dell cameron@dell.bsky.social · last yr.One of the tactics Amazon has deployed in the past is offering police free devices and tools in exchange for signing contracts—likely unlawful—that prohibit authorities from saying negative things about Amazon.
It will take a hell of a lot for me to ever forgive the people who did this, as well as those who cheer them on.

the actual order of events from 2020-2024 gets strategically jumbled by reactionary centrists all the time. They love to blame 2024 on wokeness while skipping over the fact that Dems won in 2020. They talk about early COVID Iike it was a failure of Dem policy when Trump was in office.
Greg Sargent@gregsargent.bsky.social · 12h agoI don't understand why this keeps getting overlooked: Joe Biden won in 2020 in the middle of Peak Woke. I'd go one step further than @brianbeutler.bsky.social does here: Biden *defended the BLM protesters!* www.offmessage.net/p/woke-one-a...
A common tactic--including in the pages of Jacobin magazine--is to pretend to complain about the "slogan" of "defund" and to use that complaint to avoid conversation about common sense and popular policies like transferring $$$ from cops to health, education, and housing.
alec karakatsanis@equalityalec.bsky.social · yesterdayTHREAD. Contrary to what you are being told, 40 years of polling have established that shifting money away from police/prisons toward social services is one of the most popular public policies among *all* political demographics. But it's not just that, it goes way deeper.
Thomson Reuters, which owns news agency Reuters, has signed a $125M deal giving ICE access to its databases of personal data. USA Today has partnered with Palantir to gain "actionable intelligence" on its audiences. The media should be opponents of Trump's police state — not collaborators.

Look, The New York Times can't report on *everything* Yes, yes, this Republican congressman urged a military-backed coup to overthrow an election. But did you know that a gubernatorial candidate said she didn't like Thanksgiving? You can't cover it all. It's all about priorities, people.
Mark Jacob@markjacob.bsky.social · 15h agoRep. Ralph Norman, who’s in a Senate runoff with Lindsey Graham’s sister Darline, secretly urged a military-backed coup in 2021 to keep Trump in power. But the NY Times thinks it’s no big deal. In its last 92 stories mentioning Norman over 3 years and 7 months, it hasn’t stated that fact once. 1/7🧵
MILFS in YOUR area have gone SILENT. our SCREENS are showing NOTHING. we don't KNOW where they WENT
right yes that sucks to all the regular boring things that suck, we aren't allowed to exist, have jobs, we're gross untouchables etc at the same time though ... do the wachowskis not have $10M? why do cis people need to be involved?
![All of which makes it a genuine bummer to hear that Hollywood can’t scrape a measly $10 million to make Wachowski’s latest script, simply because she wants to make an action-thriller with an entirely trans cast. Per Variety, Wachowski was talking on KCRW’s The Business podcast last week when the topic of her script The Hunted (written with her partner Mickey Ray Mahoney) came up. Per Wachowski—who hasn’t directed a film since 2015’s Jupiter Ascending, with Lana taking over solo directing duties on The Matrix Resurrections—”People like it, but they really don’t want to make it because it’s [got a] wall-to-wall trans cast.”](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:veulpkuty7czgq3fftkwe3wq/bafkreihdmadfrygd5fan2vcjdziextlrnfsbqeqm2a2dhxl33iuom6juyu)

Hey everybody. I’ve seen the statement by Matt Karch, the CEO of Saber Entertainment, and all of the truly horrendous things he said about me. I think it should be obvious to anyone who reads that statement that he’s lashing out because he did not want people to know there was AI use in the game.
this is why dems gleefully buzz us in AI F-35s dropping laser-guided shit on our heads: you motherfucking beg for it, jaws agape like dirty little pigeon chicks clamoring for regurgitated trash at least PRETEND you won't endorse transphobia. shoot your own feet in private. leave mine the fuck alone
