I wrote a book about US media’s complicity in the Gaza genocide. It's available for pre-order. It’s a data-driven and, I hope, thorough account of how center-left media sold the American public on mass death in Gaza.

I don’t think you’ll get a more “on the nose” example of blowback than a guy from Afghanistan who America trained to go around executing civilians in something called a “zero squad” who later moves to America and attacks the American government. Like holy shit what the fuck are we doing here?

Probably not a big deal.

It’s not like trillions of tons of ice melt, rocks expanding in crazy heat waves or changing water levels affect tectonic plates and fault line stress right?

If you're ever wondered why journalists seem so out of touch most of the time it's because in order to establish yourself you need to either come from money, marry into money, or be OK with abject poverty and daily financial panic

That third thing is unsustainable long-term

They literally say he violated terms of service by committing suicide.
“OpenAI’s court filing argued that the harms in this case were at least partly caused by Raine’s ‘failure to heed warnings, obtain help, or otherwise exercise reasonable care,’ as well as the ‘failure of others to respond to his obvious signs of distress.’”
OpenAI denies allegations that ChatGPT is to blame for a teenager's suicide
Adam Raine's family sued the AI company in August. On Tuesday, OpenAI said in a new court filing that it isn't responsible for the teen's death.

When people say “more supply of housing will lower demand which lowers prices” as a solution to housing crisis
what they’re really saying is I have zero idea how finance works in 2025 and learned absolutely nothing from 07’ economic collapse.

When you do evil shit how do you not feel crappy about yourself?

Do you use total ignorance, willful ignorance, plausible deniability or “screw it, I’m going full Sith Lord” embrace?

Another emotional framework that lets people be horrible and feel okay about it…
