@680ham@swale_alistair@elonmusk It’s not really that secret when they have websites and publications listing some members, especially those holding positions in the local lodge.
@henrybearcroft Yea that thread pissed me off as well and got me wondering how i started following that account, and whether i should going forward. Disingenuous stuff.
@a_centrism A lot of never. what is a public school going to teach about this that is not ideological and poss going to mess people up? how is any of this critical knowledge for all hs graduates to succeed in life over other skills they graduate without? Leave it to adult classes in psych.
@shaunking@elonmusk@Twitter suppresses black voices & you know that. The black people it amplifies are those agreeing with a white male agenda—it just happens to be white males on the left who reward black faces that agree to “front” their goals. Free speech is essential to black freedom.
In hypothetical scenarios, psychiatrists were less likely to choose antidepressants for their own depression (39%) than prescribing them to patients (79%) or when telling patients what they'd do in the patient's situation (81%). What a fantastic study design!
@AlaskyAlex @seerutkchawla@gmiller Hmm...Who did those powerful "wizards" the hobbits were "dependent" on eventually turn to when their system fell apart due to epidemic corruption?
@consent_factory I'm not sure speaking up is going to cut any mustard, in an age of algorithmic censorship. Need to divest financially and procedurally; preserve value before the crash, to be able to be heard among the intensified bleatings to come.
@lmrhody @lwaltzer@ammienoot@RoxanneShirazi@CUNY Gross. The fact that so few people seem aware and concerned about this is an alarming pointer to how thoroughly "prediction markets"/surveillance capitalism have pulled the wool over mass eyes as they sell data with the intent to increasingly control people.
@DrEdwinBurns@lwaltzer @lmrhody @RoxanneShirazi@CUNY Not if they're competent. A committed, intelligent, experienced professor knows what student writing generally looks like compared to published sources. Thus would only have to search a small fraction when their 'radar' goes off. Its not worth ethical compromise and expense.
@nathansnewman@SChenHayes@lwaltzer @lmrhody @RoxanneShirazi@CUNY An experienced teacher doesn't need to "google every paper"- you know what normal student writing looks like and what your students are capable of to know when you should check. It's laziness and incompetence you are promoting, in service of lining corp pockets & control.
@anna_zeemont I remembered seeing this tweet but it was really hard to find. I'm not at CUNY but I would like to keep up with this effort if you can loop me in.
I remember seeing a tweet around early January about a new lawsuit or petition against Turnitin from a school in the US, but I can't find any information about it in my history. Anyone else know anything about this? Feel free to DM too.
@consent_factory Satire has been deemed haram. Emblematic of prudery of thought, and mental bankruptcy that can think of no wittier response than deletion.
@PartialProbosc@JonHaidt@jon_rauch I am inclined to agree - A bit baffled as to why so many here seem sanguine about the pre-online way - there was more overt consensus, but it was often consensus around fallacy and even deception, often leading to devastating results. If that's the best the author has...
