Post som blev tråd med tips på "starter packs" med forskare, experter osv kring konspirationsteorier, medier, fact checking, kognitionsforskning, klimat, extremism osv.
Finns många fina "starter packs" här på Bluesky om man vill fördjupa sig i olika ämnen. Här en rad forskare / experter på konspirationsteorier

Without meaningful pushback from regulators and users, Grok’s example risks setting a permissive precedent—signaling to other nudification apps and platform companies that AI-generated NCII can be treated as funny, harmless, or otherwise tolerable, writes Kaylee Williams.

RFK Jr. recently expressed concern about radiofrequency electromagnetic fields from cell phones and has removed FDA webpages that explained why cell phone radiation is not harmful. Fortunately, many other sources debunk these claims, including this article!

Can conspiracy theorists change their minds? A comprehensive review suggests they can, though the effects are often small. Interventions appear most successful when they target younger audiences and provide concrete factual alternatives.

Snygg ny genomgång från NYT av ICE-agent Ross dödsskjutning av Renee Good. De olika klippen inkl. Ross eget synkroniseras och analyseras noga. Ross blev helt enkelt inte påkörd, han ställde sig otroligt dumt. Och sedan sköt han.

Varför tycker RFK Jr. det är viktigt att tweeta att han dricker mjölk? Det är rätt uppenbart, samtidigt otroligt dumt och säger en del om vår förvirrade samtid (i USA i synnerhet).

ICE is the gestapo. Even dumb as a rock Joe Rogan can see that.
I think Dem electeds should take moral stances & then work to change public opinion.

But it's notable that another centrist Dem group has a memo that 1) contradicts Third Way's "don't say 'Abolish ICE'", 2) is based on actual research, 3) didn't get an NYT story.
