Last week @rachelkleinfeld.bsky.social and I put out a provocation & set of suggestions on how influence has changed and why institutions (& funders) need to change their thinking on shaping public opinion and connecting w/audiences. The old way no longer works. carnegieendowment.org/research/202...

I am advocating for you to be killed but I am using my inside voice you must debate me this is called democracy

This sounds like DEI to me.

Man, this season of “Who Killed Charlie?” Has more twists and turns than a balloon animal at a kids birthday party.

The fetishization of the subversive—the next Galileo, or Einstein, or Tesla—is something PragerU is intent on teaching not just to adults but to kids as well. I had a look at the science/med content on PragerU for @mcgilloss.bsky.social. The contradictions are wild. www.mcgill.ca/oss/article/...

I see that Marty Makary is in the news. I just wrote about his PragerU interview. If you want to see how wildly ignorant he seems to be, have a look. www.mcgill.ca/oss/article/...

He's right, and it's not just Brazil. Around the world, at least 31 democratic leaders who committed similar crimes have been jailed or banned from office since 2010. The failure to hold Trump accountable in the US was a unique and systemic failure of our institutions and political culture.

Bolsonaro was just found guilty. 🇧🇷 On Tuesday we dropped a Lawfare Daily episode: a 101 explainer on the trial, the Trump tariffs, and the intersection with tech policy. Hear from @laismartins.com, @joanbarata.bsky.social, and @jgorgen.bsky.social www.lawfaremedia.org/article/lawf...

Why are the sheeple wearing masks outside? Don’t they know they’re not needed out there?

“One of my hobbies,” Derek Beres jokes, “is to go websites, click on the studies, and then read them.” But it wasn't actually a joke! 😂 My talk from Creative Mornings in March is now online. www.youtube.com/watch?v=bSrQ...

Listen here www.npr.org/2025/07/24/n...

Trump: “It looks like it’s about $3.1 billion…” Powell: “I’m not aware of that.” Trump: “It just came out.” Powell: “You are including the Martin renovation. You just added in a third building.” Trump: “It’s a building that's being built.” Powell: “No, it was built five years ago.”

We just had to cover this, and had some interesting moments of disagreement discussing Mamdani's skillful political communication about third rail topics like the slogans "defund the police" and "globalize the intifada!" www.conspirituality.net/episodes/264...

You knew it was coming! www.conspirituality.net/episodes/bri...

If she resigns, they’ve learned nothing. You will never live up to the standards of bad-faith extremists actively seeking to get you fired. Whatever documents you turn over will be used to punish you - they’ll never serve to exonerate you. Learn from the history. www.wsj.com/us-news/educ...

Just a reminder of one of the things Joe Biden did for us last Pride. He pardoned all the LGBT+ service members wrongly convicted. We've gone from this, to a President and administration that seeks to ban LGBT+ service members all together. The two sides are NOT the same. #Pride #LGBT

Has the efficacy of Nonviolent Resistance been debunked? Was it all a psy-op? My Patreon episode this week responds to Benjamin Case's interview from last month about his book Street Rebellion—which makes a case for rioting as "contentious effervescence." www.patreon.com/posts/has-no...

Kennedy’s MAHA maneuvers, despite claims of being about health, are really a cover for Project 2025’s deregulatory agenda. www.conspirituality.net/episodes/259...

Lol, I wonder why. "Representatives for the investment firm and HHS did not respond to requests for comments, including questions about how so many Andreessen Horowitz entrepreneurs wound up in the same room." www.statnews.com/2025/05/20/k...

New MS-13 knuckle tattoo loyalty test

Another very simple message: Vaccines keep school children from dying of preventable diseases. Vaccine requirements are up to the states to decide — so go fuck yourself, Kennedy. Parents, wake up. You need to organize. Don’t let the MAHA nuts be the only organized voices in your legislature.

Woke pope, or conservative figurehead in a funny hat? Plus— did JD Vance Kill Pope Francis and usher in the end times, and (jokes aside) what kinds of tension might Pope Leo instigate with Trump? www.conspirituality.net/episodes/258...

In the media’s rush to cover the nomination of Casey Means to the position of Surgeon General, one important name was neglected. Dr. Vinay Prasad is the FDA’s new vaccine chief. His arrogance and contrarianism are worrying. My latest for @mcgilloss.bsky.social www.mcgill.ca/oss/article/...

Hey, but at least I also now live in the largest US city that doesn’t fluoridate the public drinking water.

Nice dig (but also accurate) calling "Good Energy" a memoir by @kcd.bsky.social Casey Means's infamous residency was here in PDX, so I'm glad it's getting local coverage. I've subscribed to @oregonian.com since moving here in 2022; always solid reporting. www.oregonlive.com/health/2025/...

Reading the story about the woman in Georgia who is brain dead and on a vent but not allowed to die with dignity because she was 9 weeks pregnant when she was declared brain dead. Even in death, our bodies are not our own. State-owned property.

The latest MAHA fight has me doing math and agreeing with Laura Loomer 🤦🏻‍♂️ It also shows just how egregious MAHA activists are with their claims. youtu.be/vZnD5YpkzzY

There is not a single congressional district in the U.S. where more than 15% of voters support cuts to Medicaid.

Maybe gurus and New Age channelers are next to lose their jobs to the robots. What could go wrong with an insular technological mirror for narcissistic spiritual revelation?! www.conspirituality.net/episodes/267...

I don’t get how the Free Press doesn’t feel the smallest modicum of embarrassment acting as if Bhattacharya was “”censored by the government”” when a literal SCOTUS decision found that there was no evidence to justify him having any standing to bring the case at all. No govt official mentioned him!

MAGA’s: we voted against deep state corruption! Trump: check out my $400M jet—a gift from the slave-powered economy of Qatar.

Sci fi pet peeve: within minutes of being established as the scientific genius, a character references a quantum physics misinterpretation worthy of Gwyneth Paltrow quoting Deepak Chopra. #TheElectricState

It begins with a failed human sacrifice in Detroit in 1932. Actually, it starts with an evil god-scientist creating the first white people—some 6,000 years ago. Either way, this UFO-religion has had an important cultural/political presence for 93 years in America. www.patreon.com/posts/ufo-ra...

Bouncing around with 5 books: The Nightmare Years -William Shirer (1930s) Origins of Totalitarianism- Hannah Arendt Munich 1938 Windall (a good mining stock scandal) and for the new US Surgeon General I picked up Conspirituality. It is freaking the s-t out of me. www.goodreads.com/book/show/62...

Framing, in comms, is how info is selectively presented... Counted -> "Targeted" Public research study -> "Internal docs" Presentation -> "Confession" That's how Mike Benz reframes something basic- "EIP tallied tweets in our report" -as nefarious. He does this constantly. It's the whole game.
