now you have the answer to your question as to how everybody else went along with fascism in Germany.

1) it's profitable 2) it removes personal accountability 3) it creates a false sense of power

CFB people were all over this, but there were a lot of NFL "knowers" convinced that he'd just run the ACC for some reason.

……. Maybe I am showing my ignorance of large swaths of sports media, but were people hyping this up? The vast majority of college football people seemed to clue onto it being a disaster from the start

a sports film that acknowledges it was originally meant to be a toothless PR-friendly "doc" and actually documents the hard pivot to losing access and encountering hostility when reality took a turn would be the first good one of these

this is actually a pretty big black mark on Hulu that they had the opportunity to chronicle an extremely newsworthy spectacle and are letting UNC back out of it because it makes them look bad

Like Thanksgiving is next month. Still planning that holiday trip to visit your MAGA voting and supporting family huh? You’re breaking bread with fascists but calling everyone else coward.

I will be honest. It’s wild to me watching a certain demographic call Dem leaders cowards for not standing up more. Not because Dems leaders aren’t cowards. No they are. But it takes a lot of nerve to call others cowards when you won’t even confront your own friends & family

I'll show my work later, but I ask Bluesky: Is James Franklin losing at UCLA today the worst loss a coach has taken, all factors considered, since Rich Rodriguez in the 2007 Backyard Brawl?

Congratulations, James Franklin. That was now only the SECOND dumbest thing I saw today.

hailey @hailey.at · 4d

an unfortunate irony about this post - and even if you are the staunchest anti-ai critic out there, i think you’d agree - is that some of the most bigoted things are being said to respond to this. copy/pasting phrasing and terminology used by bigots but replacing “dna” with “bits” doesn’t make it ok

i’m completely serious when i say that much of the dismissive ai discourse on here fires the bigotry neuron

Feels like the only reasonable outcome here is for Florida and Penn State to swap coaches

I know @hollyanderson.bsky.social rightly asks “fire him FOR WHOM?” about Franklin, but I feel like “guy who wouldn’t lose to the worst UCLA team ever and then blame it on travel” is a reasonable get for Penn State

If you’re white, your accomplishments are your own and you can resent and criticize the country all you like, but if you’re black and successful you should be grateful to white people for allowing you in their presence. bsky.app/profile/jess...

Weaponized gratitude is a key tool in the abuser's toolkit. The goal is to convince the victim that they owe the abuser so much, they should feel guilty for wanting to complain.
