This isn’t just the worst version of Late Capitalism, it’s not just dystopian, it’s a mutilation of the human condition and what it means to be alive.
If you believe in such things, this is actual black magic.

What can Mobile Identify do?
404 Media downloaded a copy of the app and decompiled its code, a common practice among security researchers and technology journalists. While the Play Store page does not mention facial recognition, parts of the app’s code make clear references to scanning faces.

Here's a particularly weird one where an unnamed sends Epstein a text that says "Tommy Robinson. !! good work" then almost exclusively and repeatedly talk about Goebbels and Kristallnacht for a while before pivoting to talking about blood drawing.

A thing you're not seeing if you haven't checked Twitter in the last week is all the political betting markets (Polymarket, Kalshi) are actively caping for Cuomo and spreading Zohran conspiracies on there. Usually this would be a cause for some sort of regulatory oversight but that no longer exists.

A major weakness of the modern right is aesthetic tedium. So a key to taking back the narrative initiative is to art better. In ways that vault over the low bar of trad aesthetics. You have to be half-dead to not get bored by artistic production that endlessly panders to pre-1930s bourgeois tastes.
