In this episode we talk to Dr. Usama Bilal of Drexel University about Regression Discontinuity Design (RDD) and Difference-in-Differences (DiD), two quasi experimental methods that fall under the instrumental variables framework which we discussed in previous episodes. We talk about what RDD is, the different types (fuzzy vs sharp) and what we are actually estimating (LATE vs CACE). We talk about the bias vs variance tradeoff in how far from the threshold we choose to draw inferences. We talk about the assumptions that are needed for these methods to give valid estimate of effects. Then we talk about DiD and how this is a form of RDD with a second group that does not experience the discontinuity as a control. And we talk about the additional assumptions needed for this approach (e.g. parallel trends).

Det finns en avighet mitt i den svenska vanligheten. I dess centrum återfinns två herrar föda 1919 Åke Hodell och Lennart Hellsing. Magnus Haglund visar hur deras konst hänger ihop med landet lagom. Lyssna på alla avsnitt i Sveriges Radio Play. ESSÄ: Detta är en text där skribenten reflekterar över ett ämne eller ett verk. Åsikter som uttrycks är skribentens egna. Essän sändes första gången 2020.En av poeten Åke Hodells mer berömda skapelser kom till redan hösten 1937. Det skedde på Hammarby idrottsplats, under en match där Hodell var hejaklacksledare för Södra Latins fotbollslag. I sin helhet låter den så här:Sassa brassa mandelmassaHej, hej, hejIK FrejHeja Gröndaaaal!En av poängerna var förstås att inget av lagen hette Frej eller Gröndal. ”Men alla visste att de var de två sämsta lagen i gärdesgårdsserien”, som Hodell uttryckte saken.Han var stridspiloten som störtade, som blev antimilitarist och poet, teaterman och ljudkonstnär. Det finns mycket som binder ihop honom med det internationella avantgardet, med dadaismen och Fluxusrörelsen, ljudpoesin och slumpmusiken, den drömda och den politiska konsten.Men där finns också ett parallellt inhemskt spår som leder i delvis andra riktningar, lika mycket bakåt som framåt i tiden och som hör ihop med folkliga traditioner, revyer och ramsor, Andersson, Pettersson och Lundström, likaväl som med Bellman och Almqvist. Och inte minst Lennart Hellsing.Hodell och Hellsing var båda födda 1919 och i deras konstnärskap och författarskap förenas språkknådandet och dråpligheten, en fantasirikedom som får ordklangerna att ta oväntade vändningar, skapa nya molekylära föreningar, öppna sig för leken, trolleriet, de magiska förvandlingarna.Åke Hodells komiska militär General Bussig är i den bemärkelsen släkt med Kusin Vitamin och frasen ”Klipp av deras meningar, klipp sönder deras ord”, som återkommer gång på gång iLågsniff, skulle kunna vara något som Krakel Spektakel ägnar sig åt, i antiauktoritär villervalla.Det finns en svensk avighet, mitt i den svenska vanligheten och i bakgrunden finns Carl Jonas Love Almqvists experiment med rimformer och halsbrytande ordvändningar, i nonsensdikterna tillkomna under landsflykten i Amerika på 1850- och 60-talen.Det finns fascinerande korrespondenser mellan Hellsings ”Hej, sa Petronella ifrån Plaskeby, det är tid att fälla upp sitt paraply”, och Almqvists ”Kan man ej säga: / 'Ack, söta syster! Låna mig din Parasoll'? / Jo visst. Men kan den andra icke överväga och svara: ‘Syster! Den är blott ett gammal såll, / så full av hål!”I en artikel i Aftonbladet 1964, ”Dikt vid språkets gräns”, lyfter Kurt Aspelin fram Almqvistdimensionerna i Lennart Hellsings rimkonst, ett litterärt landskap där ”den folkliga ramsans bakvända visa skjuter skott och där Lennart Hellsing timrar på staden Annorlunda - ‘en stad där allting sker, ut och in och bak och fram och upp och ner'”. Enligt Aspelin handlar den här sortens skrivande om en ”naiv lekfullhet inför ljuden som konkret byggmaterial, spontan glädje vid språkets och logikens kullerbyttor”.Det skulle lika gärna kunna vara Åke Hodells konstnärskap han beskriver, inte minst det som äger rum i radiopjäsen om just Almqvists landsflyktsår i Amerika, Den stora segern vid Gettysburg från 1972. Här förvandlas verkligheten, på ett galghumoristiskt och melankoliskt vis, med hjälp av upprepningar och rytmiska förskjutningar. Samma sak många gånger om, i ständigt nya belysningar, med hjärnans elektroniska aktiviteter som fantiserar om livet där borta, på andra sidan havet. I ett brev till producenten Stina Eidem under föreställningsarbetet fångar Hodell Almqvists tvetydighet och kreativa ambivalens:”Hos Almqvist brottades fantasierna och realiteterna med varandra på ett mer uppförstora sätt än hos vanliga människor. Svårigheten för Almqvist var att skilja fantasi och verklighet åt (en åkomma som hand delar med de flesta författare).”Ja, så där formulerar sig Åke Hodell och han befinner sig i det här skedet i direktkontakt med omvandlingskrafterna och de revolutionära omstruktureringarna i Almqvists författarskap.Men för både Åke Hodell och Lennart Hellsing tycks detta bråkande med verklighetsbilderna och anammandet av fantasins förvandlingskrafter handla om någonting mer än poetisk lekfullhet. Som konstnärlig akt är det hela intimt förbundet med upplevelser av andra världskriget, av ett Sverige som är litet, ansatt och trångt och söker samförståndslösningar, och senare, efter kriget, mynnar ut i välfärdsstatens rationalism och nyttotänkande. Var sak på sin plats.Räta linjer, korrekta åsikter.Hodell och Hellsing bryter med allt detta och de gör det med konstnärlig suveränitet och en virtuositet i handlaget, i ordens placeringar, kommatecknens rytmiska förskjutningar, de oväntade tankesprången mitt i vardagsbilderna.Lennart Hellsing var visserligen aldrig, som Åke Hodell, med om någon flygolycka som påverkade hela konstnärskapet och blev en moralisk frågeställning om maktens språk. Men kriget kastar ändå sina skuggor och föder detta enorma frihetsbehov i språkets kränganden, ett kollagetänkande med skarpa linjer och förbluffande kombinationer som i hög grad påminner om Öyvind Fahlströms metod: ”Man tar en bit A och hittar en bit B och det tänder vildsint när man stryker A mot B”.Ja, det är detta de ägnar sig åt, Herr Kors-och-Tvärs och Fröken Hit-och-dit. De dansar med varandra och gläder sig åt de oregerliga rytmerna som får världen att vibrera, något som kommer till ett fantastiskt uttryck i Kanaljen i Seraljen, konstboken från 1956 där Hellsings dikter omskapats av konstnärer som X:et, Randi Fisher, Endre Nemes och Karl-Axel Perhson.Därför är det helt följdriktigt att Lennart Hellsing uppskattade en bok som Annika Elmqvists Sprätten satt på toaletten. Eller att han, i en Aftonbladetartikel 1966, kunde beskriva Maria Gripes romanfigur Hugo som ”en romantisk symbol för ett uppror mot de sociala konventionerna, mot stela regler och tidsjäktet”.Här tydliggörs släktskapet med Åke Hodells konstnärliga och politiska anarkism, rättframheten och det direkta tilltalet, som inte jamsar med och gör sig till, men har en absolut känsla för komiken när språkordningen ställs på ända.Det är detta som äger rum i Verner von Heidenstam, Nya dikter, attentatsverket från 1967 där Åke Hodell har hällt bläck över Heidenstams lyriksamling från 1915. Så kan det högtidliga och nationellt laddade språket invaderas av främmande och förstörande krafter, djur på vandring över boksidorna, en nödvändig oordning mitt i det som uppfattar sig som fast och färdigt.I dikten Medborgarsång, i strofen som Heidenstam inleder ”Vi stridde gemensamt för hem och härd,/då våra kuster förbrändes,” låter det så här när Hodell gått loss med bläcket:Vi stridde gemensamt för hem härdDå våra k rändesEj herNär vEj hermenDet äck på Sveriges bAtt eter pengar. Det är skoch tempelmen kasta soch taVi ör eg k, et skiljan det v vilja.Magnus Haglund

Nell'88° puntata di Illuminismo psichedelico lo psicologo Emanuele Perrone, membro di ITARDD (Rete Italia riduzione del Danno) e della Cooperativa Parsec di Roma, ci ha raccontato nel dettaglio cos'è la Riduzione del Danno e come opera a livello pratico, articolando una serie di interventi a carattere socio-sanitario erogati da diversi gruppi di professionisti e volontari, seguendo approcci basati su evidenze scientifiche di carattere trasversale e preposti a far incontrare i servizi sanitari a diverse persone in diversi contesti, da chi soffre di disturbi alimentari, a chi è ludopatico, fino a chi fa uso e abuso di sostanze. Benché sia uno dei quattro pilastri della politica della Comunità Europea sulle droghe (gli altri sono: prevenzione, trattamento, lotta al narcotraffico), la Riduzione del Danno è spesso misconosciuta e sottofinanziata in Italia, pur consentendo al sistema sanitario di risparmiare evitando diversi interventi di soccorso e degenza. Va ricordato che l'obiettivo generale della RDD è la limitazione dei rischi e il contenimento dei danni droga correlati piuttosto che la prevenzione del consumo in sé, e i destinatari sono tanto i consumatori attivi di sostanze, quanto le loro famiglie, le reti di prossimità e la collettività sociale nel suo complesso.

In this episode, your host, Leandra Costa, talks with Relationships Done Different Facilitator Layal Alnajjar about Finding The Fun & Joy In Relationship. Layal is a Relationships Done Different facilitator and creates classes in the Middle East. Layal used to struggle with relationships and found herself choosing from a space of lack and need. She believed she needed a partner to ‘complete' her. Through honouring her relationship with herself, she has discovered how to create a life of joy and abundance. Key points from this episode's conversation Living a life of total ignorance When choosing a relationship, where do you choose from? Switching from functioning from a space of need Finding the joy in your relationship with yourself Tools to get out of the space of need and lack Living a life of total ignorance Before Relationships Done Different, Layal lived a life of total ignorance. It was a litany of judgments, and she believed she was always wrong when it came to relationships. The first Access class she took was not Relationships Done Different, but Talk To The Entities! However, with the entities and that relationship with the universe, the invitation to be a RDD facilitator became clear. Being You Changing the World changed things for her. It clicked for her that she could be herself and that being herself was okay, and she began to seek more. The first relationship she realized she was sucking at was the relationship with herself. She recognized that she wasn't demanding enough of herself, and she struggled with the idea that she didn't fit in with others. And without knowing how to fit in, she acted from the place of wanting to show others how different she was, so they could judge her. She believed she needed to struggle. Now Layal doesn't have the need to show others she is different: she knows she is different. When choosing a relationship, where do you choose from? Something Layal has noticed in her facilitation of Relationships Done Different, the sessions she has and the Access classes she takes, is that often people are seeking relationships out of need, and not out of the acknowledgment that a relationship could complement their lives. People feel there is a lack within themselves when they are not in a relationship, and that in the eyes of society they are wrong. They can't enjoy their lives, even if their lives are full of excitement and joy, as there's always this nagging feeling of lack. For example, there was a time when Layal used to feel like she was always the third wheel with other couples. The feeling of the third wheel was so strong that she started to think that there was something wrong with her, and that she shouldn't go out. When she acknowledged that it was okay that she wasn't in a relationship, she could create a relationship from a space of abundance and having another person as a complement to her life, instead of completing it. Switching from functioning from a space of need In Layal's first Relationships Done Different class, even before becoming a facilitator, she had an ‘ah-ha' moment. There are so many questions that you don't ask yourself when you are or aren't in a relationship. And when you have those questions coming at you, it's like eye-opening. Creating a relationship was never in Layal's realm of possibilities before. She felt lonely, trapped, sad, depressed and, even though her divorce was her choice, she still felt inadequate. There wasn't an inkling of thinking that she could create, firstly, a relationship with herself. That was never on the table. She always thought people got into a relationship in order to feel complete and that relationships were the only way to feel complete. But what is ‘complete,' really? That's the lack, and the need. And why would you choose lack and need? Instead, she started acknowledging that everything she does and all the people in her life are to increase the fun and joy that she already has in her life, and that she doesn't need a man in her life to show her what fun is. She is the creator of her life, her relationships, her fun and her money. Finding the joy in your relationship with yourself When you really start to create and enjoy that relationship with yourself, you'll be able to create the relationship you're looking for. Many aspects of your life change when you get out of the need and lack elements. Everything becomes so joyful, and the amount of pleasure we can have in being in a relationship with ourselves is unmeasurable. Start by honoring yourself and knowing what you really require. Many of us love romance, but how often do we romance ourselves? How many times do you light a candle when you're having dinner alone? How many times do you enjoy good music and dance when you're alone? We tend to wait and, as Layal always says in her classes, “if you're waiting you're wasting.” Don't wait for the candles to be lit by someone else. Do it for yourself. How many times have you waited for someone else to give you the gift of your life? And how does that make any sense? Tools to get out of the space of need and lack How can you find that joy within your relationship with yourself? It can be by doing something that used to give you joy as a child or when you were younger. Anything, like dancing by yourself or going for a walk or giving yourself a massage! The first thing Layal asks every day is: “Where is my fun and joy?” She also asks what her reality is, because often everything we use - especially in relationships - we use from the point of view of others. We look to other people and we dismiss our lives through other people's point of view. When we ask what our reality is, we become more present with ourselves. It doesn't mean other people's realities are wrong or right, they're just not yours. If you're going to do anything, whether it's opening a bank account or buying groceries, ask yourself: “ Would I have fun?” It's almost like you are demanding to have fun, from every molecule of the universe. There is a saying somewhere: ‘You are what you seek.' What if you could seek fun? What if relationships were just fun and games?

La notizia centrale, introvabile sulla stampa italiana, è che MAPS, l'associazione americana che promuove la ricerca sugli impieghi terapeutici degli psichedelici dall'anno della loro messa al bando, ha pubblicato su Nature Medicine i risultati dello studio di conferma sulla fase 3 delle ricerche sull'impiego dell'MDMA per la cura della sindrome da stress post-traumatico (PTSD).

Buon venerdì Stupefan!Siamo arrivati all'episodio 130 con una scioltezza che definiremmo quasi lisergica e una certezza incrollabile: siamo qui, più convinti di quando abbiamo iniziato, a rompere lo stigma nei confronti delle persone che usano droghe. In questa nuova puntata ci occupiamo esattamente di questo, parlando di una delle sostanze più demonizzate della storia recente! Invenzione del narcotraffico per fare fronte alla sovrapproduzione di cocaina a metà degli anni '70 e al conseguente crollo del prezzo, il crack non ha una diffusione a livello di massa finché non incontra la migliore pubblicità che un governo possa offrire ad una sostanza illegale: la campagna di demonizzazione e di terrorismo intrapresa dagli Stati Uniti in quegli anni fa esplodere il consumo in breve tempo. Senza informazione, sensibilizzazione sui rischi legati ad un consumo troppo frequente, strumenti sterili per fumarlo, il consumo di crack può essere molto difficile da gestire ed è proprio parlandone che si rompe il circolo vizioso di censura e stigma che caratterizzano questo psicoattivo. Ma cos'è il crack? Come si cucina? Che effetti ha? Ma soprattutto, chi lo consuma? Rispondendo a queste domande inizieremo a tracciarne un profilo, a smontare fake news ad esso legate e a recuperare le introvabili informazioni per la riduzione del danno per il consumo di questa sostanza.

徒手空拳日記 2022年8月10日水曜日 NHKの世論調査で、岸田内閣の支持率が、いきなりがくっと落ちたんですけど、この世論調査の設計をよーく見てみると、なんと標本の半分が、60歳以上であり、標本の3分の1は、70歳以上でした。この世論調査は、RDD法という、無作為に電話をかけて、最後まで答えてくれた人を、そのまま有効回答にする、適当なやりかたですが、固定電話で集める回答が、まだ全体の4割を占めているんです。 つまり、イマドキ固定電話があって、電話がなったらほいほい出て、アンケートに最後まで答える、暇な老人に偏っています。NHKはわざと、老人の意思が強く出るように、インチキの調査設計をしています。2年前のFNNと産経新聞による合同世論調査の捏造は、一応、孫請の不正と言い張りましたが、NHKのこれは、委託先ではなく発注者のふせいなので、フジサンケイグループよりも、さらに悪質、ひどいと思います。固定電話のサンプルを廃止して、ショートメッセージからウェブ調査に飛ばすような設計で、人口動態にあわせた標本構成にしないと、NHKは血税としての受信料を、わざと無駄遣いしていると言われても、仕方ありません。 NHKが、受信者のみなさまなぞ、統計なんてわからないとなめくさり、わざと誤ったデータをつかっていることをスルーして、この情報をもとに、鬼の首でも取ったかのように、なにかわかった気になって、ものごとを考えていると思い込んでいる薄らばかが、SNSにも、たくさんいます。You Tubeを観るなら、1次情報のちゃんと含まれているものに絞ったほうが、時間の無駄になりませんね。そこらへんのマスメディア発の情報を鵜呑みにした、しょうもないただの感想動画には、なんの価値もありません。 岸田文雄、はやくも3シャッフルめの組閣は、なにに似てるかというと、東芝の粉飾決算がバレたあとの、カギカッコつきの体制一新みたいなものでしょうね。とりあえず禊をしてる雰囲気だけで、傍流の清和会によって、無駄に延命されたはりぼてのバックラッシュ自民党が、バラバラに崩れていくプロセスの一部でしかありません。 ひとつ朗報は、菅義偉が完全閣外、ガネーシャの会も冷や飯どころか冷凍ごはん、ということで、単なる官製闇市である、ふるさと納税が、いよいよなくなります。おそらくは、ふるさと納税のプラットフォーマーとか、返礼品事業者の大きなスキャンダルが暴露され、なくなる方向へ一気に傾くだろうと、私は予想しています。 なにしろ、ふるさと納税は、不正の温床です。総務省がやろうと思えばいくらでも、悪いことが出てきます。菅義偉とか、高橋洋一とかの意気地を丸々っと砕くためにも、総務省も、財務省も、一気呵成に、ふるさと納税をぶっ壊してくると思います。円安と物価高で、もはや返礼品もしょぼしょぼになっており、潮時とはこのことだろうなと思います。よかったですね。 本日は以上です。ありがとうございました。 人のゆく裏に道あり花の山

  Richard Gale & Gary Null PhD Progressive Radio Network, January 7, 2022 During the past two years, the rise in wokeness and its cancel culture has shocked the sensibilities and moral fabric of the nation. It has fuelled divisions between races, class and economic status, levels of education and political allegiances. However, the anger that wokeness has carried into civil discourse is a symptom of a much deeper causal factor buried in the national psyche; that is, America's pervasive “reality deficit disorder (RDD).” This is a condition that has proliferated across the American landscape since the Age of Enlightenment and the 19th century's advent of scientific materialism as a secular religion.  The proponents of modern behaviorism and the neurosciences are likewise saturated with RDD. The Woke self-congratulating experts and false prophets are its public face.  These are plastic liberal intellectuals who have found reinforced their sense of self-righteousness by spreading the post-modern gospel of Robin DiAngelo's 2018 bestseller White Fragility. Despite the widespread adulation DiAngelo has received from liberal educators, the mega-corporate elite, and the left media, she has managed to jockey herself away from the deep scrutiny her writings and lectures deserve.  An exception is Jonathan Church, author of Reinventing Racism, who brilliantly exposes DiAngelo's flaws and deconstructs her façade of her impartial objectivity.  Church takes a more philosophical offensive to shed light on DiAngelo's implicit biases and contradictions that in turn distort the very ideas she attempts to proselytize. While we agree wholeheartedly with Church's polemic, we would take a more cognitive approach and state that DiAngelo's racial theories of irredeemable Whiteness as an inherent social construct have no basis in reality whatsoever. White Fragility reads like a tantrum by an author with a third-rate intellect who is deeply confused about her own gender and racial identity. “All white people,” DiAngelo wants us to believe, “are invested in and collude with racism.” If you were born White then racism is built into your socialized development and behavior regardless whether your family background is exemplary of racial justice or not. There can be no escape from this curse, DiAngelo suggests, no redemption or purification by fire regardless of how much penitence, public service or charity you perform for the greater good. We wonder whether she would include the indigenous blond hair, blue-eyed Finno-Ugric peoples inhabiting the northern forests and tundra of Scandinavia and Russia's Kola Peninsula as being socially structured and therefore colluding in the world's racism. The author reminds us of someone who has read every published book about chocolate and thus feels qualified to write one of her own despite never having tasted chocolate. Philosophy and postmodern sociology in general, notably the modern philosophies of science and mind, often suffer from this mental affliction. They write books about other philosophers' books who in turn wrote books about their predecessors' scribbling. Right-wing critics of wokeness and certain factions within postmodern Critical Race Theory likewise indulge in a similar cognitive hallucination built upon feeble-minded pre-Galilean superstitions. Their perceptions about themselves and the world, their righteous anger and biases, are similar to dreamscapes, phantoms they have conjured and which can have dire long-term consequences to the welfare of innocent victims prejudiced and canceled by their vitriol and condemnation. There have always been conflicting ideologies, cherished beliefs and inflamed emotions towards racial discrepancies, social order and justice or how the nation should be governed. But today these cognitive afflictions, masquerading as passions and righteous causes have disintegrated into tribalism. This is now fomenting new class and racial distinctions and struggles as well as media turf wars. No one can accurately predict where this collective reality deficit disorder will lead ultimately but it certainly won't contribute to a positive advancement of human well-being. It repeats the old adage of garbage in, garbage out. “The greatest need of our time,” the Trappist monk Thomas Merton wrote in his Conjectures of a Guilty Bystander, “is to clean out the enormous mass of mental and emotional rubbish that clutters our minds and makes all political and social life a mass illness. Without this housecleaning we cannot begin to see. Unless we see we cannot think.”  Merton believed that this “purification must begin with the mass media.”  We would suggest it also begins with our educational institutions. Teachers who embrace White Fragility's social folly and logical fallacies need to introspectively gaze and observe the destructive ataxia nesting in their own minds.  If anyone wonders why the nation is so angry, screaming and protesting, one reason is because the failed neoliberal experiment, the culture of political nepotism, a captured and biased media, and a thoroughly corrupt judiciary have created this horror show. And DiAngelo seemingly wants to gather tinder to keep racial conflagrations burning. "Nothing in all the world is more dangerous," Martin Luther King lamented, "than sincere ignorance and conscientious stupidity." It is our deep ignorance about not first knowing ourselves and appreciating our intrinsic interconnections with each other and the environment that perpetuates the suffering around us. These deeper existential relationships can potentially outsmart and surpass the benefits Critical Race Theory has to offer. Underlying any social structure is to be found cognitive causal relationships. This includes our attachments to whatever accomplishments and failures we experience in our lives through racial identity, which may lead to a reality deficit with all of its superiority complexes, apathy and depression. First, there is sufficient empirical science to reach a consensus that we are a culture that has become habituated to mistaking its unfounded perceptions about itself and the world as reality-based. This applies to our cognitive conceptions of Whiteness, Blackness, Yellowness, etc. Church makes this clear; DiAngelo's use of the term Whiteness is “nebulous” and “vague.”  He points out that her logic falls into a Kafka Trap, referring to Kafka's novel The Trial when an unassuming man is dragged into court and accused for an unspecified crime; subsequently his unwavering denial is itself interpreted as absolute proof that the accusation is true. “Yes, all white people are complicit with racism,” writes DiAngelo, “People will insist that they are not racist… This is the kind of evidence that many white people used to exempt themselves from that system. It is not possible to be exempt from it.” Consequently, for DiAngelo, Whites can only speak about their “whiteness” in terms of how it reinforces an implicit racism within the social system. But from a neuro-scientific perspective, all colored racisms are skewed perceptions of reality. For example, when we gaze into a deep azure sky we immediately assume there is physical blue over our heads. However, there are no blue-colored photons reaching our retinas. Rather, our brains receive the emitted photons and through a complex channeling of information from the eye to the visual cortex. The brain then Photoshops the color azure and projects it through our glance into the empty space of the sky. The same is true whether we gaze at a verdant forest canopy, a fiery sunset, the fluorescent, shimmering hues of a fanning peacock's feathers or observing an African, Asian or European person crossing the street. There is nothing mysterious behind this; it is visual brain science 101. No neuroscientist questions this visual phenomenon.  We reify the sensory stimuli the brain receives from the objective world and then grasp and cling to these as being factually real. Theoretically race may be understood as only a conventional or relative appearance arising to our mental perceptions. No absolute objective claims can be made about it; therefore, there cannot be any absolute analyses or one-size-fits-all solutions for confronting racism either. In striking contrast to White Fragility's cognitive deficiencies, we may consider an argument posed by the great Jewish German existentialist Martin Buber. Buber speaks of an I-You relationship when we engage with another person as another subject instead of as an object. There's a subject there, and that subject is every bit as real as the subject over here. For example, as much as I might care about my own well-being, then so does another person. To transcend White Fragility's divisions and its many shortcomings, which relate to others as I-Its -- as mere objects -- we simply need to be aware of Buber's advice, and become fully engaged with that reality. Buber highlights this as a profoundly existential problem in modern society. It is debilitating.  It is dehumanizing, although for DiAngelo and the cancel culture preserving racial I-It relationships is not only valid but essential. When we regard others simply in terms of whether the color of their skin is appealing or unappealing, pleasant or unpleasant, superior or inferior, and so forth we are bifurcating impressions that have no substance in reality. We are simply treating other sentient beings as if they have no more sentience, no more subjectivity, no more presence from their own side than a robot or computer. But that seems fine for DiAngelo and her tragic dehumanizing dogma. If DiAngelo were unintelligent or had severe brain damage, we might understand and would certainly sympathize. But she -- and we would argue many of those who would carry White Fragility's banner into school classrooms -- are likely very educated people. That is the calamity and the clear evidence for the deep-seated spiritual impoverishment when a person is viewed as nothing more than the race of their physical bodies. If anti-racial wokeness is true, then the more deeply we probe and investigate it, the truer it should appear. This was one of William James' fundamental principles when he made efforts to turn the psychology of his day into a valid science. If James' methodology had not been obliterated by the rise of behaviorism in 1910, psychology would be completely different today. We might actually be treating and curing people of mental disorders without prescribing life-long medications. On the other hand, if DiAngelo's hypothesis is false, the more deeply one investigates, which includes introspection, the more false it will appear. That is where robust inquiry comes in: to determine what is simply true regardless of whatever your personal unsubstantiated and biased beliefs about it might be. What you believe has absolutely no impact upon whether something is true or not. This is also basic Buddhist epistemology that has been repeatedly replicated by contemplatives for several millennia. Neuroscience, including its gross failures and tendencies towards metaphysical realism, has more to tell us about the inherent dangers in White Fragility's doctrine. First, modern brain science has not produced an iota of evidence to confirm that the mind and consciousness are solely a product or output originating in neuron and synaptic activity. None. Contrary to the evidence, most neuroscientists and evolutionary biologists nevertheless embrace this opinion as a settled matter. But it is ridiculous to believe that evolution somehow dragged along our ancient single-celled ancestors until some point was reached when a conscious mind -- a “nothing” that is not observable, not measurable, not quantifiable, without atoms or photons, mass, electric charge or spin – mysteriously arose out of something, such as genes and biomolecular phenomena. Therefore cognitive scientists pretend to know something about the mind and consciousness when in fact they haven't a clue. Although DiAngelo is not stating that socialized racism among Whites is genetically determined, the trajectory of her argument has the potential to lead towards that conclusion. She does consider systemic White racism as being unconscious. Therefore she has moved her social theory into psychology. Since modern psychology today is becoming increasingly informed by the neurosciences, which in turn is being informed by evolutionary biology, it is only a small leap away to find her theory complementing genetic determinism as a means to explain Whiteness' conditioned racism. If her socialized determinism, and that of the neuroscience and evolutionary biology fields, are correct, then it would break the fundamental physical laws of energy conservation and causal efficacy. In effect, DiAngelo is saying White people have no choice. It's socialized chemistry or its socialized chemistry; either way its socialized chemistry.  In effect, DiAngelo is admitting that her own perceptions about reality are fundamentally flawed. Why is that? Dr. Donald Hoffman has been a professor of neuroscience at the University of California at Irvine for over three decades. He has an impeccable background having studied artificial intelligence at MIT. But unlike the vast majority of his colleagues, Hoffman broke ranks and passed beyond neuroscience's 19th century mechanistic base and dared to study modern quantum physics and relativity theory. Theoretical physics is almost anathema in human biological research and medicine, which is why these soft sciences have made so little progress to improve human health and well-being. Hoffman has performed hundreds of thousands of simulations comparing different species and their chances for survival based upon their ability to perceive and comprehend reality more accurately or not. His discoveries are startling and utterly revolutionary. Hoffman discovered, across the board, species that best perceive reality go extinct more rapidly than competing species that only perceive what is necessary for them to remain fit and survive. During an interview following a TED Talk, Hoffman stated, “according to evolution by natural selection,” – and here he is limiting himself solely to evolutionary biological theory and not the various competing theories about the nature of consciousness – “an organism that sees reality as it is will never be more fit than an organism of equal complexity that sees none of reality but is just tuned to fitness. Never.” In other words, evolution has nothing to do with perceiving reality more clearly, but only to be more fit in order to adapt, survive and procreate. And now physicists are even telling us that the primal cause behind all physical objects may be consciousness itself, which has no association whatsoever with natural selection. For example, Professor Edward Witten, regarded as “the world's smartest” physicist at the Institute for Advanced Studies at Princeton, has been compared to Newton and Einstein. Witten doesn't believe science will ever understand consciousness. “I think consciousness will remain a mystery,” Witten stated during a lecture, ”I have a much easier time imagining how we understand the Big Bang than I have imagining how we can understand consciousness.” Or we can listen to Stanford University theoretical physicist Andre Linde: “The current scientific model of the material world obeying laws of physics has been so successful that we forget our starting point as conscious observers, and conclude that matter is the only reality and that perceptions are only helpful for describing it. But in fact, we are substituting the reality of our experience of the universe with a conceptually contrived belief…” One may feel our critique is too abstract with little or no practical application; however to at least conceptually understand race in terms of our sensory perceptions can have enormous benefits to cut through and lessen the false semblances that arise from reality deficit disorder that winds up producing books such as White Fragility. Moreover, contrary to DiAngelo's arguments, British journalist Melanie Phillips offers a clearer understanding for why we should not rely upon the pundits of anti-racial wokeness to save us from ourselves. Despite disagreeing with Phillips on many of her other socio-political positions, she correctly identifies the fundamental flaws being voiced by arrested development wokeness across our campuses and within the corporate wing of the Democrat party. First, it is unable to establish a hierarchy of values and morals. For example, if one refuses to say that any lifestyle or culture is better than another, then it cannot be said that liberalism is better than conservatism or any other ideology.  Consequently, faux liberalism cannot legitimately defend the very principles upon which it defines itself: racial and gender equality, freedom of speech and religion, justice and tolerance, and class struggle.  It contradicts its own principles and follows DiAngelo's footsteps to remove the dignity of the individual, which in the past was at the heart of authentic liberalism and once served as its moral backbone. What we are witnessing therefore in Woke liberalism – and in DiAngelo's reinvention of racism -- is “the strong dominating the weak,” and this is an ill-liberal ideology that is already showing signs of having catastrophic consequences in classrooms and the workplace. Finally, if DiAngelo's theory is correct, then all Whites, without exception, in American history, were unconsciously transmuted into racists starting at the time of their birth. What is her proof? Is there any scientific evidence to support this outrageous claim? Did she consider the lack of sensitivity towards other peoples and races who were victims of racial identity and violence, such as the Jews who experienced genocide at hands of their Nazi overlords? And what would she say against those Whites who have fought against racism throughout the American experience, such as the Abolitionists in the US and UK who put their bodies at great risk?  In principle she is labeling them too as racist despite their fighting, protesting and even dying as committed anti-racists. Many Whites have embraced other races and cultures with open arms; however, DiAngelo wants us to believe this legacy was a sham, because in some strange voodoo way they were unconsciously racist. Is this not the height of hubris and arrogance?

Our guests discuss some of the challenges with RDD systems, especially the Beef Quality Assurance challenges. Other challenges include failure of drug delivery, environmental impacts of darts, human safety, misdiagnosis and tissue damage.  Veterinarians should consult clients on the appropriate and inappropriate use of RDDs and they should not be utilized to decrease treatment time or for convenience. RDDs should not be a replacement for good facilities or stockmanship, but do have a place for appropriate use in certain range conditions.  Relevant links:1.       Discussing the Dart Delivery Method for Treating Cattle – South Dakota State University 2.       Remote drug delivery systems: Just another gadget or proven technology? – Progressive Cattleman3.       Darting BQA Problems – Angus Beef Bulletin4.       Failure of high-capacity pneumatic darts to consistently deliver tulathromycin to calves after remote drug delivery – J.F.

Woke Critical Race Theory as Reality Deficit Disorder   Richard Gale & Gary Null PhD Progressive Radio Network, July 1, 2021     Let us be clear. The recent rise in Wokeness is another symptom of America's “reality deficit disorder (RDD),” a condition that continues to proliferate across the American landscape since the Age of Enlightenment and the 19th century's advent of scientific materialism as a secular religion.  The proponents of modern behaviorism and the neurosciences are likewise saturated with RDD. The gurus of modern Critical Race Theory, the Woke self-congratulating experts and false prophets, are its public face.  These are plastic intellectuals who have found a righteous purpose spread the message in the Woke Critical Race movement's bible, Robin DiAngelo's bestseller White Fragility. Identity politics, efforts to consolidate groupthink in order to promulgate illusions about race, social status, and gender have found their voice in DiAngelo's and Ibram Kendi's writings.   Despite the widespread adulation DiAngelo has received from liberal educators, the mega-corporate elite, and the liberal media, she has managed to jockey herself away from the deep scrutiny her writings and lectures deserve.  An exception is Jonathan Church, author of Reinventing Racism, who brilliantly exposes DiAngelo's flaws and deconstructs her façade of being objective.  Church takes a more philosophical offensive to shed light on DiAngelo's implicit biases and contradictions that in turn distort the very ideas she attempts to proselytize. While we agree wholeheartedly with Church's polemic, we would take a more scientific approach and state that DiAngelo's racial theories of irredeemable Whiteness have no basis in reality whatsoever.    White Fragility reads like a tantrum by an author deeply confused about her own identity and with a third-rate intellect. “All white people,” DiAngelo wants us to believe, “are invested in and collude with racism.” If you were born White then racism is built into your genetic inheritance. There can be no escape from this curse, DiAngelo suggests, no redemption or purification by fire regardless of how much penitence, public service or charity you perform for the greater good. We wonder whether she would include the indigenous White Finno-Ugric peoples inhabiting the most northern forests and tundra of Scandinavia and Russia's Kola Peninsula are also genetically colluding in perpetuating the world's racism.   The author reminds us of someone who has read every published book about chocolate and thus feels qualified to write one of their own; however, the person has never actually tasted chocolate. Philosophy and postmodern sociology in general, notably the modern philosophies of science and mind, suffer from this mental affliction. They write books about other philosophers' books who in turn wrote books about their predecessors' scribbling. Many authors writing about religion suffer from this same malady.  Right-wing critics to RCT Wokeness likewise indulge in a similar cognitive hallucination built upon feeble-minded pre-Galilean superstitions.  When the time comes to take their last breath, they will have failed to achieve any conscious lucidity to read the last page in the novel of their lives.  Their perceptions of themselves and the world, their righteous anger and biases, will be revealed as dreamscapes –nevertheless the phantoms they have conjured will have had dire consequences to the welfare of innocent victims prejudiced and canceled by their vitriol and condemnation.    There have always been conflicting ideologies, cherished beliefs and inflamed emotions towards racial discrepancies, social order or how the nation should be governed. But today these cognitive afflictions, masquerading as passions and righteous causes such as Woke Culture's anti-racism, have disintegrated into tribalism. This is now fomenting new class and racial distinctions and struggles as well as media turf wars. No one can accurately predict where this collective reality deficit disorder will lead ultimately but it certainly won't contribute to any positive advancement of human well-being. It repeats the old adage of garbage in, garbage out.   “The greatest need of our time,” the Trappist monk Thomas Merton wrote in his Conjectures of a Guilty Bystander, “is to clean out the enormous mass of mental and emotional rubbish that clutters our minds and makes all political and social life a mass illness. Without this housecleaning we cannot begin to see. Unless we see we cannot think.”  Merton believed that this “purification must begin with the mass media.”  We would suggest it also begins with our educational institutions. Teachers who embrace White Fragility's social folly, need to introspectively gaze and observe the destructive ataxia nesting in their own minds.  If anyone wonders why the nation is so angry, screaming and protesting, it is because the failed neoliberal experiment, the culture of political nepotism, a captured and biased media, and a thoroughly corrupt judiciary have created this horror show. DiAngelo seemingly wants to gather tinder keep racial conflagrations burning.   "Nothing in all the world is more dangerous," Martin Luther King lamented, "than sincere ignorance and conscientious stupidity." It is our deep ignorance about not knowing ourselves and appreciating our intrinsic interconnections with each other and the environment that perpetuates the suffering around us. These deeper existential relationships outsmart and surpass any value Critical Race Theory might offer. This includes our attachments to whatever accomplishments and failures we experience in our lives through racial identity, which lead to a reality deficit with all of its superiority complexes, apathy and depression.    First, there is sufficient empirical science to reach a consensus that we are a culture that has become habituated to mistaking its unfounded perceptions about itself and the world as reality-based. This applies to our cognitive conceptions of Whiteness, Blackness, Yellowness, etc. Church makes this clear; DiAngelo's use of the term Whiteness is “nebulous” and “vague.”  He points out that her logic falls into a Kafka Trap, referring to Kafka's novel The Trial when an unassuming man is dragged into court and accused for an unspecified crime; subsequently his unwavering denial is itself interpreted as absolute proof that the accusation is true. “Yes, all white people are complicit with racism,” writes DiAngelo, “People will insist that they are not racist… This is the kind of evidence that many white people used to exempt themselves from that system. It is not possible to be exempt from it.” Consequently, for DiAngelo and Kendi, Whites can only speak about their “whiteness” in terms of how it reinforces systemic racism. But from a neuro-scientific perspective, all colored racisms are skewed perceptions of reality.    For example, when we gaze into a deep azure sky we immediately assume there is physical blue over our heads. However, there are no blue-colored photons reaching our retinas. Rather, our brains receive the emitted photons and through a complex channeling of information from the eye to the visual cortex the brain then Photoshops the color azure and projects it through our glance into the empty space of the sky. The same is true whether we gaze at a verdant forest canopy, a fiery sunset, the fluorescent, shimmering hues of a fanning peacock's feathers or observing an African, Asian or European person crossing the street.     There is nothing mysterious behind this; it is visual brain science 101. No neuroscientist questions this visual phenomena.  We reify the sensory stimuli the brain receives from the objective world and then grasp and cling to these as being factually real. Theoretically race may be understood as only a conventional or relative appearance arising to our mental perceptions. No absolutely objective claims can be made about it; therefore, there cannot be any absolute analyses or solutions for confronting racism either.    In striking contrast to White Fragility's cognitive deficiencies, we may consider an argument posed by the great German and Jewish existentialist philosopher Martin Buber. Buber speaks of an I-You relationship when we engage with another person as another subject instead of as an object. There's a subject there, and that subject is every bit as real as the subject over here. As much as I care about my own well-being, then so do you. To transcend Critical Race Theory's divisions and its many shortcomings, which relate to others as I-Its -- as mere objects -- we simply need to be aware of Buber's advice, and become fully engaged with that reality. Buber highlights this as a profoundly existential problem in modern society. It is debilitating.  It is dehumanizing and horrid, although for DiAngelo and Critical Wokeness preserving racial I-It relationships is not only valid but essential. When we regard others simply in terms of whether the color of their skin is appealing or unappealing, pleasant or unpleasant, superior or inferior, and so forth we are bifurcating impressions that have no substance in reality. We are simply treating other sentient beings as if they have no more sentience, no more subjectivity, no more presence from their own side than a robot or computer. But that seems fine for DiAngelo and her tragic dehumanizing dogma, the output of a massive reality deficit disorder.    If DiAngelo were unintelligent or had severe brain damage, we might understand and would certainly sympathize. But she and Ibram Kendi -- and we would argue all of their followers who carry White Fragility's banner into school classrooms -- are likely very educated people. That is the calamity and the clear evidence for the deep-seated spiritual impoverishment when a person is viewed as nothing more than the race of their physical bodies.   If antii-racial Wokeness is true, then the more deeply we probe and investigate it, the truer it should appear. This is one of William James' fundamental principles when he made efforts to turn the psychology of his day into a real science. If Jame's methodololgy had not been obliterated by the rise of behaviorism in 1910, psychology would be completely different today. We would actually be treating and curing people of mental disorders, and with life-long medications. On the other hand, if DiAngelo's hypothesis is false, the more deeply you investigate, which includes introspection, the more false it will appear. That is where robust inquiry comes in: to determine what is simply true regardless of whatever your personal unsubstantiated and biased beliefs about it might be. What you believe has absolutely no impact upon whether something is true or not. This is also basic Buddhist epistemology that has been repeatedly replicated by contemplatives for several millennia. However, for the Woked who cling to their beliefs most fiercely they are trapped in a cave of their own system's illusions.    Neuroscience, including its gross failures and tendencies towards metaphysical realism, has more to tell us about the inherent dangers in White Fragility's doctrine. First, modern brain science has not produced an iota of evidence to confirm that the mind and consciousness are solely a product or output originating in neuron and synaptic activity. None. Contrary to the evidence, most neuroscientists and evolutionary biologists nevertheless embrace this opinion as being a settled matter. But it is ridiculous to believe that evolution somehow dragged along our ancient single-celled ancestors until some point was reached when a conscious mind -- a “nothing” that is not observable, not measurable, not quantifiable, without atoms or photons, mass, electric charge or spin – mysteriously arose out of something, such as genes and biomolecular phenomena. Therefore cognitive scientists pretend to know something about the mind and consciousness when in fact they haven't a clue.    If the genetic determinism of DiAngelo and other materialists populating the evolutionary and biological sciences is correct, then it would break the fundamental physical laws of energy conservation and causal efficacy. Rather the absolutist determinism that underpins White Fragility's entire message is just the inverse side of the coin with Evangelical creationism. In effect, DiAngelo is saying White people have no choice. It's genetic chemistry or its genetic chemistry; either way its genetic chemistry.  By disguising and recasting an evolutionary and genetic determinism about racist Whiteness into her critical race theory, DiAngelo is in fact admitting that her own perceptions about reality are fundamentally flawed.    Why is that?   Dr. Donald Hoffman has been a professor of neuroscience at the University of California at Irvine for over three decades. He has an impeccable background having studied artificial intelligence at MIT. But unlike the vast majority of his colleagues, Hoffman broke ranks and passed beyond neuroscience's 19th century mechanistic base and dared to study modern quantum physics and relativity theory. Theoretical physics is almost anathema in human biological reseach and medicine, which is why these soft sciences have made so little progress to improve human health and well-being. Hoffman has performed hundreds of thousands of simulations comparing different species and their chances for survival based upon their ability to perceive and comprehend reality more accurately or not. His discoveries are startling and utterly revolutionary.    Hoffman discovered, across the board, species that best perceive reality go extinct more rapidly than competing species that only perceive what is necessary for them to remain fit and survive. During an interview following a TED Talk, Hoffman stated, “according to evolution by natural selection,” – and here he is limiting himself solely to evolutionary biological theory not quantum theories about the natural world or the deeper theories about the nature of consciousness – “an organism that sees reality as it is will never be more fit than an organism of equal complexity that sees none of reality but is just tuned to fitness. Never.” In other words, evolution has nothing to do with perceiving reality more clearly, but only to be more fit in order to adapt, survive and procreate. And now physicists are even telling us that perceiving reality accurately is consciousness itself, which has no association whatsoever with natural selection. Yet this only occur after we have subdued our connate and conditioned mental and emotional afflictions that keep us chained to reality deficit disorder   For example, Professor Edward Witten, regarded as “the world's smartest” physicist at the Institute for Advanced Studies at Princeton, has been compared to Newton and Einstein. Witten doesn't believe science will ever understand consciousness. “I think consciousness will remain a mystery,” Witten stated during a lecture, ”I have a much easier time imagining how we understand the Big Bang than I have imagining how we can understand consciousness.” Or we can listen to Stanford University theoretical physicist Andre Linde:   “The current scientific model of the material world obeying laws of physics has been so successful that we forget our starting point as conscious observers, and conclude that matter is the only reality and that perceptions are only helpful for describing it. But in fact, we are substituting the reality of our experience of the universe with a conceptually contrived belief…”   One may feel our critique is too abstract with no practical application; however to at least conceptually understand race in terms of our sensory perceptions can have enormous benefits to cut through and lessen the false semblances that arise from reality deficit disorder and then produce books such as White Fragility and How To Be An Antiracist.   Therefore, if neuroscientists and modern neo-Darwinists such as Richard Dawkins, Daniel Dennett and Robin DiAngelo, who believe they are telling the complete story about human existence, racial differences and a physical causality to the human mind, and that all of these emerged from natural selection, then Hoffman has shown they undermine their own credibility. The entire course of natural selection that gave rise to these scientists and the intellectuals behind Critical Race Theory has nothing to do with knowing reality as it is, including Blackness or Whiteness. Consequently, there is no reason to believe their sociological and scientific convictions are accurate. If we did not evolve to know reality as it is, then their science and philosophies are also irrelevant. They are birdbrained beliefs because none of us – if we take their Darwinian assumptions to their full conclusion -- did not evolve to perceive reality in the first place. Our sole purpose is to make babies and try to survive contently into old age.    Finally, contrary to DiAngelo, British journalist Melanie Phillips offers a clearer understanding for why we should not rely upon the pundits of anti-racial wokeness to save us from ourselves. Despite disagreeing with Phillips on many of her other socio-political positions, she correctly identifies the fundamental flaws being voiced by arrested development Wokeness across our campuses and within the Democrat party. First, it is unable to establish a hierarchy of values and morals. For example, if one refuses to say that any lifestyle or culture is better than another, then it cannot be said that liberalism is better than conservatism or any other ideology.  Consequently, faux Woke liberalism cannot legitimately defend the very principles upon which it defines itself: racial and gender equality, freedom of speech and religion, tolerance, and class struggle.  It contradicts its own principles and follows DiAngelo's footsteps to remove the dignity of the individual, which in the past was at the heart of authentic liberalism and once served as its moral backbone. What we are witnessing therefore in Woke liberalism – and in DiAngelo's and Kendi's reinvention of racism -- is “the strong dominating the weak,” and this is an ill-liberal ideology that is already showing signs of having catastrophic consequences in classrooms and the workplace.
