Polanski expertly dismantling the "rich people will move if we tax them" narrative, while Denham nimbly demonstrates how very patriotic such people are.
Former Head of Comms for the IEA, Annabel Denham, says the super rich will leave if we have a wealth tax.

All the "free speech advocates" mean by "free speech" is their perceived right to their "free speech" by which they mean their right to be racist, transphobic, misogynistic hate mongers.

The rest of our free speech was never packaged into the deal, and anyway, they have nothing but contempt for it.

@paris.nyc @jeffjarvis.bsky.social Something I've said from the beginning: humans are the ones that give LLMs agency. We don't focus enough on that, instead, we just go after the LLM. www.helpnetsecurity.com/2025/06/04/l...
