chatgpt (and surely other ai companies) exploit african workers (particularly kenyans) and use them to filter the things people send to ai programs. including every bad thing you can think of. so bad that some of the workers say they need therapy. all for $1.35 - $2 an hour.
As university workers, the common refrain we now hear is that there’s no money for basic stuff like decent pay, and jobs, and research. But somehow deep pocket for spying on students in the service of Israel and bullshit consultancies.

It's not complicated. It's Apartheid!
Nobody is protected by this bill. The bill looks at transness as a medical condition and/or something that one has been coerced into. If anything this bill seeks to erase trans bodies all together barring for a few socio cultural identities.
A sinister element in this trans bill is how it seeks to isolate a trans individual from any kind of community. By criminalizing "those who infleunce a person to be trans" it cuts transpeople off from doctors, healthcare workers, NGOs, and even individuals. Pure evil this
Please support our queer and trans kin and loved ones in the subcontinent right now! All that they have fought for over the past decades is about to be legally invalidated and, furthermore, criminalized!
Archvies | Over the past few years, the Indian diaspora has become political—while keeping a safe distance from the storm centre of the toxic right-wing politics it spews—and Priyanka Chopra is simply the high priestess of the blinding bourgeois hypocrisy it has come to typify. Like Chopra, the larger community of Indian immigrants to the United States and the United Kingdom have been in the news for what they choose to endorse and ignore. Indian-Americans in New Jersey recently apologised after including a bulldozer—now a symbol of anti-Muslim hate—in a parade to celebrate 75 years of Indian independence. The New York Times noted that, “to those who understood its symbolism, it was a blunt and sinister taunt later likened to a noose or a burning cross at a Ku Klux Klan rally.”
In September 2022, the diaspora in Leicester and Birmingham went on an angry march, threatening Muslim residents in the area. Wherever the diaspora is concentrated, it is now flexing its muscles to threaten South Asian Muslims. The seeds of hate sown in India have spread like a metastasising cancer, infecting all corners of the world where Indians live.
The real grift, for me, is that Chopra—like the rest of the diaspora—keeps getting away with her delusional self-narrative. As a UN ambassador, she has stood up for everyone from George Floyd to Iranian women while inviting Modi to her wedding reception. She is by no means the only actor with a broken moral compass; Bollywood’s role as a propaganda machine for the Hindu Right recently made it to the New Yorker. But she is among the few who live in a dual reality, code-switching from propagandist to civil-rights champion more easily than one slips in and out of pyjamas.
