"Short People" is a song by #RandyNewman from his 1977 album, #LittleCriminals. With lyrics demeaning to short people, the song was intended by Newman to be a satire about #prejudice more broadly. As with many of his songs such as "Rednecks", Newman wrote the song from the point of view of a #biasedNarrator.

“ #Freethinkers are those who are willing to use their #minds without #prejudice and without fearing to understand things that clash with their own #customs, #privileges, or #beliefs. This state of mind is not common, but it is essential for right #thinking.” - #LeoTolstoy

The truth seems to be that propaganda on its own cannot force its way into unwilling minds; neither can it inculcate something wholly new; nor can it keep people persuaded once they have ceased to believe. It penetrates only into minds already open, and rather than instill opinion it articulates and justifies opinions already present in the minds of its recipients. The gifted propagandist brings to a boil ideas and passions already simmering in the minds of his hearers. he echoes their innermost feelings. Where opinion is not coerced, people can be made to believe only in what they already “know.”
Eric Hoffer (1902-1983) American writer, philosopher, longshoreman
True Believer: Thoughts on the Nature of Mass Movements, Part 3, ch. 14, § 83 (3.14.83) (1951)More about this quote: wist.info/hoffer-eric/11263/

Common sense is the collection of prejudices acquired by age eighteen.
-- Albert Einstein -
Part of my thread that's coming later this week will also discuss how being treated like shit/being disbelieved here (after getting swatted by a pathological liar who owns a huge Canadian instance, with a lot of ignorant supporters who seem unaware or don't care that their guy swatted me) - severely triggered my PTSD on being disbelieved when I tried reporting being SAed as a teen. I was bullied & ostracized for trying to report SA. People believed the rapist & not me. It brought up the same angry, disappointed & people are fucked feelings.
I had almost left Mastodon completely, due to that.The Epstein Files triggered both of those hella horrible life memories, again. I'd never been swatted before Chad Ohman chose to send that racial violence to my home, shortly after my Dad died. That night was full of unnecessary police traumas too. I'm sick of people pretending to care & I find out they don't, when shit hits the fan.
I don't need fake support. I don't need cowardly folks. That shit ends up hurting me in the long run. I don't need any fucking devil's advocates either. Go hang out with Satan.

Later this week.
I'll talk about my feelings about how most folks are socially conditioned to quickly judge loud, angry POC women but not conditioned to understand why a lot of us are done with being mistreated/disbelieved/treated lesser than because we don't stay calm/polite when we experience ongoing abuses & rarely are supported during our worst experiences. Most folks (fellow POC are included) are socially conditioned to refrain from judging the polite in public white person, who abuses their white privilege & stays calm, after being shady & abusive.All of this shitass, social programming is fucking ass backwards. It sets up a perpetual system of putting polite talking, calm, perpetrators, over not polite talking, not calm, victims.

"Bezdomovci dostali sto tisíc a volnou ruku, výsledek překvapil" -- "Lidé bez domova podle dat neutrácejí primárně za alkohol a drogy, většina z nich pracuje nebo pracovat chce a bezdomovectví si nevolí dobrovolně"
Jo teď jsem zjistil - oni dle mého názoru v zásadě vybrali bezdomovce, kterým se vede nejlépe, dali jim prachy a pak zjistili, že se jim vede relativně dobře (i když průměrný plat 15 000 Kč - nevím kdo z toho dokáže v českém režimu vyžít). Takže podle mě studie na nereprezentativním vzorku předem vybraném tak, aby to vyšlo.

A quotation from Terry Pratchett
Not for the first time she reflected that there were many drawbacks to being a swordswoman, not least of which was that men didn’t take you seriously until you’d actually killed them, by which time it didn’t really matter anyway.
Terry Pratchett (1948-2015) English author
Discworld No. 2, The Light Fantastic (1986)More about this quote: wist.info/pratchett-terry/8163…

If you have any Meta app on your phone, such as Facebook, it is time for a rethink.
Meta is secretly using its AI to scan phone camera rolls of users.
Consider this:
Pre-WWII Nazis would have done similar if the technologies had existed back then, first to profile people under pretences, then to target people for camps etc. It would start with minorities and progress fast to anyone who 'seemed different', 'walked different', owned something they wanted, or disagreed in any way.Furthermore, why the hell do operating systems leave backdoors open for any toxic, divisive app?
It is not the time in world politics to be coasting on habit and hopes about any app known to have dined with far right.

May is book's month in Uruguay, May 26th being National Book's Day. I promised to release my books freely in a #FediverseEdition proposal.
I expected to do that in their original language (Spanish).
Translation is a full time professional job which I am not prepared to do. However, some LLM helped me improve a bit my amateur translation attempt of my opera prima The Hungarian Soprano.The main story is a nonlinear chronology which mirrors the dissonant harmonies of La Traviata.
Its structure forces the reader to become the investigator, piecing together a conspiracy the text refuses to spell out.It is a historical fiction work covering espionage, arms traffic, government cover-ups spanning South America and Europe during the Yugoslavian wars.
The prose’s clinical tone (dates, decrees, serial numbers) sharpens the horror, making The hungarian soprano's death feel not like fiction, but like history’s darkest aria.
Six more parts await inside covering #fanaticism, #prejudice, #mystery, #psychedelia, #medicaldrama, #travel, #alcoholism, #friendship, #africa, #trans, #MedecinsSansFrontieres, #southamerica, #Brazil, and more.
Hope you enjoy it. If you feel like #commenting, #sharing or #rating it, thanks in advance.

#BigBrother #housemate #Olivia #voices #concern that #Hallie’s #eviction was due to #transphobia.
The #Scottish #dancer referenced that “#prejudice” in the #public #vote could have led to the 18-year-old’s #exit from the #house.
Having been #nominated by her #housemates for #eviction, it was the #publicvote which sent her home.
