===== 1970s Backlash: Counter-Revenge in Plain Sight ===== | |||
[https://www.dailykos.com/stories/2025/7/11/2332815/-1970s-Backlash-Counter-Revenge-in-Plain-Sight?pm_campaign=front_page&pm_source=trending&pm_medium=web by KirkLC 11/7/25 DAILY KOS] | |||
The 1960s upended longstanding norms around race, gender, sexuality, war, and authority. Civil rights legislation, feminist demands, sexual freedom, environmental activism, youth rebellion, antiwar protests, and increased government programs for the marginalized challenged traditional hierarchies. While these movements energized progressives and the marginalized, they also unsettled millions of Americans who felt left behind or disoriented. For them, the 1960s were not an era of liberation, but one of moral collapse, lawlessness, and cultural decline. | |||
===== Scientific norms shape the behavior of researchers working for the greater good ===== | |||
[https://theconversation.com/scientific-norms-shape-the-behavior-of-researchers-working-for-the-greater-good-255159 by Jeffrey A. Lee 8/7/25 THE CONVERSATION] | |||
The point of these norms is that scientists should behave in ways that improve the collective advancement of knowledge. If you’re a cynic, you might be rolling your eyes at such a Pollyannaish ideal. But corny expectations keep the world functioning. Think: Be kind, clean up your mess, return the shopping cart to the cart corral. | |||
===== Neuroscientists link low self-awareness to stronger brain reactions to moralized issues ===== | |||

A new study published in the journal Cognitive, Affective, & Behavioral Neuroscience reveals that people who hold strong moral convictions about political issues make decisions more quickly—but that these choices are shaped by both emotional brain responses and metacognitive ability. The research shows that moral conviction activates specific brain regions involved in emotion and cognitive control, and that people with lower self-awareness about their own decision accuracy show stronger brain responses to morally charged political issues. | |||
===== US businessman is wannabe ‘warlord’ of secretive far-right men’s network ===== | |||
[https://www.theguardian.com/world/2023/aug/22/charles-haywood-claremont-institute-sacr-far-right by Jason Wilson 22/8/23 The Guardian] | |||
The founder and sponsor of a far-right network of secretive, men-only, invitation-only fraternal lodges in the US is a former industrialist who has frequently speculated about his future as a warlord after the collapse of America, a Guardian investigation has found. | |||
===== Israeli plan for forced transfer of Gaza’s population ‘a blueprint for crimes against humanity’ ===== | |||

Palestinians would go through “security screening” before entering, and once inside would not be allowed to leave, Katz said at a briefing for Israeli journalists. | |||

===== Trends in Genetics ===== | |||
[https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0168952525001295 by Rosa S. Gisladottir 18/6/25 Science Direct] | |||
The last decade has seen an explosion in genome-wide association studies (GWAS) on almost any imaginable phenotype. Unfortunately, humanity’s most distinctive trait – communication, broadly construed – has been underserved. In this forum article I review recent advances and promising avenues that may help us understand the genetics and evolution of human communication. | |||
