The All Things Political Topic - world tidings
I dunno, news organisations going against the orthodoxy, advocating for abandoning Ukraine, advocating for action to stop the Palestinian genocide. We have already seen organisations designated as terrorist, who are by any sane definition definitely not that. The kids would grow up smarter without rotting their brains with American aligned social media, but we can't have censorship, it's too dangerous to let it in.

It's not about porn, it's about censorship. The government can now ban sites that it deems "dangerous". It's a soft ban, but it will slow traffic to a crawl given that most people want nothing to do with the government id app that would be needed to unlock said sites. Said soft ban could be used as leverage for any number of political or repressive reasons. Soon enough there will be "dangerous ideas" that the children must be protected from. You can't just hope that governments won't abuse their power, they will, given enough time. So you have to be certain of your rights instead.

Everyone is free to speak their minds, and they should. You don't need permission from Ricky Gervais. His whole point was that no one cares, especially for something as self serving as an award show. Being a celebrity isn't an achievement in itself. If you are Billie Eilish or whomever you need to do better than grabbing the mike and roasting Trump and his billionaire buddies. Javier Bardem made a movie about the Palestinian genocide, I assume that's what it is, I haven't seen it. Doing that isn't free, there will be consequences for his career. That's not flexing, it's conviction.

the NRA were pussies all along, who would have thunk. They called for a full investigation, which is fine I guess, but the problem is that everyone have already seen evidence of murder that seems pretty indisputable, and the now sidelined Bovino openly stated that the agents responsible would never be identified. The FBI is used to close down investigations and taint evidence. I mean, what the hell kind of "full investigation" could there possibly be ? Meanwhile, I couldn't help but notice that Levit was adopting the olive green military look to complement Bovino. She's a one star Maga (on the shoulder button there) Bovino is a 3 star Maga, you know because he's commander of the Phoenix legions and the Maga armies in the north.

The TV and Streaming Thread: Enough episodes for syndication
a knigth of the seven kingdoms. It's..... alrigh I guess. It's deliberately slow paced, and world build focused, which is great. I'm just not sure whether I care about the protagonist.

AI doesn't *know* anything, it's a predictive algorithm, which means when it comes to something complex and open to interpretation, it often amplifies existing ignorance. For instance, it could very likely be trained on literature that is missing a crucial pov. Greenland is a net loss for Denmark, there are mineral rights, sure, but we don't pretend that Denmark profit from those, we just expect that if they strike it rich they will be able to pay their own way. Greenland stays with Denmark because it already has autonomy, and isn't really big enough for afford all the trappings of a state. We don't care about a strong strategic presence, or rather, it's problem to be solved, not a source of prestige. after 400 years there are a lot of Greenlanders with Danish roots, Danish is a second language still, so it's not really a question of what Greenland offers Denmark. The arrangement with Danish territories, we have 2, Faroe Islands and Greenland, stands for as long as they want it to. Also, Denmark is the colonial power that Greenland eventually made peace with. We made all the same mistakes as the Americans and the Canadians did with the Inuit tribes, but a lot of progress has been made to address them in the last decades. The Greenlanders don't trust the Maga Americans. They believe, probably correctly, that the minute the ink was dry on an annexation treaty with the US, they would dismiss the rights of indigenous people as they have done so many times in the past. Denmark meanwhile, has already granted them autonomy.- The All Things Political Topic - world tidings
