In this week’s episode, we discuss the Palisades Fire in Los Angeles, which has destroyed the neighborhood where Heather grew up. Why does California burn, how are fires different now than they used to be, what happens now? We discuss the Getty Villa and Palisades Village, and why we should care what happens to a wealthy neighborhood in West LA. Also: did the LA Fire Chief drinking the DEI Kool-Aid contribute to the devastation? And when are natural disasters not entirely natural? Then: Zuckerberg announces changes to fact-checking, filters, and trust and safety teams at Meta. It’s not an apology. Are the changes politically motivated, or market-driven, or philosophical, and will they stick? At the same time, Musk announces plans for algorithmic deboosting on X. Zero is a special number.

This is an inspiring speech, but such an obvious "deep fake" - it's one little video clip played again and again, with amazing ai techniques to form the mouth and issue the proclamation... what a crazy ass world we live in
@bretweinstein Just finished the James Lindsay intervention on the Woke Right concept, lol. You can see from the comments that it didn't really go anywhere, which I and many others feel is James' fault, as you say, not formulating his argument well. It's either "not actually a thing," or "the normal thing that doesn't need another name (vanilla political activism, promoting your worldview via game theory/Machiavellian means)."
He mentioned Auron McIntyre as an example. Auron is fairly educated and very mild mannered, I've been following him for a while, and he was really reluctant to even engage with this stuff months ago, but James was so determined about it, so he felt obliged to respond. Since you can't get a straight answer out of James, I think it wouldn't hurt you to interview Auron to get his inverted take, maybe you can figure out what "Woke Right" means judging by how the targets of the allegation react. Auron, again, is a very reasonable, not extremist person who I think you'd ...
