New Discourses Bullets, Ep. 70

"Diversity" and "Inclusion" don't mean what they sound like they mean. People are catching on to this all around the world, but we need to go deeper. It's necessary not just to know something is wrong with these ideas and their implementation but also to know how and why they're wrong. Ultimately, this means grasping the Left's Woke Marxist mindset, namely the idea of cultural hegemony. You see, "Diverse" means "outside of the culturally hegemonic viewpoint," and "Inclusion" means "including and protecting counter-hegemonic perspectives and the people who promote them." Understanding that the Left always thinks in terms of the evil spirits they call "systemic power" is necessary to understand all of their terms, especially these two for practical reasons. Join host James Lindsay for this episode of New Discourses Bullets where he explains it all.

AI Bias: The Digital Mean Girls Table
When AI plays favorites, who gets left out?
Ever asked an AI to show you what "success" looks like, only to get a sea of identical businessmen? You're not alone. In this eye-opening episode, we dive into the hidden world of AI bias and how these supposedly "neutral" systems are actually reflecting—and sometimes amplifying—our society's blind spots.
Join us as we explore:

The "Digital Mean Girls Table" - how AI systems give VIP treatment to some groups while relegating others to the sidelines
Real-world impacts, from AI hiring tools rejecting 30% more candidates from underrepresented groups to educational gaps widening by 15% for non-Western students
Simple tests you can run right now to detect bias in the AI tools you use daily
Practical strategies to "hack the system" and get more inclusive, balanced results

Discover why AI bias isn't just a technical glitch but a digital canary in the coal mine, pointing to deeper inequities in our world. Whether you're a casual AI user or a tech professional, this conversation will transform how you interact with the increasingly AI-shaped world around you.
"By learning to spot and correct these biases, we're not just improving AI – we're developing a superpower for identifying inequality in all its forms."

When AI Gets It Wrong: The Hidden Biases Shaping Your Digital World

This week, Chris and Jeremy are discussing how political conversations are often avoided within the church, but when they involve justice and morality they have a place in the church. It's important to be able to intentionally address what's going on in the world with your teenagers. This will help keep them from becoming numb to what marginalized communities are experiencing. Be sure to come prepared with suggestions and ways they can make a difference. One great resource for this is umcjustice.org.

Episode 189 - Power & Marginalization

Madame Psychosis is a female fronted, 5-piece alt rock and indie pop band from Toronto making smooth butter melt on the engine of a revved up high octane harley.

Pursuing the light of objective truth in subjective darkness.

Youth ministry is not a solo sport, but far too often youth workers feel like they have to do it alone. We are here to help with that. Every week some of the top United Methodist youth workers offer free resources from their real-world ministries. You’ll find everything from games to downloadable lessons to coaching on how to put together a budget.

We hope that when you get online to work, you don’t feel like you have to do it all yourself. We want to be the first place you turn for games, lessons, ideas, coaching, and personal devotions.
