Let me trace the timeline here because nobody's connecting it.
Step 1: Scrape the entire internet. Every book, every article, every conversation, every piece of art, every forum post. Do it without asking. Do it without paying.
Step 2: Train a model on all of it. Call it "artificial intelligence."
Step 3: Go to BlackRock's Infrastructure Summit and announce: "We see a future where intelligence is a utility, like electricity or water, and people buy it from us on a meter."
Step 3 is where you sell people's own knowledge back to them. On a meter.
They took the collective output of human thought, compressed it into a model, and now they want to charge you by the token to access a version of what you and everyone you know already created.
One Reddit user put it perfectly: "They stole all this data from us, the people, our life's work, creativity, art, by devouring the internet and blowing through all copyright laws. Now they want to sell it back to us in the form of a utility."
Imagine if someone photocopied every book in the public library, burned the library down, and then opened a subscription service for the copies.
That's the metered intelligence business model.
And they're pitching it to infrastructure investors as though they invented water.
In every single country that passed age verification laws:
1) databases got leaked
2) innocent websites got censored
3) governments became more censorship heavy
4) protests became more criminalized
5) information got harder to find
This is Cherise Doyley.
She was 12 hours into labor when a nurse told her to cover up with a bedsheet.
Then a tablet appeared at her bedside.
On the screen: a judge. Lawyers. Hospital staff.
She hadn’t asked for a hearing. The hospital had.
Doyley is a professional birthing doula. She refused a C-section — she’d had three before, and one left her hemorrhaging. She knew the risks.
It didn’t matter.
And here’s the part people should pay attention to.
The state filed an emergency petition. She had minutes to prepare. No lawyer. No advocate.
A three-hour hearing. In the middle of active labor.
A judge decided how she would give birth.
This is the fetal personhood movement, fully realized.
And it’s already happening. To Black women. In Florida.
Read the full @ProPublica investigation.
“A judge decided how she would give birth.
That’s legal right now.
Should it be?

Marilyn usó sus privilegios como mujer blanca y exigió que ella fitzgerald tocara siempre en un club donde no se permitían negros. Es una falta de respeto compararla con una estúpida racista.
But it does though. Y’all couldn’t boycott Stranger Things either. I’m really sick of spineless idiots who put dumb shit before human rights. If you really had to watch it that bad you can 🏴☠️
Argentinian affected by the Patagonia forest fires:
"We're no longer shocked. We know it's intentional. There are powers involved. They have real estate and mining interests. They don't even try to hide it anymore because they have everything on their side."
i was born in the right generation i love trans people and abortions and telling men to shut the fuck up and migrants and birth control and being openly gay and fighting fascism except that part’s always been around and smoking weed and smashing the patriarchy and
