Which guy? The one who had a youtube, the one who wrote the article, or professional war crimes guy who investigated the youtuber?

I read part of the article because I didn't know who chalamet is and thought It was going to be about a war criminals YouTube channel.

How disappointing

Is a time honored tradition that people with horrible tastes meet in a single place on the internet. Angelfire, Geocities, Facebook.

People argue that Facebook is the problem. Where I say is a blessing, otherwise you would have these people in every website of the internet. Having them in a single place make easier to ignore them.

that's a nice thought, but facebook (and youtube, twitter, & other "algorithm"-driven companies) does also provably radicalize and by extension cause real world atrocities that could have been avoided with more conscientious moderation

Yes they are functionally clones of either mom's entire genome or parts of it. Random mutation will happen but not enough to really provide genetic diversity without new individuals.

There is/was an Attenborough show on Netflix called Natural Curiousites and one episode had a segment on komodo dragon parthenogenesis, where the eggs produced by parthenogenesis are all male, which helps when there are too many females but useless if it's just one lone female.
