90 years after the 1936 Olympics in Berlin that were instrumentalised by an authoritarian regime, I will definitely not give a minute of my time or a cent of my money to a world championship from an organisation that invented a peace prize to appease another authoritarian. #BoycottFIFA #FIFAWorldCup2026
Flipboard Culture DeskA philosophy professor at Texas A&M University has been told to change his syllabus to omit some teachings from Plato's "Symposium" in order to comply with guidance banning advocacy for “race and gender ideology.” Martin Peterson's course on contemporary moral issues covers concepts like Aristophanes' myth of the the split human and Diotima's Ladder of Love. Here's Spectrum Local News's coverage, plus a story from Daily Nous that includes the email exchange where Professor Peterson is told either to remove the modules and readings, or be assigned to a different course.

This is your regular reminder that all engineering is political. Every time you build something you change the world, you shift it in some way. Every action to shape the world is driven by a desire to make the world into a new form.
Even if you aren't actively thinking about the politics of what you are creating and its impacts, about the community you're creating and its influence, you still are responsible for the effect you have.
