Imagine feeling like your country's newsmedia could at any time turn its back and begin this level of hate campaign against you, to the point that they harass you and everyone you love to the literal ends of the earth, mining you for content until your death and even after. How would you live life?

when the CIA attempted to recruit me, they said I could suck any cock on earth. Any I desire. I turned down their offer because i am not Gay

OK, since this thread has blown up a bit, I think it's worth clarifying in a new thread to what extent the 'GenAI is asbestos for the mind' analogy might hold up, and where it breaks down (as even useful analogies always do): 1/n

Top ten most foreboding sentence I've ever read.

I think it is evidence of how so much we have been made to think that gaining an audience is the goal of life in this attention-seeking economy that saying "a rapist shouldn't seek a public persona that is available for consumption" is taken as equivalent to saying they "can never rejoin society."

This is a great example of one of the ways AI is actually going to endanger / kill huge numbers of people. Shitty chatbots cause their special sort of brain rot to the people who package intelligence for our shot-callers. They take the bad ideas from there. www.cnn.com/2026/09/18/p...

i know this TIME cover might seem bleak but in my experience this means that AI won’t be allowed in the bathroom within 5-10 years

Had a similar experience recently - two students absolutely ripping one of their peers to shreds (in absentia) because 'if you're too stupid to read the article yourself, you're too stupid to see if AI has made a decent summary, GREG'. All names have been changed for privacy purposes.

so my village has been having a lot of issues. rather than deal with any of them, i grabbed a goat and had all the villagers pile their blame and hate onto the goat. while we were getting ready to drive it into the woods (and absolve ourselves) the goat BIT ME????? RUDE?!?

This is the goal of bathroom bills: to drive trans people from public life so we can be exploited and exterminated in the shadows Moreover, ICE must be destroyed

This is... to me... a denial that trans people exist. The reference to genetic anomalies is common anti-trans language referring to intersex people.

I don’t love seeing my timeline fill up with cis liberals reposting each other about how unserious trans people are for caring about our rights in ways other than election results. We are being attacked in daily life, not just politics. Publicly abandoning us is harmful even if it’s just for show.

"They're not misunderstanding the film; they're co-opting a message"

I think we're at the point where we can incredibly comfortably say that your attitude towards Reform, Restore, MAGA, the AfD etc is how you'd have responded to fascism in the 1930s

im really and truly not the kind of person to shame people for the media they consume but if you watch the new harry potter you can get fucked

As a new Harry Potter trailer makes the rounds, it bears repeating that there’s no way to watch this show without supporting J.K. Rowling’s bigotry and the structural violence she’s inflicting on the trans community.

Some of the most well-known NoBlogs sites belong to researchers who solely report on far-right hate and radicalization, never doing anything aside from showing you what exists. Using speech to to shine a light and hold people accountable IS effective. Never let them try to convince you otherwise.

Academic freedom is when a foreign government dictates how and even whether a university investigates misconduct

New from me today - lobbyists employed by Israel have published voluminous material under the banner of a non-existent thinktank in an apparent attempt to game the information people get from AI chatbots www.theguardian.com/world/2026/a...

again: they mean it

nathan cofnas, the man who got jason arday killed, is an explicit white nationalist and race realist who has been cited endlessly in aporia, a propaganda network funded by the human diversity fund, rebranded from the pioneer fund started in the 1930s as an explicit nazi project

"Het gaat uiteindelijk om iets heel basaals: het recht om níét allemaal hetzelfde te hoeven zijn. Om briljant of middelmatig te zijn, gelijk te hebben of ons gruwelijk te vergissen. Om te falen zonder dat een hele groep met ons mee de beklaagdenbank in wordt gesleurd."

for the record this is the equivalent of a white supremacist saying that they respect foreign cultures as long as they stay out of the national ethnostate. it's the kind of fascism of a "brotherhood of nations" that balibar identifies in race nation class ambiguous identities

Plenty to reflect about re: the Arday affair, but I'm going to repeat this one thing. The playbook the right used here is effective even though it's not especially sophisticated, as it relies on the audience to do the dirty work. I've been calling it "Trojan horse propaganda", let's go with that. 1/

A boycott of the Harry Potter show really needs to be merciless. We can't hit JKR, HBO, or even the show itself so I'm sorry we have to make it politically and culturally toxic to be involved for the lower-level people

Again, the purpose of anti-trans bathroom laws are to remove trans people from public life. Trans men not being able to use either kind of bathroom is a feature, not a bug.

Definitely! I've learned from listening to @knowrogan.bsky.social that Rogan will just say stuff, especially if he thinks his guest would agree with it. To know what he believes, you have to look at the things he keeps coming back to, and universal healthcare is not one of those things.

if i ever write something that gets this kind of response from her you gotta put me down on the spot

The push for Harry Potter the TV show is going to be completely enormous—they're debuting it on fucking Christmas—and it is the responsibility of TV critics to contextualize this as rewarding the world's most transphobic billionaire (which is saying something) in everything we write about it.

Worth reiterating every time that this is not some cancel-culture purity test: JK Rowling has pledged more than a billion dollars of her Harry Potter money towards bankrolling anti-trans lawsuits. This finances that.

whether it ends up being any good or not, warner has staked far too much for this to be anything other than ubiquitous for the next few years. and really, the quality of the show is irrelevant to its primary mechanical function: giving its creator more leverage to wage a campaign of trans genocide

The excesses of the Woke 1 era mostly amount to cringe public statements, harmless vocabulary updates and loss of prestige for public figures. The backlash to Woke 1, on the other hand, is imprisoning dissidents, dismantling public education and eroding democracy. That's what needs reckoning

how the fuck are you supposed to live as a teenage trans girl? it baffles me and breaks my fucking heart what these random young women are subjected to. they didn't do anything.
