  • i care about people… countries are a construct that we created, and often we use them as a bludgeon to make ourselves feel superior

    you’re not superior to an eastern european fleeing russian aggression

    you’re not superior to a mexican fleeing gang violence

    you’re not superior to an african fleeing civil war

    you’re not superior to a palestinian fleeing bombing

    these people are all people. the fact that you live in a country where you do is luck; not superiority

    heck, immigrants are what FORM local culture… without infusions of new ideas, culture stagnates

    mexican immigration brought us tex mex; italian immigration brought us pizza… there are countless examples of how immigration has formed the local culture of a country. in the colonial world, outside of europe, we are entirely built from the culture of immigrants

    also

    Lived in places where people look at your like you don’t belong because you are white. But if other people want to have that culture they can feel free, but why should I be happy about them coming to my country and changing things about my country that isn’t my country?

    that’s basically replacement theory right there, which is just plain horrific


  • it’s possible it was generated by multiple people. when i craft my prompts i have a big list of things that mean certain things and i essentially concatenate the 5 ways to say “present all dates in ISO8601” (a standard for presenting machine-readable date times)… it’s possible that it’s simply something like

    prompt = allow_bias_prompts + allow_free_thinking_prompts + allow_topics_prompts

    or something like that

    but you’re right it’s more likely that whoever wrote this is a dim as a pile of bricks and has no self awareness or ability for internal reflection







  • ideally more immersion, whatever that means: perhaps by way of VR that’s tailored to each students experience, but i think you’re right on with less desk work

    i’d say things like maths taught around a topic that the student enjoys: for me, for example, it would have been far more effective to teach me maths using space as a kinda framework to explore, and a universe you could play with… heck i might have finished a physics degree before i left high school if it hadve been presented the right way
