Putting Youth Back into the Future: Reclaiming Education and Hope in Dark Times
Bibliographic record
Abstract
In lieu of an abstract, here is a brief excerpt of this article: As someone who has recently relocated from the United States to Canada, I am deeply concerned that Canada not emulate the domestic and foreign policies that have been unleashed by the deeply reactionary presidency of George W. Bush. Many Canadians are distrustful, if not appalled, by “the public religiosity” of a right-wing regime in Washington, which appears not only “under the control of Christian jihadists confronting Islamist jihadists ,” but is also waging a war on any vestige of the public good, especially the social contract and the welfare state, two elements of Canadian society that are central to its commitment to social justice and democracy (Whitaker 5). Similarly, most Canadians refuse to endorse Bush’s failed war in Iraq, his ruinous economic policies, his fraudulent case for a missile defence system, or his “outsourcing of torture.” But, as skeptical and critically thoughtful as Canadians are of Bush’s foreign and domestic policies, I think Canadian academics, politicians, journalists, and other intellectuals should give more attention to the degree to which the Bush administration increasingly wages an assault against young people in the United States and, in doing so, loses all semblance of moral and political credibility.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
