Zelensky is not Soros’ cousin

We remind you again to sign up for the European Skeptics Congress! It’s going to be great!

In other news, Darwin’s iconic ‘evolution as a tree’-notebook has been mysteriously returned which is good news in a pink bag. Our notes on conversion therapy last week got some terfs really upset on Twitter, but of course they get it all wrong. For TWISH we celebrate the birth of Christiaan Huygens, a true spirit of the enlightenment already in the 17th century. No poking this week, so we then dive into the news:

  • INTERNATIONAL: Homeopathy Awareness Week
  • UKRAINE: Zelensky not related to Soros
  • INTERNATIONAL: Pinterest to ban climate misinformation
  • UK: Anglo-European College of Chiropractic offering MSc course

To round off, the charity organisation ‘Thinking Autism’ promotes CEASE therapy and anti-vaxx nonsense and so they get his week’s Really Wrong award.

Enjoy!

    “There are many degrees of Probable, some nearer Truth than others, in the determining of which lies the chief exercise of our Judgment.”
