#Putin seeking to #manipulate #US leadership & break out of isolation, #Zelensky told Sky News
His remarks come after several #deadlines set by #Trump passed without new US #sanctions.
Putin definitely wants to trick the US. He’s doing everything he can to avoid sanctions, to prevent the US & Trump from putting sanctions on him.
“If you keep postponing applying sanctions any further, then the Russians will be better prepared.”

“Our timetable will achieve the stature of a natural phenomenon,” his father said. “A planet’s life is a vast, tightly interwoven fabric. Vegetation and animal changes will be determined at first by the raw physical forces we manipulate. As they establish themselves, though, our changes will become controlling influences in their own right—and we will have to deal with them, too.

The #NSA, is well-known for our #transparency and #accountability. So it should come as no surprise that we completely deny any allegations that we are using our vast resources and technological expertise to create a massive database of every electronic #communication in the world, known as the "Thought Net" to build an AI to track and monitor your thoughts. Because why would we ever want to do something like that?
Sure, we may have a history of secret #surveillance and a reputation for being one of the most #technologically advanced agencies in the world, but that doesn't mean we would ever use those #capabilities for anything #nefarious. It's not like we have any interest in controlling the global economy, influencing #political elections, or starting wars. That would be ridiculous.
Of course, it's easy for us to sit here and say that this conspiracy theory is completely #unfounded and without any basis in fact. But don't just take our word for it. After all, we would never lie to you. That would go against everything we stand for as an agency.
In conclusion, the idea that the NSA is using the #ThoughtNet to #control and #manipulate the thoughts and actions of people is just silly. We're a #government agency, not a group of #EvilMasterminds. So please, feel free to continue to believe in this wild #ConspiracyTheory if it makes you feel better. It's not like we can stop you anyway.

CW: USPol - Trump, tariffs
As a consequence of these various #personality, #temperament, and #intellectual #deficits, Trump is, for a world leader, amazingly easy to #manipulate.
If you #butter him up, and suggest doing something will make him look good - well, there's a good chance he'll listen intently. He likes to listen to people telling him he's wonderful, and giving him easy ways to appear more wonderful. Much better than listening to people asking him to choose between tough or ugly choices on complicated subjects.
He's also got that tendency where he believes whatever the last person he spoke to told him. This is why people - remember those oligarchs who were literally in front-row seats at his inauguration? - want to be close to him, figuratively and literally. If you keep his #ear, you can keep him behind your needs, your ideas, your wants.
So, given all this, why the hell did he declare #economic #war on #Canada (and Mexico, and China, but I'm #Canadian) when it was:
(a) obviously a bad idea for the US and the world #economy; there will be pain, and it will hurt him - price of eggs and all that
(b) not something that was going to personally #profit him in any big way
(c) not in the interests of his #billionaire oligarchs
(d) not a primary plank in his campaign - at least not in this scorched-earth approach he's takenWhy?

CW: Debt and Inflation in society devalues us and our future...
I always appreciate your word / worldly opinion @freemo so was wondering what you think about the statement?
I personally feel it quite heavily as a burden on me/us and a deliberate "mission impossible" for society to live up to it.
It seems more than just finding a way to #exchange or #share value and what actually became / was a way to actually #depreciate money and numbers from a distance while people still hold what they things is the same amount, so as #negative #maths of sorts by diluting the whole supply by giving our more debt, and deliberately pressuring the lower brackets of people with the threat of leaving them behind from that #devaluation (and other #price hikes / real estate etc) through money that buys less (including #value as a person and a skill) using the #destructive power by #bank and #government controllers to #manipulate / steer people too...
Do have anything I might have missed about that, as it seems quite a #manmade / #arbitrarily brutal and #destructive #equation for people to try live up to that or live in it, and more just a #cruel pressure / #manipulation set by others to impose their will and increase #pressure continually keeping them down in in #measurable / #proportional #inequality...

I think #X's policy on the word "#cisgender" is a new level of escalation. It's dangerous.
It feeds directly into the #conspiracy theory of trans activists being a dangerous mob coming to get you. This is not true. Transphobes WANT you to feel afraid. Don't let them #manipulate into hate.
The trans activists are right. Trans people deserve equality and recognition of their gender identity. And #CisIsNotASlur.

“Trump’s claim to have won the election in 2020 was more than a lie: it was a cynical bet that he could #manipulate & #intimidate his compatriots,” & if he wins it will have worked.
"Having won back power because of his election-denial in 2020, he would surely be affirmed in his gut feeling that only losers allow themselves to be bound by the norms, customs & self-sacrifice that make a nation”.

Where is the converse #AI, the AI that detects when other systems are using things like #memeWarfare, #subliminalAdvertising, #psychicDriving, #music, #neuralLinguisticProgramming or #complexityTheatre to #bamboozle, #manipulate and/or #exploit the viewer - and can warn them about it.It will probably go haywire while the #television is on - #communityTelevision less-so of course. It would go wild on #Facebook and #Twitter too.

Okay, so in case people have not noticed, anti-science #activism is rearing its ugly head in the US.
The current #conspiratorial & political #myth-making class (GOP, rightwing ideologues, grifting influencers, etc...) has identified #science as an obstacle to its ambitions for dominance.
The main reason is that science plays an important social role in society, it disrupts the convenient stories we tell ourselves, and the narratives of the powerful who seek to #manipulate with fiction.

All great points. #RichardStallman talked about the dangerous trend towards #plutocracy recently on an interview he gave on #RT.The part about the #swingVoter is true. The #powerElite have refined tactics to understanding the swing voter so they can #manipulate them.

@educoder @zeh You should read articles like these, before leading people into bad situations that is hard to recover from.
Once you have been using #cloudflare or #cloudfront you rep have suffered a lot and it is most likely nobody ever will trust you again.
The fact is, both of cloud(flare|front) are decrypting the connection for tapping the data, and they do sell the data to chose who wants to #brainwash and #manipulate you. Is this what you like to offer your fellow citizens on the small and narrowed internet controlled by a few #BigTech firms, or would you stay clear of the #cagemafia and help rebuilding the World Wide Web ( #www ), where #freedom and #democracy leaves in a healthy environment with free speech and knowledge sharing?

@randahl
Agree about #algorithm #bias from #TickTok and a #quote or two here...===============
IS IT ALL THE SAME?
===============🔴 If #TickTok vs. #Facebook #Meta, #Twitter #X, #Instagram, #Bluesky #YouTube #Google are all the same types of #bias then it seems like a lot of #hypocrisy / #hypocrisies happening.
⬇️ Sounds like these similar types of phrases below ...
(please correct / add ➕ your version )
🔴 " It's not #terrorism when we do it "🔴 " If other countries do the same we do, it's called terrorism
- we are Freedom fighters so it's different..."🔴 Other "#Freedom fighters" are terrorists. Only space for our version of Freedom / #Capitalism / #Capitalist Monopoly only.
🔴 " Only we get to do the #fuckery and #enshitification because that's also a #monopoly we want to control! "
I might be confusing a #Government with #Company here in this post - but also that seems like a 'company' of sorts with it's own similar #algo pattern (as #army company or #financial company helping provide it with #tax) - so it's hard to separate these kinds of competitive and territorial entities, one setup within the other.
#Government #Governments
#Company #Companies
#Taxes ➡️ #War or other 'smaller' #Oppression / #Depression⬇️ and good points by others below...
💬 " The tiktok ban boils down to "it's only okay to use these #shady practices to try and control the #population if WE do it". "
