I found 20 quid outside the supermarket and I felt a little bit guilty as I picked it up, so because it’s Good Friday I thought to myself, “What would Jesus do?”. So I turned it into wine...

7/ Some of the opposition to AI and its use in writing is status protection dressed up as principle. Resistance often reflects institutional gatekeeping, not genuine intellectual concern. We should evaluate the quality of the product carefully regardless of whether it's 100% human-produced.

So… you guys are only okay with football teams that represent nations whose governments are left-leaning to choose US cities where mayors are democrats as their base camps? Wha… why? So, Brazil was okay, but not Argentina?

Deren Onursal @derenonursal.bsky.social · 04/02/2026

It is indeed contextual, my beloved and best Canadian friend, and context here is the regime type, specifically democracy. Disruptive* protests are surely effective** when the regime is democracy. *violence. ** accommodation of demands by the government.

Deren Onursal @derenonursal.bsky.social · 03/02/2026

Yeah, professional activists might not be a great term, but we can trifurcate protesters as conservatives, moderates, and radicals based on individuals’ level of tolerance for the costs attached to protest behavior, which would help us explain why some protesters are willing to engage in violence.

Deren Onursal @derenonursal.bsky.social · 03/02/2026

Nah. In democracies, protester violence will almost surely reduce public support, but it is more likely to lead governments to accommodate the demands of protesters — though how we define protester violence is quite important. I agree with the rest of the thread. Im shamelessly self-promoting.
