Leaders please do better.

Heart & mind felt thanks! Thought provoking and a page turner. After chapter 1 I felt compelled to as AI ‘If we presume present actions, words, stated visions and promises can shed light on what an imagined future would look like. What would the utopian dream for a few powerful men and a union.
NEW BOOK!

Excellent news! Hopefully this is a start of a multi tiered approach that is required included changing the perception that houses are investments rather than homes.
How many men lead curriculum change in regard to gender or diversity related studies? Are equity concerns integrated seamlessly across the curriculum? How these and related concerns valued across faculties? Women doing the heavy lifting? See QED in bio for interventions and multi pronged approaches.
We all have a capacity to feel & cultivate compassion.The inability to feel remorse is an sign of uncultivated compassion. Will we see a remorseful person after their incarceration? Without active intervention no. See QED in bio information on interventions.

What if we posed a different question. What would it take for all boys and men to want and advocate for gender equality?
I hope this rally call to do better or at least do your job moves those who might previously been still or silent, those who within their zone of control, power and influence have the potential to make a difference.
You could take it as a compliment your as an ass only offers up one flavour but cooking can offer a multitude … others also might be heartened to read your comment as it could shed light on the focus of people on this platform?
Regulations in the EU are leading the way. AI is both a product & service - there are regulations that products & services sold to consumers must be safe. As consumers, how do we know that we are safe? Eisenstat’s insights sheds light on questions we need to ask.

Apart from providing work for fact checker and giving the public his nostalgic view in the way of policy proposals… nothing of substance to be seen in the new leader of the opposition.. maybe his wife?

Public officials should work for the people not themselves? Quick test Do they act compassionately, discourage unfair treatment of others, act with humility & appoint others not based on personal connections? If the answer is no to one or all - they are in it only for themselves =Unworthy of office.

Considering the difference in reactions through a moral lens. The reactions from most males express how they feel personally (discomfort) in contrast to the public distain articulated by prominent women. It is not only about justice but our understanding of righteousness. This needs to be resolved.
Why the silence? Any prominent men condemning doings of Epstein et al? Only one? Are there more? There seems to be a lot of “regret” or “distancing “ ie nypost.com/2026/01/31/u...
Notably different to ie Bloom www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle...

This history of think tanks’ pervasive influence on political thought is recommended for all with influence in the education of this & the next generation. What foundational story of a life well lived are we investing in? Who controls the narrative?

One of the reasons Rome fell was when their army was populated with mercenaries. Mercenaries don’t have a unifying ideology. ICE employees similar to mercenaries? There are approx 20k employees average wage $30k how much would you need to raise? How many to re-employ to disrupt & distract?
In medical education for >10 yrs, I found a reluctancy to recognise other forms of research, other than biomedical as important. I support computational approaches to help map this very important information but how it will be received and taught is worth considering.
