  3. In Jan 2025, as the LA #wildfires raged, people placed bets on #Polymarket, one of the leading #PredictionMarkets. They waged money on how many acres the fires would consume, which locations the flames would reach & when they would be contained.

    It was “pretty dystopian,” said Trudeau, a California-based climate scientist, who works at the non-profit Climate Central. “It’s not just easy to start a fire—now there’s potentially a financial incentive.”

  5. #Ghouls

    People are making #wildfire bets on #PredictionMarkets. Experts say it could lead to disaster.

    When the Eaton fire swept through the LA neighborhood of Altadena last year, it claimed 19 lives & incinerated thousands of buildings—one of which was the home of Kaitlyn Trudeau’s grandfather. His house burned to the ground; he lost everything. But while he grappled with #trauma, others saw dollar signs in the #disaster.

  7. #MarkCarney is attempting to force #Canadians into a “let the motherfucker burn” moment in regards to #climatechange and our country’s response.

    Turncoat #Liberals and their supporting #Corporations are tripling down on #climatedestruction with new #pipelines, #aidatacenters, and #LNG, despite the majority of Canadians opposing abandoning our climate goals.

    After all our work fighting Climate Change, Corporate propaganda now tells us “It’s inevitable, get used to it”.

    What’s made clear is that the #economy means more to corporate owned politicians than our communities or our votes.

    Ultimately, #Corporatism will rule over the people’s interest, no matter how much our communities will pay.

    These #neocon #CarneyLiberals gave strategic voters in #cdnpoli exactly what we voted against, a conservative agenda.

    This is political fraud, yet few seem to notice due to Carney’s #ShockDoctrine threat of a racist, fascist old fart who will be dead in a year or two.

    Carney’s #Liberals are #traitors to our country and this #earth, every single one of them. Vote them all out.

  18. #Google has come under intense criticism after signing a $45M contract with the Israeli PM’s Office in June 2025 to run a digital #advertising campaign on #YouTube & #Display & #Video360, aimed at promoting official Israeli #propaganda during military operations in #Gaza.
    One of the key ads featured a video by the Israeli Ministry of MFA falsely claiming that there is food in Gaza, which garnered over 6M views through paid promotions #Genocide #Staevation #Profiteers #BDS

  21. @abcfeeds
    I wouldn’t mind the price increase if I was assured all of the ‘increase’ went to those doing it tough because of failed crops. But how many ‘middlemen’ profit from the producers’ distress?

  24. Not a #Switfie, but I do have some very disappointed kids who are. Sorry, I don't have 10 grand to spend on a concert, no matter how great it might be #TaylorSwift #Profiteers

  25. I do feel a certain amount of schadenfreude to think this many ticket holders may be left holding the bag for tickets they couldn't sell, but mostly it fills me with rage that that many fans were denied the opportunity to experience what could be the show of a lifetime.
