NEW IDSG NEWS EP: @danielharper.bsky.social tells me about Tucker and Algebra, and The Kirkaversary, and I tell him about the last month in UK Fascism (i.e. Reform UK's money, Dover 'protests', Danny Tommo, and Piddington secedes) linking back to last ep. idontspeakgerman.libsyn.com/news-roundup...

Wahey, @danielharper.bsky.social & I just recorded an interesting curio of a newsy episode, taking in Tucker Carlson's thoughts on algebra, a report from me on This Month in UK Fascism, and some ruminations on the Kirkaversary.

Weiss's target demo throughout her entire career has been wealthy metro-area elites who are very racist and hate their more liberal neighbors, and if you have half a brain and aren't one of those guys yourselves, it would be extremely obvious that's a self-limiting population.

social media is not "just wanting to communicate with your friends". And Taylor knows it. This is a deliberate denial of basic reality, and a large body of science on how algorithmic social media can harm kids in particular.

The problem is that "while you weren't looking the tech industry was comprehensively taken over by a cult based around a piece of Harry Potter fanfic" is self-evidently an absolutely ridiculous claim that can't possibly have happened, which is a real problem given that it 100% did happen.

It is a mark of the creeping fascism we live under that the "moderates" definitionally are going to move further right. To blithely accept this is to fundamentally give in to the worst of the worst.

Someone does not remember 1) gay people are still discriminated against in many ways in this country, even where it's "illegal" 2) the very militant wing of the gay rights movement for decades, that was quietly papered over by wealthy gays who just wanted to get the tax benefits of marriage.

This is a powerful story from a trans Texan (who's also quite a talented independent journalist). I've been arguing that trans people have the right to be upset with Talarico, and I think we do. This is the case for vote for him anyway, eloquently made, and by someone with the standing to make it.

this is not true. in the 80s & 90s, you used to be able to travel INSIDE a computer -- like Tron! You could move around like in a city. Hacking was more like burglarizing a second hand store, even if it was the FBI! They later removed the supernatural components of computer, we still don't know how.

Because they don't care if what they're told is true or not as long as it furthers their interests or justifies their hatreds. To the Right, 'true' means 'profits me' or 'conforms to my intuitions'. 'I believe this' means 'this makes me happy'. They'd rather be told lies they like than hear truth.
