  • I think it turned out worse than that.

    I am ok with “question everything”, the problem is that people don’t believe in reputable sources that don’t confirm their beliefs, they look (possibly unreliable) sources that confirm them

    I think it is due to the echo chamber of social networks. People have constant confirmation of superficial “sources” and they continue to want that.

    Incidentally it’s the reason I use lemmy where the algorithm is not optimised to the point of echo chambers (also looking for “all” helps)











  • Research needs money for happening. You need to pay researchers, structures, various staff. Even more so a fancy structure as MIT

    Israel (and American Zionists) have the power to cancel a sizeable amount of research contracts with MIT. (AIPAC shows how well organised they are, originally for defence from antisemitism, now for defence from… Palestine? I guess? 🤷‍♂️ )

    Then for MIT (that is a corporation like another) comes to damage control. On one hand PR, on the other money.

    MIT took the money, Stanford (in the case of DEI) took the PR.

    I am still 100% sure neither of the two can give a damn of Palestinians, Israel or DEI. It’s just MBA stuff 🤷‍♂️

    (I have my opinions on the situation in Palestine but I don’t want this post to be about that)
