Just in case you were wondering if Meta is really THAT bad....good lord this is gross
Yes, of course the core issue at hand is awful and horrible. But the John Cena sex role play stuff had me literally gasping and wheezing www.wsj.com/tech/ai/meta...
Meta’s ‘Digital Companions’ Will Talk Sex With Users—Even Children
Chatbots on Instagram, Facebook and WhatsApp are empowered to engage in ‘romantic role-play’ that can turn explicit. Some people inside the company are concerned.

Jews have *absolutely fuck all* to do with the current “antisemitism” trend being pushed by conservatives and fascist Dems. We are just inhuman tools being leveraged to justify mask bans and civil rights violations and stifle free speech ALL WITHOUT OUR CONSENT OR VOICES.
Seeing uncritical “Adams to run on End Antisemitism ballot line” and I think I’m going to fucking lose it. The level of vile is off the charts. He is the epitome of using Jews for his own evil agenda. He doesn’t give a fuck about Jews he just sees us as a good PR line. THIS IS VIOLENTLY ANTISEMITIC!

Well the good news is, the Trump admin is all about cracking down on antisemitism. So obviously they'll take this incredibly seriously, because it's definitely about protecting Jews, right? I mean, what other motive could they possibly have for deporting Muslim college students for protesting?

We are not far away from your spouse’s cancer trial stopping, your parent’s Alzheimer’s clinical trial evaporating, your teen’s mental health intervention disappearing. It’s easy to attack universities, but the recent actions from the White House will stop cutting edge medical research very quickly.

Happy Monday! I just scheduled a doctor's appointment for my kid, thought I'd put it in my calendar, then seven minutes later had to call the office back because I did not find it in said calendar and ALSO could not for the life of me remember when we'd scheduled it for. How's your day going so far?

In case any #MAGA drones are trying to gaslight you by saying that #ElonMusk wasn't throwing a N@zi salute at the inauguration (and he threw it twice; once to the crowd, once to Trump):
(Also, he recently said that Germany's far-right, pro-Nazi AfD party was "Germany's only hope," so... yeah.)

Democrats’ only job over the next two years is to oppose. To talk about how horrible everything is. To resist the administration at every turn.
It’s time we start using their own tactics against them. Fight them on everything. From taxes to healthcare to immigration. Oppose. Oppose. Oppose.

Wait, I'm confused. Trump said he didn't know anything about Project 2025! Is it possible he...lied for his own selfish, personal gain? Come on now, that doesn't sound like the honest, moral, upstanding person we've all grown to know and love!
The Executive Orders rolling out today were part of Project 2025, the part that was never made public, overseen by Russ Vought.

I see a narrative emerging from some “experts” on Ukraine that the only path forward is a state of “neutrality”. Yesterday I wrote an article on what Putin’s demands now are. In short: Ukraine’s neutrality. Pls be aware of the information you consume. Russia is working hard to build public opinion.

Well, I guess my decision about whether/when to officially stop using Facebook and Instagram has been made for me. Both accounts have been suspended because my "linked account", which belongs to someone I've never heard of, "doesn't follow the rules". 1/2
