Grokipedia and the Coup Against Reality Itself Grokipedia, the copycat of Wikipedia launched by Elon Musk isn’t just a string of AI generated slop, it is a weapon. The launch of "grokipedia" is a calculated, strategic escalation by the billionaire...

I wrote about how "Grokipedia" is a new front on the war against reality itself. It's an attempt by the oligarchic class to seize the means of knowledge production itself and create a weaponized unreality.

The depth of the shame of a country this wealthy and abundant allowing its people to go hungry is impossible to measure. The fact that a handful of people could fix this by paying their fair share of taxes while still remaining obscenely wealthy makes it even worse.

This is several days old. But amidst so much else id missed it. That’s a stunning number. No wonder they about-faced. Reminder of the power of consumers in oligarch era, not subject to the same kind of targeting.

dear US friends, when a sitting president (re)builds the seat of government, it almost always means the president has no intention of leaving at the end of term. your African friends with decades of experience

Trump cancels plans to send federal troops to San Francisco for immigration crackdown Mayor Daniel Lurie says he spoke with Trump as protesters took to streets in anticipation of a large-scale deployment

These bullies are cowards! Fight back!

Why is Apple, Microsoft, Lockheed Martin, Blackstone, Google, OpenAI, Amazon and others financing the destruction of the WH and desecration of the grounds, something that is infuriating to huge chunk of the American population? Do you hate your customers that much?

I keep seeing Dems blamed for this guy's candidacy and I just want to point out that less than a week ago the complaint was that Dems weren't backing him. This is a case study in how easy it is to manipulate recent history.

to keep functioning a society must discourage baldfaced lying, especially by authorities

There are a lot of things that Trump smashing up the White House might remind you of. For me: Trump smashing up Congress via his volunteer thug army.

The White House is asking people not to share pictures of the East Wing because it’s even worse today.

Graham Platner actually lost me when he apologized for saying white people are racist and the inability to understand that is the real problem with the Democratic Party right now.

Perhaps the moral of the story is to take racism seriously.

Sure glad that the careful approach of Merrick Garland and Lisa Monaco RESTORED NORMS to the Department of Justice.

To be clear: deportations to increase cultural homogeneity is the text book definition of ethnic cleansing. Demands that come even close to this are so far outside any democratic norm and the rule of law. What has happened to a country when this is not condemned in the strongest possible terms?

Peter Diamandis tweets: "800,000 layoffs in 2025. 10,000 in September alone tied to AI. Jobs are disappearing fast. But here’s the truth no one wants to say: It’s the start of a new gold rush... for those who learn how to build with the machines, not fight them." Elon Musk replies: "Working will be optional in the future. There will be universal high income."

man who tried to slash social security spending promises communism is coming if you just ignore the enormous job losses this year due to the technology he's developing for private profit

Good to get official confirmation — basically everything happening in Chicago right now is being coordinated by Gregory Bovino, the Border Patrol Chief who started doing indiscriminate raids even before Biden left office, because he knew he could get away with it.

"everyone is mad at me and that's good" is one of the most poisonous inventions of the social media era

something very strange about how eagerly americans will consume content talking about how bad fascism is as it encroaches but any discussion on how to actually organize against it sends people into fits of rage.

The president of the United States posted a video of him defecating on the American people. Many in my profession normalized it. This is a big reason why we are where we are.

AI needs Fascism And Fascism needs AI

AI needs fascism, and fascism needs AI.

We have to fight this nexus of Big Tech and the fascist regime.

Together they’ve formed a deadly alliance against democracy, and against the working class.

Ray Bradbury’s Fahrenheit 451 was published OTD in 1953.

“Remember, the firemen are rarely necessary. The public itself stopped reading of its own accord.”

For context, Lima is where the KKK fled after being chased out of Akron in the 1930s. It's one of the reddest places in the state.

I feel that some of you need regular reminders of how unpopular this man is. And frankly I see him getting even more so as the economy worsens. Again, this doesn't mean that he will give up any power but it does mean that WE HAVE POWER TOO.

This is also part of the problem. There's definitely a contigent of Black folks who find value in having automatic translation of these systems. One thing that kept so many fights alive was the inlegibility of people to colonialists (and the State).
