Once you start thinking of AI as a war on humanity, on human thought, on human inquiry, on human labor, on nuance and critical thinking, it slots in pretty seamlessly with the right wing ideological project, oligarchical political projects, big tech's political projects, etc

My wife and I visited the African-American Museum in D.C. a year ago. It was overwhelming — and unforgettable. We left knowing we’d be back.
If Trump succeeds in deleting our history from the museum, there’ll be nothing left. This is what erasure looks like —and it’s happening right in front of us.

Trump’s Wager and the Avengers Initiative
People and institutions are collaborating with Trump because they believe that a future Democratic president won’t punish them. That should change.

First, it was covert operative Jack Skellington breaking their ranks. Then we got Krampus embedded in their parades. By 2030, we'll have fully implemented Operation Mari Lwyd and this long, brutal War on Christmas will finally be over.
