Philosophers of Science be like:

The problem is that we forget science is also an ideology, and we must fight for it, organise. Also, science is not a monolith, and it has made many mistakes.

"In China you have capitalists, but you don't have a capitalist class. They are not allowed to create their media, they are not allowed to control political parties" Great answer to a question I'm asked a lot when I try to explain the difference between markets and capitalism.

Ancestry DNA has always been a scam tailored to racists. It has never been reliable because the product it offers is complete racist nonsense.

The only way you would ever get me to support AI is if we agree to abolish all IP laws. Prescription drugs, technology, software, characters, seeds. Lets go all the fucking way. And even then, AI would still suck, but at least it wouldn't be theft.

"It is not only violence and intimidation that keep El Presidente in power. It is the stupefying inversion of reality, the daily denial of what we perceive and its replacement by disorienting fictions that keep us off balance." Hedges takes the right approach, consulting latinoamerican literature.

It literally is impossible to do parody nowadays. How do you top this comment?

Palestinian woman Umm Zuhri Shweiki was forcibly expelled from her home in occupied East Jerusalem by Israeli forces, who seized and emptied her house before handing it to Israeli settlers.

US and UK men (because of course you only hear about this shit in these countries) are the biggest babies ever. Can't believe they need this constant level of coddling.

Finally got around to watching @jessiegender.bsky.social 2:20 hr video on liberal centrism. A good 2 hour warmup to the last 20 min. Good watch.

What a woman!

every generation loves Rumours. it’s fucking Rumours

One of the weirdest things about a vasectomy is the homework they give you.

"It used to be that the work place was a place for men to get away from their nagging wives and hang out with their cool bosses. Now, it's all harassment this or sexism that, all the while they lower wages by doing a better job for less."

lol

Mamdani tomorrow:

New epistemology just dropped!

Good morning. I took Elon’s Wikipedia competitor for a test drive and you won’t believe what I found (you will believe what I found) www.sfgate.com/sf-culture/a...

Not one organized attack on ICE during their ilegal raids tells me this is just cosplaying, same as right wingers. Mere gun ownership provides no real power and no real safety.

How is thay "freedom-of-speech-no-matter what-or-who" going?

Industrialized human trafficking by a paramilitary group. Why does that sound familiar?

2350 years ago, Plato told us about this exact same thing.

Ser ornitologo en ingles debe ser horrible, imaginate decir que vas al campo porque quieres ver un Bigtit Cocksucker o que tu ave favorita es el Southern Facefucker o algo asi

11/16. As soon as I remembered libertarians exist, it made more sense. Some people though...yikes.

This is why modal logic is important. So, □ or ◇?

"Except the anti-trans stuff. That's just anti-women, and that's cool with me"

Most economists live in an apolitical world, where their recommendations are neutral. They then act surprised when we get more austerity.

We are at Korean propaganda war at this point. Maybe canadians should put giant speakers over the border an play Reagan speeches.

I think one of the worst problems of our reality is the fact that being an avid reader doesn't make you a better person. How fucked up is that? How can a person read a lot and not become a more empathic human? Wdym you read a lot of history? You're awful!! You're the least curious person I know!!

No. Don't do this. This is not some innevitable truth. There have been plenty dictators who have died of old age, rich, and with support. History will not take care of the problem. Fight now.

This is great.

They are making it acceptable to slap the glasses off from complete strangers.

Is Trump crashing the plane gifted by the Qataris onto the WH? American politics are weird.

Top comedy happening at Riyadh.

Funny thing about interacting with americans is that you get to hear them justify why their center-left candidates say thing like "We will have the most lethal military" or "I didn't know this was a Nazi tatoo".

Might the guy who joined the secret police that kidnaps foreigners and only answers to dear leader also be a Nazi?? Here's an analysis of what his tatoo may tell us.

But why skulls?!

7 million? Those are rookie numbers.

100% Trump will take this as a challenge to close the National Mall.

When you say you're pro-market and you want to strengthen ties with the US, I doubt your commitment to both markets and democracy. I wonder which of Trumps' cronies will be the one to get the mining rights.

Something like Yoshua, or maybe Yaweh or Jehova.

If Trump manages to motivate US citizens into a general strike, accelerationism wins.

White Americans really need to take a good look at their history.

Nothing like a full english. With potatoes, tomatoes and beans, all from the american continent.

That 3rd browser window with the 20 tabs you have from two weeks ago? Let it go. Please let it go. You don't even remember what they are about. 80% of the tabs have logged you out. It will be a chore just to check. Just close it. Let it rest.

I've been reading philosophy of economics in english for so long that when I recently read some in spanish (my native language), it felt strangely jarring. Like watching a good dub of an anime: it's good, I'm just used too used to the other voice actors.

I'm fascinated by the international consensus that Israel is akin to a psychotic, demented, sadistic actor and that whomever is at the receiving end of its criminal, abusive actions somehow deserves it for antagonizing the madman we definitely need to support.
