“Ideas are not medicine.” - Thomas Ubiquitous, aka Infrarad
He’s stepping down as the mission director of Open Source Scientists, following what sounds like at-best political pressure from the Russians. OSS has been a dangerous group in the past to certain entrenched power structures, and the nebulous nature of their leadership has always offered a lot of protection - hard to kill what has no head and not a ton of nervous system.
As for the new mission brief: it’s gotta be a question of ReDs, right? Do they want to merge with one of the ReDs organizations and really make a stand on MyBO4, or are they going to continue with the broad tent approach? Are they really a biohacker’s union, or are they more of an open way-of-life effort, sort of a heavily-housed Unplugger thing?
I guess only the next mission director - could be you - can decide.
