She's actually a traitor to America who allows herself to be used in foreign influence operations.
If Roger Stone and Mike Flynn had it their way, they would have stopped Trump in the 2024 primaries with a half-baked scheme to use contested delegates against him.

Many of the cornerstone aspects that make capitalism so powerful have been eroded.
Capitalism is:
- private ownership of productive assets: this we have made widely available. Almost anyone can start a ltd company, pool resources, raise investment and build a balance sheet of productive assets (although we probably need better education on this) ✅
- increased competition to improve quality and lower price: sadly many of the biggest industries are winner-take-all and must be treated like monopolies and broken up to restore genuine competition. ⚠️
- clear price signals so that markets can respond: sadly high government spending and subsidising creates market distortions. We need to reduce the influence of government and restore genuine price signals. ⚠️
- healthy markets so consumers can freely chose how to spend their time and money: sadly the costs of high taxation and the existence op monopolies leaves many consumers with limited disposable income and fewer choices. ⚠️
- many available options for workers to sell their labour to: good jobs have been concentrated around expensive cities and fewer good jobs exist in regional areas. Workers have been put in direct competition with cheap foreign labour with lower working standards. ⚠️

Unpopular opinion, we don’t actually live in a capitalist society.

@NocIntellect @DursinsBN Gain of function research isn't banned by international law and what evidence is there that this was being conducted from these labs? None? 🤭
English
@DursinsBN FYI, what they were doing with gain of function research is against international law. Did your country catch Covid? Was your country forced to take vaccinations for Covid? Did you like it? Was it fun?

One of the most troubling aspects of the Palestine Action/Elbit case is the moral psychology involved.
It is what happens when a political cause becomes a total identity and creates the opportunity for malign actors to exploit it.
Once “Palestine” is transformed from a cause into a sacred symbol of moral standing, ordinary ethical boundaries begin to collapse. Violence is described as “direct action,” criminal damage as “solidarity,” arrest as “repression,” and prison as martyrdom.
The worker in the factory, the police officer with a family, the public frightened by political violence, even the activist discarding their own future, all fade into a heroic narrative about resistance.
It is radicalisation. Outrage narrows the mind; group approval encourages escalation; online applause replaces conscience. The slogan provides moral permission, and the crowd offers emotional insulation. Every consequence is then reinterpreted as proof that the system is evil, making self-correction nearly impossible.
The most tragic aspect is how cheaply lives are destroyed. People with futures sacrifice them for a fantasy of moral purity. Supporters enjoy the warm glow of righteousness. The accused face the sentence, the criminal record, the terrorist notification requirements, and the ruin of adulthood.
You can care about Palestinians without excusing political violence. You can condemn civilian suffering without romanticising criminality or being duped by false propaganda narratives about “genocide”.
Having a just cause does not make a person just. Sometimes the most dangerous lie people tell themselves is that because they have chosen the “right side”, anything they do in its name must be good.

This is Gaza on a regular day.
A huge crowd packs the street while Hamas fighters walk around openly with rifles and heavy weapons. People are cheering, filming on their phones, and one guy even fires an RPG right there in the middle of it all. Smoke everywhere, everyone celebrating.
These are the same “innocent civilians” we keep hearing about. They’re not hiding from Hamas. They’re cheering them on.

Everything the "pro-Pali" crowd accused Israel of is, in fact, what Hamas is guilty of.
There's absolutely no footage of the IDF treating Gazans like this 👇
However, as I pointed out in another post, there's an abundance of footage coming out of Gaza almost daily showing Hamas "in 4K" and how they treat their own people.

Just having a play with Comfy desktop AI models. I asked to it make a rudimentary low resolution animation on a fairly high spec PC and it just laughed at me. Easy to see why the AI revolution is stalling. What people actually want is unlimited creative potential for free, and all the RAM in the world cannot deliver that. Most of what we're seeing (AI slop) is the output of loss-making technology demonstrators based on a convergence of fairly old technologies. No way plebs like us are getting close to the real deal this side of 2035.

This is a really good point. As the confirmation of combatant deaths in Gaza continues to rise, as the fantasy academic papers about 100s of 1000s of dead get proved wrong, as S Africa beg for more ICJ time, their genocide narrative falls apart, so they must escalate.
dan linnaeus@DanLinnaeus
Worth noting that Mehdi Hasan’s recent hate binge and rhetorical escalation are also a sign that his cause is losing its sway over the Western public and a bid for in-group cohesion. He’s had to attack Seinfeld, John Cleese, Bari Weiss, and Mark Dubowitz in the span of the last 24 hours alone to do damage control within his cohorts, which are losing steam and legitimacy. It’s incendiary and not to be taken lightly, but the doubling down seems to stem from realizing his narratives are unwinding and need defending.

Also, this is problematic because it implicates the U.S. Government in funding the alleged “biolabs”.
Why would the government declassify something that could put a target on our back from Vladimir Putin?
English
Notice how they are focusing on Ukraine in this announcement…
It’s alleged the U.S. funded biolabs in 30+ countries but for some reason chose to emphasize the ones in Ukraine.
The U.S. government is actively trying to bolster Putin’s propaganda narrative for invading Ukraine.
DNI Tulsi Gabbard@DNIGabbard
Today, I’m releasing never before seen intelligence revealing new evidence of past US government funding for more than 120 biolabs in over 30 countries, including Ukraine. In support of President Trump‘s Executive Order to end federal funding of dangerous gain of function research around the world, and increase transparency and accountability, ODNI will continue working with partners across the Administration to identify where these labs are, what pathogens they contain, and what “research” is being conducted. odni.gov/index.php/news…

I was expecting this since last year, when Metaplanet was reclassified into Investment Banks/Brokers.
Now the Siiibo Securities acquisition makes the direction much harder to ignore.
This is no longer just a Bitcoin treasury company. Metaplanet is building regulated capital markets infrastructure around Bitcoin in Japan.
The market may still price it like a treasury vehicle, but the company is clearly positioning itself as a Bitcoin financial platform.
