People would understand what's going on if it was a tinpot dictator in a supposed "2nd or 3rd world country," but the belief in American exceptionalism has just absolutely pulverized any ability to recognize what's happening here because the evidence is just undeniable at this point.

Not great when you recognize the whole AI thing reflects the mentality and worldview of white supremacist slavers looking for free labor to increase their profits while doing nothing and also living in total, all-consuming fear that there will be an uprising that leads to their violent comeuppance.

Disclose the money! Show the receipts! Any "influencer" taking money from a campaign or PAC should have to reveal it. These sleazy shills destroy politics even more. Podcasters etc who fundraiase for candidates or who do their PR should be marked as operatives, not as journalists or creative people.

We had the opportunity to limit catastrophic damage to a 1.5 degree increase but that meant calling on the oil giants to do their part. Canada is now predicting a 3.5 to 5 degrees increase. That will spell the end of civilization. And we are still going all in on a $100 billion pipeline?

One thing I wish people would realize is just how central JK Rowling is to the entire anti-trans ecosystem. Looking at a network node analysis of the top 200 anti-trans X accounts, she is the most central figure spanning both sides of the Atlantic from Republicans to Labour.
A network graph visualization on a dark background showing connections between various accounts. The central, highly connected node is labeled "J.K. Rowling," with lines radiating out to many other nodes color-coded by region (UK, US, etc.). A detail panel on the right displays stats for her account, including her role as "Author & commentator," an in-degree of 153, an out-degree of 84, and 14 million followers.A scatter plot graph on a dark background comparing accounts based on "followers (log)" on the x-axis and "in-degree" on the y-axis. The data points are color-coded by region. J.K. Rowling is highlighted as a major outlier in the top right corner, possessing the highest number of followers and the highest in-degree. Other labeled points lower on the graph include various politicians, individuals, and campaign organizations.
