  • Coincidentally I’ve noticed a shift in the bots and propaganda on Reddit lately (no account, whatever appears on the redlib front page), attempting to downplay and normalise the abject corruption and criminality with hot takes like “it’s nowhere near as bad as the media makes it seem for the average American”. Like yeah… 1930’s Europe was decent for 95% of Europeans… Right up until it wasn’t, after fascism was normalised and caused the deaths of 100 million people.









  • Surveillance capitalism just wants to completely destroy all anonymity for data harvesting, propaganda, and control purposes.

    Considering Epstein didn’t kill himself, and literally none of his hundreds/thousands of oligarch-customers have faced any consequences, this pedelephant in the room could very well be what chat control, photo scanning, etc is actually all about.

    Parent takes photo of their baby/child in the rudey nudey > custom pedo-developed algorithm flags it as potential child porn > sends image/vid to gov server for “verification” > data gets “hacked” by pedos.

    Same system could easily be adapted to stealing everyones private sex pics/vids, as the entire idea is that it’s performed by closed source applications in the background, without the user ever being aware.

    And with the way CSAM works, governments could easily insert hashes of ANY files — say a whistleblower steals the un-redacted Epstein files — so OS’s/services would identify everyone who had downloaded that file(s), sending the alarm straight to the secret police’s surveillance system; maybe they could be silenced before they’ve had a chance to tell anyone.



  • It’s insane, but it should be expected. Fascists have been using social media, traditional media, and surveillance capitalism — big data and analytics — to wage psychological warfare for decades. Most of the major players are American corporations, and all of the world’s elite/oligarchs are all invested in them; they’re all just as anti-democratic, pro-authoritarianism, mentally ill, criminally corrupt, and depraved as each other.

    This is the expected result when fascist state media like News Corp are allowed to exist; spewing disinformation 24/7. When a class of ultra-wealthy are allowed to exist, and the multi-tiered “democratic” and “justice” systems they create. When criminals are allowed to operate behind the liability shield of an LLC.
