Sam Altman said people are just gonna have to die in order to implement AI. In the very same week, Anthropic claimed it’s a human rights violation to be mean to the computer. These people need to be held accountable. They think lines of code are a person with rights but living people are debris.

These people thought the moral of the famous sci-fi novel “Don’t Create the Torment Nexus” was “the torment nexus is inevitable, so we should build it as fast as possible and make sure we’re the ones it likes.”

Christa Pike and Tony Carruthers' torturous execution attempts aren't exceptions, but a predictable result of the death penalty's brutality. We must end the death penalty once and for all.

Why Tennessee’s Botched Death Row Execution Could Happen Anywhere

The complications behind Tennessee’s failed execution of Christa Pike aren’t uncommon — and show how easily another botched execution could occur, even as others are planned soon in Texas and Florida.

An important point: the protests began in working-class suburbs with large racialised populations, including Saint-Denis, north of Paris. This historic burial place of French kings now has a Black mayor, Bally Bagayoko, from the left-wing party LFI. White supremacy also underpins police brutality.

Wrapping up thread for today. What seems clear is that student protests aren't going away until the gov puts money on the table. What is also clear is that Macron's government has totally lost control of the police. Whether this is intentional or not, I'll leave that for historians to debate.

Another (more explicit) angle. There was absolutely NO need for this. This is life-threatening police violence. And they know it. Look how he's swatting the camera away.

During today’s protest in Rennes (Brittany), 8th of October, a student lost part of his finger. His hand was resting on a wire fence when police charged. This shows how brutal police charges can be. When protecting yourself is also verboten, you have no choice but to be left exposed to the violence.

Far-right pundits are complaining about spelling mistakes on protest signs. The mistakes are deliberate: they highlight the shortage of teachers and resources in public schools. Irony is indeed dead.
