by the fact that you, me, and everyone else heard about it.

People got called names for promoting it without good evidence. People also got called names for pointing out that the evidence was super weak. Y'know, what passes for "debate" these days.

Stop lying

Also does not contain any concrete allegations regarding election fraud.

Is your precious "stabbed in the back"narrative so much more important to you than engaging with reality?

The linked article fails to even make any concrete allegations. It simply refers to Donna Brazile's book.

I didn't see any election fraud. Can you explain how the fraud worked?
