How Geeks Ate the World - Plato Was a Dick

I'm writing a book about the rise of reactionary movements in Western geek culture, particularly since the beginning of the internet until now, and how we got stuck in this shitty alt-white meme-fash tech-dystopia within a mere 25 years: Article thread! 1/š§µ

So Elon Musk says he's going to file for full custody of Ashley St Clair's son, and the reason he cites is that her attempt to make amends about past bigotry toward trans people is evidence that she is going to forcibly transition a baby. He thinks NOT being transphobic is, itself, child abuse.

It's fun to say "get ready to die for Jeffrey Epstein" but you're absolutely right at the end of the day. They don't need distractions anyway, they know they can just stop talking about it and people will stop caring, which is what has happened already basically besides a handful of resist libs.

I don't know how many times I'm going to need to hear it before I finally get used to the phrase "planned invasion of Greenland"
I'm hearing about this in a few states. My big question is whether it is preparation for a crackdown on resistance to ICE operations, or a preemptive crackdown on anti war protesters after the planned invasion of Greenland
my friend is a postal worker in minneapolis and they all got letters at work today to show to police to prove they are essential workers authorized to be out. i guess we're to the "papers please" era now officially.

What the fuck does he need charity for??? He's not in any legal trouble, he will never be in any legal trouble. He's probably going to be given the Medal of Honor. He has the full support of the US government. People will really just give their savings to this guy because he shot a woman.
NEW: It appears billionaire Bill Ackman has donated $10k to a GoFundMe for Jonathan Ross, the ICE agent who killed Renee Good.
Ackman has reposted the fundraiser but hasnāt posted about his own donation.

Hope you guys are ready to die for Elon Musk!
If the UK, Canada and Australia ban Twitter, there's a non zero chance it ends in what future historians will call, "World War 1, but dumber"

The Trump picture is one thing but why did they use his angry face?
The use of an image of Trump on the 2026 pass ā rather than the usual picture of nature ā has sparked a backlash, sticker protests, and a lawsuit from a conservation group.
National Park Service will void passes with stickers over Trump's face

If there's any hope for humanity this needs to raise several times more than that woman who screamed the N-word at a child and got a million bucks for it

Most technical bugs in the early phases of technology don't result in the industrial scale generation of nonconsensual and child pornography, if they did you wouldn't usually expect it to take two weeks to address, and if it did you wouldn't expect them to address it by monetizing it.

Incidentally I just noticed that Grok at some point today has started telling people that image generation is now for paying susbscribers only. So he hasn't switched off the ability to deepfake people, he's instead monetized it

It sounds like this guy actually just spends a lot of time trying to get hit by cars, like he's Saul Goodman
Ok so when Trump officials said the cop who shot the woman had been dragged by a car 6 months ago, they were clearly trying to imply someone had like charged him or grabbed him but it was him wedging himself into the window while someone tried to run away
