#NationalParks Are #NativeLands

"All national parks exist on traditional #Indigenous lands, and in many cases, thousands of years’ worth of #NativeAmerican history has been documented at national park sites."

Public lands are #StolenLands! #LandBack! No cities for #TechBros!

"One proposed Freedom City site lies within the National #Conservation Area on the Utah–Colorado border, just west of Grand Junction, but local officials note that the area lacks adequate #water. Another target is the #Presidio, part of Golden Gate National Recreation Area, in the heart of San Francisco, a rare urban parkland that offers green space, a trail system, historic buildings and museums, and beach access. The proposal would take this public #GreenSpace and convert it into a commercial and #RealEstate #SacrificeZone, robbing the city’s residents of a priceless natural amenity.

"Then there’s Rocky Mountain Arsenal, which despite its name, is no longer a military site but a a #NationalWildlifeRefuge — one of the largest to showcase High Plains grassland ecosystems. Ten miles from downtown Denver, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service bills the area as 'a sanctuary away from the hustle and bustle of busy urban life where time moves at nature’s pace.' Other areas identified for potential conversion include public lands near Boise, Idaho and Bend, Oregon.

"These groups are calling for congressional legislation, because without it, the core principles of the concept would probably be illegal. Waiving the #NationalEnvironmentalPolicyAct, granting tax incentives, waiving #CivilRights regulations, and fast-tracking #NuclearPlants are on the menu, a tempting prize for the pro-development #corporatists. To address this problem, legislation has already been proposed by Tom Bell, a libertarian legal consultant and tech entrepreneur, to create a Freedom Cities Board that would be empowered to waive state and federal laws within the bounds of lands carved out to become Freedom Cities. Senator #MikeLee’s (R-UT) recently-introduced HOUSES Act, which would authorize the sale of federal public lands for housing development, has also been trumpeted by Freedom Cities promoters as a possible avenue to advance their agenda.

"It should come as no surprise that the Freedom Cities initiative has its roots in communist China, where the government created #SpecialEconomicZones (#SEZ) to attract foreign investment through deregulation and tax incentives. The most prominent of these is Shenzhen, created by Deng Xiaoping as the ultimate experiment of unregulated capitalism, a place with special tax breaks and incentives, fewer labor protections, and greater freedom from regulation than was prevalent in mainland China.

Nation’s largest fleet of police #Cybertrucks to patrol #LasVegas

By JESSICA HILL, November 2, 2025

LAS VEGAS (AP) — "The nation’s largest police fleet of #TeslaCybertrucks is set to begin patrolling the streets of Las Vegas in November thanks to a donation from a U.S. tech billionaire, raising concerns about the blurring of lines between public and private interests.

“ 'Welcome to the future of policing,' Clark County Sheriff #KevinMcMahill said during a recent press conference, surrounded by the Cybertrucks while #drones hovered overhead and a police helicopter circled above him.

"The fleet of 10 black-and-white Cybertrucks of the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department with flashing lights and sirens are wrapped with the police department’s logo. About 400 officers have been trained to operate the trucks that will use public charging stations.

"The all-electric vehicles are equipped with #shotguns, #shields and #ladders and additional battery capacity to better handle the demands of a police department, McMahill said.

"The donation has raised concerns from government oversight experts about private donors’ influence on public departments and the boost to the Tesla brand. The department is the latest U.S. city to turn to Tesla models even as Elon Musk ’s electric vehicle company has faced blowback because of his work earlier in the year to advance the president’s political agenda and downsize the federal government."

#AI Could Wipe Out the #WorkingClass

Senator #BernieSanders
Oct 7, 2025

"The artificial intelligence and robotics being developed by multi-#billionaires will allow corporate America to wipe out tens of millions of decent-paying jobs, cut labor costs and boost profits.

What happens to working class people who can’t find jobs because they don’t exist?"

#OpenAI and #Nvidia’s $100B AI plan will require power equal to 10 #nuclear reactors

By Benj Edwards, September 22, 2025

"On Monday, OpenAI and Nvidia jointly announced a letter of intent for a strategic partnership to deploy at least 10 gigawatts of Nvidia systems for OpenAI's AI infrastructure, with Nvidia planning to invest up to $100 billion as the systems roll out. The companies said the first gigawatt of Nvidia systems will come online in the second half of 2026 using Nvidia's Vera Rubin platform.

"Everything starts with compute," said Sam Altman, CEO of OpenAI, in the announcement. "Compute infrastructure will be the basis for the economy of the future, and we will utilize what we're building with NVIDIA to both create new AI breakthroughs and empower people and businesses with them at scale.""

They are evangelizing a religion that makes them piles of cash at the expense of everyone "below" them. Wait that sounds like most religions.

I'm hopeful that since AI is attacking the livelihoods of middle class people that maybe some brakes will be applied to the endless war on humanity of the the tech bros seeking to "disrupt".

AI art techbros are the same people who laughed at me for getting an art degree and routinely devalued and criticized art, but now see it as amazing because it’s something they see as immediately accessible and profitable. It compensates for their lack of imagination.

#TechBrosSuck #SupportArtists #Artist #Art #MyThoughts

Note: This is a topic I won’t spend time debating. Don’t try.

Something I’ve noticed about how certain groups treat artists in relevance to AI art, aside from some of the more horrific stuff:
This trend of people (the “audience”— mostly those advocating *for* AI art) feeling entitled to art. More specifically, entitled to the artist’s output, or “destination”, without having to think about the artist themselves or the “journey.” It’s almost as if they feel like they own the art more than the artist once it’s publicly accessible.

On one hand, I do think art should be shared and enjoyed, but ONLY at the behest and consent of the artist.

I’ve been making art all of my life and there have been pieces I’ve made that I’ve never shown anyone. I used to keep doodle journals as an outlet for my feelings. Some pieces or sketches I’ve done I’ve only shown to a small handful of people.

Those works were personal to me, some of them still exist, some of them don’t.

A lot of my characters, drawings, and paintings feel like a part of me; an extension of myself.

Like me, a lot of artists have some personal connection to their art or aspects of it. Art can often be an expression of who we are, what we’ve experienced, and can sometimes be used as an outlet for us.

I find it weird that there are people that think they *deserve* that sort of intimacy and imagination as a means to productize and commodify it. Art exists all around us— it influences literally every aspect of our lives, yet has a history of being equally revered and unappreciated.

I won’t speak for everyone, but in my experiences, artists like to share their original work when they feel safe, supported, and appreciated.

Let’s all make sure to we all make artists feel that way.
