Not to start up Discourse™, and this is a not-fully-formed thought/solution, but this is why I'd support some form of credit system to prevent people from free-loading. If you don't want to review (or not for free), that's fine—but you don't get to benefit from others doing the same for your papers.

The tax part is key. This should be seen as an *obligation* they are fulfilling, rather than a gift they are graciously bestowing. Especially when they can just as easily decide to redirect their "philanthropy" based on their personal whims.

Things have gone way off the rails if we’re relying on service members’ duty to refuse unlawful orders (assuming they’d still be considered unlawful, given the SCOTUS decision). And all it takes is one guy to decide to obey.

Exactly this. It’s the common “law and order” and “protest as disruption” framing that leads people to not make that distinction. Heavy dose of system justification too. Police wouldn’t respond so aggressively without a reason, right? Right?

Aggressive police response to protests shapes perceptions that protests are violent…which is then used to justify more aggressive police response to protests.
Will have to fit this into my #CMN396 Media and Crime course for this fall.

Interesting report. But how do survey respondents interpret questions about how much political content they see/share on social media when "political"/"politics" can mean many different things to different people? Need to consider when including those words may produce unacknowledged variation.

Rules barring "political" speech are so ripe for exploitation because the political can encompass potentially all of social life. I cover this in my recent paper and will be presenting work on online political content moderation at @apsa.bsky.social #APSA2024.

"Instagram said this year that it would not recommend 'political content' unless users opted into seeing it. Abortion advocacy groups haven't received clarity on whether the topic is deemed political, and Meta declined to specify." This is weaponization of political ontology.

And this is the funny thing about people who say this type of racism would never happen because "all money is green." Racist people will absolutely go against their best material interest, because to them, upholding white supremacy is worth more than the money.

A thousand times this. The “hush money” is only a felony because it was part of a fraudulent conspiracy— in this case, to influence the 2016 election. THIS should be the dominant frame, but it’s not been thus far, even after the verdict.

Will have to add this to the Talking Crime Online day of my Media and Crime course. I wonder how much of that engagement is users replying "Scary!" to situations that decidedly aren't, or users challenging potential instances of racial profiling—for which Nextdoor is infamous.

Reminds me of the controversy over media violence and real-world violence/aggression. Researchers making either overblown claims or outright dismissals, and policymakers/pundits who know less doing the same. Meanwhile, like almost all media effects, the answer is "Yes, sometimes, for some users."

This has me thinking about Mettler’s The Submerged State, @emilythorson.bsky.social’s The Invented State, and whether people even think they are participating in politics or interfacing with govt. Also work by Weaver & others about the forms of govt different people interact with (e.g., police).

It was super important for me, since I was the first PhD in my family and my grandparents literally weren’t allowed to go to college. Got it in April 2020 and didn’t wear it til walking two years later. As for price, capgown.com has premium sets for under $500. Worth it to me.

We did this study of changing representation of Middle Easterners in fictional broadcast TV programming, finding them virtually absent pre-9/11 and more present—half the time as terrorists—after 9/11. But again, can't separate attitude effects of the media representation from 9/11 as an event.

This article, which is on my class syllabus, likewise makes the argument that changes in racial misrepresentation re: crime between pre- vs. post-9/11 periods are factors both of 9/11 as an event and of changing media tech.

Could be part of it. Also the proliferation of cable news. CNN had been around for 20 years by 9/11, but MSNBC and Fox News were only like five years old. They all exploded post-9/11, so the media angle (which I'm drawn to due to my line of work) is entangled with the real-world events angle.

Thank you for this. I teach a course on media and crime, and we start off by talking about how people think crime is increasing when it’s not. This shows that that perception-reality gap wasn’t always necessarily there…but yeah, no clear answer on why. Might be too into the weeds for my class tho.
