13:38 pete_dushenski "Last December, when Rolling Stone’s account of a brutal gang rape at the University of Virginia began to unravel, some commentators argued that we should nevertheless take claims of sexual assault at face value, on the grounds that statistically, they are very likely true. “I choose to believe Jackie,” Jessica Valenti wrote in The Guardian. “I lose nothing by doing so, even if I’m later proven wrong.
13:38 pete_dushenski ” In The Washington Post, Zerlina Maxwell argued: “We should believe, as a matter of default, what an accuser says. Ultimately, the costs of wrongly disbelieving a survivor far outweigh the costs of calling someone a rapist.”"

14:34 mircea_popescu except claims of "Sexual assault" made by a native english speaker are very likely false.

14:34 kakobrekla i guess you could compress em as well
14:34 mircea_popescu i would expect less than 1% odds of them ACTUALLY being sexual assault, and perhaps as little as 5-10% of them being some sort of contravention.
14:34 mircea_popescu so, no.
14:34 kakobrekla well i asked before if you want it chunked or not and the answer was not

16:24 ascii_field rumour being, apparently, that the somewhat odd move of kicking out reporters is explained by there having been present 'komyoooonity organizers' from ferguson et al
16:24 analmaster whoa
16:24 analmaster rofl
16:24 analmaster how is that a job
16:24 mircea_popescu ascii_field the move of kicking out the media is not odd in the slightest.
16:25 ascii_field odd for 'protest'
16:25 mircea_popescu odd for dumbprotest ?
16:25 ascii_field for the trad american sort aha
16:25 mircea_popescu ima just quote tlp, because he has a very nice distillation of the problem :
16:26 mircea_popescu If you hold a protest and you aren't throwing rocks it will fail. I'm not telling you to throw rocks, I'm explaining why your march won't work.
16:26 mircea_popescu The reason "peaceful protests" don't work anymore is because now the protests are slower than the media coverage. When they threw the tea in Boston Harbor it was urgent, immediate, and by the time the press could interpret it it had already been digested by the public. But now even before the protest reaches critical mass the media, whose agents outnumber the protestors 100 to 1, has packaged and produced it, like
16:26 mircea_popescu a reality show, and by the time Naomi Klein got there I had already been told to expect someone like her. Do you see? She had already appeared before she got there. Yes, I can take pride in thinking for myself but if I'm going to be honest, all I'm doing is reacting to what I'm told
16:27 mircea_popescu the rules for successful are very simple : a) throw rocks ; b) no media.
16:28 mircea_popescu obviously you can't make "the media" aka usg agitprop machine unhave all the vans and ex-sorority chicks and whatnot. so the only practical solution when you can't prevent them acting on their options is to limit their options to one.
16:28 mircea_popescu throw rocks at the media, force them to pick the "evil people" narrative.
16:28 ascii_field usg is on both sides of this chessboard
16:29 mircea_popescu like soviet union was on both sides of THAT chessboard.
16:29 mircea_popescu yes, they're all soviets. slightly hungry pissed off low level grunt soviets vs fatcat libertard soviets.
16:29 mircea_popescu this happens to be good for bitcoin is all.

16:30 mircea_popescu ascii_field understand : if the "huge hedge fund masquerading as church" engine gripes, the democrat party will have to be restructured.

19:31 mircea_popescu all those "associate professors" in their late 30s, without tenure, ahhh...
19:32 BingoBoingo The thing about the "media got kicked out" protest in front of the J-School is... That actually would have been a good place to launch a ferguson style burn some buildings riot... If only they could find the manpower
19:33 BingoBoingo That corner of the quad connects to downtown businesses through an arch that runs through the j-school building. Serious potential to surprise some bsns's with a ransacking
19:34 mircea_popescu the thing with the thugs is, they really don't like going outside of their territory.
