First they came for literally every immigrant and person of color
And I did not speak out because they lied that they were only coming for DEI and violent criminals

Then they came for queer and trans folks
And I did not speak out because of some bullshit about children's sports

Every couple years someone goes through the math of Smaug's wealth, and most estimates are around $50 billion or so.

Which is only *one third* of the net worth of the 10th richest billionaire, Amancio Ortega.

Yeah, it has long been the case that adult-oriented businesses have to be careful or risk the wrath of everyone from prosecutors to payment-processing companies, but "prominent social media company owned by world's richest person swiftly became world's largest CSAM producer" produces no reaction.
Elon Musk chatbot repeatedly making CSAM on demand should be one of the single biggest stories right now and it's effectively a collective shrug instead

When you lay it all out it's gotta be among the most evil technologies in human history.
& "generative" AI isn't ethically neutral tech either: it's trained on massive amounts of stolen intellectual property, an attack on artists & writers; it heavily pollutes areas near data centers, an attack on the poor & marginalized; it exists to undermine labor, spread misinformation, & subjugate.

What (and I can’t stress this enough)

THE FUCK.
WH sources say Venezuela's opposition leader committed the "ultimate sin": She accepted the Nobel Peace prize.

“If she had turned it down and said, ‘I can’t accept it because it’s Donald Trump’s,’ she’d be the president of Venezuela today,” one said.

Every editor after decades of being sued by politicians: hm we can’t just accuse him of a crime in the banner headline. Let’s go with TRUMP CAPTURES MADURO IN UNORTHODOX MILITARY OPERATION, RAISING LEGAL CONCERNS

Trump: no no I kidnapped him. it was a crime. I love crimes they’re my favorite
Q: Rodriguez called it a 'kidnapping' of Maduro

TRUMP: That's alright. That's not a bad term.

Not sure how bad the deepfake problem is? Read Stella's farewell thread.

This is an extreme form of remote sexual harassment that can now be used to target anyone, regardless of platform, in seconds. Despite news stories focusing mostly on CSAM it's still unchecked and rampant on Twitter.
I‘m discontinuing my social media use for the foreseeable future and I want to explain why.

I woke up in the new year to discover that some guy on here had saved photos I took on New Year’s Eve and used Grok to remove my clothes. I know this because he showed me.

The Purpose Of A System Is What It Does. and right now, this system is harassing and sexually assaulting women on an unprecedented scale. it is actively reifying the sexualization of women and the patriarchal control of women. it is the world's shiniest and newest boot.

you can claim "the technology itself is neutral" all you want but the combination of AI censor/label tech on this website with the disgusting stories like stella's below demonstrate that this tech has a very specific purpose: control over women's bodies

People asking me "Well what are the Democrats SUPPOSED to do in opposition?"

They can try opposition. For a start.
Some Democrats hate that their party is largely positioning itself in opposition to the operation that resulted in Maduro's capture.

"Everything Trump touches must be bad according to the base," one House Dem told @axios.com

Said another: "It looks weak." www.axios.com/2026/01/04/m...

Yeah, so I checked in this and it’s true. Bonkers. But true.

“And the Russians at this particular juncture were signaling very strongly that they wanted to somehow make some very strange swap arrangement between Venezuela and Ukraine.”

From: d3i6fh83elv35t.cloudfront.net/static/2019/...
During Fiona Hill's testimony to Congress on Oct 14, 2019, she described how Trump and Putin discussed exchanging Ukraine for Venezuela. The quid pro quo was if Trump refuses to help Ukraine fight off a Russian invasion, Putin would not help Venezuela (a Russian ally) resist a US takeover.

Reminder that almost a quarter century ago, Schumer voted for the Hague Invasion Act, declaring that the US would militarily invade the Hague were it ever to be prosecuted by ICC for war crimes.

Biden did too, it was an overwhelmingly bipartisan agreement to be unaccountable to international law.
Look at how many names on this list are *still in power*, still kicking around. They weren't exactly young then, but now a lot of them are much much richer.

the reason people sometimes act madder at democrats than republicans when republicans do impossibly evil shit is the same reason why, if you hired an exterminator to handle a roach infestation and he showed up to feed and play with them instead, your first instinct wouldn’t be to yell at the roaches

I don’t love you and I’m not holding your hand: call your Senator and tell them that the must shut down the government on January 30th until this ends, a thing that Democrats have the hard power to do at this very moment.
I love you all and am holding your hand as I say this:

Dems wield zero hard power levers
it's kind of crazy that there's even any question that democrats are going to do anything about this

A concept I've been meaning to float to make sense of what's happened to the US Constitution is an idea from the British constitutional tradition: "implied repeal."

It's useful because it helps us to understand that Article I, & much else of the US Constitution, has been implicitly repealed.
