Reparations for the Business Victims of Lockdowns The lockdowns were and are an intolerable attack on property rights, the freedom of association, free enterprise, and basic rights of trade and exchange that have been a bedrock of a thriving economy ...

Brownstone founder Jeffrey Tucker even wrote an op-ed calling for—and this is real, I shit you not—“reparations for the business victims of lockdowns.”

Trump Is Attacking Climate Science. Scientists Are Fighting Back. It’s easy, looking at the past year, to see the damage the administration has done. But researchers are also stepping up, trying to fill the gaps.

Here, in a nutshell, is why using AI for military purposes is worse than dangerous:

If you ask it for a plan to attack something, it will never respond "that's bad idea, don't do it."

it’s wild how everyone hates Fetterman (correctly) and there’s a guy running who’s basically holding a huge I’m The Next Fetterman sign and it hasn’t slowed him down at all

They're remote control robot (not autonomous) that scans everyone's face and they sell the data for recurring income or hand it to police when necessary. You also have your face scanned when they arrive at drop off. Door Dash recently offered an opt out for these things. Make sure you check it off

I'm also going to suggest a compare and contrast the softly-softly treatment of Graham Platner with the microscopic scrutiny Zohran Mamdani was subject to when from the nano-second he became a serious contender for a high-profile local government post.

This is a bombshell: "the Pentagon wanted the company to allow for the collection and analysis of unclassified, commercial bulk data on Americans, such as geolocation and web browsing data"

This kind of agenda echoes the defunded Total Information Awareness effort, post-9/11

States Can Block the Paramount-Warner Deal - The American Prospect But thanks to some clever maneuvering, they are already running out of time.

States could challenge the Paramount-Warner Bros. merger even after the feds bless it, but by then, the two giants would have made that very difficult. The best option is for the California Attorney General to file a lawsuit before they can clinch a deal.

The Truth About Roundup Herbicide For decades Roundup has been sold as an effective herbicide, one that was safe for humans and the environment. It isn't.

Companies like Bayer have to protect their product and their profit even if they have to tell a few lies to do so.

This is what it looks like when fascists successfully take over an institution.

This is the aesthetic of American fascism and state capture all in one.
