Yesterday, white nationalist paramilitary forces attacked another Chicago neighborhood with chemical weapons. Families and at least one infant were gassed. This morning, they are kidnapping more immigrants both here and in other metros (D.C., L.A. still being terrorized).

Presumably they'll claim you need to deposit a stake or pay a processing fee

Six people had their visas revoked due to their social media posts.

Six people are being deported because of what they said online.

Six people have had their freedom of speech suspended.

It won’t stop with these six people.

Either we all have freedom of speech or none of us do.

I want to say that's by pure volume since AI operated by <shudder> milions of users can spin up an ungodly amount of "content" in minutes. But then, the content game was always about volume for the worst people on earth

Not to mention the media is already spinning local violence, reprisal killings, etc as Hamas pure and simple. But it's "just war" when thousands of children get intentionally vaporized for two years straight

This is genuinely one of those things EVERYONE agrees on. My last dog shooting case was in rural MO and the town was OUTRAGED. Imagine 65 year olds at the town meeting talking about how they don't need police if that's what they're gonna do.

Faine Greenwood @faineg.bsky.social · 16h

I have long believed that we should be WAY more vocal about how police and ICE constantly murder dogs, and I think this is great messaging actually.

The reality is that you can mobilize a whole lot of usually tuned-out Americans around a “someone is being mean to hecking doggos” cause.

That popular Hollywood movie depiction of Nazis usually skipped over how obsessed with weird ancient pagan cosplay batshit insane most senior Nazis were

Mr. Chau @srirachachau.bsky.social · 10h

It’s funny how the old media depiction of Nazis was always that they’re evil but dignified gentleman and now they’re openly just like “Hello. I’m the Anime Pedophile”

Out at Broadview to see if the fence will be taken down today. The Iron Workers at local 63 which is near by the facility are wearing “Fuck Trump” buttons and heckled Ben Bergquam and Terry Newsome as they tried to antagonize protesters on Beach Street.

OpenAI pivoting to sex bots for adults (notably they have to specify "for adults" because the industry do be like that) is good evidence for my thesis that AI and other synthetic/virtual world technologies are ultimately part of a class of somnambulant social control technologies

Sapiens is mostly a Hayekian/neoliberal just-so story dressed up as history

Michael Hobbes @michaelhobbes.bsky.social · 1d

"Sapiens" is so normal for the first 70,000 years of human history but then goes absolutely buckwild as soon as it gets to colonialism

Had the Aztecs and Incas shown a bit more interest in the world surrounding them - and had they known what the Spaniards had done to their neighbours - they might have resisted the Spanish conquest more keenly and successfully.
