I'm a believer in smart policy, but all the finger-pointing in the LA firestorm about hydrant flows and LAFD budgets seems like arguing about the adequacy of Hiroshima's 1945 building code standards. It's a way to evade the big questions.

4) Learn to live with social complexity. If you write off the possibility of persuading your fellow citizens, fascists win by default. In practice fascist ideologues are few, but people think they can ride that tiger for their own purpose. Read Sarah Ahmed’s organization of hate. Weaponize love.

@shanetobin.shakedown.social.ap.brid.gy I was just looking to see if the Guggenheim was on here (digging the new visual identity!) and your profile came up. Funny enough, I played a couple of local gigs through So Far last year. Anyway, looks like I’m your first follower now. Cheers!

My partner texted me this news story this morning and it made my day.
I wonder if there’ll be an educational angle to it. 🤔
I also read somewhere that most teens are regularly exposed to #misinformation and conspiracy theories via social media but aren’t receiving any training in media literacy…
