        Dear Mr.Pinker, big fan of your books! My heart got a little broken reading the misinformation about my home Catalonia...

        People in Catalona (particularly secessionists!) have been demonstrating en masse to receive refugees, and it's very progressive area.

        Canada wasn't censoring websites, detaining high ranking politicians, sacking the entire Quebec Parliament, or dehumanizing its citizens

        Are you going for the "Einstein" look? Or, blame the photographer?

        👍👌 But you’re too modest about your rhetoric skills... My heart was pounding with intellectual emotion as I was reading 😁

        Religion, autoritarism, despise of Science, etc reads more conservative than progressive to me

        Always something to learn from Pinker. Also how not to (completely) play into the hands of biased journalism. She "almost" got the selfie.

        Aren't you biased too? Seems so to me, and also jealous for not being able to reach Pinker as se could do by herself

        I'd love to hear you discuss Brexit with David Deutsch, who sees it as a step to faster error correction and not as regressive nationalism
