Day 13 🗡️✍️🗳️

“In Australia, in a #democracy, you make your #arguments with #words, not #weapons,” he told Sunrise.

“If people want to come up to us and have a chat, they can.”

“If they don’t like us, then they might mumble something under their breath or cross the road – you never want to see the sorts of threats of #physical #violence happen, like we’ve seen #overseas.” — Member for #Blaxland

Does Australia and Australians need violence for political change? NO, thats why we vote.

Both major Political parties have “Pay to meet the Politician” programs for the largest bidders, so saying the public can chat to any Politician, especially serving members is unrealistic & patronising.

6.6: Emotional Literacy with Dr Tiffany Millacci

In this week’s episode, Ariel quizzes guest Dr Tiffany Millacci about emotional literacy. What is this relatively new phrase? How can being emotionally literate help us to navigate difficult conversations, awkward interactions, or even generally just having relationships in the first place? Isn’t all this talk of emotions just a different way for the self-help industry to get us to buy stuff?

Join us for a fascinating conversation about a complex topic - we barely skim the surface! But never fear, Dr Millacci has your back; listen in for some good places to start learning more.

Check out our blog for links!

Disclaimer: We’re coming from a white, western viewpoint and we recognize the limitations and strictures of that - even within the same cultures and societies (heck, within the same families) emotional expression can vary wildly according to personality, gender, neurodivergence, whatever your social location. This interview necessarily takes broad strokes to begin a conversation about how to better be in community with each other, and it is our hope that we can continue to showcase how this can vary, taking steps towards a solarpunk future where people can disagree - even on important topics like politics and religion - without violence or relationship rupture.

#Wisconsin #HighCourt to hear #arguments on whether an 1849 #abortion #ban remains #valid.

#Abortionrights #advocates are optimistic, as #liberal #justices control the #court, with one openly supporting #abortionrights on the #campaign #trail. Monday's arguments are largely a #formality, with a #ruling expected in weeks.

More evidence that #socialMedia #polarization may not be amplified by #algorithms?

"Exposure to like-minded #arguments [increased] #politicalPolarization [more] than exposure to opposing arguments. Algorithmically curation did not amplify these effects...." (N > 800 Germans across three waves)

Would you expect *more* or *less* polarization if — as in real reality — *people* controlled their argument exposure?

Le "#Figaro Magazine" flingue Radio France : un numéro #fiasco - Par Alizée Vincent | Arrêt sur images

arretsurimages.net/articles/le

> Dans son dernier numéro, le "Figaro Magazine" accuse l'audiovisuel public de marginaliser la droite et de surexposer la gauche, sur les #fondements d'une étude à la méthodologie plus que discutée. L'hebdo a publié la #réponse de Radio France. Mais ce, sans indiquer qu'un quart des #arguments de la #maison ronde a été coupé.
