From his X account today:

How the Left-Wing Smear Machine Works

Recently, I wrote an article about the polio vaccine hypothesis regarding the origin of AIDS. (https://aporiamagazine.com/p/origins-of-aids-the-polio-vaccine…) In that context, I reached out to Edward Hooper, who wrote a book about it titled The River. Given that it's a work about a hypothesis suggesting an experimental vaccine was the cause of the AIDS epidemic, Ed Hooper is no stranger to controversy.

So it was to my surprise, that his response was that he did not want to discuss the article with me. The reasoning being that he googled my name and found my Rational Wiki page, which labels me as "far right" and says that I have "argued that non-Western immigrants commit more rape and violence," and similar. Hooper saw this as a reason to avoid involvement, partly because he was concerned that engaging with me might harm the cause of the polio vaccine hypothesis.

So the Rational Wiki slander worked. How did I acquire a page on this website? The reason was that last Christmas, when Claudine Gay was President of Harvard, I dared to sit down and read her most important paper. I found that her research approach was flawed (https://x.com/jonatanpallesen/status/1740812627163463842…), and that she had removed data points that contradicted her hypothesis in an illegitimate manner (https://x.com/jonatanpallesen/status/1749546447811277119…). These critiques were shared by Christopher Rufo, gaining them wide reach.

The controversy around Claudine Gay was a big story at the time. So when The Guardian heard of these critiques, they quickly sprang into action to... imply that I was racist. They also wrote a long section about how I have collaborated with @KirkegaardEmil . There was no consideration of my serious scientific criticism of an influential figure. Instead, they published an article about me, a completely unimportant figure. This was then a source for Rational Wiki, which Google makes sure has excellent page rank.

The reason The Guardian made the article about me instead of the much more important figure Claudine Gay, is that it's not about newsworthiness. It's about suppression of dissent. Claudine Gay is deemed good because she supports woke orthodoxy, and thus, I am bad for criticizing her. They can't address my scientific criticisms, nor can they make it illegal for me to post them. But what they can do, is make it costly for people to forward such critiques, by making a Google search of my name look bad in the eyes of people like Hooper, or potential employers.

I do find it amusing these nutjobs always complain of "smears" despite all RationalWiki does is quote their own words. Most of the article quotes Pallesens' racist tweets. — Unsigned, by: 149.28.179.232 / talk / contribs

We desperately need an article on the concept of butthurt. --Luigifan18 (talk) 23:55, 30 August 2024 (UTC)
I made some improvements to article. He's even more insane than I originally thought with tweets like these. 149.28.179.232 (talk) 02:16, 31 August 2024 (UTC)

Another frivolous legal complaint to Google?[edit]

I don't follow this guy (I primarily focus on eugenicists and although this guy is one he does not much write about it; his fixation appears to be migrant crime or manipulating migrant crime statistics to fit his racist POV) although I came across the following which was linked to on social media and tagged the RationalWiki X account:

I then decided to check Lumen Database and found the following:

https://lumendatabase.org/notices/46236197

It is very likely based on the timing this was sent by Pallesen since the report was filed from Denmark.

I consider this to be a frivolous complaint. Pallesen is a white nationalist but does not want to be called one because of the stigma attached to the label. A commentator on his blog hit the nail on the head:

Dude almost your entire X account is dedicated to opposing non-white immigration and you claim you support increasing fertility rates in Europe. On top of that you identify with "HBD". You believe in the same things as white nationalists do - so why dispute the label? If it looks like a duck, swims like a duck, and quacks like a duck, then it probably is a duck.... The core WN tenets are opposition to non-White immigration, European pro-natalism and belief in "human-biodiversity". You tick all the boxes.
