Jeg er beinhard tilhenger av "struktur gruser kultur"-tilnærmingen til den sosiale virkeligheten, dvs. at roller, institusjoner og sosiale forventninger har mer å si for hva vi gjør enn hvilke verdier eller ideer man har i utgangspunktet. Men i tilfelle Toje/Thunberg tror jeg Doremus har rett

I don't know where this revisionism has come from about the suffragettes - people saying "if the suffragettes were around today, they'd be considered terrorists." The suffragettes were arrested and tortured, sexually assaulted and beaten by the state. They *were* considered terrorists!

We have decided to ban the use of GenAI for research, writing & creative work at our organization. In fact, we make people sign an agreement saying that their research, analysis, writing, and creative work are *theirs* and not done by GenAI.

people confuse leftists not being racist with them being in league with the people their not racists against

“Why might the left have created space for Muslims after 9/11,” a mystery that has puzzled political observers since time immemorial.

Hva er vel litt diaré mot gleden av å gi sosialistene fingern

Av alle idiotiske, kvasiintellektuelle tullebegreper som fordummer samtiden, er "ultraprosessert mat" blant de aller dummeste.

Part of same thing "it seems like in humans consciousness just appeared when sufficiently complex systems. So you can't rule it out for LLMs" Yes we can. The way it makes mistakes is exactly indicative of nonconciousness. Of a lack of any sense of comprehension of its inputs. And of self awareness.

as a girl with a PhD in natural language processing and machine learning it's actually offensive to me when you say "we don't know how LLMs work so they might be conscious" I didn't spend 10 years in mines of academia to be told ignorance is morally equal knowledge. We know exactly how LLMs work.

New WaPo poll — 61% of American Jews say Israel has committed war crimes against Palestinians. 39% say Israel is committing genocide in Gaza.

It'll never be lost on me that a particular subset of the liberal commentariat in both North America and Western Europe were deeply infatuated with this woman up until the very moment she decided to talk about that one issue you're still basically not allowed to talk about lol.

I'm not advocating that anyone in the climate movement tell anyone outside the climate movement to take individual action, a totally counterproductive message. I'm saying that, in spreading efficacious messages, we would be more trusted if we tried to live as we would live in a decarbonized world.

100%

Until people in the climate movement very publicly stop eating meat and flying, we're not going to seem trustworthy. I will die on this hill.

"Dette" er å redusere biltrafikk og skape hyggelige, menneskevennlige gater med gode forhold for myke trafikanter. Og folk lurer på hvorfor ikke MDG er så hypp på å samarbeide med Ap i Trondheim?

How many ICE does it take to illegally abduct a bicycle delivery guy? We’ll never know.

Say it often, say it loud: "Overall, research has not supported the common-sense presumption that digital approaches to schooling are better than non-digital alternatives. At the broadest level, widespread computer use in education has been found to be associated with lower student achievement."

Elsykkelen min får ikke lov til å hjelpe til i mer enn 25km/t, men det skal selvsagt fint gå an å kjøre bil i 200km/t i 50-sona rundt en ei skole. Det er på tide å slakte litt av den hellige bilkua. Vi kan starte med fartssperre.

everyone is learning about their world from screens that specifically tell them whatever narrative they will find most validating and provide them with endless rationales to ignore or explain away any facts that complicate the validating narrative. this is why politics has gone insane

Det grønne skiftet 🥰💚💚💚

The success of the far right is not only measured in votes and seats but in its impact on rhetoric, policy and ideology. The fact that a (nominally) social democratic head of government with a huge majority choses to say and do this is maybe the biggest success of the far right in Europe yet.

Ok, AI slop. Let's go. I took this for a spin to see how good it actually is 👇

A short 🧵 so everyone can learn that political violence is nothing new in America. Of the 1,331 Black officials who served during Reconstruction, 158 (10.4%) were subjected to political violence. 1/7

wrote about this last year and sure I wasn't in any way the only one but imo people voting for populist politics in the 21st century *is* a sign that they do just have too much faith in institutions, as opposed to not enough - they want to have their little tantrum but assume things will just hold

Heritage Foundation has released an absolutely insane policy proposal to label all trans people as domestic terrorists. It uses completely made up instances of terrorism and made up statistics but facts don't matter to them. They want us all eradicated.

Jeg er rasende. 2023: De tvinger ny firefelts motorvei gjennom Lågendeltaet naturreservat spesifikt verna mot veibygging. De framstiller det som at dette omtrent går i pluss for fuglene, for det kommer ei hel pakke miljøtiltak som kompensasjon. 2025: Det viktigste miljøtiltaket faller.

Here’s what a Ball State University employee said that led to their termination:

New Tyler Robinson posts leaked to me tell a very different story than you've heard before: www.kenklippenstein.com/p/exclusive-...

The extinction impact of the beef industry is immense. Eating even a little bit multiplies a diet’s impact on endangered species. insane chart from a new open access study comparing extinction impacts of different food production systems t.co/Nc7c8ynR0N

This is Musk actively inciting political violence.

Elon Musk spoke by video to Tommy Robinson's anti-immigrant rally in the UK today. "You're in a fundamental situation here where, whether you choose violence or not, violence is coming to you," said Musk. "You either fight back or you die."

Musk is fully behind political violence and the mainstream press will pretend this didn't just happen

NEJ, det finns inga bevis för att skytten var en groyper. Jag önskar att välmenande aktörer slutade sprida det, när vi med rätta dömer ut högertyper när de gör samma sak. Låt mig sammanfatta på ett ställe vad vi faktiskt vet om: 1: Groypers vs. Kirk 2: Memesen på patronhylsorna

like this is the most irresponsible level of hysteria i’ve ever seen. most of these people are either paid by the republican party, or are high level advisors and allies. this is insane

Fortfarande många frågetecken, men budskapen från skytten som amerikanska myndigheter gått ut med är olika former av ironiska gamer-memes som kan förekomma i nihilistiska/4chan-liknande sammanhang. Där finns det ibland högerextrema kopplingar, ibland inte.

Måten mediene omtaler Charlie Kirk på, reflekterer et større problem når vi snakker om ytre høyre, og ikke minst når vi snakker om USA. Det finnes to impulser: Enten å bruke ord som "høyreekstrem/-radikal" eller ord som "konservativ" eller "høyreaktivist" for å plassere en type som han. (1/9)

@eavigano.bsky.social, Bruno Della Salla, Stefan Stojkovic, & Nils-Christian Bormann: In interwar Italy, violence boosted Fascist support at the polls but weakened the radical left. Suggests violence asymmetrically empowers nationalist, radical-right parties. journals.sagepub.com/doi/full/10....

They only gave him one plane. What do they expect?

And all of the so called leaders of so called opposition rejoice as well, Gantz, Lapid, and surely Golan soon too. The consensus in Israeli politics is that no other country has sovereignty and no norms exist. There no doubt will come a day when Muscat, Cairo and even Ankara is bombed next.

Malapropos, men et annet Sp-spørsmål: Finnes det noen materialistisk/rasjonell aktør-forklaring på hvorfor Sp-velgerne forlot partiet i så stor grad, på tross av en ganske så historisk distriktssatsing fra Ap/Sp-regjeringen? Alternativ forklaring er vel at Sp-vinden sist handlet om vibes og protest

Finnes det noen oversikt noe sted over eksakt hvem som er antatt å komme inn på Stortinget? Lurer feks på hvordan Sps gruppe ser ut, med tanke på høyre/venstre-vipping hos dem. Og hvem er tredjeperson som ser ut til å komme inn hos Venstre?

Eg hadde gløymt kor store FrP var på 00-talet

Ok, Høyre er langt fra mitt parti, men måten Erna Solberg åpner valgnattstalen sin med å gratulere både Ap og Frp og så ønsker de rødgrønne lykke til med å styre er norsk demokrati på sitt aller beste.

Dette er jo ganske viktige opplysninger fra Agenda X og FpU sine påstander om hva som skjedde under skoledebatten på Bjørnholt VGS.
