The newer Florida Capitol skyscraper can be seen in the background towering behind the Old Capitol.

Politicians that deny and suppress science for their political or economic gain are not STUPID they are
IMMORAL!
Insist on science-based policy making.
VOTE Science in 2026 and 2028.
Nearby, two people are holding a navy banner that can be implied to read β€œFUCK TRUMP” with an American flag replacing the U and K.

I asked Wendy if I could read the paper she turned in, and when I opened the document, I was surprised to see the topic: critical pedagogy, the philosophy of education pioneered by Paulo Freire. The philosophy examines the influence of social and political forces on learning and classroom dynamics. Her opening line: β€œTo what extent is schooling hindering students’ cognitive ability to think critically?” Later, I asked Wendy if she recognized the irony in using AI to write not just a paper on critical pedagogy but one that argues learning is what β€œmakes us truly human.” She wasn’t sure what to make of the question. β€œI use AI a lot. Like, every day,” she said. β€œAnd I do believe it could take away that critical-thinking part. But it’s just β€” now that we rely on it, we can’t really imagine living without it.”
