https://thewalrus.ca/how-albertas-separatist-movement-could-shake-north-america
This article traces the separatist movement back to 1980 and the response to the National Energy Program.
I'm not an expert on the history of Canada, still less that of Alberta, so I have no grounds for for contesting the article's claim about the beginnings of calls for separation.
I wonder, though, if the groundwork for the rise of separatism was laid by Alberta's distinctive political history from 1935 onwards. That year saw the election of a Social Credit government in the province; the right populist party would dominate the political landscape there for another 35 years.
The heritage of the Social Credit movement in Alberta, with its roots in evangelicalism and populist resentment of banks and distant metropolitan elites, might explain some (not all) of the current separatist movement's sympathies with Trumpish Americanism.
Understanding the rise of the Social Credit movement in Alberta matters not only for the history of Canada and of the Grest Depression in general, but also for our understanding of right wing populist movements.
In another part of the article...

Спустя несколько часов после того, как администрация #Trump ввела ограничения против #Anthropic, их главный конкурент — #OpenAI — объявил о масштабном соглашении с #Pentagon.
Глава компании #SamAltman сообщил, что модели #AI будут интегрированы в информационные военные системы #USA, но при соблюдении жёстких «красных линий».
Ирония ситуации в том, что эти ограничения почти совпадают с теми, из-за которых под давление попала #Anthropic: запрет на массовую слежку за американцами, запрет на управление полностью автономным оружием и отказ от систем наподобие китайского #SocialCredit.
Разница — в архитектуре. #OpenAI предложила более гибкую модель использования технологий: системы будут работать через облачную инфраструктуру под контролем инженеров. Такой подход, по словам компании, физически исключает установку моделей на боевые #Drones или автономные роботизированные платформы.
Глава Пентагона #PeteHegseth уже приветствовал соглашение, назвав #OpenAI «надёжным партнёром». В то же время #Anthropic готовится оспаривать в суде статус угрозы для цепочек поставок и возможный запрет на участие в государственных контрактах США.
Сам #SamAltman публично призвал #Pentagon предложить аналогичные условия всем разработчикам #ArtificialIntelligence и снизить напряжение вокруг конфликта с #Anthropic. По его словам, для защиты демократии военным действительно нужны передовые технологии, но с чёткими ограничителями и механизмами безопасности.
Ситуация вызывает дополнительный интерес ещё и потому, что выбор #OpenAI может объясняться не только технологическими возможностями, но и большей гибкостью в вопросах регулирования #AI. В отличие от жёсткой позиции #Anthropic, компания Альтмана показала готовность к компромиссам, позволяющим #USGov формально соблюдать ограничения и одновременно сохранять доступ к передовым разработкам.
Немаловажную роль играет и фактор #SiliconValley. Ранее Альтман возглавлял #YCombinator, который традиционно связан с кругом предпринимателей, известным как #PayPalMafia.
Одной из ключевых фигур там остаётся #PeterThiel — сооснователь #PayPal и #Palantir, компании, которая уже давно считается одним из ключевых технологических подрядчиков американской разведки и оборонного сектора.

「 The only difference between your phone and China's social credit system is that China tells you what they're doing. We pretend our algorithmic reputation scores are just “user experience features.” At least Beijing admits they're gamifying human behavior 」

"My #socialcredit system is better than yours" 🤦
The fact of the matter is that the application of algorithms in manners that directly affect individuals used to be an isolated, sandboxed (and typically regulated) practice (like credit scores in banking, actuarial tables in insurance etc).
But the carte-blanche granted to #adtech (and #bigtech more broadly) has opened Pandora's box of opaque, unregulated, abusive monitoring and influencing of user behaviors.

Congratulations! 🎉 You've just realized your phone is a tattletale that snitches on your every move for digital brownie points. 📱💩 Don't worry, though. We just wrap it up in a pretty lie, slap a fancy term on it, and call it "social credit" — because "creepy digital stalking" didn't quite pass the marketing test. 🙄

Republicans, beside the liberty caucus, have a poor liberty score and want the big daddy government to tread on us.
We need more Ron Paul, Rand Paul, Thomas Massie & Justin Amash in the government to defend our individual rights, first amendment, second amendment, private property, free trade, and protect us for mass surveillance & from involvement in foreign agenda wars.

The "maladjustment" by William Waite
https://substack.com/home/post/p-162912919
Quote:
'There is an alternative. Where there is a shortfall of consumer purchasing power it could be made up with steady and measured credit injections directly to the public. This would render the old system obselete. No longer would new investment be required solely to distribute money for consumption. There would also be a reduction in the need for consumer and government debt. The monopoly of credit would be broken, its power distributed and decentralised.
Easy fix. That doesn’t mean we’re going to even talk about it. The monopoly of credit is nothing if not tenacious and people remain mostly blind to the irrationalities of debt-economics and full employment. Politics is reluctant to lead where the public is unprepared to follow.'

@LALegault @david_crispin amazing Jenni Byrne connects with Poilievre's conservatives that has, at its roots, the uncle of #bountifulbc ' s winston blackmore who's cult still adheres to the doctrine of "bleeding the beast" .
Yes, john horne blackmore and his #socialcredit movement set up to "bleed the beasts" … the great unwashed masses. its now known as "Axe the Tax" .
get the word out

So, who's excited for the coming #SocialCreditSystem ? You think the #AI everyone is complaining about is the end of it? The #SocialCredit only works if there's an AI combined with #CCTV #surveillance .
What are _you_ going to do about it today?

Once in Canada, in the 1970s, we lived through a federal Conservative government that relied on the Social Credit as kingmakers in Joe Clark's minority government. If you're too young to remember the Social Credit party, replace "Social" with "bat shit crazy" and replace "Credit" with "vocal anti-Semitic Catholic extremists". That will give you an idea. BTW, Musk's grandfather ran for many years as a Social Credit candidate during the height of their anti-Semitic era. Go figure.

"The issue which has swept down the centuries and which will have to be fought sooner or later is the people versus the banks."
― Lord Acton
Good to know which side the Republicans are on.😏

It starts here for places not under authoritarian rule. Once everyone is accustomed to it, the next phase is to introduce the #SocialCreditSystem.
Remember how public #CCTV started? Only politicians were in favour of it at first. Years later, no one cared anymore.
Same strategy.
They are already expecting people will complain about this. But it is here to stay. And people will once again eventually just accept it and ignore it.
Then boom: #SocialCredit is here.

Während wir in Europa gegen die #Chatkonrolle und #Vorratsdatenspeicherung demonstrieren, herrscht in #China 1984 und es sind die gleichen Argumente FÜR #Überwachung zu hören, wie bei uns.
Sehr gute, beklemmende und persönliche Doku zum #Überwachungsstaat China und dem #SocialCreditSystem.

About #socialcredit,
#smartcity instead of #democraty, #digitalcentralbank #money as a smart #rationing card, #socialengineering, #paternalism, #social mega machine, and #socialbonds instead of #behaviouralmanipulation from above (article pointed by a coworker)
"Currently, many regions and municipalities in #Europe are testing social credit systems. [...] Rome, Vienna, Bologna and Bavaria." [...] when people are coerced into funding #government subsidies for the #automobile industry or (conventional) #agriculture, but at the same time can get social credit bonuses from the government if they give up cars or car travel and buy organic food."
"There is an alternative. But it is unattractive to technocratic rulers. It consists of strengthening social ties, even at the expense of the free but anonymous market. One could think of associations, trade unions, works councils, cooperatives, social organisations, which are not only allowed but also have important tasks, from representing the interests of workers to providing housing, social security and health care. But promoting and empowering such #socialbonds runs diametrically counter to the interest of technocratic rulers, who do not like opposition and discussion about their chosen goals."

"Delta Airlines has put 1,600+ people on its "no-fly" list for "disruptive behavior" related to #COVID19, urges other airlines to share lists."
Isn't it kind of list created to prevent air hijacking?🍭

What really worries us is many #Australians still think #Fakebook is good for them. Since Feb this year it can literally bribe our #establishmentMedia.
