I’ll have to dig into all this later but I asked Chat GPT why we need all these huge data centers that use so much power. It said we probably won’t forever. This idea of “distributed AI” where you only need the data centers for AI training and would use much more efficient sources for general use.

I believe he’s talking about CIA involvement in Mexico. They have been killing cartel members inside Mexico without the government’s permission. Read this story from CNN: www.cnn.com/2026/05/12/p...

Exclusive: CIA escalates secret war on cartels with deadly operations inside Mexico | CNN Politics
Since last year, CIA operatives inside Mexico have directly participated in deadly attacks on several, mostly mid-level cartel members, the sources said.

I listened to this doozy of an interview while I fixed my oat meal this morning. This part and the idea that Israel/Palestine will just sort of become one state, but with Palestinians in charge instead of Israelis, struck me as rather naive.

Mao put people into poverty. Post-Mao China pulled them out specifically by renouncing his economic policies.

No that’s the stuff I agree with too. It’s the pro-Mao, pro-Castro, pro-North Korea, and pretending like Hezbollah and Hamas are just innocent do gooders is what I have a problem with.

Pro-Mao, Pro-Castro, now even Pro-North Korea (posted it on X yesterday). He still says the Hezbollah flag is his favorite. In Michigan they are already running ads with Hasan saying the US deserved 9/11.

Yeah that’s great, it’s just that once people know his views they are totally turned off. He does 8 hour shows and says a lot of outrageous stuff which would be ok if he weren’t becoming connected to Democratic politicians and giving Republicans endless supply of ad material.

Maybe a lot of people don’t know the totality of his views yet. I know he’s popular. That’s why I did a deep dive and decided he’s bad news even though I agree with a lot of things he says. The whole pro-Mao, pro-Castro, oh North Korea actually isn’t so bad stuff, is where I draw the line.

They won despite Hasan not because of Hasan.

I’m afraid of the answer at this point. He is rather sympathetic towards Castro too. He recently went to Cuba and came back essentially with the government line that all problems in Cuba are due to US meddling. We haven’t helped matters, but that doesn’t explain everything, obviously.

Also, associating himself with Mao and N. Korea doesn’t help the progressives loosely connected with him distance themselves from accusations of being communist.
