Pinkerite is 6 years old

The big news of the year of course was that the race pseudoscience candidate Donald Trump is back in power in spite of being a rapist, a traitor and a felon 34 times over. He's ready to destroy American democracy,

I am curious to see Steven Pinker's reaction - last I heard he was not a fan of Trump in spite of so many of his IDW fellow travelers being on the side of fascism - but I can't be bothered to go look on Twitter anymore and see if he tweeted about it. It's such garbage thanks to Musk.

The second biggest news is the banger of an expose on Emil Kirkegaard and his racist machinations from Hope not Hate. 

And also that the International Society for Intelligence Research (ISIR) let  Kirkegaard participate in its conference this year. 

I created a database of people mentioned in all ISIR conference programs.

And last November Kirkegaard was in German news for his connection to the German fascist political organization Alternative für Deutschland.

So what else have I talked about in the past year?

• I discovered who Marc Andreessen is. Ugh.
• I created a Rational Wiki article for Richard Haier.
• I wrote about the Neo-Nazi connections of the ISIR
• I wrote about Richard Jensen, patron saint of the ISIR, and his feeble "science" 
• I was one degree from Rachel Maddow (sort of) thanks to John Jackson
• I discovered that ANTIFA has been doing the work the FBI should be doing in monitoring and countering far-right racist organizations. And thanks to the Trump election, they will likely continue to do the FBI's work.
• Steve Sailer was sued, Pinkerite got a third citation and Jerry Seinfeld was palling around with Bari Weiss.
