  1. CW: ai politics

    "Therefore, some liberal democracies may be reluctant to prioritize AI safety, fearing that precautionary policies would leave them even further behind the U.S. and China." (from chaos.social/@lawfare@mastodon)

  2. @winnipegfreepress #trump says he heard 4 or 5 shots - but the account of what happened was that the suspect camped "for nearly 12 hours with food and a rifle but fled without firing shots". So if no one fired their weapon what are these phantom "shots" #Donald is talking about? #republicanspin #falsenarrative #embellishment #herotozero #uspoli #Election2024USA

  4. “The lack of decency & respect for human life is astonishing: Almost instantly after the #Hamas attack, a legion of people emerged who downplayed the slaughter, or denied actual atrocities had even happened, as if Hamas had just carried out a traditional military operation against soldiers. #Oct7 deniers, like Holocaust deniers, exist in an especially dark place.

  5. “Some of this is happening out in the open, some behind the masks of #humanitarianism & #justice, & some in code, most famously ‘from the river to the sea,’ a chilling phrase that implicitly endorses the killing or deportation of the 9M #Israelis. It seems odd that one has to say: Killing #civilians, old people, even babies, is always wrong. But today say it one must.”

  6. The Royal Society is under pressure from more than 1,200 leading academics to issue a clear condemnation of the fossil fuel industry.

    Fossil fuel companies are “committing an unprecedented act of violence against humanity...Fossil fuel producers and financiers have humanity by the throat. For decades, the fossil fuel industry has invested heavily in pseudoscience and public relations, with a false narrative to minimise their responsibility for climate change and undermine ambitious climate policies." UN secretary general, António Guterres.

  7. Idolatry is committed, not merely by setting up false gods, but also by setting up false devils; by making men afraid of war or alcohol, or economic law, when they should be afraid of spiritual corruption and cowardice.
