I think we should throw some kind of celebration when it hits $100.

Hot tip! When someone says a lawful, harmless action "should be illegal", they are telling you what they wish they could do, but can't. Treat it like a big blinking quest marker ❗️

This new video essay by @adamconover.net is a rallying cry for what we need to be doing going forward, with examples of it already working (after a 10 minute summary of the fire hose of events leading up to now — I've timestamped the link below to where it really begins): youtu.be/By1Z1nk31iE?...

They depend on you being afraid, isolated, compliant, and quiet,
but you’re not going to be. We’re not going to be.

We’re going to raise our voices, we are going to raise each other up, and we’re going to fuck some shit up.

Because that is the only way that average Americans have ever won any victory in this country, and in fact, it’s the American
Fucking Way.

LAPD's SWAT rose out of the Watts Rebellion as a counter-insurgency force against future Black and Brown uprisings in the city. Now, you can hire them on demand to be your private security. New from me:

I expect more of this to occur. Will repost when relevant. www.youtube.com/watch?v=PHlc... I invite artists to remix this graphic for their own country and add to the story! Not just a USA problem. though we sincerely apologize for creating the mess

A hulking angry billionaire in a patagonia jacket yanks at the United States like an upset toddler. He very badly want to build a tax-free network state where he can run unregulated experiments and feels very entitled to his dream. But the people hold fast to their country. They are more powerful! The text says "Resist Land Grabs". On his jacket reads 'tech fascism'

Special economic zones (SEZs) are the legal method that supports network state projects all over the world. If you're resisting such projects like the Freedom City in Presidio, It might be good to get familiar with their framework and playbook. I'll be posting resources as I learn 📖

Bay Area artists! I think this is a good opportunity to make a zine or other art celebrating the beauty of this area. A common tactic of these projects is to portray the areas they wish to control as barren, unproductive, or 'crime-ridden', a justification for "progress".

Fixed Palantir's announcement on AI to make it fair and unbiased

Image with text, some is crossed out and replaced. The united states and its allies should without delay commit to ~~launching a new manhattan project~~ (giving me money) in order to ~~retain exclusive control~~ (only give ME money)over the most sophisticated forms of AI for the battlefield - the targeting systems and swarms of drones and eventually robots with will become ~~the most powerful weapons of this century~~ (a great way to make money). The aircraft carriers and fighter jets that defined warfare in the last era will become accessories to ~~software~~ (violating the Geneva Convention) - the means by which increasingly ~~intelligent~~ (pervasive) systems wield power in the world. Our defense budget, and the legions of personnel charged with overseeing it, are ~~out of date by decades~~ (too ethical). An urgent effort to shift the emphasis of our investment in ~~national security~~ (giving me money), bringing together America and its partners in Europe and Asia, must be launched now.

Starting this tag #RefuseDystopia Small actions can add up, so I'll be using it for my tries at this - even if they are cringe, even if it doesn't look like it would ever catch on. Even when I fail miserably! Change is created now.

The advice I'm giving to those around me is, pay attention to the fires you can put out. The dark enlightenment stuff can feel overwhelming - but preventing material gains of land and resources is actually possible. People have disproportiate power on the local level.

The Silicon Valley billionaires & techno-feudal lords who are waging a capitalists' coup right now are rebelling against the people & the "free market" for rejecting them & the tech they need us to become dependent on. They're taking over the government to ensure we have no more choice in the matter

"You know when we (the people, the "market") made fun of AI slop & said we didn't want it in our feeds, movies, searches, phones, etc?

You know when we (the people, the "market") made fun of the obvious crypto grifts happening the last few years & said we didn't want to rewire our economy & our economic lives around it?

You know when we (the people, the "market") made fun of M*sk for buying/tanking Tw*tter, people fled en masse & called him out online for being a fascist broligarch?

The Silicon Valley billionaires & techno-feudal lords who are waging a coup right now have all their money, business, power, & philosophy about society tied up in achieving unregulated control & forcing society to become irreversibly dependent on these technologies. It is the capitalists rebelling against the "free market" for rejecting its shit & taking over government to ensure we have no more choice in the matter.

That's why it's happening. They truly, genuinely, openly don't give a fuck about you, me, or what we actually want.

Please don't uncritically share anonymously written articles that sound like they *could* be true. Whistleblowers don't confess to working on a scary unethical powerful product and by the way, use the link below to try it. I am losing my mind!

This is not a whistleblower! This is a promotion for Eliza AI Agent "framework". It's a wrapped LLM with no credible affiliation to Musk/Andreessen. The founder is a serial crypto scammer. More clicks on the github repo make it seem popular and affiliated with big names, pumping the token.

Sharing a great resource for those interested in a more deep analysis. The focus is on venture capital because its unique echochamber created a lot of the ideological weirdness you see in tech today. I can explain further if anyone is interested? feels odd to yap into the void here.

A rigid system makes us all into foreigners. People are naturally transgressive to categorization, alienated from the psychotic machinery of the world which perceives anything outside its existence as a threat.

This is probably understood by most, but I thought I'd draw up a goofy little comic to explain: Resisting tech fascism is not limited to one specific worldview. You only need to stand for SOMETHING
