@Timcast Tim, please.

The Founding Fathers did the *discourse and convincing* anonymously. They built power anonymously. Only once the power base was built, they came out swinging.

The founding fathers were smart - and anonymous. #BeSmart.

@Timcast A better take 👍

@Timcast Another better take courtesy of @TheQuQu
@Timcast @TheQuQu Excellent point about "things aren't symmetric". Expanding more on that - the importance of not *yielding* to the opinion-makers:

@Timcast @TheQuQu Good point: Tim lends his face to anonymous crowd, and his work is possible *thanks to* the crowd.

 Kneon describes the entryist leftist bait-and-switch:
1. "be open for everyone"
2. "cater to this specific group"
3. "ban those who don't cater to this specific group"

 Frens, gatekeep your hobbies.

When you build something, you are responsible for not letting somebody turn it to their evil ends.

 Social democracy's politics project directly onto individual citizens, creating a moral trap:

The moral side of RW is deathly afraid of saying "no" to left's pet projects like welfare because "an individual would be directly hurt".
2/
 The other option: inter-tribal politics of a republic, where politics project onto tribes - and in turn the tribes run their affairs to their own morals.

This fixes the moral trap problem, because a change in policy doesn't hurt a person - instead, *tribes* shift internally.
3/
 To clarify, the tribes discussed is the natural tribes of people that are self-same, and are given to helping each other as brothers.

Rather than the present-day's "political tribes", construed and led through artifice.

in my defense,

i found it superbly interesting that she does a smug 21 minute video hinging on one meta-argument.

their kick-off meeting must've been heavy on back-patting and light on discussion.

the "you can't ban CRT, can you even define CRT is?" bait and switch:

the bills typically ban specific accusatory & derogatory ideas, and *that* what worries proponents of CRT the most.

here's Texas' HR 3979 analysis:

also:
the article: "What Do Conservatives Fear About Critical Race Theory?", explores feelings and pleasantries, refuses to give any details.

the details of *what* is banned are *damning* to the proponents.

#journalism in 2021 sucks! in particular the gaming journalism!

let's investigate - the six pillars of journalism:
1, writing
2, editorial
3, access to sources
4, marketing & promotion
5, financing
6, competition
1/
 what people think journalism is like:
"writing is the most important"

it's literally the least important part - and much of it is mere activism: it's cheaper to hire young, inexperienced activists & pay them with platform access than hire proper journalists
2/
 what people think journalism is like:
"wtf is editorial?"

the most impactful part of it - this is how "lies by omission" and "undue representation" and finally "manufacturing consent" happen
