Flat or clipless pedals? Some papers/experiments claim that clipless does not help since pulling is not efficient outside of some special situations. Doesn't offset the risks (eg Biden's fall). Yet cyclists almost always use clips. Is it, like superman suits, just social norm? — PolitiTweet.org

Some people are so wrong that to debunk them you must explain so many basic things: + Stat biases + Difference betw RCT & observation + Simpson's paradox + Quackery + You must ALSO apply "they make money" to cars, baking goods, wine, condoms, subscription to his newsletter, etc. — PolitiTweet.org

The fellow @toadmeister is way too ignorant of statistics to have a blog. He should cover car/truck repair topics. 1) observational evidence is not STATISTICAL evidence (owing to sample bias), 2) Randomized Controlled Studies consistently find no effect for Ivermectin. ~None. — PolitiTweet.org

3) The Rep. party used to be a merger of Classic Liberalism & Burkean conservatism: protective of institutions, free markets, traditional values,careful progress w/o disruption. MAGA is turning it from West civilization to a Nevada gym w/highly tattooed steroidal weightlifters. — PolitiTweet.org

2) Blocking those who in the thread talk about MAGA as "half the country", as if those voted earlier for Trump were pro Jan 6. Jan 6 is a problem. — PolitiTweet.org

@ofer_rubin @Prof_BearB I agree in general. ANTIFA democrats play little role. MAGAs are dominating the party, while I doubt that the majority of Trump voters are in favor of such eggregious violations as Jan 6. — PolitiTweet.org
