People interpret this as "AI is biased towards lefty liberal ideology".

I interpret this as "lefty liberal ideology is candid and evidence-based".

The public's response to the killing of a health insurance CEO has been an interesting point of discussion in my community forensic psychology team.

At what point do we consider something to be 'violent' and how would we define 'murder'?

Are there more acceptable motives for murder than others?

And a quick lesson in offending behaviour...

When influential public figures legitimise, model, and even encourage abusive behaviour, it weakens the 'external inhibitors' that typically discourage others from acting similarly... making harmful behaviour more likely to spread.

We are at a point where even people who do jobs that require extensive training (Sarah is a lawyer) are dismissing the expertise of others, despite knowing they have nowhere near as much training in that area.

I wonder how Sarah would react if I claimed to be right about the law more than her?

The Electoral College means the vote of a person in Wyoming is worth 3.7 times the vote of a person in California.

This doesn't seem fair to me. But I'm willing to hear arguments for why it might be, if anyone can explain?
