Remember when Barbie didn't end with Will Farrells head in the guillotine?
Do I need more pixels? Or am I just missing Elon's planes, the oil companies, the Koch family planes, the military industrial complex, the car industry,

I think the idea is that in order for private companies to take the money, some of it has to go to HBCU as research contracts. Biden can't just decided to tell a school to research some niche chip topic. The researchers leading the project have to hit a wall, and work with universities to research and solve it...
Yeah the article could explain way better. The big money for schools these days, besides grant money, is private partnerships. That's what I think is going on here.
Yeah I agree that there is a TAKE vs a SHARE.
Some of the reason cultural appropriation is a bad thing is due to capitalism. Taking something, even symbolically, for profit, is different than learning, experiencing and sharing.
OK, so what does what happens in one person's family have to do with all children?
Again you might teach your kids to walk safely on the sidewalk, but if something changes and ten of thousands of kids just start walking off the sidewalk..... Wouldn't that be an issue worth considering?

I'm not comparing it to smoking.
If someone's response to "social media is bad for kids", then to me "I keep my kids away from it, easy peasy" is not a response that invalidates the original argument. It actually supports the idea: social media is dangerous, therefore I intervene as a parent.
Yes I'm being a little lazy, but I'm not a research scientist. Gooogling some thing like "mental illness social media" is pretty easy. There's lots of studies finding at least a little corelation.
I'm not shocked your linked study says that there is very little evidence of social media causing mental health issues. I wouldn't even be shocked if it's true.
It still doesn't mean that good parenting and social media access go hand in hand.

These are some broad brush strokes, dude.
I agree that modern and western atheism is sort of a dialectal to western religion and so perpetually tied to it in a way, that westerners don't often see.
I agree that atheism as commonly portrayed online (actively and by its detractors alike) is militantly against Islam, all religions, etc.
But lots of atheists are actually humanists and not militantly out to root out all religion entirely.
Inside the US we are plagued by a religious fascism that yes, sadly, colors a looot of the online conversation about faith and atheism.
Atheists are not generally for eradicating all religions on the planet.
