@noupside.bsky.social PinnedTwo weeks ago The Free Press let a whiner publish 2000 words ab how I got his book review cEnsoReD. It was pure nonsense from the moment it went outâbut I spent the next 14 days trying to get them to post an Editorâs Note and admit reality. They wonât. open.substack.com/pub/agentsof...

@mysky.socialReposted by @noupside.bsky.socialMySky is currently down -- we're working on it! We'll announce here when it's fixed.
@noupside.bsky.socialThatâs a very polite way of putting it :)
@noupside.bsky.socialItâs amazing how uncomfortable ppl on the left remain about frontrunning bullshit-artist propagandists who send them lists of stupid questions and clearly plan to smear them. Maybe this is lived experience earned over a decade but: you donât have to reply, and if you do, make it work for you.

"The striking thing about the current system is how much informational power is concentrated, and how seemingly small, opaque decisions can have significant downstream effects."
A must-read article that illustrates how it takes time to understand the problems of a new technology.
@noupside.bsky.socialShellenberger is a longtime well-known bad faith hack who works directly w/powerful minders to spin specific narratives. He is a PR flack, not a journalist. However, because he describes himself as a journalist with â2 million followers across platformsâ people who arenât familiar often respond.
@eliothiggins.bsky.socialReposted by @noupside.bsky.socialCredit to the US for making the point the conference was trying to make about US foreign interference in European democracies for them, and bringing more attention to the conference and its themes than they could have possibly hoped for. www.politico.com/news/2026/10...
@olafsteenfadt.bsky.socialReposted by @noupside.bsky.socialIf this quote from an EU spokesperson is authentic, it would be an outright scandal! Scince when is it a condition for any organizer to align the content of an event with the âofficial positions held by the EUâ to receive financial support? Are you kidding me?
@noupside.bsky.socialRe my last skeet
@noupside.bsky.socialFor those who donât know, the State Dept appears to have pressured Lithuanian, French, & other attendees of a conference in Vilnius this week.
Shellenberger was suddenly concurrently in all of the attendeesâ inboxes. đ¤ˇđťââď¸
@noupside.bsky.socialHugo Chavez-linked PR flack Michael Shellenberger â a random guy with a Substack who rakes in donations to fight a âcensorship complexâ that he created â would like you to know that journalists reporting on his attempts to smear people are propagandists.
@noupside.bsky.social@noupside.bsky.socialThis is a thing confirmed by research, to an extent. Itâs also why ensuring content shows up in retrieval and in training data is the new battleground.
