the guy @ work who likes peterson was talking about patrick brown and the accusations against him

he immediately goes into this theory where "the accusers were friends with journalists" and "why didn't they go to the police before" and "this is inside job"

and then when we were like yeah....this sort of stuff (sexual harassment) happens a lot and then he's pretty much like "false rape accusations could happen to any of you"

tell him that maybe if men have to live in constant fear of false rape accusations and learn to be careful around women, then we will maybe discover what it is like to be a woman who lives in constant fear of actual rape and has to learn to be careful around men

nigel farage is really dumb but niall ferguson once made a really good documentary on the history of Money. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Ascent_of_Money

The Ascent of Money is really worth watching if you can find it for free somewhere.

Niall Ferguson is human garbage though. After being thoroughly owned by Paul Krugman, for some reason Harvard still gives him a job.

The best part about that Vice interview is the guy calls out the whole outrage culture/right-wing counter culture all living in a bubble on university campuses and isn't really real outside of academia.

Which is true and correct. None of this poo poo matters when you have bills to pay.

Most teachers don't experience life outside of academia and don't understand how much of a bubble they live in. They're set up to be a horrible example to guide kids into the real world.

Niall Ferguson is the worst bc he's smart enough to know better but staked his career on "colonialism was good, actually" which is one step away from sharing "Irish were slaves too" Facebook posts.

that makes me feel better having picked up one of their books and putting it back down after reading the intro. it was ostensibly about some cool group of people somewhere but it was told entirely from the point of view of the rear end in a top hat colonizer "discovering" the cool group, like they only had value once they were "discovered". weirded me out enough to bail. seems like I made a good choice for once?

quote:

About 80 per cent of denier blogs cited the work of University of Victoria zoologist Susan Crockford, even though she has published almost no peer-reviewed research on polar bears and hasn't done any field studies.

Crockford, who writes the Polar Bear Science blog, has been associated with think-tank the Heartland Institute, which denies climate change, and spoke at one of its conferences as recently as last spring.

She also appears in North American and European mainstream media, including Canadian newspapers such as the Financial Post.

"Tell your readers to have a look at my blog and see for themselves," Crockford said in an email. "They will also see what my credentials actually are, as opposed to how they are portrayed by the authors of this paper."

Crockford says polar bear numbers remain strong and suggests the bears will be able to adapt to changes in sea ice.
