Wouter @wtrax.bsky.social · 11/12/2024I agree with you :-) I was too polemical. Though still, a consciousness of ontological and/or neurological diversity (or: plurality) might put you at an advantage in being non-submissive 040
Wouter @wtrax.bsky.social · 11/12/2024and btw any agency that is non-neurodivergent cannot be anthing else than submissive or paying tribute to the powers that be 110
Wouter @wtrax.bsky.social · 11/12/2024We need doctors and psychs that join us in the battle, help the poor and damaged not those that pacify and manage social order in the name of "growth of scientific knowledge" and "representation" 120
Wouter @wtrax.bsky.social · 11/12/2024How can you be not affected by images of war #gaza and "isolation cells" #syria and not take that into account at a medicine/psych conference? Shame on the Empire! 220
Wouter @wtrax.bsky.social · 11/12/2024I do not see any consideration or concern in the program for war and violence victims globally and historically. So count me in, only when that is allowed 010
Wouter @wtrax.bsky.social · 03/12/2024Zag het op LinkedIn van Mounir Samuel, die ook deze "informatieve" link gaf: www.aljazeera.com/news/longfor...aljazeera.comAn A-Z of the children Israel killed in GazaIsraeli attacks have killed at least 17,400 children in Gaza. That is one child killed every 30 minutes. 031
Wouter @wtrax.bsky.social · 03/12/2024Het is natuurlijk sentimenteel en retorisch, waarom zou je het noemen, 'liken' of verspreiden? Maar hier in de "safe space" van bluesky doe ik het toch maar even, als emo "uitlaatklep". 050
Wouter @wtrax.bsky.social · 26/11/2024Mijn kritiek betreft het gebruik van termen als 'muilkorven', (en ook 'poten' btw) door jou. Voor een gesprek, en nauwkeurige kritiek op de pers/NOS, stellen de demonstranten (zonder aanhalingstekens) zich denk ik graag beschikbaar 111
Wouter @wtrax.bsky.social · 26/11/2024Nog even: dat "muilkorven" is hier een ongepaste metafoor. Die term gebruik je in heel andere situaties: waar de pers door decreten van de macht bepaalde zaken niet mag aankaarten. Het is juist omgekeerd wat de demonstranten willen: minder zelfcensorische bothsideist muilkorverij 121
Wouter @wtrax.bsky.social · 26/11/2024Het verontrustende is dat een groot deel van de kiezers dit soort acties nu juist wel vertrouwt, of niets kan schelen, net als veel kiezers Trump vertrouwen, Netanyahu vertrouwen, Putin vertrouwen... 010
Wouter @wtrax.bsky.social · 26/11/2024Naast demonstreren, is het lezen en schrijven en fotograferen een methode om je ertoe te verhouden, iets te doen. Zie: www.nytimes.com/card/2024/11...nytimes.comOut of GazaWe photographed badly wounded Gazans who made it out for treatment. Many can think of little but the dead they left behind. “We wanted to go with them, too,” one child told us. 110
Wouter @wtrax.bsky.social · 26/11/2024Misschien eerst eens luisteren, en met hen in gesprek gaan? Zou best wel eens kunnen zijn dat ze een punt hebben.... 130

Wouter @wtrax.bsky.social · 19/11/2024Met als motivatie de term "fatsoen". Bezigde jij ook. Daarna ook weer "solidariteit" als basisnorm? 100
Wouter @wtrax.bsky.social · 19/11/2024I'll send you the password. My talk was essentially that ever since the proverbial Cretan liar - that said "I lie" - we are all stuck with our impossible minds in paradoxes of madness 041
