@thejohnrobson It's Carney's "Values"

@MichaelARothman Stewart seems to think his own content is unbiased

𝗝𝗢𝗡 𝗦𝗧𝗘𝗪𝗔𝗥𝗧 𝗝𝗨𝗦𝗧 𝗖𝗢𝗡𝗙𝗘𝗦𝗦𝗘𝗗: 𝗪𝗛𝗘𝗡 𝗣𝗘𝗢𝗣𝗟𝗘 𝗦𝗘𝗘 𝗨𝗡𝗙𝗜𝗟𝗧𝗘𝗥𝗘𝗗 𝗜𝗡𝗙𝗢𝗥𝗠𝗔𝗧𝗜𝗢𝗡, 𝗧𝗛𝗘𝗬 𝗠𝗢𝗩𝗘 𝗥𝗜𝗚𝗛𝗧. 𝗔𝗡𝗗 𝗧𝗛𝗔𝗧 𝗧𝗘𝗥𝗥𝗜𝗙𝗜𝗘𝗦 𝗧𝗛𝗘𝗠. One of the panelists on Jon Stewart's podcast cited a real study — published in Nature — showing that people who used X's algorithmic feed moved further to the right than a control group using a chronological feed. He presented this as evidence that Musk is "warping democracy." Let's take the study at face value for a moment. Let's assume it's accurate. What Stewart is telling you is that when people are exposed to a wider range of information and viewpoints than legacy media curated for them, they move to the right. Not because they were tricked. Not because they were radicalized. But because the information itself — presented without the filter of editors at the New York Times and producers at MSNBC deciding what you're allowed to see — leads people to draw different conclusions than the ones the left wants them to draw. 𝗧𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗶𝘀 𝗻𝗼𝘁 𝗮𝗻 𝗮𝗹𝗴𝗼𝗿𝗶𝘁𝗵𝗺 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝗯𝗹𝗲𝗺. 𝗧𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗶𝘀 𝗮 𝗻𝗮𝗿𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗶𝘃𝗲 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝗯𝗹𝗲𝗺. For decades, the left controlled the information environment — the networks, the newspapers, the platforms, the search results, the fact-checkers who decided what was true. People saw what they were allowed to see and drew the conclusions they were steered toward. That wasn't called brainwashing. That was called journalism. The moment a platform emerged that allowed crime statistics, border data, economic numbers, international news, and firsthand accounts to circulate without a progressive gatekeeper deciding what was fit to print — people started changing their minds. And the people who built and benefited from the old system called it manipulation. Jon Stewart isn't concerned that people are being deceived. He's concerned that people are no longer being managed. There is also a word for the system he's defending — one where trusted institutions decide what information reaches the public and frame it in ways designed to produce specific political conclusions. That word is not journalism. And the fact that losing control of that system feels to him like an attack on democracy tells you everything about whose democracy he thought it was.

@peterboghossian The perennial distraction

Prediction: No alien bodies No alien craft No alien tech

@CoryBMorgan I think the Liberals are against ALL primary sector industries - oil and gas, mining, farming, fisheries... These blue collar industries embarass them. They want everyong to live in a city and work in an office

More like America's brain damaged cousin. It takes a special kind of stupidity to hinder the development of a resource for over a decade when the world desperately wants it. Then to be shocked when your standard of living and wealth plummet.

@thematthewcooke There are no human rights that require other people to do things

By failing to treat shelter (along with food and water) as a human right and obligation, we create a permanent caste system, where humanity is born into hereditary debt to a select few who claim to own the Earth. This is called feudalism. It’s medieval and unsustainable.

@triggerpod @tedcruz @mehdirhasan Well done, boys

In the modern media space, people only talk and listen to people they agree with. No show in the world would interview both @tedcruz and @mehdirhasan on the same day, in long form, and challenge them respectfully while also letting them set their case out. That's what TRIGGERnometry is for. Both episodes coming soon.

@adamcarolla The problem with capitalism is people are greedy. Communism works because people love to share

Communism can’t work because of human nature

@JonHaidt It was illegal for a reason

In addition to phone-free schools, there seems to be one more area where left and right can agree: Pervasive frictionless heavily advertised gambling is a scourge. States that legalized it are harming their own citizens and especially their young adults.

@triggerpod @michaelmalice Yes, and what portion of the public has sufficiently low intelligence to rely on us-them? I think around 3/4

“People don’t run a true–false filter; they run an us–them filter.” In this clip, @michaelmalice argues that while people share basic emotions, they process information very differently. These cognitive differences make meaningful communication difficult and fuel societal problems, especially in politics and on social media, where people filter information not by truth but by “us vs. them” group identity.

@nickirich14 Bullshit. People with jobs get roommates. These people are addicts

I need people to understand that about 60% of homeless people are employed but just don’t make enough to afford housing and that’s the real issue

@joebarnard Black dress/blue dress is bad, but many arguments are required to discover the truth

I used to have a lot more fun on this website. Hot take though; I don't think it's only because of the changes Elon has made. I've just been growing more grossed out by the way social media(not just X) pushes people to fight over shit that doesn't matter

@katewillett I'm sure they would appreciate any of the jet fuel (kerosene) you can spare to use in oil lamps

We are going to Cuba

@GurvSC Carney ran on controlling the out-of-control $40B deficit

The guy with the PHD gave us the worst economy in the G7, Can’t even make this stuff up.

@bruce_barrett Some kind of anti-compeititiveness-as-virtue problem that is affecting commonwealth countries: Canada, Australia, New Zealand

Canada is like a lottery winner that was set for life but gave the money away and ended up broke.

@CarlSparre @namexnotblank @sydney_ev A typical 200 amp 240V electrical service can supply 48KW. A modern tractor can easily be 200-400KW. Sufficient power to charge batteries quickly becomes a challenge

@namexnotblank @GoodAtBingo @sydney_ev Good point. Probably another robot machine shuttling batteries from substation to fields.

Yes. Even serious farm equipment can be electrified. Of only we had more foresight and encouraged the electrification of heavy machinery.

@Kleva_Clogs @sydney_ev Briefly

@GoodAtBingo @sydney_ev Do they not stop to fill up with diesel?

@CarlSparre @sydney_ev Ya but then you must buy 2 giant batteries, and maybe upgrade your electrical service to charge it

@GoodAtBingo @sydney_ev Worst case, battery swap. China already doing this to electrify trucking. They can use exact same mechanism.

@PrepperCanadian Figures

Canada is the only place inhabited by humans not currently experiencing above averages temps

@politvidchannel What is she waiting for?

BREAKING: Epstein victim says she has tapes of Donald Trump doing things that will force him to resign from the presidency.
