Did you know that Ayatollah Ali Khamenei’s funeral has been a clear world record in number of humans attending?

At least 15 million, officials say 30 million, plus 10 million in Iraq.

The regime isn’t collapsing. Tens of millions of people are marching with flags that have ”REVENGE” written on them.

By the way most of the #SpaceX ”market cap” valuation is fake.

Most of those #shares will never become available, and an even smaller amount is available for the initial offering.

The market did not just buy SpaceX shares for 2.1$T

But what actually happened is a lot capital got created, via the #leverage #loans that were taken out to buy the 1/20th which became available.

This is ”growth” based on imagination. But the numbers for #interest already got punched in as future income for banks!

The western nations have always accepted Russian occupation and imperialism.

After WW2, the West signed off entire eastern Europe to remain under Soviet occupation. This meant violent subjugation of any dissidence, and often genocides.

Today is no different. USA, it’s leading oligarchs, and Europe’s right wing would glady turn Ukraine over to Russia’s whims, and this time they’d make business with it to boot.

Makes me absolutely sick.

Internal combustion vehicles are dead and #Solar/#Wind will beat fossil & nuclear.

#Sodiumion #batteries from #CATL start mass production in December.

Less than half the price than Lithium-ion. No fire risk. Up to 5x the charge cycles. Cold weather performance 90% at -40C. Energy density higher than LFP.

Grid energy storage will now win economically, and old batteries from #EVs driven half a million kms would make to sense to recycle into a new car.

The far right would like to convince you that this is dangerous radical left-wing extremism.

BREAKING: Israel asking from USA green light to strike Iran’s energy sector.

War crimes piled on warcrimes incoming tonight I think.

If you didn’t know, Israel struck civilian targets in a South Beirut area that Iran had specified as it’s red line. Israel hit the area anyway, for which Iran retaliated with ballistic missiles as it had promised, and the bloodlust is now boiling.

But you will only the victim rhetoric I think.

Benjamin Netanyahu is saying (in Hebrew):

”Israel has become a global military superpower”
”Who else possesses our might, our strength?”
”Turn a blind eye to all media reports”

Netanyahu has two very different voices:
In English he sounds like a victim.
In Hebrew he sounds like Hitler.

The most important thing you need to know why #fascism is different, is that it doesn’t offer politics, not even really ideology that much.

Fascism offers a package of belonging, purpose & a path to the top of society for a large amount of people who wouldn’t have a chance at that otherwise.

Of course they’ll be betrayed once fascists have absolute power, but it doesn’t matter to the people who are pulled into it right now.

What if I told you that all those #datacenters being built aren’t going to run #AI for profitable capitalist purposes?

They make no sense unless government was going to pay for it. A goverment running a total surveillance society, continuously at war with the rest of the world and it’s own people.

ONLY if they are planning for a world where consumerist capitalist economies don’t matter anymore.. All this, loss of US, Israel reputations, and the wars make sense.. 🥶😰

I’m not sure if it’s scientifically accurate to say queerness correlates with intelligence, but it is without a doubt that anti-queerness correlates with anti-intelligence.

@dansup FYI experiencing quite long lags in #federation from Loops.video. Much longer than usual (still waiting).

Oddly enough, directly linking to a loops post brings a post up from the pov of my mastodon instance.

It might be a compatibility issue with mastodon.green, or something is not being flushed properly? 🤔

@JohanEmpa Do you have any insights what could be causing this?

Excellent article from Saudi-Arabia, asking the question whether the USA entered the war because they trusted silly little text extrusion machines over human expertise?

#Palantir's "Ender's Foundry" used to develop #simulations for #war outcomes was developed only SIXTY F****NG DAYS before planning commenced!!

So, basically an off-the-shelf #chatbot, with sycophancy still full on, gave these clowns the confidence to go into a full-scale disaster in #iran 🤦♂️

@grant_h @Andii @oscarjiminy What this is essentially saying, is that failures to conform to a core defining principle of conservatism (in-group must be preferred), was ”developmental failure”.

It tells more about the unmatched levels oppression practiced by western socities at large, than it does about neurodivergent people.

We judge people who fail to be good imperialists as defective.

I really recommend following the US/Israel war on Iran from some source that gets the Israeli comments translated from Hebrew, not from English.

You will notice how casually: ”We will kill everyone” keeps being dropped from officials across the board.

Pichai wants you to think that it is impossible for you to find a webpage unless he gets to spy on you from asshole to appetite."

@aral @casey @joynewacc @aseelfromgz @rania40 @fabio Thank you.

If my credit card is getting blocked by automated systems for donating to valid and verified campaigns, wouldn’t this be a potential signal for foul play by anti-palestinian operators that have access to international payment systems?

If you hear of other such occasions, could you please update me about the situation. I’d like to hear how this will play out.

@aral Hey Aral.

I had my credit card blocked from donating to campaigns listed on gazaverified.org

Some people came out to point to me that many campaigns on the site appear AI generated.

Now. I of course don’t expect there to be NO scammers on the list. And I can imagine Israel would do it’s best to mark legit campaigns as scammers through banking systems.

But what do you have to say on this? You run the list, am I correct?

@DeliaChristina This goes along solidly with other observations about low-skill conservative men: They love AI, because they think it’s somehow unfair that people with talent have a say in how the world is run.
