They’ve since changed the headline to “Did Liberal Feminism Ruin the Workplace?” Gotta try to slip that mask back on just a tiny bit. We didn’t mean all women, folks! Just the loud ones. And definitely not men. Never men, no matter what they do

Breathless reporting across the industry on unconfirmed reports that Kirk's killer may have once breathed same air particles expelled by a trans person, meanwhile no interest in ironclad proof that yet another school shooter was a Nazi.

I’m asking what factors move people *towards* deradicalization, not which factors move them *away*. As I said, I understand they’re interconnected, but there is a difference. 2/2

Wuschwusul @wuschwusul.bsky.social · 11/09/2025

I’m not trying to do some gotcha here. I’m really asking: as a layperson in this field, every single deradicalization I’ve read about has relied on small scale interactions to get there - the 1:1 talks, the small dinners. 1/2

Wuschwusul @wuschwusul.bsky.social · 11/09/2025

I understand that there is an interconnectedness between radicalization and deradicalization factors, but I asked specifically about what works effectively for deradicalization. You answered with a factor for radicalization. That doesn’t actually address my question

Wuschwusul @wuschwusul.bsky.social · 11/09/2025

Does engaging (versus shutting down or boycotting) with the public performance meant to spread radicalization even allow the kind of connections that could generate a deeper understanding of the humanity of those the radical professes to hate?

000

Wuschwusul @wuschwusul.bsky.social · 11/09/2025

The egs of deradicalization I’ve read about have always happened in smaller, personal interactions. A small or 1:1 context to discuss views is very different to giving a platform to spread hate, is it not? Was it breaking bread that deradicalized Black or moments of performance (eg, public debate)?

Hypothesis: maps.app.goo.gl/bW7HtTVoSVC8... But I don’t know the structure of that lot/parking garage and the idea of tanks being at the top of a parking structure has me feeling skeptical about that as the location

No answer yet from OP, but I did some maps based sleuthing. It looks like it was taken west of the Kaiser Permanente corporate office at 1 Kaiser Plaza. At least, that’s what I can tell from the buildings in the background. There’s a parking lot and parking garage in that direction, so maybe there?

I think it’s important to notice why so many Americans believe the criminal group exists: yes the media but also two political parties that kept talking about this criminal imaginary. Two. That appeal to Liz Cheney moderates shit is damaging.

The tragic landslide in Blatten gives me the excuse to tell you the story of how we found out Ice Ages existed. It's a cool story and the most important bit is rather similar to what's happening now.

RESULT: Omaha's Republican Mayor Jean Stothert just lost to her Democratic challenger John Ewing. Stothert, who was running for a fourth term, resorted to anti-trans ads and messaging around who uses bathrooms in the final stretch of the campaign. Ewing will be Omaha's first Black mayor.

The U.S. is one of the few countries that taxes you on your income even when you live abroad. Many countries have double taxation treaties to prevent your income from being taxed twice, but who knows if the U.S. will continue to hold to those…

It is becoming normalized more and more. But it is not the normal we expect from the US constitution. It is an purposeful escalation in normalizing these violations to be arresting mayors of major cities. Saying „isn’t this kinda normal?“ is lending rhetorical support to that escalation.

Your occasional reminder that tariffs are constitutionally a Congressional power, which they have delegated to the President under the premise that there is some sort of emergency. The Republicans in Congress can reclaim that power anytime they want.

Germany has got you covered! (If you will accept a Döner in lieu of a gyro.) The city of Mannheim apparently has multiple locations where you can get pizza with Döner and/or falafel toppings

The text result of a maps search for „Döner Pizza“. The search returns (at least) 9 restaurants with „Döner Pizza“ in the name, all in Germany. Mannheim has at least 2 such restaurants.

My grandma was known for her „cast iron steak“: a hunk of beef put into a pan and cooked until it had the consistency of leather and had „taken on the flavor of the cast iron“ Not amazing, but tasted surprisingly better than it sounded? I guess I know whose recipes I’ll be returning to…

On our modern day McKinley tariffs: This week I stumbled upon this clipping from the New York Times (Oct 6, 1890) quoting The Daily News of London

Scan of newspaper clipping with the following text:

UNWISDOM OF HIGH TARIFFS.
LONDON, Oct. 5.—The Daily News says: " The European expectation of a revolt among American farmers againat the artificial dearness caused by the tariff has never been realized. It is always threatened but always postponed. The idea that the new American tariff is a blow at Canadian independence is as absurd as the talk of excited people here who hysterically declare that it is intended as an attack upon England.
Few signs yet exist that Americans are awakening to the unwisdom of high tariffs."
