NEW: McDonald's prices have doubled in the last ten years.
The profits have gone mostly to shareholders, who got nearly $40 billion in dividends over the past decade while customers suffer and workers are underpaid.
Here's how fast food is the latest victim of enshittification.
i feel like everyone needs to hear the *actual* words that were deemed as hate speech bc it very simply illustrates that regardless of how palestinian advocacy is delivered it can/will be twisted into something that it is not. we need to continue to block out the noise and defend what is right in our guts. it is the only way forward.
New video by Palestinian journalist & Activist Bisan Owda draws parallels between the Israeli luxury development of Rafah🇵🇸 and mega luxury Project Esencia in Cabo Rojo, Puerto Rico🇵🇷
I love the kids because they totally get it, all around the world. Unfortunately a system has been created which they don't know how to dismantle...almost as if the powers that be knew they would be exposed, so they built a fort
You have no idea how much respect I have for this person who has systematically archived every piece of evidence from the Gaza genocide.
This is how history refuses to be erased. Thank you for your extraordinary work. ❤️🙏🏼
🚨Genesee County uses Flock cameras to capture and search vehicle data. But when Kettering University student Josh Tewolde requested records showing where the cameras are, who accessed the data and whether his vehicle was scanned, the county withheld key information.
Its excuse? The records belong to Flock, a private contractor. But the county’s own contract says it owns the data.
Josh is suing because government should not be able to hide public surveillance records behind a private company. If the government uses the cameras, the public deserves transparency.
Así es como Anthropic, una empresa de Inteligencia Artificial, ha destruido 2 millones de libros (muchos de ellos obras únicas y antiguas) para entrenar a su chatbot, los ha cortado, los ha escaneado y luego los ha destruido masivamente.
Poco se habla de esto, la novela Fahrenheit 451 se hizo real y ni siquiera reaccionamos, el control de la información, la censura y el dominio del pensamiento se impondrá en una sociedad vacía y adicta a las pantallas para beneficio del capitalista.
NYC mayor, Zohran Mamdani, tried to break through the state troopers to stop the mass deportations while shouting:
'DO YOU BELIEVE IN THE 1st AMENDMENT?'
This IS what it looks like when a leader is fighting for humanity. 👏
WTF
AI companies are purchasing large quantities of used and rare books. Scanning their contents to train models. Then turning the originals to pulp.
The sum of human thought, digitized and shredded.
Every book that gets scanned disappears from the physical world permanently. The knowledge survives only as training data inside a system no one can hold, browse, or resell.
What used to sit on a shelf for centuries now exists as weights in a model that might get deprecated next quarter.
