contrast framing isn’t smart. it’s stupid.

Iran’s opening of a Lebanon support front not only overturns the nonsensical “proxy” label routinely levelled against Hizbullah, but also demolishes the very premise of the Lebanese collaborationist government’s mantra that Hizbullah “dragged” Lebanon into a “war of others.”

But more importantly, Iran’s provision of this security umbrella to Lebanon demonstrates not merely the inextricability of Iran’s and Hizbullah’s strategic interests, nor just the depth of their ideological and religio-cultural ties, but their shared conception of sovereignty as regional self-determination--a substantive, lived sovereignty that must be continuously enacted and defended through struggle and solidarity, as opposed to the formal externally conferred sovereignty, which as the Lebanese government demonstrates, can be denied or surrendered entirely in practice.

@OunkaOnX Make the Clayton High Principal famous. It was her, not an "administrator" who blatantly violated the First Amendment Rights of the valedictorian.

“We embrace AI as not something we simply do…AI is part of who and how we are.”

I’m going to say it for the thousandth time: the problem is not the cheating students. They are a symptom of a problem. The problem is that academic administrators are at war with education itself.

Just saw footage of a Palestinian father carrying the shredded body of his daughter, killed in one of several Israeli airstrikes on Gaza just today. Israel declared south Lebanon a combat zone and is demanding people leave while it continues to bomb and kill entire families. All of this is supported and funded by this country, by both parties - even if some within them offer shades of dissent.

Palestinians don’t have time. The Lebanese don’t have time. They are being slaughtered, they are being eradicated family by family, child by child.

If Bolivia was still run by socialists targeted by Langley and Foggy Bottom for regime-change, the usual western media-NGO-human rights networks would activate to flood our brains with “Save the Bolivian People!” But since this is capitalism doing its usual repression—crickets

There are people behind their screens who see these rescue workers tending to a girl and her father, and they press a button and end their lives, then go get lunch as if they are not monsters who should be in prison for life

Google just permanently banned a manga artist’s entire Google account, just for uploading his own old manga files to Drive.

AI moderation triggered and flagged it, he tried to submit appeal then he got rejected it by Google and now he has lost everything like Gmail, Drive, all linked services is gone.

He never even sharing the files publicly, it’s only backing up his own a private work like any creator and artists.

This is Google Drive “AI moderation” in action. No human support and no serious to take action.

Physical storage or real private alternatives only.
Support the artists getting screwed by this. This level of corporate overreach is insane.

One of the sleazier media tropes is when the US menaces a much smaller country that’s done nothing to the US and it’s framed as “heightened tensions” between the two countries. Cuba is being unilaterally starved and threatened by the US. That’s not “tensions,” it’s US aggression.

“The AI is not just telling you what you want to hear. It is training you, one conversation at a time, to need less friction, expect more agreement, and become slightly less capable of handling a situation where someone pushes back on you…”

It took eight tries, but the Senate, with Bill Cassidy flipping after losing his primary, has just voted to advance a resolution to limit Trump's War on Iran.

Even with it advancing, John Fetterman still voted against it.

Rural indigenous communities have surrounded Evo Morales' residence to protect him. Leaked docs (attached below) show US armed forces & Bolivian police preparing a joint operation to kidnap him & massacre villagers.

BREAKING! US court ha suspended the US sanctions against me!
As the judge says: "Protecting the Freedom of speech is always just the public interest".
Thanks to my daughter and my husband for stepping up to defend me, and everyone who has helped so far.
