it's outrageous the NYT called Scoot a racist like Charles Murray! also, Scoot agrees with race science, precisely as Murray does. Also, the leaked 2014 email is only outrageous if you hadn't read SSC - eviltoast

    That is not nice.

    Reminds me of the poetic reaction to the epic poem (1400+ lines) about May by Herman Gorter. In reaction to this Hendrik de Vries wrote: (Loosely translated, with the ABBBA rhyme scheme destroyed, im sorry)

    "Gorter, Gorter!

    I wanted to read your Maycanto

    But soon I was afraid

    That I, before I died, would not be able to finish it.

    Shorter! Shorter! Shorter!"

    OG in Dutch: "Gorter, Gorter!

    'k Heb uw Meizang willen lezen

    Maar begon al gauw te vrezen

    Dat het, voor mijn dood, niet uit zou wezen.

    Korter! Korter! Korter!"

    Not that relevant, but I always thought it was a fun story, and it is a nice piece of poetic shade thrown.

    Edit: formatting eurgh.
