@peterrhague World government = Babel. Ironically @Pontifex's fix to AI issues is Babilonian.

[Ziga Turk 🇸🇮 🇺🇦 🇮🇱 @ZigaTurkEU]

@Pontifex @michaeljknowles It has been like this in all societies where the status of a person was related to his achievement and not to the caste, class or guild into which he was born.

The problem is that the difference between status and dignity is vanishing.

@deanwball Indeed. Except for the last few pages, that document could have been written by just about any secular think tank or European Commission's group of concerned intellectuals.

@MaxMastermann3 @spectator Soul is mentioned exactly three times, never related to AI.

.@MarcoRubio has said, “We in America have no interest in being polite & orderly caretakers of the West’s managed decline.” Spot on.

@Endariel_EC @Bitcoin_Teddy Yes. Naturally grown = spontanious, not planned, not constructed, not made, not derived from first principles or from an idea ... I would say it is a non-ideology. No system of ideas. Instead, whatever works,

Not a single **market for defence**. A single **army** for defence.

[The Parliament Magazine @Parlimag]

Is it time for a single market in defence?

In the latest episode of the Eastern Frontline Group's Podcast, @poznaks, @RLanschot and economist @GuntramWolff discuss how the "fragmented" market is driving "crazy" costs.

🔊Listen the full episode.

@HendrKim @InstituteDanube Organized religion maintains and protects the memetic code of a civilization. Corrupted genetic code gives you cancer. Corrupted memetic code ...

🟦Sojusz Transatlantycki, fundament światowego bezpieczeństwa od zakończenia II wojny światowej, wymaga gruntownej przebudowy. Przez lata Europa funkcjonowała w wygodnej iluzji, a USA to akceptowały.

🟦Ameryka w dużym stopniu płaciła i zapewniała staremu kontynentowi bezpieczeństwo, a Europa budowała dobrobyt, rozwijała handel, odbudowywała się i chroniła swoje rynki. Dziś, pod geopolitycznym naciskiem tandemu chińsko-rosyjskiego - i przy amerykańskiej presji będącej odpowiedzią na to zagrożenie - ten układ się rozpada.

🟦Nigdy nie miałem złudzeń wobec Rosji. Zawsze ostrzegałem wszystkich liderów wolnego świata, że Putin to nie partner, tylko przeciwnik. Tyran, który chce odbudować imperium - i liczy na słabość Zachodu. Zawsze powtarzałem to też naszym partnerom z USA.

🟦To dla Polski oczywiście wyzwanie - ale i wielka szansa. Musimy stanąć na wysokości zadania. O tym mówiłem w wywiadzie dla @washingtonpost.

🟦Rząd @pisorgpl dał przykład - biorąc odpowiedzialność za bezpieczeństwo wschodniej flanki @NATO i rekordowo zwiększając wydatki na obronność. Dziś jesteśmy trzecią armią sojuszu i wzorem dla innych państw europejskich.

🟦Ale Polska, nawet przy strategicznym partnerstwie i przyjaźni z USA, sama nie udźwignie ciężaru bezpieczeństwa. Potrzebujemy czegoś więcej.

🟦Musimy zreformować sojusz i zbudować➡️ #GospodarczeNATO🛡.

🟦Nie możemy pozwolić na wypchnięcie Ameryki z Europy. Silny blok USA + UE odpowiada za ~50% światowego PKB, ustala globalne zasady gry i jest realną przeciwwagą dla Chin i Rosji.

🟦Dlatego Europa musi się zmienić. Postawić na mniej ideologii i więcej gospodarki. Wziąć przykład z Polski.

🟦Jeśli chcemy być równorzędnym partnerem dla USA, obronić nasz model życia i zbudować bezpieczną przyszłość - musimy najpierw sami stać się silni.

🟦Nie ma czasu na kolejne apele i deklaracje - czas na działanie! Walczcie z nami o bezpieczną przyszłość Polski, Europy i silny Sojusz Transatlantycki.

Since this does not work, my workflow is:

1) Share posts to @obsdmd.
2) Copy paste to @Grok (you don't allow .md files as attachments !!).
3) Ask Grok to create a draft report.
4) Paste that into Obsidian for future reference.

Hej @grok, cc. @elonmusk, cc. @x, here's something you should be able to do for me:

I read stuff on X.
I bookmark stuff that **might** be interesting.
I ask @grok to read, watch stuff for me, and write a nice structured report. That one I **would** read.

@ashwingop A philosopher would explain that meaning emerges with retrieval in context and does not exist intrinsically.

About right!

My geopolitical sanity check:
—You stand with Israel against Hamas.
—You stand with Ukraine against Russian aggression.
—You stand with the people of Iran against the Islamic regime.

I don’t even mind if you’re agnostic about these, to a point.

But once you start siding with Hamas, Russia and the Islamic regime purposely… I genuinely think you’re insane.

I urge European institutions to closely monitor developments in Slovenia ahead of the March 22 elections.

Today is February 13 and just six days before the official start of the election campaign.

In this critical pre-election period, the ruling party Gibanje Svoboda (Renew Europe) and Prime Minister Robert Golob are using state institutions to target the parliamentary opposition and exert pressure on critical media.
Yesterday, an investigative program, “Tarča”, on Slovenia’s main public broadcaster (TVS1) was cancelled before airing. The editorial team stated they were informed that the episode would not be broadcast and received a written warning about possible action against them if it aired as prepared.

At the same time, police and prosecution proceedings are being initiated against opposition figures just weeks before the elections.

The cancellation of investigative journalism on public television and the use of state institutions against political opponents in the pre-election period represent a serious threat to media freedom, institutional independence, and democratic standards in an EU member state.

Media freedom, independent institutions, and fair elections are not optional. They are core European values.

Above, you see the leadership of "social democrats" bowing to the totalitarian monument of one of the communists who started a civil war in 1941 and organized mass murder of counter revolutionaries in 1941-46. Photo taken in 2024!

[Ziga Turk 🇸🇮 🇺🇦 🇮🇱 @ZigaTurkEU]

This is beyond parody.

@TheProgressives are calling on @EPP to expell Slovenian Democratic Party while having in its "progressive" ranks the faithful ideological and material heirs of the Slovenian Communist Party.
