Daigo on stream talking about Kemonomichi. He says he seriously planned on retiring if he lost to Mena. The reason being that since SF6 release he has not felt “strong” or the motivation to improve like in his youth in the arcade days. But after 3 months of training, in the final week before the match he thought, “Wait a minute. Am I strong again? This is what it felt like back in the day.” He was incredibly stressed the day before the match and couldn’t eat, and said just walking outside felt like he was already in the fight. He thought he wouldn’t be able to sleep due to stress, but surprisingly fell asleep easily - however when he woke up he had tears in his eyes. He doesn’t know why, but he thinks it’s because he had a dream where he quit Fighting Games. After he lost to Mena, he still thought it was time to retire. But in the taxi ride back to Tokyo, Eita kept bothering him and begging him not to. Daigo agreed just to shut him up, but then he thought back on that feeling of being strong in the last week and thought if he could keep that same motivation and approach he had for Kemonomichi, he could become strong again. For now he has decided to continue competing, but is taking a short rest after the set.

We can finally stop pretending we don’t know how OpenAI and the rest of the Silicon Valley AI cartel intend to stay profitable. The answer is, and always has been, war. If you consider the monstrous infrastructure required to sustain these systems. We are talking about colossal, billion-dollar data centers. We are talking about tens of millions of dollars burned daily just on cooling systems, the relentless, devastating strip-mining of the earth for rare-earth metals to build their GPUs, and the astronomical power consumption required to train these massive models. Then you'd realise that there is absolutely no way they are recouping hundreds of billions of dollars from $20 monthly subscriptions and a handful of API tokens. Every single wire, every server farm, and every algorithm was designed from the ground up for military contracts, autonomous weapons, and global surveillance. Mega-corporations are the true, unmasked face of evil we need to fear and not the pathetic, spineless puppet politicians they buy, lobby, and install into power to act as their PR mouthpieces. People condemn the "British Empire" for its savage imperialism in Nigeria, completely forgetting the Royal Niger Company, the ruthless, profit-driven private corporation that actually bought, sold, and brutalized the region while hiding behind a corporate charter. People remember Hitler as the singular monster of the Holocaust, but they conveniently grant amnesia to IBM, who built the punch-card tracking systems that organized the extermination camps. They forget JP Morgan, British Petroleum, Standard Oil, IG Farben, and the rest of the corporate titans that funded the fascist machine, supplied the fuel, and provided the logistical backbone that made such an industrialized horror a reality. People blame George W. Bush for the Iraq War which turned into dirty slaughterhouse that eradicated millions of Arab lives and sacrificed thousands of American troops. But they conveniently look the other way when it comes to Halliburton, Lockheed Martin, Raytheon, and the rest of the defense and oil conglomerates that bathed in the blood of the Middle East and walked away pocketing hundreds of billions of dollars. You look at these slick, modern corporations with their fancy campuses and you wonder how they sustain their endless wealth? The answer is terror, the answer is wars and endless wars. If the American hegemony were to miraculously collapse tomorrow, do you really think the wars would stop? Nope, not even for a second. These corporate parasites hold no loyalty to any flag. They will simply and happily pack up, migrate to another global superpower, change their letterheads, shuffle a few board members, and continue spreading terror and devastation across the globe to feed their own insatiable greed. It is an endless cycle of parasitic migration: from Britain, to Germany, and then directly into the veins of America. America today will beat its chest on the global stage, claiming to be the supreme fighter of "Antisemitism" and the supreme defender of human rights. Yet they conveniently omit that after World War II, under Operation Paperclip, the United States gleefully absorbed the very architects of the Nazi regime. It was the exact same fascist scientists, the complicit corporate bankers, the brutal intelligence officers, the chemical engineers, and the rocket manufacturers who facilitated the Holocaust that moved to America. The US swallowed them whole, along with their blood-stained equipment, their stolen trade secrets, and their patents. The only difference now is the crosshairs. Their target is no longer European Jews; the crosshairs are fixed squarely on the rest of the Global South. The names of the companies and their leaders have all changed, but the core, venomous philosophy of absolute imperialism is still very much alive, breathing, and hungry for its next war.

The right has no arguments like this, because it’s a vacant ideology of fear and selfishness. Their arguments are “nobody can tell me what to do” and “I should be allowed to kill who I want”

Hasan Piker: “If you steal from the poor, you become rich. If you steal from the wealthy, you go to prison. There’s only one direction where you can do unlimited theft. Wage theft is the most consequential amount of theft that takes place in the United States of America”

Amazon just got caught running a secret price manipulation operation with Levi's, Home Depot, Walmart, and many more. Every time you "comparison shopped" online, you were looking at prices that were already rigged. Here's what happened: Amazon would monitor prices on Walmart, Target, Best Buy, Home Depot, and Chewy in real time. The second a competitor listed a product cheaper than Amazon, they'd contact the brand directly and tell them to "fix it." And the exact emails are now PUBLIC. Amazon sent Levi's links to two Walmart listings with the subject line "styles of concern." They basically said the prices on Walmart are too low and we have a problem. The next day, Levi's responded: "I talked to Walmart and they have partnered with us to take Easy Khaki Classic fit back up to ladder SPP price, $29.99 immediately." Levi's literally called Walmart and told them to raise the price. Because Amazon told Levi's to make the call. Walmart complied. Then Amazon matched the HIGHER price. Both retailers ended up charging more. The customer paid extra. Nobody competed. Same playbook with Hanes: Amazon sent them links showing Target and Walmart prices were lower. Hanes confirmed they "reached out to Target and Walmart to have the prices increased." Target increased the prices. Walmart increased the prices. Amazon kept their margins. But it gets even worse... Amazon told Allergan (the company that makes eye drops) that their product was "suppressed" on Amazon because it was cheaper on another site. Allergan responded: "Walmart got their price back up to $16.99." Amazon then unsuppressed the listing. They did this with pet treats on Chewy. Furniture on Home Depot. Products across dozens of categories spanning YEARS. The mechanism is simple but terrifying: If you're a brand and you sell cheaper on Walmart than on Amazon, Amazon suppresses your product, removes you from the Buy Box, buries you in search results, and effectively makes you invisible to 300 million customers. Brands can't afford that. So they call Walmart and Target and say "raise your prices or we'll lose our Amazon listings." Walmart and Target comply because they need the brand's products. Amazon captures 40 cents of every dollar spent online in America. That gives them the leverage to set prices across THE ENTIRE internet. Not just their own platform. So turns out, you were never comparison shopping. You were looking at a coordinated price floor set by Amazon through backroom phone calls between brands and their competitors. "Amazon is working to make your life more unaffordable." 3 separate antitrust trials are now scheduled for 2027. The FTC has its own case. 18 states plus the DOJ are piling on. This is literally happening during the WORST affordability crisis in a generation. Groceries up 25% since 2020. Housing unaffordable. Wages flat. And the largest ecommerce company on Earth has been secretly coordinating with brands to make sure you can't find a cheaper price ANYWHERE. "Competition" in retail is just a fantasy.
