“At a moment dominated by attention seekers, on platforms that reward fast-twitch proclamations and bullshit, pausing to gather evidence is painted as suspicious behavior. Reckless opportunists have rebranded baseless speculation as virtuous truth-telling.” #media

Wrote about watching information travel in the hours after the assassination attempt. How the machine isn't broken (it works perfectly) &how it makes sense that the ppl investing/supporting the machine are behind Trump, a man made in the machine's image www.theatlantic.com/technology/a...
This Is What Happens When News Breakswww.theatlantic.com The chaotic aftermath of the assassination attempt shows a toxic information system working as designed.

@corentinsellin.bsky.social Merci pour votre intervention sur France Info ce matin. J’avais oublié l’anecdote de Teddy Roosevelt. Vous avez tout à fait raison de rappeler que l’élection présidentielle américaine est loin d’être jouée.

It's impossible for it to get the oxygen it needs right now, but AOC introducing articles of impeachment against Thomas and Alito is a great story. She's the best messenger to explain why Supreme Court corruption impacts the lives of everyday Americans. www.salon.com/2024/07/12/a...
Why AOC is the best messenger on Thomas and Alito's corruptionwww.salon.com The corruption of Supreme Court justices is about more than greed. It "constitutes a clear danger to our democracy"

The Post and The Times go out of their way to give space to more people to call for Biden's head. Do they ever give space to anyone to call for Trump to drop out? No. Do they give balanced opportunity to those who back Biden? No. The agenda is clear.

SCOTUS has ruled that presidents are essentially monarchs who can commit crimes, bribery is legal, federal regulatory agencies have no authority to keep us safe, and homeless people can be punished for being homeless. Is it any wonder why public approval of this court is so low?

Il va falloir apprendre à vivre à l'allemande ! Construire une coalition, même si elle semble hétéroclite et que ses membres ont peu d'affinités. S'entendre sur un minimum commun et ensuite gouverner ensemble, travailler à réduire les tensions plutôt que les exploiter pour essayer d'en tirer profit.

I see this constantly across journalism. This idea that the "partisan divide" is just some unavoidable part of human nature and completely causation free, and not something that's actively cultivated, nurtured, and encouraged by corporate power and political bad actors using consolidated media
