US Futures Start The Week With More Wild Swing In Another Volatile, Illiquid Session After a rollercoaster week that ended just barely higher following a late meltup on Friday, overnight volatile US stock futures swung to start the week, with Nasdaq 100 futures leading gains after rallying on Friday, before turning red and threatening to fizzle a global equity rally amid persistent worries over the Federal Reserve’s plan to hike interest rates this year.

Greenwald: Pressure Campaign To Remove Joe Rogan From Spotify Reveals Liberal Religion Of Censorship Authored by Glenn Greenwald , American liberals are obsessed with finding ways to silence and censor their adversaries. Every week, if not every day, they have new targets they want de-platformed, banned, silenced, and otherwise prevented from speaking or being heard (by "liberals, I mean the term of self-description used by the dominant wing of the Democratic Party ). Joe Rogan interviews Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) on Aug. 6, 2019, roughly six months before he endorsed the Vermont independent for president. For years, their preferred censorship tactic was to expand and distort the concept of "hate speech to mean "views that make us uncomfortable, and then demand that such hateful views be prohibited on that basis. For that reason, it is now common to hear Democrats assert, falsely , that the First Amendment''s guarantee of free speech does not protect hate speech."

And then, because the tech industry and the media that chronicle its doings are basically herds of mimetic sheep, the metaverse was suddenly the newest new thing. This was news to Neal Stephenson, the writer who actually invented the term in his 1992 novel, Snow Crash . Since there seems to be growing confusion on this, he tweeted , I have nothing to do with anything that FB is up to involving the metaverse, other than the obvious fact that theyre using a term I coined in Snow Crash.
