Fair. I should probably make a burner to lurk for research rather than using my old personal account (this would make me less tempted to engage) 👍

Here’s the paper if interested @brianguay.bsky.social @tylermarghetis.bsky.social www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/...
PNASProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (PNAS), a peer reviewed journal of the National Academy of Sciences (NAS) - an authoritative source of high-impact, original research that broadly spans...www.pnas.orgSurveys like this always alarm people Fortunately, recent research from cognitive psychology shows that the reason people are so wildly wrong when estimating the size of minority groups is largely NOT because of prejudice — but rather how humans think about unknown proportions of any kind
Joel S.This actually explains something about how people talk about the Jewish community.

Seems bad that this existed in the first place. www.fodors.com/world/europe...
Would asking Vladimir Putin whether he’s been helping to kill your soldiers be the best way to “find out if that’s true”? Or would asking your own and allied intelligence agencies? I mean, who can say really
Aaron RuparQ: Zelenskyy says Russia is giving Iran satellite imagery of US bases in the Gulf to help them target. What can you do about that? TRUMP: We'll find out if that's true. I'll ask Putin about it. Hasn't had much impact.
I will add that a Jewish lawyer and labor leader named Aaron Sapiro — about which Ford’s paper had made wild antisemitic claims — also sued him for libel for $1 million (huge then) and was another factor in Ford’s retreat
I will just say that the last time we had a figure like Elon Musk in our politics — Henry Ford — he was defanged through a combination of (a) rejection at the ballot box, and perhaps more importantly, (b) absolutely crushing consumer boycotts
Sunder Katwala (sundersays)Elon Musk's politics are indistinguishable from Paul Golding of Britain First [except Britain First is more coded on violence, while Musk has been more openly pro-violence as inevitable, necessary, legitimate since Aug 2025] The main pro-Hitler YouTuber "Zoomer Historian" is encouraged.

Very few people know things like this. When in doubt, share.
Avel Guénin--CarlutWould assume everyone knows it by now, but just in case "First the traitors, then the invaders" is an explicit reference to The Turner Diaries, where a white supremacist revolution overruns "The System" and kills all their enemy during the evocatively named "Day of the Rope".

Americans have more confidence in higher education than in big tech companies, and the gap is growing rather than shrinking. The higher ed-doomsday pundits need to get on board with the real vibe shift in public trust that is happening right now.
Mark CopelovitchI look forward to all the reports & coverage about all of the internal problems & mistakes of all of these other institutions, in the same way that universities are constantly blamed (& blaming themselves) for “declining trust.” “Compared to what?” news.gallup.com/poll/712436/...
