Rebecca Culshaw Smith's Substack, “The Real AIDS Epidemic,” highlights core criticisms of mainstream HIV/AIDS theory, medical testing, pharmaceutical practices, and challenges to scientific orthodoxy. Based on her popular posts, interviews, and thematic content, these are 20 of the most important ideas advanced on her platform: 1. Questioning the existence of HIV as a unique virus, arguing that classic virological isolation (Koch's postulates) has not been fulfilled. 2. Highlighting the non-specificity and cross-reactivity of HIV antibody tests, leading to potential misdiagnosis. 3. Criticism of “viral load” PCR tests for not detecting whole pathogens but only RNA fragments. 4. Noting the shifting criteria for HIV test positivity over time, calling diagnostic standards into question. 5. Documenting long-term “non-progressors” and “elite controllers” who remain healthy without antiretroviral therapy. 6. Raising awareness of AIDS-defining illnesses in HIV-negative individuals and questioning causality. 7. Arguing that hazard from AIDS medications (e.g., AZT, Truvada, Prep) may outweigh their benefits, especially due to their toxicity and inconsistent trial results. 8. Critique of the marketing and deployment of pre-exposure prophylaxis (Prep), calling it a pharmaceutical “scandal” targeting people not at significant risk. 9.Exploring how COVID-19 public health narratives mirror what she views as deception and fear tactics from the AIDS era. 10. Disputing the epidemiological narrative that AIDS is globally caused by a single infectious agent, and highlighting massive regional/demographic inconsistencies. 11. Exposing groupthink, censorship, and reputational shaming used against scientists questioning the HIV/AIDS paradigm. 12. Emphasizing failures of antiretroviral therapy in preventing disease progression for many patients. 13.. Explaining the statistical and mathematical problems in foundational HIV/AIDS research and the “shaky foundation” of guiding studies. 14. Arguing that AIDS-defining diseases may often reflect toxicity, malnutrition, or existing comorbidities, not a distinct viral syndrome. 15. Linking historical and social factors (such as drug use, pharmaceutical incentives) to the creation and persistence of the HIV/AIDS establishment. 16. Alerting readers to issues of false positive antenatal screening and broader concerns about mass diagnostic testing in medicine. 17. Suggesting that “virus-like particles” in the body are misidentified as pathogens, not proof of HIV's existence. 18. Forecasting that advances in AI and technology may help overturn scientific “consensus” by increasing transparency and debate. 19 Publicly refuting hit pieces and attempts to “cancel” her work as ideological suppression, not science. 20.Advocating for a return to fundamental scientific rigor and genuine skepticism in medical research, especially around virology and public health narratives. These topics synthesize her core objections to HIV/AIDS orthodoxy and frame her Substack as a point of dissent and critique against modern medical paradigms and their social consequences.

In this thought-provoking workshop from the 2024 Rooted Conference in Dallas, Mike McGarry explores how a proper understanding of the Imago Dei—the image of God—shapes our identity and discipleship. Arguing that much of today's cultural confusion stems from forgetting what it means to be human, Mike walks through the biblical storyline of creation, fall, redemption, and glorification to show how the Imago Dei is a unifying thread throughout Scripture. He also offers practical insight into why this matters for youth and family discipleship today.Mike is the Founder and Director of Youth Pastor Theologian and served as an ordained youth pastor for nearly twenty years in Massachusetts. He holds a Doctor of Ministry from Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary, with an emphasis on Ministry to Emerging Generations, and is the author of multiple books on youth ministry.Rooted Resources:Youth Pastor TheologianIconic: Being God's Image in Your World (Real World Theology) by Mike McGarryCalvin, Terrence Malick's The Tree of Life, and The Image of God for Youth: Part 1 by Dan WolfFollow @therootedministry on Instagram for more updates Register for Rooted 2025 Conference in Chicago Follow @therootedministry on Instagram for more updates andSubscribe to Youth Ministry Unscripted wherever you listen to podcasts

Veronique de Rugy of the Mercatus Center questions the need for US industrial policy, arguing that the existing system of limited government and free trade, which produces unparalleled tech and wealth, is already superior. 1790 ADAM SMITH
Episode #402: “In stable times, sustainability may be seen as a long term aspiration,” says Tin Shine Aung, a Burmese scholar and sustainability expert whose work bridges research, policy, and on-the-ground crisis response. “But in our context, in the context of a polycrisis, it's become like a strategy for survival and reconstruction.”Arguing that Myanmar is living through a true polycrisis— multiple shocks that collide and amplify each other rather than simply add up— Tin Shine Aung points out that this demands treating sustainability not as a later luxury but as a present survival and reconstruction strategy. He rejects the idea of “waiting until after the war,” noting that disasters and social-economic collapses do not pause for politics, so governance must integrate sustainability now across environmental, social, and economic pillars.Tin Shine Aung threads a timeline to show how system fragility accumulated: the 2007 fuel-price crisis and Saffron Revolution exposed cracks; in 2008, Cyclone Nargis devastated the delta and the junta nonetheless pushed a constitutional referendum, claiming “over 90%” approval while many communities were still reeling. The 2010s brought ethnoreligious nationalism and political accommodation to it: Muslim candidates were excluded from the NLD's 2015 lists, producing the first Muslim-free legislature since independence, and in January 2017 constitutional lawyer U Ko Ni— closely associated with State Counsellor design— was assassinated at Yangon's airport broad daylight.Here Tin Shine Aung contrasts Myanmar's breakdown with Ukraine to illustrate what makes a polycrisis: in Myanmar, systems across governance, economy, and social services have simultaneously failed and safe exit pathways are scarce. Economically, factories in major cities often get only “two to three hours a day” of grid power, forcing costly generators; more than a million workers have lost jobs; basics like cooking oil have tripled versus pre-coup; sanctions intended for elites cascade down the economy; new U.S. tariffs of about 40% on some categories and military conscription further squeeze the garment sector and labor supply.And yet, despite state failure and natural disasters, even now, grassroots actors are improvising underground schooling, digital classrooms and alternative universities, and turning to small-scale renewables— evidence that sustainability thinking is already alive on the ground! Tin Shine Aung urges international partners to scale such local initiatives and design sanctions, tariffs, and aid logistics to avoid worsening multiplier effects. “Even in the polycrisis,” he says, “our Burmese people are quietly laying the foundation for the sustainable future.”

In this episode of Building Better Developers with AI, hosts Rob Broadhead and Michael Meloche revisit an earlier conversation—this time through the lens of AI—to explore how constructive communication in software development creates healthier teams and better code. By analyzing their original “Advocating vs. Arguing” discussion, they uncover new ways to transform conflict into collaboration. “The goal is never to win. The goal is to find the best solution.” – Rob Broadhead What Constructive Communication Really Means Rob draws a clear line between two mindsets: Constructive communication invites evidence, empathy, and openness. Defensive arguing focuses on winning, often shutting down valuable ideas. This subtle difference determines whether a team works together to solve problems or gets stuck in endless debates. Why Constructive Communication Improves Software Development Software projects depend on diverse skills and experiences. When team members communicate constructively: Blind spots shrink. Different perspectives uncover hidden issues. Technical debt decreases. Shared understanding prevents costly rework. Client trust grows. Positive dialogue strengthens long-term relationships. Rob highlights how even an outsider's insight—like a .NET developer's idea on a Python project—can spark innovative solutions. Practical Steps to Encourage Constructive Communication Michael offers proven techniques to keep discussions positive and productive: Ask clarifying questions. Instead of “That won't work,” try “How do you see that working in this context?” Restate what you heard. Confirm understanding before you respond. Stay curious. Open-ended questions invite deeper exploration. “No is a conversation killer. Replace it with ‘Let's consider that.'” – Michael Meloche Spotting When Communication Turns Unproductive Arguments often start subtly. Watch for these warning signs: Absolutes such as “always” or “never.” Interrupting or talking over teammates. Ego-driven choices that ignore user needs or project goals. Rob recommends slowing the pace when tempers rise—pause the meeting, schedule a follow-up, or ask everyone to write down their thoughts before reconvening. Agile Practices Support Constructive Communication Rob and Michael agree that Agile's built-in rituals—backlog refinement, iterative feedback, and sprint reviews—naturally encourage constructive communication in software development. If a team frequently argues, it may be skipping these essential steps. Michael also suggests a weekly “water-cooler” session where team members share new ideas or lessons learned. These informal gatherings nurture creativity and trust. Leadership Sets the Tone Managers and leads can reinforce constructive habits by: Checking in with teammates who seem defensive or frustrated. Offering mentoring or personal support when tension surfaces. Encouraging team traditions—from inside jokes to shared hobbies—that build rapport. Rob observes that the best teams always share a unique bond, whether it's dad jokes or a favorite game, which helps them weather stressful moments. Reader Challenge: Practice Constructive Communication This Week Your Mission: Over the next seven days, pick one team interaction—a stand-up, code review, or planning meeting—and intentionally practice constructive communication in software development. Steps to Try: Listen First. Before offering your idea, restate someone else's point to confirm understanding. Replace “No” with Curiosity. When you disagree, ask an open question like “How do you see that working with our current sprint goals?” Log the Outcome. After the meeting, jot down what changed: Did the discussion stay more positive? Did new solutions surface? Share your results with your team—or even comment on the blog post—to inspire others. Challenge yourself: Can you turn at least one potential argument into a moment of advocacy this week? Key Takeaway: Build a Culture of Constructive Communication This episode underscores that constructive communication in software development is more than a soft skill—it's a project-saver. By listening first, asking better questions, and validating every voice, teams can replace conflict with collaboration and move projects forward with confidence. “Choosing one approach together is better than arguing endlessly about the perfect one.” – Rob Broadhead Whether you're leading a sprint, conducting a code review, or gathering requirements, focusing on constructive communication ensures that every idea is heard—and the best solutions rise to the top.

In Episode 176 of The Alan Sanders Show, host Alan Sanders dives into the stark contrast between how conservatives and the Left engage in political discourse. Conservatives focus on dismantling flawed policies with facts and reason, while Democrats and the mainstream media often resort to dehumanizing opponents, labeling them as "dangerous" or "threats to democracy." Alan explores how this tactic, reminiscent of Maoist rhetoric, fuels division and stifles debate and how the same parallels can be seen in our colleges today, which took place during Mao's “Cultural Revolution.” We learn about the shooter and know he was fueled to eliminate fascists. Tune in for a sharp analysis of why arguing substance matters and how personal attacks undermine a free society.

Arguing With God - Malachi 3:1-5 Dr. Jamie Merritt
• Guest Name: Veronique de Rugy • Affiliation: Mercatus Center • Summary: Veronique de Rugy strongly critiques the proposal for a US sovereign wealth fund, arguing it's a poor idea given the US's high debt-to-GDP ratio and existing budget deficits. She contends that borrowing to invest would be fiscally unsound and would lead to "cronyism on steroids," as government investment decisions are driven by political priorities rather than viable market opportunities, unlike private sector investments. 1910 JUNEAU ALASKA

I don't know why it took me so long to realize this, but it occured to me that many of the far left liberals who come after me in social media were "AI Arguing" meaning just cutting and pasting AI-generated verbiage into comment boxes...or "paraphrasing" (i.e. plagarizing). I refuse to argue with AI idiots who are propagandized by the far left technocrats. This whole machine first philosophy is FATALLY flawed. Music Credit: @mattbradfordmusic

ANGELA'S SYMPOSIUM 📖 Academic Study on Witchcraft, Paganism, esotericism, magick and the Occult
In this video, I explore Aleister Crowley's The Vision and the Voice and why it remains one of the most powerful and unsettling texts in the Western esoteric tradition. I look at how the figure of Babalon emerges as both a theophany and a ritual of unmaking, and how this visionary work challenges our assumptions about magic, subjectivity, and divine encounter. I also trace the shifting image of Lilith, from biblical warning to occult icon, focusing on her reimagining in modern esotericism through figures like Kenneth Grant and the rise of feminist magical traditions. If you're interested in Thelema, mysticism, or the deeper currents behind the archetypes of the divine feminine, this lecture offers a chance to descend into the Aethyrs and return transformed.CONNECT & SUPPORT

0:00 - The Avalanche signed former Sabres & Golden Knights forward Victor Olofsson. What can he bring to the team?15:55 - Brett likes to think of himself as a well-rounded intellectual human being.

“Britain's heading for civil war.” “Immigration's out of control.” “We're stuck with two-tier woke policing.” How do you argue back when relatives, friends or colleagues start parroting Reform's inflammatory half-truths? And when they're encouraged by a compliant media and radicalised pundits? Campaigning journalist Paul Mason wrote How To Stop Fascism. He tells Andrew Harrison how to tell a persuadable Farage fan from an irredeemable racist, how to debate with them, and why progressives no longer have the luxury of sticking to their factions. • Buy How To Stop Fascism through our affiliate bookshop and you'll help fund The Bunker by earning us a small commission for every sale.

No one doubts the bravery of the thousands of men who flew and died in Bomber Command. The death rate was an appalling 44%. And yet until the opening of a monument in Green Park in 2012 they had received no official recognition, with many historians claiming that the offensive was immoral and unjustified. How can it be right, they argue, for the Allies to have deliberately targeted German cities causing the death of hundreds of thousands of civilians? Even on a strategic level the offensive failed to bring about the collapse of civilian morale that was its intention. Others, however, maintain that the attacks made a decisive contribution to the Allied victory. Vast numbers of German soldiers and planes were diverted from the eastern and western fronts, while Allied bombing attacks virtually destroyed the German air force, clearing the way for the invasion of the continent. Arguing for the motion were AC Grayling, philosopher and author of 'Among the Dead Cities: Is the Targeting of Civilians in War Ever Justified?'; and Richard Overy, Professor of history at Exeter University who has published extensively on World War II and air power in the 20th century. Arguing against them were Antony Beevor, award-winning historian and author of the No. 1 international bestseller 'The Second World War'; and Patrick Bishop, historian and author of 'Bomber Boys'. The debate was chaired by Jeremy O'Grady, Editor-in-chief of The Week magazine and co-founder of Intelligence Squared. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Things can get dangerously hot in the summer. The interior of your car, the sidewalk, even your patio furniture can heat up in the summer sun and burn you. Listen as I reveal just how hot these things can get. https://www.rd.com/article/things-that-get-dangerously-hot/ You've likely noticed that some things are harder to learn than others and that some people learn faster than others. Are there ways to make learning easier and quicker for those of us who aren't rocket scientists? Yes, according to my guest Daniel Willingham. He is a professor of psychology at the University of Virginia and author of several books including Outsmart Your Brain: Why Learning is Hard and How You Can Make It Easy (https://amzn.to/43Lkb8N). Listen as he explores the fascinating process of how we learn. People argue a lot. And it makes you wonder if it ever does any good. Does arguing actually accomplish something or does it leave people more upset and polarized than before? Perhaps there a better way to resolve problems without arguing. That is what my guest Linda Bloom specializes in. She and her husband Charlie are veteran marriage counselors and seminar leaders who have authored several books including An End to Arguing: 101 Valuable Lessons for All Relationships (https://amzn.to/3Y5J5yR). It's common advice that when you are mad, you should count to 10 before you say anything. That way, you give yourself a chance to calm down and not say something you later regret. Is that really a good strategy?
