Hi, I just asked Substack who writes on Russia and I found this. Its almost Christmas and I plan to try NOT to spend 10 hours per day reading reports from independent and more main stream journalists over the next few weeks.
I am 67. I grew up in Clontarf and Howth , attended UCD . I need to read more of your posts,. Skimming through we may have developed a similar aversion to propaganda, PR, spin , violence and stupid bombs. I cannot stand the term artificial intelligence. I am not a super mathematician and yet I can understand that all AI is binary and nothing in terms of the complexity of Animate Intelligence.
Jeremy Lent does a great job at explaining this. His knowledge and communication skills are on a different level altogether to mine. I have enjoyed taking courses with him online although I could not keep up.
Jennifer Eberhard has written a book called Biased . She has talks on U tube. She explains how antiblack racism was constructed and also how it is impossible for human beings not to be biased. To some extent it is how our nervous systems function. However we can and must attempt to avoid bias and discrimination and to look at life from different perspectives.
I write the Peace and Joy Rebellion blog on Substack. I am now mostly retired as a medical doctor. While I was very ill between 2017 and 2020 I was unable to move much and was mostly confined to home and in a lot of pain.
I can switch off when I study and study I did as a coping mechanism and I discovered a lot of new to me information. My plan was to write some tongue in cheek posts about my Canadian sitcom suburban life and sneak in some snippets of information for anyone battling an illness and / or anyone helping someone ill.
I planned to write The Lily Diaries about my dog Lily .......... much water under the bridge later I am writing the Peace and Joy Rebellion . I now try to share clips of people I feel are worth paying attention to and who I feel do not get enough attention. I also try to watch and listen to many different news sources . I then try to post clips of people I find credible , who are trying to practice non violence which we know is very risky.
When I cannot take reality any more, I go watch Foil, Arms and Hog and share some of their clips and other clips I find authentic, calming or hopeful. I hate fake and have been fooled often.
