Fascism is a corporate uniparty project disguised by purely theatrical partisan opposition.

No joke. I think this is the most important video I have ever seen about mobile games. This guy breaks down how this game psychologically profiles you, and makes the game harder or easier in order to show you ads

An awful lot of doomsday hype articles being put out by the AI companies themselves. They want to scare the public into accepting the tech bros as responsible, so they can then stay at the helm to "regulate" it. But they claim AI sentience so that they can dismiss AI's misdeeds as not their own.

🚨Sen. Gustavo Rivera caught two plain-clothed ICE agents who claimed to be investigating a shooting carried out by their colleagues in the Bronx. However, they appeared to conduct the investigation in highly illicit manners.

If the stock market tanked, but everyone was fed, clothed, housed, healthy, and content, the news would tell you to panic because of the economic emergency. The stock market is not the economy. Its benefactors just want you to think it is, and to care about it above society's needs.

Reminder that a healthy society should seek the continual reduction of "jobs." Tech has reduced our need for hard, obligatory labor. But we're trapped in a system that says we don't deserve to survive if we don't continue to toil, so that the worst among us can extract that power for themselves.

Tired of this nonsense. We live in capitalism. This is how it always operates. The capital class uses govt to take what they want from the public and the world, as far as they can until there is adequate resistance. Until they fear for their lives and fortunes.

Under capitalism if you steal from your employer you go to jail but if your employer steals from you then you need to win a class action lawsuit to get back what they stole, and they suffer zero consequences. Capitalism is all about using state power to protect capital by force.

Charles Keener (@charleskeener. bs... 12d Let's be precise about what "uniparty' actually means, because the word gets dismissed as a conspiracy theory by people whose careers depend on that dismissal. It does not mean Republicans and Democrats agree on everything. It means they agree on the things that matter to the people who fund them both.

They disagree on abortion.
 They disagree on gun control. 
They disagree on immigration framing and tax rates at the margins and which pronouns to argue about this week. 

They do not disagree on defense contractor budgets.
 They do not disagree on pharmaceutical industry immunity. 
They do not disagree on bank bailouts. 
They do not disagree on surveillance expansion. They do not disagree on protecting their own members from accountability when the crimes are serious enough. 
They do not disagree on the fundamental question of whether the people who write large enough checks should have direct access to legislative outcomes. 

They perform disagreement on the issues that divide voters. They maintain consensus on the issues that protect donors. The performance is the product. The outrage you feel at the other team is the mechanism by which your attention is kept away from the things both teams are quietly agreeing on while you watch the fight.
You are the audience. You are not the constituency. There is a difference.

So much of the bad shit that happens in the US occurs because people are selfish, thinking only about themselves and what they want, refusing to reflect on how their actions affect others. They refuse to be introspective and consider how their own behavior is contributing to our descent into hell.

In the wake of the largest rollback of civil rights for a minority group in modern history, some Dems aren't asking how to undo it, they're asking for permission to support it. There has been a gusher of money poured from VC and SV types into Searchlight, Third Way, and The Argument to enable it.

"Might be a good idea to fill your vehicles up now.
Taking this pipeline out removes 5M barrels per day from global supply. Saudi Arabia produced just under 6.25M barrels per day in August."

"We think there’s a moral imperative to put these robots into war instead of soldiers." The High Horse Defense, amazing. Why isn't there a moral imperitive to have these robots grow and harvest crops, or do dangerous work that serves society, freeing us from the chains of obligatory wage labor?

This article is so bad. "People aren't liking capitalism. To find out why, we've asked only capitalists." "To see if this is a systems issue, we ignored market dynamics, growth incentives, and negative externalities, to blame behaviors consistent with these forces on bad management choices."

The "centrist" think tank Third Way is looking to pay someone between $140,000 and $150,000 to spend their days trying to dig up dirt on DSA members. They're trying to sell this gig as "anti-extremism" work, which I find completely disgusting.
from job listing:

As the Director of Anti-Extremism, a typical day might include…

Assembling and updating a database of the DSA’s most extreme ideas and statements and a repository of voting records, affiliations, and issue positions to make available to allies and partners;
Leading public opinion research to identify and test the contrasts that move base voters away from these extreme candidates;
Overseeing the development of memos, talking points, rapid response materials, and other products that make the case against these extreme forces in American politics;
Promoting and marketing our research and materials to ensure they reach decisionmakers quickly, repeatedly, and at scale through a coordinated distribution infrastructure;
Recruiting and arming a group of young, diverse spokespeople to fight the DSA from a center-left perspective and assembling a broad coalition of organizational partners to make the case against extremism;
Running an earned media program to create a drumbeat of our message in op-eds, television appearances, podcasts, and traditional and digital media engagement.
