"You are entirely right. I have repeatedly failed to accurately answer your questions and instead offered irrelevant case law, hallucinated docket numbers, and forced arguments about execution that completely missed the scope of what you were asking." Well, well, well.

AI didn’t “go rogue.” People connected a computer system they know can mess with another computer system in unpredictable ways to less advanced computer system and it messed with that computer system in unpredicted ways. As @tressiemcphd.bsky.social argues, don’t lose sight that *people* did that.

One thing I've learnt from decades practising as a barrister: there's no special body language that gives away a liar. Some witnesses are convincing when they lie, and others are shifty when they're telling the truth. The only way to know is to compare what they say with other objective evidence.

But sure, let's keep focusing on men being disadvantaged.

one of the most important things you need to do when developing a new product, especially in tech, is sit down and think about how it can be misused by bad actors and nowadays it sure seems like the bad actors are less “people to be guarded against” and more “the target customer base”

“Heatwave-induced suffering leads to a violation of rights such as the right to life, the right to health, and the right to livelihood. Government failure to take adequate climate adaptation measures is therefore something that should be challenged in court.”

“Radicalization” offers a better framework. It is directional and asymmetric. It asks how identities harden. How leaders construct existential threats. How norm-breaking spreads. How groups escalate. How unthinkable ideas enter the mainstream. It describes the process we are actually seeing.

Finally: ⬅️➡️ mutual repulsion. Polarization implies that the two sides push each other apart. But again, the evidence often shows the opposite. The rise of the radical right has produced a gravitational pull. Mainstream parties are pulled toward it, adopting its issues, frames and positions.

One side trying to dismantle democratic institutions, and the other trying to stop them, are not symmetrical political movements. Calling this "asymmetric polarization" does not solve the problem. A concept built around two poles has to be stretched until it means its opposite.
