The BEST thing that true believers in AI could do is stop evangelizing to people, like me, who think it sucks. Do the hard, years-long work of detaching your beloved technology from the worst people in the world right now: shameless fascists driven by greed and domination. They’re YOUR partners.

This happened in the twin cities in 2008. SWAT teams raided the homes of anarchists on Friday before the RNC, held people without charges over the weekend and labor day, then for the two "working days" they're allowed.... then let one go on Thurs and immediately re-arrested her outside the building.

The techno-dystopia I actually fear is a future where most people think truth is whatever Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini, or Grok say, and the very small number of people who control those systems use that to manipulate for their own ends, making our current epistemic crisis seem small in comparison.

Yes every woman has been harassed, many assaulted. But every woman has also experienced invisible loss from moments she avoided harassment. She felt a space becoming unsafe, so she left, while men stayed on. And in leaving, she lost: opportunities, experiences, learning, promotions, even simply fun.

I literally don’t know a single woman who hasn’t been raped, stalked, groped, harassed, or sexually violated in some way at some point in their life. If you choose to doubt and dox survivors, just know every woman in your life is disgusted by you.

For nearly two months, Palestinians in Gaza City’s Sheikh Radwan neighborhood had access to water at any time — a welcome sense of stability in the depths of a genocidal war. On Aug. 24, that stability was disrupted by an Israeli airstrike that destroyed the newly built water desalination plant.

Every college in this country decided that expelling and/or sending the police to beat the shit out of their own students for the crime of being opposed to genocide was their top priority. That and giving Trump complete control of what they teach. Contrast that with how they treat rapists.

Stretch them

Unfortunately, that research is insufficient, misleading and dead wrong in many cases. Where 3.5% leads those changes they both don’t follow strict principles of non-violence and often come from more densely organized and unionized communities. We cannot expect mass participation to win on its own.

Disabled people endured & fought against Centuries of paternalistic & outright draconian treatment, eventually making Section 504 a livable, workable reality. Rolling it back will hurt & kill people, & that is not hyperbole. This country's increased anti-disability push is eugenicist to its core.
