I am not being censored because I don't make content for youtube and I don't post on twitter or facebook or anything like that, but many of the content makers I watch are being censored or banned from the platform, and even lefties I watch like Jimmy Dore are being smeared by the establishment media as Russian assets because they're against bombing Syria.
I'm not too much like Alex Jones. He is an entertainer who probably doesn't believe most of what he says, and there's a good chance people like him, Joe Rogan, and the Young Turks are controlled opposition. The point is though, first they came for Alex Jones, then they came for Bret Weinstein, and next they come for you.
Are you telling me that you don't think we're going down the wrong path as a society by demonizing and censoring scientists for having open discussions? You don't see even a little problem with that?
Am I an extremist? You and I both would probably be considered extremists by the establishment.

Scientists making claims that have been determined to be bad/false science should be allowed to continue making the claims because their scientists?
They can make their claims all they want, just not violate a private businesses rules.

-Jimmy Dore is a fucking moron who wasn't "just smeared " for Syria he's had some insane takes over the last few years
-Whether Alex Jones believes in what he says. He amplifies absurd and dangerous conspiracies and profits off of them.
-Bret Weinstein is a POS who's not fucking censored when he gets top fucking billing on the Joe Rogan Show.
I'm sick to death of fucking millionaires who get prominent platforms in right-wing media and are allowed to write books that make it to the new york bestseller list bitching to me about censorship because private companies told them to go fuck themselves. You are not entitled to a platform asshole nor are other people obligated to platform you.
As for AI cringe comparison to NAZI fucking Germany. No one is "coming " for Jimmy Fucking Dore. No group of secret police is going to show up at his door in the dead of night and kidnap him. Then drive him to the middle of a field and blow his brains out and then toss him into a shallow grave somewhere. That's fucking absurd.

My guess for the miami condo collapse...the original mix contained alkali add mixtures and secondary repairs were missing either epoxy coated rebar or did not embed diodes.

Yeah because private companies never cut corners in construction to save a few bucks

There is a lot of wrong to unpack here. I'd like for you to expand on the epoxy coated rebar and "embed" diodes. What the actual fuck are "embed diodes"?
If you get to thinking you’re a person of some influence, try ordering somebody else’s dog around.

I'm still going with sinking/sinkhole/substrate failure. The building collapsed like it was undercut.
