I say this a lot, but it is always fascinating to observe who is permitted to be a victim in our society and whose harm gets ignored
This is really bad; Grok is now going into is third day of regularly producing nonconsensual deepfake pornography and nobody is doing anything about it. The "Mechahitler" and "white genocide" episodes were stopped much more quickly. I suppose this tells us all about relative priorities.

Very good thread but I just wonder what the underlying economics of all this look like if Trump is perceived as vulnerable domestically and the energy firms that will have to execute the resource state international he wants to build don’t play ball.
1/Leaders are abducted/allies are threatened but pundits and governments are scratching their heads on what the US is doing. Danish PM on Greenland "It makes absolutely no sense". Why? Because actors using old IR models when we need a new lens. Enter neo-royalism.

This is nineteenth century Great Power “sphere of influence” talk, essentially no different than Russia‘s view of Ukraine or the rest of its “near abroad.”
It’s been said before, but really worth underlining now: The Trump admin is overthrowing the very post-1945 world order the US itself built.
