#NewspaperUKBrdshtTheTelegraphEdwardMalnick "The advertising boycott of GB News shows Britain can no longer take basic democratic values for granted, the Culture Secretary has warned.
Writing for The Telegraph, Oliver Dowden said a 'vocal Twitter minority' was targeting the 'free and diverse media' and the 'right to dissent'.
The Cabinet minister pledged: 'We will not stand by and allow that to happen.'
In an escalation of the Government's so-called 'war on woke', Mr Dowden insisted the fledgling centre-Right broadcaster is right to seek to 'empower' viewers who feel that their 'concerns have been unheard'.
His intervention came after several companies withdrew advertising from GB News in its first week on air in the face of a 'stop funding hate' campaign.
Mr Dowden said: 'When he launched the channel, veteran broadcaster Andrew Neil vowed that GB News would not be 'an echo chamber for the metropolitan mindset', and that it would 'empower those who feel their concerns have been unheard'.
'Rightly so. A free media is one that has a diverse range of opinions and voices.'
Mr Dowden identified the protection of journalism and political opinions as 'the grounds of a functioning democracy', adding: 'Sadly, we can no longer take them for granted.
'Across the West, our values of tolerance and freedom of expression, for which previous generations have fought and died, increasingly risk being undermined by a small but vocal minority. For them, these are not absolute, but relative, concepts, ready to be bent to silence dissent from their world view.'
In an interview with The Telegraph, Frank Luntz, the veteran US pollster behind use of 'climate change' instead of 'global warming' said he fears 'capitalism' is becoming a 'bad word' in Britain, and said he is seeking an alternative to the word." https://www.telegraph.co.uk/politics/2021/06/19/exclusive-gb-news-boycott-shows-cant-take-democratic-values/

#EDUCAMcGillUniversityJonathanJarry "What does an antivaxxer and a far-right activist have in common? If the thought of someone who opposes vaccines brings to mind tie-dye shirts and tree hugging, your answer may be 'nothing.' But clearly, some do have a commonality: protesting the COVID-19 lockdowns. Coverage from these protests often show people holding signs slapped with antivaccine rhetoric next to pro-militia activists and white supremacists. This phenomenon can also be seen among homeschoolers according to Anne Borden, a pro-vaccine homeschooler who fights against phony autism cures. 'The first antivaxxers I ever met were left-leaning unschoolers when I was an unschooled teenager. They were very much a part of the early efforts to 'stop the Food and Drug Administration' from regulating alternative medicine. What has happened in recent years is that this demographic of homeschooling is being now recruited by the radical right on social media, and some are turning right. And this is very concerning.'" https://www.mcgill.ca/oss/article/covid-19-pseudoscience/anti-vaccine-movement-2020

Context: #ConspiracyTheoryTartarianEmpire i.e. "the pseudohistorical 'nation' of Tartaria has developed a cult following on social media. Supposedly, this country was a grand and culturally-rich empire, found in the area today recognised as Central Asia and parts of Europe. More fantastical strands of the theory add suggestions of Tartaria's advanced technology, Tartarian buildings buried under modern cities as far as North America, or its population of giants.
Believers seek 'evidence' for its existence in seemingly mismatched architecture found across Europe and Asia, as well as references to 'Tartary' or 'Tartaria' on historical maps. Historians have since explained this to be a name given to various regional ethnic groups by outsiders. The theory concludes with the view that modern European powers conspired to cover up Tartaria, which was destroyed in a mud flood, and replace the idyllic civilisation with a globalised, degenerated society that they could control. ...
Tartaria, as harmless as it may seem, has been used by Russian ethnonationalists to support an expansion of Russian land and the supposed 'supremacy' of Russians. Pseudohistory has been historically deployed by extremists to justify reclaiming certain areas and expelling others, oftentimes accompanied by suggestions of ethnic or racial 'purity'." https://gnet-research.org/2023/02/15/the-dangers-of-pseudohistorical-conspiracy-theories/ #PoliticsNationalismRussian #PoliticsNationalismEthno #BeliefMysticismPseudohistory

Autodidacticism does not purify education; it's just self-protection. And it easily slips into dilettantism, where one explores a subject only up to the point where it requires some discipline. Autodidacticism is probably as much about miserliness and fear as it is about curiosity -- it's often an attempt to amass a kind of theoretical power from knowledge while preventing oneself from ever having any occasion to test it. It's an expression of a fantasy about knowledge -- that it is not socially created but is instead laden with inherent value, like gold, and can be possessed and cherished in isolation. Autodidacts withdraw knowledge from the social circuits and contexts that make it useful and meaningful -- that facilitate the exchange and syntheses that produce knowledge -- and hoard it, using it to seal themselves off completely from the judgments of peers" (31 October #2006_). https://www.popmatters.com/the-dangers-of-autodidacticism-2495732019.html #MetaphorDissenterRebelOutsider #EpistemologyAmateurExegeteAutodidactDilettantism

But in California, the pandemic seems likely to give the state's political and corporate elites a new license to increase their dominion while continuing to keep the middle and working classes down.
Perhaps nothing spells the triumph of California's progressive oligarchy more than Governor Gavin Newsom's decision to off-load the state's recovery strategy to a task force co-chaired by hedge-fund billionaire Tom Steyer. A recently failed presidential candidate, Steyer stands as a progressive funder. He is as zealous as he is rich. Steyer sometimes even found the policies adopted by climate-obsessed former governor Jerry Brown not extreme enough for his tastes." https://www.realclearenergy.org/articles/2020/04/27/triumph_of_the_woke_oligarchs_490094.html

It's a far cry from the usual fare on RealClearPolitics. Founded in 2000, the site was an early online aggregator of political news, curating links to widely read politics stories and opinion articles in other major outlets. ...
The Daily Beast connected ConservativeCountry.net to RealClear through archives on the Wayback Machine, which show that the website had RealClear's Google Analytics tracker code and that some of the site's images were served from the WordPress account of RealClear's chief technology officer. Interviews with former editorial staff of ConservativeCountry.net confirmed that it was a stealth RealClear property. ...
Conservative Country isn't the first ultra-partisan title that's been connected to RealClear. A 2017 SEC filing listed RealClear co-founder John McIntyre as a director at FDRLST Media and put both companies at the same Chicago address. FDRLST Media is the parent company of The Federalist...
RealClear didn't respond to questions about the Facebook page but acknowledged that it created the website. 'The Conservative Country website was created as part of an effort to understand the flow of traffic from social media--particularly Facebook--to political websites,' said RealClear CTO Anand Ramanujan in an email to The Daily Beast.

"The predictably pious Steyer and his fellow commissioners will no doubt claim devotion to the interests of average citizen. But, as a new lawsuit filed by some 300 civil rights leaders asserts, the policies being backed by Steyer and his fellow commissioners have already had produced disastrous results for millions of Californians. The real collective badge of shame is not California's GHG [Green House Gas] emissions but the prevalence of poverty amid
enormous affluence.
Critically, economic growth, at least outside asset- and iPhone-price inflation, is itself considered a threat to the planet within the environmental community, which largely hails the Covid lockdowns as a 'fire drill' for future actions to promote 'de-growth.' The open hope, as a Psychology Today writer puts it, would be to tame 'the human beast' by imposing low-consumption lifestyles on hoi polloi, including in developing countries. Such policies might not affect the prospects for social media, search, or import- dependent firms like Apple, but they have already been beastly for millions of Californians."
