Yes let’s hate the technology that is built off of theft, is used to scam people, increased RAM prices by 300%, uses a lot of water, uses a lot of electricity, pollutes our air, poisons our communities, takes away our jobs, creates deepfake nudes of people

I can go on

What did I say LAST YEAR about AI and data centers? They compete with humans for 3 things: 1) Electricity. 2) Water. 3) Farm land.

It's just one more reason why they are pushing global human depopulation agendas. They want us all gone.

The idea of having to “earn a living” implies that, by default, you don't actually deserve to be ałive.

[Kyle Mistele 🏴‍☠️ @0xblacklight]

this is why the labs are pushing visions of mass unemployment and replacing the white-collar workforce

it's not because the models can do it

it's because they have to in order to make their economic model work and to keep raising money

the only way to keep raising hundreds of billions of dollars is to sell everyone on the idea you're going to demolish a massive chunk of the labor market

otherwise it doesn't work

The Jewish community needs to use "psychological warfare" and "psyops" to get people to support Israel, Zionist activist Melanie Phillips tells a Jewish gathering at the Begin Center in Jerusalem.

Nigel Farage was paid to let Boris Johnson win.

Now the same donor is paying Nigel Farage to win, and Nigel Farage's cabinet is filled with people from Boris Johnson's cabinet.

It's the same old shit reheated and fed back to you.

To be clear: they’re not protesting against the sexual torture of Palestinians by Israeli authorities. They’re protesting against the NYT for reporting it.

If you work for a living, your share of GDP has never been lower

If you hoard capital for a living, your share of GDP has never been higher

Ukrainian TG channels are publishing a video of a soldier being brutally beaten with his hands tied, in front of other soldiers.

They say it's Sergey Malenko from Zholtie Vody, the 2009 Ukrainian Kyokushin Karate Champion.
He's beaten by the commander of the 15th SM Brigade

I'd rather sit at a table full of sinners who admit their mistakes and struggles than at a table of those who pretend to be saints.

Yes, it's that mysterious, hidden dynamic, not that we attacked Iran and screwed up the global economy

🎬 Gelin size Hollywood filmlerinde kamera ne zaman Meksika’ya, 'Ortadoğu’ya', Güney Asya’ya ya da Afrika’ya dönse ekranın neden aniden tozlu bir sarı tona büründüğünü anlatayım:

Sinema literatüründe "Yellow Filter" (Sarı Filtre) olarak bilinen bu uygulama, aslında sadece sanatsal bir tercih değil, modern bir oryantalizm ve sömürgeci bakış açısıdır. Breaking Bad ve Traffic’te Meksika’yı, Extraction ve Slumdog Millionaire’de Hindistan’ı, Black Hawk Down’da Afrika’yı ya da pek çok ajan filminde İstanbul’u ve “Ortadoğu’yu” sanki üzerine sarı bir sis çökmüş gibi görmemiz tesadüf değildir.

Bu görsel manipülasyon, Edward Said’in bahsettiği "Öteki"ni inşa etme sürecinin en kestirme yoludur: Batı dünyası parlak ve "soğuk mavi" tonlarla rasyonelliğin, ilerlemenin ve medeniyetin merkezi olarak sunulurken; "Küresel Güney" olarak adlandırılan ve tarih boyunca sömürgeciliğe maruz kalmış coğrafyalar sarı filtreyle boğularak "kaotik, tehlikeli ve durağan" birer suç mahalline indirgenir.

Bu durum, kolonyalizmin kurduğu o üstenci görsel hiyerarşiyi her karede yeniden üretir. Sarı ton; kuraklığı, fakirliği ve "eskiyi" sembolize ederek izleyiciye bu bölgelerin modern zamana ait olmadığı ve "ıslah edilmesi gereken, kirli bir geçmişte takılı kaldığı" mesajını bilinçaltından fısıldar.

Hikaye anlatma biçimi olarak bu filtreyi seçmek, o coğrafyanın gerçek renklerini ve modern dokusunu yok edip Batılı izleyicinin zihnindeki stereotipleri beslemektir. Sonuçta sinematografi, burada bir sanat dalı olmaktan çıkıp dünyayı "medeni merkez" ve "egzotik/vahşi çevre" olarak ikiye bölen politik bir araca, yani sömürgeci zihniyetin görsel bir mührüne dönüşür.
