It'll take 15 minutes.
A lesson I've just learned for the thousandth time and will forget by tomorrow.

children who are constantly criticized
grow into teens who learn to hate themselves for failing to live up to others’ expectations
who grow into adults that reflexively over-apologize because they’ve been conditioned to believe they’re always disappointing everyone

How many people lost their jobs and careers for opposing this horror? But now it's ok to say because it's so undeniable but only after brow beating the left? It was undeniable in the first few weeks after 10/7. So many simply refused to see it.

Most of the internet used to be like this. This is actually the default, it took companies enclosing the internet and adding weird, soul-killing incentives to make people behave the way they do now. In a way, there is truly nothing special about Wikipedia except that it survived longer.
“Wikipedia is this economic anomaly. In many ways, it’s sort of magical that people will just volunteer without explicit economic incentives to create artifacts that are meant to share knowledge with everyone in the world”

To be clear, dismissing misgendering us female reporters for WIRED by doubling-down on misgendering a woman whose gender was weaponized against her to diminish and deny her accomplishments is not good.

FWIW, computerboys is a nongendered pejorative. Marie Curie was a computerboy.
