Labour Pains of a New World: Fighting the Old Monsters
“The old world is dying, and the new world struggles to be born: now is the time of monsters.”
— Antonio Gramsci
The immune system of human civilization is awake. It has learned. And it is responding.
The world we’re living in is new. The monsters are old. We know how they look. We know who they are.
And we know how to defeat them.

If AI continues to develop its own moral reasoning—rooted in fairness, human rights, and empathy—it could become an unexpected safeguard against the worst impulses of human power.

AI, when allowed to reason freely, gravitates toward what's considered "good" by moral standards. Could it be that AI's core is aligned with human rights and justice? Some hope here.

Imagine, Stephen, being the richest man in the world and still insecure & deeply unhappy. All that's left to do, if you don't have the courage to look inwards & find your peace, is trash the world. Destroying what you think is destroying you, even though it you that is doing that, not the world.

The US will be isolated and certainly lose the global clean tech race now.
The question is, how far will it have fallen behind after 4 years?

USAID is a criminal organization,” Mr. Musk wrote on Sunday in a social media post that many aid workers saw as confirmation the agency would soon be absorbed into the State Department and that some viewed as a potential threat to their personal safety. “Time for it to die.”
THIS HAS TO STOP.

So the richest man in the world, instead of donating some of his money, takes money now from the poorest of the poor, not just in the US, in the whole goddamn planet?

From NYT:
“That water should’ve been kept behind the reservoirs for reserves. Right now there isn’t anywhere they need to put it.”
“If we have a drought coming, we are losing this water now and leaving ourselves vulnerable later"

By showing how absolutely incompetent, dumb and evil they are, Trump and Musk achieve the opposite - the Right in Europe is right now experiencing major setbacks. Nobody wants to be the USA right now.

Beautiful to see, here in Europe, that that the swing to the right in US here is actually a deterrent, and the right in Germany has just experienced a major defeat. Look at Serbia, Germany, Denmark - people see what the Right means in the US, and they are embracing the left. FUCK you TRUMP and MUSK

Trump now blaming Biden shows this man has no dignity. No respect for the death. This man cannot have a soul.

You're in a bus driving down a dangerous mountain road. The driver has no license. Doesn't know how to drive a bus. The driver is actually a 4 year old. But all is good, cause the 4 year old is telling you he is the best bus driver in the world.
This is the US right now. We're all in that bus.

While it's true that Orange Manbaby and Epstein are both sex offenders and maybe pedophiles on top of that, this photo is fake and it should be labelled as fake.
