Beschreibung

On the rise of antisemitism in American public life There is something almost mathematically precise about the persistence of antisemitism: every civilization that has indulged it has sooner or later found itself diminished, barbarized, or destroyed.  One might have supposed this lesson — written in the ash of a continent — would have been sufficient instruction for the ages.  One would, of course, be wrong.

Episode The Great Tumbler Uprising Cover

The Great Tumbler Uprising

Civilization has reached that magical stage where a coffee mug can overthrow a corporate executive before lunch. This week in South Korea, the head of Starbucks Korea was fired over a promotional campaign featuring insulated drink tumblers and the catastrophic misuse of the word “tank.” Somewhere in Seattle, a room full of marketing executives is now hiding under ergonomic desks whispering, “Dear God, check every adjective.” The campaign, innocently — or catastrophically, depending on your blood pressure — was called “Tank Day.”  Which, in most nations, sounds like either a clearance sale at Home Depot or a forgotten Steven Seagal movie.  But in South Korea, it collided headfirst with the memory of the 1980 Gwangju massacre, when military tanks were used to crush pro-democracy protests. Then came another phrase: “Thump it on the desk.”

Hydroplaning Into the Future

Waymo’s driverless cars can map fog, detect rain, and identify flooded roads — before driving straight into them, all while Silicon Valley congratulates itself for eliminating the last remaining human beings from daily life. Let's just start with the facts, shall we?  Because the facts — bless their stupid, beautiful hearts — require absolutely zero embellishment. On April 20th, a Waymo robotaxi drove into a flooded road in San Antonio, Texas, at forty miles per hour.  The vehicle "detected flooding."  And continued.  At forty miles per hour.  Into the flood.  Now, I want you to find the dumbest cab driver in America — find him, the guy who once drove the wrong way on a one-way street while eating a burrito and arguing with his ex-wife — and I promise you, that man would not have driven into a flood at forty miles per hour.
