My message to academic Twitter is simple. Don’t act like mean tweets about your academic field are oppression. Don’t use your PhD as a cudgel to stamp out opinions about your field that you don’t like. Stuff like that will probably backfire. Badly. — ๐Ÿ”ฅ Kareem Carr ๐Ÿ”ฅ (@kareem_carr) Jul 5, 2021 from http://twitter.com/kareem_carr via …

Also, I think a lot of academics on Twitter are abusing the language of science education to win arguments. They often claim to be “correcting misconceptions” which invokes the framework of *factual* errors when they’re really just pushing back on *criticisms* they don’t like. — ๐Ÿ”ฅ Kareem Carr ๐Ÿ”ฅ (@kareem_carr) Jul 5, 2021 from http://twitter.com/kareem_carr …

To be clear, I agree that it’s good to promote being on the same page about scientific *facts* BUT this is different from implying it’s somehow out of bounds to have opinions about scientists as human beings and their communities. — ๐Ÿ”ฅ Kareem Carr ๐Ÿ”ฅ (@kareem_carr) Jul 5, 2021 from http://twitter.com/kareem_carr via IFTTT

Are academic fields really so fragile that one bad tweet could cause the whole thing to come crashing down and thousands of scientists to lose their jobs? — ๐Ÿ”ฅ Kareem Carr ๐Ÿ”ฅ (@kareem_carr) Jul 5, 2021 from http://twitter.com/kareem_carr via IFTTT

โ€œItโ€™s not about politics.โ€ New York prosecutor Carey Dunneโ€™s words were repeated like a mantra after this weekโ€™s indictment of the Trump Organization and its financial chief, Allen Weisselberg. The problem is that it is manifestly untrue. https://t.co/GRsgCrckJG — Jonathan Turley (@JonathanTurley) Jul 5, 2021 from http://twitter.com/JonathanTurley via IFTTT

Let me throw out one possibility: the left, which dominates the culture and academia and most studentsโ€™ psyches and thus peer pressure, demands total uniformity and if you resist, you are branded a bigot and worse. Even to question the dogma is morally forbidden. So, they cave. https://t.co/2195EY706Z — David Limbaugh (@DavidLimbaugh) Jul 5, 2021 …

Well this is interesting. No one contacted me, and, I sorta doubt anyone could do a good job representing my position without doing so. Given WLC and I disagree on the topic…well, we will see! https://t.co/gx3rzDcxxm — James White (@DrOakley1689) Jul 5, 2021 from http://twitter.com/DrOakley1689 via IFTTT

I just saw the totals for the weekend in the failed city of Chicago: 88/14 (88 shot, 14 killed). But, if you look at your news feeds…hockey, NBA, black legislators saying America is bad, etc. But since it does not promote The Narrative, it is ignored. — James White (@DrOakley1689) Jul 5, 2021 from http://twitter.com/DrOakley1689 …

I was just reading about how to improve your HRV (heart rate variability) and an article said, “The act of writing down things youโ€™re thankful for each day can elicit a corresponding uptick in heart rate variability.” Huh, who knew thankfulness would be good for you? — James White (@DrOakley1689) Jul 5, 2021 from http://twitter.com/DrOakley1689 …

I have said for years: when you find someone making this argument, you are reading someone without a *clue* about either the Hebrew Scriptures, or Jesus’ teachings, and, normally, they are rather proud of their ignorance. This guys sure seems to be. https://t.co/Lrzcq3D7EH — James White (@DrOakley1689) Jul 5, 2021 from http://twitter.com/DrOakley1689 via IFTTT
