One Generation Runs the Country. The Next Cashed In on Crypto. Sons of top Trump administration officials made billions for their families, but their investors didn’t always fare so well.

"While his father Steve Witkoff acts as President Trump’s all-purpose special envoy, 32-year-old Zach Witkoff now heads up World Liberty, which has doled out at least $1.4 billion to both families"

Hoffe er macht einen guten Job. Aber was er auf jeden Fall schon mal echt gut macht, ist die Kommunikation, oder?

Pretty clever strategy: put soldiers on the street but with hot beverages instead of guns, support peaceful protests and create an atmosphere that make ice look even more thuggish…

One of the hardest things to do is bring campaign-level communications to the work of governance, and snowstorms are notoriously one of the biggest litmus tests that less-engaged voters use to judge mayoral administrations. This is an excellent way to communicate.

While US tech giants chase #AGI, we can learn from Taiwan a much human goal: Augmented Collective Intelligence!

Audrey Tang, first digital minster of Taiwan, has crazy ideas like "AI should counter human flaws, not exploit them". Or a "geothermal democracy" which channels outrage.

I like crazy! πŸ‘

The pace of humanoid robotics in China this year has been staggering. πŸ€–πŸ‡¨πŸ‡³

Jan: 2025 Gala dance (H1) March: World-first G1 side-flip Dec: Fluid, AI-learned motions in live concerts

2025 is officially the year robots stopped moving like machines. πŸ“ˆπŸš€

Sure. But maybe leave this decision to the Chinese.

And again: start rallying against all the bad sides of our system. There so much change needed and luckily it is not illegal. So, let’s go!

You said rallies are outright illegal. They are not πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ

Just one last piece of advice: stop lecturing the Chinese about how bad their system is and start realizing how bad our own is. And then maybe begin rallying against it. If you are right about participation, you might change something. Good luck

I never said anything about protest size. You did. And you are lying to yourself when you believe your own participation myth.

Chinese have a much more realistic, pragmatic view of their government than you. But also higher expectations. That answers your initial question. πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ
