  1. AI Surveillance Poses Profound Threat to Social Progress

    Imagine a world where AI surveillance systems don't just watch, but also notice, record, and punish even the smallest infractions - essentially becoming automated enforcers that can fine you on the spot. China is already demonstrating the power and pitfalls of this technology, using it to publicly shame and penalize…

  3. The future isn't a crossroads between utopia and dystopia. It's an ambitopia — containing both extremes at once. New concept worth sitting with.

  5. Noteworthy legislative milestones include New York's paid leave for prenatal care and New Mexico's free childcare initiative.

    The bipartisan Take It Down Act also makes strides in protecting personal imagery.

  7. The remedy is structural, not just moral. Integrate women and gender-diverse people fully. Allow failures, successes, and learning. Societies become resilient, less prone to psychopathy, and richer in perspective. 11)

  11. "Let’s get something straight: if being woke means caring about the well-being of others, challenging systems of oppression, and striving to make the world a kinder place, then we are unapologetically woke. Let the critics sneer. Let them turn “woke” into a punchline. Their disdain for compassion only underscores the necessity of staying true to its core values."

  13. "Kamala’s loss isn’t just some US anomaly…From Europe to South America, right-leaning parties are surging to power, feeding off the rage of voters who feel abandoned, destabilized, or just plain fed up. These voters want someone to blame, and politicians are more than happy to hand them targets: immigrants, minorities, trans people—anyone who represents the #socialprogress they’ve been told is “the problem” …fear wrapped in nostalgia for a past that never really existed."

  17. Good Morning #Canada
    Canada is considered a Tier 1 country according to the Global Social Progress Index, and we are ranked 15th in the world (USA is 29th). The attached link provides access to the data - select Canada in the Scorecards section to view world rankings in key areas. Despite a recent downward trend in Global Social Progress, Canada has maintained its position as an enviable place to live. Don't listen to #PeePee.

  18. What is #degrowth & can it #savetheplanet?
    "per #GDPgrowth, producing £1m worth of teargas is exactly e same as produc'g £1m worth of affordable housing.. Hickel says what matters in terms of #socialprogress is prod'n of goods & services tt r necessary for improving people’s lives & achieving ecological goals & reduction in growth in high-emitting sectors.. expansion in global north has been based on destructive exploitation of people & resources, esp'ly in global south"

  19. I remember! I remember and ponder "battles won". Social progress is mostly full of two steps forward and one slip back. I am lucky and privileged. Reading and learning about social progress is heartening.

  21. CW: Migration / refugees / Twitter

    @lunavives
    It depends how #migration occured. Were push and pull factors genuine?

    Over the past two decades in #Australia, migration has been dishonest and used to cynically boost GDP, #consumption and realEstate, while suppressing wages, at the expense of biodiversity, climate and #socialProgress. Its been well documented. Many are promised El Dorado, then abused on arrival.

    These people will tell you how they were duped.

    Also, #bailouts themselves allow and cause huge #wealthDisparaities that fuel extreme waste and yet they, the #Keynesians quietly demand that 3% #magicNumber of #growth in #consumption each year.

    The #MagicMoneyTree'ers are the reason we are in this mess. They created a wasteful #VietnamWar and told the world in 1971, "you'll take our pretty paper promises". Look at any #socialProgress graph since the 70s. Its basically all bad news.

    Holo has the more holistic take.

    Find #MichaelParenti's War On Yugoslavia lecture. Then tell us they didn't de-develop the #middleEast that was achieving greater and greater #socialProgress before the #derascination and #controlledDemolition.

    If there's one thing we've learned over the past 20 years, bigger weapons don't make you better. They do make countries that use them mentally very hollow.

  24. CW: EU pol, idiots

    @yrabbit
    This hawkish #antiRussia hysteria was started by #HillaryClinton during the #Trump election.

    She should be in #prison just for this, frankly. She persisted with it for a long time without evidence and the #MSM propagated it.

    So many opportunities for #socialProgress have been squandered by this.

    If #Biden pursued #sedition charges against Hillary and the most egregious #commentators, it'd do a lot of good. They did bring some to court. They pleaded, 'they're a joke'.
