I wrote about the ways propaganda takes root, how attacks against trans people in the US and UK reflect different mythologies of protection, and why combating disinformation at the local level might be a more effective way to dismantle these frameworks than abstract online arguments with strangers.

Big Tech is offering you a Faustian bargain. It promises to remove all the friction from life, to keep you from having to think or study, and the result is your brain will become pudding, you’ll become incapable of creativity or communication. They want to make you a non-person.

Some of you have forgotten that only three years ago you were perfectly capable of writing a text, writing an email, telling a bedtime story to a child, and it should worry you that powerful companies have convinced us we can’t do things we’ve been doing since the dawn of time.

"Kast will be the furthest-right politician to lead Chile since General Augusto Pinochet, who seized power in a bloody coup in 1973 and ruled for seventeen long years, during which his government killed three thousand people and tortured tens of thousands more."
Chile has spent a decade oscillating between the center left and the center right. José Antonio Kast’s election is a departure—as well as an echo of a regional trend toward authoritarianism. newyorkermag.visitlink.me/Osvdu5
The Right Wing Rises in Latin America
The new President of Chile joins a new class of leaders trying to seize the future by rewriting the past.

I highly recommend watching this segment, not just because the CBS News execs and the White House didn’t want you to, but because these men were tortured and they deserved to have their voices heard.
