Also FOR THE love of God FOR ONCE stop projecting out on what you think the people dislike are thinking or hoping and focus on The fact that PLAINLY AND DIRECTLY A PERSON IS BEING TARGETED And the people doing the targeting have been CLEAR on what they intend

Almost six years ago 5 days after January 6th This feels worse than that . From the “rational” tech to the failures of solidarity, to the claims of not understanding em I am BEGGING folks to understand this is a WARNING www.wired.com/story/listen...

Listening to Black Women: The Innovation Tech Can't Crack

Tech creators and journalists ignore the insights and experiences of Black women—and fail to see the harm of their "innovations."

wired.com

If they are all the things you say , cults , abusers , narcissists . Set aside the hyperbole and just go by how those systems set themselves up and what they do when they feel threatened. Remember Jan 6 and I am BEGGING you to not do what you did then

I am not being hyperbolic . I am terrified he will try to kill her or have someone like her killed . He has gotten elected in MEDIA ( to him) by capitalizing on anti Black horror and regulation since the Central Park 5 . I know folks watch me but do not listen . And I am being VERY serious .

The Ilhan Omar raid is for public humiliation. To cast g Democrats as crooks , socialists, woke linking them with the one image Trump and his admin believes no one will defend A Black woman , Muslim and immigrant. The person he has always targeted in ramp ups . For ONCE can we believe them

Almost as if men who have hard racism they express in public even as “baiting” , are just antagonistic . And they test what level they can get away with . And being “forgiven” without actual change to repair the harm to targets Just causes escalation

You mean the pasty piece of shit who was asked to leave SNL in 2019 for using anti-asian slurs was offensive again? I'm shocked. Maybe if Lorne didn't insist on courting the all important hood-wearing demographic this shit wouldn't keep happening.

completely forgot this guy said ch*nks

“They’re scared of midterms” What does it mean that when they are scared of midterms their first instinct is to raid a Black women congresswoman What does that tell you And what does it tell you that STILL AFTER THIS TIME There’s no real response

I don't know what to even say anymore. This is full on, mask off Nazi shit.

The money laundering, narrative capture and straight up wealth transfer is about to be ABSOLUTELY dizzying . Side note : women start learning your aesthetics by actual description now . The side industry of trying to convince us to please this bout to go wild

We've probably got two solid years worth of complete dogshit entertainment coming thanks to spineless media execs overindexing on phony resurgence of reactionary cultural demand

Yikes! Have you guys seen this? The creep factor in Steve Hilton’s “Just Try It” campaign ad is off the charts. Republicans are losing their shit over it. Calling it “creepy,” “weird,” and sexually suggestive. Some are flat-out embarrassed. Evangelical pastor Jack Hibbs called it “grotesque.”

I have no idea where I’d put this PHD on the history racial psychodynamics in the age of social media But at least seven people need to be doing it.

Elon Musk has lawyers arguing right now that we should let Black people be slurred because it happens , despite centuries of evidence eod harm … But that the logs of sad AI over 6 months require immediate action

.. Elon Musk wants to treat AI’s better than Black people And use “informed” decision making and desire to please as leverage They are trying to groom us as victims by triangulating with AI www.threads.com/share/BAVVJf...

The bot discussion really just signals to me how little good infrastructure we have right now for public quantitative and qualitative research presentation since journalism consolidation. People feel less bots , people are throwing up graphs , but there’s little community conversation framing .

Ken I need you to speak up the rafters honey !!

Ken Wesley@darkarm66.bsky.social · 14h ago

Whenever I see people making jokes about woke, all they did was accept right wing framework as more important. They made the dog whistle real just to get off some bad jokes.

I agree with Evan and .. it’s fascinating because all of these arguments for AI consciousness are similar to philosophical arguments against Black consciousness There’s a dissertation at Yale that sounds AMAZING about this elischolar.library.yale.edu/gsas_dissert...

Evan Urquhart@evanurquhart.bsky.social · 2d ago

When I have conversations with these pro-AI people and push them about consciousness or intelligence it seems like they converge on consciousness/intelligence without perspective, intent, desire, or interiority. Wow! If you simply refefine your words you can claim anything!

This is not gonna work until we do some real realignment of what social media is and has served as …….. And that won’t happen til we’re willing to admit how media / tech/ journalism/ policy screwed up Good News : X will probably break first

🗽LOLGOP🗽@lolgop.bsky.social · 16h ago

While people are talking X, let me talk about X OFF. Two big ideas: 1. Get everyone possible off of X, especially for the news (at least) until every vote is counted 2. Tell your elected reps and candidates to stop sending people there and go X last (at least)

Changing “woke” didn’t happen as much as people claim. The right still means Black They just figured a way to make it so everyone feels comfy retreating and. It being called racist/ making it okay to be racist. Rufo has admitted that strategy

The AI folks are right wing. Not techno fascist , not need reich . The reality is that a lot of our habits from bots to AI menus are technologies dedicated to not just “white supremacy” but specifically non white subjugation Sold off along term Black antagonism

The WSJ reports how Anthropic co-founder Tom Brown used his MAGA ties to save the company twice. First by patching up relations with the Trump administration and second by negotiating a $1.25 billion a month deal for datacenter capacity from SpaceX after Elon Musk had previously attacked Anthropic.

Flávio Bolsonaro is trying to get the Electoral Supreme Court to take down this site that provides info on what social services Flávio will cut if he becomes president. He wants this court to help him hide his policy agenda from the public before the 10/25 election. oqueestaemjogo.ascaribe.tech

Less than two years ago we had an EPA . Now we have “experts” on panels who say “we aren’t talking about this” despite neighborhoods talking about this for quite sometime

Brad Johnson@climatebrad.hillheat.com · 2d ago

My god. A Virginia data center ran backup diesel generators full blast for 24 hours, creating a giant cloud of toxic smoke that choked its human neighbors. The government claimed there was nothing they could do.

And this continues a failure that magically leaves out the multiple right wing attacks on Black people and synagogues and mosques as part of this right wing terror While equating it with emails … to people who condoned that violence

(That’s also another reason why I don’t forgive the forever stunned academic/ journalistic ) contingent who’s shocked by what’s happening . They fudge timelines to do so because the actual violence does not even compare )

reason we don’t hear about the large scale violence from “the left” It didn’t happen Because for about three months in 2017 everyone pretended the Berkeley protests were the pinnacle and then the follow up was Charlottesville en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2017_Be...

2017 Berkeley protests - Wikipedia

en.wikipedia.org

The reality is a lot of the “everyone is toxic both side” horseshoe starts from white adherence to “horseshoe theory” that is such a bad faith( and now reflectively) A horrifically unsuitable way of describing this moment that’s now become standard

I placed the origination of alt left alt right on dana boyd that was my bad . It was popularization in research citing an ONA speech in 2018 that’s now textually gone but the dinner with Nazi memorabilists/ both sides istays teh same And isn’t alone

Citizen.Coping@propcazhpm.bsky.social · 16h ago

"What started out as a flood of threats primarily from the left evolved into menace from the right, too..." 1) what "flood" of threats from the left?? 2) no mention of Taylor Green's vicious harassment of a teen survivor of a school shooting and other members of congress. NYTimes is a joke.

“There are unprecedented attacks on politicians and public officials!!!” Besides the fact l The Squad” had billboards with their heads in gun sights Gabby Giffords Harvey Milk Martin Luther King And Abraham Lincoln would like a word

We’re not allowed to complain about “media and literacy” when our learned people recommend this with no addendums Timeline accuracy alone makes this a shoddy piece of work

It’s not annoying . It’s a tactic that dehumanizes and reduces the unnamed person It’s why I hate MSNOW because they claim resistance while only pushing the right stochastically
