An excellent review of Oppenheimer.
https://www.takimag.com/article/thin-man/
I take issue with the characterization of Oppenheimer's "near-infallibility of judgment," though.
He led a seminar at the Institute for Advanced Studies at Princeton about the Bohm-de Broglie Pilot Wave Theory of Quantum Mechanics with the goal of disproving it. After several hours where the assembled physicists were unable to poke any holes in it, Oppenheimer was reported to have said "since we can't disprove it, we'll have to agree to ignore it."

...he concluded the interview by implying that the Police were a psy-ops outfit who played shows to “70,000 young minds open to whatever the Police decide to put into them”.
“You know it got old Sting on a bad day,” Stewart says, tickled by the memory. “He knew my father very well, and he regrets it now but he took adversely the suggestion that he was a CIA pawn.”

Coups, lies, dirty tricks: The Police's Stewart Copeland on his CIA agent father
The drummer was brought up in the Middle East – not realising that his father Miles was a spy sent to destabilise the region. But, he says, it was Miles’s claim that the Police were a psy-ops outfit that upset Sting

The Security Service of Ukraine has granted CNN exclusive access to footage showcasing the naval drone attack on the Kerch Bridge, which took place on July 17.
Vasyl Malyuk, the head of the Security Service of Ukraine, revealed that the surface drone responsible for the attack is a fully Ukrainian creation known as the "Sea Baby." Remarkably, this innovation was developed within just a few months following the onset of the Russian invasion.

EMFs A Possible Human Carcinogen
Authored by Marina Zhang via The Epoch Times (emphasis ours),
Many people know ultraviolet rays and X-rays can cause cancer.
These are high-frequency, ionizing electromagnetic fields (EMFs). Ionizing EMFs are considered carcinogenic, while nonionizing EMFs, such as Wi-Fi, Bluetooth signals, and fields from electronic devices, are generally not. This perception has prevailed in the public mindset for decades.
(Creations/Shutterstock)However, there’s limited awareness that certain nonionizing EMFs are also classified by the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) as class 2B carcinogens—a category indicating potential human carcinogenicity.

THE THREE RULES OF GROUPTHINK
1. ILLUSION
A group of people come to share a belief that is not based in reality: an illusion.
2. CONSENSUS
As the belief does not match external reality, the group of people resort to hanging onto the only thing they have, a consensus between them that the illusion is reality. From this point, the illusion's main justification becomes this "consensus".
3. INTOLERANCE
Any external person to the groupthink with a different view needs to be silenced because the "consensus" becomes the only defence of the illusion. Therefore the groupthink group resorts to censorship, intimidation, and "cancelling" all critical opinions.

FAKE BINARY
"A fake binary refers to a situation in which people are presented with only two opposing options, but those options are oversimplified or misleading.
It creates a false dichotomy, making it seem like these two options are the only possibilities when, in reality, there may be more nuanced or diverse perspectives.
For example, imagine a political debate where two candidates are portrayed as representing completely opposite ideologies. The media or public discourse might present them as the only viable options, creating a fake binary.
Such an oversimplification ignores the existence of alternative candidates or positions.
A fake binary can limit critical thinking and understanding by narrowing the discussion to only two choices.
It can hinder meaningful dialogue, suppress alternative viewpoints, and prevent the exploration of more complex and inclusive solutions to societal issues."
