Chris Wilson @chriswilson100.bsky.social · 08/10/2026In your view is 'lightweight charlatan' a good thing or a bad thing? If it's bad why are you giving the time of day to Gove? Next week: a jolly chat with Rupert Lowe. 020
Chris Wilson @chriswilson100.bsky.social · 07/10/2026There is no version of reality in which I would listen to a vindictive bigot who takes pleasure in punching down at the vulnerable. Tells us a lot about your moral compass. 000
Chris Wilson @chriswilson100.bsky.social · 03/10/2026Isn't this downstream from a failure to nail down an agreed definition of conscious? I'm not buying "there's something it's like to be conscious". I'm not buying anything that isn't an emergent property of the brain. But these debates aren't settled yet. Also: pan-psychism - my arse. 001
Chris Wilson @chriswilson100.bsky.social · 03/10/2026You have to proactively define your folders, define default locations for saving and, in the name of all that is holy, give your files informative names (ie not Document Final v2). 030

Chris Wilson @chriswilson100.bsky.social · 29/09/2026Pure speculation: he sincerely believed that the country was not broken and therefore what was needed was more competent administration of the status quo, to be achieved by putting the right people in charge. Therefore a shopping list of technocratic interventions was all that was needed. 100

Chris Wilson @chriswilson100.bsky.social · 24/09/2026Surely at least part of this is about ownership. What differentiates, say, the FT or the Guardian from, say, the Times or the Mail is who and how they are owned. Thinking of the press as journalists seeking the truth rather than owners seeking influence might not always be the best way to understand 011
Chris Wilson @chriswilson100.bsky.social · 23/09/2026What does ethnicity mean? Race has been debunked as a legitimate category. So is ethnicity smuggling it back in? Otherwise is ethnicity just culture? In what sense do I have the same culture as Jacob Rees-Mogg? You're English if you claim to be. 100

Chris Wilson @chriswilson100.bsky.social · 20/09/2026Good to see a Labour minister pushing back and disagreeing with people. Standing up for what you believe and a making an argument is better than constantly trying to avoid disagreement. Some people are just wrong and you're right to say so. 000
Chris Wilson @chriswilson100.bsky.social · 17/09/2026Do you know anybody in government? Maybe you could persuade them to your view.

Chris Wilson @chriswilson100.bsky.social · 08/09/2026In 1976/77 some liked punk and some didn't. And then punk (apparently) changed everything. You then had a generation of journos paralysed by the fear of missing the next big thing, or being caught liking the terminally uncool. They couldn't just say what they thought.
