Corporations and oligarchs with massive fortunes can hire as many junktanks (so-called thinktanks), troll farms, marketing gurus, psychologists and micro-targeters as they need to devise justifications and to demonise, demoralise, abuse and threaten people trying to sustain a habitable planet.

With our food systems on the verge of collapse, it’s the plutocrats v life on Earth

Climate breakdown and crop losses threaten our survival, but the ultra-rich find ever more creative ways to maintain the status quo, says Guardian columnist George Monbiot

Facebook, ig, and twitter don’t want to be social media. They want to be media. They don’t want people to experience a natural feed of people they follow. Instead they serve a curated dish. They control what we see. They are clearly pulling back from the social aspect and becoming merely big media. It’s important to be very aware of this. Everyone’s addicted to scrolling and do they’ve got this massive power over what people see.

One of the many reasons that I am atheist is that religion is often used as an arm of government in war. In Ukraine war, the Russian Orthodox Church is both a propaganda and mercenary arm of the government.

@atheism

Religion is about and .

Morality is a social construct. Ideally if the church (read cult) rules are followed the members will live in a group supported harmony. That has plenty of problems but the larger bad stuff happens when churches war for control of humanity.

But atheist states can be guilty in two similar ways: 1) corruption, 2) expansionism. Atheist states don’t have predatory clergy, they still have predators.

"Wrestling with Social and Behavioral Genomics"

Social and behavioral genomics research uses huge sets of genetic data in attempts to shed light on phenotypes from smoking and eating behaviors, to psychiatric disorders, to sexuality and educational attainment. How should we think about the risks and benefits of such research?

Thank you for getting the proposal 😀
Indeed my target is to inspire colleagues into using a set of non-tech protocols for changing their work. From their they focus on getting things done. They cannot refrain.
Would you suggest other wording for my pouf prez attached?

Remember: Periodic violence against a community (even against individuals from a community) has the effect of containing, constraining, repressing that community even thousands of miles away. Even when “rare”, the effect is to instill fear and force constant self-policing to ensure one’s own safety. Periodic violence is an instrument of (3 of 3)
