Amazing line up in olde England! Please keep the momentum going and bring some much needed sanity here to New England when you get a chance! The ivy leagues are in dire need of deprogramming from the online radicalization of 2020 that turned them into the New Puritans, as Andrew rightly calls them. Harvard was founded by Puritans and their witch hunting ways are back. Your work is so very needed Peter. Thank you!

Congratulations. You deserve all the accolades. You and James Lindsay have influenced my thinking of the dystopia we are in. The doctor’s comment is simple, profound and hilarious.”If gender is constructed, then how could trans not be a culture-bound syndrome?” whatever would Marcuse say?

Here in the Hudson Valley, I just heard from a close friend, a member of a legacy Black church, that his good friend, also Black and a member of the church, just got FIRED from a stainless steel kitchen equipment manufacturer, after more than 15 years with the company doing skilled labor. Why? Because he stood up for women and told a man wearing make-up that the women would be more comfortable if make-up man used the mens bathroom. Make-up man went to the executives and this minority employee with long term excellent work record, was FIRED ON THE SPOT.

You really got to meet all the great intellectuals!

I was at the film screening in London and said hello afterwards.

Keep up the brilliant work!

Seeing that you had such a jam-packed time in London makes me feel less bad that I couldn’t make our planned meeting. Would love to meet up with you next time you’re in the UK; hit me up whenever you revisit!

Sounds amazing! Can I ask what the John Cleese show is called? Sounds like a great lineup.

Welcome home Peter.. I have been listening to Hannah Barnes' Time to Think and today heard about a clinician who was taken to task for suggesting that sex was immutable. It occurred to me that those three words would be great for street epistemology: Sex is Immutable. 3-2-1- go.

You were in England & didn't visit me in Bridport. Shame on you Peter! It's beautiful down here in West Dorset, & there are a few things I would like to put you right on.

Next time! And in the meantime you can get to know me on Twitter: @rogerahicks
