Doing things in Chile

Still can't get over how Apple and Google removed the ICE app that alerted people that ICE was in the their community, but won't remove an app that has an AI tool that creates 'nonconsensual sexualized images of women and CHILDREN'
X’s Grok AI tool is being used to generate nonconsensual sexualized images of women and children. This is unacceptable. @wyden.senate.gov, @markey.senate.gov, and I are demanding that Apple and Google remove X and Grok from their app stores until Elon Musk addresses these heinous violations.
Senators urged Apple and Google to remove X and Grok from app stores over sexual deepfakes
“Turning a blind eye to X’s egregious behavior would make a mockery of your moderation practices,” three Democratic senators wrote to Apple’s and Google’s CEOs.

Shamelessly fanning the flames and shamelessly practicing the politics of selective killing. When Israel exterminates families and starves children to death, she stays mum.
Tehran’s streets, and cities around the world, echo with the footsteps of Iranian women and men demanding freedom.

Freedom to speak, to gather, to travel and above all to live freely.

Europe stands fully behind them.

NYT is so awful. Trump encourages Stormtroopers to kill and abduct citizens in the US, but the NYT writes as if he cared about democracy in Iran. Just say that something's off. Just report at least a tiny bit of truth.
The Iranian foreign minister said on Monday that the country was prepared for war but was also ready to negotiate, after President Trump said he was “ looking at some very strong options” to curb Iran’s harsh repression of anti-government protests.

America voters cried out for more war, fewer rights, higher prices, fewer jobs, less healthcare, more corruption, fewer allies, more bigotry, less equality, more lies, more criminality, and less democracy. And they got what they voted for, even if some didn’t realize that’s what they were doing.

Note to the entire world: Stop trying to manage Trump. Stop trying to work with him. He betrays everyone. Always. He is irrational. Erratic. The only way to stop his damage is to stop him, contain him, isolate him, reject him, stand up to him. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

The reactionary centrist logic is simple: if the left does something bad it’s the left’s fault, and if the right does something bad, it’s also the left’s fault for making them do it. It’s a simple formula and once you see it every one of their arguments is the same

Orange guy is definitely running Venezuela
Oops.

“US citizens in Venezuela should leave the country immediately…

“There are reports of groups of armed militias, known as colectivos, setting up roadblocks and searching vehicles for evidence of US citizenship or support for the United States.”

Maybe award the prize to someone with integrity next time, not someone who’s happy to grovel before racists and pedophiles
The Norwegian Nobel Prize committee has been forced to make a statement, declaring that the prize cannot be transferred.

I now firmly believe Trump’s handlers are constantly showing him AI slop content - created to support those handlers own individual, often-clashing agendas.

Lots of gender going on with this lot
So much of what’s happening right now is happening so people like Stephen miller, Donald trump, and jd Vance can feel like a big man

It’s not to help anyone or ameliorate anything, it’s just so they can feel good about themselves

That’s it

If Trump uses military force against Denmark, that would be a world historical disaster on the scale that dwarfs what just happened in Venezuela (which is a BFD in itself). It would blow up NATO and alienate all of our allies in Europe, and Canada would side with Europe.

He made lots of mistakes, but he will be missed. Fascism is impending and will make Chile a complete subordinate to the US
Leaders who pay homage and act servilely toward US President Trump in an attempt to win his favor "only humiliate themselves," Chilean President Boric says. "Trump (and his administration) not only permanently violate international law, but human dignity itself."

That’s a pretty direct threat against Chile, the world’s biggest copper producer. From March, a Trump-loving fascist will govern Chile. He’d have to sell submission then, angering his supporters and China, which practically owns the local economy. Or the fascists fight each other.
MILLER: The US is using its military to secure our interests unapologetically in our hemisphere. We're a superpower. It's absurd we'd allow a nation in our backyard to become a supplier of resources to our adversaries

TAPPER: Sovereign countries shouldn't be able to do what they want?

Clearly shows the racists’ ignorance. LatAm is pretty much governed by US-aligned fascists who were elected in landslides. Colombia and Brazil could follow this year. A revolutionary left is virtually non-existent. War for oil is a waste of everything. It would mean attacking ideological allies.
Prominent MAGA figures are making it 100% explicit that MAGA is a neo-imperialist movement that's all about pillage and plunder justified by assumed racial superiority:

He’ll hand his fascist friends in the hemisphere a veritable refugee problem. In Chile, J. A. Kast takes office in March and was elected on promises to mercilessly deport Venezuelans. But, being a fascist, he’s stupid and has not thought about the ramifications of occupying another country.
Removing a vile, brutal, and corrupt president without a clear transition plan, and relying on his former regime to deliver if for you, is not supporting democracy. It is a prescription for chaos, writes Christopher Sabatini.
Trump Has no Real Plan for Venezuela
The U.S. president is snubbing the democratic opposition.
