Terrific comedian wholly out of his depth. I remember when he took on charter schools and was spectacularly wrong and ill-informed. When someone screws up a topic you know well, you assume--or should--that they're equally wrong about subjects you don't know.
HBO's @LastWeekTonight has a long track record of citing social science findings without the appropriate context, massaging them to support whatever point @iamjohnoliver is trying to make.

Scientists & science journalists decry the public's rejection of science, but are oblivious to the major cause: the perception, sometimes correct, that scientists are just another political faction. Among the guiltiest perpetrators are the recent editors of Scientific American, who turned this once-beloved treasure into a left-wing propaganda rag. This absolutely does not justify the Trump administration's unconstitutional meddling, but the new owners are right to restore it to its mission of explaining science to Americans.

"Belief that a woman had her data stolen by two ambitious men who then did not credit her seems to be too powerful to be overcome by mere facts."

New guest post by @LGConwayIII. Link in reply.
"I remember the day that science died...It was at a Faculty Senate meeting almost five years ago at the University of Montana, my former employer. I was called a conspiracy theorist for citing studies run by Ivy League researchers. That day, I became convinced that progressive academia had become more like a cult than a science. To understand that moment requires understanding the slow death of science at my former university."

The Constitution prohibits the govt from restricting people for speech or punishing them for speech. There are no exceptions for immigrants on noncitizens. This is clear from a simple reading of 1A. That prohibition includes preventing the govt from deporting people for speech.
FIRE won a huge First Amendment victory today.
And before anyone mischaracterizes it: This ruling does NOT say the government must admit anyone, issue anyone a visa, or grant anyone citizenship.
It says that once a person is lawfully here, the government cannot deport them because they engaged in protected speech.
The government cannot tell a legal immigrant: An American is free to say this, but if you say it, you’re out.
That’s the principle we sued to defend. And today we won.

The Guardian interviewed me about my face perception research. Apparently, this work has been cited to support the legitimacy of "facial analysis services" provided by people who are part of the...
*checks notes*
...Looksmaxxing community.
I had thoughts (see below). They also cite @ExtravertedFace and @vaillancourt_dr. I love responsible science journalists like Laura O'Connor 🫶

I do not think it’s anti-racist to suggest black academics need to be “guided” not to do fraud. I think lots of black academics wake up every day and don’t do fraud and it’s weird and paternalistic to suggest this apparent con artist was let down by institutions and mentors.
