@jenvictor.bsky.socialReposted by @micahloewinger.bsky.socialThis is so excellent. It’s really worth a listen.
@micahloewinger.bsky.socialI had a great time speaking with the very wise @lilymasonphd.bsky.social about how the growing focus on political polarization is missing the greater threats. Don’t miss this one! Produced by @eloise-b.bsky.social

@talkingpointsmemo.comReposted by @micahloewinger.bsky.socialTPM's @letsgomathias.bsky.social joined @onthemedia.bsky.social to discuss his recent reporting on Chris Rufo, his “Indian Question" and the "veneer of legitimacy" that "has helped Rufo mainstream an arguably fascist agenda." More on that here:

@micahloewinger.bsky.socialThis was a great segment (about an upsetting subject). Really enjoyed finally having @letsgomathias.bsky.social and his invaluable work on the show!!
@masnick.comReposted by @micahloewinger.bsky.socialOver a year ago I met an Anthropic employee at a conference and at one point she mentioned that one of the things she was working on was whether or not it was cruel to ever turn off an AI model. I thought she was joking. She was not.

@mrdanzak.comReposted by @micahloewinger.bsky.socialA Haitian man legally immigrated to Ohio, then was given an ankle monitor bc Trump withdrew his status.
He threw himself in front of truck. The trucker, who voted for Trump, is haunted.

@micahloewinger.bsky.socialRuh roh they put my face on a mug
@micahloewinger.bsky.socialI've been drowning in pieces about all ways the Trump administration could try to steal the midterms. So I called up @rickhasen.bsky.social to get a better sense of what's actually worth worrying about vs what's just "electoral-process porn." Very clarifying convo!

@micahloewinger.bsky.socialAlmost 3 hours and somehow exciting most of the time / not stressful!
@micahloewinger.bsky.socialOppenheim** fuck me
@micahloewinger.bsky.socialLOL that's a good idea! I always struggle to think of a costume
@micahloewinger.bsky.socialAlso I went to an oddly star-studded screening and multiple people thought I was co-director Lance Oppenheimer… including Paul Rudd who waved at me!??
@micahloewinger.bsky.socialJust saw You Can See Everything... Wow. I feel like people are gonna be talking about this movie for a long time
@letsgomathias.bsky.socialReposted by @micahloewinger.bsky.socialNew: Chris Rufo & his co-host devoted a podcast to "The Indian Question," framing Desi people as a problem to be solved.
Their "solution?" Mass expulsion. For those allowed to remain: an “assimilation hazing process” w/ instances of “vulgar, defamatory racism" talkingpointsmemo.com/news/chris-r...
@micahloewinger.bsky.socialAt this point the fringiest parts of MAGA are just re-enacting the logic from Nicholas Cage's National Treasure: the only way to save the midterms from being stolen is to steal the election first
@micahloewinger.bsky.social@mollyfication.bsky.social's first @onthemedia.bsky.social TikTok is fascinating!
