They’re in favor of a free press, except if that press isn’t in support of their political agenda. Then all of a sudden that free press isn’t supposed to be so free.
If the freedom you want has a required political position, it’s not freedom that you want.
Just like how they only use “free speech” to defend the indefensible things they say. Because they can’t actually justify the things they say, so they fall back to “well you technically can’t stop me from saying it.” The “free speech” defense is just about the lowest bar you could find, and if you’re using it you should seriously examine why you’re saying the things you are. Because if you’ve fallen into the “free speech” defense, it means you have no other defense.
Think about it. If he gets in, he’s GOING to be dictator. He has the support to order anyone that doesn’t agree with him to be killed. Everyone knows he’s a fucking a moron and they used him to fatten their bank accounts. Now, some that still believe in democracy are afraid they’ll end up dead. Time to support democracy.
VOTE!! Volunteer to give rides to those that couldn’t vote without it.
It’s great to finally see this happen but we should all be wary of “good” political news. The headline only says “dozens” of republicans after all. A trolling brigade tactic is to get people thinking “Harris is going to win by such a landslide I don’t even have to vote”
In all studies, we made certain that the participants and the people in the images were from the same nationality, since cultural familiarity is critical for the face–name matching effect to occur.
Additionally, this survey was conducted by Israelis, and since it says it was translated into English in the paper, I assume it was conducted in Hebrew. They say “socioeconomic cues such as age and ethnicity are experimentally controlled”, but I don’t see that they explain how. My suspicion is that the results are affected by non-facial cues like clothing, hairstyle, facial hair, and indeed age. For example, if I showed you a picture of an old woman and asked if her name was Doris, Helen, Megan, or Kayley, which do you think it is? If I showed you a picture of a guy with short dark hair, possibly graying, beard stubble, and a collared denim shirt, is his name Edgar, Clarence, Emil, or James?
Further, since they did some kind of control over the prompts, I have to assume they presented faces and names the respondents would be familiar with, meaning this does not necessarily hold outside of Israel and Israelis (and I assume mostly people ethnically Israeli Jewish). This reinforces my belief that their methodology is flawed, and while people might look like their names, their faces themselves do not change to fit, rather there’s a correlation with other factors like age (i.e. name popularity over time), grooming style, and so on.
I’m not bothering to open the study again, but from what I remember, the strong cropping was for the AI analysis. For the people, they cropped like in the example.
Oh, yeah, you’re right. Not cropped. I read that wrong:
Across the human social perceivers’ studies (Studies 1, 2, and 4A), the facial appearance of the targets in the images consisted of headshots cropped around shoulder height, and included facial accessories such as individuals’ hair, eyeglasses, and any subtle cosmetics they wore. To ensure that the hair is included in the image, facial images were cropped around shoulder height, occasionally including the top of the shirt in the frame, as depicted in Fig. 1. We did not include images of individuals wearing stereotypically recognizable accessories such as religious items.
So, sometimes articles of clothing and certainly makeup were present.
