Think about how with deskilling, there's a chance the person affected might go "wait, I used to be able to do this, what the fuck happened to me?" Whereas with such as "no-schooling" kids, the kids never learn how to read in the first place and have *nothing* to compare as a baseline

I mean "enjoy the camps" also tells you this person's limits of political engagement. They will vote against Put You In A Camp because they're a good person, but when the workers show up to build the camp they won't stop it, when the guards show up to take their neighbours away they won't stop it.

underrated part of El-Sayed’s messaging strategy seems to be shaming journalists who ask dumb questions that play into right-wing frames. you can’t answer these in a way that satisfies them, but you can make it embarrassing enough that you impose a toll on asking.
Abdul El-Sayed: "Weijia, with all due respect, this is the third time you've asked about a Twitch streamer ... their whole game is to make us fight culture wars so that we don't pay attention to the fact the president has made $2.2 billion ... "

Also, lesson from the front lines of Gamergate: since they don't really give a shit about women's sports, changing women's sports won't appease them, it'll just embolden them toward more cruelty "lol no fuck off" is the correct response Then CHANGE THE FRAMING

We don't have to pretend that people harassing and insulting women athletes for lols care about women's rights! We don't have to meet them in the middle! We can back out of the framing and say no, this isn't what equality looks like, this isn't what dignity looks like, fuck all the way off.

You need to be able to trust your own judgement before anyone else’s, ultimately—but this means being absolutely rigorous and uncompromising as to your intellectual integrity, and maintaining epistemological humility. Otherwise your judgement means nothing; it takes work to make it trustworthy.

This lie published by Canadian media outlet CBC actively helps the coal, oil and gas industries continue profiting to the tune of billions. It is many times worse than the worst climate denial. The UN report talks about actions that can be taken to stop fossil fuels and lessen the impacts we face
CBC news article headlined "Climate change past the point of no return, UN says" is stamped with a large red X and green text reading "PRO-FOSSIL-FUEL DISINFORMATION," above a silhouetted figure reaching toward a hazy, smoggy city skyline.Urgent infographic showing that immediate action can limit temperature overshoot and return warming toward 1.5°C, with scenario lines and red action dots and three parallel responses: reduce emissions, limit peak warming, and scale adaptation.

that's what inspired us

with each purchase of our

Starbucks Workers United @sbworkersunited.org · 25/08/2026
🚨BREAKING: Our union of over 12,000 baristas are officially calling for a Starbucks boycott. Read this statement penned by Starbucks workers on why a boycott from ALL customers, allies, and organizations is necessary to fight back against corporate greed:
BOYCOTT STARBUCKS is written inside a zig-zaggy speech bubble against crumbled paper. Beside it are the Starbucks Workers United logo and an image of a coffee cup being poured out.We, the 12,000 and growing members of Starbucks Workers United, call on everyone who stands with working people to boycott Starbucks until they finalize a contract with union baristas and stop union-busting.
What we’re fighting for is simple: a minimum $17/hr wage, enough hours to live on, better staffing in our stores, and basic workplace protections. Every year, our living costs rise but our wages don’t keep up – a growing pressure many American workers are feeling as corporate greed accelerates unchecked in our country. 
Starbucks is banking on customers' blind loyalty to the integrity and values this company once stood for in order to keep squeezing them for profits. At a time when working-class people across the country are struggling in a challenging economy, it is no longer possible to be both a Starbucks customer and in support of workers; choosing to spend money at Starbucks is choosing a law breaking corporation over the baristas who make your coffee everyday exactly as you ask for it.
Starbucks has violated U.S. labor law more than any other company in modern history–the NLRB and its judges have found that Starbucks committed hundreds of labor violations and there are currently more than 550 unresolved unfair labor practice charges still pending against the company. Instead of finalizing a fair and reasonable union contract, Starbucks has repeatedly demonstrated a lack of care for the workers who fuel the company’s profits by wasting millions of dollars on AI and technology that doesn’t work, launching countless gimmicky drinks designed to distract from real problems, and inventing pointless policies that do nothing but make our jobs harder. 
This ongoing, irrational behavior by Starbucks and its refusal to settle a fair union contract with workers leaves us with no other choice than to call for a boycott. We know when working people stand up together, we win. 
No Contract? No Coffee.

The most insane thing about all of these food recalls is the people acting shocked it's happening. The FDA lost nearly 4,300 staff in the last two years.

Two federal advisory committees that existed specifically to catch foodborne pathogens before they became outbreaks got disbanded. CTV NEWS:
