Interesting one for @dsquareddigest.bsky.social: who should be accountable in this situation?

POV: you allowed people to talk about the labour theory of value in your subreddit www.reddit.com/r/Unlearning...

Anyone have that video of a woman at a town meeting or some such calling everyone woke soy boy beta cucks?

Watching the business class and some liberals suck up to Trump has made me more convinced than ever that social and cultural inequality should not be permitted, even on purely political grounds bsky.app/profile/ones...

Rory Sutherland talks a lot of nonsense doesn’t he. First major point he makes is that public transport makes people less sociable than driving a car!? open.spotify.com/episode/7z9p...

I love receiving emails which basically amount to 'hey, I would like to insert myself between you (a person who actually produces things) and a source of money, so I can have some of the money'

This is the iron law of the current social media landscape: the extent to which the algorithmic sorting and incentives infrastructure is affecting the output we're exposed to is grossly misunderstood by all participants - even the Very Experienced At This Online Thing ones

how this is supposed to be exculpatory is beyond me. “no no no, we’re starving the *sick* children”

Also centralization isn’t the enemy you think it is , it’s lack of accountability . A decentralized network that’s unaccountable is no better than a centralized one

Situation on 14th St and W St. NW, with federal agents -- no specific agency identified -- pulling cars over for checks. They arrested a Black woman in this car. BIG crowd of people shouting at police. "Fuck you!" "What is wrong with you!" "You don't need to terrorize people like this!"

In 2016, before Trump secured the GOP nomination, the Boston Globe made a fictional dystopian front page of what a nightmare world it would be if Trump won. And those just pretty much are our actual headlines now.

a fun game to play with BLS numbers is to go “that’s stupid, why do they do it that way” and then go find the paper explaining why they do it that way to see if you still think it’s stupid, and if you do, you win I am like 0 for 19 lifetime at this game
