Lambert and I, and many readers, agree that Ukraine has prompted the worst informational environment ever. We hope readers will collaborate in mitigating the fog of war — both real fog and stage fog — in comments. None of us need more cheerleading and link-free repetition of memes; there are platforms for that. Low-value, link-free pom pom-wavers will be summarily whacked.

And for those who are new here, this is not a mere polite request. We have written site Policies and those who comment have accepted those terms. To prevent having to resort to the nuclear option of shutting comments down entirely until more sanity prevails, as we did during the 2015 Greek bailout negotiations and shortly after the 2020 election, we are going to be ruthless about moderating and blacklisting offenders.

–Yves

P.S. Also, before further stressing our already stressed moderators, read our site policies:

Please do not write us to ask why a comment has not appeared. We do not have the bandwidth to investigate and reply. Using the comments section to complain about moderation decisions/tripwires earns that commenter troll points. Please don’t do it. Those comments will also be removed if we encounter them.

Correction, weak form: “Schools and ECE programs should consider flexible, non-punitive policies and practices to support individuals who choose to wear masks.” Correction, strong form: “Schools and ECE programs should consider flexible, non-punitive policies and practices to support individuals who choose to wear masks.” And:

 

We can have “more normal” lives but pretending the virus isn’t there is called wish fulfillment, pandering and acceptance of a level of death, sickness, disability and disruption that we would have considered unacceptable once. 3/

Cardiovascular Effects of the BNT162b2 mRNA COVID-19 Vaccine in Adolescents (preprint) Preprints.org. n = 301. Pfizer. From the Abstract: “Cardiovascular effects were found in 29.24% of patients, ranging from tachycardia, palpitation, and myopericarditis…. The clinical presentation of myopericarditis after vaccination was usually mild, with all cases fully recovering within 14 days. Hence, adolescents receiving mRNA vaccines should be monitored for side effects.”

‘Sounds about Right’: Ex-CIA Chief Michael Hayden Implies Trump Should Be Executed for Taking Classified Docs National Review

Exclusive: Trump Raid Documents Could Reveal Informants on U.S. Payroll Newsweek. A new theory from “two federal government sources.”

Trump Lawyer Told Justice Dept. That Classified Material Had Been Returned NYT. Sources: “Four people.” Reading all the way to the end: “No one has been charged in the case, and the search warrant on its own does not mean anyone will be.” I don’t understand the material realities of the box handling. The only precedents I have are moving (boxes labeled, with contents and location listed on the outside by the customer, plus a packing list from the mover) and estate inventories (a list from a third party) The key point is that all parties involved have good reason to have at least gestured toward a mutual agreement about what’s in each box. Neither process seems to have been followed in this case. Did Justice really say “Oh, OK” when told what was in the boxes? Is that normal? Lawyers in the readership please weigh in.
