  • The fact that this Econ 101 slop video has a paid promotion plus ads I forgot to block says plenty. I question its motives, which seems like rehashing cold war propaganda, as well as your smug above it framing. What do you think this video says? Why, in a material sense, do you think socialism is interesting people in imperialist countries today? I think when you talk about a middle ground, you mean between protecting the privileges we both receive from our born-in positions on the world system, and surviving the failure of capitalism to reproduce itself (it shits the bed every decade or so since 1973; we’re both probably from generations that didn’t get what we were promised)








  • I feel like People In High Places having AI psychosis (Thiel famously) opens the possibility of LLM companies giving specific individuals pre-determined answers. Allowing them to get more no-bid contracts, make extra on Kalshi, and exert undue influence without having to go through traditional methods of corruption/patronage networks in the U.S. system.

    Hegseth’s DoW using ChatGPT for target identification in Iran shows how military operations could be easily influenced, for instance.

    As others have said, it also allows blame to be thrown elsewhere. Funny how AI got so pushed right after Epstein. Any photographic evidence is suspect now.










  • That’s the thing with the SMO idea, it promises to Russian civilians that costs will be low and everyday life will not be interrupted. Which is fine if you expected a quick campaign, but given that Russia has been drawn into a proxy conflict that’s creating a lot of cash/trial grounds for western MIC by for instance launching drone attacks on civilian targets, it’s a terrible idea that becomes less and less viable.

    As the idea of creating a rump state (so that the pre 2014 order can be essentially recreated) out of all those republics RU-UA are fighting over becomes more and more delayed, the possibility of more MoD shit going off grows.
