People also really underestimate the state of the internet already back then. In 2015 Reddit, for example, was wall to wall Trump memes.

The great success of the 2022 crypto winter was that it wasn't integrated with the banking system, and therefore couldn't cascade across the economy. Nobody thanked Gary Gensler for that recession-preventing move, and nobody will apologize to him when this goes badly.
With the most brutal haircuts I hope...

Bro is gonna throw everybody in the arms of China, isn’t he? History books will have to give him credit for creating the Chinese century
Carney: "We can't control the trade policy of the US. We recognize it has fundamentally changed from the policy in the 1980s, 1990s, 2000s, & it's a situation where US has tariffs against every trading partner... what we we can control is developing new partnerships, including w/econ giants of Asia"
People keep calling it Orbanization, but the US is a major country. Not some small little corner of Europe. This will destroy any soft power the US still has via media and content.
GenAI is a defamation machine? Actually the internet seems to have become that. In the before times when social media was small this still happened, but had way less immediate consequences.
… time it isn’t some big shot rich guy. It’s your neighbor. It’s your classmate or colleague bc they have a flag on their desk, bc they covered a protest, bc they drink diet soda (no, im not exaggerating). So there’s another, larger thing, that actually needs to be “reigned in”.
… outlaw spaces. They’re almost as much defamation spaces as they are for mere conspiracizing. The “they/them” from the past (“they are doing it”, the shadowy them, even if the group is clear as in “the jews”) has been entirely “personalized”. The they has names, faces, families, and a lot of the…
… the age of the internet. I study conspiracy theories. I’m not a law professor or expert. But my classmates very much are. And at least here an immense portion of these spaces (that now include the entirety of Twitter, huge parts of instagram and facebook, TikTok, etc) are entirely ALREADY…
Reigning in. Yes.
However, genAI puts a wider thing in spotlight.
In the before times, you wouldn’t publish a headline like “politician/public figures eats babies”. Cuz you have no proof of that, you are presenting no proof, so it’s defamation. Libel. All that. But somehow this disappeared in the…

The AI industry wants us to believe AI superintelligence is the real threat from generative AI.

But that narrative was crafted to distract from the many ways genAI is being used to tear our societies apart, as we saw this week when a deepfake video rocked the Irish election. It must be reined in.
Generative AI is a societal disaster
Governments are deluding themselves into believing investment justifies allowing AI to upend society

the plan is to end the incentive for immigration by making the US exactly like the Latin American countries people run from
it is bad, for sure, but also kinda funny seeing the US going so full Latin America

venho dizendo isso. as manchetes das ultimas eleições no mundo todo têm sido "extrema-direita ficou em ___ lugar". quem ganhou? sei lá. parece até que tavam torcendo.
That scene of the Welsh BBC correspondent being the only person interviewing Caerphilly's new Plaid AM while the rest of the media interviewed Reform's loser in the background was far too on the nose.

casual Medea appears on your TL
"we need to keep the ethno stability of the people who genocided the original inhabitants of these lands"

is just way, way up there for me
the ethno-cultural identity of "Canada"
diluting the native population and culture

what always gets me is that these folks too are a form of projection
