The scariest part of AI isn’t that it will dominate humans but that humans will use it to discredit all evidence that proves horrifying things are happening. Real audio recordings, images, and videos become AI & AI becomes real. Reality is thus denied. AI is counterinsurgency.

Wait, I thought bombing Venezuelan boats was to stop drug running. But we're pardoning one of the worst drug runners? How could hypocrisy be so blatant with no press calling it out and Congress ignoring it? What has happened to this country?
The narco-state president Juan Orlando Hernández, who shipped hundreds of tons of cocaine to the US, was apparently released yesterday after Trump pardoned him. This is a reminder that narco-states are right wing and that the US has always supported them.

The Trump regime pardons the drug kings and corporate embezzlers, while committing war crimes against people on boats, and kidnapping workers.

Central America will soon have two Palestinian presidents. Nasry “Tito” Asfura in Honduras and Nayib Bukele in El Salvador, both of whom will serve US imperialism and the neocolonial reconfiguration of the region. A person’s identity is never a guarantee of their politics.

Call it simplistic I don’t give a fuck but keeping a staunch supporter of an ethnonationalist genocidal state as the Commissioner of the NYPD is extremely problematic, to put it mildly.

The State certainly rules by wielding its sword but it solidifies its dominion with pen and paper, codified into laws that structure all spheres of social existence, including knowledge producing institutions.

Gaza’s shadow over NYC: How a mayoral race turned into a moral referendum
TEHRAN – Zohran Kwame Mamdani, the Ugandan-Indian son of a postcolonial scholar who was born in Uganda, has done something the pundit class assumed impossible: his campaign dragged the once-distant politics of Gaza into the center of a New York mayoral election and forced voters to decide whether American power remains accountable.

Critics of decolonial thought say that decolonial scholarship essentializes western thought. These critics, however, never really give an honest answer why their favorite philosophers outright supported colonialism. It’s not surprising that philosophers today justify genocide.

Historically, enslaved and colonized people refusing and resisting the liberal reforms legal frameworks constitutive of international law was used as evidence that they were not ready to rule themselves. It was taken as evidence of their non-Western backwardness.
