Do you know what happened to the academics who signed the Peace Petition 10 years ago? Here it is in a nutshell 👇

Hitler had the Sturmabteilung (SA), Mussolini had the Blackshirts. Fascist regimes always use special forces to bake banalized violence into the system. Today, that’s ICE—Trump’s own paramilitary squad.

ICE aren’t police, they are a terrorist group who take orders from a criminal traitor.

AI presents a fundamental threat to our ability to use polls to assess public opinion. Bad actors who are able to infiltrate panels can flip close election polls for less than the cost of a Starbucks coffee. Models will also infer and confirm hypotheses in experiments. Current quality checks fail

The far right is obsessed with Lord of the Rings and Musk keeps posting about "hobbits" because modern scientific racism owes more to fantasy worlds and gaming systems than genetic science, and they see both as effective mediums for right-wing propaganda www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2025/1...

For years, but especially for the past year, Democrats have been in thrall to the idea that they need to chase an imagined median voter, and adopt that voter’s positions. Mamdani’s victory shows another way: hold principles, and persuade people to share them.

Mamdani: "New York will remain a city of immigrants, a city built by immigrants, powered by immigrants, and as of tonight, led by an immigrant."

Our colleague, social psychologist Dr. Aslı Aydemir, has been in prison for over 3 months, and an indictment has still not been prepared against her. Aslı was arrested for reacting to a group that attacked the office of a satire magazine on June 30, 2025! She's a hostage of Erdoğan regime!

Going to post a few readings relating to social psychological analyses of discourses of 'effortfulness', 'earned citizenship' and migration as it seems like they might be relevant right now. First, here's Andreouli & Dashtipour (2014) onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10....
