  1. Shadow Ai became the norm,

    ‘Independent research through 2025 and 2026 found personal AI use is now widespread inside companies, mostly invisible to the people responsible for protecting data. Why it matters: when work runs on a personal account, the company’s data quietly falls under consumer terms instead of its business contract.’

    And since consumer terms have been undermined by the antitrust interests of corporations, their totalitarian world order does not serve the democratic rights of diverse interests. Rather it is at war with them! #EndOfEmpire #Ai linkedin.com/pulse/before-you-

    Wow, I’m jealous. This is solid writing.

    #Trump and Pete #Hegseth and Marco #Rubio and whomever else were lured into this war by Benjamin #Netanyahu, pushed into it by the billionaire donors of the #Israel lobby and, more than anything else, seduced into it by massive institutional incompetence and their thoroughly unfounded belief in their own awesomeness. As one Bluesky poster put it in early March, those guys believed they could wage and win a war easily just by being “based chads” (i.e., white dudes with retrograde attitudes about literally everything) who would avoid all the weak, woke, DEI-informed mistakes made in previous conflicts by such lily-livered libtards as, um, George W. Bush, Dick Cheney and Donald Rumsfeld.”

  3. When, exactly, did it become acceptable for people to roll straight out of bed and come to the hotel dining room for breakfast in their pyjamas? #slippingstandards #thinEndOfTheWedge #EndOfEmpire #bahHumbug

  4. @DebErupts

    Newsome is unsavoury, but he sure knows how to get under Trump's skin.

  5. The US came into existence after a revolt against British rule and the implementation of rules based upon decisions made in another land, which were not evenly applied and definitely not to the benefit of all. The US has now replaced the British Empire as a major power and abuses power in exactly the same way. We only have to look at the history books to see what happens next.

  6. There's this scene that lives rent-free in my head, with a character in the show The Diplomat saying "i still believe in international rules-based order". It's killing me lol. And it shows exactly the point of their jobs: cover-ups. Politely excusing horrible war crimes.

    This is not just Trump. It's a long history of the US and other countries doing what they want, because who is going to stop them?

    Just like West Wing, The Diplomat is a fantasy for liberals, and even then they can't make themselves look good.

    Dozens of assassinations, kidnappings, regime changes, support for violent extreme-right groups... par for the course for the US. This won't stop until the US collapses.

  7. Western media portray the 160th SOAR as an elite helicopter force for covert missions. But in 2005 an officer in the regiment blogged about joint operations with the Wolf Brigade as they swept Baghdad detaining civilians. On November 10, 2005, he described a “battalion-sized joint operation” in southern Baghdad and boasted, “As we passed vehicle after vehicle full of blindfolded detainees, my face stretched into a long wolfish smile.”

  8. Waiting in the wings...

    Conquest (in progress), along with War, Death, and Famine, just waiting for the word.

    Yes, the deity is The King in Yellow; you know it makes sense.

  9. @Corb_The_Lesser @petergleick Once Trump has completed Putin’s plan; to turn the U.S. and U.K. into irreversible shit holes for lazy white stupid and extremely violent gammons, MAGA and Reform; MEGA, will be the first to burn their hats, just to stay warm or piss in I guess. Who will take responsibility for the cost of their corruption, and who will pay for it? To be sure not the Nations the U.S. and U.K. has turned into authoritarian shit holes! #PayBack #TheDogsOfWar #UltraRichHell #EndFascistTech #GenocideHydra #EndOfEmpire #BiosphereCollapse

  10. @noelreports Clearly not an idiot by psychological definition, as the orange Mussolini is capable of ‘doublespeak’. Even his base knows he works with Putin’s oligarchs amongst others, so likely not an imbecile either. Remember the golden calf, now Gaza for the golden ConGrift! Moron, he most definitely is, as the next uprising will most likely bring about his end. MAGA will face bloody action by the people unless it is broken and the Republicans are made to apologise in humiliating fashion for ripping up the constitution. Hungry, poor with no dope, the anti-woke will soon become a force to drive a purge but hey have no courage. Democrats have the spine to rally a counter revolution and will be pushed to do so or suffer defeat too. Europe is in peril. Thanks Don the ConGrift. The revolutionary pitch, I’m guessing will be death to the oligarchs first! #TheRepublics #FascistStatesFall #EndOfEmpire #TheConstitutionalParty ? #EqualRightsFirst #BirthOfTheFederation

  11. That just makes it old hat @Old_IT_geek
    "Commonwealth of the South" is vague enough to include anything south of the North Pole. Taking the US out of the picture opens up all sorts of opportunities.

    My cunning plan for world domination is taking form <evil laugh>.

  12. In the absence of the US, what should Australia do? @electric_gumball

    The US is in its last days. What comes next? Will the individual states form small confederations? Will some become part of Canada?

  13. The US is in its last days. The decline of an empire is often marked by lunatic leaders.

  15. A tricky political question. After certain ritual performed by Kremlin last year, according to russian law, cities of #Kherson and #Zaporizhzhia became a part of russian empire. And this part is occupied by Ukraine. I think there is no way for russian horde in any future to take control over this cities. Same time russian Constitution requires from Kremlin to keep territorial integrity of empire, so there could be 2 main options - edit Constitution and "give away" part of russia to Ukraine or never sign a peace treaty.

    Second option means that russia will slowly decay under sanctions until the #EndOfEmpire. Decolonization in exchange for Bush legs ( en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bush_leg ), part II.

    First option is more interesting. By default russians are terrified by the idea that they could loose their oil-rich colonies, if being asked why they invaded Ukraine any russian (including "good" one) will say that West want to take control over colonial oilfields ( to destroy spiritual mother russia in Dostoevsky language) and Kremlin acts to prevent it. And changing Constitution in a way which allows imperial territories to go away will be a green light for russian resource colonies, such as #Tatarstan (which is a major supplier of "russian" oil) or #Dagestan, to secede. The next day after such change, #Girkin will capture Kremlin and hang Putin on the wall

    So the question is, is there any way around this deadlock for russians to preserve their empire?

  16. Five regions want to break away from #russia, referendum shows

    "According to the #survey, 72.1 percent of respondees in the #Königsberg (#Kaliningrad) oblast want to break away from the russian empire. In #Ingria, 66.2 percent of respondees wanted their oblast to gain independence. In #Ural, the percentage amounted to 68.2 percent, in #Syberia to 63.9 percent, and in the #Kuban oblast to 55.7 percent."

  17. As for #BanTerrorussiaFromOlympics

    The significant number of russian empire athletes in fact represents enslaved nations, like #Dagestan or #Buryatia . I think they should be allowed to perform under their national flags. It will be a strong message to address #russianColonialism

  18. @djl

    #given the strength of national identity in a country still chained to the #union, it is unsurprising the part of independence dominates.... it is a bit weird that 70 years after #endOfEmpire #Scotland is still run from #Westminster. Why?

    but #labour will come second in #scotland, and will win the #nextGE

    and the #uk will be #betterWithLabour (but I still think #scotland needs to get the bottle to #leaveTheUnion)

  19. BEWARE: As the end of Empire gets closer, the self-proclaimed upstanding moral people of Rome are warning debauched and virtueless party goers to LOOK for rose petals in your orgy of candy to avoid being smothered by the murderous seductions of Emperor Heliogabalus
