Actually, I forgot a prediction. These old folks leaving in a cluster will spin on a dime. They’ll go from showing off that they’re healthy enough to work at the highest levels of control to projecting serious health issues which would make going after accountability seem cruel. — PolitiTweet.org

Lastly, I predict the accelerated exit won’t be partisan because the extraction in which they shared wasn’t partisan. I actually think many of these people have reasoned that they can’t retire until they are too old to worry about. Maybe mid to late 80s. Let’s see what happens. — PolitiTweet.org
Eric Weinstein @EricRWeinstein
I predict that at that point there will be an accelerated exit of folks who may have wanted to retire for a long time but who have actually stayed because it’s safer to remain in control of a stage managed system that refuses to call for hearings, discovery, disclosure & justice. — PolitiTweet.org

Think of the current group of Septuagenarians/Octogenarians running the US as a self-reinforcing clique who shore each other up. Soon, those who die or quit will cause the rest of them to be unable to protect themselves from the questions we have long been prevented from asking. — PolitiTweet.org

Respectfully disagree. The problem isn’t “String Theory”. As a harsh critic of the field I’m first to admit that there is tremendous depth in “String Theory”. The problem is the effect of “String Culture” on the culture of *actual* physics tied to the world in which we live. — PolitiTweet.org

@EricRWeinstein String theory is to Physics what postmodernism is to Philosophy

@jimmyjandal @elonmusk With Putin in Ukraine? I would restart it in a heartbeat to discuss how we really get off this one sphere to diversify our bet. Not my call however. — PolitiTweet.org

My buddy @rickbeato with the great Tim Pierce right after he blew the minds of everyone at the Wilshire Ebell theater by showing us all the genius that went into “I am the Wlarus” track by track. I had no idea just how musically intricate and bizarre it really was. https://t.co/BkNsRpph2b — PolitiTweet.org

@cornettd We will build tunnels. We will build chemical rockets. That is not in doubt. Only the other part is in doubt. — PolitiTweet.org

We are the first people in hundreds of years to allow known physics to crush our spirit at scale. We made one crazy bet on string theorists 40yrs ago and suddenly we now all give up? I wish I understood this better. Never, never, never give up. How strange….well, back to work. — PolitiTweet.org
Elon Musk @elonmusk
It is the fastest way to get between one downtown and another with known physics (and the Standard Model is proving quiet resilient)!

Let’s stop this “labor shortage” dead in its tracks. Let’s not print visas. It’s time to recognize workers are suffering from a *share shortage*. We need to print shares not visas and add them to compensation packages. Bingo! Look at that: totally fictitious problem solved. 🙏 — PolitiTweet.org
Eric Weinstein @EricRWeinstein
Let’s talk about “equities shortages” which are no more real than “labor shortages”. That way every S.O.B. who whines about a labor shortage will hear: “Oh. It’s because of the Stock Share Shortage. You just have to print new shares of your company to get your workers energized.” — PolitiTweet.org
Eric Weinstein @EricRWeinstein
You see, longterm labor shortages don’t exist in large market economies. But the news media counts on workers being too dumb to understand the wage mechanism. So everyone in media pretends to believe in labor shortages. Like they were jackalopes. Let’s print shares & not visas. https://t.co/1BamM9kNEo — PolitiTweet.org
Eric Weinstein @EricRWeinstein
I feel gaslit when grown-ups talk about labor shortages in market economies w wage mechanisms. It’s basically an admission that capitalism is meant as a TRICK where workers can’t benefit from markets. Let’s talk about the ongoing equities shortage & printing shares for workers. — PolitiTweet.org
Steven Rattner @SteveRattner
Joining @Morning_Joe in a few to discuss the ongoing labor shortage and inflation. Where are America’s workers?

@anticommiemommy I think the positions are dangerous. So actually does he. But I can’t say more. That is for him. — PolitiTweet.org

Lastly I’ll say this: Sam is anti-tribal, I’m not. I admire guys who don’t leave a buddy on the battlefield in war. This is just Twitter so it’s good practice. Sam’s a close friend, not an account to me. And no real friend goes under the bus to placate a mob. That’s my policy.🙏 — PolitiTweet.org

Eric Weinstein @EricRWeinstein
Yet as most of you know, I try to make a policy of NOT running away from any friend facing a mob. And Sam is a true friend in a tough spot after a bad interview advocating for positions directly counter to my own. I’m not running away, so you can fire away at me in the comments. — PolitiTweet.org
Eric Weinstein @EricRWeinstein
But if I were to be egoic about this I would say that what Sam needs most is to have his underlying position steel-manned first by someone ELSE. What got said on that interview *was* troubling in substance. But the bit about corpses of children, etc. is just such a total misfire. — PolitiTweet.org
Eric Weinstein @EricRWeinstein
That’s not a dunk. It’s not dragging. He’s been great on all sorts of stuff. But Free Will, Trump, & the scalability of virtuous Atheism have been 3 areas of persistent disagreement. And I’ll continue to disagree w/ my friend. I’d be happy to discuss, steel-man or debate too. — PolitiTweet.org
Eric Weinstein @EricRWeinstein
People are asking what I think of @SamHarrisOrg’s recent stated positions surrounding Trump related issues. That they’re wrong? At least that’s my opinion. This is not a secret. I have been warning Sam openly about the danger of his theory of Trump since dinner on Jan 3, 2017. https://t.co/TiLtTwDcOq — PolitiTweet.org
