The Cost of Black Conformity.
It dives into the UK's Surveillance Culture, how it conditions people into Conformity and Elitisms and how this intersects into race, class and neurodivergence. This is the hardest I've worked on a video. Show some love.

All who eulogize this person positively & all media outlets martyring him, including the CEO of this app, you all KNOW you could roll out a scroll's worth of quotes like this attributed to him. You KNOW he stoked violence. In honoring him you stoke more.

The rest of us now see how You think of us.

Im convinced half of those random accounts with profiles like Proud Democrat Dad, Resistance Mom or SexyStacey69 that follow people are just random feds lurking on Bsky, watching, learning and keeping notes.

Assume this place is not nearly as anonymous or as secure as you hope.

Stay vigilant.
People, don't talk about committing acts of violence on public social media! What is wrong with you?

The police and their informants can see your posts

And obviously don't try to get other people to do it for you. WTF?
Gonna be as blunt as I possibly can about this:

Dont quote me, a black male, about pivoting towards **hardcore violence** on the state in a time when hardcore violence is being regularly inflicted & pivoted on us.

Yelling @ us to publicly put targets on our backs means you’re nowhere near an ally.

AI enthusiasm is closer to seeing a giant meteor about to collide with the earth, and spending all your time telling people they just don't understand.
"Imagine knowing electricity or the internet were coming ... before both fully and wholly upended business, culture and life. That's the AI moment we see unfolding today" - possibly one of the stupidest things i've seen written about AI, great work Axios!

Readers ask why we are so AI-obsessed in our coverage.

Bro really went all out on such a thoughtful and well-edited/sourced discussion of surveillance, criminality, neurodivergence, and more. Do show some love because it's an experience.
