"my least woke opinion is---"
That's enough. We've had enough people indulging in the "thrill of a little conservatism", as a treat. Of considering reactionary thought to be a salacious and taboo in a world descending into reactionary mania.
Give me your MOST woke opinions. We're bringing it back.

It takes a strange sort of worldview to watch the Irish public elect a socialist, with the largest mandate in the history of the state, and conclude that what they really want is a tougher line on immigration.

Given that Connolly got the biggest personal mandate in the history of the state AND the highest percentage of first preferences ever in a presidential election, anyone in media engaging this pereniial fuckwit for analysis is pissing in your eye and telling you it's soda water.

I 100% endorse this message. The spoiled votes are a 3rd or 4th order story in this election and disproportionate attention and airtime is a measure of the level of editorial discomfort with talking about Connolly’s success and FF/FG failure.
Catherine Connolly got more votes than any other president in history - any pol corr or commentator trying to convince you that the story is actually the spoiled votes is showing you their whole arse, and should be treated accordingly.

The AI industry wants us to believe AI superintelligence is the real threat from generative AI.
But that narrative was crafted to distract from the many ways genAI is being used to tear our societies apart, as we saw this week when a deepfake video rocked the Irish election. It must be reined in.

Generative AI is a societal disaster
Governments are deluding themselves into believing investment justifies allowing AI to upend society

Shaming and shunning the right, prosecuting them relentlessly when they break laws, driving them back under their rocks is the solution to the problem. Not ‘education’ or ‘debating’ or “look at this guy, LOOK AT HIM” posting.

Last night's violence at Citywest Hotel will do nothing for the young victim of sexual assault.
People are absolutely right to be angry. It is horrendous that a vulnerable 10 year old girl in state care was not protected. Don't let that anger be directed at other vulnerable people.

I will add "people having extremely loud video calls without at least earphones in" to this list also
people playing music/videos on their phone speakers in public is more than just mildly annoying and is instead a leading indicator of the decline of community and empath

A good way to keep your protest high going is to make a donation today to a group that's been doing the work. An abortion fund, a group that feeds the unhoused, a group that assists immigrants...Lots of fascism fighters out there stay needing your money.
