Do you think Amazon funds anti-corporate shows like Fallout because they feel art doesn't pose any real level threat of an overthrow of the system it criticizes?

Do we watch this stuff to get our dose of rebellion and avoid the real fight? Not rhetorical.

I need book recommendations for the how the radicalisation pipeline works. Research for the birrin tale.

What are some good ones?

I have seen leftists talk about no one being illegal, and ending migration enforcement as a concept.

This isnt rehetorical; what are some suggested alternative systems? I would like to read about them.

How do you fight people rich enough to buy and then shutter the media, and modify narratives globally?

Will it be more citizen journalists?

Social media networks?

What do you think?

The thing is, I know so many men who have NOT been mentioned 38,000 times in the Epstein files.

It feels like maybe it is pretty easy to not be associated with a known child predator thousands of times.

My favorite genre of Epstein emails are powerful people emailing WITH JEFFREY EPSTEIN about how MeToo has gone too far and the woke mob must be stopped.

In this week's column I seek to explain Keir Starmer's flat refusal to change our electoral system, even though its gross unfairness could put Reform UK in power on <30% of the vote. The reasons, I believe, are deeply cynical and disturbing. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...
If Reform ever wins power in Westminster, it will be because of Labour’s cowardice | George Monbiot
Starmer could improve our unfair electoral system to stop the hard right, but he won’t. All the party has left are threats about ‘splitting the vote’, says Guardian columnist George Monbiot

Chomsky is quite the piece of shit huh
“The best way to proceed is to ignore it,” Chomsky wrote in a text Epstein sent to a lawyer and publicist. “That’s particularly true now with the hysteria that has developed about abuse of women, which has reached the point that even questioning a charge is a crime worse than murder.”
Newly released files shed new light on Chomsky and Epstein relationship www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

I cant switch from Photoshop because no other art program has 'Replace Color', a tool in PS that is critical to how I work.

I have never found any program with anything approaching its functionality, and it is how I achieve a lot of my texture.
Apart from the sunk cost/time what is keeping you from switching to a more open program?

Digital art was a disaster waiting to happen for a few reasons.

Artists no longer own our 'brushes', and indeed those tools are often owned by corporations above accountability.

These companies are run by people who do not care about or understand culture.

It was a trap.

I have spent my career mastering Adobe Photoshop and I think its a coin-flip whether Photoshop is closed down and all Adobe software is combined into an AI prompt box.

Saw Adobe Animate was going down, so I figured I'd help anyone still using it with this immortal handy dandy graph

I AM FURIOUS.

Adobe Animate remains an industry standard for TV animation. Star Trek: Lower Decks was made in Animate. Haunted Hotel was made in Animate. My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic was made in Animate.

And because you can't buy a permanent licence anymore, it'll just be gone.

Please CHRIST look at the UK; Starmer’s Labour didn’t win the last election; the Conservatives lost it. The thing to do is to *BURN AWAY* Schumer, Jeffries et al through direct action, protests, primaries. You and I are in charge (sorry! but also: congrats!) Catch up with us, Dems, or be retired.
the thing is, the way it looks right now democrats are going to do really well even by default. dont have to go on record promising anything, dont need to be bold, dont need to put themselves out there and theyll probably get control

thats just not good enough
