Our collective task is not to save tech but to save us, our world. The resonant computing manifesto is too focused on means and not on ends. And that's basically the core issue. The belief in technological determinism.

i've been trying to see what the right wing platforms (even outside of X) are showing people regarding the protests in LA and i am not sure it can be overstated just how much the AI slop is being used to reinforce the idea that downtown is a post-apocalyptic war zone

They've called him a human trafficker, a violent criminal, a convicted gang member... and they refuse to give you even a SINGLE piece of evidence! Bondi even suggests here ALL they have is the gang worksheet from 2019 filled out by a disgraced cop caught selling secrets for sex!

Ever more ways to disempower citizens and empower oligarchs with citizens’ personal data www.wired.com/story/palant...

Data rights are human rights

Also this fucker doesn’t get to decide our fate and neither does Trump; the Congress (we the people) still get to decide our own fate. Winning the presidency doesn’t change that one bit.

Great news, everyone. A surveillance company started by Peter Thiel is part of the hackathon playing with our data at IRS. www.wired.com/story/palant...

Call it by its name: Trumpcession.

This is how it’s done.

CSPAN cut the feed after the press conference but the members of Congress and Senators have entered the main lobby where USAID HQ is located. The door is being blocked by law enforcement. Photo provided to me:

if I understand American politics correctly, progressivism is something that requires 60 senate votes to work, while national conservatism doesn’t require any votes at all

x X has ~18m daily USA users. @bsky.app, ~1.5m. Is it worth 20 MINS a day to proactively recruit and bring your friends, neighbors,relatives, businesses, anyone who is or could be a user, to @bsky.app? If Bluesky ends up with more users than the others, you destabilize musk, zuck, trump.

Wickipedia is NOT fact. It’s consensus of those who edit it and that can be anyone. Facts in books at libraries cannot be edited.

MORE please from older wiser people who have been through setbacks before….please help light the way.

MORE please from older wiser people who have been through test backs before….please help light the way.

Good Bluesky feature to know

Reposting for liberal followers

Damn….i ever thought of it that way. Maybe we should point the finger at the real problem…the demand. Say no to drugs is a better effort than the Mexicans are criminal for trying to make money off what our wealthy country demands.

Like to be included in this starter pack and then please repost and share

Hollar at me if you want me to include you in this starter pack. go.bsky.app/HTX25jN

Friends be careful subscribing to lists you may think are maga when some bad actors have actually listed True Blues and it hurts our efforts. Repost

I subscribe to “stakeholder capitalism”. Instead of the stock pricing being at the center of societal values as is with the “shareholder capitalism” we have been living under since the 80s, there are equally important stakeholders like employees, the environment, our health and education.

Always

Once again, President Biden should just use his executive official acts immunity powers to make FBI background checks mandatory and publicly disclosable for all incoming executive branch personnel.

The only way to break the cult is to go into their channels as friends. Share things like rbis to your personal social media (insta and fb and TikTok).

Back when I learned how Allied forces had German citizens watch video or work in the camps after liberation to see the atrocities, I remember wondering how this could go on and they “not know” How horrible that was to have it happen right under their noses Are we watching the groundwork happen?

I hate MSNBc for this with a passion

You CAN follow each other using the hashtag and the replies, but the EASIEST way to do so is using the Reposts button at the bottom of the tweet. Yes I know a lot of you are worried about following trolls. Few to none of them are going to share this because it would help YOU. They won't do that.

“Stakeholder capitalism” I define as more then just stock price should be at the center of main values of our society. Those include employees, environment, our health, and education. Unlike the “shareholder capitalism” we have been living under since the 1980s.

Yet another plea to people who are using or following people off follow-farming hashtags like #NoDemUnder1K, #NoDemUnder5K, #BlueCrew, #FBR, etc etc: please do not do that, it's how disinformation operations work. I'm already seeing accounts in those hashtags that are likely disinformation ops. 1/

This is fantastic

And isn’t it funny the guy buys the platform to allow free speech and he uses (or allows) bots who’s entire intention is to suppress speech. It’s so effed up.

I think we all need to take a good look in the mirror ask ourselves why we subjected ourselves to that nightmare for so long

Joyce please amplify the take that the white point of these nomination is to create chaos. Autocrats love chaos. Because then they get to “fix” things (in this case make deals to benefit T and his cronies) and usurp full power Chaos proceeds ultimate power.

The point is to create chaos. Autocrats want chaos. Then they get to “fix” things. Chaos proceeds having absolute power.

Who made this? Ahahaha
