nvm they texted back

Amazon just fired everyone in Quebec & shut down all warehouses because they unionized. There is no way in hell that companies like that are building robots & AI because they want to liberate humanity from slavery.

ai isn’t inevitable, they just want you to think that so you integrate it into your life so much that you find it hard to do basic tasks on your own then they start charging you for it ppl said that nfts were the inevitable future too til it flopped + everyone saw it was a scam

Small wins for democracy. After public outrage, Malawi Government🇲🇼 trimmed VP Justice Dr Jane Ansah SC’s entourage down from 16 to 5, budget chopped from $1.3m to $84k. Good. Now clarity, please. Why are taxpayers paying for a “private trip”? If it’s public, disclose the mission. Simple.

“So you’re telling me the people that are causing the death and destruction of the planet are all congregated in one place tonight?”

This is a dangerous response. Cheering the illegal abduction of a foreign head of state and celebrating U.S. control over another country is wrong. Canada cannot pick & choose when international law applies. If the rules only matter when it’s convenient, they don’t protect anyone

you guys really want the nuance that you refuse to give the rest of the world. get bent.

Smarter people have articulated this before but the Gaza Genocide prefigured all of this violence. What Gaza asked of all of us was how much horror we were willing to ignore, and it the answer was “a lot”. All of this (ICE, Venezuela, etc) is downstream of that complacency.

I study authoritarianism for a living, so I do not say this lightly: America isn't facing an authoritarian future. America is living an authoritarian present. (A long 🧵) /1

Sorry, we've just lived through over 2 years of witnessing a livestreamed genocide, funded and supported by the West with money, weapons, and rhetoric. We've not been able to stop the suffering. But in our helpless state, we told ourselves that we'll never let people like you

former head of the Canadian central bank talking about the versatility and use of the yuan for international finance and trade. dollar hegemony is coming to an end

I doubt this was intentional, but Trump invading Venezuela right before he ramped up the rhetoric on annexing Greenland was perfect timing, because he exposed the hypocrisy and diminished the credibility of the people who are outraged by the latter and yet mute about the former.

Davos is always brilliant, the richest people in the world get together and listen to academic talks with titles like "Do Poor People Really Need ALL Their Organs?" or "How Sleep-Replacement Tech is Boosting Worker Efficiency", then go off and eat a Michelin star lunch and never

People out here acting like Mark Carney is Che Guevara. That’s *not* the takeaway, folks.

This💯. Education is like immunisation. A country only eliminates certain diseases once almost everyone has been vaccinated. Same thing, you do not want a country where only 2 out of 10 people are educated. You won't be able to move economically, socially or politically x.com/wmnjoya/status…

This video alone perfectly encapsulates this fucking decade.

I think a lesson here, too, is to actually fucking listen to overpoliced communities. They live this experience long before it escalates to a point where the colour of your skin no longer protects you. The marginalized always live the cracks that exist in a democracy before

We have such a problem when the Epstein files are understood as a bunch of perverted men with unacceptable sexual desires when it's about ultimate expressions of power, compromat, the planned demise of democracy and rituals to bind members of the elite class to one another.

I’m fond of Canadians who love many things about this country but balance that love with the recognition that we share a lot of the same systems of oppression with the United States and can’t simply reduce everything to Canada good, America bad.
