This account is very instructive of the fucked up incentives on Meta platforms, and how Facebook pushes this kind of content and literally pays for it.

For the last ~8 months, it has been posting AI immigration slop

"The world's richest man continually manipulates his company's AI to lie about science and promote white supremacism" sounds like some hack sci-fi writing, but it's just our current reality

The postliberals are the ones with the money and the backing of the White House now. These statements strike me more as an older generation venting their frustrations in what’s more of less a losing battle for them right now.
🔥 A former president & a former chairman of the Intercollegiate Studies Institute (ISI) resigned from ISI’s board on Friday. One of them posted this warning that “conservative institutions are being systematically…undermined by post-liberals who promote a ‘no enemies to the right’ mindset.” 1/

I wrote about ICE and the various ways they’re carrying out this regime’s eugenicist agenda.

Their use of tear gas and pepper bullets.

Their aggressive arrest techniques.

The lack of adequate medical care or infection control in the camps.

The utter disregard for disability accommodations
ICE Enforcement May Be A Mass Disabling Event
ICE have proven again and again that they will target the most vulnerable. Their aggressive actions may even become a mass disabling event. Why aren't more people talking about it?

It's funny how hard we have to work to convince the world that uncontrolle data centre expansion is a climate risk when there's a fossil gas power station called the EXXONMOBIL POWER PLANT being built explicitly to power a data centre
Not enough people know about Homer City. The single largest fossil fuel plant that's being built *explicitly* to power a data centre.

This isn't a future projection, or some hollow marketing. This is physical stuff happening right now.

Russel Warne is an underestimated scientific racist. Not a big name that pops up a lot, but he's engaged in a lot of the "important" historical revisionism, or whatever you would call it.

He's really digging into most historical debates on IQ and providing cover where necessary

I must’ve been a postdoc at MIT or a new-ish engineering professor when I first heard the story of how Ben Barre overheard colleagues talking about how his research was so much better than his ‘sister’ Barbara’s.
We're disappointed to see Ben Barres's powerful book "The Autobiography of a Transgender Scientist" among the ~400 titles removed from the Naval Academy Library. Needless to say, we're proud to have published his book and will keep it — and his memory — alive.
The Coming Out of a Transgender Scientist
"I know that I am making the right decision because whenever I think about changing my gender role, I am flooded with feelings of relief."

Cornell agreed to pay $30m, hand over admissions data with demographic breakdowns, produce annual "campus climate" surveys to check on antisemitism and changes "since October of 2023," and—here's the dumbest part they agreed to—that the govt can open new investigations whenever it wants.

Appeasers.
