Google finally updated some of its satellite images of Gaza and my god, it's horrific. The entirety of Rafah has been demolished. The majority of Khan Younis is in ruins. Entire towns completely leveled and erased of the map.

You know how I keep saying the Times paywall is basically a rattling trapdoor over the demon realm? Well
We have analysed just how obsessed the media was with Jason Arday right up until his death.
We tracked 249 articles about him by UK media. 44 from The Times alone, 43 from The Telegraph, and the list goes on.
The nonsense the media was publishing about him was a perfect representation of how morally bankrupt legacy journalism has become.

This headline is fuel for the right-wing anti-migrant reaction machine, but the article reveals the employer knowingly brought her to the UK under a visitor visa to employ her, then denied her a work permit—and most importantly!—refused to pay her any wages. This looks approximate to modern slavery

Labour saying Starmer 'keeping Britain out of the war' will be part of their local elections campaign. But it's untrue. There are 27 US B52s at RAF Fairford, launching bombing raids. Starmer has made Britain part of Trump's war. He could have just said no, like Spain's PM.

amazing how the entire machine can pivot within 24 hours. no need to slowly upsell the argument; just issue new marching orders
Matt Walsh tweeted last year: "We've spent the last 25 years bringing "freedom" and "democracy" to countries around the globe while our own country has been systematically invaded and now our largest cities are run by foreigners and communists. If you want to know why I'm so avowedly non-interventionist, this is why."

Then he tweeted today: ""This is a war for oil!!!!!"

First of all, the "war" lasted like 90 minutes. Second, going to war to secure vital resources for your own people is totally legitimate. Why should we allow some third world communist shithole to control trillions of dollars worth of oil?"Laura Loomer tweeted last year: "I’m America First, I don’t support “Regime Change”. I went on @Bannons_WarRoom to talk about Chinese aggression in Venezuela and why we need to designate the Muslim Brotherhood as a foreign Islamic terrorist organization."

Then she tweeted yesterday: "Maduro has arrived at the DEA office in Manhattan. He was transported in an armored motorcade after being transported in a blindfold via helicopter & then by plane to New York after his compound in Caracas was raided by US Special Forces.

Proud to be an American today!

USA 🇺🇸"Catturd tweeted last year: "Name one U.S. inspired regime change that hasn’t ended in absolute disaster."

Then he tweeted yesterday: "Venezuela is now more free than New York City."Will Chamberlain tweeted last year: "The Republican Party is no longer the party of regime change and endless wars

If you want to be its standard-bearer that is a non-negotiable position"

Then he tweeted yesterday: "I can think of few better uses of my tax dollars than black-bagging the head of a foreign narco-trafficking organization that enriches itself by addicting and poisoning my fellow Americans"

The correct response to this is to use the WHO yellow fever proof of vaccine framework to other diseases and as a travel requirement for Americans, so that at least we can contain the idiots and prevent them infecting others. Ideally combined with hard censorship of American anti vaxx influencers.

AI is not "a neutral technology" because every single one of these three dimensions skews its impact towards far right goals: - the underlying tech reproduces bias - the form factor of it sidelines expertise - the way it's productized breaks down critical thinking and labor power
