Combine this with another quote from her:

"Totalitarianism, once in power, always replaces all first-class talents - regardless of their sympathies - with those cranks and fools whose lack of intelligence and creativity is still the best guarantee of loyalty."

Does it remind you of anything?

I feel like this photo of masked, armed men pepper spraying a pastor protecting his community is going to be a defining picture of this moment in America for a long, long time.

„a government can be constructed along the lines a #Frankenstate: an abusive form of rule, created by combining the bits and pieces of perfectly reasonable democratic institutions in monstrous ways. No one part is objectionable; the horror emerges from the combinations.”

This is how Trump ends democracy
The past week has revealed Trump’s road map to one-party rule. Will Americans let him follow it?

We're using #GPT5 / #AI like factories used electricity 150 years ago—swapping tools instead of rethinking systems. China gets it: they're rebuilding entire industries, while we are stuck optimizing.

From Steam Engines to AI: The 150-Year-Old Lesson We Need to Remember for GPT-5! — BJÖRN OGNIBENI 欧博洋
What we do with GPT-5 today mirrors how factories adopted electricity 150 years ago. Learn why AI success isn't about the model—it's about what you build with it.

Die Union hat die erste Energiewende systematisch sabotiert, die Solarbranche China übergeben und uns 2022 ins Gas-Desaster geführt. Okay. Schnee von gestern.

Aber jetzt machen sie genau dasselbe wieder: EE behindern, Netzausbau torpedieren und konsequent Gas fördern. Ernsthaft?

Warum?
Kampfansage von Reiche jetzt auch an die Erneuerbaren: “Völlig überzogen” nennt sie jetzt den erfolgreichen Ausbau der Erneuerbaren Energien beim BDI und kündigt an: Solar, Wind & Co. müssen unattraktiver werden!

Damit widerspricht sie klar dem Koalitionsvertrag.

Only the #Apple of 2025 can bring us "the biggest visual OS update ever" - and then your #iphone looks more & less the same... 😂

No wonder they stopped doing this in front of live audiences. The yawns would drown everything out. 🥱 #wwdc #ios26

Apple researchers have just published a potentially bombshell AI paper that shows real AGI is probably much farther away than all the current hype is trying to make us believe.
