@Iam_Curtis Fast inte ”på Twitter”, känner jag. Jag har jättemånga diskussioner på Twitter utan påhopp och onödiga konfrontationer. Det här är för mig hur jag kan se ”moderna” politiker prata oavsett kanal.

@Iam_Curtis Men jag kan nog köpa att våra sätt att kommunicera över Internet har bidragit till polariseringen som sedan smittar av sig i vardaglig diskurs.

@HareemMannan @amcasari @dqpdang @anildash @nickf This made me think of 25 years ago when I tipped off the news anonymously about hazing at my boarding school. The situation hit the news, 3 students were expelled, but leadership stayed put (although of course they knew what was going on). 🙁

@HareemMannan @amcasari @dqpdang @anildash @nickf Hazing is a bad word (what some call initiation ceremonies or bastardisation). It’s really systemic harassment and abuse.

@dqpdang @anildash @HareemMannan @amcasari @nickf I believe @amcasari outlined a good approach here, stressing the importance of not doing it alone. I encourage teams to have discussions around ”What in our organization is preventing us from making ethical choices?” which doesn’t have to be confrontational.

@dqpdang @anildash @HareemMannan @amcasari @nickf Then I agree that impact assessments (a form of risk analysis) should be a regular activity in development work. And finally, to feel empowered to speak up, engage in pre-scripting (as advocated by Mary Gentile in Giving Voice to Values):

@dqpdang @anildash @HareemMannan @amcasari @nickf This involves practicing speaking up before the confrontation happens. Something that is certainly easier when you have your allies and your team on the same page (hopefully achieved during impact assessment).

@dqpdang @anildash @HareemMannan @amcasari @nickf Of course, much of this is hard without real self-awareness; who am I, what do I want to stand for and do my actions align with my values. It also doesn’t solve when we don’t see the harm coming although...

@dqpdang @anildash @HareemMannan @amcasari @nickf ...I’m certain we can do a better job of anticipating that harm will happen, maybe just not what.

@dqpdang @anildash @HareemMannan @amcasari @nickf Reading Anil’s original question, ”that you thought MIGHT cause harm”, the first step would certainly be the impact assessment - to help understand how others think around the same issue.
