You guessed it! I'm not sure who coined the term, it may have been LiquidZulu, though my personal favourite channel is MentisWave. I'm working on a compilation to introduce people to this little corner

RE: Private equity firm plans new city in California – NYT
Oh, you mean a taste of what Donetsk and Lugansk have been enduring for the past NINE YEARS?! Pro-Zelenskyy propagandists like Lyla are just as disgusting as the pro-Putin propagandists they try to rebuke,

"Citation needed" is a good thing, but "muh Reliable Source(TM)" is not, it's a variation of cherry-picking. Once a person has made up their mind, only information that feeds confirmation

People have been asking this same question for well over a century. Perhaps you've heard "if you don't read the New York Times, you're uninformed, and if you do, you're misinformed." I don't

As long as Hazlitt is higher than Sowell, I can accept that. Maybe you should do a tier list on individual economics books. Hazlitt's Economics in One Lesson is a must-read in my opinion. BTW, I'm currently

I prefer to bait my mousetraps with raisins covered in peanut butter; very effective. I know it's not relevant, but I thought I'd share that. Pests in my house eat well before they die. Actually, all animals

RE: "Islam and Liberty: A Comparative Analysis," by Will Coley
Yeah, well, in my experience, most detractors have F-tier arguments like "jEsUs NeVeR eXiStEd, hurr durr," even though history says different. This is where I take issue with anti-theists

I like the new perspective in this one. Ideas have been exchanged between the west and ancient near-east for millennia. The Renaissance, for example, was brought about in part because of an early wave
