Parliamo di slacktivism, cioè di quell'”attivismo pigro” tipico dei social.

Welcome to The Nonlinear Library, where we use Text-to-Speech software to convert the best writing from the Rationalist and EA communities into audio. This is: Anti-'FOOM' (stop trying to make your cute pet name the thing), published by david reinstein on April 14, 2023 on The Effective Altruism Forum. Notes/basis: This is kind of a short-form post in style but I think it's important enough to put here. Obviously let me know if someone else said this better Summary Formal overly-intellectual academese is bad. But using your 'cute' inside joke name for things is potentially worse. It makes people cringe, sounds like you are trying to take ownership of something, and excludes people. Use a name that is approachable but serious. The problem. Where did the term 'FOOM' come from, to refer to AGI risk? I asked GPT4: [!ai] AI The term 'foom' was coined by artificial intelligence researcher and author Eliezer Yudkowsky in his 2008 book titled "The Sequences". Yudkowsky used the term to refer to a hypothetical scenario where an artificial general intelligence (AGI) rapidly and exponentially improves its own intelligence, leading to an uncontrollable and potentially catastrophic outcome for humanity. The term 'foom' is a play on the word 'boom', representing the sudden and explosive nature of AGI development in this scenario. Another example: 'AI-not-kill-everyone-ism' Analogies to fairly successful movements: Global warming was not called ''Roast", and the movement was not called "anti-everyone-burns-up-ism" Nuclear holocaust was not called "mega-boom" Anti-slavery was not called ... (OK I won't touch this one) How well has the use of cute names worked in the past? I can't think of any examples where they have caught on in a positive way. The closest I can think of are "Nudge" (by Richard Thaler?) ... to describe choice-architecture interventions; - My impression is that the term 'nudge' got people to remember it but made it rather easy to dismiss others in that space have come up with names that caught on less well I think (like "sludge"), which also induce a bit of cringe "Woke" I think this example basically speaks for itself. Tea-Party movement This goes in the opposite direction perhaps (fairly successful), but I still think it's not quite as cringeworthy as FOOM. The term 'tea party' obviously has a long history in our culture, especially the "Boston Tea Party. What else? I asked GPT4 when have social movements used cute 'inside joke' names to refer to the threats faced? The suggestions are not half as cute or in-jokey as FOOM: Net Neutrality, The Umbrella Movement, Extinction Rebellion (XR), Occupy Wall Street (OWS) I asked it to get cuter... [1] Prodding it further... Climategate, Frankenfoods, Slacktivism ... also not so inside-jokey nor as cringeworthy IMO. Prodding it for more cutesy more inside-jokey yields a few terms that barely caught on, or didn't characterize the movement or the threat as a whole.[2] Thanks for listening.

Has activism become the accepted norm? What role has social media played in this? Should we have always practised activism but, instead, been blindly accepting when we should have been challenging? Does the forceful response of the few to someone's views potentially lead to a cancel culture?   It's important that, when we think about the world of communication in business and the polarisation of society, we talk about how aggressive conversations can feel. We often discuss alignment when working with leaders and different teams: the worry is that this is becoming increasingly difficult.   To illustrate, we cite recent controversial topics. We also look at the rise in slacktivism: Defined by the United Nations as when people “support a cause by performing simple measures” but “are not truly engaged or devoted to making a change”.   Resources: Podcast S4 E8: How thinking Differently can create belonging https://calmedgedrebels.com/how-thinking-differently-can-create-belonging/ Blog:  Seek a second opinion https://calmedgedrebels.com/seek-a-second-opinion/ Slacktivism: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slacktivism Podcast S4 E11: Living and sticking to your values https://calmedgedrebels.com/living-and-sticking-to-your-values/ Matthew Syed article The Times: In a land with 14 tribes named in its anthem, we were played like a violin https://www.thetimes.co.uk/article/in-a-land-with-14-tribes-named-in-its-anthem-we-were-played-like-a-violin-z9zqz3n0s Unleash your inner rebel conference https://www.innerrebelconference.com/ Poles Apart by Laura Osborne, Alison Goldsworthy and Alexandra Chesterfield:   https://www.penguin.co.uk/books/111/1119814/poles-apart/9781847942975.html  

Around a decade ago, one of the first “viral” moments of the social media age took place. This involved American men launching a campaign to make Joseph Kony the most famous man in the world. Kony, the leader of the Lord's Resistance Army (LRA) (which had existed for decades prior), had been indicted for war crimes and crimes against humanity. But was this a case of activism, slacktivism, or white saviourism on a global scale? Follow us on IG: itsacontinentpod and Twitter: itsacontinent.

Gaming companies are reacting to the invasion of Ukraine, and their responses help tell us a lot about what feels genuine and what feels lazy (or, at best, well-intentioned but useless). What do we actually want from these companies when major current events have the world's attention?

Journalists got a tour this week of a detention facility in Texas housing migrants — the first time the media have gotten access to one since Biden took office. They reported that 4,000 people, including children, were packed into a space designed for only 250. Companies like Coca-Cola and Delta finally spoke out about Georgia’s new voter suppression law. We discuss the statements, whether they came too late, and what businesses can do now to step up from here. And in headlines: Witnesses in the Derek Chauvin trial express guilt and helplessness, France imposes a third national lockdown, and New York State legalizes recreational weed.

In this episode, CYC is joined by Justin R. Hawkins, a PhD candidate at Yale University who is specializing in the fields of political theory and Christian ethics. To begin, high school students talk about how they and their peers tend to view and experience politics, and how they often go about engaging in that narrower view of politics, typically through social media. Justin then offers a more expansive approach to politics, including better modes of political engagement. For Christians, political activism is not 'slacktivism,' it is neighborly love. Moreover, politics is not the be-all end-all, but is rather an earthly means by which we may come to better enjoy God and love others.

Due to a recent reinvigoration of social activism for a variety of reasons, notably Black Lives Matter, many people have taken to social media to vocalize their support for different causes as a way to stand in solidarity.
