Tangential Post | Credit, Where Credit Is… Due: Martin Shkreli At Least Gets An “A” — For Effort, On Speaking To Philistines…

We have been pretty strident — in our coverage critical of Mr. Shkreli’s crimes and civil antitrust conspiracies. We stand by all of that. But to be fair, he tries from time to time — to rehab his reputation. This week, it is by arguing with Neanderthals, over on X-itter, about the actual bio-science of… human gender. [Not some quasi-biblical misinterpretation of the same.]

Admittedly, it is only on one topic.

But I will give him credit… for at least trying.

Yesterday, into today, he tried to pick a fight with a group of “Flat-Earther” people on X-itter, those who think they understand gender’s bioscience. Or the Bible — or something.

I applaud the effort, Martin — and you are right on the DNA/genome science you offer.

But you are speaking to a social media site increasingly populated by morons and trolls — some beholden to Russian oligarchs, and to Tangerine, of course.

That is by design, under Elon Musk. A feature, not a bug.

So — I wish him well — but it is a waste of… electrons, and breath. Just migrate to Blue sky, or Counter.Social or Mastodon, man.

Word to the wise.

Out.
