How much more evidence do we need? The ultra-rich and the governments supporting them will destroy everything for the sake of profit, power and pride. Nothing is precious to them - not human life, not the living world - except their own wealth and status. Our survival depends on resisting them.

Will AI become smarter than humans? If so, is humanity in danger? I went to Silicon Valley to ask some of the leading AI experts that question. Here’s what they had to say:

Quit feeding the doomsday machine!

The real Dubai

The ghost Marlboro man is everywhere. I too, a recovered tech optimist, have never used a glorified search engine ai something chat chat chatter bot and will rather bathe in asbestos.

While we fend off the Trump regime's repeated lies about its attack on Iran, let's not forget that the regime is covering up FBI interviews of a woman who says Trump sexually assaulted her when she was a minor. (NYT gift link)

Oh no, not Dubai

Life imitates art. 29 years ago, Wag the Dog told the story of a US president mired in sex scandal that threatened to undermine his presidency so he decided he needed to concoct a make-believe war to boost his support.

Brainwashing, 2026 edition. This paper shows how X's algorithmic feed shifts people's views rightwards. It's a sophisticated, highly effective form of reorientation. And it is utterly chilling. If you're still on that platform, unhook yourself now. www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Fake and AI generated 'experts' are being quoted in articles in the UK press. "Out of a sample of 250 expert-quoting articles published in The Sun, Daily Express, Mirror, Daily Mail and Daily Star in 2025 and late 2024, 28 experts do not exist". pressgazette.co.uk/news/faces-o...

‘“Over the last few months, the market has clearly shifted from the ‘every tech stock is a winner’ mindset to something far more brutal: a true winners and losers landscape,” said Deutsche Bank analyst Jim Reid in a note to clients this week. Now, it looks rather like tech is “eating itself”.’

"It’s hard not to read these files and come to the conclusion that Epstein helped engineer the ultimate elite impunity — in which our society has been totally destroyed so the richest and most powerful men in the world can do whatever they want." Read more from @lopatto.bsky.social: bit.ly/4kF9C1j

"But what about China?" has been a throwaway comment made many times to justify inaction on climate change or criticise decarbonisation policies. Well China is now by far the world's largest manufacturer, installer, and user of clean energy technologies.

happening this morning in Minneapolis -- ICE agents drawing guns on observers. I reiterate again that it is only a matter of time before DHS kills more innocent people in Minnesota. Congress needs to shut this shit down right now.

I want to laugh at it but sadly it’s true.

"The rich will find ever more sophisticated ways to protect themselves. The only way to bring them down is to smash their system."

Capitalism is over? www.euronews.com/2026/02/02/c...

The Trump-Epstein-Russia connections demand far more investigation. Which is the last thing Republicans want.

The President of the United States is compromised. It is time for Congress to act. Now!

The word-guessing program!

“Technical failures, cyber-attacks and natural disasters can all bring down key parts of the internet. And as the US government makes increasing demands of European leaders, it is possible to imagine Europe losing access to the digital infrastructure provided by US firms.”

Convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein to Elon Musk in 2012: “If you find some time, come visit me on my island.” Musk to Epstein: “Sounds good, will try to make it.”

The idea that a U.S. president would threaten to invade Greenland because Norway didn’t give him a Nobel Prize is pathetic. This has nothing to do with foreign policy. It’s a president acting like a narcissistic spoiled child because his feelings got hurt. Unacceptable.

Sense of guilt, Freudian slips: he's thinking of his own ICE-land
