This is a disgusting defense of Max Miller and it's not a private family matter, he's a public official Does Mike Lawler seriously believe his ex-wife and ex-girlfriend Stephanie Grisham both jeopardized their careers to make up abuse allegations? Because that's basically what he is saying

On July 31, Simon Baron-Cohen urged people to tone down the rhetoric on twitter re Jason Arday, and pointed to his own research on autism and suicide. Alexander Kustov responded with "Shame" Elon Musk with "Evil," and a wide variety of people came out jeering. The kind of cruelty on display here.

@drianpace
If an academic is in such a condition that public scrutiny of his (equally public) work may cause suicidal urges, then as a matter of urgency he should take leave and receive care. Using this threat to try and silence critics is about as low as it gets.

This is amazing. You can't call out plagiarism because SUICIDE. 

This is the cheapest argument imaginable. It's what the trans movement did to shut down debate.

I've lost respect for Simon Baron-Cohen. He should be henceforth considered an absurd figure.

I care deeply about people's mental health. 

However, this is not a satisfactory defense for at least two reasons. 

First, what about the mental health of the people who's work Arday stole? 

What about Paula Zwozdiak-Myers? Women face an elevated risk for certain mental health

The most corrupt "president" in history, Donny Trumpy has made over$1,000,000,000 in one year. So he's getting richer while 90% of us are getting poorer. This should be a major issue, maybe the only issue in the midterms.

Constitutional lawyer here. I don't think it would violate the Constitution for the VP/Cabinet to invoke the 25th Amendment, but the intended constitutional remedy for this behavior is impeachment & removal. The fact that that remedy is politically impossible is a scandal and a crisis.

Spain's Sanchez says global citizens shouldn't pay for fallout of Iran war
Spanish ‌Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez said on Wednesday it was unjust for citizens worldwide to bear the cost of what he called illegal U.S. and Israeli actions in Iran, ​warning the war was inflicting severe global economic damage, with Spanish firms ​alone losing 100 billion euros ($116 billion) in under a month.
