BREAKING:

Israeli settlers are burning Taybeh in occupied Palestine.

A village that has stood for thousands of years.

A place where Jesus once walked.

Home to the oldest living Christian community in the world.

And not a peep from Western mainstream media.

Nvidia CEO'su Jensen Huang'a, 'hayatında tanıdığınız en zeki kişi kim' sorusuna cevabı:
- Tanıdığım en zeki insan üniversite giriş sınavından berbat bir puan bile almış olabilir.
- Herkes yazılım programlamanın nihai akıllı meslek olduğunu düşünüyordu.
- Yapay zekanın çözdüğü ilk şey ne oldu? Yazılım programlama.
- Zeki tanımı çoğu insanın düşündüğünden çok farklı.
- Gerçek zeka: Teknik yetenek + İnsan empatisi + Söylenmeyeni anlama becerisi
- Köşelerin ötesini görebilen insanlar gerçekten, gerçekten akıllıdır.
- Sorunları ortaya çıkmadan önce önleyebilmek - sadece havayı hissettiğin için.
- O hava: Veri + Analiz + İlk prensipler + Yaşam deneyimi + Bilgelik + Diğer insanları hissetmek
- İşte bu zekadır.
- Geleceğin zeki tanımı bu olacak.
Ve o kişi SAT'den berbat bir puan alabilir.

In 1879, JP Morgan paid a man to invent the lie that is the foundation of modern economics.

A billionaire who helped start Amazon just exposed the whole thing on Diary of a CEO, and once you hear it you will never look at paychecks the same way again:

146 years ago, a guy named Henry George wrote a book called Progress and Poverty.

It was the first mainstream book about the rich systematically stealing from the poor, and It literally became the bestselling book in the history of the United States at the time.

The working class was reading it everywhere, and the people at the top of the economy completely lost their minds.

So JP Morgan personally brought a man named John Bates Clark to Columbia University, which was essentially the intellectual headquarters of Wall Street, and told him to fix the problem.

Clark wrote a book called The Distribution of Wealth. In it, he invented something called the "theory of marginal productivity," which claims that because markets are perfectly efficient, the amount of money you earn reflects EXACTLY the value you contribute to the economy.

If you make $15,000 a year, that's because you're providing $15,000 of value. If a hedge fund manager makes $500 million a year moving money around, that's an accurate reflection of the value he creates in the world.

And Clark literally said the quiet part out loud IN HIS OWN BOOK.

He wrote that they had to prove to working people that no matter how much they make, whether it's a little or a lot, it accurately reflects their value, because if workers ever concluded that their labor was worth more than they were being paid, they would revolt and destroy the entire system.

That was the whole point. The theory was built to prevent a revolution.

And it worked so well that it got absorbed into mainstream economics and is STILL taught as a foundational principle to this day.

Every time a CEO tells you "the market decides your salary," they're repeating a framework that was literally commissioned by JP Morgan in the 1800s to convince you not to ask for more.

Nick Hanauer, the billionaire who told this story, also shared the numbers that prove why it matters right now:

The median full-time worker in America earns about $60,000 a year. If that same worker had maintained the same share of GDP they held in 1975, they wouldn't be making $60,000. They'd be making $120,000. That gap goes all the way up to the 90th percentile. If you earn $180,000 today, you'd be earning $250,000 under the old distribution.

The ONLY people who benefited from 50 years of economic growth were the top 10%, and the vast majority of that went to the top 1%. That is trillions of dollars every single year that used to be wages for ordinary working people and now sits in the accounts of the wealthiest people on the planet.

This happened because of policy. Tax cuts for the rich, deregulation for the powerful, and wage suppression for everyone else, all justified by an economic theory that was invented specifically to make you believe you deserve exactly what you're getting.

And the craziest part is that GDP growth rates in America were 4 to 4.5% for decades when workers were included in prosperity. As soon as the neoliberals took over in the mid-1970s and implemented these policies, GDP growth fell to 3% and eventually to 2%.

Including people in the economy doesn't slow growth down. It's literally the thing that CREATES growth. And the theory that convinced the world otherwise was a hit job paid for by one of the richest men in history to keep workers quiet.

What do you think?

Yahudi İzleyici: (ağlayarak) Konuşmanız sırasında Yahudilere yönelik birçok kez Nazi benzetmesi yaptınız. Bu son derece incitici. Bu, Nazi rejimi altında gerçekten acı çekmiş olan insanlar için çok aşağılayıcı.

Norman Finkelstein cevap veriyor:

— Bu tavra artık saygı duymuyorum. Gerçekten duymuyorum. Bu timsah gözyaşlarından hoşlanmıyorum ve onlara saygı da duymuyorum. (Dinleyicilerden alkışlar ve yuhalamalar yükselir)

— Yabancı bir dinleyici kitlesi önünde "Holokost kartını" oynamaktan hoşlanmıyorum ama şu an kendimi buna mecbur hissediyorum. Rahmetli babam Auschwitz'deydi. Rahmetli annem Majdanek toplama kampındaydı. Ailemin her iki taraftan da tüm üyeleri katledildi. Annem ve babam Varşova Gettosu Ayaklanması'na katıldılar.

— İşte tam da annem ve babamın bana ve iki kardeşime öğrettikleri dersler nedeniyle, İsrail'in Filistinlilere karşı işlediği suçlar karşısında sessiz kalmayacağım! Onların acılarını ve ölümlerini kullanarak; İsrail'in her gün Filistinlilere karşı işlediği işkence, vahşet ve ev yıkma suçlarını meşru göstermeye çalışmaktan daha aşağılık bir şey düşünemiyorum!

— Bu yüzden artık bu gözyaşlarıyla sindirilmeyi veya baskılanmayı reddediyorum. Eğer zerre vicdanın olsaydı, burada döktüğün o gözyaşlarını Filistinliler için döküyor olurdun!

Mr Beast says he could start a faceless channel tomorrow and hit 20 million subscribers in six months

“I could start a new channel tomorrow not using my face or my voice without ever promoting it and in six months have 20 million subscribers”

“It’s purely knowledge if you knew what I knew you could get 10 million views a video and 10 million subscribers no matter where you are right now within 6 months”

🔻 LED LIGHTS FLICKER 120 TIMES PER SECOND. YOU CAN'T SEE IT. YOUR BRAIN REGISTERS EVERY SINGLE ONE. THIS WAS KNOWN BEFORE THEY MADE THEM MANDATORY.

In 2012, the U.S. government banned incandescent light bulbs. The reason given: energy efficiency. The real reason is in a document that was never meant to be public.

In 2007 — five years before the ban — the Department of Energy's Pacific Northwest National Laboratory completed a 14-month neurological study on LED flicker. Reference: PNNL-SA-2007-4419. Classified: "Limited Distribution — Not for Public Release."

What they found:

LED bulbs at 120Hz produce flicker invisible to conscious perception but fully registered by the thalamus. Continuous exposure over 6+ hours per day: measurable melatonin suppression, circadian disruption, and a 23% reduction in deep-sleep duration within 90 days.

23% less deep sleep. In 90 days. From your ceiling lights.

A former lighting engineer — 9 years at one of three companies manufacturing 87% of LED bulbs in North America:

"We were told the flicker had to remain at 120Hz. Not because of cost. Not because of engineering limitations. Because the specification came from outside the company. It was a compliance requirement attached to the federal energy rebate program. If you wanted the subsidy, you built to their spec. Nobody asked why the spec existed. We just built to it."

The spec came from the DOE. The DOE study proving neurological harm was completed 5 years before the ban. They knew. They mandated it anyway.

What 120Hz flicker does over years:

Melatonin suppression. Pineal calcification accelerates. Immune response weakens. Emotional regulation deteriorates. Attention span shortens. You become easier to agitate. Easier to distract. Easier to control.

Incandescent bulbs: continuous current. No flicker. Smooth light identical to fire — what human biology evolved under for 300,000 years. They banned the one light your brain was designed for and replaced it with one that degrades you 120 times per second.

The fix: Replace LEDs in rooms where you spend 4+ hours — especially bedrooms — with incandescent bulbs. Still legal as "heat lamps" or "rough service" bulbs. They never disappeared. Just relabeled so you wouldn't look.

Your sleep problems are not stress. Your brain fog is not aging. Your irritability is not personality. It's 120 invisible pulses per second, every waking hour, in every room you enter.

CODE: PNNL-2007-4419 / 120HZ-PWM / MELATONIN-23 / DOE-SPEC-MANDATE / THALAMUS-REGISTER

⟁
They banned the light your brain was built for and replaced it with one that breaks you so slowly you blame yourself. The bulbs are still available. They just made sure you'd never think to look. Share this.

The UK now hosts more than 500 active data centres (the third largest in the world). They have been rammed through despite huge local community concerns about the impact on their local landscapes and energy and water consumption.

These enormous data centres are giant industrial facilities consuming vast quantities of electricity, water and land while placing increasing pressure on the UK’s energy infrastructure.

▪️Water consumption by data centres is expected to reach 9.3 trillion litres, while CO2 emissions will rise to 399 million tons.

▪️Annual power consumption from data centres is projected to double to 945 TWh by 2030, around ‌the ⁠same as the whole of Japan’s energy consumption, with AI accounting for 40% of the total.

▪️The rise of AI is accelerating this trend. The UK Government's Compute Roadmap notes that AI data centres can devote up to 40% of their energy consumption to cooling systems.

▪️It is estimated that data-centre power and water consumption could double by 2030 due to AI growth.

▪️Emerging research suggests large AI facilities can create localised warming effects around their sites, sometimes described as a “data heat island” effect.

Numerous campaigns against these data centres are being organised by local communities. No one voted for this. If you are involved in any of these local campaigns, please DM me and I’ll try and help you amplify your campaigns.

A former senior colleague of Raffi Berg, now the BBC's Middle East online editor, forensically analyses his output as a BBC writer.

It shows a consistent pattern of humanising Israeli soldiers and settlers while dehumanising Palestinians, and burying information that might place Israel in a bad light – talents that seem to have led to his promotion to BBC editor.

Martin Asser concludes: "The world Berg presents in his early BBC features is a rich source of misinformation and / or disinformation."

This article should prove useful to Owen Jones' legal team as they fight Berg's defamation case. Jones cited 13 BBC journalists who accused Berg of skewing the corporation's coverage to make Israel look good.

I WALKED INTO THE APPLE STORE LAST WEEK WITH AN IPHONE TOO HOT TO HOLD.

“IS SOMETHING WRONG WITH IT?”

THE TECHNICIAN RAN EVERY TEST. EVERYTHING CAME BACK NORMAL.

THEN HE LEANED IN AND SAID SOMETHING I’LL NEVER FORGET:

“THERE ARE 2 SETTINGS TURNED ON INSIDE YOUR IPHONE RIGHT NOW THAT ARE SLOWLY COOKING IT. APPLE TURNS THEM ON BY DEFAULT. THEY QUIETLY SHORTEN YOUR IPHONE'S LIFESPAN.”

I ASKED THE OBVIOUS QUESTION:

“SO APPLE IS WEARING OUT MY OWN PHONE ON PURPOSE?”

HE DIDN’T ANSWER.

9-5 jobs are comfort money. They give you just enough money to make it hard to leave. Then you buy a house, get a car, have kids. Then it's too much risk to leave the job.

Next thing you know, you blink, and you're 60.
