Really it’s a wild strategy to instill an entire generation with such a level of existential dread that they basically believe their futures are forfeit dead-ends, and then also tell them “if you talk back to us we’re going to kill you”. Almost have to admire the uh, boldness of it all

I‘ve said for a while that the age of social media might be coming to an end because the relative cultural conditions that enabled it (nominally open liberalism) are, themselves, coming to an end and this kinda feels like that. LLM spam/slop, widespread nazism, nihilist terror etc kill social media.
WOW! Major change being tested on Facebook

A bookseller could be arrested for displaying 1984.

Elon Musk's mother moved to South Africa in the year Apartheid was created, and she and Elon left the year it ended. The last Apartheid Prime Minister, a man who refused to testify at the Truth and Reconciliation Committee, was a family friend who stayed at their home. This is not a crazy theory.
