  • But that doesn’t leave many options for the victims. Maddie, who said she’s a 23-year-old pre-med student, woke up on New Year’s Day to an image that horrified her. On X, she had previously published a picture of herself with her boyfriend at a local bar, which two strangers altered using Grok.

    I’ve thought a lot of things would kill twitter…

    But if every time a woman posts a picture of herself, and neckbeards reply asking twitter AI to sexualize her, and the AI responds right there with it where everyone following the original account can see…

    I truly don’t understand how or why any women are still using it.



  • The reason this stuff is important to understand, is so we can fight it effectively and prevent it from happening again:

    Sociopathy is normal human variation…

    It’s associated with criminals, because the earliest definitions required criminality, so the only population they’d check were violent criminals, which reinforced flawed beliefs that every sociopath was a violent criminal. Medical community is making progress, but it’ll likely take decades to shake that stigma so it can actually be studied properly.

    Shit, a high enough IQ is almost guaranteed to come along with ASPD.

    trump is way worse than just someone with ASPD, he’s most likely making a conscious effort not to care about others if it benefits himself, or even enjoys hurting others. Someone with actual ASPD doesn’t get joy from hurting people, they just don’t really care unless they’re putting a conscious effort into caring.

    Which many do. But many people without ASPD want to cause pain, because they’re shitty people and fully understand what the people they’re hurting feel, if trump couldn’t feel the suffering of others in anyway, he wouldn’t go out of his way to hurt so many people.


  • It’s crazy how many people try to be smug about this.

    All you’re doing is telling everyone it took shit this blatant and obvious for you to notice if you think this is a new problem.

    I understand being ignorant of another country’s system of government, but how do you not know all the fucked up shit that’s been happening before this to think it’s new?

    The “big 3” have been doing this shit for centuries, and before that it was just different countries.

    Shuffling the countries around like you want to won’t solve shit. It just perpetuates the system itself…

    Have you put any thought into this?



  • To reach their conclusions, the study authors focused on the idea of cover-ups, the belief that organizations and governments deliberately hide the truth from the public. They surveyed 253 people from several countries, asking them to rate statements such as “politicians usually do not tell us the true motives for their decisions” and “government agencies closely monitor all citizens.”

    Uh…

    Someone should let the researchers out of the lab occasionally…

    If anyone disagreed with:

    “politicians usually do not tell us the true motives for their decisions” and “government agencies closely monitor all citizens.”

    Then they either live in some random Nordic utopia, or they’re the crazy ones.

    Like, an international child rape ring involving multiple world leaders is the biggest news story of the decade, but only two people went to prison over it and one is about to get pardoned.

    It’s 2026 and you’re crazy if you don’t believe in at least one conspiracy.






  • Because Epstein took over for Maxwell’s dad…

    A spy who was at least double, maybe triple agent who had the current and multiple former Israeli PMs at his funeral…

    The British Foreign Office suspected Maxwell of being a secret agent of a foreign government, possibly a double agent or a triple agent, and “a thoroughly bad character and almost certainly financed by Russia”. He had known links to the British Secret Intelligence Service (MI6), to the Soviet KGB, and to the Israeli intelligence service Mossad.[60]

    Shortly before Maxwell’s death, Ari Ben-Menashe, a former employee of Israel’s Military Intelligence Directorate, approached a number of news organisations in Britain and the US with the allegation that Maxwell and the Daily Mirror’s foreign editor, Nicholas Davies, were both long-time agents for Mossad. Ben-Menashe also claimed that, in 1986, Maxwell informed the Israeli Embassy in London that Mordechai Vanunu revealed information about Israel’s nuclear capability to The Sunday Times, then to the Daily Mirror. Vanunu was subsequently kidnapped by Mossad and smuggled to Israel, convicted of treason and imprisoned for eighteen years.[61]

    After he died on a “yacht accident” his daughter has always said was likely a hit.

    It’s crazy people don’t talk about Israel’s connection to Epstein and the child rape ring…

    Like, why do people think so many governments will support Israel no matter what? They’ve got blackmail on most governments, and the way to fix that is flushing anyone who shows that level of pro-israel bias. We have to get rid of anyone they have dirt with, and replace them with a fresh face who won’t rape kids and/or support genocides.



  • The biggest problem with the Doctrow shit where you “coin a term” is it inevitably leads to confusion when it becomes widespread.

    OP doesn’t understand any of this, they just heard “enahitification” and that people up ote it. So when they get confused, they call it that and share it for the likes.

    New people see the misuse, and have no idea what the word is even supposed to mean.

    What OP is complaining about doesn’t make sense and is nonreproducible, but their brain jumps to “enshitification” first because brains are lazy




  • I mean, the way we got rid of our military reactor “waste” for decades was selling it to the French, who refined it for their reactors…

    Real waste that’s an issue is radioactively contaminated steal and the like, we can’t use any of that juice, but we can keep refining fuel forever if we wanted to.

    It’s just a big heavy object, and we need big heavy payloads and an excuse to launch them. So let’s take all that real waste and launch it at the sun for the fuck of it.


  • The space race at large was all a cover for weapons development…

    It was two super powers on either side of the globe competing to show they could hit the other in the dick from that far away.

    Absolutely no one in either government who controlled funding ever gave a fuck about the science for science sake, or even PR.

    Shooting nuclear waste into the sun is a much saner reason that comes with all the bonuses. But obviously it’s for an ideal society after we solve wealth inequality so we can pay for it and actually use the developments for science and not killing each other.


  • That would take more effort and energy than just dealing with it on earth by many orders of magnitude. It’s even harder to launch into the sun than it is to launch it outside the solar system (which is also infeasible of course)

    Yep, it would be a wealth sink that drastically advances science and pays off later.

    Just like going to the moon was an excuse to develop ICBM technology, that also paid off with a shit ton of unexpected scientific advancement.
