* Social democrats and liberals largely did vote for geriatric conservative general Hindenburg as the "lesser evil" to prevent Hitler winning the presidency in 1932. Hindenburg won. He then appointed Hitler chancellor and repeatedly signed off on every measure the nazis needed to seize power.

Opinion: When Obama speaks, millions of people listen. If he truly believes that it is "undeniable" that Jews "took land off people," then he is an antisemitism superspreader.

Wow, could this because the public, who in general have no expertise on this question, have been relentlessly bombarded with hateful disinformation by the media, politicians, their hand-picked crank advisers, and now polling organisations?
Screenshot from BBC website:

Headilne: Wes Streeting 'completely wrong' about over-diagnosis, says review author

Picture: ADHD Autism review chair Prof Peter Fonagy in a dark grey suit sitting down in what appears to be an office

Text: The author of today's report, Prof Peter Fonagy, has been speaking to Radio 4's Today programme.

He starts by saying that former Health Secretary Wes Streeting - who first commissioned the review - was "with respect, completely wrong" when he talked about an over-diagnosis of mental health disorders.

His findings show that "there has been a rise in distress and mental ill health amongst young people which is very, very real," he says, noting that one in five cases require treatment.

Where on earth are White British people getting the idea that they can refuse to be treated by medical professionals of a different race, in a country where a sitting MP openly says, "We should deny trans people normal, expedient healthcare because my mother is a bigot." It must be the Russians.

once again reminded how the designer of the furby sincerely believes they are alive radiolab.org/podcast/more...
CALEB CHUNG: Well, I have to ask you, when is something alive? Furby can remember these events, they affect what he does going forward, and it changes his personality over time. He has all the attributes of fear or of happiness, and those are things that add up and change and change his behavior and how he interacts with the world. So how is that different than us?

JAD: Wait a second, though. Are you really gonna go all the way there?

CALEB CHUNG: Absolutely.

JAD: This is a toy with servo motors and things that move its eyelids and a hundred words.

CALEB CHUNG: So you're saying that life is a level of complexity. If something is alive, it's just more complex.

JAD: I think I'm saying that life is driven by the need to be alive, and by these base primal animal feelings like pain and suffering.

CALEB CHUNG: I can code that. I can code that.

Funny thing is that their definition of “biological sex” isn’t based on biology at all. It’s based on whatever they have written on your initial birth certificate, hidden away in a government file somewhere. Bureaucratic sex, really.

People on Twitter have unearthed a petition that Abdul El Sayed signed in 2012 urging Morsi to purge the police and army of Mubarak sympathizers. Made me like AES even more.

One of the forgotten aspects of WW2 is that after the war ended, over two million people left Britain for Canada, Australia etc. Lots of people did not want to stay and help rebuild Britain - they wanted to go live somewhere that hadn't been bombed to smithereens!

Underrated reason for the erosion of elite level support for Israel in Western states is Israel's steadfast refusal to adhere to the extremely pro-Israel agreements that the West procured on behalf of Israel at the expense of the credibility, time, and money of the West.

I was worried that I was getting a bit unhinged circa 2021, when I started to realise that the actual, real plan was to criminalise Palestinian solidarity as far as possible, because our ruling class understands it doesn’t have the public’s support or consent. And yet, and yet.

If a Palestinian objects to the ideology used to justify kicking them from their homes, or murdering their relatives: They are branded a racist. You can only turn the world on its head for so long.

Re the Sally Rooney news, I was looking up data on arrests under terrorism legislation the other day, and hadn't quite realised how utterly bonkers the effect of the Palestine Action prohibition had been. That big purple spike is basically all PA-related arrests.

I don’t have any idea what the solution to the bigger problem for literature is, but it strikes me as completely outrageous that the Atlantic would level such a serious charge against an author without an iota of actual evidence. And no, a black box analysis by another AI program is not evidence.
