The GBD libertarians declare victory

A lot of leftists/socialists seem confused by the notion that capital *wants* us disabled or dead. Don't they need healthy workers? Isn't it better for them to keep us alive and paying them than killing us off? But the economic situation is shifting.

The simple, honest public health messaging we should’ve seen everywhere from early on in the pandemic. Instead—as with almost every other aspect of modern life—profits & politics were put before people & their health. Protect yourself from #COVID to preserve your long term health.

The Shutdown of U.S.A.I.D. Has Already Killed Hundreds of Thousands The short documentary “Rovina’s Choice” tells the story of what goes when aid goes.

One analytical model shows that, as of November 5th, the dismantling of U.S.A.I.D. has already caused the deaths of 600,000 people, two-thirds of them children. https://newyorkermag.visitlink.me/jUzNSc

I'm very compelled, in a gapers' delay staring in uncomprehening horror sort of way, by how people who are in important respects decent individuals manage to just avoid thinking about the harms baked into this stuff that they boost.

DHS Gives Local Cops a Facial Recognition App To Find Immigrants The app, called Mobile Identify and available on the Google Play Store, is specifically for local and regional law enforcement agencies working with ICE on immigration enforcement.

We've found DHS is giving local cops a new facial recognition app to find immigrants. Point camera at face, tells the cop to detain person or not. The app is available on Google's Play Store. Google took down apps that report ICE sightings but now hosts this app

Australian scientist who alerted world that Covid is airborne wins top science prize Prof Lidia Morawska says recognition of her research comes at a fraught time – an ‘age of anti-science’

Australian scientist who alerted world that COVID is airborne wins top science prize

When the WHO falsely claimed in March 2020 that COVID wasn’t airborne, Professor Lidia Morawska took action—organising 239 scientists worldwide to warn about SARS-CoV-2 airborne spread and urge global recognition.

This is, pardon my language, FUCKING BULLSHIT! @leximcmenamin.com is a top tier journalist who had a great interview with Mamdani THIS WEEKEND!!! The kind the NYT could never do. It’s bullshit of Anna Wintour to destroy the TV politics desk on the eve of a mayoralty they were born to cover

The correct unit of municipal budget analysis is not dollars but "Cost of Policing (CoP) days/hours"

You take total money spent on cops over the year (including OT and settlements) and divide by 365 to get one CoP day

Comment on a linked in post, from user Kurtis Loken who presents themself as "Experienced Metrology Engineer | AI/ML real world experience | Patented Solutions | R&D | Mass Production" Comment reads: Emily M. Bender You are a linguist. LLMs have proven some theories disproved others about how language works. I would think that would be an amazing time to be a linguist. Have you ever actually talked to an AI…I mean really talked to one? The Turing test has been passed. (Sonnet 4.5 has particularly impressed me when discussing ideas with it…definitely has passed my own Turing test.) I would really love to see a conversation between yourself and it discussing your views. That would make a great podcast. Have these models explain to you why your idea to ban them may or may not be a good idea. These things probably have their own opinions on the topic if someone would listen to them. Maybe that’s you?

Every day it feels more and more like a zombie apocalypse over on LinkedIn, in which you start a conversation with someone who you hope is an ordinary person and then a couple of turns in discover that they have surrendered their brains to the "AI" mass delusion.

I really can't emphasize enough that OpenAI is, as Dr. Gilliard has described in the past, a social arsonist enabling racism, and I urge colleagues in education using OpenAI's products - including ed-tech platforms that incorporate its products like Khanmigo and MagicSchool - to stop.

this is so so insane the ILLINOIS STATE POLICE are lining up LIKE THIS against clergy and people dressed as the Kool-Aid man.

We are disappearing human beings to forced labor camps or worse and the majority of white Americans continues to act as though it’s fine to keep taking the enormous privileges of being American without lifting a finger or even a voice to make it stop human trafficking, mass murder, and war crimes.

for watching if you missed and would like a dose of the kind of attentive, attuned brilliance that makes hope possible in times like these

great news for anyone whose youtube channel is the only footage in existence of someone who died tragically and is a load-bearing part of the memorial process for their loved ones. it's been 15 years, idiot. time to accept your dead child's face existing only for wombo dot ai's pleasure

This was just posted by a CBS News producer on their Instagram stories.

Zohran Mamdani caught lying that he understood Plato’s allegory of the cave, yet when asked to explain it, he seemed to instead explain Baudrillard’s theory of Simulacra and Simulation where reality has been replaced by symbols and signs, which seems similar to Plato’s theory but is not the same

Vaccine subterfuge: How vaccine-makers fooled the Nazis from inside a concentration camp lab Confined first at Auschwitz then Buchenwald, a Jewish microbiologist conspired with a ragtag team of scientists and rebels to send dud typhus vaccines to the German soldiers on the eastern front.

Gonna talk in entomology class today about how Jewish scientists forced to work in Nazi concentration camps secretly sent fake vaccines to the eastern front and managed to kill 4,000 Nazis with typhus.

"Nothing ever dies; everything is infinite. We've been taught a watered-down version of what "time and space" is, that we're in a three-dimensional reality, which we are not. We're in a multidimensional reality."

re: trump polling at only -3 on crime, I want to once again remind everyone that we have *virtually zero* visibility on what is happening the personal belongings and property of every immigrant that is black bagged and disappeared. The apartments, homes, and businesses that are found empty.

Yet another example of anti-communism as an explicit propaganda tool of fascism.

The cold war embedded anti-communist ideology throughout American culture, so many folks have some brainworms about Marxism.

as an Anarchist, i encourage you to work through those now. solidarity is how we win.

We are producing a detailed podcast series about this whole time period in Italy. This was part of a wider movement called self-reduction, whereby workers and local working class people would choose their own prices for many goods and services, and enforce them with strength in numbers.

It cannot get lost in the shuffle, even with so much else going on, that the world's most wealthy people have had their minds absolutely rotted out, just saturated to the dripping point with black mold down to the studs and frame, by the all encompassing unhumanity of their wealth.

Americans need to reconcile that this is pretty much what the Obama-era drone strikes were. Any time a prior administration abused its power and it was greeted by a shrug because “we’re the good guys” - this is why you shouldn’t do that.

can someone please just run this as an ad?
