I’ve just been reading the twitter feed of a senior journalist and also of a well-known philosopher. They seem to me to be preposterous figures. One of the extraordinary effects of digital is that it reveals the hollowness and mediocrity of those we’d once have lauded.

So few people have any understanding of the importance liquidity plays in markets (which is why ‘speculator’ is a dirty word to the ill-educated twats who don’t grasp the essential role speculators play). – Perry de Havilland April 7th, 2020 | 38 comments - (Comments are closed)
 Like it or not, every country is pursuing a herd immunity strategy, all they are doing is trying to manage the speed at which it happens. – Perry de Havilland April 4th, 2020 | 24 comments - (Comments are closed)
A vaccine would be great, a vaccine from ISRAEL would be awesome! Just imagine the lunatic conspiracy theories & of course, if the crazies refuse to use a ‘Jewish’ vaccine, that just means more for the rest of us! Take it away, Charles Darwin! – Perry de Havilland  April 2nd, 2020 | 36 comments - (Comments are closed)

No; fuckwit lefties of twitter – That the crashcart has arrived and a medic is urgently applying paddles to a patient in arrest does *not* mean a defibrillation session every morning would do us all good. – Guy Herbert March 20th, 2020 | 6 comments - (Comments are closed)
First female POTUS will be a Republican. There have been two female Prime Ministers in UK now, both Conservative Party. And whilst I adored Thatcher & loathed May, neither made being female a political issue.

Some wonder if Philip Rutnam’s resignation has damaged Boris Johnson’s government. But a great swath of opinion outside the bubble takes this as a sign of something good happening & this chap’s squealing is music to their ears. They may be wrong to assume the swamp is being drained, but that is how this is playing to the normies. – Perry de Havilland February 29th, 2020 | 15 comments - (Comments are closed)
FYI, the death rate of COVID-19 among men is about 60% higher than among women. As there are no biological differences between men and women, I conclude this is entirely due to our inability in our society to teach men not to rape. – Samizdata Illuminatus February 23rd, 2020 | 10 comments - (Comments are closed)
