Karia posted:Anyone who hasn't see it, please read that tweet thread unspoiled, it goes places. Non-violent protesters must simultaneously be provoke a response to be effective, yet must be self-disciplined enough to not provoke a response. And allow the oppressor to oppress them without any resistance to let the oppresser 'feel a false sense of security.' And they must...discipline society with Bitcoin? Shyamalan would get a boner from that level of twist.

Red Bones posted:There's a good book by an economist called Richard Thaler called 'Misbehaving' - he is one of the economists that eventually managed to shift the field away from this point of view. It has been a few years since I read it so I might be getting some of the details slightly wrong, but economics shifted at some point (I think post-WWII, but it might have been earlier?) towards a model that assumed that a human being would always assess a situation and then choose the option with the greatest long-term gain 100% of the time. And this idea was incredibly pervasive within the field to the point of being the widely accepted truth, and was the basis for a lot of economic models, forecasting, etc etc. It's where the modern-day conception of the 'invisible hand of the market' as meaning 'the market will always find the greatest profit' comes from. So I suppose from the 20th century economist perspective they would have viewed mobs as being groups that were rationally making the best choice possible given their situation. Yeah, Thaler and Rachlin and other folks in that area have pretty soundly demonstrated that humans predictably make impulsive decisions, and simple manipulations of contextual variables can reliably change the choice made. For example, if it is Monday the 1st, and you offer someone a choice between $10 now or $20 later, they will choose differently depending on if you say the $20 is "in 7 days," "in 1 week" or "on the 8th." A lot of folks interpreted that as "People are stupid, predictable, and easily manipulated" and have sent a TON of hate mail to these researchers.

Tobermory posted:Yeah, there was a famous study in the 1970s that basically looked at whether toddlers would rather eat one marshmallow now, or two marshmallows 15 minutes later. The experimenters claimed that this was testing self-control, and went on to show that this preference correlated strongly with higher income and test scores later in life. Economists have taken this study seriously for over fifty years. Its not nearly as simple as that - its a combination of probability and delay discounting. The kids who don't wait tend to engage in more risky behavior, more drug use, more crime, lower grades, have higher rates of divorce, higher BMI, lower savings, etc. even after you control for differences in incomes. Its a self-perpetuating cycle in which an impoverished environment teaches you to ask impulsively (because the second marshmallow may never come), but then that same impulsivity interferes with your chances of getting OUT of an impoverished environment. There's been literally decades of research in this area (including the stuff I've published) - we don't depend on a single Mischel study anymore, especially when those flaws are addressed in replication studies.

ookiimarukochan posted:I just want to point out she's put "Epstein didn't kill himself" on the same "we have questions" level as "Princess Diana" (was assassinated by the Royal Family) which is a questionable choice to say teh least. On a similar note, I think an important distinction in the blue section is "Things that really happened" is not the same as "How conspiracy theorists think a thing happened." MKUltra was a real program. It did not, however, discover secret telepathy and mind control like conspiracy theorists claim.

Regarde Aduck posted:It's important to note that they tried all kinds of poo poo to make/discover psychic people and astral viewing. So the actual distinction is between thinking they got it working or didn't. So you're saying it was a real program they had, but they didn't discover secret telepathy and mind control.

I'm guessing the wheel size and location (and all the other factors in a natural environment) was an issue.
