SCOTUS is wrong. Last year, I voted against the TikTok ban because I feared Congress getting into the business of shutting down media platforms in violation of the 1st Amendment. If implemented, this ban would impact 170 million Americans who use TikTok for news & entertainment.

Nobody has ever dropped a more fire comeback than, “The bar is so low it’s a tripping hazard in hell, and yet here you are limbo dancing with the devil.”

This is why I support DEI. The existing system operates to exclude women and minorities. Period.

New paper: Do social media algorithms shape affective polarization?
We ran a field experiment on X/Twitter (N=1,256) using LLMs to rerank content in real-time, adjusting exposure to polarizing posts. Result: Algorithmic ranking impacts feelings toward the political outgroup! 🧵⬇️

Remember: colonizers branded those defending their ancestral lands as hating White people, enslavers framed abolition as harmful to White people, lynchers cast Black empowerment as White disempowerment, segregationists labeled desegregation as anti-White. 1/2

Please don't call what RFK Jr. and Jay Bhattacharya are going to do medieval. It's not medieval. It's nothing like the Middle Ages. People in the Middle Ages were happy to try all kinds of things to not die of the plague and if you'd given them antibiotics and vaccines they would have loved it.

To those still wondering why we lost a close election and what group Dems might have reached better, I say this: All this handwringing ignores the fact that more people voted for the convicted felon, sexual assaulter and insurrectionist.
Our problems run deep. Half the voters made an INSANE choice.
