This is a war based on lies

Senator Jon Ossoff neatly breaks down political corruption in America — and how Trump’s “Mar-a-Lago mafia” has exploited it.

Every single Democrat should be saying this.

Meanwhile, Kash Patel is *still* FBI Director. We are a banana republic that can't even grow bananas. 🤦

Here #Palantir reveals its fascist ideology. Organize with @troublemakers.bsky.social, @climatedefiance.bsky.social, @xr-us.bsky.social, or your local activists to resist technofascism!

Extremely normal and fine for a company to put this in a public statement

Right now, Hochul is trying to kill one of our country's last remaining climate strongholds (CLCPA) — and the consequences would be catastrophic.

Why Big Tech companies got quiet on climate change Massive AI data centers are changing the calculus for friendly tech brands that once led the way in net-zero commitments.

Still just mind-boggled over this:

"Microsoft’s emissions could surge 44% due to just one West Virginia data center that will run entirely on natural gas."

Hundreds of Fake Pro-Trump Avatars Emerge on Social Media The artificial-intelligence-generated fake influencers have surged on TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and YouTube in an apparent bid to hook conservative voters.

In the months leading up to the midterm elections, hundreds of accounts have emerged on social media featuring A.I.-generated pro-Trump influencers posting at a rapid pace. Several accounts have already amassed thousands followers. Some of the posts have more than half a million views.

Oh HELL no.

With low snowpack, our hydro is becoming less reliable. Behind-the-meter power nearly always means gas. And for what? The suicide advice/porn-making/job-killing machine?

Just: no.

EBACE show cancelled with less than eight weeks’ notice - FlightGlobal This year’s EBACE business aviation show in Geneva has been cancelled less than eight weeks before it was due to take place. The move was announced by organiser the European Business Aviation Associat...

EBACE, Europe's biggest event for private jets, is cancelled!

"An invasion of the static display by environmental protestors in 2023 damaged the show’s reputation."

Hooray for @staygroundednet.bsky.social, @xrglobal.bsky.social and @greenpeace.org activists that interrupted the event!

Reading an article that posits that it's a mystery why the future price of oil is so much lower than the spot (current delivery) price, I wonder why they're afraid to say it's because we're about to enter a global recession.

I sure hope Maine doesn't replace one old politician with another in the Senate!

The oval office is occupied by the EMotUS (Evil Megalomanic of the United States).

Inside Alligator Alcatraz, Wasserman Schultz finds men crammed in cages, smell of urine, inadequate food ‘Everything about this screams inhumane and unnecessary, and the cruelty is the point,’ U.S. Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz said about the Alligator Alcatraz detention center in the Everglades.

I think many people mistakenly believe this place was shut down last year. It is very much still functioning and still torturing people.

The Art of the Deal.

When philanthropy mandates AI solutions, taxpayers pay the price Believe it or not, AI isn’t the answer to every civic tech problem, a co-founder of the U.S. Digital Service argues.

"Steve Ballmer, Bill Gates, Eric Schmidt and other tech billionaires are funding 'tech for good' groups on the condition that they have to use AI to tackle government projects."

If it were so good, maybe you wouldn't have to make people use it?

I study fascism. I’ve already fled America. On this week’s “More To The Story,” former Yale philosophy professor Jason Stanley explains his recent move to Canada and calls the Trump administration’s takeover of the US government a “coup.”

The author of How Fascism Works and Erasing History: How Fascists Rewrite the Past to Control the Future is clear:

He believes the United States is currently under an authoritarian regime led by a fascist leader.

The reason Moby Dick is the most American novel ever written is because it is about a violent white man enacting a confusing revenge fantasy against a cheap source of oil.
