He shared that everyone deserves to be treated with kindness, but he spoke in opposition to Ordinance No. 6093. He stated he is concerned with public accommodations when it comes to bathroom use. City Council Agenda Packet - August 12, 2019 4 of 119 Joshua Decker, Fairbanks – Mr. Decker stated he is the Executive Director of the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) of Alaska and spoke in favor of the ordinance passing without amendments. He stated gay and transgender people should not be discriminated against because of who they love. He stated the ordinance will not curtail freedom of religion, and the ACLU would not support something that would prohibit one’s right to worship and pray the way they choose. He spoke to the history of his organization fighting all people’s freedoms. Annie Dougherty, 2216 Penrose Lane, Fairbanks – Ms. Dougherty spoke against Ordinance No. 6093 and stated it discriminates against the majority of people in Fairbanks. She stated the ordinance is being pushed by a radical activist party in order to pass sexual orientation and gender identity legislation, and she referred to it as bully politics. She stated the ordinance is not a human rights law; it gives privileges to certain people. She spoke to the reasons why she does not support the ordinance. Claire Granger, 837 Amanita Road, Fairbanks – Ms. Granger stated she is a senior at Lathrop High School, and she came to speak in support of Ordinance No. 6093. She stated laws do not protect the LGBTQ community, and the ordinance needs to pass so everyone can enjoy liberties. Rev. Tandi Rogers, 523 N.J. Street, Tacoma, Washington – Rev. Rogers stated she is in town from Tacoma, Washington. She stated that when her city passed its equal rights legislation, a wave of collaboration and creativity occurred in her community. She stated the ordinance passed in her community in the early 2000s, and it improved the quality of life for everyone. Luke Szklarz, 2145-C Polar Wind Court, Eielson Air Force Base – Mr. Szklarz stated he moved to Alaska from Texas and that he planned to raise his family in Fairbanks. He stated, however, that the language in the ordinance gives him pause. He stated the ordinance discriminates against religious people, and he shared that he spoke to several ladies who will start to shop online if they have to share public restrooms with unsafe people. Amy Faye Proctor, 2572 Carrie Lynn Drive, Fairbanks – Ms. Proctor stated she has lived in Fairbanks for 14 years and that there is no reason for the ordinance. She stated Phoenix and Sacramento have passed similar ordinances, and there has been no change other than separation in those communities. Emily Marie Fleagle, 3413 White Spruce Drive, North Pole – Ms. Fleagle asked the Council not to pass the ordinance; she stated she does not want to share a restroom with a man. She stated she was concerned that a man using the same restroom may take advantage of her vulnerability. Elizabeth Holm, 2454 San Augustin Drive, North Pole – Ms. Holm stated the ordinance discriminates against people because it forces businesses to hire people based on gender identity. She stated there is not a problem with transgender discrimination in the community, and if someone feels discriminated against they should call 9-1-1 like everyone else. Ms. Holm cried and stated she had to tell her daughter that the Fairbanks City Council is going to allow men in the bathroom. She stated the Council is removing her right as a mother to protect her child from harm. She stated the Council is proposing allowing perverts to use a young girl’s bathroom. City of Fairbanks NOT A VERBATIM TRANSCRIPT February 25, 2019 Regular Meeting Minutes Page 2 of 20 City Council Agenda Packet - August 12, 2019 5 of 119 Caleb Szklarz, 1506 Davison Street, North Pole – Mr. Szklarz stated he is not comfortable publicly speaking, but the issue is so important that he needs to speak. He relayed a story of a young girl being assaulted in the restroom as a result of a school’s transgender bathroom policy. He asked the Council to vote no on Ordinance No. 6093 because it is dangerous for women and children. Ms. Szklarz stated he has spoken to women who said they will start shopping online instead of in local stores if the Council passes the ordinance.

  • Passionate Worship — Loving God in Return Adam Hamilton Shares Advice on Worship Annual Conference Votes on Reducing Number of Districts Horse Walks Into a Bar
    JULY 2014 Passionate Worship — Loving God in Return Adam Hamilton shares advice on worship Annual Conference votes on reducing number of districts horse walks into a bar. The bartender asks, “Why the long face?” I walk into Annual Conference. A pastor asks, “Why the long hair?” I reply, “I’m growing my hair long to appear more relevant to a younger, more diverse population. It’s my own version of being edgy. I like to call it Fredgy. And when I decide it’s not working, it will be a lot easier to get rid of than a tattoo.” A Actually, my hair does have a story behind it. I usually get a haircut right before Annual Conference, so the people who only see me once a year have the illusion that I’m attentive to my personal grooming year round. But last year, two weeks Fred Koenig, Editor before Annual Conference, I got a cancer diagnosis. My oncologist told me that the Missouri Conference chemotherapy might cause all my hair to fall out, but it would probably take a few Publications weeks. Well, I wasn’t about to waste $7 on a haircut if my hair was going to fall out anyway, so I decided to wait and see. Published by The Missouri Those few weeks came and went with no hair loss, at least no more than I’ve been Conference of the United Methodist Church experiencing in the past few years anyway. But my next MRI scan was scheduled for 3601 Amron Court August 7. The results of that scan would determine if I needed more chemotherapy.

  • From Alt Right to Alt Lite: Naming the Hate
    From Alt Right to Alt Lite: Naming the Hate Reuters In just one year, the alt right has gone from relative obscurity to being one of the United States' most visible extremist movements. This stratospheric rise is due in large part to the rhetoric employed during the 2016 presidential campaign, which granted implicit approval to the once-taboo hallmarks of the far right – overt racism, anti-Semitism, xenophobia, misogyny, and anti-Muslim bigotry. The alt right capitalized on the moment by amplifying those messages while loudly rejecting mainstream conservatism and its followers (often referred to as “cucks”). You can’t discuss the alt right without mentioning the “alt lite,” a loosely connected movement of right-wing activists who reject the overtly white 1 / 34 supremacist ideology of the alt right, but whose hateful impact is more significant than their “lite” name suggests. The alt lite embraces misogyny and xenophobia, and abhors “political correctness” and the left. While the alt right has been around for years, the current iteration is still figuring out what it is – and isn’t. And it’s early days for the alt lite, which means both movements’ ideologies are still somewhat fluid, as are the lines that separate them. Numerous examples in our list of “Who’s Who” demonstrate that “membership” in the alt lite does not preclude working with people on the alt right (and vice versa). What is the Alt Right?

  • Post-Digital Cultures of the Far Right
    Parallel Ports Sociotechnical Change from the Alt-Right to Alt-Tech Joan Donovan, Becca Lewis and Brian Friedberg Before the insurgence of the so-called ‘Alt-Right’ into contemporary politi- cal discussion, white supremacists have long used the internet as a means to organize and share information.1 Early adopters of email and bulletin board technology – organizations such as the Aryan Nation and the Ku Klux Klan – saw great possibilities for using networked communication technology to circumvent social, physical and legal restrictions on the ex- pression of racism and antisemitism. Sites like Aryan Liberty Net (1984) and Stormfront (1995) provided early platforms for the sharing of racist propaganda, novel means of organization and recruitment, and new tools to harass and intimidate vulnerable populations (Berlet 2008).2 The in- creasing ubiquity of online communication has allowed white suprema- cist groups to grow and transform, preserving the movement’s knowledge and tactics for decades. More than a tool for communication, social media platforms are in- creasingly condemned for supporting the organization of a broad base of white supremacists. One key event, The Unite the Right Rally, held on August 2017 in Charlottesville, North Carolina, was organized by a broad coalition of white supremacists, many of whom were highly active online. This violent gathering led to the death of Heather Heyer and the injury of dozens of others. Much of the subsequent criticism lodged against social 1 | According to the Associated Press Style Guide, references to the “Alt-Right” should always be in quotes.

  • Pepe the Frog's Creator Obtains Monetary Settlement
    Pepe the Frog’s Creator Obtains Monetary Settlement from Infowars June 10, 2019 Alex Jones’s Infowars media outlet has agreed to pay artist Matt Furie to settle a copyright infringement lawsuit over Infowars’s unauthorized sale of a poster featuring Furie’s iconic “Pepe the Frog” character. Infowars made approximately $14,000 selling the poster, and has agreed to pay all of those profits and more to Furie, for a total settlement of $15,000. Since 2017, Furie, under the representation of WilmerHale, has aggressively enforced his intellectual property rights, using legal action where necessary, to end the misappropriation of Pepe the Frog by the “alt-right.” He successfully stopped use of Pepe by Richard Spencer’s AltRight.com, Arktos Media, Baked Alaska, the r/The_Donald Reddit forum, and neo-Nazi website The Daily Stormer, among others. In early 2018, Furie sued Infowars for copyright infringement. Infowars’s online store was selling a poster featuring Pepe alongside Alex Jones, President Donald Trump and other figures. Infowars eventually stopped selling the poster but refused to pay Furie for its infringement, vowing instead to fight the lawsuit on the grounds of free speech and “fair use,” claiming that Pepe’s fame as an internet meme made it free to use for anyone. In May 2019, a federal judge in Los Angeles, where the lawsuit was pending, rejected Infowars’s motion for judgment on its “fair use” defense, and set the case for trial in July. Furie expected to ask the jury to force Infowars to turn over all of its profits from its sale of the poster—roughly $14,000.

  • Towards Understanding the Information Ecosystem Through the Lens of Multiple Web Communities Arxiv:1911.10517V1 [Cs.SI] 24
    Towards Understanding the Information Ecosystem Through the Lens of Multiple Web Communities Savvas Zannettou A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy of Cyprus University of Technology. arXiv:1911.10517v1 [cs.SI] 24 Nov 2019 Department of Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering and Informatics Cyprus University of Technology November 26, 2019 Abstract The Web consists of numerous Web communities, news sources, and services, which are often ex- ploited by various entities for the dissemination of false or otherwise malevolent information. Yet, we lack tools and techniques to effectively track the propagation of information across the multiple diverse communities, and to capture and model the interplay and influence between them. Further- more, we lack a basic understanding of what the role and impact of some emerging communities and services on the Web information ecosystem are, and how such communities are exploited by bad actors (e.g., state-sponsored trolls) that spread false and weaponized information. In this thesis, we shed some light on the complexity and diversity of the information ecosystem on the Web by presenting a typology that includes the various types of false information, the involved actors as well as their possible motives. Then, we follow a data-driven cross-platform quantitative approach to analyze billions of posts from Twitter, Reddit, 4chan’s Politically Incorrect board (/pol/), and Gab, to shed light on: 1) how news and image-based memes travel from one Web community to another and how we can model and quantify the influence between the various Web communities; 2) characterizing the role of emerging Web communities and services on the information ecosystem, by studying Gab and two popular Web archiving services, namely the Wayback Machine and archive.is; and 3) how popular Web communities are exploited by state-sponsored actors for the purpose of spreading disinformation and sowing public discord.
