@gcafebakery will never ever purchase anything from them again. Just witnessed how the staff in Branford was cheering a white man with a trump hat gloating over “his defeat” of a woman of color. #racist #Election2024

@_rnbrewer Haha! I still remember how you got me into binging the Shahs. I don’t think you yourself had been watching them yet at that point.

My friend’s mom saw me on TV yesterday; but you can see this timely documentary on China’s “tech boom” on YouTube. @KaiserKuo ‘s brilliant team came all the way to Yunnan to film with us there, during a period of major city lockdowns. @MichiganESC @umsi
In 20 minutes. If you're interested in tech in China, the U.S.-China tech contest, or just hearing some quite disparate perspectives on innovation, the tech cold war, or just want to see some excellent filmmaking by two great directors, check it out!

@yangyang_cheng so spot on, as always: Harms of tech are not specific to one political ideology. China framed as "externalized other" is harmful because it distracts from these harms. Saying what"China is doing with Tech is bad" because "China is bad" is intellectually lazy.
This week @yangyang_cheng joins @parismarx to discuss how nationalist narratives about the US-China divide distract us from tech’s real harms. In this clip, Yangyang explains why we need to look past them to truly understand tech’s problems. Full ep:
