I'm 100% in favor of paywalls you gotta pay for your news you gotta pay the workers but I think some stories should not be paywalled and I feel like things like food recalls or imminent nuclear strikes absolutely should be free

Bad AI supplanting human expertise is an issue that transcends any one field, but man—not many people on earth whose knowledge and dedication deserves respect like LIBRARIANS.
The long-running ideological war on libraries, education, and government workers is not separate from AI boosterism. It is the same ideological war on human knowledge and expertise. In some cases AI is being used to directly supercharge this effort:

More Than Their Work - Offrange
In calls to recognize immigrants as people, too often they’re reduced to what they produce and how they support our economy.

We need a meaningful children’s rights movement in this country. There is a long history of the government - all three branches - upholding “parental rights” to the detriment of children.
Particularly the right to a good education and to adequate healthcare, including vaccinations.
