Have you seen "The Stability of Immigration Attitudes: Evidence and Implications" by Kustov, Laaker, and Reller (2021)?

Abs reads:"Do voters have stable immigration views? While any account of immigration politics must make an assumption about whether underlying attitudes are stable, the literature has been ambiguous regarding the issue. To remedy this omission, we provide the first comprehensive assessment of the stability and change of immigration attitudes. Theoretically, we develop a framework to explicate the temporal assumptions in previous research and find that most studies assume attitudes are flexible. Empirically, we draw on nine panel data sets to test the stability question and use multiple approaches to account for measurement error. We find that immigration attitudes are remarkably stable over time and robust to major economic and political shocks. Overall, these findings provide more support for theories emphasizing socialization and stable predispositions rather than information or environmental factors. Consequently, scholars should exercise caution in using changing context to explain immigration attitudes or in using immigration attitudes to explain political change."

This one seems like a good one to end the whole thread on, or else to pivot into being a research methods thread :)

I remember having seen a similar story a while ago, and since this is from 2022 this is hopefully simply the same thing showing up again (meaning things could have improved since).

word is in, the official line is "they didn't order a crease fire, everything is fine"

(Israel called the UN anti-semitic or something, I didn't read their statement closely)

@telescoper
no, follow the instructions as usual, but use the oven of the upstairs neighbors.

Well, they had to rule it was _plausible_ that a genocide is taking place because South Africa brought the case under the genocide convention.

If the court didn't find it plausible that a genocide was ongoing they probably wouldn't have ordered Israel to do anything at all.

There's another buried story here about the ICC prosecutor just completely failing to take any actions, which is why it is South Africa being the country bringing the complaint to this court.

låt AI läsa åt dig och animera en avatar så kan du bli vtuber, lite lägre tröskel för det?

Mainly I think it is that it took like an hour for the pdf to appear on the ICJ website, and it was struggling hour at that.

Maybe the newsrooms that didn't race to put something out as soon as the reading started will have links from the start?

@pettter
i think the line is "the ICJ did not order a cease fire, what can we do?"

@kevinrothrock
Is that feed on an entirely different screen in your... extensive social media setup, or can it sit next to the others without causing cancer?

@elizabethtasker
With that sort of trickster mascot it seems entirely expected that SLIM would land on its head, just look at them!

I'm trying to imagine that character carefully doing any delicate tasks, but it always ends with some zany disaster ;)

No, I asked a question and you didn't answer it, why would you say I was claiming something?

When I asked for the "particular bit of it" I mean of the actual text, not a piece of folklore.

@pixelpusher220
How? What particular bit of it specifically has opinions on how you load your transport vehicles?
