i wish people realized that AI data centers are being used to commit environmental racism and fascism. i wish people would realize air, water, and soil pollution causes generational illnesses. i wish people wouldn’t use chatgpt. i wish people understood how evil it is
It will always baffle me how easily people will believe that the poor, the sick, the marginalized, and the immigrant are the cause for all their problems, rather than the people in the most powerful positions in their country who refuse to fix problems and exploit them instead.
People today use the phrase "its inevitable" to claim "so its ok to discard ethics." I will not. AI is not inevitable. War is not inevitable. Genocide is not inevitable. Climate catastrophe is not inevitable. These are all HUMAN choices. YOU have agency don't pretend otherwise.
the Diddy verdict is going to set a nasty precedent and trend for what people (especially those with wealth & power) believe they can get away with, when it comes to sex, domestic violence, & abuse crimes. and that's honestly, the most terrifying part of this entire case.
Said it before and I'll say it again until you assholes listen: AI being built on slave labor in Africa and data centers polluting Black neighborhoods in the US should be the no.1 reason not to use this shit
Now is the time to put these supposed values of yours to work
You can spew anti-Black racism, Islamophobia, or white supremacy in this country and be just fine. But speak out against Zionism, and suddenly “free speech” ends and deportation begins.
This doesn’t stop antisemitism—it manufactures it.
The alt right wants you to memeify their people. They want to make their rhetoric into a joke so it doesn’t seem serious when you regurgitate it and then slowly use that constant stream of jokes and memes to guide you down the alt right pipeline
Save yourself some stress — study the rest of the world and the ongoing liberation battles against imperialism and start supporting them there.
Broad change will come as the US power wanes abroad. Socialism begins as the empire falls outside its core.
the country didn’t “move far right”, trump got less votes than he did in 2020. democrats just completely fumbled their coalition and alienated entire bases of voters
lock tf in. get your ass in mutual aid groups. lend your time to meal services. care for people in the way a vote simply never could. advocate for community gardens and libraries. stop betraying community. you don’t get a sticker or gold star. lock in.
The Starbucks boycott is not explicitly just for Palestine, it’s because they’re union busters who sued their own employees for being vocal about a genocide. We would like people to be able to organize as laborers and speak out about injustice without being punished.
