Not 'going viral' but glad to see that the podcast I was interviewed for on #AI and its impact on recent college graduates, #HigherEducation, and the #FutureOfWork (with the meaning of life thrown in at the end) hit 1,000 views: https://t.co/q64TF0RLP9
I told my students that I thought the difficulty of recent university grads getting their first professional job was the “canary in the coal mine” of the impact of #AI on #jobs — their response, “What’s a canary in a coal mine?” :-0
I can’t believe I have to explain what’s happening here, but here goes. Elite students of Ivy League schools have glamorized oppression so much that they have now reached role play status to satisfy their fantasies. Here, the students have appropriated the suffering of Gazans and are cosplaying as living through humanitarian crisis. In their American make-believe story where Ivy League infrastructure sets the scene, the students play Gazans and the school administration plays Israel.
Israel (the school) is blocking their “basic humanitarian aid” in this play, and if they don’t receive it soon, they will “die of thirst and starvation” (appropriating exact experiences of Gazans). They also destroy upper class buildings and claim them as “liberated” while the students repeat chants in zombie-like chorus, playing the roll of “freedom fighters” destroying Israeli infrastructure and claiming them freed. If I’m alive in a world where people don’t see the levels of perversion in this, I give up.
You don’t see this in lower tier schools from kids of lower socio-economic standing because they aren’t plagued with the guilt of privilege that they’re seeking to launder through Middle East role plays of feigned suffering. This is as first world dystopia as it gets.
Meanwhile, these Ivy League students who can have much more than a glass of water and as much food as their stomachs can take are commanding the attention of the media and the entire American audience, while actual Gazans who need humanitarian aid are ignored. I still have to pinch myself that people don’t see this.
Hey @Uber you canceled my ride to the AIRPORT minutes before the scheduled pickup time - having charged my credit card yesterday. I can’t get help on the ride or find a phone number for customer support - please send it to me by DM
Enjoyed speaking with a delegation from Papua New Guinea participating in the U.S. Department of State International Visitor Leadership Program. Would have like to meet them in person at the U.S. Mission to the United Nations but Zoom was the next best thing...
Just missed my train home from Grand Central but used the opportunity to see the brand new #LIRR Grand Central Madison terminal that opened earlier today. It’s HUMUNGOUS and beautiful…
