Whenever anyone tries the "censorship of Nazis doesn't help" bullshit, ask for the proof. This is squarely in "extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence" territory & never forget there is a certain sector of the population who are very invested in Nazis not being deplatformed - i.e. Nazis

Reminder that Substack doesn't just allow repellent views, it actively encouraged them to sign up by wooing certain voices with guaranteed payouts from its Pro service. This is not an impartial decision.

This was always the plan. Reduce degrees to salary leverage and then start seeding the idea that vocational training is basically the same thing, and then people will buy the idea that forcing working/lower middle kids to have no choice about their educational opportunities is good, actually.

If you've wondered why UK Labour appointed an ex-Amazon executive to chair the competition authority and handed over the entire creative industries' work to big tech barons and AI grifters, @petergeoghegan.bsky.social has the receipts: "this level of corporate influence undermines democracy."

You know you can just not use AI, right? You can make a choice not to be part of this. Even if your job uses it, YOU don’t have to in your normal life. You don’t have to let your kids use it. You didn’t have it three years ago. You can just…be on Team Human. You can choose.

This seems like a great day to remind Bluesky that Stephen Miller lived four doors down from me freshman year And our student council person asked him (and everyone) to sign a birthday card for our dorm’s janitor And he threw a tantrum and wrote an op-ed about not socializing with “the help.”

I think the interesting thing - and the point which can't be made enough, alas - is that it's a tool designed to confuse people who don't understand how the tool works (the opposite of classic UI design, right?) That is not something that can be shrugged off for a mass market tool.

I've always enjoyed the 18th century Royal Navy's attitude towards putting guns onto islets and then immediately redefining them as ships. Yes, we know it may look like an island, with all the trees and rocks and stuff, but it's actually a sloop-of-war.
