Trump calls human beings “vermin,” “garbage,” “diseases,” “poison,” and “animals.”

Then, when I rightfully point out that the same dehumanizing language has been used by fascist regimes to justify humanity’s worst atrocities—Republicans lose their minds.

Give me a break.

too many people just focus on supply side of foreigners using tech for disinformation. Its the demand side - American society is broken yet wealthy - that makes it a business model

(for the record, the British do not teach schoolkids about the Falklands, mostly because we don't particularly care about the Falklands in themselves, just about things like fascist invasions.)

also a classic instance of how propaganda works. the most embedded stuff is the stuff you are taught when you are a small child as 'geographical facts', in the same way that even anti-CCP PRC citizens can sometimes turn into rabid nationalists about South China Sea rocks

every time Argentineans post their little crybully rants about the Falklands it's a reminder of the mentality that resulted in their incompetent fascist junta getting hundreds of their own conscript soldiers killed in an unprovoked invasion.

Good piece here. Similar thoughts in ways to what @harrisalexc.bsky.social reported on earlier in hurricane season. AI/ML in weather forecasting is not the AI slop that’s taking over everything else. These tools under care of a human will play big and important roles in science going forward.
