Steven High, a historian of labour and de-industrialization, knows a thing or two. Here he offers his take on Lewis, contextualizing the positions he's taken in a very (very, very) brief potted history of the NDP and a reflection on the party as it stands at the moment. Worth a couple of minutes.

Avi Lewis will make the NDP think big again
The road ahead will not be an easy one for Lewis and the New Democrats. And while his vision may ultimately resonate more with the party’s urban progressives than its working-class base, it is exciting to think that the NDP might once again be the source of bold new ideas. Canadian politics will be better for it.

What a mind boggling and raw article by Wired: Steve Rosenbaum has a book out, "The Future of Truth", on the effect of AI chatbots on the understanding of truth. Rosenbaum has a master's degree in "truth" from New York University (what does that even mean?) and has decades of experience in this field: creating news programs for MTV and reporting on the aftermath of 9/11 in New York and much more.
But the New York Times reported that Rosenbaum's book is heavi…

We Asked the ‘Future of Truth’ Author to Explain How He Used AI. It Didn’t Go Well
A book about how AI shapes perceptions of reality came under fire for using AI-generated quotes. Its problems go beyond that.

Whittier HATED slavery...
So fallen! so lost! the light
Which once he wore!
The glory from his gray hairs gone
Forevermore!
...
Oh, dumb be passion’s stormy rage,
When he who might
Have lighted up and led his age,
Falls back in night.
—John Greenleaf Whittier, "Ichabod"
Whittier opposed slavery totally, though he wrote this about Daniel Webster, who at the end, decided to compromise with slavers, to preserve the nati…
