The moment I saw the name @craigbrittain.com being flagged I knew I knew him from somewhere. Not only is all this true, he tried to grift during GamerGate as well. He ran the Twitter account @GamerGateTweets & was a driving force behind a pro-GG panel at SXSW 2015 called "Save Point". A PoS alright

PSA: It's even worse. Craig not only operated a revenge porn website, but he also was engaging in racketeering by secretly running several shell companies that offered a paid service that would remove your revenge porn *from the revenge porn distro sites he owned*.

I'm still thinking about this. I would love to know the prompt which led to the creation of the video. How much of what you see in the video is the direct result of the prompt, and how much of it was the AI generator filling in the gaps with its own training data about what 'Africa' looks like...?

Anti-foreign content is nothing new on Chinese social media and dates back to the early days of Chinese social media. The age of AI has brought new dynamics to such content. Last year, AI-generated anti-Black videos presented cautionary tales about Chinese women becoming involved with African men.

This thread highlights a disturbing racialised AI trend and I encourage you to check it out. On a side note, I can't stop laughing at this woman THROWING TWO BABIES at a dude

Does everyone here know that @craigbrittain.com, who is currently masquerading as an anti-MAGA warrior, was fined in 2016 for operating a revenge porn website? A *lot* of y’all follow him. ⚠️ Marked as unsafe. ⚠️ www.ftc.gov/news-events/...

Dear Australia: fuel prices are not about to jump. What is about to happen is that you will pay something closer to the real price of oil reliance, rather than forcing your fellow taxpayers who either don't drive or drive less to make up the difference.

Prices to jump at the bowser as fuel excise cut ends

The price of unleaded and diesel will climb in the next week as the government's fuel excise cut officially ends. But experts say prices won't go as high as they did due to increased supply.

One of my favourite parts about making videos about horrible, horrible people is trying to find the worst possible photo to represent them but never mentioning that I've done this deliberately or commenting on it in any way

In the lead-up to the MIDSOMMAR video dropping (hopefully by next week!) here's a list of all my sources for the video in case you would like a little light reading on some truly horrific stuff!

“MIDSOMMAR: All the Bells and Dogwhistles” Sources

The MIDSOMMAR video is my longest and most time-consuming video to date, given the nuanced subject matter and the need to rigorously fact-check my sources. Shout-out again to the people who helped me with fact-checking at different stages: a scholar who researches the far-right (pseudonym Ragnarok), a Swedish friend (Diana J), and two Polish translators (Bazukinier and Vic Cwintal). If you want to learn more about any of the concepts that I explore during the MIDSOMMAR video, here are my sources in order of appearance (not alphabetical order!):

This is an interesting development, but surely this is just passing the buck onto other individuals, as opposed to the systems and social environment that allow this to keep happening, over and over? Is this not just increasing surveillance infrastructure from birth?

Ah, this warms the cockles of my cold, dead heart. Wait til you see the price a TERF had to pay for lying about a trans woman. "...also be required to publish a court-approved apology that must remain pinned on their social media channels for three months" www.lgbtqnation.com/2026/07/an-a...

The actual problem is, OF COURSE, multiple copyright claims on the music ("melody or lyrics") because that happens EVERY. SINGLE. TIME. I have the audacity to stream a game that goes out of its way to use public domain music composed hundreds of years ago. Like clockwork. Such disgusting scammers.

weird to be writing "And just think, if I could launch Candace Owen's entire career accidentally, just think of what I could do for you on purpose!" into a cover letter, but here we are

Also, on that note, I want to thank everyone also for their patience in waiting for the MIDSOMMAR video, which has taken so much longer than I thought it would, being an incredibly, uncharacteristically long video that I need to fact-check the shit out of in multiple languages. We're so close now!

Hey folks! I'm nearing completion of the MIDSOMMAR video, but there are two passages from Polish newspapers about racist football chants that I'm trying to translate. Are there any fluent Polish speakers who might be able to check my understanding of these passages? You'll get a special credit~

I shudder to think what kind of uses ai data that's been trained on gamers has.

Are you telling me that a company that makes bank off of "providing a platform" to exploit other people's labour while doing nothing to support them, is now planning to use that same exploited labour to make even more money

Twitch and Amazon are apparently planning to use streams to train Generative AI. Multiple sources tell me it will be announced in the coming months, despite some internal friction against it. Creators may be able to opt out of some training data.

Honestly, I think many of us are focused on how shit The Daily Mail is, when that's all it has ever been. What I think is worth questioning is why we keep placing our hopes on cis white dude "allies" not crumbling and rescinding support the moment they are challenged on anything

this is disgusting. if i were ken jennings the fact that the daily mail used this situation as significant ammo to paint trans people as two-faced and histrionic would embarrass me forever.

And why were 70+ Palestinians detained, you ask? "Israeli media reports & interviews with local Palestinian officials suggested a group of settlers entered Tell & were confronted by residents fearful of an attack. The village is off-limits to Israelis as part of Area B under the 1993 Oslo Accords."

Israel's military says it has detained over 70 suspects across the occupied West Bank following violence that left two Israeli soldiers and four Palestinian villagers dead there.

The claim “RFK Jr. does not fuck chickens” is not an evidence-based claim because studies have not ruled out the possibility that RFK Jr. fucks chickens.

I don't accept the argument that if you switch the trolley on to the other track — even a big heavy out of control trolley — you're responsible for killing the people tied to that track.
