The worst thing about the internet is it allows those who have absolutely no idea what they’re talking about to present their baseless opinions as authoritative consensus.

On the issue of terrorism connections, which British ministers and officials gave special immunity from prosecution to the visiting head of the Israeli air force who was ordering the bombardment of Gaza? When will they face a court? declassifieduk.org/israeli-a…

"Contradictory as they may be, all these arguments and anxieties fit neatly into the overarching message of the people building this technology: AI’s dominance is inevitable. Get on board or you will be left behind" theguardian.com/technology/2…

Michael Gove - editor of the Spectator, Orwell Prize judge & overseer of the biggest electoral fraud in modern UK history - apparently upset that I called out his boss’s investment in Palantir after he ran a sycophantic pro-Palantir piece

One of the most emblematic images I've come across yet that captures the dehumanising extraction of Predictive Capital. Here, gig workers in India are not only forced to where cameras to record their labour but to perform it using simplified robot pincers. x.com/VaibhavSisinty/status/…

Wouldn't it be great if we all agreed to watch only the world cup matches played in Mexico and no one watched a single clip of any game played in the US?

A duck wearing a Mexico shirt casually walking through the streets of Mexico 😭 I'll never forgive FIFA for not hosting the entire World Cup there.

Scale of sentences on the 4 young people who took direct action against the arms supplier to Israel is truly shocking. To impose years of imprisonment for protesting to save lives in Gaza is unjust, especially sentencing on terrorist grounds they were never convicted of by a jury

Fuck the billionaires and the trillionaire.

I spent all day in Woolwich Crown Court yesterday for the Filton activists' sentencing hearing with my colleague @daniaakkad. The court heard that the Terrorism Act was never intended to cover direct action protest. It heard that all of the defendants had been cleared of violent intent and sentencing them as terrorists would mark a historic first for charges of criminal damage. It heard that the Suffragettes, who did "a bit of smashing themselves", would have been labelled as terrorists but have now been vindicated by history. It heard the activists' goal was to stop the supply chain of drones and weaponry to Israel as it commits genocide in Gaza. It heard that attaching a terrorism connection to a case without it ever being heard by a jury was unconstitutional and posed a threat to the criminal justice system itself. It heard that the "terrorism connection" has been disproportionately used against minority groups and those advocating for them while not being used for neo-Nazis and white supremacists, including the man who killed Jo Cox MP. It heard that the law has been reinterpreted since the action took place, meaning the activists could have had no idea that what they did could have been caught up in terrorism laws at the time of the protest. It heard that the prosecution submitted key evidence just eight days before the hearing, giving the defence no time to review it or even discuss it with their clients. Despite all of this, Judge Jeremy Johnson, who has already tried to refer the defence's lead barrister for contempt of court and been forced to apologise for it, sentenced the defendants as terrorists. The judgment was handed down within minutes, indicating Judge Johnson had already made his mind up before the hearing had begun. Being in court yesterday felt akin to witnessing a colonial crime: punishing activists with terrorism offences in order to set a precedent that taking direct action to stop a UK-backed genocide will not be tolerated.

This response to the riots is absolutely spot on. Please give it a read: steviesyerda.substack.com/p/…

Workers are now forced to train their replacement. This is true for manual workers forced to wear cameras, and it is true of white-collar workers whose devises record them. Yet this predictive apparatus runs far deeper than that: Predictive Capital creativeapplications.net/the…

Londoners are rightfully concerned that an event promoting land confiscation & destruction of homes is due to take place - so I put this question directly to the Mayor today.    I welcome his strong condemnation. But condemnation is not enough, this event must be cancelled.

A 25-year-old housewife in Chennai earns ₹250/hour ($3) just by doing her normal housework. She wears a phone on her head and records herself making coffee, cutting fruit, folding laundry. These first-person videos get sent to AI companies training humanoid robots to handle real-world tasks. She shoots 90 clips a day. Her quote: "Who else will pay you ₹250/hour ($3) an hour just for doing housework?" She's part of a growing gig economy in India where thousands are doing the same thing, filming everyday life to train the robots of tomorrow.

The worst part is him saying the strike on the elementary school in Minab (that killed 168 schoolchildren and teachers) "is a use case that doesn't even violate our red lines."

Another elderly peaceful Palestine Action anti-genocide protester has just been arrested outside Woolwich Crown Court for holding a sign. The utter fiasco undertaken by the British state to protect Israel at the expense of its own citizens goes on unabated.

10,000 children die every single day from hunger. Every day. That’s 70,000 a week, and 3.6 million a year. I know this means nothing to those incapable of empathy, but for those of us who do care about others, it does. Musk wakes up every morning and chooses not to help.

John Healey’s replacement as defence secretary is Dan Jarvis, who was listed as a friend of Israel before LFI removed this webpage.
