"For all his perspicacity, George Orwell would have been stymied by this situation; there is nothing “Orwellian” about it. The President does not have the press under his thumb. The New York Times and The Washington Post are not Pravda; the Associated Press is not Tass. And there is no Newspeak here. Lies have not been defined as truth nor truth as lies. All that has happened is that the public has adjusted to incoherence and been amused into indifference. Which is why Aldous Huxley would not in the least be surprised by the story. Indeed, he prophesied its coming. He believed that it is far more likely that the Western democracies will dance and dream themselves into oblivion than march into it, single file and manacled. Huxley grasped, as Orwell did not, that it is not necessary to conceal anything from a public insensible to contradiction and narcoticized by technological diversions. Although Huxley did not specify that television would be our main line to the drug, he would have no difficulty accepting Robert MacNeil’s observation that “Television is the soma of Aldous Huxley’s Brave New World.” Big Brother turns out to be Howdy Doody." ― Neil Postman, Amusing Ourselves to Death: Public Discourse in the Age of Show Business, year 1985, page 111

Part of the purpose of science is to account for the fact that humans don't start with a clean slate and eliminate the vagaries of human bias through a systematic process that is designed to be as objective as possible.

It has nothing to do with any one group or demographic. Science is a systemization of a posteriori knowledge. Mathematics is a systemization of a priori knowledge. The fact that they happened to come from white men for the most part has no bearing on their validity as systems of epistemology. You're basically just committing the genetic fallacy: This system came from a privileged group, therefore it's not objective.

Perhaps I misunderstood your message. There is a fringe movement to invalidate science on the basis that it's a "white man's field" and therefore not objective, and to explore alternative epistemologies from other groups. Of course they never specify what those other epistemologies are. Are they talking about shamanism? Reiki? Astrology? It's not at all clear. Point is, if a white man says 2+2=4, he's still right, because it's an objective fact.

I feel like I probably had difficulty following this discussion and started projecting meanings from previous discussions onto it. When you talked about the "majority group", it made me think of those fringe academics who argue that science can't be trusted because it comes from white men, and we need to create a feminist or PoC version of science.

I'm on the fence about this. I do think a lot of social science research of the past was influenced by racism and sexism. However, some people are just denying objective reality, like trying to argue that male and female brains are exactly the same when you can literally see differences between them in a CAT scan or EEG.

a big part of my treatment of #TheChaliceAndTheBlade is arguing with social science generally. Their theory was that some, “social model,” came into being around five thousand years ago, my adjustment to that is biology, animals don’t follow “social models,” they operate form their evolution, their brains, and their genes.

My argument is age 17, age 18, age 19, age 20, age 21
The ENTIRE world, regardless of #Racial or #Gender or #Written language or #Spoken language or #Religion conflicts copies certain things in a real hurry
1. Tall buildings. We may all have different religions, but we all bow our knees to a fancy #Skyscraper building Tokyo , Beijing, Moscow, Chicago, Toronto, etc. and we are NOT self-aware of this. And we go to tall buildings in Egypt and #CentralAmerica and we can't put two and two together. TALL BUILDINGS are an automatic subconscious respect in our brains
2. Ok, my point, back to: My argument is age 17, age 18, age 19, age 20, age 21
We copy, steal, import any military training idea we can find that works. We can turn age 19 women into killers and murders. Anywhere in the world. Military #teaching and #Training is efficient and works. Obey orders, training routines, sleep together, meals together, uniform clothing, #MilitaryJargon language
We are GREAT as humans into teaching murder and killing and we prove it works all over regardless of nationality, gender, geography. #AntiCompassion - we know how to REMOVE compassion so that a jet pilot can drop a bomb on strangers they never met.
This is not an #Autism #Allistic difference. Compassion is learned, and we are really good at removing the learning.

“Joyce is, in the Wake, making his own Altamira cave drawings of the entire history of the human mind, in terms of its basic gestures and postures during all the phases of human culture and technology. As his title indicates, he saw that the wake of human progress can disappear again into the night of sacral or auditory man. The Finn cycle of tribal institutions can return in the electric age, but if again, then let’s make it a wake or awake or both. Joyce could see no advantage in our remaining locked up in each cultural cycle as in a trance or dream. He discovered the means of living simultaneously in all cultural modes while quite conscious.”

"Context Blindness: Digital Technology and the Next Stage of Human Evolution (Understanding Media Ecology, 10)"
January 25, 2022
by Eva Berger
"Are people with #autism giving us a glimpse into our future human condition? Could we be driving our own evolution with our technology and, in fact, be witnessing the beginning of the next stage of human evolution? The thesis at the center of this book is that since we have delegated the ability to read context to contextual technologies such as social media, location, and sensors, we have become context blind. Since context blindness―or caetextia in Latin―is one of the most dominant symptoms of autistic behavior at the highest levels of the spectrum, people with autism may indeed be giving us a peek into our human condition soon. We could be witnessing the beginning of the next stage of human evolution―Homo caetextus. With increasingly frequent floods and fires and unbearably hot summers, the human footprint on our planet should be evident to all, but it is not because we are context blind. We can now see and feel global warming. We are witnessing evolution in real-time and birthing our successor species. Our great-grandchildren may be a species very distinct from us. This book is a must for all communication and media studies courses dealing with digital technology, media, culture, and society. And a general reading public concerned with the polarized public sphere, difficulties in sustaining democratic governance, rampant conspiracies, and phenomena such as cancel culture and the need for trigger warnings and safe spaces, will find it enlightening."

#AssertContext reminder
My learning of Canadian Marshall McLuhan and New Yorker Neil Postman and Eva Berger from Israel - all 3 in media studies / media ecology
I did not study this at university. I was in #SocialMedia at age 13 via Christmas 1982 - I was given unrestricted access to adult social media with #CBRadio #KBRV0896 I would talk to adults late night - often lonely truckers resting long-haul in #FortWayne where #NorthAmericanVanLines was based.
Christmas 1984 age 15 I started developing social media apps and selling them mail order on floppy disc. I was a #SysOp and creator of dozens of social media sites. All self-taught, my schools did not have Commodore 128 computers nor was anyone in my family into computers (my father worked for Pepsi, chemist).
From Fort Wayne Indiana I published academic books on IBM OS/2 where I was both author and technical editor. I never finished college, I got recruited to Philadelphia and then Dallas, then I worked my way to Seattle and was teaching employees of #Microsoft and was hire for the private staff of Microsoft co-founder Paul Allen. NBA basketball owner, NFL team purchase (I represented the owner in social media messaging takeover on purchase). Again, I have no university degree, my published books and experience got me jobs as a complete outsider.
I couldn't cope with the office pressure of such world-reaching job after 3 years and in late 1999 I left corporate office job forever and worked at home. Autism burnout at age 30 before I fully understand. I did not know about my #autism until a decade later.
I was learning about autism that I started re-reading Canadian Marshall McLuhan 1950's, 1960's, 1970's and applied it to my own first-hand childhood social media experiences and what was going on with the Apple iPhone in year 2008, 2009 in #Austin where I had settled. I then predicted the #ArabSpring2010 a year before it became famous and was in #Algeria #Africa December 2010 before it was world news. And over to live in Middle East (Jordan) to study outbreak of the #Syria war in 2011.
So I take McLuhan's teachings based on experience. I am not an academic ... I've spent since 1999 trying to make sense of hands-on experience with media systems from the 1990's Bellevue Washington billionaires (2 of the 3 richest people in the world when I was on private staff in 1998).
With Elon Musk purchasing Twitter and all that is going on today, McLuhan's 1960's and 1970's teachings have been extremely articulate.

"I am resolutely opposed to all innovation, all change, but I am determined to understand what's happening because I don't choose to just sit and let the juggernaut roll over me. Many people seem to think that if you talk about something recent, you're in favour of it. The exact opposite is true in my case. Anything I talk about is almost certain to be something I'm resolutely against, and it seems to me the best way of opposing it is to understand it, and then you know where to turn off the button."
