The NVIDIA-OpenAI deal has zero impact on our financial relationship with OpenAI. We remain highly confident in OpenAI’s ability to raise funds and meet its commitments.

@ferosoriano Es doloroso oír/leer tanta burla del otro en lugar de un enfoque más gentil para mostrar por qué es importante educarnos sobre las historias oscuras. Ya es doloroso enterarse de que hoy hay dos marchas diferentes. En momentos en que no podemos permitirnos estar tan divididos.

The entire western liberal worldview is currently balanced on the ability to psychologically compartmentalize away from the mass atrocities in Gaza and what western governments are doing to perpetuate them.

Everything that mainstream liberals claim to oppose is on full display in Israel's actions in Gaza. Racism. Fascism. Tyranny. Injustice. Genocide. Yet they must necessarily avoid throwing themselves into opposing these things there at all cost, because it would mean acknowledging that their own political allegiances are inseparably interwoven with them. It would mean turning against Biden during an election year. It would mean admitting that their entire political posture against Trump all these years has been a phony performance, because they're tacitly endorsing all the things they claimed to hate about him. It would mean admitting their entire worldview is a lie, and that all their critics to their left have been correct.

The western liberal is therefore engaged in an exhausting regimen of nonstop mental gymnastics to avoid having a real relationship with Gaza in the year 2024. They squirm this way and that, twisting their gaze toward empty nonsense like Barbie movie Oscar snubs and Trump's latest instance of verbal diarrhea to avoid looking at what's happening. On those odd occasions when they are forced to confront the reality of Gaza they start spouting gibberish about how "complicated" and "heartbreaking" it is and how they hope there can be peace as soon as possible, while frenetically avoiding saying precisely how that "peace" should be brought about.

Gaza exposes the mainstream western liberal ideology for the kayfabe performance it always has been. The job of the so-called liberal "moderate" has never been to oppose racism, fascism, tyranny, injustice or genocide, their job is to perpetually give the thumbs-up to one head of the two-headed monster that is the murderous western empire. Their job is to help put a positive spin on a globe-spanning power structure that is fueled by human blood. To help elect Bidens and Starmers and Trudeaus and Albaneses who will ensure that the gears of the empire keep on turning completely unhindered while paying lip service to human rights and social justice.

The one faint glimmer of brightness in this profoundly dark chapter in human history is that it might start opening some eyes to the fraudulence of the mainstream fake-left political faction that has been marketed to the western public as an alternative to far right depravity. That westerners might start awakening to the reality that everything they've been trained to believe about politics, their government and their world is a lie. Such an awakening would be the first step toward a mass-scale movement into health.

THIS not war. This is #GazaGenocide

Israel is destroying another hospital in Gaza and it’s so normal now they don’t even have to lie about it being a Hamas headquarters.

We demand an immediate ceasefire. We demand justice. And we demand an end to the occupation of Palestine.

In something out of a dystopian horror movie, Israel is using quadcopter drones to open fire on families in tents and crowds of Palestinians desperately seeking food, recently massacring 40 at once https://t.co/xmmCSkbFOS

Israeli soldiers attacked peaceful protesters in the US with chemical weapons. Feels like this should be a bigger story.

[Geopolitical Economy Report @GeopoliticaEcon]

Israel's genocidal war has made Gaza one of the most heavily bombed areas in human history.

Ex-ambassador Craig Murray: 'The world has been jolted, suddenly. Masks have been ripped off. Almost the entire political Establishment of the West have outed themselves as enthusiastic proponents of a racial supremacism, prepared to give active assistance to a genocide of indigenous people.'

As Murray also notes: 'Every single state in the world has a positive duty to intervene to prevent the Genocide in Gaza now' by invoking the Genocide Convention – even before an international court has had time to officially determine that a genocide is being carried out. This was made clear in a judgment by the International Court of Justice in 2007 regarding Bosnia and Serbia.

People always wonder how the Holocaust happened.

Why did people look away? How could they let that sort of industrialized genocidal slaughter take place? How could so many remain silent, even supportive?

Now we know how it happened. Gaza is showing us the answer to all of those questions.

@ferosoriano Bueno, en estos momentos fumonas como yo estamos muy agradecidas por el trabajo inmenso detrás de tu importante y hermoso libro sobre la planta

Message I just received from an Israeli friend in Israel: "We need your urgent help. If there is no international intervention, we're gone. The entire Palestinian people are under a genocidal attack, and democratic Jews in Israel are under violent fascist persecution that increasingly resembles the junta regimes of the 1970s in Latin America.
Help us!"
