I asked DeepSeek: What happened to the Uyghurs in China?

Thx, but I’ll stick to non-china AI.

Bluesky has been flooded with automated reply bots - they'll offer a sort of confrontational opinion as a reply. They're pretty convincing and we all need to train ourselves to not reflexively reply to all responses until we check

Dead giveaway is new acct, few followers + original posts

Jeff Bezos never wanted this cartoon to become public.

He killed it, and as a result, pulitzer prize editorial cartoonist Ann Telnaes quit.

Make sure everyone sees this cartoon.

My father said to me, when I was a teenager, to never work for anybody else. That as soon as possible, start figuring out how to be your own boss, whatever that looks like. This isn’t a new discovery. Paid workers get stiffed. It’s called capitalism. It rewards it.
Do you know how much CEO pay has skyrocketed since 1978?

100%? 500%?

Try 1,085%

Meanwhile, the $7.25/hr fed. minimum wage hasn't budged in 15 years and the tipped min. wage has been $2.13/hr since 1991.

This is what I mean when I say the system is rigged.
CEO Pay Has Risen 1,085% Since 1978, But for Workers? Just 24% | Common Dreams
CEOs at top US companies saw their pay skyrocket by 1,085% since 1978, while typical worker pay only increased by 24%

This man is a war criminal.
Syria's oligarch dictator Bashar Assad has flown out to Russia unannounced. He's likely begging for more Russian troops or safe haven after rebels began their offensive on Aleppo.

I can’t tell you how different it is on X now after so many people have left. I have always followed mostly right-wing accounts because I cover them, and they are running out of people to pick fights with. So they’re just mostly fighting with each other.
