@loops Hi!

How’s the federation of Loops.video going?

When will I be able to follow and comment on Loops posts from the #fediverse?

@Infoseepage @HennaVirkkunen Why do you pursue this: ”There is no alternative” line of rhetoric?

You are driving a very authoritarian bargain. You are proposing something like fighting fascism with soviet communism.

All centrally driven systems become corrupt. Which is also true of contemporary USA, because it is de-facto centralised by everything serving the needs of the financial sector.

Chill out a little there. We can do better, no panic.

@Infoseepage @HennaVirkkunen I would make the case that comfort & profitability for citizens and private industry makes for a more robust future and guaranteed exit.

Knowing how US Tech operates, it won’t be a matter of time before they setup a chain of shell companies which shipp US tech in Euro containers, and then proceed buy off enough lobbyists to get all those EU funded deals, while scam artists get rich off taxpayer money.

Dear @HennaVirkkunen

IMO, it is #EU who should have #tariffs against the US in #cloud compute.

US investment banking secures investment in compute, which is backed by federal banking, which is backed by the largest #deficits in history, enabled by the #petrodollar, enabled by aggressive military operations for #oil

There’s no way a EU cloud service can compete in pricing against this.

We can’t have #digitalsovereignty when #eu is outpriced on every deal.

@Infoseepage @HennaVirkkunen There is no disconnect between these two perspectives.
The economic and policy realms are always connected.

Dutifully, when #Russia is in trouble, it’s propagadists go out threaten all-out nuclear war.

And again as usual, vatniks & other pro-Kremlin western Putinists give them the platform to do that.

Enter #TuckerCarlsson, a long-time pro-Russian ideologe; I would like to remind that ”liberal #Europe as a threat to civilisation” is not a new idea at all, but an old Russian idea.

What Russia used to call ”Gayrope” in 2016 is the #MAGA policy today. Coincidence? 🫣

This is what an unbreakable spirit sounds like!

Europe should threaten sanctions on Stephen Miller for threatening Greenland.

Authoritarians only listen to force. 🤔

@denisedwheeler.bsky.social I mirrored the video for the purpose of retaining evidence:

I suggest everyone do the same.

Stephen Miller on CNN, when asked the question about who is running Venezula:

”We live in the real world, which is governed by strength, might & power”

This is indeed full nazi. This is the essence of fascism being spoken out in full view on a ”centrist” media outlet.

The age of apologism is over for the far-right revolution, America. Please recognize what’s happening. It could be too late in as little as 3 months. 🙏

Fuck the right wing!

Every time they get elected, they rip down in 2 years what the rest built in 20.

You have to watch this. The proposed #EU #DigitalOmnibus #legislation CHANGES the definitions of concepts like ”Personal Data” and ”Scientific Research” to NOT WHAT THEY MEAN NOW!!

The exceptions we have for scientific peer-reviewed basic non-commercial research would be blanket-extended to all ”research” (=commercial #ai )

Suddenly your data is NOT personal data?!🤬

You might naturally account phrases like these as coming from Silicon Valley of the 21st century.

But when we follow these to the source, they are actually phrases of Italian Fascists coming from the 1920’s.

From a great 39th CCC talk by @Katika

Great talk on the painfully obvious intersections of #technology #ai and #fascism from the 39th Chaos Communication Congress by @Katika 👍🤩

As #Netflix prepares for a new season of #ThreeBodyProblem, time to dig up Damo’s old podcast about it.

I didn’t like Three Body Problem. For the same reason that Damien Walter didn’t. It is #authoritarian #propaganda.

In Cixin Liu’s world liberty is the problem and totalitarianism is the solution, and Dark Forest theory is the bait that makes it inevitable.

The intro that criticises Mao’s Cultural Revolution is also bait. Xi Jinping approves of it.

BREAKING NEWS!
US president Donald Trump successfully weakens NATO by blocking NATO from joining Ukraine.

Presiden Putin was reported delighted at the prospect of not having to face the Ukrainians again on his next special military operation!

#nafo #nato #breakingnews #ukraine #europe #putin #russia #trump

@jmaris Yeah going after people for nazi salutes is literally the axis freedom of speech revolves around.

It couldn’t be more clear than this.

#usnationalsecuritystrategy #russia #europe #nato #security

Absolute idiots, Witkoff & Kushner, thinking Russia is ”negociating” with them..

Russia doesn’t negociate, it entertains the possibility of negociations to find out where your weak spots are and it can push you further next time, and the next time, and the next…

Also, putting there a real-estate dealer who’s verifiably compromised by ownership ties of his private business to Russian oligarchy??

Who the fuck is running this?

I have a simple one question to Americans: WHAT THE FUCK?

Putin is not much worse to global security than Hitler, and you are brazenly on his right now?

I get it that you have bad drug problems, but Maduro isn’t the cause of them and even though he is corrupt this is sounding more and more like another Iraq?

Machine Learning is super cool, but why the fuck do you want to throw everything away and become more like China than China to beat China at something which doesn’t even work that well?

@NeonPurpleStar There’s plenty of vatniks here unfortunately. Lot less than elsewhere but i’ve had my account cloned by pro-russia trolls twice already. Probably by some Finnish altright fuckfaces operating from Chinese servers.

But i’ve left Twitter, and I’m not going back. Don’t miss it at all.
