Freedom from fossil fuels is a step towards a peaceful world.

That's why the warmongering sociopath class hate renewables

I regularly come back to Sarah Kendzior’s expert advice that the Trump administration is a β€œtransnational crime syndicate masquerading as a government” and cannot shake the thought that on multiple fronts New Zealand is behaving as if we would like in on that racket.

Screenshot of a social media post by a verified account named David Seymour reading, β€œOur dinner for Persian freedom fighters was well timed. Let freedom reign this time.” Below the text is a photo of a dining table set with plates, glasses, and a vase of flowers beside large glass doors. Outside the doors hang several green-white-red flags with lion-and-sun emblems. A folded cloth sits on a countertop in the foreground.

Let's not forget that Seymour called New Zealand's first Iranian born member of parliament, a woman whose parents fled the regime as dissidents, a "menace to freedom" resulting in her needing extra security as threats increased

He directed contributed to her being hounded out of public life

Dean Ball wrote Trump's AI plan. πŸ‘€

You know the one all the AI bros were so excited about and for which they thought it was so important to back Trump to get.

Anthropic employees just learned the hard way that when a company makes a promise, it's worthless if the workers don't have the power to fire the CEO when they break the promise

Corporations will always choose profit over safety unless the workers use their power to keep them accountable

hey so this is being delivered in the context of ICE

we’re seeing that narrative play out across the west. and cabinet ministers, like Peters, have been specifically attacking immigrants

this needs to be treated incredibly seriously as a human rights & civil liberties breach

Anyway, the solution is worker co-ops but nobody wants to hear that because it doesn't have a $50B valuation and a guy in a Patagonia vest doing a TED talk about it

Corporations when they launch: πŸ₯Ί we just want to help people

Corporations 18 months later: lol, don't you know what a fiduciary obligation is?

Lol, The cycle continues...

OpenAI: "we will save humanity" β†’ humanity are lame robots

Facebook: "connecting people πŸ₯°" β†’ ... to radicalising AI slop!

Google: "don't be evil" β†’ ok but what if evil was REALLY profitable tho

Anthropic: "we're the *safe* ones πŸ₯ΊπŸ‘‰πŸ‘ˆ" β†’ lmao sike

I'm actually surprised Harris's team recognised that their Gaza position was a problem, even if they realised it too late.

It puts them a step above Hipkins' and his team who still think the problem was they didn't do enough nothing

If you believe you or a loved one is suffering from dollar derangement syndrome, seek help from your local leftist community today to get a more balanced perspective of the human experience.

In extreme cases it can lead to:
❌ Being unable to recognise the intrinsic value of human life
❌ Firing your safety team because they waste $ on "preventing harm to children"
❌ Becoming the CEO of a company that's rapidly building the very same tech that you claim will of wipe out humanity

Dollar derangement syndrome is a debilitating condition suffered by many senior executives causing them to obsess over dollars, often completely eclipsing their ability to value humanity or the rich beauty of the world beyond how many dollars they can personally make from them.

❓Do you think humans are basically really inefficient robots?
❓Is working with the department of war a good thing as long is it's profitable?
❓Do you believe that autocomplete could become sentient if only it was powered by enough computers in space to block out the sun?

PSA: Do you suffer from dollar derangement syndrome?

If you answered yes to any of the following questions, you could be a victim of it's humanity destroying effects...

when you have only so much cognitive energy to expend, you don’t necessarily want to spend it explaining your new chronic illness to someone who maintains covid is over

The same way we ended up threatening their lives with guns, cyberbullying, air pollution, health care failures, long covid, the climate crisis, and poverty:

A corporation profited by it

Yeah, I remember watching the Rise of Skywalker with the kids recently and my wife and I were both like "this is if an undo button wrote a script"

The "pro life" party infected a baby they kidnapped and then dumped it across the border.

These people are moral black holes

I hate AI and so much of what it stands for, but I increasingly worry that this is true

At every technological revolution in my lifetime, the left has been left behind, leaving the right with monopoly ownership and control of the dominant systems of information

RIP Rev. Jesse Jackson

There are going to be a lot of tributes to his activism, so I'm choosing to remember how much he crushed hosting SNL
