Not to belabour the point, as others have made it, but a lot of the social scientific takes on the Belfast pogroms emanating from England and placing them in a pattern with recent race riots *in* England, don’t really take specificities like this into account.

When utilized in literature review, LLMs consistently 1. fail to mention female authors in female-led literatures, 2. insist that men are more influential or more heavily cited when this is contradicted by objective citation counts, and 3. attribute women’s work to hallucinated male scholars.

Shocking moments in Turkish history as Kemal Kılıçdaroğlu, once well-liked opposition CHP leader likened to "Gandhi" and former presidential candidate, forces his way into CHP headquarters in Ankara with police, tear gas... K.K. replaced Özgür Özel against CHP's will, with a court decision last week
