Now we know why Peter Thiel packed his bags for Argentina.

Milei just submitted his AI legislative framework to Congress, where he proposes:
- zero regulation on AI development,
- a brand-new "non-human corporation" category for AI/robot-operated entities with limited liability
-a low-tax regime with flexible governance rules.

The Dutch East India Company gave the world the limited liability company in 1602. Milei wants Argentina to do the same for autonomous AI agents in 2026.

Non si parla più di Palestina? FALSO.

Forse certi media e politici hanno voltato pagina, ma il popolo italiano resta vigile, come testimoniano i presìdi che da oltre un anno tengono viva la coscienza collettiva.

L’immagine del giorno è questa. Quella del piccolo Ayoub Ali Junaid che in lacrime, nella sua tenda a nord di Gaza, mostra i suoi occhiali rotti. Soffre di gravi problemi alla vista.

Nel giro di 4 giorni dalla pubblicazione del video sui social, una associazione turca lo ha rintracciato, fornendogli non solo degli occhiali nuovi, ma anche un aiuto economico per completare il trattamento alla vista.

All 3 of Netanyahu’s main opponents in the next election condemned him for surrendering to the US & agreeing to a “ceasefire” in Lebanon. They say he sold out & became a “vassal state” of the US. So if you’re thinking getting rid of Netanyahu makes Israel better - think again

🚨 DISGUSTING: Al Jazeera exposes a horrifying tactic. Israel is deliberately bombing right next to Jabal Amel Hospital in Tyre to terrorize doctors.

The Washington-backed Zionist regime intentionally strikes nearby to cripple critical care without a direct hit. Pure evil!

If you think Marjane Satrapi's work is imperialist propaganda genuinely unfollow me, how can you be so idiotic but also so callous at the news, I won't even argue with misogynists

[Moniza Hossain @moniza_hossain]

I find this a baffling and irrelevant framework for assessing her work, which is not concerned with challenging western stereotypes about Iran, and is instead a personal retelling of her experience. I don’t know who gets to tell Iran’s story but Marjane gets to tell her own!

If anyone’s takeaway from Persepolis was that Iran is an “evil place”, then that is a problem with their own limitations as a reader and not the fault of the work itself.

[John Paul Newman @johnpaul_newman]

Nonsense. Satrapi’s parents were leftists politically active in opposition to the Shah. Her uncle was imprisoned and tortured under the monarchy. She writes about all this in Persepolis. Are we not even bothering to read the works before we post about them any more 🤷‍♂️

[Nooshin Samimi نوشین صمیمی @nsamimi9]

Part of the hostility toward Marjane Satrapi is b/c she occupies an uncomfortable position for multiple audiences at once. For many Western readers she became a symbol of the Iranian woman who defies stereotypes, but in the process she was often turned into a different kind of stereotype: the secular liberal Iranian woman whose story could stand in for an entire society. People tend to struggle with that kind of complexity forgetting that one woman’s story is exactly that, one person’s account!

There is also a gendered dimension. Iranian women who achieve extraordinary visibility (whether Marjane Satrapi, Golshifteh Farahani, or Iran Daroodi) have often attracted a particular kind of scrutiny and resentment that their male counterparts do not face.

At the same time, some Western academics are uneasy with the way Satrapi’s work has been received. Her narratives have often been embraced by liberal audiences as evidence of women’s resistance to religious and political authority whereas scholars influenced by works such as Politics of Piety have challenged the assumption that Muslim women’s agency must take secular or liberal forms. The result is that Satrapi can become a flashpoint in larger debates about feminism, secularism, Islam, and representation.

So the criticism comes from different directions: diaspora misogyny, discomfort with her symbolic status in the West, and genuine intellectual disagreements about how women’s agency and freedom should be understood.
