The sense of scale in the OGs is just on another level it's so cool.

@plibt1 I've got a son flying back from HCMC. I'm still puking up cos I feel the same way. But tonight, I'm having my fake peace.

@redlantern650 Im still leaning towards fighting resumes after market close.

@plibt1 Closing rank with the Euro idiots in today's summit. Something to do with paying back the Russians for helping Iran. I'm going to read about the deal now, is it the offer to help Ukraine to get nuclear weapons?
English
@plibt1 I saw your reply to Mark Ames, I was listening to Radio War Nerd today, and I thought, yh, I would concur, then I realised we both follow each other but I haven't had any of your stuff in my tl. So a bit catching up. We're in June right? Any updating of thoughts?
English
@plibt1 Thought so, you look the type. Sorry it took so long to visit your account. Treasure trove!

@Tetradugenikid Elon just a character to fleece people to fund stuff the state/mic was gonna do anyway.

Tesla's valuation is based on monopolizing all fleet cars on earth with robotaxis.
spacex's valuation is based on fucking outer space data centers and martian colonization.
You might as well give money to a tiktok energy healer

Guy who’s disappointed by the Iran peace deal because he was hoping for a U.S. unconditional surrender instead of a strategic surrender.
English
We have the text, the deal is absolutely terrible, there's no getting around it. The text gives Iranians huge, immediate financial benefits and protection for Hezbollah in exchange for opening the Strait - and nothing else.
President Trump should renege.
English
@MarkAmesExiled Or the deal isnt fake and they need to close ranks with the euros because they lost the me. I doubt we are there yet though.
English
If so, and that’s a big if, it’s payback for Russia helping Iran; Which was payback for Trump approving Ukraine deep strikes into Russia/ on Ru oil; which was payback for Putin not giving Trump his ceasefire, etc.
But Trump also vengeful at Europe for not helping his Iran war.
Alex Wickham@alexwickham
Trump’s shift back closer toward the European position on Ukraine looks to be confirmed in this G7 statement overnight - the US has signed up to language backing more military support for Ukraine and stronger sanctions on Russia - that’s a significant win for Starmer/Macron/Merz

@opinonhaver We have treated crime the same way through all of history. It obviously isnt the answer. I am not saying prisons are unnecessary, but they are trying to sweep the core problems under the rug. Law and order types are sheep with a vengeance fetish.
English
key to understanding a lot of people's beliefs is that they think "criminal" is a type of inherent identity, rather than a labelled applied to you as a result of your relationship with specific laws. things that impact "criminals" will never impact me, because I am not a criminal
Peter Wolf@peterawolf
I’ve encountered a chilling number of people in everyday life who sincerely believe that only the guilty get targeted by security forces, and therefore anyone targeted by security forces must be somehow guilty—cops, ICE, doesn’t matter: the Men in Uniform only do this to Bad Guys

@NotPotBol @acrid1949 Ehhhhh i think china had to do it. I dont know if they still have too, but it put them in a position to undercut western monopolies or co-op their new tech. I dont think it can really be replicated.
English
@acrid1949 I believe that they could achieve similar or greater results by doubling down on planned economies, especially in the modern technological era.
I believe the opening up to foreign capital, even if they retain control of it, has steered them too far from the socialist path to 1/
English
I mean the steps are pretty simple
1. Proletarian revolution
2. Actually build some basic functioning infrastructure and industry
3. Let the west give you infinite money in investment
4. Retain control over all the new stuff stuff being made with the investment.
PJ@PJ11819211
Everyone leftie econ guys are Chinamaxxing, but never giving instructions on poor countries can replicate China's success. Usually just vague gestures on cheap electrcity and EVs are going to be to the world, fair enough, but never concrete instructions on what to do.
English
@NotPotBol China is gonna make it alot easier by electrifying alot of the world in the next ten years
English
@ripplebrain This makes me adjust my opinion of the deal having a 0% chance of being real to a 5% , if they have truly given up the me it makes sense that they would need to close rabks with the euros
English
@GavinSBaker China decided to stop importing oil
This idea we are in some grand rivalry with China when they basically bailed the US out of a major energy crisis doesn’t really hold water anymore
English
Kinda wild how wrong most energy experts were about the Straits of Hormuz.
What were the root causes of the error? China had more reserves than anticipated, US flexed up exports faster and more ships were actually transiting the straits via the Omani route?
Genuinely curious.

@rickjeff78 I dont think they have the money yet they were talking about structuribg it as a loan owed to the gulf states. I dint see iran going for that

@NKY_Leftist Elon is just a prop for deep tech stuff the state was going to fund anyway. They just realized they could fkeece people as well

The 4th largest company in the world. It doesn't produce anything. It doesn't make money. It has no plans to make money. It wouldn't even have stayed afloat if not for taxpayer dollars. I mean y'all cannot be serious rn

@weewoono @paleonormie I dont know how anyone convinces themself its anything but theatrics

Serves em right for playing the “this is too dangerous for the public” game

Some members of Anthropic’s board and senior leadership cannot be in the same room as a Mythos deployment right now or even talk to their colleagues about it. I don't think this was the result that safetyists wanted.
