Petter Törnberg@pettertornberg.com · 4w ago‘Polarization’ has become the master concept for diagnosing our current democratic crisis. But this is not polarization. It is the radicalization of the political right. By misdiagnosing it, we risk becoming complicit in the crisis. 🧵 Just out in Perspectives on Politics doi.org/10.1017/S153...

Musk says not a single person has died due to him axing USAID. Sadly, part of my job involves tracking aid spending. So here’s a thread with just some of the people who lost their lives because of USAID cuts
Trump lost the Iran war and it wasn’t close and everyone knows it and he knows that everyone knows he LOST and so now he’s trying to blame Obama because racism is his only weapon.
Is it bad to feel disillusioned in advance about your soon-to-be employer?
Max Kennerly@maxkennerly.bsky.social · 2mo agoVanderbilt & Wash U both have massive investments in SpaceX; they provided working capital for DOGE's attacks on science, academia, and humanity as a whole. Their admins believe the fascists will do them favors and make them rich, and that's the entire explanation for the chancellors' "report."

June 6 is D-day, probably ANTIFA's most heroic moment.
I finally read this comically bad hit piece on the humanities and social sciences. I would normally dismiss this sort of reactionary garbage, but I am moving to Nashville next month to start working at @vanderbilt.edu. I worry now that I am making a huge mistake.
Des Fitzgerald@desfitzgerald.bsky.social · 2mo agoVery awkward for the presidents of two major US universities, as well as a series of highly regarded scholars (Keane Anthony Appiah!) to publicly shit in their own their trousers like this: www.vanderbilt.edu/principles/s...
Things like that now-circulating Vanderbilt report are written as if analytic philosophers have been in a titanic struggle with Foucault for 50 years. It is more nearly true that they thought they got rid of pragmatism by 1975 and blame its constant return on the French. (Rorty aided this diagnosis)

folx, I’ve been working on AI "ethics" for almost a decade now & hate to tell you there’s no such thing as "ethical AI" the only "ethical principle" that works is regulating the shit out of the industry & to take back control of our autonomy, fundamental rights, freedoms & right to exist w/out AI
Me! I am one of those academics and you can be one too!
Meet the academics refusing to use generative AI
Researchers say they have their reasons for avoiding AI tools — and they’re sick of arguing about it.
