  • How "Do Your Own Research" Became a Slogan for Epistemic Collapse

    Everyone should be encouraged to do their own research. It’s the only reasonable way to make informed decisions. But we all have limits—of time, knowledge, education, access to information, and cognitive capacity. If you’ve taken a Logic course or explored the subject casually, you’ll be familiar with the appeal to authority fallacy. This fallacy warns against accepting a claim solely because it’s endorsed by a perceived expert. And in the context of formal argumentation, that’s absolutely right. However, applying this standard rigorously to everyday decision-making would require endless specialized training and unlimited time. The reality is that no one can be an expert in everything. Even world-class specialists must rely on the authority of others for most of what they believe.

  • MCC Brussels Exposes EU's Covert €649M Propaganda War Against Free Speech

    The report uncovers how the Commission has funded hundreds of unaccountable non-governmental organisations (NGOs) and universities to carry out 349 projects related to countering ‘hate speech’ and ‘disinformation’ to the tune of almost €650 million. This massive allocation of taxpayers’ money has been consciously used to fund an Orwellian disinformation complex to dictate and control the language of public debate. The report argues that this is not a benign act of responsible government but a systematic assault on free speech in Europe. The EU is engaged in a silent war to regulate language, aiming for a top-down, authoritarian, curated consensus, where expression is free only when it speaks the language of compliance established by the Commission.

  • If Publishing's Efforts to Diversify Haven't Done Anything, Why Did You Fight for Them? Why Do You Defend Them Now?

    But things change. This is important to remember if you are a left-of-center person, because the core of all left belief is precisely that things can change and change for the better. And here the status of the left in the entertainment business is important. Because while this is still capitalism and cash still rules, Hollywood is very close to a liberal monoculture, and this means that liberals have a great deal of influence over which stories get told. So, LGBTQ characters on television. Have things changed, for the better? It’s very difficult to say that they haven’t.
