  1. @rebeccawatson There actually *are* ways of performing age verification in a privacy-preserving way, thanks to zero-knowledge proof cryptography:

    github.com/zkpassport

    StRanGeLY tHoUgH, governments don't seem interested in merely knowing that a user truly is >=$some_age, and not knowing anything else about them. They really, *really* wanna know who the perverts^W adults are.

  2. @rebeccawatson OMG, you just reminded me for the first time in at least 15 years of Spiritual Machines by #OurLadyPeace from 2000, which was inspired by the #RayKurtzweil book and even featured small clips of him reading excerpts.

    People do tend to slow down when they can not see the hood of their car.

    I'm one of those who believes the Election was stolen, but NOT via "hacking". "Spoonamore" has nothing.

    No "Recount" would work. They were too clever for that.

    This Election was stolen via #VoterSupression & #UncountedBallots. #Investigate2024

  5. This Rebecca Watson video regarding trump/Juvenile Delinquent migrant information is worth checking out.

    She plays a clip from the 8/27/2024 Ohio City Commission where Drake Berentz, a neo-nazi (who goes by a racist pseudonym) first raises the conspiracy that Haitian people are eating pets. This is about a week before EriKa Lee first posted this on FB on 9/5/2024.

    So trump/JD are repeating a conspiracy theory from a neo-nazi.

    #Autistic people suffer from "sensory overload" (thus the iconic "hands over ears" and dislike of being hugged/touched) and gravitate to "calming" activities like board games & social media.

    I've often described it as trying to run a straight line after spinning around in circles. #Disoriented

  12. Ah, yes, the modern genre of "Youtubers & comedians doing the job the #press should be doing"...

    We shouldn't need a law forbidding news outlets to reproduce press releases without fact checking or comment but since we obviously do, there should be one.

  14. Wow, just wow. Shen Yun is run by the Falun Gong cult and tax-free "religion" in the US which is connected to money laundering Epoch Times which is the #2 funder of Trump, leader of that other well known cult MAGA...

    Why am I not surprised?

    I bet Trump is secretly jealous that MAGA is not a religion itself but at least he has managed to tap into the huge tax free slush fund of other people's religions.

    An assault against science and #knowledge is happening now on behalf of powerful #InterestGroups in the #US, and it's made worse because of the #power and influence that nation still has.
