Lefties are radicalized by financial emergencies or institutional failures. Righties are radicalized by people being mean to them online.

all the "hes not a fascist dont call him that" mfs from the past decade been real quiet this week. perhaps because 1A has been restricted.

The mass graves discovered in Chemmani included a baby bottle, schoolbags, and children's toys among the 141 skeletons. This is yet another reminder of the terrible atrocities committed against the Tamil people. www.nbcnews.com/world/asia/w...

A friend of mine was on Charlie Kirk's "watch list" of Black professors. She received so many death and rape threats that her university offered her a security detail for the walk to class. This is Kirk's legacy. You would never know it from reading all of these legacy newspaper op-eds about him.

Huntington Beach, CA - As Patriot Front, Ryan Sanchez and Neo-Nazi groups are leaving they began to pummel one man in a leather jacket, who told me he was there to mourn Kirk but “hated Nazis.” Attackers include members of the GDL and Robert Wheldon.

the only people on the left upset are the influencers and i think their audiences should wake up from their parasocial relationships and see what side they're really on.

When a mile-wide tornado hit St. Louis, the entire back wall of DeAmon White's house was blown off. The third floor of his mother's home was gone. The next morning, at 8 am, the phone calls started: Would he be interested in selling his home? @grist.org

I think most people think this acts as an accelerant to an already ongoing process, not the event that starts the process itself.

now is an excellent time to wedge the republicans on gun control.

"'I haven’t seen it, no.' I handed him a printout of the letter so he could take a look. 'Oh, that’s not his signature,' Moreno said immediately. I was surprised by how rapidly Moreno switched from professing ignorance of the card to claiming it was a forgery" www.thebulwark.com/p/how-to-eva...

I'm sorry but if you take money from a source to push partisan talking points and don't readily disclose that to your audience OF COURSE you are going to destroy your credibility -- ESPECIALLY if that source is dictating or limiting your work. I'm not sure how anyone considers that up for debate.

A small ceremony for all possible worlds

of course i would rant at my landlord for not providing fiber optic internet to my apartment and making me settle with a cable line; im such a cartoon of myself atp

Today’s Executive Order creating a *nationwide* military “quick reaction force” and setting up an online portal to permit random fascist vigilantes to join soldiers is one of the scariest things I’ve seen in U.S. politics in my adult life. Why is it not getting more attention?

Sam Altman: I see humans achieving omnipotence using dark matter by… 2030 maybe? That’s if OpenAI is given a quadrillion dollars Theo Von: Yeah Altman: Or, we may become a race of slaves, genetically modified to be harvested by robot spiders. That’s if OpenAI doesn’t get the money Von: Right

please read this painful, beautiful testimony I’m trying not to be a nag but it arrived on my TL below some editorial being shared for rage bait and like. we could share things like this instead. not “we can do both” miss me with that. trash smell will always overpower what’s good when we “do both”

this is literally donald trump and rfk jr, the us president and his top health official

So this is pretty terrible, not just because ChatGPT was like "thing that sounds like a signal of an emergency condition? ha ha ha just treat the symptoms." There's also the fact that this guy is on Medicaid and couldn't get an appointment with a medical professional and so asked ChatGPT.

we hit all of these in less than six months. and its going to get worse before (if) it gets better

Oakland cops gave ICE license plate data; SFPD also illegally shared with feds
