Well, I was specifically addressing AI and the fuckheads who forcibly steamroll it over our lives.

But yeah, this is a systemic problem: the rich and powerful control societies (and not just capitalist societies, to be clear), and it is my personal belief that kind men don’t become rich or powerful, because becoming rich or powerful implies making someone else poorer or taking away their agency.

So if you follow the logic to its simple conclusion, the ultra-rich and ultra-powerful only get there not by being merely unkind, but by being truly evil. And this has nothing to do with the particular field they happen to be involved in.

Ohmygodohmygodohmygod! FINALLY!

I know where the woodcock, shag, tit and swallow will be tattooed…

The goals of Big Tech in general - not just AI companies - is to make money through surveillance, and collaboration with fascist governments.

I’d say they’re severely misaligned with human beings, democracy and basic decency. Which is totally unsurprising considering that all tech bros are psychopaths.

It doesn’t cost anything to try. If I was sentenced to 25 years in the slammer and $11bn in restitution, I’d try anything to lighten the sentence.

Or I’d off myself, because I’d be mortified with shame in his place. But I’m not a criminal.

Aaw, poor Sam… The fat orange pedo didn’t pardon him so he’s reaching for the next corrupt fash-bash down the street.

Because traditionally, people who used to say that were labeled crackpots and conspiracy theorists. I know because I’ve been rabidly defending my privacy since 1999 and I’ve been called that for 25 years.

Now most people have finally realized what folks like me have been saying for years has actually happened, and the barrage of crackpot-name-calling has largely stopped. But the reflex is still there, and people who talk like me still carry that stigma.

Either that or people don’t like it when you throw the naked truth in their face when it’s really unsettling, and they hate the messenger rather than confronting the message.

Threaten it to call immigration if it doesn’t pay up.

They’re waiting for their $5,000 dollar first.

And they’re probably still waiting for their $5,000 DOGE check, and their $2,000 tariff dividend check too.

But just as soon as they cash in their $12,000, they’ll whack him.

The real fools are the ones who reelected him.

In fairness, the main speaker at the Dallas midterm RNC is also a convicted sex offender and a pedophile. It’s a Republican tradition.

That’s one of the appeals of 360° photos: you have to look around to understand the scene fully 🙂

Honestly, I had no idea herons could stand feet away from ducks and not fly off immediately. they’re so easy to spook.

I was thinking things like skimming credit card numbers

You were specifically talking about pervert uses. That’s not perverted.

or some creep hearing you give you phone number to the clerk and stalking you.

That is perverted though. Touche.

Not quite:

The Facebook pervert glasses are purchased by perverts to shoot videos of their victims, and Facebook rides along to perform their privacy invasion.

Apple’s watch performs the same insane level of privacy invasion but all you get in return is a lousy text summary of what was said. Nothing to jack off on or blackmail someone with like with the Facebook spectacles.

The Turd Reich was born that day.

Sieg Heil!

That’s the nice proposition. When the bribery doesn’t work, the ICE goons will swarm the streets.

George Orwell only made two mistakes:

• He was off by 42 years
• The surveillance is conducted by the private sector in cahoots with the fascist state for profit rather than directly by the state.

Sigh

When will the media and the Democrats understand?

There will be no midterms.

Either ICE will scare everybody away from the polls, the postal service will burn all the democratic ballots, or Trump will straight up declare the election rigged, null and void and declare martial law or some shit.

How do I know that?

Because Trump behaves EXACTLY as if the midterms didn’t matter.

If he expected a fair election - let alone any election at all - he would endeavor to win people over to the Republican side. And every-fucking-thing he does achieves the exact opposite. He has dementia and he’s not smart, but he’s smart enough to know that. Yet he doesn’t care.

Students who plan on cheating on the test don’t study. And you wonder why they don’t study and look all cool and casual about it, right up until the time they take the test and you see them pull out the cheat sheet under the table.

That’s Trump: he doesn’t intend to take the midterm test fairly. I guarantee you that. And he has the power of the presidency.

I pity the poor Tesla owners who bought their car when Elon still pretended to be a progressive. But anybody who bought one post Sieg Heil, and particularly a Cybertruck, can fuck right off.
