I'm in love with the opening for "Tiempos Hibridos", a Mexican indie animated series project by Beto Irigoyen.

Just listened to a clip of Jason Calacanis talking about how most tech companies now "support Trump on various endeavors" with the exception of Anthropic and "this is america you're allowed to have an opinion BUT! This administration takes things personally, and they're full contact."

The overall thesis of the clip as I understood it was "Anthropic is a bunch of Democrats, they hate Trump, Trump hates them back. Why isn't Dario doing the thing all the other tech leaders are doing? Of course Trump is fucking with them."

OK.

I think it's fair to say that the average person would say that Jason Calacanis is more of a capitalist than me. Certainly he's made much more money than me and his job title contains the word "capitalist."

But what Jason is talking about being the new structural quality of the American economy here is not capitalism.

If the President of the United States picks OpenAI to win the AI race even though Anthropic's tech is better, that's not "Oh, y'know, this administration takes things personally!" shrug.

That's actually not capitalism anymore...it's a pretty well-understood different system called oligarchy. That becomes very obvious if you just replace any of the characters in the story with names you don't recognize.

Just in case it needs saying, oligarchy sucks. It is bad for innovation and bad for economies and bad for consumers and ultimately also often (eventually) very bad for the oligarchs! This is why we're supposed to be apalled when our leaders start actively encouraging oligarch-like behavior.

Because, look...funny thing about capitalism that I've noticed...most capitalists (there are some exceptions) have no real ideological allegiance to capitalism. They don't /want/ to compete. Competing is annoying, it's hard, you can very easily lose!

If they can make more money by getting the state to protect them than they can by innovating and competing, they will absolutely pick state protection.

Most capitalists will happily become oligarchs. Their allegiance isn't to any particular system, it's to margin.

Now, people to my left will say that oligarchy is, in fact, the final form of capitalism...it's where capitalism will inevitably ends up. I don't believe this because of how we have lots of examples of capitalist countries that are not oligarchies.

But watching it happen in my country (and watching influential capitalists shrug as it does) doesn't strengthen my position!

It is honestly kinda astounding to see such a staunch pro-market guy just say, "the administration is full-contact, Dario needs to play ball." We all get that that's not a defense of markets, right?

It's a defense of one guy distorting a market because he dislikes any power that is not his power. If you find yourself defending that, it is possibly because you, yourself, strive to be an oligarch. Be real careful with that. You can follow your incentives into an evolutionary dead-end. It happens all the time.

I've just been thinking about it all morning. Just a real jaw dropper.

lo poco que se valora lo buena que era la animación 3d de código lyoko teniendo en cuenta que se trata de una serie infantil de 2003 francesa con poco presupuesto

FTP: LAPD killed her dog. He was wearing his Knicks jersey.
His name was Jameson. A golden doodle. One of the sweetest, most gentle breeds alive.
A neighbor called a noise complaint. That's it.
20+ officers showed up. Then a helicopter. For a noise complaint in an apartment complex.
And they shot Jameson dead. In front of his owner. In front of her child.
No warning. No de-escalation. Nothing.
The media is barely covering this. No headlines. No outrage.
Like it never happened.
If this was your dog... your child watching... how would you feel?
Jameson deserved better. That little boy deserved better. His mama deserved better.

Su tragedia es que su historia y mecanismos de defensa fueron potenciados por el contexto del circo. Lo que le hizo a Ribbit fue consecuencia de su propio daño, y ella no pudo recurrir a nadie más. Todo nos dice que es tan importante dar ayuda como pedirla.

Jax es un gran ejemplo de la idea: "la gente herida es la que daña a la gente". No justifica sus acciones, y tampoco se "merecía" su destino. Lamentablemente no podía ser de otra manera. [Cont.]

does anyone have an unpopular jax opinion

[Anonymous @YourAnonNews]

Elon vowed to cure world hunger if the World Food Program could outline a plan to do so for 6 billion. They did, and Elon did absolutely nothing, and has become the world's first trillionaire.

This man also systematically dismantled the US' foreign aid programs after this time. So not only did he not fulfil his promise, he actually deprived millions more of food, emergency healthcare and other life saving supports.

With less than .5% of his net worth he could save 10s of millions, real human lives.
He spends his days shitposting on Twitter and he was even stupid enough to tank his companies in valuation by literal 100s of billions just to call some guy a pedo, and people applaud him.
We shouldn't live in a world where millions die of hunger while others have more money than most countries. Humans have their priorities screwed up.
