Dr. Damien P. Williams: Like TSCC s03 John Connor, But Better (@wolvendamien.bsky.social):
As louv is back on his "all Greek Norse & Indo-European gods are Totally Real™ but all West African & African Diasporic entities are actually parasitic enslaving aliens" racist bullshit (yes really) now w/ added threats to weaponize cops against adherents of said WA-derived traditions (yes; really)…
Regular Eli (@captainhelion.bsky.social):
who is louv?
Dr. Damien P. Williams: Like TSCC s03 John Connor, But Better (@wolvendamien.bsky.social):
Jason Louv, former member of Irreality, which birthed and spawned Ultracultre; styles himself an "occult teacher" type, believes in, and at one point went to great lengths to pretend he DIDN'T say, but is apparently now once again all in on, some deeply racist shit.
Regular Eli (@captainhelion.bsky.social):
oh lord, i understand. thank you explaining!
Dr. Damien P. Williams: Like TSCC s03 John Connor, But Better (@wolvendamien.bsky.social):
No problem! Occult community drama is (perhaps appropriately) some of the most arcane and internecine drama there is.
Queer Witch (they, their) (@puck1008.bsky.social):
William Butler Yeats kicked Alister Crowley down a flight of stairs during a magic duel.
Regular Eli (@captainhelion.bsky.social):
im pretty sure only Crowley thought it was a magic duel at the time, which makes Yeats even more based
Dr. Damien P. Williams: Like TSCC s03 John Connor, But Better (@wolvendamien.bsky.social):
Crowley thought EVERYTHING was a magical duel. Or at least framed it that way, post hoc

Ok as many of y'all on here are journos and such does anyone know where to get an official, like, .gov attendance record of Netanyahu's speech? I'm tired of trying to see who attended it and hitting paywalls left and right

You know why everyone believed this tweet? Proper citation.
vortex egg, MLIS (@vortexegg.regretfully.online):
I mean, was it a proper citation? That's like saying that LLMs making up references to non-existent texts is proper citation just because it is syntactically formatted as such
Eric Brandom (@ebrandom.bsky.social):
Proper formatting, no need to look further

Motivated reasoning is a helluva drug
Buttadeus (@thewanderingjew.bsky.social):
I mean, this is its own thing, but I think for people in general, they can't follow every link and check every fact in what they read; a formal writing style and apparent citations are indicia of reliability.
They're just trivially easy to exploit by ChatGPT and LLMs
vortex egg, MLIS (@vortexegg.regretfully.online):
That's how most information sense-making works! There's lots of research in human behavioral approaches to information science about what is called "satisficing"
Eric Brandom (@ebrandom.bsky.social):
One of the chapters in Tocqueville that I sometimes have undergrads read is about the special problem of how to decide what to think under democracy -- easy in aristocracy, because you just follow your betters, but obviously it's impossible for everyone to formulate their own ideas about everything.
vortex egg, MLIS (@vortexegg.regretfully.online):
This is why Bernays thought we needed a society ruled by propaganda of the betters

Counterpoint: it is hard to find Appalachian non-Trumpists who are willing to go, on record, in a piece of public journ*lism, that they oppose Trump & Republicans —
Because of a decades-long intense pogrom of ideologically motivated violent terrorism by Republicans
No one wants to die
Ms. Penny Oaken (@skywitches.net):
And that's the real story.
Media can easily get MAGA sources on record praising a violent traitor. That's cishet white privilege.
Media can't get a trans or non-white woman from Appalachia on record denouncing Trump, because she'd lose her job, home, benefits, and have to leave the state.

Just open and proud fascist talking points from Vance today. Just viciously anti democratic and anti human.
Kait Richardson 🏳️⚧️🥔 (@qirenni.com):
Vance doesn't understand that only Trump gets to say this kind of freak shit in public and get away with it. Trump is the one with the cult of personality, not Vance.

Trump doesn't care about the the law and the GOP could easily get the courts to cover for him.
Ms. Penny Oaken (@skywitches.net):
Easily? Not sure. That might just blow more holes. Which … no one can rule out yet that blowing holes in the US Government & public trust in the institutions, isn't his ultimate goal
Kait Richardson 🏳️⚧️🥔 (@qirenni.com):
Blowing holes in the government is a feature for the Republicans, because it makes it easier to divert authority to the Party hierarchy as a shadow government.

it is genuinely so relieving that we seem to be actually coalescing around "what is wrong with these freaks 2024." i have been saying this for at least three years
Sara Manns (@whatsarasaid.bsky.social):
Kid, I have been saying this since before you were born. Gary Bauer? Freak. James Dobson? Also freak. The people w so many kids they should live in a shoe? Freaks.
Elected Republicans want to make it legal to look in your kid's underwear to make sure she belongs in Girl Scouts. They are weirdos!
Ms. Penny Oaken (@skywitches.net):
I do know some good Christians who have so many kids that they "lived in a shoe", but most of them were alive during WW1. One of them adopted and raised 12 kids.
It's the ones who treat their kids as Soldiers For Christ that are the creeps
Sara Manns (@whatsarasaid.bsky.social):
There's a specific family in Arkansas, I think, daddy was in the state legislature, weirdos all of them, they were on TV? They want a government so small you can prevent pregnancy by holding it between your knees. Just a lot of odd, petty people who want to get up in your business.
