While I agree Naziism is a bridge too far, don't underestimate the power of information silos and groupthink. My brother is a health tech, and between a healthy disgust for the waste in the system, big pharma, and getting into prepper podcasts, he's got some odd ideas. Fortunately, not full antivax.
I was at a tech party where he was a guest in the mid 1980s and he was accompanied by a very good looking young woman at the time. Of course, he was in his 30s and still an eligible bachelor at the time, so it wasn't too weird, but with all that money, I'm sure he's always had companions.
Plus there's the question of individual sales vs large organizations that are pushing an agenda.
Any novelist who wrote a story where the president posted a fake video of himself shitting on his citizens and then took a real wrecking ball to the White House would be told that their metaphors were way too heavy-handed. Reality has no editors.
Natural gas isn't clean and truly capturing all the released carbon would probably use more energy than was released.
Solidarity is the right way. Bring back the IWW.
I hear Big Brother loves it.
"AI chatbots give a highly distorted and polarized image of the Dutch political landscape in a test."

Is this surprising? When Musk can make a few tweaks an Grok becomes MechaHitler? When OpenAI says their changing parameters to keep responses from being too woke?
You have to ask why it's easier for them to harm Black voters than enact policies that will make Black voters want to join their party.

Don’t laugh. Some kiwi marketing agency probably issued a PR about kiwifruit and fibre and CNN gobbled it up. So many press releases get turned into stories.
Paging Will Eno. This sounds like a tragedy.
the AWS outage is affecting Ring doorbells. Sky News says “some users can’t see outside their house, definitely scary”

just look outside your window 😅
It probably doesn't help that we read kids fairy tales about handsome prices and beautiful princesses. Sets the expectations too high.
Agreed. Setting up organizations to feed people, pay their rent, do childcare when they're picketing, ...

Bring back the IWW, they knew all about that stuff.
I guess wearing a suit didn't help.
"The US president tossed aside maps of the frontline in Ukraine, insisted Zelenskyy surrender the entire Donbas region to Putin, and repeatedly echoed talking points the Russian leader had made in their call a day earlier"

I think you mean family jewels.
Recall that a Senate report concluded several Trump associates were a counterintelligence risk, such as: Paul Manafort, Michael Flynn, Roger Stone, George Papadopoulos, and Carter Page.

Several were criminally convicted (and later pardoned by Trump).
Remember when they hounded Hillary for years over insufficient email security protocols?

Came here to post Lupin as well.
BDE. 🙄
In my professional opinion 'lewd conduct' laws are about actual dicks, not inflatable dicks
#NoKings event in Fairhope, Al.
A woman was arrested for "lewd conduct" because she was dressed in penis suit with a sign that said "No dick-tator"
3 cops on a 53 yo woman.
Official estimate is 2500.
