The psychology of this website is so transparent. They're not attacking progressive media (who don't give a shit) so much as they're naming access bootlickers who already often cater to the WH anyway — because they’ll actually freak out and change their coverage *even more.*

There is hope for the future
There was an article in The Guardian a few weeks back about how Gen Z find bookshops preferable to online shopping, and a key factor was that an algorithm will offer you 6000 books identical to the one you just finished whereas a bookseller will offer you three that are different but meet the vibe.

I remember Dawning Realization Month for the NFT people too. Think this is going to take much longer because of how wrapped up the whole economy is in this, but it really feels like it's happening.
Anecdotally on twitter seeing a big shift the last few days from every AI slop account saying every other creative field is “over” and they’re in control now to now posting about how nobody likes them and it’s not fair and they’ll persevere and real artists respect and uplift eachother

"Don't follow illegal orders" would be more meaningful if Democrats had prosecuted literally any of the prominent war criminals of the last 30 years instead of, you know, fucking campaigning with them

NEW: The F.D.A. announced in an internal memo that 10 children died "because of" the Covid shot. Other experts want to see proof.
“This is a profound revelation,” Dr. Prasad's memo said. “For the first time, the U.S. F.D.A. will acknowledge that Covid-19 vaccines have killed American children.”

Might be thinking about this more than usual because of a project that will probably be announced next year, but I am ALSO thinking about the rapid invisibilization of survivors of both these things, and the fact that history has largely forgotten about encephalitis lethargica.
Been thinking a lot about how the pandemic fundamentally broke our brains and our collective response; in a way it reminds me of the frenzied excess of the 1920s as people reeled from WWI and the influenza pandemic, and the hard fall we took at the end of that decade is coming for us this time too.

Think about how much easier it would be to prosecute Hegseth for war crimes if Kissinger or Cheney and Rumsfield had been.
Can you even imagine how different the last few decades would be if Kissinger had faced literally any form of justice for his crimes.

Jesus Christ. JESUS Christ. Jesus CHRIST. Yes, this person is correct, remigration is a white supremacy term for ethnic cleansing, basically. And the Department of Homeland Security, WHICH SHOULDN'T EVEN EXIST, just used the term. An official government account. That is...that is beyond fucked.
A reminder for those who are not aware: "remigration" is the process of deporting all non-white people from a country. It includes citizens and is, by definition, ethnic cleansing.
And to be clear: this is not fake. I just screenshot it myself.

Same but for any restaurant that uses AI images of their food (including a few well reviewed, high end places in nyc)
I don’t know if anyone else notices or cares, but when I see a presentation in which the speaker uses obviously generated-AI images to illustrate their slides, it makes me immediately less confident in whatever other content they’re presenting.

It's only going to get worse for trans people as the FBI under Bailey will make prosecuting trans people and parents of trans youth a higher priority. They'll start by trying to effectively ban access to HRT throughout the US.
Andrew Bailey, in line to replace Patel, is a white nationalist firebrand whose name you might recognize as in '23 as Missouri AG, he tried to unilaterally ban trans health care for adults & children, sought kids' private medical records, and tried to get local police to physically enforce his law.
MS NOW EXCLUSIVE: “President Trump is considering removing Kash Patel as FBI director in the coming months, as he and his top aides have grown increasingly frustrated by the unflattering headlines Patel has recently generated.”
